THE small, meek-looking wife Of
Tom Cottre!l, a Missouri horse thief,
followed him weeping out of a St.

conviction. In the corridor she flew
at the sheriff like tigress, threw
him on the floor, and thus enabled
the prisoner to mount a mule and
escape.

SOUTHERN WOMEN AS HOUSES
KEnpERs.-The misfortunes OF war,
eliminating in the loss of servants,
has devoIved on the daughters in
Southern families much Of the hard
work formerly done by slaves, and
they have become more practical
women than they could ever have
been if reared with servant at their
command, ready at oil times to do
their bidding. In all that pertains
to the art of housek eeping, from the
kitchen to the garnet, the girls OF to-
day are better educated than their
mothers were. They have learned
to work for themselves, and for the
families of which they are members.
Cultivated in mind and muscle and
morals, beautiful in form and feature,
modest in speech and apparel, the
Southern girls are the peers OF any

Principles TO rHg rRoNr.

Some days since Sezator Blaine informed
the Senate, and the country, that very few
soldiers are in the States east of the Missis-
sippi river, or in any OF the other States,
and argued, therefore. that all this talk about
troops at the polls was nonsensical, simply
because they could not be brought from the
frontier to do military duty at the polls
The principle of the thing was ignored; the
great contemplated wrong was obscured by a
miserable subterfugs: a falsehood was per-
petrsted in the interest of despotism,
and the Republican party. 1t was
the plea of "a demagogue of
the most dangerous type In favor Of mill
itary supremacy over the civil authorities;
and what of this Is true Of Blaine is true of
every Republican conspirator and of every
.conspirators' organ throughout the, country.
The Democratic party, sppreciating the stu.
stion, proposes to resist in its incipiency the
infamous scheme OF the Republican party.

The Okolona States.


The first number of the National View,
the new Greenback organ, will be out to-
morrow. 1t will contain letter from the
editors OF the Okolona States to Colonel Lee
Cfandall signed by Harper and KEENAN,. In
this we are informed that the States was
started in 1872 by Granville and Harper,
both ex Confederate officers. The editors
say: ssIn 1873 Captain Granville withdrew
from the Okolona States, and Colonel
Harper became sole owner and editor. In
1876 he invited AFR. Will H. KEENAN,, of Ohio,
to the post of associate editor. Mr.. KEENAN,
has been connected with the newspaper pro-
fession since 1870. He began his editorial
career on the Cincinnati Commoner, a
straight-out States right organ, controlled
by Hon. William NJ. Cory. Later he was
editorially connected with the Fort Wayne
(Ind.) Daily Sentinel, Indianapolis Qnd.)
Daily Sentinel, and other papers, all of
which were outspoken opponents of
Democratic principles and Democratic pur
poses at the time he was identi-
fed with their interests. The States stands
to-day precisely where it stood on the 10th
of March, 1872. 1t has never swerved from
the u,terances in its initial issue. 1t has at
all times and under all circumstances advo
Gated the principles of State sovereignty, and
called for the unconditional repeal of the
Fourteenth and Fifteenth amendments. 1t
has always been recognized from the first to
last asa Democratic paper by press, politi-
clans and people," 1t is probable this letter
will be read in the House to confouud the
Democrats again.

The Democratic Programme.
Washington Special

The Democrats of the Senate and House
had separate caucuses day.
The general talk of the two caucuses crys-
tailizes into the follo wing programme up to
q certain point at least: First the passage
as an Independent measure of the repeal, or
its sustance, that was attached to the army
appropriation bill. This, tits generally be-
lieved, will be vetoed. Then the Senate
will take up the legislative bill
and it will go to the presi
dent with the political legislation
attached and will be vetoed. After this the
political legislation of that bill will be placed
in a separate measure and this the executive
will Veto 1t is estimated that by the time
this point is reached it will be the last of
June. There is no doubt that the great
maj ority of Democrats are in favor of stick
ing out against any compromise at that time,
such for instance as an extension of the
appropriations and especially as regards the
army bill. Whether G few Democrats will
go with the Republicans and thereby extend
the appropriation cannot now be foretold
beyond the fact that few are against
allowing the appropriation to fall;
but whether they will bolt the party to
accomplish this will remain to be seem 1t
is almost certain that no Appropriation bill
can be regularly origina'ed The Demo
Gratis of the House appropriation committee
are the most deter mined of any set of men
in the House. All regular appropriation
bills must originate in the House and in
that committee. A joint resolution extend
ing the present appropriations might be
smuggled in by some other channel OF par
liamentary tactics, but it is not likely.

sIPr1NG FACTS FROM FICTION.

The people are now demanding the facts
about congressional legislation, and are win
moving them from the entire mass of Repub-
lican falsehood and fustian. and, as result,
the public mind is obtaining pretty clear
comprehension of the entire subject. The
facts are coming steadily and boldly into
Democratic party has faithfully fulfilled
every requirement of patriotic duty
to the people. Dismissing all con-
sideration of the c appropriations
made at the regular session, and coming
down to the extra session, we find
that appropriations have been made to
maintain the army. Now then, with this
fact luminous as a noonday sun, If the army
disbands who is to blame? The answer
Hayes. His veto killed the army. His
veto stopped tine Government machinery.
His seto produced the revolution
and brought on the crisis, and
Hayes and his party are responsible. Why
this veto? this revolution? this crisis? Boil
down the subject until you obtain its real
essence; press it until 1t occupies the small
est possible space; eliminate every subter-
fuge, and the answer is this: The Republican
party demand the use OF the army st the
polls Nothing less will. suit the party,
and against the use OF the army
at elections the Democratic party has
planted itself, and is willing to refer the
whole subject to the people. 1t were folly
to multiply words. The Democratic party,
true to every principle of constitutional lib
erty, and in strict sccord with the genius of
our Institutions, demands that troops st the
polls shall not triumph over the civil au-
thority; that the Republic shall continue as
the fathers founded it. The Republican
party favors the use of soldiers at the polls.
1t is the party of Capitalization. of despotic
laws and one man power. The issues are
made up; let the crisis come, and let the
revolution boom. =

these were raised to the Irish peerage only.
