ABRAHAM LINCOLN QUOTED.

During the debate on the Chinese
bill, when the republican senator
were hard pressed upon the negro
question, they ell fell back upon the
following quotation from Abraham
Lincoln
II will say, then, that / am not
nor ever have been in favor Of
bringing about in any way the social
and political equality of the white
and black races that | am not or
ever have been in favor of making
voters or jurors of negroes, nor oil
qualifying them to hold office, or in
termarry with the white people ;
and | will say, in addition to THE,
tbst there is a physical difference
between the white and black races
which | believe will ever forbid the
two races living together on terms
of social and political equality. And
iuasmuch as they cannot so live,
while they 90 live together there
must be the position of superior and
inferior, and |, as much as any other
man, am in favor of having the su'
perior position assigned to the white
race.

HIGH TAX.

The manufacture of matches in
this county is principally in the
hands Of a single company which
operateSa number of factories -
There are several comparatively
small concerns which supply local
trade, but the Diamond Match Cons
pany, since the establishment of the
present heavy internal revenue tax,
has absorbed most of the smaller
factories of the country and closed
them. A representative of the com
pany recently appeared before the
House Ways and Means Committee
at Washington and argued against
any reduction of the tax which on
cheap matches is greater than the
cost of material and labor required
for their production. Some surprise
has been expressed at this, but it is
generally admitted that the high tax
is the principal means by which
they are enabled to bold a practical
monopoly and freeze out small man
ufacturers.

SALARIES OF NEW YORK CLER-
GYMEN.

Speaking of salaries. the Broad
way Tabernacle has advanced the
pastor (Taylor) to SIC, 900, which is
the largest clerical salary in New
York. This is judicious method
Of keeping him from accepting any
other call. Trinity has been giving
it's rector dig $l2, 900 and a house
worth 50, 900 year. He will pro-
badly be advanced to $4,000.
John Hall has $4,000, but will be
soon advanced in proportionate de
gree Paxton, formerly of Wash>
ington, has been called by one Of our
opulent Presbyterian churches at
$4,000 year. One Baptist
preacher (McAr,hur) is said to be
equally we'll paid, while two of this
denomination (Bridgeman and Ar
mitsge) have each $4,000. Others
receive from $1,000 down to one
half that sum.

A SAD PICTURE.

indianapolis Santinel.
A sad picture was presented one
morning last week on one of the
roads leading into this city. A wagon
on its waS % the insane asylum con-
tanned vOman of unsound mind.
Ia her arms, pressed to her bosom,
was the lifeless body of an infant.
Three other little ones, whose destiny
wac the poor house, were crouched
in the wagon, shivering and cold.
By the woman's side sat her husband,
with his head bowed in sorrow. A
pair of handcuffs we're looked around
bis wrists. The family of elk was to
be rudely separated, perhaps forever.
Their destinations were the asylum,
the poor house the jail and the grave.
The mother, it is understood, would
not consent to her removal unless
she could ta.ke her dead child along.
The fathers crime was not found

GOING BACK ON THE NEGRO.

| have had some conversation with
Senator Jones, Of Nevada, and infer
from his undisguised language that
he not only will adhere to what he
spoke in the Senate, but, if anything,
make it stronger. He openly pro
claims that the whole negro business
is a melancholy blunder; that it ap
proaches crime; and he regrets that
some of the New England gentry did
not debate the question with him
81 believe" he said, "that wha,
Gen. Wigfall declared is true. The
Yankees sold their slaves to the
South for the love of money and stole
them back again for the love Of
God" He also wants its understood
that be is progressive man; and
that, having discovered the evil OF
negro suffrage, there is nothing to
do but honestly confess the folly of
the act and seek such remedy as the
law allows. No man in Washington
is more outspoken on this snbject
than the Republican Senator from
Nevada and bosom friend of Presi>
dent Arthur Washington Cores

Steer clear of politics, my son.
Don't banker after Office It's the
worst thing you can do, except it be
to drink to excess or gamble inordi'
nately. Too frequently politics lead
to both. Did you ever stop to con-
slider the ills attendant upon politi
cal careerY Do you know how
many men have been ruined by thirst
for political power Or how many
have been sent to prison thereby
Or how many have committed sui
eide on account Of itg You will find
that nearly as many have been
wrecked morally or mentally by dab
bling in politics as there have beer
by whisky.

ORGANIZING.

The Independents held another
caucus at the Markham House last
Monday. DR.. II. V. Miller was
chairman of the meeting and Smith
Clayton was secretary. The follow
ing gentlemen we're present: DR..
w. Fl. FELTON,, Jos. F. Pou, Jas. S.
Hook, Albert Cox, M. K. Thornton,
Peter Lawshe, Thos. NJ. Berien, and
w II. Hulsey. These Office seekers
propose to hold a convention in At
laDta on the first day of June and
have issued an address to that effect.
So after all these Independent coali
tionists fud it necessary to meet and
caucus and organize to carry out
their political aspirations. The word
"organize" can now be applied to
the Independents with as much mean
ing as it is applied to regular demo
Gratis.
Markham House Coalition No. l.,
fell stiIlborn, and Markham House
Coalition No. 2, will prove just as
abortive in trying to beguile demo,
Gratis into a treacberous alliance
with Radicalsm. President Arthur,
Farrow and Longstreet backs the
movement and that is enough to sat~
isfy democrats that the best inter-
ests of Georgia are not sought to be
subserved.

1T CURED.

Americas Recorder A specific 70
the cbills, as used by negro woman
near this place upon child of hers
is ahead of any specific known to the
medical fraternity. The child was
rubbed all over with pounded cay
enne pepper and turpeatine poured
upon it until it blistered and burnt,
then a decoction of the pulp of a
gourd was given the child as en-
emetic. The remedy was an awful
one, but it cured the child. Any.
thing else but niger would have
gone to the graveyard under such an
heroic treatment This is fact and
can be established by many Witness
es This is medical phase in the
life of the negro unknown to the
whites.

Chinese are not citizens, and new

duct them from the population Of
California entitled to representation,
we have only 774,694 left, and this
is hardly a sufficient number to en-
title the State to five Representa-
