CAY One dark night recently three men,
who dwell near Caseyville, ON the Ken
tucky side of the Ohio, started to go over
the river in a skiff that had been lying
against the bank for some days. The
oarsman pulled vigorously for the other
shore. When about sixty yards from the
bank the man in the bow heard the hiss
of rattlesnake in the boat In flash
the oars we're stopped and all sat listening,
and not sound was heard. The skif
was pulled across to Caseyvllle, and there
the man at the stern sprang into the
water, afraid to go through the boat.
Procuring lantern at the hotel they went
down to examine the boat, and found
rattlesnake with eleven rattles coiled
under the oarsman's seat.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 4.-Itis care

Democrats that the Potter Commit

Their money is all gone, not enough
left to pay the street car fare of a

it is the intention to call upon them
for itemized accounts, which are not
intended for public exhibition.
Leading Democrats to-day re-

unnum Circuit Judges and Chancel-
lors from twenty-five hundred to
eighteen hundred dollars; to repeal
the law allowing the Adjutant
General of the State a salary of
eighteen hundred dollars; to repeal
the law allowing the Comptroller a
clerk with salary of twelve hun
dred dollars; to repeal the law
allowing the Secretary of State a
salary of twelve hundred; to repeal
the law allowing a Superintendent

twelve thousand dollars per

pensation of the State Librarian
from one thousand to six hundred
dollars, and the salary of the Su-
perintendent of Public Instruction
from three thousand to eighteen
hundred dollars per annum. These
are some of the reforms he proposes,
and he has just cleyerly begun.
Furthermore, he proposes
to look after the compen-

provide that the emoluments of
Supreme Court clerks, Chancery
Court clerks, Criminal Court
clerks and County Court clerks, in
GLIDING fees, commissions. whether
as receivers or trustees, or anything
else, shall not exceed two thousand

poses also to reduce the salary of

said nothing about a reduction of

The following is a Washington
special to the Cincinnati CONNER
cta7:
The President denies having
changed his Southern policy in essen
tisl features. He says that he never
adopted any policy. Southern or other
wise, that contem plated allowing the
laws to be trampled under foot. He
feels as kindly toward the Southern
people as ever, and regrets that the
condition of matters in two States
made it necessary for him to use even
the mild language he did. He cred
its Hampton and Nichols with good
intentions in trying TO carry out their
pledges, but thinks they have a
ruffiAnly element To deal with. His
views are very charitable, and South
ern men are taking back some OF the
hasty observations they made when
they read the Southern clause in his
message. Prominent Louisiana Dem
ocrats here say that Nichols is in
earnest in attempting to put down
aud that lot of murder
ers, a zen or two, will be hung
shortly TO show that the authorities
are in earnest.

THE editor of the Courier
Journal is evidently not impressed
with the newspaper as a medium
through which to furnish the world
with poetry. Why he confines
himself to the poetry of females
we are unable to tell. He says:
Why do women persist it writing
poetry Ia not the sex sufficiently
cruel without this terrible weapon =?
And as long as they are determined to
write ii, why don't they put IL into the
proper measure? WHAT makes them
think that the daily newspaper-a
coarse, dali record OF matters of fact
has space for poems ? What makes
them think the hurried worker on the

There is the magazine editor. He has
plenty OF time, and ne likes verses.
They are part of the food
of his vast brain. He has a
whole month TO real and epj0y

his magazine it goes tn every State in
the Union, giving the author a ma
tional reputation, or the beginning of
national reputation at once. a

five States, perhaps, and Is read by
persons who do not yearn--at least not

On the 4th of December next
Thomas Carlyle will complete his
SD year, aud although he has aged
visibly in the last Is months, it
may be hoped that he will yet sur
vive long enough to witness the
ful6llment of his famous prediction
respecting "the unspeakable Turk. -
That a man who was born when
Napoleon was still a young Repub-
lican General, and who correspondent
with Goethe in 1925, should still be
living and working among US,
after all his manifold labors, is a
sufficiently noteworthy fact, and
doubly so inasmuch as the majority
of his most famous contemporaries
were cut off in their prime Byron
died in 1924, at the age of SO.
Shelly, whose health had already
begun to fail before his life was cut
short by drowning, compressed his
whole career into the brief space
between 1I92 and 1SZ2. Henry
Kirke White succumbed to the
pressure of over-work in 1906, at
the age of p. Keats died in his
25th year, early in 1921. Ed
ward Irving, Carlyle's most famous
fellow-townsman, barely reached IL.
1t is true that this fatal rule had
several striking exceptions, Scott,
despite his superhuman labors, saw
his 61st year. Moore died just be-
fore the outbreak of the Crimean
war, at the age of IS. Coleridge
lived to 60, Southey to 6J, Woods
worth to 80; but, on the other
hand, MackWorth Praed died at the
age of 81, and Lord Castlereagh,
when barely turned of so, and in
the zenith of his renown, put an
end to his own life.

THE NEW ISSUES.

By a recent decision of the Su-
preme Court of the United States,
the people of Tennessee are COM
PEELED to pay what is known as
the "new issue" of the Bank of
Tennessee, or notes issued by that
bank after 1861, in aid of the re-
rebellion. 1t is not our province
to find fault with the decision of the
courts. They must be respected and
Obeyed. But the real facts were
never before the court in this case. If
they had been the result would have
been different. Whatever other al
legations may have been made, the
people of Tennessee know that
these notes were issued, either d.
rectly or indirectly, in aid of the
rebellion. It may have been hard to
make the proof, but still, We believe
that no we'll informed person doubts
the truth of this statement. 1t is an
outrage upon the people of the
State, but it is cOnsummated and
we will have to submit. There is
no help for it now. The people of
the State would feel better satisfied,
if they knew that proper efforts had
been made to bring all the facts be-
fore the courts.
The benefits arising from this de
cision Of the courts will accrue to
a small ring of capitalists, number
ing not exceeding a dozen men.
They have bought up the notes at
from ten cents on the dollar up to
twenty-five, and under this decision
they will make an immense profit,
while the vast body of taxpayers
in the State must foot the bill.
The amount of the new issue
notes Is variously estimated at
from 100000 to 100000. 1t is
mere guess work. They may reach
a much higher figure. When they
were issued, business was done in
a loose, irregular manner,
and the number of notes
issued was limited only by the
quantity of printed paper on hands.
At any rate, whatever the amount
may be, it is just so much added to
the State debt, and will, We fear, be
seized upon by repudiatiOnists in
furtherance of their UNANIMOUSLY dis
honest schemes. This additional
debt is a part of the price We pay
for the luxury of a Democratic
State Government. The Democratic
party of the State squandered the
assets of the Bank of Ten
nessee, recklessly issued notes
that ought never to have been
issued, issued them in support of
the rebellion, and now Demo
cratic administration has suffered |
the courts to decide upon their
validity without sufficient proof.
The result is, the people must pay
them and a few spectators grow
rich. Words are inadequate to
express the true character of the
outrage.

Antique Errors.

IN this enlightened age and land, find accept
ance only with the prejudiced ana ignorant.
IL Is impossible, for instance, TO persuade any
large proportion of people who have imbibed
their ideas OF lgic in common schools and free
academies, that it is exuedient TO cram their
systems with mercury, rasp Their bowels with
coycinth and Jalap, or Supply their brains
with opiates, when pure, effective, safe, bot
anic cordial like Hostetter's Stomach Bittsrs,
which reieaveS every disorder for which the
poisonous drugs have been heretofore pre-
scribed, is within the reach of every one. Old
fashioned remedies are rapidly giving ground
before the advance of this conquering specific,
ana OLD fashioned IDEAS In regard 10 depleGlOn
a means of cure have been quite exploded
by the success of the great renOvant, which
tones the system, tranquilizes the nerves, in
purates and enriches the blood, rouses the
liver when dormant, and promotes regular
habit of body.
