years ago, she faithfully nursed fever
stricken patients in New Orleans.
Again, in 1858, she was at her post,
caring for the sick that whole sorrow-
full summer. In 1856 there was a yell
low fever epidemic at Norfolk. Grand
ma Wilson went there and nursed.
Another year she went to Savannah
and remained while the plague lasted,
caring for the hapless sufferers. Again
she went to Memphis, performing the
same noble duties. Last summer, on
the outbreak of the fever, she went to
Grenada, and thirty-eight days and
nights stayed there, and ''those wither-
ed hands were often the only mes to
soothe burning brows or close dying
eyes. To her tender care were com
mitted their children by dying parents. ="
From Grenada she went to Memphis,
and stayed there, ministering to the
sick and dying like an angel of mercy
till the frightful plague ceased. Then
simple as she vas noble, the heroic old
woman went back, without a word, to
her shabby little fruit stand in Charles
street.-EIchanqe.

The principle of the democratic posi-

They propose having things their W

course there is nothing revolutionary
in that. All good students of govern

stroke of craftsmanship displayed in
placing in the appropriation bills all
the general legislation needed for the
entire session. See what a vast saving
in legislation can be affected. Into
each of the appropriation bills at the
beginning of the session, can be intro

majority desires; the bill can be passed

therefore Uncle Sam will have to close

LONG

Englishmen are realizing that to
elect a parliament for seven years is
not wise. The people are very likely
to change in opinion with the rotation
of events, and n parliament seldom
changes during its existence. In this
respect the United States are ahead.
While some may object to the bi-annual
election of representatives as being too
frequent, it has been found to better
answer the desires and opinions of the
people than If the term were doubly as
long. The trainers Of our constitution
saw clearly the great injustice and
even t%yrannies of long p%arliaments in
England, and they wisely guarded
against extended terms. There was
nearly an equal division in the conven-
ton as to the term for the house, one
class favoring N year, the other three
years. But the question was settled,
as usual, by a compromise of opinion
and two years were thus fixed upon.

Speech by Wade uamninn.

From the Charleston Is. ca News. April 81
At the meeting held in Columbia on
Wednesday night to range for the
defense of those citizen wLo have been
arrested by the Frederal authorities on
charges of fraud in the last election,
Senator Hampton spoke as follows:
Mr.. President and Fellow-Citizens
of Richland: When L was invited to
the meeting tonight it was upon the
ground that | might be here simply to
express my sympathy with the move
ment that has been put on foot, and
with the express understanding thai no
speech would be expected from me. l
can say nothing more than the two
gentlemen who have so ably addressed
you have said, nor a l say that as
well IS they have done. l agree with
the gentlemen who have addressed you
that weare not here to protect criminals;
we are here simply to vindicate the
good name of the people of South
Carolina. The great fundamental
principle of English liberty-loving
people has been always that every man
is entitled to be tried by a jury of his
peers, and by a jury of the vicinage.
This trial in Charleston, if conducted
as it is proposed to be now will simply
be a trial before a packed jury. Our
citizens can meet with no justice, and
it is right that we, their fellow-citizens
should aid them in them in every way
possible; that we shall contribute to the
means of their defense; that we shall
look upon them, as the law looks upon
all who are tried, and say they are in
nocent until they are proved to be guilty.
l came simply, by my presence to night,
to show that l was in sympathy with
this, and l thought it was a fortunate
circumstance that my coming to
Columbia for the first time should be
on al occasion of this kind, where
every heart beats in unison, and where
we can all march touching elbows, as
my friend, Major Thompson, has said.

A Sour Beer Guzzler.

There is an old hummer who has been
loaiDg around our city for several
years, living on the filth and garbage
that he could pick up. He has become
SO low and degraded now that he hesi-
tates nj longer now to rob the dog of
tables out of the filthy slop tubs and
eat it, apparently, with as much relish
as though it were the choicest viands
from a bounteous table. He can also
be seen in the evening or early in the
morning emptying all the beer kegs of
their dregs hat he can find in or about
a saloon. After he has thus collected
this sour trash, he takes it to some Sc
cluded spot and there secretes it. At
intervals during the night, he visits
this reservoir of sour slush and takes a
good drink each time.
: Last night he was destined not to
have quite so smooth a time of it,
for several gentlemen Kept watch of
his movements and saw him hide his
nights supply of drinks. They repaired
to drug store close at hand and OBJ
tanned u little oil from the plant, GRO
ton iytiun and placed it i'll the bucket
of sour beer. They then reticed a short
distance to await Developments. The
old man soon appeared and taking a
good drink, returned to a concert hall.
He remained but a few moments, how
ever, before he was impressed with the
absolute necessity of retiring. He
stood not OH the order of his going, but
went at once. The old warrant will
doubtless have a distaste for that kind
Of a beverage hereafter.

The Finding of the Court Martial .Ap-
Warned to be More Circumspect In the
Future.
WASHINGTON, June 1.-THE proceedings
and findings of the court martial
in the case of Col. d. s. Stanley and
Col. W. B. Hazen, Of which Gen. Hancock was
president, were made public to-day. Tho
court found Stanley guilty of conduct to the
prejudice OF good order and military discipline,
and sentenced him to be admonished in gener-
raj orders by the general of the army. Gen.
Sherman on reviewing the findings of the court
says: The proceedings, findings and SEN
tence of the general court martial in the case
of Col. D. s. Stanley are approved. Col. Stan
ley will resume command of his regiment.
The general court martial convened by genera
hereby dissolved. The members and
military witnesses, including COL Hazen, will
resume their respective posts of duty. In re-
viewing the voluminous report of this case the
general of the army af6rms the Judgment of
the court that Col. Stanley In writing to Col.
Hazen, then abroad, the threatening letter of
Sept. 6, 1877, and afterward in allowing the
publication Of charges in the New York Times
committed breach of discipline. He had a
perfect right to prefer charges and specitica-
tions, which he had done from New York on the
9th of July, 1877. but when ad-
vised that the President of the United
States had considered them, and had
decided that the best interests of the service
would be advanced by general court martial,
it was his plain duty to have submitted grace
fully. The law officers of the government
have decided that the United States cannot
arraign for trial an officer for ofenses COM
mitted more than two years before the order
for assem- bling of a court. For this reason the
charges against Col. Hazen cannot be inquired
into by a general court martial 80 that this
trial and judgment must stand as final de-
cision of all matters raised in the controversy.
Both parties will be careful that the service be
not injured by a revival of this subject.
