WASHINGTON, Jan. 11.-Not-
withstanding the warning offered
by the death of his colleagues, a
Democratic member from a South>
ern State was seen this morning reel
ing up Pennsylvania avenue SO
drunk that he had to inquire the
way to the Capitol. He was taken
in charge by friends and impris-
oned in his room until he could be-
come sober. He was met by
party of delegates to the Woman
Suffrage Convention, now in session
here, and his condition furnished an
illustration for the argument that
men are not fitted to govern the
country.

IT.. DAILY CHRONICLE, and
Weekly WING AND CHRONICLE,
will be kept up during the year
1879 TO their usual high standard.
By enterprise, accurateness, and
close attention to the wants of our
readers, we hope to merit contln-

heretofore extended these journals.
Nearly nine years ago, when
there was not Republican daily in
the State, and only two or three in
the South, we commenced the pub
LEGATION of the CHRONICLE. In all
these years we have battled for Re-
publican principles, and see no
reason to change our course now.
Hence we shall continue to publish
truthful, reliable Republican
journal, not the organ of any man
or clique, but the outspoken and
fearless advocate of principles,
measures and men, best calculated
to promote the welfare of the
country and the Republican party.
We will endeavor to make our
agricultural columns worth more to
farmers than our subscription price.
AS newspaper our publications
shall not be excelled in the State.
In addition to our telegraphic dis
patches from all parts of the world,
our readers shall have the benefit of
correspondence and every other
means through which reliable infor-
nation is obtained,
Each number of the paper will
contain selections made with special
reference to the home circle. We
will continue to avoid everything
calculated to contaminate, and will
publish paper that may be taken
without question within the sacred
precints of the family circle.
Our market reports shall have
close attention, and be made entire
ly correct and reliable.
We call upon all persons inter
ested in the publication of our in
dependent, fearless, reliable Repub
lican journal to come to our aid and
assist in extending the circulation
of the DAILY CHRONICLE and
WEEKLY WHIG AND CHRONICLE.
In view of the financial pressure.

MY FIRST VISIT TO HoLLYWELL.

DIR. FRANKLIN's NARRATIVE CONTINUED
MY FIRST VISIT TO HoLLYwELL.
Several days passed without anything
taking place that was worthy of note. At
last, one morning, the idea occurred to me to
ride over to Holywell, to see how matters
were progressing there. I did not often visit
my halfbrother's; but of course was bound
to make wedding call, and this, above and
beyond the interest felt in Fanny's welfare,
impelled me to put my idea into execution
at once. I, therefore, mounted my gray mare
and set off.
1t was an easy ride of three miles, and in
half an hour was at my destination. Phil
ip Tracy was coming through the gate with
his gun and game pouch, and stopped to greet
me as allghted.
"Good day to you, brother" he said, in his
off hand way, Che was always very civil to
me.) 81 suppose your visit is intended for
our bride?'

Two YEARS ON HoRsEBAoK.-Mr. Henry
Tudor started from New York on Wednesday
night with the avowed intention of riding on
horseback all the way from that city to Pun
ia Arenas, the most southerly point Of Pata-
gonia, South America. He takes with him,
as attendant, young man who will, no doubt,
help him to pass the time as pleasantly as
possible, he being an accomplished song and
dance genius. Mr.. Tudor is impressed with
the idea that by going through the several
republics of Central and South America, and
ascertaining what articles of American manu-
facture can be introduced with profit, large
trade may be established. He is going to
visit every town of Importance along the
route Mr.. Tudor will pass through Phila-
delphia, from that city to Washington via
Baltimore, to Richmond, thence to Mobile, to
Brownsville, San Luis Potosi, City of Mexico.
Here they will deliberate as to the next
move, and will be guided altogether by the
state of the roads. Anyhow, an effort will
be made to reach Guatemala by travelling
along the Pacific coast as near as possible. It
is expected the journey to Punta Arenas will
occupy two years.

quiet, gentlemanly student, who has studied
both the old world and the new, and repre-
sents in Congress to-day the very best type
of Southern culture.
Senator Butler doubtless thinks about all
the ISLANDERS that have been published con-
cerning him, as does a certain noted senator,
who, in discussing statement made against
his character in the newspapers, said: IL
never pay any attention to any lie that is
published concerning me. 1t is when the
papers get to telling the truth about me that
I shall have anything to say. The moment
the truth is published concerning me, you will
see me rising to a personal explanation at
once"
was talking with Senator Butler the other
day about the popular impression concerning
him in the North, when he said that he did
not think that the people of the North had
ever read his real record, and thatit was to be
found in the proceedings of the South Caroli-
ma Legislature since the war. As long ago
as 1866, he saw the folly of contesting any of
the reconstruction acts of legislation proposed
by Congress He proposed, in 1866, that
South Carolina should herself pass laws Sc
curing to the negroes political rights equal to
those of the whites. He thought then, that
such policy upon the part Of the South, hon
estly carried out, would have had the effect
to have softened the hostile feelings in the
North and made it absolutely impossible for
the corrupt gangs who so long plundered the
South after the war to have secured control
of the state governments that they did. By
blind strange fatality that showed that the
South was not yet to be released from punish
ment, counter policy was pursued. The
black code that was passed by the State
of South Carolina, was one of the first fatal
blunders of policy. Senator Butler was one
of the fifteen wiser heads in the Legislature
who voted against this black code. For a
long time, on account of that vote and the
stand he took with it, Butler was one Of the
most unpopular men in South Carolina but
he was content to wait his time. He felt that
to be the true policy, and when the more pro-
gressive men came to the front, he had his re-
ward by q return to popularity.

The Sort OF GIRL TO GEr.-The true
girl has to be sought for. She does not pa
rade herself as show goods. She is not fash
ionable. Generally, she is not rich. But,
oh! what heart she has when you find her !
so large and pure and womanly. When you
see it you wonder if those snowy things out
side were women. If you gain her love your
two thousand are millions. She'll not ask
you for a carriage or frst-class house.
She'll wear simple dresses, and turn them
when necessary, with no vulgar magni6cat to
frown upon her economy. She'll keep every.
thing neat and nice in your sky parlor, and
give you such welcome when you come
home that you'll think your parlor higher
than ever. She'll entertain true friends on
dollar, and astonish you with the new thought
how little happiness depends on money. She'll
make you love home (if you don't you're
brute, and teach you how to pity, while you
scorn poor, fashionable society that thinks
itself rich, and vainly tries to think itself
happy.
Now, do not, pray you, say any more, IL
can't afford to marry" Go, find the true
woman, and you can. Throw away that cigar,
burn up that switch cane, be sensible your
self, and seek your wife in sensible way

COMANCHE PECULIARITIES.

An American who has been studying tne
life, habits and traits of the Comanches thinks
there are at present from ten to twelve thous'
and, of whom about twenty-five hundred are
warriors. Wholly nomadic, they have no
villages or fixed habitations, but roam and
plunder eight to nine hundred miles from
north to south and seven hundred from east
to west. They own large herds of horses and
mules, obtaining horned cattle only for their
immediate wants, because they cannot drive
these as fast as they want to move. All their
animals are procured by robbing the Mexl-
cans and Americans, and all their wars are
undertaken more for plunder of this sort than
for any other purpose. They never take men
prisoners, though they kill and scalp them;
but they carry off women and children
make wives of the former, and rear the latter
as their own. They have never had any per-
manent places of abode, as the absence OF all
mounds or tumuli in the territory they range
over clearly proves. They seem to have been
born on horseback, where they do all their
fighting, and in attacking trains they always
endeavor to stampede the animals by cries
and war.whoops-a stampede rendering dss.
truction of train almost certain. If they
attack village, they kill everybody they en-
counter, and then drive off the stock. The
Chiefs of these Indians do not inherit their
authority, but acquire it by superior knowl-
edge, personal bravery, or success in war.
Any social disagreement is adjusted by
council of Chiefs and Seniors of the lodges;
but these disagreements are few, and family
feuds are rare. Indeed, they live together
more harmoniously than many civilized peo-
pie do. Of law they have no notion, nor
have they any conception Of national policy.
They never observe treaties any longer than
selfinterest prompts, in which they resemble
most enlightened people. Their religious
ideas are very crude and indefinite. In an
evil spirit they do not believe, but ascribe
both good and evil to the good spirit Their
conception of future life is indistinct; but
they hold that men who have stolen the most
horses and taken the most scalps, will have
the best chance of happy hunting. grounds in
another world. Fire is sacred with them, and
used in all their religious observances. Ties
of kindred are very strong, and extend not
only to relatives by blood, but by marriage.
Offences against any member Of family are
avenged by all or any one connected with it.
They are polygamists, some Chiefs having
ten or twelve wives Infdelity on the part
of wife is punished by cutting off the nose,
and the seducer is obliged to give up his avail
able property to the injured woman. The
husband exercises absolute dominion over the
wife, who does all the work while he fights
and steals. Going into fight, they divest
themselves of every thing except breech'
cloth and leggings They call themselves
Natini, meaning live, or firstalive people.
