Gov. Hampton Assailed.

In referring to speech made by
Gov. Hampton, of South Caro-
lima, in which that gentleman SAID
"if an independent makes us run
the risk of loosing the State or
country, he is the worst enemy OF
South Carolina" tie Okolona States
uses the following wild and rldlcu-
lous language:
s'Us.r in this case, means Wade Hamp-
ton, who wants to be governor of South
Cao'ina again--Wade Hampton, VINO
traded off Tilden for Hayes-WadeH Hamp-
ton, who cringes at the feet of the freed
men for their votes-Wade Hampton, who
is a blacker Radical to-day, than the
blackest in the North. He may well
turn pale and tremble when he hears OF a
counter movement tu couuteract the po-
litical villainy by which he has corrupted
the politics OF his proud, old State. The
"Bourbons,' as he sneeringly calls them
have little bill To settle with him III the
near future, aud they will settle il to the
last dime, and demand interest into the
bargain.
Fire-cating expressions like the
above are not endorsed by Il dozen
men in the State, and it is pity
that any editor with the sense ol
Col. Harper would allow such sent
iments to be promulgated through
his paper. They find no lodgment
i'm the heart of the true Southroli,
and deserve to be frowned down.

Sheep-KillinS Dogs.

We have read a statement some
where to the effect that dogs can be
broken of their love Of fresh NUT
ton in the following manner:
Wrap a narrow strip OF sheepskln
one that has considerable ann
ouut of wool on it around the
dogs lower jaw, the wool outwards,
and tasten it so that he cannot get
rid of it. BY putting this on him II
few times, it is said that he becomes
so thoroughly disgusted with every
thing that wears wool that he VIII
run and hide at its approach.
Another way we have heard to
be perfect cure. Tie the dog on
the spot where the remains OF the
slaughtered sheep lie; then intro
duce to his acquaintance a savage
old ram. The acquaintance Will
not prove satisfactory to the dog
and lie will give all wool-bearlng
animals u wide berth thereafter.
Now we must not be understood
as recommending either OF tho
above named methods; though we
think the second one might prove
succestul--if the old ram was al
lowed ample time and not interfer.
ed with. We give them for what
they are worth.
We believe it impossible to cure
dog OF sheep-killing habits, after
he once tasted blood. He will in
dulge the habit and show great
cunning in hiding his crime. Once
found guilty of sheep murder, no
matter how valuable lie may be,
his owner cannot afford to keep
him, and the property of nrighbors,
for miles away, becomes unsafe.
We would administer a strych-
nine powder, 80 calibre pill, or
amputate his caudal extremity,
lust in the rear of his auricnlar ap-
pendages. These are rellablecure

A FLORIDA SENSATION.
A CONFESSION OF THE FRAUDS BY
WHICH FLORIDA WAS CAR
RIED FOR HAYES.

Jacksonville, April 23.-The daily
San and Press announces that Me
Lin, secretary of State under
Stearns, and s. G.. Dennis, the lit
tie giant OF Alachua county, have
made confessions in writing OF
frauds in 1876, by which Florida
was carried for Hayes. Dennis
covers fully all the details of the
Archer precinct frauds, which play
ed so important Il part before the
returning board. He says 2l4
names were put on the returns OF
Archer after the voting.
McLin's confession is said to
cover all transactions before the
State canvassing boards. These
confessions are in the hands of the
present secretary OF State, BloX-
ham. and have been forwarded TO
Washington. After Dennis made
the confession, II indictments
against Kim for fraud in Alachua
and Levy counties were nolle pro-
seoui. McLin, it is said, was re-
wardea, but how Is not known.
The daily San and Press, to-mor-
row morning, will close an edito-
rial as follows: "These gents have
unbosomed themselves and their
written statements have gone to
Washington. The Archer fraud is
fully developed, and the little
crookedness in Baker is laid bare,
and also the secrets of the State
canvassing board, at Tallahassee"

BY JOHN VANCE CHENEY.


When beeches brighten early May,
. And young grass shines along her way I;
When April willows meet the breeze
Like softcst dawn among the trees;
when smell of Spring fills all the air,
And meadows bloom, and blue birds pair;
When Love first bares her sunny head
Over the brook aud lily-bed;
Nothing of sound or sight to grieve
From choiring morn to quiet eve,-
My heart will not, for all its case,
Forget the days to follow these.
This loveliness shall he betrayed,
This happicst of music played
From field to field, by stream and bough,
Shall silent be as tunetul now,
The silver launch of thistles sail
Adown the solitary vale:
That blne solicitude of sky
Bent over beauty doomed to die,
With Rightly mist shall witness here
The yielded glory Of the year.

The Silent Captain.

StOneWali d" JackSOns troops
and his enemies believed he never
slept; the fact is, he slept a great
deal When he had nothing else
to do he went to sleep, especially in
church. remember during the in
vasion of Maryland on Sunday
night he rode three miles in an am
bulance to attend church in Fred
erick, and then fell asleep as soon
as the minister began to preach
his, head fell upon his breast and
he never awoke until aroused
by the organ and choir. He could
sleep anywhere and in amy position,
sitting in his chair, under fire, or
on horseback. On II night march
toward Richmond, after the battles
with Mcclellan, he was riding along
with his drowsy staff, nodding and
sleeping as he went. We passed
by groups of men sitting along the
roadside and engaged III roasting
new corn by fires made of fence
rails. One group took us for caral-
rymen, with an inebriated captain,
and one of the party, delighted at
the sight of IA man who had found
whisky enough to get drunk, sprang
up from the fire, and, brandishlng
roasting ear in his hand, leaped
down into the road, and, seizing
the generals horse cried out, j
say, old fellow, where the devil did
You get your liquorW In an in
stant, as the general awokc, the
fellow saw his mistake; and then,
bounding from the road, he took the
fence at a single leap, eXcIalmlng,

He gave to sleep many moments
which other men would have given

laughed. He never told a Joke,
but did not discourage them Ill
others, and if one struck his pecu.
liar fancy he would smile i'll mild
approval. He did not live apart
from his staff, but liked to have
them about him, and they were
nearly all very young men. I'm
versally polite i'll manner, he EN-
coura ged the liveliest conversation
among them, although he took lit

OF words; they seemed to embarrass
him. When he had IDEAS he pul

His military dispatches were a
brief as if studied, like the one h'
sent af the defeat of Milroy : 'Go'
blessed our arms with victory a
Mcdowell yesterday" He neve
discussed his plans; indeed he neV
er told them. The next officer III
der him never knew his lntentio
nor object. He never volunteered
his opinion to his superior nor ask

was as self-reliant as he WAS silent
and believed "he walked wit

one of his sayings. This reticenc
often led to embarrassment an'
