all we're shouting happy. But
with all this happiness, still Mrs.
Paryenu was not quito happy, aud
so a private banquet was held,
where poor people had no business
rejoicing over this victory, and Oh
Monday, forty silk stockings con
tributed ten dollars each, and had
a special meeting, where the odor o.
the poor man conld not molest them
and they were right. The poor
crowd had had their shout and
punch on Sunday, aud that was
enough for them. But, alas
happiness is but u name, after all,

FusIga lIoEEFs

Last tuesday the exesutive com
mitiees Of the democratic, repabli-
can and Independent parties Of
Madison eounty, in this State, met
at Canton TO consider questions
pertaining to the coming canvass
During the day the republicans
made Overtures 10 the democrats TO
form a fusion ticket between these
two parties. The proposition re
eeiyed encouragement on the part
Of the democrats, but the matter
was left TO be considered and rati-
fed by the county conventions OF
each party. The Independents see
ing that their chances would be
rather slim if the other parties
coalesced, made a proposition to
the republicans and offered a fairer
division OF the Offices, but the re-
publicans would not accept, they
believing, no doubt, their chances
OF succeSs woald be better by uni
ting with The democrats.
While we do pot altogether IA
vor these ''iusiousarrangements, no
doubt 1t may work out all right in
counties where there are large re-
publican majorities and where at
the same time, there is n third par

any man aud with any party in op-
position to a democrat, no matter
by what name that party may be
called-anything to beat n demo
crat is their motto-and it shows
great loss of confidence in their
leaders or in their ability to carry
the election when they propose
coalition with democrats.
