Farewell! to the Radical Party.

Farewell! to the Radical Party.
by A. g.. EvANs OF oRANGEpURa COUNTY
The Radicals will long remember
That they met the Democrats on the 5th
November.
Our party they boldly swore they'd take,
A capture of General Izlar make,
And Of Democratic flour, sweet cakes would
bake
For tho feast on the6th November.
But our red shirt boys, came in time not
slow,
The honest ballot began to throw,
Which turned their cakes, all into dough,
On the memorable 9th OF November.
The Strawberries were pu: to fight:
With howls of Indignation,
The rcd shirt boys, they raised the shout,
Of Cardinals salvation.
Yes Carolina, most gallant State,
With Hampton and good order,
will rout the rognes who lie in wait
Within our Eden border.
X X Y
Oh awful day for RAIDS twill be,
When God i'll justice serves them,
NO Moses then to lead them on,
No Chamberlain to cheer them,
For saints like these will ALREADY be,
In chambers fur beneath them.
Then farewell RAIDS farewell!
A long farewell to thee,
For the red-shirt boys will hold tho fort,
From mountain top to sea
Next to Beaufort County we go,
The poor negro there to set free,
And we will hold aloft our emblem
The red shirt Of the free.
Then glorious Carolina
Will onward move once more,
And the name of Governor Hampton
Echo from shore to shore.
Yes Hampton gallant Hampton,
The fra: i'll time of danger,
In time Of peace a welcome gives,
To every honest stranger.
The black man and the white man.
Alike receive his care,
And in the boon offreedom,
The humblest have a share.
The honest colorcd Democrat
Who once was in the bog
Now shouts the name Of Hampton,
And clears away the fog.
Redeemed from Radical misrule
lie lives wiser man,
pupil ofthe rcd-shirt school,
Beguilc him if you can.
No scalawag or carpetbagger
Will again his rights in wade
He will live a life of freedom
Within Carolina's shade.
Then hurrah for Carolina!
The gallant little State,
She struck for the Constitution
And ensendered yankee hate.
by the bayonct of n despot
Our rights have been ignored,
But through the courage ola Hampton,
To-day they are restored.

Mr.. A. Bonnet. tho we'll $Nown jeweer and
merchaH on Royal street. between Bienvi'le

simple life-savng apparatus called the fire
escape or spiral descensor. The deseensor
was tried. and successfully. too. at the Fair
Grounds on Sunday last. at the picnic OF the
Union Franchise.
1t ie very simple and can be explained In a
few words. rope about thirty feet long. and
having hook Ill the end. was made fast 70 no
window fncing the principal entrance OF the
main building. Tho rop passes through a
spiral tnbo of solid iron ut the end of which Is
attached, by means of n hook, n double brace.
which person passes around his body. When
the rope was sold!y attached and the brace
rom the w reached G the ground a.
most In u second AS the weight of the
body bears only on the upper part Of the rope,
and as the rope below the tube Is slack the per-
son coming down can regulate his descent BY
simply raising the rope. If d full stop Is wanted
the rope can be hi ched to hook on the side of
the tube. The advantages of this machine are
incaleulable to hotel keepers and parties who
live In high dwellings,. The mechanism of the
descensor IL simple; it can easily be attached to
any steady object at hand. The rope is rendered
incombustible by being subjected to a certain
chemical process.
Mr. Bonnet invites those interested, or per-
sons curious to view the descensor. to call at
his Office on Royal street. where he will be
pleased to explain the invention. The fire es-
cape was designed by Y essrs. M. Kitzenger, Of
Metz. and Mr. de Holtzhousen. of Paris.

Crops In Assumption.
[Assumption Chronicle. /

The drouth still continues, greatly to the
injury Of growing crops. Some of the corn
begins to show the effects of dry weather,
and the cane, particularly in thin stands, is
suffering for the want of moisture. In some
neighborhoods the rainfall has been very
scant since the month of February, and the
ground has not been wet two inches beneath
the surface. The dry season has been I'M
usually favorable for cultivation, as the grass
has been kept down without any trouble.
The low stage of the bayou is very annoying
to the rice planters, who will lose their crops
unless they resort to artificial means for the
irrigation of their fields.
