Southern Sentiment

They treat the Northefa people courteously
and even cordially if called upon at their

Northern inventions and discoveries A notable
exception to this general rule is the warm and

They, our hearts best treasures, be buried here,
And, If we would, we cannot repress the tear
Nor for these alone do the bitter drops fall,
But for many who went at our country's call

Where naught but mound their resting place tells ;
And the mock birds song is their only dirge,
Or the mournful dashings of the ocean surge

the owner of the animal came for
ward and apologized for the rude
manner and harsh expressions used
by bis mule toward the very large
and respectable audience of adopt
ed fellow. citizens-both ladies and
gentlemen. He thanked them on
behalf of bis long-eared property,
for their indulgence of his plain
talk. reminding them that freedom
of speech within the bounds of Ii
cense was one of the bulwarks of
American liberty. He also advised
the audience that the mule did not
comprehend within the criticism
any order.loving and law abiding
citizen, of either foreign or native
birth, and did not exempt from
caustic denunciation any idle good
for-nothing, worthless human ass,
whether native or foreign born ;
that his mule, having retired from
politics, did not desire their votes,
nor require any of their small ad.

tered the harbor Of Antofagasta, which is the
seaport Of the disputed territory. They land.
| ed 800 soldiers, who soon took-possession,
not only Of the town but of the saltpetre
works and the silver mines, about one hur-
dred and twenty miles distant. II must be
remembered that the population of Antofa-
gasta Of the adjoining mines is composed of
Chilians, numbering at least iifteen thousand,
and there are only 800 Boliyians in the entire
district
Chill issued also manifesto, say
ing in substance that it bad ouce sur
rendered the territory in dispute, but
that as Bolivia had violated all the
sanctions of the treaties made 10 that
effect, all the broken treaties were
void, and that it retained and occu
pied the debatable ground as its own.
Why Peru takes a part in the war
is thus stated:
"In times past nearly all the saltpetre was
produced by Peru and prices regulated them
selves in accordance with the laws of supply
and demand, and it was free industry. In
1872, however, the government of Peru took
posses .on Of all The .saltpetIe mines in the
country, and the government does business in
saltpetre the same as it does in guano. The
CHILEAN Saltpetre Company, of Antofagasta,
mentioned above, has capital of 81 900, 900,
and produced last year no less than million
and half of quintals The daily product of
this company is at least three to five thou-
sand quintals. At the same time the Chilians
nave found saItpetrc IN their own country and
they have begun to export it from the port of
Taltal This bears very hard on Peru. and
hence her secret motive for supporting Boil
via against Chill"
1t is hardly probable that the Eu-
ropean powers, which depend to a
great measure on the nitrates and the
guano supply OF those states, will
permit hostilities to greatly interfere
with commerce in those articles. The
armies and fleets of all the nations
engaged are small. Chill is in q bet.
ter financial condition than either
Peru or Bolivia, both OF which are
substantially bankrupt as to their ma
tionaI finances. This country viii

DR. FELTON,, who represents the
Seventh Georgia District in Con-
gress, in an interview expresses the
opinion tho rights of tho States are
not In danger SO long as the Federal
constitution il observed and no rec
oguizes the constitutional right OF
President Hayes TO veto measures
presented TO him. He pronounces
tho suggestion that Congress adj
iourn without making the needed
appropriations as madness itself. He
believes that the appropria'ion~bllls
should be passed without delay.
Commenting on this interview the
Augusta (Ga.) CoaStituti0ndhSt says
that Mr.. Felton's views are substan,
tiallythe same as those held by Mr..
Stephens and it endorses them. As
to the results of the Democratic
policy the Constituencies says:
"The Democrats in Congress have
injured rather than strengthened
their party and we foar that Repub-
liean victories this fall will be the
fruit of their laundering, Let us
hope that before the great contest
OF $50 begins, more wisdom will
be displayed by those who have un.
dertaken to lead the forces and

How many new have gone away

This day, the living mourn,
For those whom they hold dear.
For those who never can return,
Whom we once welcomed here.
The light OF home is gone,
From many household band
Loved ones are scattered, all along,
Their graves, all DER our land.
And yet, we would not call

Twas for their country, they did fall,
Let glory, crown their heads.

Though beautiful and fragrant made.
Yet, but few days, they bloom.
But Oh, Affections wreath,

Weeping for those above.
Tears will nnbidden fall,
Before We think, the sigh
Heaves from the breast, and we do call
For loved ones, in the sky.
Ii is enough that we,

That loved ones in eternity,

Then let us dry our tears.

Through Christ, wen Danish all our fear:
In Christ, our dead are blest. 6
We live to bless the world,
