A MOTHER AND HER CHILDREN
STARVED TO DEATH.-Little Rock,
Ark., July IA woman and two chill
dren were found starved to death in a
lonely section of Van Buren, county, in
the mountains. It is believed the wo-
man fell sick, and the children being
too young to secure aid for her, persisted
miserably. A third child was still
alive, and had gnawed piece of flesh
from the arm of one of her dead sisters.
1t died soon after the discovery was
made.

More than one thousand so-called
"illicit' distilleries are seized every year,
on an average Commissioner Raum' S
report of 1880 stated that in fifty-two
months 7 $50 persons had been arrested
for 'iilicis distiiEing," and that 26 officers
anu ampioyes of the Government had
been killed 81, wounded iDi'ryinglto en-
force the Internal revenue laws! Think

law are not mdlo IN sc, hui s,iefely malta
2orohibitd- are not real offsnces or
crimes, but crimes made SUCH by The
law itself. Two thousand persons ar
rested annually for making or selling
apple or peach brandy, or whiskey. or
tobacco!
There is no earthly necessity for the
continuance of these odious laws. The
Government can easily collect as much
revenue as it needs from other sources.
It would hardly be an exaggeration to
say that but for the internal reyenue
officials TiIdeu would have been inau-
gurated President in 1877 and Hancock,
or some other Democrat, in 1881.
Let the Democrats every where come
out for the abolition of all Internal taxes.

CITIZEN OF STAUNToN SERIOUSLY AND.
IT Is FEARED. FATALLY INJURED.-At
Waynesboro', yesterday morning. about 8
o'clock Mr.. Charles Hutcheson. of this city, q
brakeman on the Chesapeake and Ohio Rail-
way, and brother of our worthy citizens,
Messrs. James A. and Geo. A. Hutcheson. met
with a serious. and, 1t is feared fatal accident
1t seems that the cars were loaded with iron
rails for the road, and that some of them pro-
jected from the end of the car, and that when
Hutcheson was in the act of coupling the cars
his head was caught between the projecting
rails In one car and the forward car, which
mashed his head in such manner as to infiict
serious. if not fatal injuries. He was put upon
an excursion train which passed soon after the
accident, and was brought to his home in this
city, where he is now lying in quite a precari-
Gus condition. He is a married man, and Is
in the 25th years of his age.
P.S.-Since the above was put in type. we
are sorry to state that Mr.. Hutchinson died
about one o'clock yesterday afternoon, and will
be buried at Waynesboro' to-day-Tuesday-
beside his sister, Miss M J. Hutchinson, who
was buried there last April a year ago.
This is really very sad case. and his family
and relatives and friends have the sincere
sympathy of this whole community.

were charging ten cents q bucketful to defray

THE STATE DEBT.-Al questions
connected with the public debt of Vir-

on that issue Judge Wellfnrd's decis-

in another, will have to undergo the
scrutiny of higher court. But after
all, the Supreme Court of the United
Stated will be the final arbiser. What
ever this last court orders to be done
will se done by the Administratian par
ty in Virginia. 1t goes without saying
that HE Administration or Republican
party would not dare to treat with con-
tempt the decisions of that august tribu
nal On the other hand, the Democrats
will be more than willing to let the Su-
preme Court of the United States pro-
tect the debt which they vainly endeav-
nred to save, or, if that court should
deem it better, declare that twenty mil
lions of dollars is all that Virginia ought
to pay. Let us have peace on the

The BARGAIN CLOSED.--The bill app
propriating $4,000 for the erection of
public buildings at this place, passed the
House of Representatives on Monday
last, and is now q law. This is evident-
~ the price paid by the Repu blicans for
the safe and faithful delivery, by Mr..
Paul. of the Democracy of this the 18th
District of Virginia, into the hands of
the Administration. It only remains
to be seen whether he will be able to de-
liver the goods The Radics: party may
be able to buy few individual men,
but when they undertake to buy the
Democracy of whole district, and pay
for them with their own money, taken
from the treasury of the United States,
it is quite different thing. The pre-
sent Congress has been unusually liberal
in appropriat!ng money to the Southern
States, believing that, like themselves,
the people Of that section lave no sent
ments aud convictions which eaunot be
changed BY the almighty dollar. They
have sought so long and stfiven so earns
estly to get control of the money bags of
the government that now. when there
is an indication of their losing their hold
they will spend all the money in the
q. S. treasury, if by SO doing they can
bold the keys of the money box. This
whole business Of appropriations is too
transparent to fool the honest citizens of
this district Rockingham Register.

INJURIOUS SHADE TREES -Attcntion has
been lately called in the columns of Les
Mopes to the injurious effects on health that
are apt to follow residence near the com
mon shade tree known as the button ball"
or plane tree. The fact has long been
known that stay near these trees is often
followed by an irritation of the air passages,
followed by a disagrceabe and sonnet ines
persistent cough. This is due to the fact
familiar to botanists, that the young shoots,
leaves and stipulcs are covered with a thick
Tine down, composed of minute branched
rigid hairs, which falls off as the parts be-
come oderand often floats in the air in large
quantities. 1t is the inhalation of this that
causes the throat difficulties in question.
Besides this it frequently causes serious all
noyancc to employees in nurseries where
the tree is raised unless suitable precaution
is taken against it.

LAPLAND.--In Lapland the sun never
goes down during May, June and July p; but,
in winter, for two months, he never rises at
all. His place, however, is somewhat sup
piled by the wonderful Northern Li.hts,
which flash and flicker in the gray skies.
They look like fires of thousand shapes
and colors. Now like clowns. and now like
domes; now like flashing nets, and now like
streamers Of silk; now like arches, and now
like banners--these welcome. guests make
night beautiful.
As long as the unwearied sun goes round
and round the sky in summer, the Lap
ladders live in tents made OF poles and
skinks; but when Jack Frost approaches.
with scowl on his brow, the house of thick
sodS becomes very snug home. The Lap
lander crccpS into it ON all tours, along
sort Of tunnel. A hole in the roof lets in a
little daylight, or rather moonlight, and lets
out what smoke there is from the sootv
lamp. The lamp is made of stone, and
filled with seal oil, and it answers many
purposes. 1t cooks food, dries wet clothes,
keeps the the house warm, and affords
light.
Tho Laplander likes brandy but happily for
him. 1t is very scarce He has often to be con-
Ven'tu Win shuh instead OF which he tax rs, You
may he sure, many good pinch. For nine months
OF the year the ground is of Il dazzling whieness,
and the cold IS intense. In July and August, on
the contrary, the heat is almost ntolerabc.
The Laplanders are very small nation. Per-
haps there are not above seven thousand of
them. Part of them are called Reindeer Lap
andcrs, and part Fishing Laplandcrs." The
former live on their herds, some possessing many
hundreds; the latter dwell near the lakes and
hords. The greatest plague Of Lapand is plague
OF gnats. Their numbers are incredible.
