THE, .WERB-F0O7ED. CHICKENS

A nice little motherly hen was shes}U Hy8
And as proud of her chickens as she could be:
oh, they werea funny lot
Their toes turhed in, and their bills were round
In search of q muddy spot. r3aT no 4
"Cluck, cluck!" would the mother-hen loudly
AS soon as the rain began to fall: .u,..r
"Come in, my dears, you'll get wetf'
"Quack, quack! quack, quack! p said the duck
. n lings four; +ttBD5 aiiHl6f k5a .
- -.Cluck, elucky said the hen. "don't, you see
"ouack, quack !" they answered, g not YETI
Thoug hhard she scratched with her willing
She couldn't get them enough to eat
The horribly greedy things! .rnt >, ,,i,,..&
For they wouldn't. roost on the barn-yard
fence, ,~ =,
Or make any use of their wings. -tA.
AS they grew. older, the mother-hen
Went out with her chickens a-walking, when
They came to a pretty pond,
And into it straight, with a fearless dash,
The web-footed chickens went splashety-
And scared their mother SO fond e.
Scared her verify out of her wits,
Into spasms and fainting-fits:
Still she kept crying, "Cluck, cluck!
You'll drown! you'll drown! my dear quartet!'
"Oh, no, we won't; you needn't fretP'
Exclaimed each naughty duck. f y
AS they grew bigger, they wouldn't mind,
But wandered off wherever inclined, %&
And the motheriy hen declared
That. if they continued behaving SO, r.
She wasn't to blame, and they might go
And drown, for all that she cared.

establishment dealing in his kind of
goods. Hestepped in, inquired for the
proprietor, and handed him his card.
The proprietor grufiy informed his WIS.,

goods in the store than they could sell
in five years. '' Who asked you to buy

a stranger here. and not feeling very

turned to the store they sat down and
talked" about the weather." and yari-
Gus other things, but not q word about
business did the commercial traveller
utter. An hour or more passed in that
way. and then the proprietor questioned
his caller about his samples. The lat

showing them, but was finally prevailed
upon to do SO. Before he had left the
store he had taken orders amounting to
about nine thousand dollars, His STRAIT

COURTHOUSE, October ii, 1880.
To-day s. Brown Allen. OF Augusta, made
his appearance to advocate the cause OF the
Mahoneites, but FickIen. the" war-horse

cussion was arranged. The Mahonelies
claimed, as usual, an advantage for their
Young colt, and Fickien agreed to let him
have one and a half hours OF time, and he
only one hour and ten minutes. Aliens
speech was the same old song-fundne bill
OF 1871, Massey, Malone, Gilbert Walker,
General Wickbam, John Echols, &c, &c,
with numerous extracts from the editorials
Of the Richmond Wing.
Fjcklen rose and thanked the audience
for their courtesy to a stranger, and tnen
the fur began to fly like six steam cotton-gtns
i'm full operation. A horde OF negroes, led
by Frank Moss, commenced TO interrupt
MIR. FickIen, and the white men OF old
Buckingham became reused. Men came up
TO the stand who had always been opposed
to FIckIeu, and who voted against him last
fall, and told him, 4" We have ALWAYS been
against you, but are for YOU now we are
Resdjusters, but we will fight by your side
to the death against negro-rue in old Buck
ingham."
Allen replied in thirty minutes, asking,
"Whcr6 is John Echols"l &c.
Ficklen closed in ten minutes, and the
crowd all rose to their feet. In reply to the
inuepdo against EchOls be turned to Allen
and said, "You know where he is. You
know he is on his sick bed. But II the
lion. hearted old Democrat OF Augusta gets
well and shakes his name at you be Will
scare you out Of the Seventh district"
Send some more like MIR. Allen to this
county, and let their "fai.hful allies" at
tempt to haul down Democrat like Ficklen,
and every white voter will be at the polls on
the I'd Of November and vote for the regular
Democracy and for white mans rule in

Governor Holiday.
vIRGINIA's EXECUTIVE IN ATLANTA.

ATLANTA Constitution, Tuesday
Yesterday afternoon Governor Holiday,
OF Virginia. arrived in Atlanta, accompa-
MED by Colonel Thomas III. Carter, Mr.. f..
II. Mcclure, Miss Claiborne, and Miss Bu-
ford, of Virginia. The party cine from
Augusta in a superb coach, in which they
have travelled from Richmond. The Gov
ernor has attended the Kings Mountain
Centennial, and thence went TO Columbia
and Augusta.
He will remain in Atlanta until % O'Clock
this afternoon, when he will leave by the
Airline for Spartanburg. From that
point the party will go to Ashevilie and
cDjoy the famous scenery OF the Carolina
mountains before returning to Virginia.
Last evening a reporter Of the Constitution
paid his respects TO Governor Holiday and
party in their car, which was stationed at
the east end OF the passenger dep0.
The Governor is genial gentleman. OF
apparently forty-tve years of age. He
wears an empty sleeve, the mark OF bis
gallantry in the late war. He conversed
pleasantly about The recent campaign In
Georgia, and expressed the hope that the
dissensioDs then created would not prevent
a harmonious action OF the Democracy on
national issues. This line of conversation
suggested the troubles in Virginia, and the
reporter asked
do You think there will be any serious
difficulty in electing the regular Democratic
electors in Virginia ?"
al hope not,' said Governor Holiday,
"but l cannot speak with certainty, as |
have not been in the State for several days,
and am not fully posted az to the drift Of
affairs there. A great deal depends on the
course OF The Republicans. i learn that
they are organizing, and will give hearty
support to the ticket they put out IN August
in preference TO throwing their strength
with that OF the Readiusters. trusl that 1t
will turn out all right, however, ami that
Virginia will be in the Democratic line"
Governor Holiday saw a large part OF the
business district OF Atlanta and few re ST.
dence streets yesterday afternoon.
He was much pleased with the evidences
OF thrift and enterprise which every where
met his eye, and said some exceedingly kind
things about Atlanta. We extend to him
and bis party warm welcome TO the city,
and regret that their stay here will be so
brief,

A VIEW OF THE RIVER.
The river. which at ordinary times runs
with a swift current, now resembles q
chain OF lakes. The various dams, most OF
them used In years gone Ivy for fsh-wires,
raise their naked rocks and expose the bed
Of the river on which they were built. The
lakes, large and small, are principally thick
with seaweed, the surface sprinkled with de-
caying animals, especially dogs, whose
owners did not consider them worth the
two dollars per year license exacted by the
city's fathers. Many OF these lakes have
degenerated into stagnant pools and oil the
air with foul-smelling gases; others have
assumed decided tnge given them by the
refuse waters discharged into the river by
the silk and cotton dye-works, and give
the river a variegated appearance. Add
ed to this Is the sewage OF Pater-
son, OF 80, 900 inhabitants. For few hours
each day there Is enough current from the
water Of The paper-mil to carry portion OF
this compound to the reservoirs OF Belle
vile, Newark, and Jersey City, and to re-
place 1t with water which in turn becomes
polluted. Scientists Claim that water pur-
ties itself after running seven miles. Happy
thought Bellevile 10 exactly seven miles
from Paterson, and by the time the sewage
OF Paterson, together with its poisonous dye
stutfs and deceased CANNES. gets to Belle
vile, 1t has been converted into aqua puTd.
In Paterson it is still possible TO get some
pure water which has accumulated In lakes
on the side OF the river where dye-works
do not flourish. Luckily this side OF the
river Is also the most accessible to teams
drawing water-carts.
WHEN WILL THE TROUBLE END!
It was repeatedly asked yesterday in Pa
terson when the trouble would end. Al
ready were the mills and factories closed
and water had become staple in the mar
kets, and still the water-famine had only
begun. Already was Paterson losing thou
sands Of dollars day, and still hall the city
was supplied with water, and many large
establishments had not closed. II one day
OF want OF water in half the city could ac-
complish this, what would happen in case
the whole city were deprived OF its supply,
as was almost certain to be the case? Then,
In case cOnflagratiOn should occur, where
would 1t cease? In past days large fires
had repeatedly drained the reservoir con-
nected with the district in which the fire
occurred. Now the reservoirs only contain
small quantity OF water, and when that is
exhausted there is no place to get more
from. Tue most serious apprehenslons are
heard on all sides, and The situation Is as
novel as IL is grave.
