The Wretched Italian Peasant.
 lSt. lanes Gaxette.l

Life beneath an Italian sky is popularly imagined to be . pleasant form of ex. issence. Such, however, does not appear to be invariably the case. The accoun, given by Mir. Beauclerk-in . report to the foreign ofice, on the agricultural con- dition of ltaly-of peasant life in Pied mont, is not of . glowing character. Day laborers who possess nothing are, he states, the majority of the population they amount, in Piedmont, to one-fiifh oi the rural population. The landlords are habitually absentees, taking no interest whatever in their tenants, in return for which they have excluded almost every man of means from the list of councillors at the communal elections. The towns people deride and despise the country folk, and are looked upon by them as proud and selfish. h Novara the farm laborer is said ito contend with every species of privatios, from the cradle to she grave" His infancy is passed in the care of strangers, or rolling in the mud At seven years old he receives a few months per year of elementary schooling, and passes the remainder in tending goats; at ten he already gains some small wages; at twelve he sleeps away from home, and is regularly employed and at 6fteea he undertakes the hardest of farm work. The men rise in summer at two a. m., in winter at four a. m-awakened by beating stick on an empty box. In the former season they work from twelve to fifteen hours per day. When i'll, the hospital receives him when old and unfit for work. they are forsaken and uncared for yet the peasants seldom take to beg ging, even when deprived of all resources. Girls take part in field work at the age ot fourteen or fifteen. At night they catch frogs and fish in the marshes. At thirty they are matured women, old at forty, decrepit at fifty, with bent backs and oronzed faces. Many families lead a nomadic life. Every Michaelmas their household goods, worth perhaps a total sof six pounds, are packed on bullock cart, and a new home or situation is sought. In the kill regions many of the villages are notable for their excessive 6lth. Throughout the plains, master and workmen live together for years with out the change of syllable of good will. In every hamlet class distinctions are complete, down the entire samut of the social scale. Laborers usually have many children, ~and," says the report of the Italian government commission that has been recently inquiring iIso their condition, "indeed they have nothing else.'

A correspondent of the New York
Star, the Tammany Democratic
organ of New York City, has been
traversing Governor Cleveland's
state with a view of ascertaining
his popularity and prospects, and
finds them both at very low ebb.
He learned ut Buffalo that Cleve-
land was not popular in his old
home and that the laboring classes
of that city would do their best to
defeat him. In Lewis County the
correspondent saw a Democratic
attempt to hold a ratification meet
ing and torch-light procession
proved failure on account of the
lack of interest in Cleveland's cam
paign on the part of Democrats.
In Albany and elsewhere the same
apathy was visible, and leading
Democrats who keep themselves
informed of the drift of things he
found everywhere depressed.
The correspondent concludes, re-
gretfully, that "the country will
have to endure another four years
of Republican rule under the leader
ship of Blaine" while to the editor
ofthe Star it appears "that some
thing very unexpected must turn
up to avert Democratic disaster in

Our GenrcatiOn's Changes

There are thousands of people
living in this country to-day who
never expected slavery and other
fixed institutions to be brought to
an end in their day and genera
ton Those wrongs to a down
trodden race were deemed invinci-
bic, but yet one generation has
seen them blOttcd out, and now
the present one sees Just as great
evils confronted with an army just
as strongas any that ever waged
war for the benefit Of the Cypress
ed. Change is written everywhere.
The ills and woes of mankind are
claiming attention, and the coming
generation can erect the monument
over many of the houIishing evils
of today. In no profession is there
more advancement being made
than in the science Of medicine.
Physicians are learning to practice
common sense as well as medicine.
They are beginning to prescribe
Peruna for a large number of the
complaints of mankind, and with
astonishing success. They should
keep on in the good work and the
end is assured. Send for the book

a partial analysis Of the doings
Of the last session of our Bourbon
Legislature shows that its enact
ments may be thus classified:
Fifty-three (53) Acts for the re-
lief Of defaulting treasures, or other
collecting officers, and their sure
ties; or to release individuals, from
obligations to the State.
Fifty-fve (55) Acts for the bene-
fit Of railroad cOrpOrationS-to in
crease their powers and privileges,
or to diminish their liabilities and
responsibilities to the State and
people.
Twenty-Five 800 Acts having
partizan objects,-to grasp party
power or to prosecute political OPP
pOnentS.
Twenty COY Acts increasing the
salaries Ofpublic officers.
This isa beautiful record to 60
before the people upon. And these
Bourbons have now forced an extra
session at a cost of at least $4,000
to the people, for further legisla-
ton in their favOrite lines.
How long, ye gods, shall these
usurping and bloody tyrants abuse
our patience Wing.

A Disgrace.

1t is a disgraceful fact that the
Legislative body of our State, con-
posed of the 'best people,, should
have most important business items
in such a condition as to necessitate
an extra session of tho Legislature.
1t lis expected of onr representatives
in the General Assembly that they
should know what to do, and it is
their sworn duty to attend to it as
expeditiously and carefully as pos
sible. And now, after a long session,
they adjourn and come home leav-
ing a most important matter in
such shape as to require a reas-
sembling of that large and cumbrous
body for the purpose ofenacting
that which they should have done
at the late session. They ought
not to receive or ask one cent pay
for the extra session. Roanoke

The Irish Revolt.
From the National Republican. !


American citizens Of Irish birth
are very numerous. They abound
in large numbers in all the great
cities, and there is scarcely town
or even village in the whole United
States that does not have a few
sons Of 'the Emerald Isle among
its resident population. With here
and there an exception thesenatura-
lied citizens have heretofore acted
with -the Democratic party, and
without their votes the party
would be in a hopeless minority in
every State of the Union, with the
possible exception of Kentucky.
For the first time in the history
of the country the distinctively
Irish sentiment has arrayed itself
against the Democratic candidate
for the Presidency. The Irish
Americans, who have brought with
them to their adopted country the
feelings and opinions which animate
the masses Of the Irish people at
home, will not vote for Cleveland.
He represents the political ideas
which obtain in England, and his
election would be hailed as a
great triumph by the British Free
Traders. The Irish voters are
not disposed to assist in fastening
a policy on the country which
would benefit British manufacturers
at the expense ofAmerican labOrers.
The great mass-meeting in New
York city on Monday night mar
ked a new departure in politics.
Three thousand Irishmen crowded
Chickering Hall and an uncOunted
multitude filled the neighbOring
streets. On the platform were a
large number of gentlemen who
universally recognized as leaders
of Irish opinion. The orators Of
the evening were representative
Irishmen, and the great assembly
in its enthusiasm was truly Irish.
Henry Carey Baird declared that
he had been waiting for twenty
five years for the time TO come
when IriShmen would show a dis.
position to fight England-not by
shot and shell-but by breaking
down her industries. Mr.. Baird
promised 100000 majority for
Blaine and Logan in Pennsylvania.
This great New York meeting is
but the beginning Of the Irish re-
volt against the Democratic party.
Blaine and Logan clubs, composed
eXclusivelyof Irishmen who have
heretofore been Democrats are
forming in Northern and Eastern
New York, in the manufacturing
towns of Massachusetts, and in
New Jersey. The accessions to
the Republican ranks in Western
New York will more than offset
the OBJECTIONS Of the Independents
in New York city and Brooklyn.
The outlook could not be more
encouraging.

Republican Prospects in the
south.

II. G. Parsons, of Virginia, said
to a Tribune reporter: "Blaine will
carry Virginia. l did not think it
possible for the Republicans to
carry the Old Dominion at the time
of the convention, but now I am
convinced that they can do so.
Will the negroes will be allowed to
votea Yes. l am Of the opinion
that there will be no intimidation
resorted to by Democratic party
managers this fall; and my reason
for thinking so is that Blaine is per.
sonally very popular in the South
and especially in Virginia. If the
negro voters go to the polls and
elect him they will not be inter
ferred with. Cleveland is not pop
ular.
"What is the outlook for the Re
publicans in some of the other
Southern States? They can carry
South Carolina. They have the
votes to do it, and the figures in
past elections will show it. North
Carolina is good fighting ground,
and in Florida the Republicans
have a small, but sure majority.
This influx from the North has
been large in the last four years,
and its influence will be felt in the
next election in Florida. Malone
opened the campaign in Virginia
last week and we have every rea-
son to feel encouraged over tn c
prospects there."-[ New York Tri-
bune.

MIR Harper Oh Blaine.

In the Bourbon circles through
out the South, much comfort has
been felt in the opposition to Blaine
of "Harpers Weekly" nOtwith-
standing that throughout its whole
existence that paper has abuse d
and ridiculed Southern public men,
Just as it rails at Blaine now. The
Philadelphia Press publishes some
very interesting correspondence Of
recent date bearing upon the mo.
tives of the Harpers in their course
towards Blaine.
Shenandoah herald. [volume] (Woodstock, Va.) 1865-1974, 1884-08-08

Rev. DR.. Dewitt Talmage, the
able and distinguished Presby
terrain divine, got off the following
in a recent sermon, or lecture,
about Blaine after his nomination:
If the best man God ever made
ran for the Presidency, he would
have to wade chin-deep through
Obloquy. The first target was put
up two weeks ago, and the next
will be put up two weeks hence.
The target with most holes in it
will be elected President. De-
famatiOn elected Garfield, Lincoln,
and Jackson. AS soon as a man
achieves anything by brilliancy,
eloquence or craftsmanship, all the
hounds of hell are turned against
him.
