l think it was Franklin who tried
to persuade his neighbors that the
application of land plaster would
increase their wheat crops, but TO no
use, He selected narrow field on
a hillside opposite the public road,
and there sowed it in the shape Of
the following words: "This land has
been plastercd;" and there all sum
mer in letters of living green, taller,
thicker, and heavier than the rest, it
told its own story to the passor by.
We do not believe that land plaster
is good for everything, but when
salt is proved to be rs good for our
small grain as plaster was for that
wheat, then we shall use it and reap
the benefits. Who'll try it and re-
port? AcRiCUIruRAIIsr.

power in Tennessee. 1t is the rightful
guardian of our interests and it has the
will and the power to control and it
t1ill control. That is as sure as sun
rise!il Democrats, you may pull back
in the harness and rear on your
launches and lay down on the pole, but
the breast-chain is stout and the breech-
ing will not break, and the procession
is going to move right along and you
are going with it whether you will or
not. The whole caravan can't afford to
stop just because one democrat balks.
Move up or you'll get your tail twisted.
You can't get out OF the column unless
you are SO small that you'll slip through
the crupper. II that's your size, no one
will miss you, and They'll have to sweep
the dust to find you when the show is
over. Don't lagl There is no sense in
it, absolutely nOne-and twice as little
use. You can't rosist the tide and if
you want to be in at the wake you'd
better keep your seat. Democrats are
moving. If you don't keep your traces
stretched you'll be dragged. Stepkup
lively there and work any where you're
hitehed in. All of us cannot work in |
the band-wagon and prance under
nodding plume. Some of us must help !
draw the animals. Sound the loud |
timbrel. There's going to be fight.

There can be no fault found with Capt.

sorrowful that he should be chosen for
the sacrifice and is to be made the knife

whithorne and Robeson.

The whitening denunciation heaped
upon Ex-Sectary of the Navy Robson
by Mr.. Whitthorne in the house last
Thursday was justly administered and
meekly taken. Robson is a gigantic
public plunderer and is convicted be-
fore the bar of public opinion OF perjury
and thieYery, Whitthorne is the en-
bodimsnt OF stern integrity and no ding
from such a source can penetrate his
armor. AS the World On. W says, if
Mr.. Whitthorne had safe silent under
RobssOn's remarks, Robson and his
followers would have proclaimed that
he had kept silent because he did not
dare to speak, and that his silence was
a confession of the truth of the charges
against the unnamed member whom
Robson hated.
He hates Whitthorne because he dared
to interrupt his plundering schemes
and he laid all manner of traps for him
and hired men to dog him and traduce
him and perjur0 themselves. Whit
thorne dared to follow and expose him
and every sentence that he has uttered
against him is fortified by tremendous
evidences and facts. He had been in
formed that Robson was preparing to
make these very charges, and hence
Robeson's sneaking insinuation that he |
put the cap on because it fitted him was |
dwelling nonsense. He did not sus-
tain a single charge with the least effort
at proof and when Whitthorne called |
him q perjured thief he sat with red |
bloated visage nervously drawing dry |
pen over a sheet of paper and never re-
covered himself. He thought he could
mash Whitthorne so effectually that he
would not dare resent it, and would
cover affrighted at his awful presence
and grOundless charges, but he was
in the man, and wher his foul
assault was met promptly and repealed
so vigorously, it was his to cover and
skulk. Every one knows that Whit
thorne had no chance to steal the school
fund and every one knows that he
would not have done it with a chance.
And every one knows that Robson is a
perjursr and a suborner and plunderer.
And now he stands branded with
His party cheered him
and he leads them. What q comment
Try upon that party and what disgrace '

Democracy WiIILiye.

We must not measure a mans de-
mOcracy by his opinion upon the state
debt. Democracy was born before this
miserable thing came into existence and
its principles go to the we'll being Of
freemen of all times and conditions.
This debt question is detail, a mere
question of how to administer subordi-
nate affair, and in no wise affects the
party principles. We despise the filthy
thing. We spit upon it. 1t comes in
between us and the party originated by
our fathers-the party that alone
champions free government and secured
it for us, maintained it and would yet
keep it up. That is what democracy is
for. 1t is not 2 question of to day or
tomorrow, but a principle born of
justice between man and man. 1t was
SAID for ages that man was net capable
of self-government and the history of
the downfall of republic after republic
justified the assertion. But the question
practice and made principle founded
upon justice and right and it was called
democracy. And now a miserable little
question OF detail is allowed to split up
and scatter its disciples. Shame upon
usl Let's fight for the grander idea,
the only idea-the existence OF the party
itself, and then correct our errors where
we made them, inside the party. No
hOIffn0 avar accommodates onufbip0
Democracy is as undying as truth itself,
because it is truth itself, and we may
split off here and there and bolt right
and left, but the grander idea lives and
will live as long as republics exist, be-
cause upon it they are founded. Friend,
in the name of free government and to
perpetuate it, and to honor the memory
of our fathers who died to secure it and |
lived to maintain it, let us not desert |
the old party because we are displeased |
with its action upon one little question |
of detail. Well need the party again |
and we had better preserve it for future |
use. II we persist in this split there |
are thousands of young men who never
experienced republican misrule and |
militia expressions who will be dis
gusted with US and go over to the re-
publicans. We have heard them talk.
They are going. And older ones who
have forgotten these times are going too.
Stop and think, men. Stay with the
party, in the name or freedom, stay,
and do not let us disgust others and |
drive them AWAY.
