SAD CASE OF INSANITY.
Result of Wrapping Snake
Around a Little Grips Neck.
Bloomington Special to the Cincinnati Com
T1arcjnf

Bloomington Special to the Cincinnati Com
ntercidi.
About as sad case as has lately fallen
under your correspondents notice oc-
Cured in this (Monroe) county, and
should be written up as a warning to
vicious boys, if that class are supposed
to ever heed warnings. A. J. Payne, of
Salt Creek Township, has bright and
pretty little daughter of seven years, who
attended the district school in the neigh.
borhood of her fathers farm. On a
pleasant morning about four years ago,
while on her way to school the girl was
met by vicious neighbor boy, three or
four years older than herself, and who
had dead black snake, which he carried
on stick. He thrust the dead snake in
to the girls face. and she was so terr fed
she could not run away. Then be took
the snake and wrapped it around her
neck and shoulders and ran off leaving
her thus environed She shook the rep
tile off and hastened on to school. The
child was greatly agitated during the en-
tire forenoon, and when she returned
home her parents, greatly alarmed, urged
her to tell them what had occurred, for
her conduct was wild and strange. She
gave the story in disjointed manner,
shrieking out frequently, Take the
snake awayl" By night her reason was
wreck, and has so remained ever since.
For four years she has recognized no
one, but daily sat with her little slate on
her lap, marking out the same figures che
had been given as lesson at school on
the fateful day on which the vicious boy
placed the dead snake about her, and
this monetony was Only broken at times
when she would cry out, Take the
snake away" Hoping that medical
science might possibly do something fer
the relief of his daughter, Mr. Payne
took her to the State ASYLUM at Indian
apolis few weeks ago. The physicians
of the institution last week wrote him
there was only faint hope for his beau
tiful child, and she will probably end her
days an occupant of the Asylum for the
Incurable Insane.

The Claims Of the Negro Race to Place
in President GarfieId's Cabinet

SAVANNAH, GA, February 1.-Editor
Morning Ne,Os: Will you allow me, through
the columns Of your very popular journal,
to say something ia regard to what is being
so much talked about in the public press,
that is the placing of cGlored man in the
Cabinet Of James A. Garfield, President
elect?
We, as a race, do not demand position
In the department Of the General Govern
ment simply on account of color, but we
ask for representation in the government
as a right. Every other nationality
has It, and why not we? We repre-
sent one-tenth OF the population of this
great and growing republic, pay taxes in
proportion to our wealth, and poll eight
hundred thousand votes. Now, are we to
continue to support party, and help keep
It In power. because It bears the name Of
having given the right of suffrage to five
millions OF its subjectsy It was only right
and Just that they should have had it, after
they fought for it, although 1t was not given
them until it became a necessity.
| cannot see why any set of voters should
be compelled to sustain and keep party In
power, when 1t fails to accord to, aud give
them that recognition which belongs to them
as a part and parcel Of this great Union.
L is true, great many of our prominent
statesmen have said that it IS too soon for
US to demand oCr rights as American ciu-
zsns, and we are not taken iuto considera-
ton in the great contests between the two
parties during campaign, but the question
is always asked by the press, How will the
Irish 90? How about the German vote? but
n0fbiGg is ever said or asked how the negro
will 90, until you hear some one say, "Oh,
well. ne is compelled 10 vote the Republican
ticket"
For sixteen years we have stood nobly by
the colors OF the Republican party, but If
we fail TO get proper recognition of our
rights from the President-eiect, we will
know what to do In the future. We do not
say we will join the Democratic party, but
We will have the balance of power and
make such terms as will enable US to pro-
cure &c representation In the departments Of
the General Government.
How was it that Hon. Carl SehurZ became
a Cabinet officer? Because the Germans
demanded to be represented in that body,
and he, being the most available one, was
appointed. IL Is true that there are some
cOlored men in the employment Of the
government, but how many of them Ill first
class positions? Not one. They do not
even occupy second class places.
la this State how many of the first class
HOoAt4Ouc oAC AAAC0 tDf OO4IAC0 ACEs WI
any, and yet there are as many as ten really
good places.
Some say we cannot give the bond re-
quired. Just try some Of us and let us
see.
Noble man and true,
High low, old or young, wherever you may be,
Awake arise, cast of this lethargy,
Your ancient faith renew,
And set your hands to do the task
That freemen have TO do.
PRoGREss.

There is a wealth of hidden and visi-
bic treasure all along the line of the
Alabama and Great Southern Railroad
from Chattanooga to Birmingham, dis
tance of 142 miles On the Lookout
Mountain side of the narrow valley
through which the road runs is coal, and
on the right or Sand Hill side is iron.
Rich indications of this wealth may
often be seen from the car window. The
coal is in seams or strata from one to
twelve feet in thickness, and extends
back into and apparently through the
mountain. On the other side, the range
seems 10 be composed of iron ore alone,
the hill being as bare as though there was
not even soil enough to support shrub
berry sufficient to hide its bleak and naked
sides. all along the very road bed ore
rich enough to yield seventy-f1ye pounds
of pig metal to the hundred pounds OF
ore is so plentiful as to be gathered up by
the wagon load, the ton, the car load. or
even the ship load, from the very sur
face, almost without the use OF the pick:
Large amounts are so gathered ana
stacked along the track, according to the
convenience of farmers, miners and
others living along the line. In places
many carloads thus collected are gathered
by trains sent from Chattanooga for the
purpose. Between the schedule time OF
other trains these cars are filled, hauled
and delivered at the blast furnaces, thus
making profitable pursuit for hundreds
of people, and leaving ample room for
the employment of thousands more.
