OUR STRASBURG LETTER
SrRAsBURG, Oct. 26, 1882


Mr.. EDITOR Our little village
was thrown into quite state of con-
sternation on Wednesday evening last
by the intelligence that Mr.. John Fred:
Balthis. one of our most estimable and
highly esteemed citizens, suddenly
dropped dead in the street. He was
apparently in good health up to the
time of his death. He was seen to
fall by black man, and before any
assistance could be rendered (Mr. By
ron Lemley. of your place, being one
of the frat to reach him), he expired.
Mr.. B. was about sixty years of age, a
consistent member Of the M. E. Church
South, and was born in this place.
Mr.. John Supinger, while attempt
ing to remove an old load from a gun,
had one of his fingers severely cut by
the ball when the piece was prema-
turely discharged.
The disease among hogs, which had
become an epidemic in this nelghbor'
hood. has somewhat abated since the
weather has become cooler.
The house of Mr.. Charles Whiting
ton, on Cedar Greek, was burned OF
Wednesday of last week. Nearly al
the furniture was consumed with tn
house. Insurance $500.
We learn that the Evangelical Lu
theran congregation here will nave
pastor in charge about the first of De
cember next. Yours, X.

Cheerful Homes.

"Mrs. Joe was very clean housekeeper,
but. had the exquisite art of making her
cleanliness more unacceptable than dirt
itself''-Dickens.
Now that the season will soon be
with us for closed doors and bright
fires. we want to say few words upon
the necessity of sunshine. IL is often
the case with our very best housekeep-
ers to sweep and dust the brightest
room in the house, and then carefully
exclude every ray of health-giving
sunlight, as though its slightest con,
tact would cause disease. But it will
fade the carpet, says Madam Careful
ness, while with uphfted hands of dis
NAV, Dame Economy cries, The fur
niture won't last the year out-and if
we let the sunshine in we can exclude
father and the boys; then there is the
mud to sweep from the carpet, to say
nothing Of the disorder the children
bring. Oh, no it can't be thought
off, So the best, the brightest and
most comfortable of our belongings are
collected in this room which is cleaned
so carefully-then closed until a ia
vored guest shall chance to come. I've
often thought of the poor little chill.

ATTENTION is called to the fact that
the law requires at the election to be
held on the 7th, a vote to be taken on
the repeal of that certain constitutional
provision which requires the payment
of the head tax as the qualification to
the exercise of the ballot for the year
preceding any particular election
The vote will be for or against the re-
peal, and the law requires that the
ballot in this case shall be separate
and distinct ballot from that bearing
the names of the candidates for Con-
gress, and that this ballot,fo or against
the repeal of such constitutional pro
vision, shall be deposited in a separate
ballot box. 1t is the duty of TIE clerk
of the county court to notify the ott
GERS conducting the election that {
separate ballot box be provided for thu
different precincts of the county. i
is important that this matter be at
tended to. SO that each voting precinc
be provided with two ballot boxes fo
this election.

A MARKED revolution of sentiment
is now going on in this county with
respect to the issues involved in the
present campaign. If the good work
continues, the Boss will not have a
corporal's guard among the white vo-

even the colored voters are not solid

The Game of Brag

Since Ohio has gone from the Re-
publican grasp, and New York and
Pennsylvania are surely going, the
Republican Campaign Committee has
turned its attention and its money to
saving all it can from the wreck in the
two last named States. Thus Malone
is threatened to be left out in the cold
and to be abandoned to his own re-
sources. To avoid this disaster he is
trying his old game of brag. He tells
the Republican Committee that the
salvation Of the party depends upon
Republican success in Virginia; that
here is the hopeful field that he will
carry the State for Wise by 10000
majority, and will elect six or seven
out of the ten members for this State.
His object is a double one: first, to
encourage the bread and butter bril-
gade to another charge; and to en-
| courage the Republican Committee to
supply the money to charge on.
But all this is too thin. Malone
tried exactly the same game two years
ago, and made dismal failure. Thif
is what he wrote just on the eve of the
election of 1880:
