NOBODY can charge that the anti Bourbon Con-
gresSmen fr m Virginia are narrow minded par
tisans. They were elected as Democrats, they at.
tend the Grccnback conferences, and they vote
with the Rcpublicans.-Neto York Tribune.
The Virginia Readjusters were not
elected as Democrats, and they have par
ticipated in no Greenback conference.
They voted'on organization just as they
had long before decided to do, and it is
contemptibly mean for any paper pre-
tending to Repubicanism to reproduce
the spiteful utteances of their enemies
against them.

The Meridian Miss Mercury is n
Bourbon-Democratic organ. It's editor
writes for home consumption, and not
for the Senate galleries in Washington.
The NATIONAL REPUBLICAN has been
much complained of by Bourbon lead
ers for asserting that any but
mild and gentle methods pre-
vailed in Southern elections. Some
of the milk-and-water Republicans
have thought it unhandsome to speak so
harshly of Bourbons and Bourbon prac-
tices. For the information of these gen.
tie friends we copy the following from
the Meridian Mercury of the 11th instant:
There is to be a special election held throughout
the county the Goth instant, 10 ill the vacancy
in the county assessors Office caused by the death
OF AleCk Harvey. The voters will see the names
of several good men announced in the Mercury MS
aspirnns for the position. II is to be hoped that
the negroes who usually vote Mt Marion will
have the dclicacy to stay away from the
polls on that day; and, II they must vote,
go to some other place to do II. They are free
TO go where they please to vote, but the Merc,ryS
advice TO them is to stay away from Marion the
scene Of their murGerous election exploit there
Our ndvice to white voters is to go there prepared
and with strength enough TO compel q peaceablo
election 1t is not probable that the negroes will
try 1t on again with their leaders dispersed in
Jail. If the MercurVs wish--and ndvice-could be
gratihed, there would not be a single fifteenth
Amendment vote put in the box that day Boys
do you hear that? Then heed.
We call the attention of the Mississippi
Senators and Representative to the fore.
going. Unless they can produce some
published Democratic dissent from
the sentiments therein contained
it will be very hard for them to con-
vince the Representatives of the
Northern States, of any party, that
the Bourbon Democracy of the State OF
Mississippi are law-abiding class. II
they will show any rebuke of the afro
cious utterances above quoted by any
Democratic newspaper in good and
regular standing we shall cheerfully
make room for it.

Cable adyices have been received at 81, Paul,
Minnesota, that the widow OF Ossian T..
Dodge has at last found her children, who have
been secreted in England since the death of her
husband, under provision of his will, and that
the ChRncery Court has awarded their custody TO
the mother. The testimony upon which the de-
csion was based was taken in 81. Paul and for
warded TO England, and tended 10 disprove the
charges of depravity alleged against the lady. The

Divorce proceedings were pending at the time of

A SMALL duty on tea would suffice to
defray the expense of such additional
rank and pay as are recommended for
the Marine Corps. This tax would be
unpopular, it is true, but every good old
dame who sips that cheering cup would
find its flavor improved by the reflection
that the enhanced cost augmented our
national glory by piling honors and
emoluments on class of officials whose
Splendid achievements are not ecipsed
by anything in the annals of Terpsichore.
IF the robust editor of the Cincinnati
Commercial would locate himself for few
hours on quarter day in pension Office
he would be able to understand that the
money is not, as a rule, paid ont TO frauds.
Doubtless there are men drawing pen
sions who are not fairly entitled to do so,
but it is equally true that some thousands
who ought to be on the pension rolls
have not been able to present the neces-
sary proofs.

Lizzie Hatch died in this town last
Saturday, at the advanced age of 81
years. The history of this woman is
singular. She came from Massachusetts,
to Vermont so years ago, since which
time she has continually .ramped through
the country-most of the time in the
southern and western part of this county
gathering balsams and selling salves.
She was never a charge upon any town
until last year. when Peacham gave a
little for her support. About two weeks
before her death she came to Mr.. John
I'll. Gilfllan's, where she was taken sick,
and where she was kindly cared for dur
ing her last illness. Miss Hatch was
very reticent about her early history,
and it is not known that she left rela-
tive in the world. 1t is supposed she
was disappointed In love matters in
early life, and that she took this method
to '.leave the world instead of taking
cold poison or the cold waves. She was
always considered respectable woman.
and scores of those who read this paper
have given her shelter and food during
her long pilgrimage.-Caledo'ai

Melissa Kendall had paralytic shock
