Eloquent Utterances.

The Hon. Robert Toombs, of Georgia,
made an eloquent and able speech in
Atlanta, the other day, and concluded
with the following thrilling words:
"We sre going to triumph. Every
breeze that sweeps over the country bears
us the glad tidings of increasing power of
the Democratic party. We are going into
power. The Constitution demands it !;
the people demand it; Heaven gives it
its smile, and, tell you, fellow-citizens,
we are going into power. And when We
do succeed and provide the remedy for
all these evils, what shout of victory
will be heard all through this country |!
How will you feel if you are not along
with us2 How will you feel if you 60

peculiar nostrums to save the country 2
Oh, you will feel very badly. You will
feel mean. My good friends, abandon
your divisions. We have all had com.
mon sufferings; we have all had common
victories, and just as we are coming out
of our struggle, and just as the Demo-
cratic party is coming to power, don't
you abandon US. 1t is bad time to get
out of humor. Give the Democratic
party time. You cannot expect all the
evils inflicted by the Republican party
in eighteen years to be remedied in all
hour. You cannot expect man with q
long, trying disease to be cured in an
hour. Give this party time. l think l
understand the situation. tell you it
is going to bring relief. I tell you that
when you are few years older relief
will come. I tell you all these miserable
scars inflicted by the Republican party
will be rubbed out; / tell you the starved
will have bread and the naked will have
clothing. Every one of you will be the
citizen of q happy and prosperous nation
once more. This country is on the eve
of prosperity never before known, unless
some exceedingly great madness shall
seize upon her. I don't mind how. men

Let the soldiers talk, let them differ, but
don't let them break ranks.
II do not ask you to abandon any pc
culiar feeling you may have, while you
may indulge your views and convince as
many as you please that you are right.
All l say is, keep in RANKS; keep in step

1t is impossible for pen to picture or

PURITAN sOUEAL.
Gov. Rice Replies to Gov. Hampton

Governor Rice declines to put Cover
nor Hampton's letter, relative to the
Kimpton matter, upon files in the Exec
utive Department, and has forwarded the
following communication:
EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT.
Boston, September 30, 1878.
His Excellcncy, Wade Hampton, Cover
nor, Columbia, S. c.
SIR received, on Saturday last, an
extraordinary official communication,
addressed to me over your signature, the.
contents of which I had read in the
newspapers three days before. beg to
remind your Excellency that any at
tempted rebuke Of Massachusetts by
South Carolina for non-observance of
constitutional or statutory obligations is
refinement of sarcasm, which renders
any other defense Of the former State
unnecessary. The treatment Of the case
of Hiram 81. Kimpton by the authori-
ties of this Commonwealth was uninhu-
encecl by any personal or political con-
siderations. Massachusetts had no quar-
rel with South Carolina and no friendship
for Kimptou, but was bound to extend to
each their respective rights under the
laws. Every courtesy, official and per-
sonal, was extended to the representa-
tives of South Carolina. Unusual caro-
was bestowed upon their investigation
and consideration of the case, and its
decision was reached upon grounds of
perfect impartiality, in accordance with
law and facts and with convictions of
public duty. In communicating this
decision to your Excellency, my state
ment that the object of the requisition
did not appear to be for the purpose of
trying Kimpton for crime charged against
him, but for different purpose, was
simply recital of fact contained in the
report of the Attorney General, copy
of which was furnished with my letter
to you, and in his opinion and mine
clearly established by evidence. Your
Excellency's letter requires no argument
in reply. 1t is sufficient to say that it
contains statements to mislead the pub
lie, where facts are unknown. It's lam
guage and untirnely publication are
offensive and unjusti6able. I decline to
accept it or permit it placed upon the
files of the Executive Department of
this Commonwealth. 1t is herewith re-
turned. Your obedient servant,
ALEXANDER II. RICE,
Governor,

In THE WRONG BUGGY.-Last night
two buggies stopped near the Capitol
hotel and two gentlemen jumped out
simultaneously and went in the hotel,
leaving two ladies in their respective
buggies. One of the men came out in
advance of the other, and by the uncer-
tain light thrown from the hotel, was led
aside from the actual fact in the little
matter of getting in the right buggy; in
word, Mr.. j. got in and drove off with
Mrs. F., who were as totally unknown to
each other, so far as acquaintanceship is
concerned, as if one had died ten years
ago in Africa, and the other hadn't been
born. As married men often do, Mr.. j..
drove some distance before speaking.
Finally he remarked:
"PYe got corn on my toe-the one
you persist in putting your foot on, too
that hurts about as bad as the common
run of things usually do."
The lady was very much surprised, and
rather haughtily replied, you've been
trying to pick quarrel with me all day,
and now to make the matter more exas-
perating you change your voice to an
unnatural growl."
"Its you, madam, who have changed.
My voice is natural. l am not trying to
assume anything. You screech like an
old gate"
"You are an old fool"
"GiTe my teeth here; you shan't wear
them another minute"
"Teeth teeth! What in the world do
you mean?"
But just then, driving through a flood
of light, the parties recognized that they
didn't recognize. Madam" said Mr.. j.,
stopping the horse and Strengthening
himself up, 81 hope you will excuse me,
but I'd like to know how you came in
my buggy, and furthermore, I'd like a
little intelligence as regards the where
abouts of my wife, What have you done
with her, MADAME"
"I don't know what you mean, sir.
Get out of my buggy"
, .Y "Your buggy Why madam you are
eyes, and beside yourself, which fact
l dep'ore to such an extent that will be
forced to call the police. Police police" !"
was shouted Justify, and when Officer
Daily came to the spot the woman insis-
ted upon the mans arrest. The buggy
was driven back to the capitol just in
time 20 meet another buggy, the occu-
pants Of which had similar experience.

the other day, and was locked up in a

released, and after using all the persua-
sion that his young Imagination could
invent, proposed, "Now, if you'll let r1e

appeal was too much for the grocer to
stand out against.

WHY WOMEN CAN'T VoTE.-It's no
wonder women can't vote. It's no Won
der men fear to trust the ballot in the
hands of people who cannot manage
their own affairs. No person should be
allowed to vote who cannot dress without
the assistance of paper of pins. Now,
if mans tailor should send his suit
home in the fearfully incomplete an un-
finished state in which new dress reach
es its wearer, how quickly it would be
sent back, tied up in a bundle of "cuss
words" But woman receives her new
dress from the dress-maker's gladly, joy
fully, contentedly, and fills her mouth as
full of pins as it will hold before she
puts it on, knowing she will need every
one of them and more before the dress
is on. Oh woman, woman, if you only
knew how your husband hates the man
that makes pins.-Hawkeye.

- Idleness is the mother of vice, and
a boy who is allowed to grow up in idle
ness is pretty sure to be 8. vicious man.
The parents of such boys have fearful
responsibility resting upon them, when
they let their sons run about at late
hours of the night instead of keeping
them at home reading good newspapers
and books, and training them in moral
habits so as to become respectable men
instead of idlers, rum drinkers, gamblers
and loafers, which is sure to be the case
with the night runners and day idlers,
then the responsibility is increased. Give
the boys plenty to do, and you will pre-
serve their morals. Better q tired boy
than vitiated mind.

HITTING THE WRoNG AN.-The
following amusing incident occurred not
long since in UNCONVENTIONAL book
store, not thousand miles from Corn
hill, Boston:
Amusing it certainly was, though the
hero of tho occasion has not regained his
equanimity.
The clerks in this store had acquired
the habit of playing off tricks upon each
other--practical joking they called it
and one of the tricks was this: II any
of the clerks happened to see another in
a sitting posture, selecting books from
the lower shelves, he would seize board,
perhaps part of box cover, and smartly
spank the STOPPING victim.
Jerry P was one of the clerks, a
simple-minded, good-natured fellow from
Vermont, always ready and willing for
the hardest kind of work, and priced by
his employers accordingly.
Jerry had been the chief victim Of the
spanking process, and be was determined
upon revenge-not with maleyolence, nor
yet With Indignation, but simply in the
way of fair play. To this end he lay
low, watching an opportunity.
Oae afternoon upon returning to the
store from an errand, the longed-for op.
portunity seemed to present itself, and
Jerry seized it instenter.
AT the far end of the long counter he
saw an individual overhaulipg books on
the very bottom shelf, his body bent at a
most tempting angle.
Jerry was sure it was Tom s., from
whose hands he had received many an
emphatic spank, and now was the time
to pay off old scores.
So he selected splendid board and
creeping noiselessly along to the spot, he
gave the STOPPING man a blow that
sounded through the store like the burst
ing of retort, and brought him to an
erect position like Jack in the box.
Here was fix. Tom s., at the
sound of the blow, appeared from an
other part of the store, while the gentle
man who had been struck stood in utter
bewilderment, rubbing away at the aflic-
ted part most assiduously; and poor Jerry
then discovered to his dismay and deep
regret, that he had struck his employers
parson, the Rev. Or. B, who had
been curiously searching among lot of
old Greek and Hebrew books.
Jerry wept with shame and confusion,
was forgiven; and from that that partic-
ular species of amusement was discon-
tinued in the store.

Extra Liability to Malarial Infection.

Persons whose blood is thin, digestion
weak and liver sluggish, are extra-liable to
the attacks of malarial disease. The most
triAing exposure may, under such condi-
tions, infect system which, if healthy,
would resist the miasmatic taint. The only
way to secure immunity from malaria in
localities where it is prevail lent, is to tone
and regulate the system by improving
weakened digestion, enriching the blood,
and giving Wholesome impetus to hillary
secretion. These results are accomplished
by nothing so effectively as Hostctter's
Stomach Bitters, which long experience has
proved to be the most reliable safeguard
against fever and ague and kindl cd disor-
ders, as we'll es the best remedy for them.
The Bitters are, moreover, oil excellent i'll
vigorant of the organs Of urination, and an
active dcpurent, eliminating from the blood
those acrid impurities which originate
rheumatic ailments.

last spring to Hampton Institute, at
Hampton Roads, Va, are said to be do
