Mr.. II. CoNRLTNG Is finding more than
one Roland for his Oliver. A scribe by the
name of +. w. Whitridgc has undertaken
to dissect Roscoc's claims to greatness in the
| International Reriew. He has gonc labor
iously, so he says, through all the documents
and records of the Senate and House to find
out just wherein Mr.. C.'s superiority con-
ssts. He comes to something like the fol-
lowing conclusions:
"Mr.Conkling in the House served upon the
Reconstruction Committee, but was author
of none of the important measures proposed
by it; in the Senate he has served upon the
leading committees, but is not the author of
II single one of the great measures of his
time. His admirers, In answer TO inqui-
ries recently made, have, so far as appears,
claimed for him the authorship of only
three important laws. These are the pres
ent law governing the election of United
States Senators, the law confirming the til
ties of prc-cmptors and settlers to lands
along the lines of railroads claiming lands
from the Government, and the trademark
law. OF these, the latter was declared un-
constitutional as soon rs IL got before the
courts, and the Others were amendments to
old laws, and he had nothing to do with
proposing or carrying either the laws or
the amendments On the whole, his ac
tual services as proposcr or forwarder of
legislation might have been rendered
equally we'll by any of fifty men who could
be picked from the New York or Massachu-
setts legislature
Furthermore, we are told that Mr.. c. took
no part of any consequence in financial legis-
lation. "In the evils arising from the con-
dition of the South he has been deeply in
terested, but rather rs party weapons than
as questions for his solution and 1t is an
historical fact that those evils have dimin-
ished in proportion as the use Of the reme-
dies advocated by Mr.. Conkling has been
discontinued. As lawyer, Mr.. Conkling
has appeared in only six cases in the Su-
prcme Court since 1862, in two of which his
political position may have had something
to do with his being retained; in the court
ofappeals of New York State he has had but
five cases, and two of these may be called po-
litical. His last appearance, in the People
VS.. Dennison, covered him in the eyes of the
profession here with ridicule."
Mr. Whitridge evidently has some strong
and wcll-defned views, expressed, perhaps,
with too much force. Nobody ever yet has
had the audacity to call Mr.. Conkling n
very signal and furious statesman. He in
vents men, and not measures. He discov-
ers and nurses into prominence what he re-
CARDS available candidates for party and
public honors, but he loses no sleep on in
vesting them with original principles. His
power is confined to the manufacture of
flesh and blood instruments to carry out his
will, but he will never add anything to the
Constitution and Bylaws.

on last Thursday night, in honor of Mr.. and Mrs. B
F. Price. a splendidly enjoyable affair. There
were between forty and fifty guests, including per-
of all ages and that whole sociability
characteristic of the Jackson people ruled the hour
One pleasant feature of the Reception the attend

Poor, Clara Dickson, Jennie Aten, Minnie Farrar,
Adele Matthews, Lola Williams, Kate Bum, BERTHE

and Gettie Tripp Nettie Chesnut and Caddie Atkin-
son, There were three members of the class absent
Gettie Sutherland, Jessie Bryant and Eva Gil1land.
These young ladies certainly form fne-looking a
class any could desire to teach, and Frank is
justly proud of them, while they to hold tn cir
teacher in the highest esteem.
To spend an evening at the residence of Mr.. and
Mrs. WILL Price, is to enjoy ones self to the utmost.
As the evening and when the guests had all
arrived, Miss Adele Matthews took her place the
organ, and the young ladies' assisted by their
teacher. and Adam w. Long entertained those pres
ent with some excellent vocal music.
Then the pleasant face of Will. Price, appearing
from the direction of the dining-room awakened a
new interest. and shortly there general move

Prices supervision, splendid collation. had been
prepared. Here all the substantials and deica

to being able and eloquent preachers, genial,
whoe-soued gentleman in the social circle and they
added greatly to the enjoyment of the evening.
After supper, there was instrumental music-violin
and organ-by Mr.. Price and Miss Matthews, and
vocal music, accompanied by Miss Kate Bum on the
violin. And thus, with music and conversation the
pleasant evening passed on, until the approach of

The groom-Frank Price-donned his overcoat to
cort some of the young ladies home. When the

he found that the groom in his excitement. had
taken ''the old MANS coat. But Long equal to
the occasion Looking at the place where he had left
his coat, he soliloquized thus "Nfisfortunes

Death of Nancy Osborne.
1 see the dark Death Angel fly,

Again see the dark Death Angel fly,
1 hear the swift rush of his wings;
Strong hearts are aching, while swift he goes by,
With the terror and sorrow he brings.
Again to the same broken field does he come,
And gathers, with merciless hand
Another bright sheaf from this sorrowing home,
And bears it away from the land.
Away, swift away, has the Death Angel flown
Away with that spirit bright;
With love has he placed 1t before the great throne,
All bathed in a heavenly light.
Not in vain the Great Reaper his dread visit makes
Not in vain leaves pathway of gloom;
For, every bright flower that from us he takes
Shall through all Eternity bloom.
While the lonely companion still tarries below,
And awaits the great call that will come,
He khews that ere long God will call him to go
And meet with his loved ones at home.
flowers,
Transplant them with tenderest care
Though doomed to meet Death in this sad world of
ours,
They shall live through Eternity there.

JOHN DICUs called on Saturday to ask our ad-
vice as to where to dispose of that pointer dog.
John says he has heard a rumor that there is a
little knot of men in town who sit up night
after night playing whist and "poker," and
have scarcely time to go to their meals. John
thinks OF having the dog made into ''bologna"
or twienerwurst," and presenting it, in solid
chunks, to the hungry gamblers. We don't
know but John is right. A man who will sit up
all night gambling, ought not to object to eat
ing hashed dog.
