THE PEOPLE %

How many crimea have been
committed 10 the name Of "the PEG
pie |" Whenever an old mors. back
politician wants additional honors,
or disappointed Office seeker hun
gers for political position, they cry
out the sssreoptyPed phrase, "the
people! !" when they know as lit
tie about the wants and sentiments
Of the Woodworking, Intelligent
masses, as q heona dog does Of
theology, or pussy cat does Of as.
tronomy. These two classes Of pol
iticians mistake tho inner-prOmpt
ings Of their own selfish ambition for
the s.entorian voice of the people,
and respond with slarc Gritty, ''Here,
am |" when 10 truth "the people
never bad them in view as the pop
ular preference, nor neither do they
endorse their principles. Yet these
ambitious fellows use this cry With
self>delega:ed authority to deceive
and bulldoze the people into submis
sion. They go forward aud do and
say things 10 the name Of the people
that is hollow mockery and base
libel. They fiippsntly make the
people the scape-eOst of their own
political sins and misdeeds. "The
people" are thus used to dishonor
and made an excuse for unhallOwed
ambition. The term is high, sound
ing and synonym Of power, but it is
badly abused and made to do some
very dirty work. 1t is worthy Of
better treatment, bat it serves as
substerfuge for so much duplicity
and demsgogueism, that it is becom'
ing disgussiugly nauseating. Please
let up on it, and let cluster around it
that prestige and respect that it is
justly entitled to.

A cow KILLED By A RAM.

Columbus Enquirer says: One
of the most singular incidents that
we have recorded 10 long time &C.
CURED at Patsalaga creek, in Tai
bot county, and not very far from
Howard Station. Mr.. VIM. Heath
was driving COW and young calf
along the road and when they came
to the creek she stopped in order to
drink. On the opposite side of the
creek and a few feet off stood q
large ram. As the COW was drink
ing she would frequently lift up her
head as if she was uneasy about the
calf. The ram took this as banter
for fight, and walking up near the
COW reared up and gave her a batt
centrally in the head and killed tho
COW almost instantly. Mr.. Heath
ran up, thinking that the COW would
soon recover, as he thought she was
only stunned, but 10 this he was mis-
tax en-, as it was a death stroke.

of the 30th inst. Alexander Bachuz,
the victim, was a young man of good
appearance, and is reported by men
from Mahoney's camp as temperate
and industrious. Mr.. Slater and Mr..
A. M. GiIdeau, who is q Deputy
Sheriff Of Tom Green county,
brought in the murderer, Herman
Welder. The arrest was made by

formed a pI n to get him to confess.
He was taken to the saloon of Mr..
Slater, when a man came in and
said body of armed men was near
by and intended to lynch Weller
GiIdea and Slater then took him out
and told him that the best thing he
could do would be to divide the
money with them and they would
show him the crossing of the Rio
Grsnde, otherwise he would be hang
ed by the mob. He agreed to the
proposition, and confessed the muir
der to them. lie then took them to
the place where be had the money

provable that the company now runs

cost of the establishment, and the

THE MURDER OF LORD CAvEN
DISH.

The brutal assassination of Lord
Frederick Caveadish and Under
Secretary Burke, 10 broad daylight,
in Dublin Park on Saturday even-
ing will necessarily seriously preiu-
nice the cause of reform 10 the gov
erpment of Ireland, even if it docs
not lead to entire undoing Of all that
has recently been done bYMr.
Gladstone in that direction. When
bat few days age Is was announced
that the administration of that coun'
try was to be changed. Parnel!, Dill
on and other suspects had been re-.
leased, the coercion act was TO be
abandoned and more liberal policy
was generally to be adopted, it was
universally believed that the era of
mui der and assassination in that IN
happy island bad passed away. and
that new era OF freedom and hap
piness, which would bring about a
more friendly feeling between the
Bri.ish Government and the Irish
people, bad dawned. Ii seems how
ever, from the atrocious murder of
Lord Cavendish and Mr.. Burke that
all such hopes were delusive.
II was announced only on Thurs
day last that Lord Frederick Caven
dish had been appointed Chief Sec
rotary for Ireland, and the appoint
ment was regarded as an endeavor
to copciliale the Wing element Of
the British Cabinet, He being q
Wing, his appointment was unpoP'
uIar in Ireland. 1t excited much
disappointment among the Home
Rule members of Parliament. The
Irish and Scotch provincial papers
were unanimous 10 denouncing it,
declaring that it was 40 indication
that the government was not in errn>
est 10 its promise for reform, while
the disapproba.ion of the Liberals
was openly and every where express
ed. Parnell also was emphatic in
his denunciations, and it was doubt
less the excitement and disapp oint-
ment so universally excited By the
appointment, which led to the as
sassination.

COMMON SENSE.

Common sense is symmetry of
mind, Of character aud of purpose 10
the individual combined. 1t repre>
senss man 10 completeness, harmony,
and equipoise. 1t clothes him with
dignity, invests him with power, and
stamps him with superiority. 1t is
genius, for that is otter errstic ; nor
cunning in it's sinuous course nor
! tact, with it's decline into trickery.
Common sense is the embodiment Of
true manhood. 1t confers a patent
of 10y atty, though birth be plebian,
and exalts men from their lowest
spheres to the highest stations.
Not by sudden freaks of fortune or q
train of adventitious circumstances
are they thus dignified but step by
step, through obstacle and hindrsnce
they overcome by force of character
and the proper force Of will power.
Common sense is q tremendous force
in this world. Its power is felt and
acknowledged through all the rami-
icatiOn Of government, society, bus
mess, finance and commerce. 10
fact, it is the history as we'll as the
true philosophy of the ages 1t is
the salt that has saved humanity
from barbarism, aud the moving
power that has propelled the race
onward ia its march of progress and
civilization.

Senator Hills friends think that
he will not be able to live the year
out. It seems that the senator has
had very little hope of favorable re-

fact that be was attacked by dis

has carried off a brother, a sister
and two aunts. The senator's broth :
er, DR.. Hill, died of cancer in the
stomach, and bis sister was attacked
very much as he had been, by a

fatally.

YOUNG WHALES.

Two young whales, measuring
fourteen feet, according to the Sa
vannah Recorder, came up in higt
tide on the island of Tybee, in some
sluice way. The tide receded, leav
ing them there. One of them, in
it's efforts to get back Stewards,
wounded itselfso that it died. The
other one which was alive, though
apparently in great distress, wac
comfortably provided for. They
proceeded to dig sluice of sufficient
depth to admit a necessary supply
of water to keep it alive, and will
provide sustensnce in the shape of
fish until it can be effectually secur>
ed and transferred to q receptacle or
canal that will be dug next to the
Ocean House. The mother of these
piscatorial cubs is 10 the greatest
agony imaginable, as she is 10 sight
off the beach in deep water, below
Jog and throwing up the saline fluid
Practically, in despair for the loss of
her young. No doubt the capture
of the old lady will be accomplished
as soon knowledge of her presence
in shore is obtained by the whaling
schooaers now off the coast, provided
she does not make a similar attempt
at inland navigation, while the
spring tide prevails.
