lie; we can, but we won't-we don't want
70. We did it The political inconsis-
tency and sins of our brother needed cor
rection, and we thought we would Try our
hand at II. We hope he has not been so
long in the Democratic party that his lapse
from political virtue is complete and he
past redemption. But we have our doubts.
But let us advise him not to take any
chances on his scissors. When his old
wind-broken, spawned and generally dila-
pidated Democratic charger, on which he
is now with difficulty managing to ride,
has wound up his earthly career-gone to
the shades, so to speak and he is cast
upon the cold charities of the world, those
scissors will serve as reminders of the un-
profitable years he spent in trying to cover
his unsightly carcass with a garb of res;
pectability and galvanize his muscles and
nerves so as to make him able to run a
respectable Presidential race. They may
call to remembrance the many editorial
lies he has scissored, and which, for par
tisan purposes, he endeavored to make do
duty in his efforts to blast the reputation
of good man, and possibly a quickened
conscience may lead him to repentance in
time TO escape the general and eternal ruin
which is morally certain to overtake the
old hulk to which he recently fed from
the Republican party. Let him hold on to
his scissors; they will some day be the
most valuable relic of his connection with
the Democratic party.

The Sixth Epistle of Timothy to
the Wellingtonians.

The heart is an ingenious part of oui
physical structure, the center Of the
system Of blood vessels, but has no more
to do with what we believe, feel OF
think than our knees. Warm hearts,
and broken and coutrite ones, are myths.
When Constantine saw the sign of the
cross in the heavens and mistook the
emblem of peace for a prophecy of war.
Christianity started out on a line of
persecution that gave the world bastiles,
inquisitions and religious intolerance
that has finally resulted in skep.icism
and a universal distrust of creeds and
almost unbelief i'm the Bible. Some
times, as l sit in my old barrel chair,
dreaming, the old sadness passes away
and the hopes of my manhood are re-
allied. The sunshine of hope reflects
beautiful visions; golden atmosphere,
like Indian summer, is all about me; /
see crowds coming to the I" Hornets
Nest," and as they pass out smiles are
upon their faces, and the gentle breezcs
are ladened with odors distilled from
spices, coffees, and teas that are borne
away by the happy throng. Then the
lapse of time is forgotten or glides by
unnoticed. Through endless days and
nights stand in the dim light and look
far across the gulf of eternity, that
ever shades away into distant darkness.
Ifee the forms of all those to whom l
have sold groceries; they greet me
gladly; l enter with them the presence
chamber of eternal life; see the broad,
pearly river with beautiful valleys, on
either side hills and mountains clothed
In verdure that glimmers in the golden
sunshine. 1 hear music that 1 have
never heard before, and read in the
great unwritten book of fate what is
lost and what has been won. Now
mind. tell you this is not all dream.
Come to No. 8 North Main Street, and
see low it is yourselves about this
grocery business.

To READ the accounts of Democrat. .
newspaper correspondents, Of conver-
sations and bargains between leaders I'm
the Republican pa rty, of jealousies and
enmities between the aspirants for
position and control In party and
national affairs, one would suppose a
veritable live reporter was present In
person at every private meeting
between distinguished men, and that he
was giving an almost verbatim report
Of the interchange Of views between
them. They outline programmes for
future action with such definiteness that
we suppose the dear readers of those
journals think that it is all absolute
truth to be fulfilled in the near future,
and In advance stir their righteous souls
with indignation Mt the unconstitutional
and revolutionary character Of the rsdi-
cal party. Let US advise them to
pos<ess their souls in peace. Those
gossipy accounts make pleasant reading
but IL hath not entered into the heart
of man to understand the ability of the
average correspondent to produce fic-
titious or imaginary conversations and
happenings, and 1t Is safe to say that
most of them have not even foundation
In truth. Be assured the Republican
leaders are not 50 stupid as to make
asses Of themselves by foolish quarrels
oriimpracticabie political schemes for
the delectation of the Democracy, how
ever much 1t might please the fossili-
ferrous remains of that party to have
them co go.

IT CAN hardly be expected that the
next congress will allow such notorious
frauds as were perpetrated At the South,
rs for instance i'm Chalmers district,
noticed in another paragraph, and the
Charleston, s. c. district, where Re-
publican majority was counted into a
Democratic majority of 5000, to 60 un-
noticeI. The people have had enough
sntimental softness toward our erring
Southern brethren, and are in no mood
to further tolerate injustice in elections.
Mr.. Chalmers will not be allowed to
take his seat without contest nor will
six or eight others who have an election
by like questionable means. The Dem
ocracy must learn to practice the
doctrine ''of full vote and fair count
they have proclaimed. SO loudly as one
of the cardinal principles Of their creed
or they will ever find the North too
solid to allow them to get any consider
able hold on the National Government.

course of publication by the American
Book Exchang., New York. 1t in
cludes the articles from "Sclerostoma'

be seen, brings this important under
