ANOTHER proof that the Solid South,
when there are offices to be filed, prefers
the Rebel soldier. Governor Colquitt
and ex-senator Norwood have been ri
val Democratic candidates for the Gov
ernorship in Georgia, no other candi-
dates being in the field. Each las tried
to prove that he was better rebel than
the other, but Governor Colquitt was
able to taunt Mr.. Norwood with the
fact that he did not enter the Rebel
Army, and Governor Colquitt has been
elected by a majority estimated all the
way from $4,000 to 10000. And this is a
specimen (from Democratic newspa-
peri of the utterances which gave it to
him: There was time when families
were separated, and mothers had to give
up their sons. From Newton county,
and from every other county, there went
out brave men to do their duty. Suppose
every young man in Georgia had follow
ed Mr.. Norwood's example, how many
regiments would we have had in the
field?" This is the kind of talk that wins
in the South. If General Hancock should
be elected, it would be in order to post
up sign on the Washington Depart
ments: None but rebel soldiers need
apply"

An Incident of the Seven DAYS.

Edward Field, in October Californian.
A battery of the First Artillery halt
ed that night i'll a little clearing. The
men lay down, unhitching their horses,
but leaving them in harness. The first
sergeant, now an honored officer of the
Third artillery, told me he got mp and
walked toward one side of the clearing.
He was halted, and turned back by a
sentinel. Going toward the other side,
he was again challenged.
"WhO comes thar?"
The voice struck him. He replied,
"Friend;" and said, "What regiment is
that?"
The answer came, Seventh Alabama"
What regiment is that ON the other
side 2"
Fifth Georgia." replied the sentinel.
"What battery is that?"
Here was situation. The serg ant
naturally didn't know the name of the
battery in the rebel army. Hesitation
would have been fatal. By lucky in
spiration he replied, "One of Stuart's
batteries" knowing that Jeb Stuart
commanded their cavalry.
"Oh, said the other; ;"then you's boss
battery?"
YES" said c.. "Good night"
He Immediately awoke the captain,
who rather angrily said, what the
deuce is the matter now?"
Excuse me, captain" said the SER
geant," but we're camped between a
Georgia and Alabama regiment"
1t is needless to say the captain got
up. Horses were hitched in quietly,
and the battery withdrew from between
the sleeping regiments, who never knew
of the prize that was within their grasp.

Nor an organ or an orator of the De-
mocracy has dared to deny the fact that
that party holds six Republican States
in the South by fraud and violence; and
that were it not for the most shameless
bull-dozing and ballot-box stufing in
those States it would nave no more
prospect of electing the next President
than it has of carrying Iowa. And yet,
with these facts undenied, they have the
unblushing effrontery to appeal to the
intelligent North to intrust them with
the complete control Of the Government.
For unparalleled audacity the Demo-
cratic party is entitled, net to single
cake, but to whole oven full of cakes.

The Democrats and General Shields

The Democrats and General Shields.
A Brooklyn reader of the Tribune in
forms us that the Democrats are trying
to induce the Irish Republicans of that
"iiy to vote for Hancock by charging that
Garfield opposed the granting of a pen
sion to General Shields. He asks if this
is true. 1t is hot. But it is true that the
Democratic treatment of General
Shields is ore Of the blackest spots in
their black record. AS they seem anxious
to revive the subject, We will proceed to
cite the facts.
In IA Democratic caucus of members of
the House, held on April ., 1878, two
names were proposed for the Office of
DOorkeeper, General James Shields, a
Union soldier, of Missouri, and General
Charles w. Field, a Confederate briga-
dier of Georgia. The vote stood 80 for
Field and 20 for Shields. On motion of
Speaker Randall the nomination of
Field was made unanimous. When the
question of election came up in the
House, General Butler, who was not
then Democrat, for the purpose of put
ting the Democrats on the record square
ly, introduced resolution that the
House proceed to the election of a
Doorkeeper, and that the tried Union,
MANNED soldier, Brigadier-General
James Shields, of Missouri, be chosen to
that Office" This caused lively COM
motion. Congressman Clymer, speaking
for the Democratic caucus, proposed as a
substitute resolution that the blouse
proceed to the election of Doorkeeper." "
An animated debate followed, in which
General Butler took occasion to say that
the difference between the two candi-
dates was the difference between 10y
atty to the flag of the Government that
educated Field and brought him up, and
treason to that flag for which he ought
to have been hanged. The penalty for
his treason was death, by all law, hui
man and divine, but the clemency of the
country relieved him from that penalty"
The substitute was adopted by a vote of
123 to 100, all those voting in the affirm
ative being Democrats, and all those in
the negative Republicans. The Confed-
crate brigadier was then elected by the
following vote:

Maxims for Everybody.

Pay as you go.
Progress comes by labor.
Passion impels; opinion guides.
Prejudice is the child of ignorance.
People are known by the company they
keep.
Passion neutralizes both strength and
reason.
Political life finds most, and leaves all,
dishonest.
Pride and poverty usually reside in the
same house.
Prefer to be a dOer of wisdem rather
than professor of it.
Persons who fret more than they work
can never be happy.
People who do mean acts, throw poison
into their own wells.
Physical life is a state of growth or pre-
paration for spirit life.
Persons who have the most of gravity,
have the least of anything else.
People are always ready to assist those
who need no assistance.
Promises made in atiliction require
better memory than many possess.

Dan and Dimple.
BY ALICE GARY.

To begin in things quite simple
Quarrels scarcely ever fail;
And they fell out-Dan and Dimple-
All about horses tall
So that by and by their quarrel
Quite broke up and spoiled their play !;
Danny said the tail was SOrrel,
Dimple sand that it was gray!
just as gray as mothers shawl"
"And that's redl" said saucy Dimple,
you're fool, and that is all y
Then the sister and the brother
AS indeed they scarce could fail,
In such anger, struck each other
All about the horses tall
"Red!" cried Dimple, speaking loudly,
How you play at fast and lOose!"
"Yes," said Danny, still more proudly,
when I'm playing with a gOose!
In between them came the mother;
What is all this fuss about?"
Then the sister and the brother
Told the story, out and out.
And she answered, 81 must label
Each of You little Ounce,
Since to look into the stable
Would have settled it at OnceF'
Forth ran Dan, with Dimple after.
And full soon come hurrying back,
Shouting all aglee with laughter,
That the hors's tail was black
So they both agreed to profit
BY the lesson they had learned,
And to tell each other of it
Often as the fit returned.

JUST as soon as a sample Southern ut
terance by Solid Southern orator finds
its way North, that orator rises up like
Wade Hampton and pronounces it a
forgery" This is Il great year for fol
gerieS." The South seems to be full of
obscure newspaper writers" with fine
tropical vocabularies, who go about put
ting fiery bursts Of true Southern rhetoric
into the mouths Of Southern leaders. So
long as those bursts are confined to
Southern Democratic newspapers no cor
rectiOns or contradictions are made, but
the minute malicious Northern Rad
ical" newspaper quotes them there is
trouble. It's queer world, but not so

Shields on the retired list of the Army.
This passed the House by nearly unan-
imous vote 22S yeas and nays. The
The nays were cast by Messrs. Ran
dolph, White, O'Niel, Jones. Cox, and
Acklen. When this bill came up in the
Senate on May 81, a motion was made
to add General Grants name, retiring
him with the rank of General. This was
adopted. Wnen the bill, as amended,
came up later for final passage, it was
lost by vote of 80 yeas to "a nays. Only
eight Democrats voted for it, and twen
ty-four voted against.
This is the record on General Shields.

point in their black record exposed, all
they have to do is to mention it.-IN Y.

HANCOCK and ENGLISH are both
sound on the "nigger." English is on
record as firm in the belief that slavery
was divine institution, and that the
"nigger" when free is a nuisance which
ought not to be tolerated. Hancock is
opposed to "nigger domination" and the
two, if elected. could be depended upon
to let the South have its own sweet will
with the freedmen. The principles of
Lee and Jackson would be reinstated
with a shout.
