ISLANDER AGAIN.

In conversation with senator yesterday
the editor of tho DHMounAT was informed
that 4 report was being circulated 10 the
effect that the Lottery Company controlled
every newspaper III New Orleans saws one.
tho DEMOCRAT included. We we're fur.
ther informed that Interested parties we're
actively and generally circulating the afore-
said report with special reference to the
DEMouRAr.
The value and usefulness Of the DEMOCRAT
depends upon its reputation as fearless and
incorruptible journal. Whenever IL shall be
90 conducted az TO lose that reputation 1t be-
comes unworthy as standard-beerer Of the
Democratic party, and whenever Il shall
place the interest OF any individual or cor
poraticn befure the public welfare. then In
deed should public confidence be withdrawn.
In dealing with These reports We are
unable 10 moderate our expressions 20
a. to conform to the conventional usa9es
III Journalism, because We have con-
secrated the DEMOCRAT 10 the service
of the people of our State, and because
the editor has become identified with
its principles and management to such en
extent that reflection upon tho DEMOCRAT
Ia an affront To the individual.
Il is, therefore. due TO ourselves and TO our
friends to promptly and emphatically de-
nounce this base and malicious falsehood ib
its infancy, and to declare that any person
who may assert Or convey the impression,
that tho DEMOCRAT is now, or has heretofore
been controlled OF influenced by the Lottery
Company. Or BY any corporation, directly or
Indirectly, IL guilty OF disseminating SLAM
der.
We do not write under tho impression that
our course requires any defense. but We spurn
tho imputation sought to be cast upon us, and
serve notice that we will resent It. come II

A TWo-HEADBD GIRL.

There is at Sourabaya, Java, at
present on view, a japanese infant
girl with two heads and nochs, but
one body, and two legs. The little
thing is now about 90 days old, sc>
cording to the mother, and is so far
10 fair health. The two beads and
necks are placed side by side on the
trunk, and are perfectly and neatly
formed, and Of about normal size, -
Between them on the trunk is a
small protuberance, caused evident
~ by the junction of two bodies
The body is abnormally broad at the
shoulders, and tapers down at the
waist aud loins to the size of an ordi
nary infant of the same age the
legs appear very small and weak,
however. The arms, too, ON each
side of the broad chest looked puny.
The right-hand head is a little light

internal arrangements are disposed

A STRANGE OCCURRENCE.

Last Saturday a week ago, while
Mr.. Isaac Reed and his four children
were picking cotton upon a portion
of land belonging to Mr.. Newton
Gates, 10 this county, rocks began to
fall about, when Mr.. Reed in anger
grasped up stone and exclaimed,
"Who ever you are, if you don't
stop you'll get this" holding up the
stone in his hand. But the rocks
kept on falling SO fast, that all began
TO wonder who could be throwing
them, when it was noticed that they
were rising off the ground about
them and falling back So strange
sight caused them to leave the
field and go to the house near by,
when the stone-falling commenced
there. Some Of the near neighborS
were sent for, among tn m Mr.. N.
Gates, and Mr.. J. Bazel, Ia sister of
whom is Mr.. Reeds wife) and all
saw the rocks falling, some OF which
were hot, and all testify to the same
facts-for facts they are-but as to
the cause, none of them pretend to
know. Now, some will be so in'
increduIous as utterly to deny this
ard cry out "Pshaw y and "super-
stition," yet, in spite of all, these
are as we'll established facts, as hu-
man testimony can establish. Bet
ter accept Of them as facts, aud go
to investigating for the cause. On
Monday week the same manifesto
tions were repeated at the same
place, and one of the stones struck
little boy on the foot, and another
stone struck Mr.. Bazel on the shout
der. BY the way this is not the
first time that these sort of "mani-
festations" and appearances" or
call them by what name you please,
have occurred, bnt in other places
in this State and Virginia, such have
occurred.

The Poor Pig Roots the Fat Pig
Away and Gets a TGat.

The news of Gen. Hancock's de-
feat is beralded from the North as a
fact. Garfield is certainly elected
President. New York goes Repub-
lican by at least 10000 majority.
Indiana, Maine, Ohio, Pennsylvan~
ia, Connecticut rolls up majorities
for Garfield, backed by the other
Northern States. The Democrats
may get New Jersey, but it is doubt
full.
But out of all this gloom, rises
Clements bright star of victory, to
somewhat soothe our disappointed
feeliogs. The JOURNAL has been
the under dog in the fight for six
years, but this time we come up on
top. We do not exUlt to wound the
feelings of our FELTON, democratic
friends, for they had as much right
to their personal choice as we have.
They have rejoiced and felt good
three times, while we felt bad, and
we trust they will pardon us if our
feelings bubble over little this our
first time. We have stuck to our
colors when it was surrounded with
gloom and went down in defeat, but
now that our flag is floating proudly
in the breeze with victory perched
thereon, we have nothing but the
kindest feelings for all mankind
Let us shake hands, be friends, bury
the past, dwell together in unity and
peace, and in the future have but one
democratic standard bearer. We
are all democrats and have the same
interests in common and should
stand shoulder to shoulder.
