Anauins Anderson Again

J. R. Sypher, whom Anderson charges
in his affidavit az having imposed on
him along with Il. &. Weber. in the
Sherman Weber-Anderson letter, makes
a statement in Philadelphia, in which
he says that the only truth in the aft.
davit is where Anderson said that he did
not receive any money for his evidence
before the Potter committee. The rest
Mr.. Sypher denies emphatically. John
II. Maddox publishes a card in Wash
ington, denying the statements of An
derson as to himself, aAd expressing
the belief that they were false as to
others. He says he never saw K. l..
Weber to know him till the day he tes-
tilted, and don't know J. R. Sypher by
sight, and knows nothing Of his reia-
tions with Anderson, except what ALI
derscn himself told him in conversation
last fall, which began and ended his
personal intercourse with Anderson.
MIR. Gibson, the correspondent referred
to by Anderson in his affidavit, also
denies the statements as 10 himself,
and says he refused to ente. tain any
propositions to buy his silence.
The Marie Rose Concert.

be said to have attained degree Of ia.
vor here, perhaps less than her merits
should receive, but at any rate greater
than most artists can hope to reach at-
ter their first appearance in this city.
Nothing is better established as a fact
than that the need Of popularity in
Boston cannot be gained at once. Bos-
ton audiences are slow to become EN-
thusiastic over any singer, hut, once

.sAil Saints Day"
This festival has been observed in the
Christian Church for nearly 1900 years.
1t owes its origin to the conversion OF
the heathen Pantheon into 4 Christian
Church. In its proper observance, in the
study and contemplation Of the faith
and virtues of apostles, prophets, mar,
tyrs and all the holy men and women,
who have followed the Master in their
lives, the christian is prompted and
strengthsd to the performance If noble
and heroic duties and sacrifices for his
fsllowmen. Holy days rightly used are
as tonics in bracing the willing christian

The gentleman who sent US this

says Maj. PettibOne made one of
his finest arguments. From our
acquaintance with the editor of the

knowingly publish a falsehoOd, but
he ought to give the source of his
information. 1t is a stupid, mali
cious falsehood, without any founda-

illustrates the canvass being made
against Maj. Pettibone. Such
things are calculated to disgust
every man who has any character
for common decency or even com

THE DODGING DEMOCRACY

Col. John H. Savage has accept
ed call from large number of his
friends, to become candidate for
the State Senate. In his letter of
acceptance he says: If the State
bonds are settled at a figure above
333, the people will consider them>
selves betrayed. We must give
Col. Savage credit for candor if
nothing else, which is more than we
can do for majority of the Demo
cratic leaders in Tennessee. There
is not a Democratic newspaper in
the State that is brave enough, or
frank enough to take an un~
eqrivocal position on the State
debt question. Judge Marks,
the Democratic nominee for
Governor has studiously avoided
committing hinself to any policy
on that subject. No Democratic
politician of any prominence has
had the courage, since the canvass
opened, TO express his views ON the
payment of the State debt. This
is a sweeping statement, but never>
theless a true one. If it is not, we
would be pleased to have some one
of our Democratic friends set us
right.
Here we have one Of the most
important questions with which our
people have ever dealt. 1t
is one that involves our
good name and material
welfare; and yet the party in
power, with boasted majority of
forty thousand, is too cowardly or
too dishonest to take a position upon
it. East Temnesseeans, whose record
on this question is an honorable one,
see to it that no man is elected to
represent you in the Legislature
who refuses to speak out on this
important matter. Be sure that
you know the views of candidates,
and then vote for no man who will
misropresent you.

THE ELECTION IN SOUTH CAR.
OLINA A FARCE.

The most reliable information
from South Carolina makes it con-
elusive that the election in that State
is a miserable farce. Hampton 8
legions are mustered to prevent any
thing like a fair expression of the
will of the people at the ballot box.
The Republicans can not hold a
political meeting except in the pres
ence of organized and uniformed
rife clubs. The red-shirt" gangs
are running the canvass peaceably if
they can, if not peaceably, then
forcibly. At least three of the
Congressional Districts in that State
are Republican by large majorities,
but we do not expect to see a single
Republican elected to Congress from
South Carolina. Cancellation has
not conciliated. The people are
not free to act for themselves. Free
discussion and free voting is not
allowed, The government of South
Carolina is Republican in name
only. We regret the existing state
of affairs there, but can not close
our eyes to facts, even though they
be unpleasant ones.

accurate report he has given of its pro-
ceedings. L am sure the entire body

A SUBSTANTIAL BODY OF MEN,
1t can be said with truth that the
members composing this Conference
are a substantial and efficient BODY of
men-men who have performed their
work with fidelity and acceptability
TO the Church. Some OF them have
had hard time of il the past year,
laboring on hard circuits and receiving
little or no pay. Aud let me remark
here that there are, perhaps, few min
listers in this world of any denomina
ton who work for as meager compen-
satiOn as Methodist clergy
men. know Of one minister

HARMONY PREVAILS.

Thus far the utmost harmony and
brotherly feeling has characterized the
proceedings of the Conference. 1t
will continue, no doubt. As in all de-
Lucrative assemblies, so in this, there
are few men who mOnopoliZe most
of the discussion. Perhaps it can't be
remedied. Some, who are capable Of
talking, are too modest and timid to
do so, whilst the other class have Of
necessity, reckon, acquired the habit
of " much speakingo Somebody must
do the talking; but wonId it not be
good idea for some Of the
silent brethren to break She ICE and
let as hear from them?

Such is the
AGGRESSIVE POWER
OF MethOdism in all parts OF the
world. 1t pushes, it forces. where
ever there are human beings, no
matter whether the pay comes or
not. "The people must have the
Gospel, pay or no pay" is its distinct
i've motto. Guided by this sublime
and self-sacrificing principle, it sends
forth its ambassadors into every dark
place ia the land; into every nook
and corner of the country; into the
mountains and mountain gOrges and
everywhere the stentOrian voice of the
circuit rider" ia heard prOclaiming
the "glad tidipgs." You have some
idea of the nature of the
territory embraced in the HQlston
Conference. There are, to be sure,
number of good circuits and cOmforta-
BILE stations, but q large proportion OF
the circuits are rough, sparsely pOpu-
lated and the membership Of the
Church poor. Still the Gospel is car
ried TO them and proclaimed to them
by a noble band of veterans" who
never complained of their 'lotn nor
censuTe the authorities " for sending
them thither.
BISHOP KAVANAUGH.
An eminent physician Of this city,
and not communicate OF the Method
ist Church, remarked 10 your cor
respondent the other day that Bishop
Kayanaugh was one Of the gTandest
of American preachers. A worthy
and deserved compliment. There
are few pulpit orators on this
continent superior to him. At times
he ascends to a height in captivating
and OverpOwering eioquence seldom
reached by our brig htest stars in the
pulpit. In labors, he is abundant. far
more 80 than is supposed. Methodist
Bishops have no time to play. Think
of this aged man travelling from
Virginia to the Pacific slope! This
week in Tennessee, then in Florida,
and finally in California
THE HORSE BRIGADE.
1t looked strange to see so many of
the ministers coming to Conference on
horseback. Most of the Western
North Carolina preach ers reached this
city by this I" old time" mode of con-
veyance. The Iron horse was a
little too much for their depleted
purses to mount, aud hence they stuck
TO their ever faithful steeds that
had borne them over their circuits the
past year. Their horses looked tired
and jaded and seemed to say, LET us
have rest :" Who blaInes a Metho-
dist preacher for loving his faithful
horse .
