"THE SAME TO YOU"

Some years ago there lived in the
"Old North State" two men who
had been great friends, but who
had "fell out" and refused to speak
to each other. One day they met
by chance il Raleigh, the county
town. and Sheriff H., a mutual
friend. prevailed on them to make
friends" and shake hands. After
this all hands repaired to the near
est saloon, to drown all recollee-
tions of the unpleasant affair, and
just as the glasses were raised,
Sheriff H., who was man of stem
torian lungs, stormed into the ear
of Farmer L., one of the reconciled,
and who was as deaf as a post:
"Hold on, Mr.. Lilly-Mr. Penny
(the other reconciled) is going to
drink toast"
The glasses were held in position
to be tipped at the proper moment,
when MIR. Penny, thinking to have
some sport at the expense of his
deaf neighbor. said:
"Here's wishing you were in
Hades. you old scoundrel."
Old man Lilly was not to be out
done in politeness, and though he
had not heard single word that
was uttered. he replied at once:
"The same TO you, Mr.. Penny,
and all your family"
This created such u laugh among
the bystanders that explanations
had to be made 60 DID mar Lilly,
and instead of the breech being
closed between the two it was made
wider. But "the same to you, and
all your family" is still a we'll
known reply in that locality.

A SEVERE REPARTEE.

A rather severe repartee is re-
corded of Foote. the comedian,
who, while travelling in the west OF
England, dined one day at al inn.
When the eloth was removed the
landlord asked him how he liked
his fare:
81 have dined as well as any man
in England"
Except the Mayor" cried the
landlord.
Il do not except anybody what
ever" said Foote.
But you must"
81 WONT"
"You must."
At lens th the strife ended by the
landlord, who was petty magis-
;rate, taking Foote before the May
or, who observed that it was GUS
tomary in that town to always Eek
cept the Mayor" and accordingly
fined him q shilling for not con-
forming to the custom. Upon this
decision Foote paid the shilling,
at the same time observing that he
thought the landlord the greatest
fool in christendom-except the
Mayor"

CHAMPION HUNTING STORY.

Charles Dell and Harry Cotton,
members of the Olympic Club,
were out duck shooting. While
trying to cross one of the sloughs
at low tide, Harry got mired, sink

to assist him. through tear of get
ting mired also. The tide was rap
ly coming in; no time was to be
lost, for in twenty minutes it would
be over Harry's head. On the
bank was piece of gas pipe five
feet long. This Mr. Dell managed
to get to Harry, who, stuck in the
mud, put it to his mouth. and wher
the tide raised over his head, he
breathed through it for four hours,
while Charlie went for help to the
draw bridge, six miles away. He
returned with ropes, and when the
tide receded again, rescued his
friend, who was almost dead from
exhaustion.-Ne,rs Letter.

ROCK OF AGES CLEFT FOR
Me.

In the pleasant county of Devon,

with few cottages sprinkled over
it, unused and sang Augustus Top
lady. When lad Of sixteen, and
on a visit to Ireland, he strolled
into barn in which all illiterate
layman was preaching but preach
ing reconciliation to God through
the death of His son. The homely
sermon took effect, and from that
moment the gospel welded all the
power of this brilliant and active
mind. During his last illness,
Augustus Toplady seemed to lie in
the vestibule of glory. To friends
inquiry, he answered with spark
ling eyes: "Oh, my dear sir, I can
not tell the comforts feel in my
soul-they are past expression.
Tie consultations of God are SO
abundant that he leaves me moth
ing to pray for. My prayers are all
converted into praise. | enjoy a
heaven already within my soul!"
And within an hour of dying he
called his friends and asked if they
could give him up; and wheel they
replied in the affirmative, tears of
Joy ran down his cheeks as he add
ed: "Oh, what blessing that you
are made willing to give me over to
the hands of my dear Redeemer
and part with me; for no mortal
can live after having seen the glo-
ries which God has manifested to

THE DEMOCRATIC CORPSE.

The Democratic party is surely a
lively corpse, and has been gaining
upon the Republican arrangement as
facts and figures will show. Rspubli-
can journals are in the habit of ehrOn-
icling the death of the Democratic
party, or announcing that it is rapidly
going to pieces. The Philadelphia Tel
egraph, Republican, replies to the wild
statements of contemporary with a
few facts and figures of an instructive
ch; racter. 1t says:
These returns show that while the Re-
publican vote has steadily prOpOTtiOna-
hly decreased the Democratic vote has
steadily and certainly prOpOrtiOnably
increased. Surely as fate the Republic
cans have been losing ground and the
Democrats gaining il. Take first the
Otficial returns Of

will be seen that, although Greeley was
so largely tOlted by the Democrats, he
received upwards of one hundred
thousand more votes than Seymour did
in 1864, yet in 1880 the respective Re-
publican majOrities of 305, ,45S votes of
1864 and of 727,975 of 1872 were cut
down to the pitiahle number of 3,O33.
The election of 1876 can not well be
considered. 1t was muddled by fraud
upon both sides, but it is probable Til
den had both majority of The electoral
and the popular vote. Taking the four
last elections together, however, it will
be seen that the Democrats have been
getting nearer and nearer to the point
where they can seize the "spOils," and
there is no more stupid thing to be
done on the part of the Republican
journals than to attempt to create the
impression that the Democratic party is
in the last stages of dissolution, and
that it is only the Republican party that
is vital with principles and invulneTa-
bly, intrenched in popular favor.
Had the full Democratic vOte-the
same vote that Tilden got in 1S76-been
pOlled for Hancock in 1880, in Alabama,
Georgia, Mississippi, Louisiana, Vir-
ginia and some other Southern States,
HancOck's popular majority over Gar
field would have been not less than 15O,-
600. But after the October election in
Indiana, the Democrats of those States
grew discouraged and did not cast their
full vote. A party that has following
