Partisanship, North and South.

The people of the North, the large
proportion of whom have some other
pursuit besides politics and ofiice-seek-
ing, do not realize the superheated con-
dition of mems feelings in the South
touching all political events. Bitter
partisans are often found in the North
in both the great political parties, but
they seldom allow their feelings to car
ry them beyond the bounds of reason
and common sense, much less to permit
their blind devotion to party to override
their love of justice.
Some recent examples of this differ
ence in sentiment may be given in the
way of illustration. Not long ago a
number of men in Philadelphia, belong
ing to the Republican party, were de-
tected in election frauds They were
tried, convicted of the ofense, sem
fenced to the Penitentiary for term of
years, where they are now meditating
upon the wisdom of that good Repub-
loan motto, of :" an honest election and

'tAny decent wolf would have been
afraid of camp fire, to say nothing of

She seized the oar and put herself in
a war-like attitude.
Just then one of the creatures outside
brushed against the tent, while another
ran shifting about and even ventured

Young woman, this is no time for

knows what will become of us. y
At this instant il flashed before my.
mind that there was something familiar
in the sound of the bowling outside. I
took anotherlook through the little loop
hole, then whistled softly. Dropping
the hunting knife I had been brandish-s
ing and running to the entrance began
untying the canvas flaps. "Aunt," !"
said I, Is listen! Do you hear? Those are

way in which they seized it that they
had been off on a long trail. It often

cases they always make their way to the

English nurse pale but calm, with the
happy Rob between them. We left the
tent flaps open and the CHEEKY frelight
shone inside the camp; the largest dog
stretched himself before the entrance as
if to say: "Tm going to keep watch

their places by the children's beds.

fair count" Everybody said that it
served them right. In Albany, N. Y,
they have recently had similar ex-
perience, with a similar result, three
repeaters having been sent to prison al
ready, and eight dishonest election in
spectors have been indicted by the
Grand Jury, with fine prospect of
serving term in Sing Sing in striped
clothing. Nobody sympathizes with
these rascals, and no one rises up to de-
fend them or TO ask that the force of
their sentence may be mitigated.
But in the South party feeling runs
mpGh higher. and very different results
are produced in consequence. The re-
cent trials in the Federal Court of
Charleston, S. c., of persons charged
with having violated the Election laws,
have been pretty much in the nature of
judicial farce. There was the most
ample proof of the guilt of the persons
arraigned. and the prosecution on the
part of the Government made its case
as clear as daylight, but not a single
conviction followed, for the reason that
there were some good Democrats on
each of the juries who had solemnly
promised that no verdict of guilty
should be rendered for such offenses.
And now come the South Carolina
Bourbon bulldozing newspapers and
publicly commend the action of these
jurors, and print their names in ''roll
or honor" They are praised for having
resisted ''the Establishments and men
aces of the prosecution" and it is de-
clared that ''they deserve we'll of every
honest man in the State" There was
no doubt, whatever, of the guilt of the
accused--that was confessed by every
one conversant with the facts; but jurors
were praised in the newspapers for hav-
ing violated their solemn oaths in order
to screen and save from a merited and
just punishment those who were known
to be guilty of violating the laws and
trampling upon the sacred rights Of
others.
Religious fanaticism and zeal 60 too
far when they justify the persecution of
others in order to propagate a dogma,
and political partisanship becomes a
deadly enemy to the public welfare
when it leads to such results as have re-
Gently been seen in the abortive trials
in South Carolina. And the time is not
far of when the prudent and conserva-
tive men in that State and the entire
South will see that they cannot afford
to justify such violations of the Election
laws, and that they have returned to
plague the inventors much sooner than
they expected The purity of the bal
lot-box is essential to the perpetuitv of
our republican system of Government,
and the South has as much at stake in
the supremacy of law and good order as
