The South Is Marching On.

lOkolona (MiSs.) Southern States
The Yankee crusade OF lsGl-'G5 was unsucceSs-
fl In grating the hcresy Of CGntrnlsm upon our
Government. The principle Of States Rights was
neither destroyed nor diminished by the swords of
the Satanic hosts that Oyerrun our plantations
laid waste our cities, and sent legion Of glorious
COnfederates TO the grave, And what IL moro the
principle of States Rights Will rule the Republic yet.
The South Is marching on
Mark that
The future belongs to US and ours. Davis and
his Cabinet and his soldiers will rank with the
Pantheon of History while Grant aud his horde of
bloody hirelings wlll be cassed with the Vandals
GOths, and Huns.
SEARCHING will discover all things; and to dis.
cover as well remove impurities Of the blood the
best blood searcher is DR.. Bulls Blood Mixture.

CREMATION would not be n reprchensible
custom in any sense in the yellow fever sec

from consuming bodies might, with proper
chemical preparation be made to serve the
purpose of disinfectnnts in the atmosphere.

The Republican party is just beginning
to appreciate the size of the fight it has on
its hands. Its partisan discipline has been
shocked, but not altogether destroyed, by
the -pamby civi!-scrvicc nonsense of
the hour. 1t can rally, however, and will
in time to recover ITS lost ground. The
October elections will tell the story.

IT is not improbable that the inconve-
nient rainy spell" we are now experience
ing hcreabouts is the immediate ollshoot of
the cold weather early this week west of
the Mississippi which developed itself in
the valley of that river in the form of So
called polar waves, reducing the tempera-
ture of the atmosphere in st. Louis and
other points many degrees. It can do no
harm so long as it brings cooler weather,
and if the humidity of this region is not ex-
tended southwark it may serve to check
the progress of the yellow fever epidemic.

IT seems to us that the President had better
make speech in Maine.-NeT York Mail
We regard this remark OF the Nda rs ex-
ccssively cruel and untimely. In view of
the fact that when the President entered
upon the duties of his distinguished posi-
ton he at once cloistercd himself, his Cab
met, and his subordinates in the Govern
ment in the monastery of ciyil-service re-
form, we regard such levity on the part OF
the NaH as highly reprehensible. Now,
that the Republican party is gathering the
legitimate fruits of civil service wherever
elections are being held, and the President
begins to see the consequences of his pccu-
liar policy, it borders on blrbarsm to thrust
jccrs and jibeS in his face in this hour OF
unftigned grief. To challenge him to make
speech in Maine, now that the mischief
has been done, is only paralclled by the op-
pressivc acts OF the enemies of the people Of
Israel while in captivity, and when it was
required of them that they should sing
songs in strange land. The NGH should
suppress its levity upon this solemn occa-
sion. y Democratic House means the dis
placement sof President HAYES, and Maine
has done its share toward such u result.
