POLITICAL

Every American citizen has . right to
his own political opinion. whether Re-
publican OIL Democratic. and the right to
vote Is hs plsssss. Trampling upon
those rights, whether in tho mines OF
the Comstock or in the sunny regions Of
the Solid South. in the field or in the
workshop. is tyranny and oppression to
true American manhood. and unjusti'
fable on the part OF whoever attempts
it. Wealth aud power properly used
and judiciously exercised is beneficial
and advantageous to all ; but when 1t Is
made an engine Of oppression to force
the poor and dependent, the miner, the
mechanic or the workingman to vote
against his own free will and political
conscience 1. becomes . curse whitening
TO the manhood Of the oppressed and
b~lacksnins the soul OF the oppressor.
The candidate for public Office who
descends to such strong-handsd means
Of coercion is undessrvipg Of success.
He Is worse than the purchaser OF votes
upon the public street, for the man who
sells his vote does 1t Of his " accord.
and 10 given the free opportunity to re-
fuse or accept. g hs may see at. The
style Of cosrcivs influence referred to has
always been praoticed, however. to q
greater or less extent In all political
communities. and perhaps always will
bs. The rich feel privileged. or assume
the privilege, to walk over the rights Of
those financially beneath them or within
their power. yet at the same time they
cannot but feel that they are dealing
unjustly by their fellows as well as BY
themselves. Let there be none OF this
in the present political campaign. By
mems acts shall we know them. and all
acts Of oppression and injustice will not
bs forgotten by those toward whom they
are committed. "a free ballot and a
fair count" 10 good Democratic talk, but
1t Is still better. reduced to practice.

DEMOCRATIc ORArORY. HAN
COCK AND STATE kloHrs.

Mr.. Flournoy's speech at Piper's
Opera House last Saturday evening was
exceedingly well delivered. for he IL
naturally gifted a. an orator. and very
we'll prepared. for its arguments were
carefully considered. artistically written
and set forth in the most speeious and
advantageous light. In each case. how
svsr, he only went far enough to suit
his purpose. and with the same material
the talented advocate could have made
fully as good and convincing an argu-
msnt in the opposite direction. His
pictures Of Hancock were drawn with .
mastery hand and an attractive bril-
lianey OF enthusiasm that brushed
smoothly over all defects. Where he
speaks OF the superb soldier with his
shield as stainless as his sword" or that
"he carried the brightest blade on the
bloodisst fsld." 1t 10 not very eompli.
msntary to the personal valor and Prov
sss Of the aforesaid soldier. Had he
pictured him with his sword stained red
from bilt to point. dripping with human
gore. moving his way through the ser
ried ranks Of the terror, stricken enemy.
the picture would have been more war
like and appropriate. But then he says
in that connection. "he 10 o grand SOL
der" which accounts for the clean.
immaculate sword.
The talented orator also remarked;
"Garnsld tells Us he wants to spell ma
ton with q big N. We do not want any
consolidated country. This 10 the
United States OF America. We want to
govern and control our social and do
mestic Affairs among ourselves" Now.
what under the sun does the talented
orator mean BY thatl What sort OF .
nation or country would he havsf No
country can exist as . nation without
being consolidated In Its government a.
Q nation. This 10 the United States Of
America" yet the national name would
be q misnomsr were there no cousolida-
ton Of States to form the nation and
government. he Is evidently and DEM
ooratically imbued with the hsrssy OF
State rights, claiming for each State
the right to seceds at will, whether
bought and paid for by the nation. like
Louisiana. or not.
Each and every State has its own laws
governing and controlling its " peeu.
liar social and domestic affairs, which Is
oil the State rights that are needed or
should be allowed. Under the last
Democratic rule this State rights dec
trins was what impsllsd several OF the
Southern States to seeeds from the
Union. and 90 nearly overthrow and
destroyed the nation. Under Republi.
can rule the great American Republic
has been and always will DO preserved
and ito integrity held sacrsdly intact.
No. one stripe shall be torn from the ma
tional Gag or one star obli,sratsd. The
rights OF all citizens will be respected.
our country shall be our whole country.
progress and prosperity shall be the rule
and the result. aud peace svsrmors reign

A Hen Matches TerraDins.

A gentleman in Raleigh Of unques-
toned veracity relates story whose
truth he asserts to be above par. For
some time past hen of his had been
conspicuous by her absence from the
premises and there were fears that she
was lost. Those fears we're very agree
ably dispelled, however, on Friday,
when she made her appearance, sing
ing in her sprightliest style. Just be-
hind her were some diminutive objects,
to which ever and anon she gave her
undivided attention. The slowness of
their progress caused the hens owner
to rush out and see what was the brood
this time. He was astonished to see
the hen cover with her wings twelve
little terrapins. Soon she was reassurded
and allowed HIM to get look at her
treasures. The family were called out
to see the wonder The owner of the
hen then went back the way she had
come and found out how the eggs were
Matched. A terrapin which had laid
the eggs had deserted them, and the
motherly fowl concluded to set on them.
This she had done and the result was
the twelve young terrapins.
