The Springfield Journal, in an item
reproduced elsewhere, offers suggestion to
the Republicans of this senatorial district,
which is deserving of their consideration,
1t suggests that the Hon. w. T. Scott be
sent to the Legislature from this district.
Mr. Scott has certainly shown that he is an
able politician, judged by the Republican
standard of to-day; he represents three
thousand voters of his own district who
hold the balance of power, and one thou
sand Of them are his absolute political
slaves. That Mr., Scott yields power
which it is injudicious to ignore has been
| amply proven by the political events of the
last week or two. He is the John Kelly
of Alexander county Republcansm, and he
will have "ham OF bust"-the Republican
party
The Springfield Journal (Rcpublcan)
gives the following compliment to the
wiley Vim. T. Scott, of this city, who was
delegate to the state convention on the
Damron side: prominent among the col
ored delegates present in the convention,
yesterday, was Mr. william Scott, Of Alex
ander county. Mr. Scott is the editor of
the Cairo Gazette, a paper devoted Wig
orously to the interests of bis race partcu-
larry, and to the interests Of his city and
county generally. AS delegate he created
favorable impression, and to his able
presentation Of the claims of his race be-
fore the committee % the appointment of
a member upon tho central committee are
the colored people indebted for arcpresenta
ton which they obtained in the person OF
DR., McGcc, OF Massac, as noted elsewhere.
1t is generally remarked that Scott would |
make good member of the house, and, |
should the people of his district decide to
send cJlored man, which we learn is con |
siderably talked Of, he would no doubt
make an acceptable member, and one who |
would do no discredit to the constituency |
who may choose such d representatives,
A German satrist has produced the
following fable, of which the application is
apparent; "Tbere were once four flies and,
as it happened, they were hungry one morn
ing The first settled upon a sausage of
singularly appetzng appearance and made
hearty meal, but he speedily died Of in
testnal Inflammation, for the sausage was
adulterated with aniline The second fly |
breakiastod upon flour, and forthwith sue
cumbed to contraction of the stomach, ow
ing to the inordinate quantity of alum with |
which the -four had been aduterated, The |
third fly was shaking his thirst with the
contents Of the milk jug, when violent
cramps suddenly convuIsed his frame, and
he soon gave up the ghost, victim to
chalk aduterahon. Seeing this, the fourth
fly, mulering TO himself, The sooner it's
over the sooner to sleep alighted upon a
mojstened sheet of paper exhibiting the
counterfeit presentment Of a deaths head,
and the inscription, Fly.PoisOn,' Apply
ing the tip Of his proboscis to this device,
the fourth fly drank to his hearts content,
growing more vigorous and cheerful at
every mouthful, although eXpectant of his
end But he did not die. On the contrary,
he throve and waxed fat You see, even
the tly.poisou was aduteratcd.
