A French engineer has invented a

To dine with n of his best customers,
who is no end of a swell. The soup
being removed and a clean plate placed
before Il commisroydgeur, he instinc-
lively brushes its surface clean with his
napkin. The host mods severely to the
servant who the plate and
substitutes another one, which is sim.
ilarly removed, and SO on. AT the
sixth renewal the drummer says con
fidentially to his neighbor: Say does
the old stem-winder expect me to pol
ish all his crockery for him"
Generally, says Bilfnsh, superior
men are lonely men. Their superiority
i~solates them or it is at once the effect
and cause of isolation.

no operation till he is dead whereas
hers generally takes effect in her life

THE FALSE ORLANDO.
While stars are twinkling bright above,
And Luna sings in western sleeps,
Her lonely watch fair Cynthia keeps
And broods upon her maiden love.
Upon her pallid cheeks a tear
Strays from her wan and fierceleSs eye,
And from her lips escapes a sigh
40, why is not Orlando here?"
Is that his voice In yonder dale,
That floats like music in the air:
No, no! Orlando is not there
'Tis but the tuneful nightingale.
Is 1t his step upon the hill
That brings the bloom to Cynthia's cheeks =?
Nay It's a thirsty mule that seeks
Refreshments at the mountain hill.
Heaven help thee in thy piteous plight,
Cynthia, fair as summer kies-
Compose thy sorrow, wipe thine eyes
Orland will not come tonight.
For in the mid-night's solemn hush
He breathes a vow that smells of wine
lie holds a hand that is not thine,
And dallies with a bobtail flush.

WASHINGTON, Sept 90, 1880.
The election in Maine, It Is GENERALLY con.
ceded, settles the question n the Presidency.
A loss 70 the Radicals oF more than iftean
Thousand in . voting population like that Of
Maine, which is about one hundred and eight
con thousand, insures that party the loss OF
New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Hi
nois, California, Nevada and Origon, and
makes Massachusetts doubtful ground. IS
The lovers Of peace and tranquility may
now rest assured that neither civil war nor
sectional animcsity shall blot our history for
many years to come. Fraternity, quiet, COM
merce, and generous rivalry in protective
industry are to be ths-Eslibboleth Of the fu-
ture y
From the tall peak of Katadin now echoing
the shout of victory to the golden shore of
the ocean, the Gulf Of Mexico and the far off
Pacific Coast, the entire land is to be cush~
ioned with good will. The scars Of war are
not to be opened, and only as q frightful,
unwecome hiatus in American history, are
they to be remembered. We must and win
have peace. #F -.. ...l.. ,
Such is the feeling prevalent in the Ma
tional Capitol among all classes, except the
Office holders. The latter are nervous, petu-
liant and moroso. Twenty years of Office has
made them tyranical, selfish and exclusive,
and now that they perceive the axe of the
headman suspe nded above them they become
frantic with .rage. l have seen an agent of
the Radical party pressing through the In
terror Departmert, paper and pencil in hand,
noting down@tiie names Of every employee
suspected of Democracy with view to their
removal. This agent informed me, that it
was the purpose of the Administration TO
''disoharge oil traitors" meaning thereby all
Democrats. 1t is we'll known that this pur>
pose has been faithful lily carried out, and that
to day there is scarcely q nj nm to be found in
Government employ who does not avow him :
self Radical.
In the good time coming and which is to
follow Gen. Huncock's election, l trust O
such disgraceful scenes may transpiro. Let
there be no indiscriminate removals from
office on account of political sentiments. Is
he honest and capable? Should be the only
question asked respecting subordinate off
GERS. Or course the heads of Departments s
and 9th crs who maintain intimate relations
with uoyernment, must be made to con
form to the national policy. But for clerk
ships and oil minor positions. trust the
system Of fraternity and good will which the
people rnanifcsly desire, will be fully ad>
opted, No more angry shaking Of fists over
the bloody chasm. No more stupid md use
ensanguined under-garments. But pence like
asmantlc shall shroud the land, and industry,
progress in the useful arts, anu general pros.
pertys shall be the common lot nnd benelic.

II seems that the Democratic clubs in this
County have concluded sinco our primary
election that they have no more work to do,
and so far as We know there has not been a
single club meeting since that election. This,
in our opinion,ia ia wrong; the clubs should
meet as regularly as they did before the pri-
mary election and endeavor to enroll as m arly y
members before the general election as posi-.
BILE. In our primary election we placed our
standard bearers before the people. Now it
is our dutyto elect them by jnst as many
votes majority as possible. Not cnly this, we
should work earnestly for the State and
National ticket. The election Of these tickets
might depend upon how the voters OF Pickens
County perfcrmed sheir duty. So let us CON.
tinre take an interest in club meetings and
ses Giat every Democratic vote is brough out
Oh tho 2nd day Of November,

We learn that it is tho intention of the Ra-
dical party of this County to rurn q full
County ticket They propose to fuse vie
tho Independents (if there be any such an
animal in the County, and run the campaign
as vigorously as possible, although they will
woY on the sly' as much as possible. Our
inf hant who was approached by one o.,
their candidates, (though he has not been
publically announced YETI to solicit his votef
and to whom he developed their plan, is conf
dent that they intend TO make the best effort
they possibly can. We regret anything like
political excitement over our &otinty Offices,
but we think an opposition ticket will add at
least three hundred votes to the Democratic
party. 1t will bring out our entire vote and
helpiOpr State and National ticket, and we will
bury them under, ct Che least calculation fifteen
hundred majority. Come out gentlefaen and
show yenr coiors. 's& "A

Reply to "A Democrat. "

Mr. EnIToR; | notice IL communication in
your last issue charging tho managers Of tho
Eaststoc primary election with unfair dealing.
AS was one that went mp stairs, focl that
in justice TO the honorable managers I should
reply TO "a Democrat" a fricnd and I had
q littlo private matter TO fix, so went up utnirs.
I don't recollcct whcther the door was sh,it or
not, but won't in, shut the door and stopped
near it. (Here will say the managers VI }re
counting The votc at the father end under Ale
window. We did not say one word to thdgp
nor have anything to do with the counting 4,
neither did think Of any hardness growing
out of us going up.) Just after we entered
the door, and were standing noar it, some ono
cnme up the steps. My friend leaned against
the door; more for mischief than any ything else.
Whoever it was went down. Perhaps it was
'A Democrat" If it was, he can charge it to
US and not to the managers l believe tho
managers acted perfectly honest In tho count.
AS to being taking in by the managers as
their choice, it is all false. The other No malters
he spoke of, l care nothing for.
Very respectfully,

The Columbia Register says II has IL from
good authority that the Radicals have their
State ticket arranged, and that It will be
sprung just before the election, and that oil
the faithful and truly 'loip' have been in
formed Of the programme, and know now,
altf ough there has been no public announce
ment made, whom they are to vote for at the
general election. They may possibly have
county tickets arranged in the same way
