Decoration Day at Reaufart, s. Q.

The graves Of the soldiers buried in
tue National Cemetery at Beaufort were
decorated with flowers, ON May 81, with
imposing ccremonies. Several visiting
military companies took part in the cele.
braticn. Major D. r. Corbin was the
orator Of the day, and made a speech re-
viewing the causes of the war, which he
concluded as follows: r5
of admonition and advice. You have at
great cost Of blood and treasure been
made free, aud clothed with all the rights
or citizens. AS such you participate, on
equal terms, with your white fellow.citi-
zens in all the functions Of governments
When viewed, as they should be, these
in O Republic like ours are high and Inn.
pcrtant trusts. They ;:,yolye in theil
exercise matters of the greatest possible
concern and consequence. i have shown
you to-day with what terrible conse.
duences o mistake or wrong, incorpo.
rated into the Constitution Of i787, was
attended. Let that illustrate to you how
important are your privileges and duties
in connection With the functions Of gov
ernment. Had not slavery been reeog-
nized and protected In the National Con.
stitution OF 1887, at; the instance of the
politicians of Georgia and South Caro-.
lima, you would probably never have
been born slaves and the war of 1861
would never have been fought. y is sai,
"The lesson would have you learn,
first and above al Others, is to be- right
in all your political faith and doctrine
and, second, in your selection of men To
represent you in office you choose none
but men Of tbe highest intelligen se and
the purest and best character. You owe
this 70 the Nation that has, at such fear.
full cost, freed AID enfranchised you and
made you citizens. You owe 1t to your.
selves and TO each ether. You owe it q
your, white fellow-citizens, among whom
you have your home and dwelling place
You owe it as g debt of gratitude to those
choice spirits, WHO for forty years, through
evil and good report, bearing oil thirgs
hoping all things, in peril by. sea and
land, pioneered your cause and stsuggled
on in your behalf while you knew them
not, till your cauEe was won and you
we're free. But I have done. I have had
no desire to mipgle politics with the
solemnities of this occasion, but simply
to seize tie moment to enforce a truth

legal right TO ask about 500 questions.

tensaless families to know where the line
is drawn. : II '.'.ss ,!es.. .ist!sf-; ~
No census man has q right to dispute
a woman when she gives her age. Under
the law he can elevate his eyebrows and

No census man has q legal right to
ask q woman if che 10 living with her
first, second or third husband, or whether
she quarrels more with the third than the
first. The law supposes every family 20
be living in peace aud harmony, and the
United States government never takes
any notice of o family row brought on by
the hired girl being Kissed in tbs dark.
pnder the lay, no cepans.taksr has
any right to ask q, wife how many eye-
niugs in q week. her husband Is out after
II O'clock, or what ,is the subject OF her
remarks when he slips In attic sidedoor.
This great and glorious government
hae always been conducted on thA nEiE,-
clple that clubs, lodges and societies were
Q part Of its foundation.
The Law does not specify that the cen.
sua man shall ask n wife If she conldn,t
have done better BY waiting for a second
offer. This information is supposed to
be cheerfully volunteered, aud 10 marked
with big red ''Xn to signify the Off
cial's belief that IL she hadn't accented

Judging from the manifestations yester-
day the election to-day will be holly contest
3D. Early yesterday morning the opposing
parties began to gather in clusters about the
streets, discussing the all-impurtart question
as TO who was to be the next mayor OF Dallas,
The ward politician WAS on the rush the
llyelong day and WAS everywhere aud
everywhere else, 81 to speak. As the day
wore ON the effect grew apace
and by noon the pot was boiling lively.
Sunday morning all the aldermen, save Hunt
md WhillN, came out in II card over their
own signatures, defending themselves against
the charges preferred by Judge Thurmond
This was followed by ii card from Judge
Thurmond, in which he charged that there
had been forgery Of the city records in or.
der to make in appear thpt he had fined par
ties less than the law authorized, and calling
on the people to call Mt the law office of
Fields ~ olemmons, his attorneys, where he
had the records, and see for them
selves. This announcement was rather
startling and during the forenoon
there WIS Il rush of people to their office to
inspect the records. The council had charged
him in their circular that in December, 1879,
Philip Wells pleaded guilty % carrying con-
nealed weapons, and that he fnod him
only 81 and cost, when the lowest fine is S25
ard cost He claimed that his opponents
had changed the figures from S25 to Sl.00on
the clerks memorandum or minute book in
order to injure him.
City Secretary Hereford demanded the
book Of Colonel Stemmons, who at first re-
fused to give it up without Alderman Bohny,
mayor pro tenn, should call fer it, which
secretary. On II closer inspection
it WIS found that on the stub of the order
referred to that Willis was fined only ST.
which did not gibe with the order entered.
The members of the council, with the ex.
ception Of those mentioned above, got out a
second circular, which was followed by one
from Judge Thurmond, both ofwhich appear
in this issue.
