Young ladies who think proper to corre-
spond with rejected lovers would perhaps
do well to take q hint from the following
curious case, which is, however, authentic.
Mile. Felicie Maxy, who lives on the farm
of Pentecote, on the Belgian frontier, was
on the point of being married, when she
received letter from an old suitor asking
her to reconsider the matter, and send him
an immediate reply. A postage stamp was
gallantly inclosed to defray the cost of
transmission. The answer duly written,
Mile. Maxy applied the stamp to her fair
lips; but hardly had she done SO when she
felt sharp pain in her tongue, and in less
than no time that interesting member
became horribly elongated and inflamed,
and covered with noisome sores. The dis
consulate one, Alfred Camin by name, q
farmer of Pichon, in the Nord, has been
arrested; but he declares that he used no
noxious drug, but simply moistened
corner of the stamp with his own hps-a
delicate way of stealing kiss. Such is the
state of the case as il stands at present, but
the tale carries its own moral.

ute Of George IL, re-enacted under Victoria,

Section 2. And be it enacted, that on every
day appointed for the nomination, or for the
election or for taking the poll for the election
of a member or members to serve in the Com
mons House of Parliament no soldier within
two miles of any city, borough, town or place
where such nomination or election shall be
declared poll takeh shall be allowed to go
out of the barrack or quarters in which he is
stationed, unless for the purpose of mounting
relieving guard, or for giving his vote at
such election; and that every soldier allowed
to go out for such purpose within the limits
aforesaid shall return to his barrack or quar-
ters with all convenient speed as soon as his
guard shall have been relieved or vote ten
sdered.
We belong to times that "boom." Strong
governments are in demand. Bayonets, and
not ballots, are the requirements of Radical

DANCING.

The world is given to dancing; why not?
What is the harm? Who is injured? Let
us be rational. Dancing is natural. 1t is in
consonance with youth. 1t fingers some
times until years have turned raven locks to
gray. It Is the body in sympathy with the
heart. 1t is an expression of joy, happiness
pleasure. 1t does no violence to any of the
predispositions to benevolence, or the high
est attainments Of the mental faculties.
1t is the movement of the body in accord
with music, the poetry of motion, the ele-
gance OF exercise, the fruition of movement.
The heart responds with a quicker pulsa-
ton; the eye reveals the approval OF the
soul; the mind gets out of the
ruts of humdrum employments and
takes the elevated way to enjoyments,
which music intensiies and common sense
approves. Notwithstanding all this there
is class of moralists (?) who are "down'
on dancing. They regard a fiddle as the
special instrument of the devil, designed to
carry out some dark design against the
human family. A Boston marrow gauge
divine walks into the subject as follows:
"There, elevated on q table, is a mustached
Shoulder and franticaiiy draw drawing @ posr horse. Sc.
hair over the dried viscera of a dead feline,
meaning of which must be guessed at, while
men and women are mostly jumping up and
dowE, scolding, laughing. shouting, coughing
wheezing, bowling, smiling, frowning. wink
ing, blinking, pushing. pulling, sweating,
rushing, Numbering, rumbfing, tramping and
stamping until the Sody is exhausted and the
lungs cry for air."
1t is not surprising that in the absence OF
such innocent amusement as dancing the
people of Pocasset go into the business Of
child-murder in obedience to revelations
The writer of the foregoing nonsense says
81 have often wondered why people dance

BOTTOM FACTS.

Why not get down to bedrock and dismiss
all foolishness? The Republican conspira-
tors are determined to have troops at the
polls. They are determined in 1880, as in
1876, to control elections by bayonet rule.
They believe in cartridge-boxes instead of
ballot boxes, and bayonets instead of ballots.
They have been compelled to define
their position. They have mapped out
their programme. They are committed
Their mouths are full of lies. Their speech
condemns them. They are traitors to truth.
Their tactics are treason. Their professions
OF patriotism are damnable perfdies. Their
logic is larceny-they steal the livery of
statesman end fiaunt them in the face of the
public that they may maintain power and
prestige-but when they are stripped of
their disguise they appear in all the hideous
ness of convicted felons. the most
detestable mlscreants that bsfoul the pure
air of heaven. These conspirators, having
moulded Hayes to suit their purposes, now
defiantly proclaim the one man power, and
propose to bulldoze Congress; and having
done this, make the Democratic party re-
sponsible. To accomplish this the conspir-
gress and out of Congress-lie in their
organs and their speeches. Having placed
Hayes in power by perjury, they intend to
keep on lying till doomsday. By persistent
Misrepresentation, by falsifying every record,
by opening the flood gates of mendacity,
they hope to obscure the bottom facts, and
in 1880 ride into power upon a tidal wave
of lies, deception. prevaricat,on and fraud.
They are mistaken. Democrats have
them with facts and cut them off from
retreat. They have got to face
the music, stand up to the rack, plead
guilty, or be proved guilty, and suffer the
penalty. The demand of Republican con-
spirators, to have troops at the polls will not
be granted, and PARTISAN supervisors and
marshals will be deprived of their power to
arrest freemen and send them to
prison. These internal devices of Republi-
oaths will be done away with.
These are bottom facts-verities-and upon
them the Democratic party stands to-day.
and will continue to stand. They can not be
abandoned. The people indorss them. To
give them up is to give up the fundamental
principles of selfgovernment, and this the
Democratic party will not do. Nothing
could be more fortunate than Hayes veteos.
They come at the right time.
They have the necessary amount oil
treason in them. They have all the fangs
and claws of Republicanism fully devel-
oped-centralIzation bayonets, bullets. des
potism, etc., to the end of the chapter, in
cluding Zack Chandler and John Sherman.
1t is well; the Democrats may now rest
Let the people take hold of the matter. and
clean out the whole villainous crew. The
bottom facts are at last brought to the sur
face, and the people can contemplate them
at their leisure.

In 1860 Cox attended school in Whining
ton. Lulu Watkins, of Tennessee, was q
pupil at q select school in the same city.
The young people met, and after short
courtship were married by Methodist min
lister, and fed from the town. An attempt
was made to spprehend the couple, but Cox,
then is years Of age, stood upon his rights as
. husband, as the marriage had been con-
summated before the officers came up with
them. A reconciliation was had. Captain
jefferson Norris, graduate of West Point
in the class with Grant, was an instructor in
the school, and he aided and was present at
the marriage. He was dismissed from the
school. Cox's marriage was q happy one,
and the wife who sat IN the court room dur.
ing the trial was the girl with whom he eloped
nearly 20 years ago. The affair was q great
social scandal at the time.

How does this agree With the veto mes
sagess Secretary of State Everts, member
of Hayes cabinet, is on record as follows:
When men vote, and when their chosen
officers meet to conduct the affairs of their
political governments, no soldiers can inter-
fere. This limit to their antagonisms no polit-
1cal party can safely pass.
George W. McCrary, another member of
the cabinet, in book recently written, says:
An armed force in the neighborhood of the
polls is almost of necessity a menace to the
voters, and an interference with their freedom
and independence.
Hon. William H. Seward, the father of
Republicanism, said:
Civil liberty and a standing army for the
purposes of civil police have never yet stood
together, and never can stand together.

JAY GOULD, the owner of that highly moral
cipher organ-the New York Tribune-with
all his shrewdness and smartness, some how or
other gets trlpped up and caught every now
and then. He has been recently indicted by
New Jersey grand jury for an alleged fraud
ulent transaction with railroad bonds. The
chancellor, in his decision, says that the car
company were defrauded in the transaction
under consideration, there is no room to
doubt.
A Mr.. Bentley gives some idea of the
manner in which Jay Gould operates, in his
testimony which is as follows:
Mr.. Gould, when he was president of the
road, instructed me to get up consolidated
bond, think for 81 ,000.U00 and provision was
made for retiring the outstanding bonds of the
company, think about s3,50O,OO. complied
with his request, and the text, 1 think, was
done by Judge Green. took it to Mr.. Gould,
and he interilned two or three additional rail-
don't own these roads, and therefore can't
mortgage them" but he replied that before
the bonds were issued he would obtain them
by foreclosure, or by an arrangemens SO that
they would go in and be mortgaged.
Mr.. Bently adds that he never knew that the
consolidation was perfected.
1t seems that Jay took it into his head to
mortgage other peoples property. He was
told that 1t did not belong to him. He re-
piled that he would have it before long.
Gould and Jim Fisk secured controlling in
terests in the road when 1t was paying we'll,
but it was not long before they had it in
trouble and every body connected with it.

IT is fact worthy of note that any meas
ure passed by Congress in defiance of Repub-

Hayes. Speaking of the silver bill which

power is inaugurated and booming.
