MARTINsBURG, Sept. %, 1880,
To the Executive Committee Of the
National Greenback Labor Party
Of Berkeley County:
Approaching the high honor con-
ferred upon me by your party in
nominating me for the office of Sher-
if of Berkeley county, take this
opportunity of acknowledging the
highly paid compliment, and feel
very reluctant in being compelled to
decline said honor, as | am III full
sympathy with this new, and / be-
lieve righteous and necessary move
ment, but am compelled to take this
step after mature and deliberate re-
Election, as my business relations
make it impossible for me to make
such a canvass as would do justice to
the cause, and if elected, to attend
to the duties of said office.
In declining | tender my hearty
support to my successor who shall be
placed on the ticket by your Com
mittee, and hope that it will meet
with favorable consideration and
the same earnest support from my
friends. JOHN FITz.

The Baby's Funeral.
at is we'll with the child.n


We could hardly see it at first,
for something that was in our
eyes, and made a sort of mist, but
as it moved slowly away we look
ed after il, aud thought how pretty
and appropriate it was. Father
saw Us all standing at the window,
and when we said it was the ba-
by's hearse he looked too, and
then something got into his eyes,
and he walked off, aud picked
little Mable up and gave her such
a kiss, AMI she seemed TO under
stand wat he meant, and held
out her little white hands and
said, pretty ba-bee,' and then we
all laughed and squeezed her, and
mother must be getting nervous,
for she cried, just as if it had been
our baby that had gone away.
staid at the window as long as
| could see the little white car
riage, with its clear glass sides,
and all the lovely flowers heaped
within as there had been moth
ing else but a load of rosebuds and
White carnations and velvet PAN
sizes. Then / looked to see If the
long white ribbons, with their
garland of green leaves and pale
pink buds had been taken from
the door; they were still there, but
while | was looking a white-hair-
ed woman came and took them in.
She was crying, and / thought she
was the baby's grandmother, and
most likely would be glad to die
now, and why must the little child
go first. / told mother about 1t,
and she said if | would look in my
Sunday-school Bible l would
know, and referred me to the last
clause of the fourteenth verse Of
st. Mark, chapter X; then she
sung to Mabel as she often does,
but this time it was about "a
Reaper whose name is Death, y
and | wished the baby's mother
could have heard the verse.
He gazed at the flowers with fearful eyes,
He kissed their dropping leaves;
1t was for the Lord of Paradise,
He bound them in their sheaves.

Ingenuity of Birds.

A curious illustration of the
practice good sense and ingenuity
Of some British birds is reported
by a railway engine driver on one
OF the Scotch lines. He has MOTTO
ed that certain hawks of the mer-
lin, or "stone falcon" species,
make use of the passing of the
trains for predatory purposes.
They fly close behind, near the
ground, partly hidden by the
smoke, but carefully watching for
the small birds which frightened
by the train as it rushes roaring
past fly up in beWildered shoals.
The merlins then, while the little
birds are thinking more of the
train than of lurking foes, sweep
on them from the ambush of the
smoke, end strike them down
with ease. Ifthey miss they return
to the wake of the carriage and
resume their flight and their hunt.
They can, it seems, easily keep
pace with an eXpresS-train, I'd
outstrip it when they please.

Cheap Prices for Wives.

Rochester( N. I. Express.l
1t is reported to the Cayuga
Chief, on what il considers trust
worthy authority, that in the town
of Conquest few days ago man
sold hia wife to another. Consider
alton So, and expense of drawing
up the bill. The goods were deliv-
cred, and all concerned are said to
be satisfied with the bargain. The
transaction is only equaled by one
of a similar character which occur
ed near Meridian about thirty
years ago. In the latter case a man
sold his wife for $40. She lived
with the purchaser four or five
years afterward, when the orig inal
husband bought her back again
for q pair of boots.

A Greenback Editor Muir
dered.

DIR. P. H. Talbot, editor and
proprietor of the Green6ack Stand
ard, was shot in his own chamber
at Talbot, seven miles south of
Maryviile, Mo-, by some person
unknown on Saturday night. He
left Maryville in theevening, and,
after visiting sick child, returned
home abont 8 O'Clock. His son, a
young man "a years ofage, states
that after coming home, his father
went into the chamber where his
mother was lying on the bed, and,
after taking off his coat and waist
coat, sat down on the bed. His
son says he was at this time sitting
by window reading, with his
arm resting on the windoWsill,
when, at the moment his father
had his hand up to his side, bull
ct, shot with terrible force from a
gun from outside of the building.
came whirling into the room, shat
tering the pane of glass, passing
through a curtain and thence
striking his father, first cutting Off
two of his fingers and then passing
into and entirely through his side,
grazing the leg Of Mrs. Talbot and
lodging in the wall beyond. The
Doctor cried out that he was mnr-
dered. and tried to reach gun
standing in the room, when AL
bert says he grasped the gun and
went to the door, where he heard
hurried footsteps passing the front
of the house. He opened the door
and saw retreating form, at
which he fred, but without effect.

A Boy Ten Years Old to be
Hung.

The Athens (Ga.) Blade states
that a year ago a white man nam
ed Hellsman carried little color
ed boy away from his home in
Monroe county, Ga, and beat him.
The boy disappeared, and it is
generally believed that the beat
ing caused his death. Recently
Hellsman son went to we'll near
cotton patch and was found dead
at the bottem of the we'll. A col
ored boy about ten years old was
seen coming away from the well,
and, on circumstantial evidence,
he has been convicted and sem
fenced to be hung. 1t is, howev-
er, believed that the judge will
grant a new trial. The Blade be-
lieves the death of the white boy a
visitation of punishment upon the
first generation for the sins of the
father.

A Card.

The manner in which / have been
called upon to allow my name to be
used as an Independent Candidate for
Circuit Judge, leads me to believe tn It
the people desire to have this office re-
moved from the arena of party politics
and placed as it properly should be,
upon - more elevated and dignifled
plane. 1t is an office ofsupreme digni-
ty and one of great responsibility
Life, liberty and property are, to n con-
siderable extent, in the keeping of the
Court. The very peace and happiness
of society, its morality and safety de-
Ponds largely upon the manner in
which Courts of Justice administer the
law. A Judge, therefore, should have
nothing to do with politics. 1t is an
office which ever should be separated
from them, and thus kept pure an d I'M
contaminated by political bias, or in
huences of any character which might
affect its purity or indep en- dence. A
sorry day it will be to any people when
the ermine is made the reward of po-
litical service, or made to subserve po-
litical ends. l row say TO my fellow
citizens of all shades of political opin-
ion, that if it be your pleasure to confer
upon me the honor, / will accept the
trust with full approximation of its re-
sponsibilities, and promise you a faith
full and impartial discharge of the du-
ties of the office, remembering, as do,
it is the whole people who are to gain
or loose as the law is properly or inn
properly administered, l now place
myself before the people as the Candi-
date, for the Office of Judge ofthis Cir
cult. Respectfully,

Ninety per cent. of the tables of
disaster chronicled during the past
four months have been rendered
more horrible dy details of frenz-
led selfishness on the part of
strong men, deaf to cries of wo-
man and children. Ofcourse there
have always been noble except

prove that the males, as alrule, be-

courage.
