She was alone in the world. Her
various relatives had gradually
passed away and, by astrange coin
cidence. just as the last one passed
she found herself alone. Alone,
did we say? Yet not utterly, for
her dear piano was left her, and
seating herself before it she softly
played the one sweet air. the only
one that she played completely.
1t was true that it was rumored
that the mortality among her rel
atives was attributed to too often
listening to the strain of this love-

In(lOrses Malone.
From the Vicksburg Herald (Dem.)

There can be no doubt now that the attack
of Malone was not justified by his course.
There can be no doubt that he was true to
the combination that elected him, and it was
a grave blunder on the part of the Democrats
to attack him. lie has not only shown there
was no ground for il, he has attacked those
who attacked him with telling effect. He was
given an opportunity such as few get even in
the Senate of the United States. and he made
splendid use of it. lie has demonstrated that
he is fully able to take care of himself and
henceforth he will occupy prominent. influ-
ential place in American politics. Millions OF
Southerners will glory in his spunk, for he
is the first Southern man who successfully
resisted Southern bulldozers and taught them
a lesson. He is the pioneer of tolerance in
the South. and the able advocate of manhood
suffrage. that is as certain as the sun shines
