We have arrived at the conclu-
sion that no one but the man who
has tried it, can thoroughly appre-
ciate the discomfort of being forced to
move his family and his earthly
goods and chattels from one end OF
the town to the other, through rain,
mud and slosh. But the utter woe OF
being stopped by dozen men on
the street who ask you why you
did not select Il more favorable day
for movingl-ye gods and Iittlefshes
The very thought is too awfully
utter to contemplate The editor Of
this paper has moved his family
from the Morris property on Main
street to the residence of Rev. A.
w. Wilson, in the northeast end of
town, which has heretofore been oc-
eupicd by Mrs. Capt. Chas. Il.
Thomas, who has removed to
Knoxville.

Our Masonic friends Of the Bean
Station Valley suffered a very seri-
Gus loss last Thursday night IN the
destruction by fire of their hand
some Hall, situated near Tate's
Spring. The building had not been
erected many years and originally
cost about 81 800. The fire is sup
posed to be the work of an incendi-
airy as the flames first broke out in
the upper story, where no fire had
been kept for some two weeks. If
such be the case, it is to be hoped
the dastardly perpetrator may be
discovered and brought to justice.

VIM. Locke, the mail carrier on
the cambridge and Knoxville route,
absconded Tuesday night of last
week, carrying with him $50 be-
longing to Mr.. Jos. Eaton, assistant
postmaster at Mounts Y Roads,
which he had sent to Knoxville.
No one had mistrusted him, and he
had been frequently trusted with
valuables, having carried at differ
ent times as much as $500 back and
forth, but we suppose his reason for
not taking it then was because he
did not need money as bad as he
did on this occasion.

How the Peoples Money is Squ0n.
dered.

DIR. Henkle, in his speech at the
Democratic meeting in Annapolis,
showed how the peoples money has
been squandered by the last Legisla-
ture. He said
The law forbids more than seven
eff the officers Of the previous Legis-
lature to attend the organization of a
new one, and specifies who they shall
be. Yet, in direct and open violation
OF the law. ttCenty-three attended and
were paid by the officers of the treas
ury S2,251 90. This was an open and
fragrant violation Of plain statute,
and cannot be defended or excused.
One hundred and FIVE officers and
attaches were required to wait upon
one hundred and eleven members,
and their compensation amounted to
81 ,427 more than the mileage and per
diem of all the Senators and Dele
gates of both houses. This was re-
form with vengeance.
The Senate has rs members and
had SO employees, besides chaplains.
Their pay was S2l $500; that of the
Senators S13, 94l 90.
They had FIVE door keepers and
only one door to keep, and alike
bountiful supply of attendants in all
departments.
In the House the same extraya-
gance prevailed.
Six door-keepers and only 2 doors
t. keep.
Four messengers ; 9 keepers of the
committee rooms.

Carpenter S490-what for?
Eight folders. S3,976.00-( two boys

houses.)
Eight committee clerks. Not work

Ten newspaper reporters having no
earthly connection with the House,

IT, list.
This exhibit is certainly bad, but

The Baltimore Gazette, the organ
of the Democratic ring in Maryland,
treats Governor Hamilton and his
friends in the following disrespectful
style:
Directions to housekeepers and
tax payers-How to cook Reform
Catch fat office-holder, lift him ten
derby out of his salary and per-
quisites and simmer him gently ever
a slow examination of his official
conduct. Disregard his claims and
the solicitations of his friends until
patriotism begins to rise to the sur
face. Skim it off, and then set him
out in the cold until he gets tender
and patriotic. Then stuff him with
false facts and false statistics about
corruption season to taste with per
s0nal abuse and serve him hot before

in his own way, upon his own re-
sponsibility, and in his own good
time, decide what his next step
should be. On the same day Senator
Platt left for New York and returned
Sunday night.
Now, the theory is, that before
Platt left for New York, himself and
Conklng made up their minds to
take the decisive step which culmi-
mated Monday. 1t is evident, too,
that Platt consulted with the friends
of Conkling in New York as to the
situation and to make sure that the
legislature would promptly re-elect
them if they resigned.

A decision. of considerable interest
to farmers, has been made by Judge

where farmer hires laborer for a

the time expires, the employer is not
bound by law to pay the employee

revenue of less than $50 year, was

now be dCne for about $40 year.
Another route bringing in less than

The Richmond State, the Bourbon

The Richmond State, the Bourbon
organ of Virginia, is in a state of
mind over the political situation in

white people could prove recreant in
their duty to their race and join with
the men whose power we had broken

A Washington dispatch of the 18th
says those most indignant over Sen
ater Conkling's course are his per-
sonal friends. These say that he
should have advised them of the
step he was about to take, inasmuch
as his own and Senator Platt's retire
ment leaves the Democrats in posses
sion of the Senate. Conkling's side
meets this with the declaration that
neither of the New York Senators
are under obligations to either the
President or the Senate. Certainly

Another statement touching last

Conkling found he was beaten; il
was developed that Judge Robertson
would certainly be confirmed, for the
President would not withdraw him.
Logan, who had stood by Conkling
up till then, told him that he would
be compelled to vote for Robertson

Conkling told Logan he had done

The New York Tribune says no
