SOUTHERN DEMOCRATIC GOVERNMENT

a campaign document has been prepared,
showing the results of Democratic govern
ment at the South. We presume that it
does not exhibit the results OF Carpetbag-
ism in that region, for campaign documents
are not usually remarkable for their
dispassionate character. Yet we are dis.
posed to believe that an, exhibit showing
plainly the entire results of both Repub-
Ecan and Democratic rule at the South
would be very instructive and con-
vincing at this time. For while it would
make the corruption of the Carpetbagger
manifest, it would also demonstrate the
insincerity of the pretenses put forward at
the time, that the Southern whites were
prepared to restore honest and efficient
government if they had the oppor.
tunity. The truth is that since
the whole section fell into their hands
the corruption and abuses have
increased a hundredfold, and the
principal tendency developed has been

macy of the methods by which State and
local debts were contracted. But as the
regulators have shown the same spirit
towards obligations incurred before and
during the rebellion, when there were no
Carpet baggers in the country, it is evident
that that excuse is not valid. Southern
Democracy has in fact tended strongly
towards a modern spelling of the Egypt
ianS, the latter being represented by all
their creditors. As the South controls the
Northern Democracy. it is of no little i'm.
portance to consider what bearing this love
of Reputation would have upon national
affairs, should the Democratic party carry

SURGICAL OPERATION.

SURGICAL OPERATION. = The Nevada
City Free Lance tells of the following
curious but successful operation in surgery,
performed by an old lady at that place
A Nevada City young lady, week or so
ago, went into the garden to do some
work. She wanted exercise, and all the
family thought exercise was good thing
for young ladies. This particular young
lady got hold of spade and undertook to
turn up soil SO that the succulent and
fragant onion would be planted. The
first shove she made with the spade took
off one of her toes. OF course she yelled
anybody would. Her mother came out
and saw the situation. The old lady per-
formed, then and there, a surgical oper-
alton. The toe was put on the place from
whence it was cut by the spade, and the
wounded member was tied up. This morn
ing the "rag" was removed and the toe
was ON the foot. Everything was, all right
and healthy, but the toe was upside down.
The young lady thinks her mother must
have been excited while setting that toe.
