ALEXANDER FAR1BAULT was one of the
first pioneers of this state. He at enc
time owned the larger part of the city
which bears his name. He died in almost
extreme poverty the other day, and the
city Of Faribault gave him big funeral
The Mayor issued a proclamation, the
bells were telled, large crowds attended
the last sad rites, and considerable money
was spent in preparing for the funeral
The editor of the Pennington Press mora
Lies over the event in way which we
can heartily endorse, and we make room
for the following extracts:
4 But how did it fare with him
while living? Is it not true that he died
in almost extreme poverty? And was it
not also true that all around was thrlv-
ing community that had all the luxuries
Of wealth? Did the Mayor ever proclaim
that Faribault, as the father of the town.
was ever worthy of gratitude that
should reach both the hearts and the
pockets of its people7 Or was the good
old man left to plod on and pine in ne
cognition or h0nors till his heart had
ceased to beat?
This post.o5itue glorification IS alto
gether too cheap and selfish. If Fari-
bault deserved all the honors paid him
when dead, he should have received more
solid comfort and honor while living. It
is the hungry man who wants bread, and
the naked who want clothing-while
they are yet among us. The eyes of the
dead never weep, nor the lips ever yearn
for nourishment. Kind Nature gives
them rest at last; and all the powow over
their mortal remains can not atone for
the neglect and disdain Of their fellow
men while living. ..s-
A little of the glory and pleasant eulogy
new bestowed might have warmed the
heart and cheered on the soul of the poor
old man. If he deserved it now, surely
he needed it all the more while he could
fool - -

WHTTEWAsH THAT WILL LAST.

Many have asked me about white

and oblige. for it will save me many
letters of reply and save thousands
from the necessity of whitewashing
every year:
"A whitewash that will last
several years costs but little more
than one that will wash and rub Off
in as many months rs they usually
do. Take of fresh-burned lime a
peck and slack it with hot water,
three pounds of rice flour dissolved
in warm water, and a pound of glue
dissolved in warm water, and one
pound of Spanish white. Stir all
well together and let it stand three
or four days before using. Stir it
well every day. When used heat
in a kettle and put it on hot. A
pound of yellow ochre will give it
pleasant cream color.

s4a. 600 ON A PAIR OF DEUoEs.
Cincinnati Commercial.

1t was pleasant fall night IN
Savannah, Ga, when a party OF hve
gentlemen met by arrangement In
one of the private parlors OF the
Screven House TO have 4 little
"draw," which, by the aforesaid
agreement. was to be no child :
play. but a game for all that was in
it. Three of the gentlemen were
large cotton merchants one was an
extensive manufacturer of fertilizers
and the third was a genial hotel
proprietor, who was blessed with a
superabundance of wealth. The
whole five were "sOlid men" whose
bank checks were good for any
amount. and often during the game
these same checks were piled up
when all ready money and the
worries were stabed on a hand.
One of the players, generally a
hard man to beat on account OF his
perfect GOODNESS and unbOunded
pluck. seemed to be unusually un-
lucky on this occasion, and before
the game had become fairly 'hot
he was loser something over SlO,-
600. Biding bis time, the major
waited until several stiff "antes had
been made, and when it came his
turn to put up he laughingly re
marked, Gentlemen, this game Is
going little slow. I'll make II
81 900 to play" Three of the 9th
ers saw 1t. and when his turn came
the Major raised the blind $1,000.
This was also ''seen" by the others,
and on the draw for cards, he drew
one card for n flush and made pair
of deuces tn second man drew
three cards; the third one card,
and the fourth, two cards. Each OF
the others bet chip and the
Major bet $4,000. The second and
third men dropped, but the fourth,
remarking. Major, YOU can't bluff
TO-. raised him $4,000. Without
moving a muscle of his face, the
Major drew out his book, and writ
ing a check for $4,000, threw it on
the pile, saying, "If you think m
bluffIng. come and see that This
was too much for the fertilizer gen,
tleman, and he laid down three
kings, while the Major scoOped in

BATE IN RUTHERFORD.
AN EARNEST PLEA FOR THE PREsER-
WALTON OF DEMOCRACY.

from The AutEI4n
SMYRNA, Tenn, July 1-Never
In my life have / seen the Democ
racy so united on any one man, or
any one thing, as we arc on Gen.
Bate and a determination to over
throw Hawkins and his 60-3-6. We
are sorry to see a few good men
(some whom we have ever reverence
ed for their fidelity to the old land
marks) who can not for the good of
the party rally to the call of De-
mocracy and support Gen. Bate, a
man who was never known to finch
or draw back in peace or in war.
Cannot you newspaper men, instead
of saying hard things of those who
disagree with you, do something to
heal the breach? Can you not pour
In tn balm of Gilead of kindness
and prevail on the party to unite =?
The platform is not what we
would prefer, but we cannot ex-
pect to have everything as we de-
sire in this life. Surely the low-tax
element has made concessions, are
we not willing to meet them, and
give them the right hand of fellow
ship and shake one hearty united
shake for union in Democracy-that
old party that Jefferson, and our
own Jackson and Polk labored for
so long? How can we, after saying
80 many hard things Of those who
bolted two years ago, do the same
thing and on the other hand, how
can those who bolted then exert
their brain to say so many bitter
words of those who have followed
in their footsteps? The good book
saws we should bear each others
burdens, to bear, forbear, and for
give. Is this spirit prevailing with
us. or are we determined on the
destruction of the Democratic party
in which many of us have been
rocked and Graded from our in
fancy? / am glad to see so many Of
the old Wing party fighting SC
nobly against radical rule. Cannot
we bury the tomahawk and vote
for the nominee fGen. w. b. Bate
Of the party. Not because he
| is a Democrat, alone, but because
nc was nominated by one of th'
largest bodies of Representative
men that was ever assembled IL
Tennessee. How can men, wht
were sent TO the convention tol
peace and harmt ny, bolt because
| the Dlatform was not as they de
sired? Never has any one objected
to the nominee, for there is no stain
on his character, private or public
How many married men, if the tirs
time their sweet wives did or SAT-
something that they did not approx
of. would bolt, would now be mop
, ing in blessed singleness?
Let us be consistent Democrats
and come up with n bold determine
ton to rid our mother State o
Radicalism. Let us bury it so dee
in November, 1882, that our chi
, dren's children will not know tina
: such thing ever existed in Tenn
essee, except rs the historian sha
number it among the past. Let u
determine that the party that ha
! disregarded principle and violate
pledges, shall never again fill otficis
positions in Tennessee.

Bate. If the people of the Stat
, will follow suit with Rutherford
Bate will come up with such
majority for Democracy as neve
