Senator Malone has not only betrayed
Democracy, but he has now added in
suit to injury, By voting In the United
States Senate to exclude all Confederate
soldiers from holding commissions in
the Army or Navy. Instead of being
Liberal, as he claims, he has developed
into one of the most rampant, Southern
hating Radicals. He has stultified him
self, and offered gratuitous insult to
every man who wore the gray. His
bitter Radical partizanship is only
equaled by his hatred of and malice
towards everything that he has
heretofore expressed veneration for.

A DOUBTFUL ARGUMENT Mahone's
people are undertaking doubtful task
when they appeal to the negro for sup
port on the ground that they abolished
the whipping law. This is in fact
saying to the negro: You are thief, q
rogue, but we want your vote and are
willing that you should go unwhipped
in order to get it. We Mahoneites make
this "official announcement" that we
believe all negroes to be thieves and
rogues, and that their votes can be pro-
cured If we only abolish this "relic OF
barbarism."

A SagaciOus Elephant.

The French papers dedicate a para
graph to the singular proof of sagacity
just shown by an elephant lodged at the
Folies Bergeres, in Paris. A couple of
elephants recently hired by the proprie-
tors of the theatre in the Rue Richer had
been chained to post on the stage, which
is under repair, until their respective
lodgings were ready for them The other
day workman employed on the premi-
ses, whilst passing near the animals di-
verted himself by giving one of them a
kick. This producing no apparent ef-
feet on the huge brute, he dealt it another
and harder one shortly afterwards,
with no more effect, however, than the
first. But the animal only wanted a
favorable moment for wreaking its ven-
geance., Half an hour later that moment
came. The workman. with hod ON his
back, was going up ladder placed against
the wall near the elephant, when the
latter. getting as close as its chain permit
ted, suddenly streached out its trunk,
seized hold of the first rung OF the ladder,
and drew itquickly towards him, bringing
ladder and workman 20 the ground.
The facetious mason s injuries were suffic-
iently serious to necessitate his remova
to a hospital. He will have paid rather
dearly for what, no doubt. he considered
harmless joke. which however, the ele-
phant resented evidently as wanton in
suit to dignity.

Amole-A Plant that Yields Soap.

These cacti grow on the American Con-
tinent from Mount Shasta on the north
to a similar latitude in South America,
and from the Pacific Coast to east of the
Rio Grande, through New Mexico, and
Western Texas.
The flowers stalks are destitute of
leaves, but are plentifully supplied with
branches about eighteen inches long,
from which flowers of white and yellow
colors are suspended in the flowering g
season. The bulbous root is from one to
six inches in diameter and from six to
eighteen inches long.
A saponaceous juice is expressed from
the root, and the fiber of the leaves is
heckled for the manufacture of mattres.
ses, cushions and chair-seats. The vege.
table soap extracted from the root has
been used by the Indians, Mexicans and
Others for many years as hair-wash, ,and
exceeds in purity our manufacture from
animal substances.
The preservative qualities of the soap
are well known, and its use gives the
hair fine natural glow, preventing decay
of the hair and entirely eradicatIng dand-
ruff or other impurities on the scalp.
Cattle eat the leaves in the spring as a
purgative. And cut into bits and thrown
on water where fish abound the effect is
stupefaction of the fish, when they can
be easily taken.
The price among the Indians and Mexi.

For cleaning fannels the amole is found

the manufacture and preparation of amole
may become one of the industrial pursuits
of the age.

A La-De-Dah Young Man.

A New York letter says: "A young
exquisite, the son of celebrated
rope maker, is exciting much good
natured laughter by his exceeding dainti-
ness and lavish display. He has lately
attained his majority, and is anxious,
evidently, to dispense the large income
he finds at his command. He has forty
coats, an umbrella for each shade of
dress, and canes and scarf-pins innum-
cradle. He said he had to get brough-
am, because he had to go to his law
yers so often, and he has besides two
wheeler and Russian sleigh with
horses to match. He has flowers sent
to his rooms twice day, and when he
walks with a young lady he always
buys for her most expensive bouquet,
there being no other sort at this time of
the year. He spent $4,000 in fitting up
two rooms in his mothers house. He
wears three marvellous rings upon his
hand, a cat's-eye set in hammered gold,
red cat's-eye with two diamonds, and
q sapphire set with two diamonds; his
shirtbuttons are two pearls set in dia-
monds, and also a cat's-eye set in the
same precious stones. He has five dozen
pairs of silk hose with his monogram
upon them, and he has cane in which
is concealed a cologne fountain. To 8
young lady who admired one of his rings
the other day he kindly said he would
send one round to her house the next
day just like it. He was told the other
day by a reigning belle, whose good
grace he wished to cultivate, that to
succeed he must go down town and go
to work" .,s--s.g.1

Pussy in Church,

While the occupants of the pews in q
fashionable Brooklyn church were on a
Sunday morning awaiting the opening
of service, large gray cat mounted the
pulpit platform and crouched under the
stately carved chair. Having secured
this position, it began the utterance of
grievous walls. While there seemed to
some persons to be an appropriateness
in thus bringing a load of grief into the
sanctuary, others were disposed to think
that the cat could better have selected
some other place as refuge. The dea-
cons and elders were of the latter opin-
ion.
The pastor had not vet taken his
place, and the cat had the platform all
to itself. A deacon and two elders ad-
vanced in order to take measures to re-
move the creature. The deacon grasp
ed the cat, which in turn began to claw
him and spit defiance at him. The ell
ders stood one at each end of the plat
form, in case the cat should dodge away
from the deacon. For a moment it
looked as if both of them might have to
run to the deacon's help. The young
persons in the church regarded the sit
uation with intense interest. Had it
been anywhere else than in a church
they would have cheered the deacon
when, clasping the terrified brute in his
arms, he passed it to one of the elders,
who gravely carried it out the side door,
When the good pastor proceeded with
the service it was in an almost audible
smile. 1t was some minutes before that
congregation settled into fitting sober
decorum.

What MahOneism Requires.

The Readjuster Senator (sO-called) of
Virginia has boasted of his power to
break up the Bourbons of the South;
States Senate unpledged to any party;
boasted that he owed allegiance to no
party; boasted that he would not be bound
by the caucus of any party. Senator Hill
unearthed Malone, and bargains have
been put on record of the fact that Ma
hone left Washington and stayed at Rich
mond while the Readjuster caucus drove
the original Readjuster (Massey) out of
Office and out of the fold. Let those
favoring heretofore the Liberal (so-called)
Malone Readjuster and his teaching read
mark, learn and inwardly digest what
the editor of the Charlottesville, Va,
Jeffersonidn thinks of Mahoneism
Mahoneism requires pure. wise, learned
and laborous judges to be turned out of
office because they do not vote for Ma
hone men for office.
Mahoneism requi.es experienced, skilled
and faithful officers and physicians in our
lunatic asylum to be turned out because
thev do not vote in politics to suit Malone,
and set of untried men put in their
places.
Mahoneism requires that faithful exper-
fenced and capable master commissioners
in chancery shall be removed because they
are not Malone politicians, and that their
places shall be filled by the men who will
be his shoulder strikers at the polls.
Mahoaeism is not willing for the people
who are alone interested in property to
be sold under DEGREES of court to have
anything whatever to do in selecting a
suitable person to sell their own real es-
tate, but requires it to be done in every
case by man who will do Mahone's
will in politics, whatever that may be,
and it is not even willing to trust the
judges Of its own choice to select these
commissioners of sales for fear some of
them may not be sufficiently subservient
to Mahone's will, but requires that they
shall be selected by Mahone's governor.
Mahoneism is not willing that any one
shall even be notary public who will
not be political tool of Malone, and
therefore it seeks to remove every notary
public in the State that their places may
be filled by Mahone's political bummers.
In short, its cardinal maxim for govern
ment rule is, that every person in any
office or position within the gift of the
Government shall be "collar man" of
Malone. and that their implicit obedience
to Malone is an indispensable qualifica.
tion for any Office or position under the
Government,

human Trait inaHOus.

A writer suggests in the New York
TibtEne that horses have q great deal
Of "human inwardness." He supports
his assertion BY telling about mare he
owned:
"This mare could trot her mile in
three minutes, on q good road, when so
inclined. but when otherwise minded
you could not make her so uncomforta-
bic that she would start before she got
ready; then she would 90 at the top of
her speed, and any attempt to interfere
by drawing on the rains would be an
swercd by another stand-still, which
said as plainly as language could say,
If l can't go in my own way, refuse
to GO
81 have seen this very trait in humans
horses are not the only animals that
balk; men possess a great deal Of this
ugly inwardness. Horses will balk
when they cannot crafty their ambition
to be ahead.
IL have had horses that would balk
whenever they were passed on the road
by another team, and plainly said by
their actions, If l cannot go first, l will
not go at all
IL have met with many humans who
manifested similar disposition. This
is ambition and ugliness combined.
81 have had ahOrse balk in the plough
because it was ambitious to keep its
nose ahead of its mates nose; by this
means would do more than half the
work, and whenit Etired would stop, and
when started find it impossible to head
its mate and then would refuse to move.
The way to remedy this is to lengthen
out the traces so that the ambitious ami
NAL can head its mate and yet not do
more than its share of the pulling"
In few animals is the instinct Of pride
so strongly developed as in the horse. 1t
has been educated by men until in some
horses it almost resembles the ambition
of human character. Indeed, if men
generally had the ambition that is found
in some breeds of horses, it would result
in moral improvement.
