Suffering LabOrers.

A few weeks ago we made an appeal
in these columns in the behalf Of our
destitute farmers and laborers We
never aim to color too highly pictures
Of suffering among our fellows. The
plain truth is lamentable enough.
In the attempt not to overdraw the
suffering that exists, we fell into the
sn"r Of making it too light.
Since then facts have come out,
throwing more light on the real con
dition Of large numbers of our poor
farm lsborers
A public meeting has been held in
one county Of Tennessee, calling up-
on the Governor Of that State for aid
Rev. Vim. H. CASTOR, whose testi-
mony is valuable, in his correspond
ence to this journal, represents a sad
state of actual want among thu mas
sss. Private information of families
reduced to heggary reaches us from
different sections.
This week we reprint from the
Gl,te further information on the sub
jsct, given by Hon. Jas. I. Rapier, who
travels extensively, is himself farm
sr, and certainly knows whereof he
spesks.
Looking these ugly facts in the face,
We feel it our duty to the public to
call attention to them, and to make a
further appeal to our merchants and
land owners to meet the crisis.
Will our landlords reduce their
sentsf And will not the merchants
furnish supplies at less exorbitant
ntes? While it ~ not yet too late,

Who Giyeth tue Increase

There is much talk of a new politi-
cal party in the South. But those
who do this talking do not understand
the situation.
Southern soil is never very product
i've of schisms and sects, and such
scions, when transplanted, pine away
to death. When the Southern heart
becomes welded to an idol, it has a
wonderful degree of fidelity and holds
on and on with death-grip. Gener-
ations come and go. leaving as their
heirlooms the same creeds, religious
traditions and prejudices.
1t is the same in politics. The
South of to-day bows down to jackson
and worships at the shrine OF Jeffer-
son.
When you talk Of new party In
the South, you talk Of an innovatlon'
As the situation now stands, no new
party Of any consequence can be form
ed. The Democratic party, composed
entirely Of whites, has obtained full
control Of the South, by force and
fraud. 1t tramples under foot the
Republican organization, which Is
made up Of colored and white voters
the colored out numbering the whites
nine to one.
Now where is the new party to come
from? The party i'll power is not go
ing to disband. Neither can coall
ton of disafected members from both
of the old parties be formed large
enough to command any great lnfiu-
ence.
1t was not done in Virginia. Without
the Republican support, Malone, IN
stead of being hated and feared for
the power he now wields. would be
laughed at and derided. SO the new
power in Virginia is really the Repub-
lican party.
The lesson which the facts of the
situation teaches is. that the only hope
of the overthrow Of Bourbon rule in the
South lies in the Republican party,
or the strength which composes it.
New leaders may come to the front,
new issues and names displace the
present order of things, yet they all
must rest upon the Republican strength
for a foundation. From the outlook
now, it seems that this will be the
case as long as the two great parties
remain unbroken outside OF the South.
No policy is wise one which lg
nores these facts. Political castle,
built by rejecting Southern Republi
cans are indeed airy nothings.
Malone may plant in the South
and Administration water with Fed.
eral patronage, but Republican voter:
aoue giveth the increase.

GOOD COFFEE,

Everybody wants 1t, but very few get It,
because most people do not know how to
select coffee, or it is spoiled in the roasting
or making. To obviate these difficulties
has been our study. Thurber's package
coffees are selected by an expert who un-
derstands the art Of blending various fla
vors. They are roasted in the most perfect
manner lit is impossible to roast well in
small quantities., then put in pound pack
ages (in the bean, not groat,ad) bearing our
signature as guarantee of genuineness,
and each package contains the Thurber
recipe for making good Coffee. We pack
two kinds, Thurber's "No. a." strong
and pungent; Thurber's "No. A." mild
and rich. One or the other will suit every
taste. They have the three great points,
good quality, honest quantity, reasonable
price. Ask your Grocer for Thwber's
roasted Coffee IN pound packages, "No. "a"
on "No. Al Do not be put off with any
other kind-your own palate will tell you
what is best.
Where persons desire it, we also furnish
the "Ideap' Coffee-pot, the simplest, best
and cheapest coffee-pot in existence.
Grocers who sell our Coffee keep them.
Ask for descriptive circular.

A Decided Agony.

A young man from the best circles in
New Haven started out last evening to
call on a lady friend, a very proper and
laudable exhibition of his gentlemanly
qualities. He had taken exceeding
pains with his toilet, wearing his extra
double-reefed trousers, his wash-bowl
hat. the watch-fob of his father, and
other appurtenances pertaining to what
might be called the best style Of the
day. 1t was the dreamy, dusky hour
of twilight that he came TO the front
gate OF the residence of the father of
his "best girl" for twas she he was
calling on. With FACILITATING heart he
brushed the cigar ashes from his vest,
put his hand on the gate, and with his
most charming smile looked up the
gravel path. There stood in defiant
attitude big bull dog. The close cut
of the young mans trousers precluded
his going boldly past that bull dog.
There was not enough "slack" in the
cloth to give free play to the animals
teeth. The young man was in pre-
dicament. Somehow he never knew
the old man kept dog before. and he
thought it very strange that the girl
had never cautioned him in regard to
the savage brute. However, he con-
Guided to try the power of kindness
and his "animal magnetism" on the
dog. So he carefully opened the gate
and advanced with his eye fixed steadi-
ly on the brute. "Bose, Bose, Bosey;
nice old fellow; Bose. Bose, Bosey;"
but the dog remained imperturbable,
not even tail wag of recognition did
he vouchsafe. Not exactly in love with
the situation, and still being of cour-
ageous mold, he advanced step fur
ther. Bose. Bosey, Bose; ali, you
rascal! Bose, Bosey. Bose! Nice old
dog! Bose, Bosey, Boseyr' But
"Bose" didn't vince or move. The
cold perspiration stood in great beads
on the young mans brow, but the dog
seemingly cared not. just as the
young man was about to postpone his
call to some other evening, the hired
man sauntered around the corner of
the house, picked up the big earthen
pug and set it on the piazza out of the
wet, remarking with a knowing wink:
.'lt's new idea of Miss Flo's. She
thought it might scare off some y the
fellers." And hearing sound as of
rippling feminine laughter behind the
blinds the young man walked rapidly
up the street.-Nev Haren Register.

modes of life and occupations. Ads.
cision in Michigan was quoted which de-
clared, with obvious propriety, that the
same skill in driving horse could not
be attributed to woman as to a man,
and that a person meeting woman on
the street when q collision was threat
ened should remember her possible de-
ficiencies. While this is all true, the
law nowhere has laid down the general
principle that less care is required of a
woman than of q man. Moreover, q
greater degree of caution is expected on
woman's part, timidity and inexperi-
ence producing care which is absent
from the conduct of men. The Court
held that it, therefore. is unphilosOphi-
cal and unreasonable to establish a rule
the part of a woman.
The immunities of women are not to
be gainsaid, and the Difference and lem
iency which are due them must not be
withheld. This decision Of the Michi-
gan court, however, excludes any ex-
cessive allowance for the errors of judg-
ment and conduct. based on the ele-
ment of sex, and shows that while
women are less likely than men to ex-
pose themselves to danger the fact of
their being women is not to excuse neg
ligence when the risk is assumed. If
this decision is to stand for good law,
as it probably will, the equality of the
sexes is established in an important
particular. Women must be as careful
as men when they are in physical dam
ger. They may be on different footing
when standing at the ballot-box, but
when crossing track before an oncom-
ing train, that equality. as shown by this
decision, is indisputable. -Boston DID,

Understanding Mems Natures.

About mid-afternoon yesterday citi.
zen who pulls down the scales at 196
pounds descended the first flight OF
stairs beyond the post-office in just the
same manner that bag of oats would
have chosen. and when he brought up
at the foot he was in no frame of mind
to chip in anything for the heather in
Africa. The first citizen who arrived
on the spot knew what his duty required
of him on such an occasion, and he smil-
ingly remarked:
Il don't believe you can improve on
the old wayn'
The second citizen passing was in a
hurry; but he knew that he must halt
and inquire:
Like that any better than coming
down the way the rest of us do?''
The third citizen had business at the
post-office, but he turned aside, cleared
his throat, and remarked:
Evidently fell down stairs? Curl.
Gus how it sets the blood to circulating.
Some of you had better see if his nose is
good-bye?''
There was fourth spectator, and he
slowly entered the doorway, bent over
the victim, and remarked:
I'D have given dollar to see him
come down! He's one of the sort who
bump every stairn'
The fifth man was about to add his
mite when the victim rose up. His
elbows were skinned, his nose barked,
his coat torn and his back sand-papered
the whole length. but he was man
who had travelled. He knew that ev-
erybody in the crowd was hoping to see
him Jump up and down and shake his
fists, and paw the air, and to hear him
declare that he would lick all the men
who could be packed in ten-acre lot.
and therefore he brought sweet smile
to his face, lifted his hat like perfect
gentleman, and limped up stairs with
the bland remark:
''Stubbed my toe asI came in the door,
you know. and came near falling in q
heap" Free Press.

Sex and Contributory Negligence.

The Supreme Court of Michigan has
granted new trial in an action for
damages against the Michigan Central
Railroad Company, which, in the
ground taken by the plaintiff, presented
. novel question. A young girl was
killed by train of cars of the defend
ant company, and the plaintiff contend
ed that contributory negligence could
not be alleged by the company to inval-
idate the calm for damages, since the
same degree of care was not required
from a child as from an adult, and fur
thermorc. that the law did not expect
or demand as much prudence in wo-
man as in a man. The jury gave a
verdict to the plaintiff, allowing for the
youth and likewise for the sex of the
victim. The Court held that the in
structions of the Court below were cor
rect, so far as concerns the directions
respecting the age of the deceased, but
that it was an error to charge the jury
that the sex of the plaintiff affected the
rule as to reasonable care and pru-
dence. The same care is expected on
the part of woman as on that of a
man.
The Court dwelt upon the fact that
the difference in sex has much to do
with the application of legal principles
in MANY cases. Police regulations make
distinctions. Words and conduct which
In the presence of men would be con-
demned in bad taste. may be punished
