Tho Electoral Count.

The Eimunds bill practically in its
original form, was taken up in the Senate
last Thursday, and passed With - call
for yeas AMI usys, No pnrty q c,iplat
lines were drawn upon it, although. omr a.
the Democratic Senators were in,pcd 10
th!Ek that the proper remedy consists, no.
in an act of Congress, but in a constitutional
amendment.
The bill as it goes to the House pro-.
vidrS:
|. That the electors in each State shall
meet on the second Monday ia January,
snstead o. December, thus giving more
time to settle any disputes there may be as
to the issue of the popular election 10 the
preceding November at which the electors
were chosen.
2 That each State shall determine by
its own tribunals, ard according to the laws
IN existence ut the time of the election.
any controversy there may be as to hat
rcrsons have been chosen or appointed ns
Presidential electors.
The decision reached by tho proLer
State tribunal is made final, aud it ia Dro.
vided thar tho vote shall be counted by
Congress is cast by the electors thus cou-
firmcd.
4 Whenever only one return is received
bY C"ngress from any State, it cannot be
nJnc,ed except by separate vote of both
Houses.
B. Whenever there arc two returns from
ny Stat. that vote shali be counted hy
Congress which has been confrmcd by the
Lawful Safe trituoal, and whenever
qucstion is raised in Congress az to which

lhr two Houses, acting separately, must
evn"uiicn!ly agree which tribunal is lawful
and which Of tho cop,csting votes shall be

IN ease Of contest which has not been

1t is Gpally provided that if the

taken by either House until tho counting
ne finished.
This III was once before sent to the

The Future Of the Piedmont

We requested Judge Willard to prepare
on article on the outlook of the Piedmont
belt aud he kindly consented to do this
work. Our readers will be interested in
learning what this able jurist thinks of the
future Of the Piedmont belt:
TO ono who has, in the middle days Of
Msrch, left behind tho clustering winds
and harsh chill of the North Atlantic
coast, and has emerged 10 The soft and

TINT makes a land attractive to man. The
future Of this Piedmont country is locked
up 10 the practical solution of the question
that has been p:oroundcd.
The name Piedmont suggests rolling

industrial demngcgues. The ex-
istencelof labor associations is not
the fact of worst import, but the
implication of scch organizations
with political ends and motives.
The laborer and tho capitalists
naturally have opposite interests,
but that opposition becomes dan
gcrous when j, attal3s political
significance. If the south ,aI.
show clear prospect for good
relations between tho employer
and tho employed, capital will
move South by millions instead of
thousands. 70 offer such in
ducements, it must appear that
there is no bad blood between the
laborer aud the employer. If such
Il state Of division exists, not only
will supplies Of labor be uncertain
and unmanagoable, but invested
capital will not DO safe from the
possible consequences Of popular
commotion, Perfect justice be-
tween the employer and the en-
ployed is necessary to produce
such an inviting condition as to
move great capital. The laborer
must have his rights, civil and po-
litical, or dIscord will produce dis
order, and disorder will compel
the angel of peace and prosperity
to say, not yet! If tho people Of
tho Piedmont say to man that
Justice must be done equally to
all, and the rights Of all equally
protected, as sure as there is q,
heaven that rewards just dealing
and sends poverty surely though
slowly in the track of injustice, tho
day Of the prosperity Of this re-
gion Will come, and that quickly.
An impression exists, tending
to delay this happy result, that
certainly is not correct in its ap-
plidation to the people of this
Piedmont belt. 1t is that there
is different Interpretation of
what constitutes good fellowship
fer the homo born and for the
stranger. To meet this impress
sion it is ofno use to discuss the
general state Of feeling between
the North and South. The qucs-
ton is how the people who breathe
the free air Of the mountains !rcl
towards those who como among
them, not to cheat and steal, but
to help build the waste places.
''hoso from abroad who have
practically tested the question
know thai the hearts ofthc people
here, as mass, arc sound on this
subject; but it is time that the
press Of this section should speak
for tho people, and for them
alone, and what they say will be
believed.

In whispers soft and low.

Forlmuch had he to say

That 1 shall never more,
Sit at his side, at twilight hour,
When daily tolls arc DER.
But he will consolation find
Before that Throne OF Grace,
Whore shall coon be called to stand,
And see my Majors face.
When to my mother you shall speak
about this bloody fray,
Tell her in soft and gentle tones
What happened here to day.
Tell her when death was on my brow,
And life was ebbing fast,
Her many earnest prayers for me,
Were with me to the last.
Tell her l ask her not to grievo
For me, her pctted boy;
But let her sad aud sorrowiug tears,
Give place to smiles of JOY.
That l rcjoiced to give my life,
On this eventful day,
Though on the field for miles around
The dead and dying lay.
Tell my sister that in death
Of her fondIy thought,
And longcd once more to hear her voice
With 90 much music fraught.
That when upon Manassas field

So many miles away.

Aud gently raised his head,
And mournfully wiped off tear

Origin Of Gin.

Nearly 260 years ago the Count de
Merret, son Of Henry w. of France,
invented or brought into palatable
condition, juniper wine, which wsl
found cheap and easy to make,
pleasant to drink, and very useful as
medicine for every one suffering
from dropsy or any other disease
which requires that the kidneys
should be encouraged to do their
work efficiently. The wine soon
came into use, but, being found to
be too much of = medicine for
persons who were not invslIds to
care about taking it ia large quaint
ties, u Dutch professor. Mynheer
Sylvius, of Leyden, who died TWO
centuries ago, discovered a process
for converting the juice of the juni.
per berries into liquor which had
ali the medicinal properties OF juni-
per juice and grape wine and was at
the same time more suitable for
general uee, and, as the French
word for juniper is gsnievere. the new
spirit came TO be called Geneva, the
Capital of Switzerland.
The invention came, not from
Switzerland, but from Hcliaud, and
TO this circumstance, and to the act
that for very long time it was prin-
cipally manufactured in that country,
both it and the similar liquor which
now goes with us by the name OF
gin are often called Hollands. The
original Geneva is very different
from both Hollands and gin. 1t is
a spirit formed by the fermentation
of juniper berries by Themselves,
which contsin peculiar ssccharine
principle, yielding alcohol TO the
extent OF SO per cent. OF he entire
substance termented, along with
about l per cent. OF very powerful
essential oil, which is the real meG
icsl element OF the liquor.
The cd Geneva soon came into
fashion, and frem being made and
sold exclusively by the drug gists,
began to be sold 10 larger quaint
ties by ordinary distillers, until
they found it convenient to develop
new trade by adding a certain
quantity OF juniper juice to ordinary
formed spirits, and thus to produce a
YET more palAtsble beverage for the
use of healthy people. This bever.
age also took the name Geneva,
TO seDarate il from the
Juniper spirit, the more apprc pirate
name OF Holland was applied to it,
and it's manufacture rapidly became
3 very important branch of business,
in Sehiedam, where now
there are about 176 distilleries, nearly
as many az are to be met in Rotter-
dam, Amsterdam, Gonda and all the
other Dutch towns. Every gin
1istillery has a recipe of its OVID,
which is Usually kept secret.
A large variety OF substances is
in the faYoripg oil gin,
Among others may be mentioned
bitter almonds, turpsntine, creosote,
'ardamons, garlic, Canada balsam,
lorse-raddish, grains OF psrdisee
cayenne pepper and many herb,
and seeds. Perhaps nothing used az
diet by men is liable to greater or
more injurious adulterstion than
lin, and the difficulty of getting it
'ure from any poisonous drug should
induce everyone to abstain from it.
