THE FUNDING BILL IN THE

STRONG FEELING DEVELOPED IN
DEBATE IN FAVOR OF A Low-RATE

WAsHINdToN, February 16.-The
little progress made to day with the
funding bill made no material change
SO far as was apparent, i'll Tho attitude
Of Senators towards the bill. Ii any
inference may be drawn from the fact
that mole speeches we're made TO day
iayoring lower rate than 81 per cent
than were made faVoring that rate, it
would be IN the line indicated in these
dispatches last night, namely, that
the advocacy of low rate bonds is un-
expectedly strong. IL was clearly
shown to day, moreover, that should a
l-2 per cent. bill be passed by the
Senate it would be by SO small a ma
jori az TO impair the force of the
| provision and encourage the House to
INSIST, with excellent prospect of sue
cess, upon a 3 per cent. issue. The
fate OF the bill hung upon this item -
Had there been anything like unani-
nifty IN The Senate in favor of 3 1-2
! per cent, the defeat of all funding
measures would have been more than
probable. If the Senate should pass a
3 per cent. bill the fifth section, max

Cation Seed Meal for Stock.

The Southern Cultivator in speaking
of cotton seed meal as stock feed,
says
We have been trying for some time to
yet the result of actual trial in feeding
horses and mules with cotton seed meal,
but have been experimenting cautiously,
ourselves, giving horse about pint of
meal twice day, mixed with oats, or
corn, or wheat bran. At first the animal
did not seem to relish it, but eventually
showed no distaste, and ate the mixed
rations with usual avidity. 1t certainly
produces no harm, for he continued
healthy and throve weel 1t is a very
concentrated food, and ought to be fed,
if no other grain is given, by being thor
oughly mixed with full ration OF cut
hay, fodder or straw. We think it would
be well, in the case of every animal, to
begin with small quantities Of the meal
and increase gradually, watching closely
its effects. If one has an old and worth
less animal, the experiment might be
pushed pretty far on him. We speak
cautiously, because we should regret ex-
ceedingly, to mislead Or damage anyone,
but we have great faith that cotton seed
meal will eventually be the principal
feed of work stock.

Col. Williams too cheap.

Old man j. J. Williams, Of Grenada
is having hard road to travel, since his
recent somersault in politics. He has
heretofore been a staunch Democrat
elected to the last Legislature as such
but because the Democrats didn't see fit
to re-nominate him he Chopped" He
says he always supported Lamar because
Buchanan paid him five dollars a week
to do SO. His conscience must be very
pliable, and his principles very cheap,
for five dollars week is the cheapest
sell we have ever known a politician to
make. Now if his price had been $500
or S., 900 instead of $5,we might have had
some respect for him but five dollar
man is too small for us. He is too cheap.
If he is selling below cost he will soon
break, and somebody will get hurt; but
if five dollars is his market value, we ad-
wise the good people of Grenada county
to get more costly material to represent
them in the Legislature. Bro. Jack have
you forgotten the scriptural injunction,
"The way of the transgressor is hard. -

On last Friday, one Tobe Humphries,
a colored Republican from Lafayette
county, and Legislative candidate on
the Fusion ticket in that county, made a
speech five miles west of this place, to an
audience OF colored voters in which he
said 1--WE have q majority OF twen;F
thousand voters in this State. Rem" n
Der now, there are twenty thousand
more of these here kinky heads IL the
State than white voters, and if he elec-
ton is lost it will be your fau9 We've
got the numbers on "em.' Here is di-
rect attempt to array the colored voters
against the white voters and to throw
the two races in direct antagonism, a
State of things that all good men OF both
races have tried all these years to pre-
vent, and to maintain harmony and good
will among all good citizens. This man,
who was no doubt, imported here in the
interest of the Fusion ticket in this coun-
tv, comes to SOW the seeds of dissension
and strife, and to renew the race pref
udices and animosities that so bitterly
cursed our people under Republican rule
Colored men this is an attempt to ensnare
YOU again, into that position which once
led to an armed conflict of races in many
portions of the State. This self-consti-
tuted apostle of yours has come to teach
YOU and your children, to hate your
white neighbors and their children, and
if YOU follow his teachings it will require
only few years to bring forth the bitter
fruits of this Gospel of hate.-Cofeeville

A dillapidated-looking tramp, with
sixteen distinct patches on his clothes
and a plaster over his eye, yesterday
went into Main street saloon, slapped
down worn-out dime, and bawled out
in voice loud enough to bo heard in
Ogden:
"Give me soda>water cocktail with
the North Pole in it."
a crowd outside, thinking free drinks
were to be set up, crowded into tho sa'
loon and watched and waiteu. The man
of rags, who had ordered the North Pole
in his drink, ate up all the lunch he could
find, chewed up the coffee and cloves,
and was tackling the mint when the bars
tender quietly asked:
"What did you say you wanted in
your drink, Mr.. Gould?
Mr.. Gould steadied himself moment
grinned on the crowd and at himself in
the looking>g'ass and replied.
IF you please sir, I'll have the North
Pole in it.'
The bartender remembering long
piece of gas,tubing, about three feet in
length, which had been left around ; he
got it and blew some cayenne pepper
down the inside, put one end OF it in tho
cocktail and smilingly handed it to Mr..
Gould. Mr.. Gould took it, gave pre-
liminary pull, and then hurricane arose
1t seemed as though the combined tor
nadoes of eight Eastern States had bro
ken loose. An immense conglomeration
of legs, arms, hats, canes, and bodies
was observed piing out of the saloon a
few moments after; and to-day, when
the saloon-keeper reckons up the losses Of
broken head, cracked mirror scratched
and stained counter, and liability OF
being sued he will sadly remember the
last words of the tramp as he closed the
eor and shot up the street.

LAMAR MAKES THE FINEST SPEECH OF TIE
CANVASS.

BRooKHAvEN October 3l.-Lamar
spoke here to-day to large audience of
both colors. He was introduced r. PHI.
Endy in very appropriate speech. The
courthouse was densely packed,a large
portion of the audince being compelled
to stand up. His speech consumed two
hours and a-half, and was listened to
from beginning to end with the most ar
dent attention. He poured hot shot into
the ranks of the Independents, and in
eloquent terms plainly showed his audi
ence that the Independent movement
was nothing but the attempted resurrec-
ton of the Republican party. He made
a strong appeal to the white colors to
stand together in this issue, for he said
it was the most important canvass since
the death of Republicanism. His speech
was the best and most effective we
have heard during the canvass.-N. @.

comprehensibleness, coalescent consist
ency and concatenated cogency.
Eschew all conglomerations OF fatulent
garrulity jejune babblement and asininc
afectations. Let your extemporaneous
descantings and unprecedented expa-
tiations have intelligibility and veracious
vivacity, without rhodomontade or
reasonable bombast. Sedulously avoid
all pollysyllabic brofundity, pompous
prolixity, psittaceous vacuity, ventrilo-
quial verbosity ACKNOWLEDGMENT vapidity.
Shun double entendres, prurient jocosity
and pestiferous profanity, obscurent or
apparent; In other words talk plainly
briefly, naturally, sensibly,, truthtully,
purely. Keep from "slang" don't put
on airs; say what you mean; mean
what you say. And don't use big words.
