he Aberdeen Examiner in commen t,

The Aberdeen Examiner in comment t.
ing at length upon the issuance of State
bonds says it "is far better to do this
than to unnecessarily increase the rate Of
taxation or permit the warrants issued
by the Auditor to be hawked upon the
streets at discount as they were in the
days of Radical rule. We agree with
our much esteemed contemporary. but
it is a sad commentary upon Hon. Robt.
Lowry's administration to insinuate that
the only alternative from "haying wars
rants hawked about the streets at a dis
count as they were during Radical rule"
is to run the State in debt by issuing
bonds.-New Mississippian.a

The drop in. the price Of quinine may
have been caused by the large shipments
Of Collins Ague Cure into the malarial
and chills and fever districts throughout

supposed nothing but quinine would cure.
Judging from the large shipments daily Of
this remedy from the laboratory of the

An old Sea Dogs Sweetheart.


1t was an old sea Captain in a certain
Maine village, who had long been enam-
ored Of pretty maiden young enough to
be his daughter. The latter was, how
ever, engaged to a gallant young fisher
man of the place. One day the old sea
Captain was calling upon the maiden's
mother, who is respectable
but by no means comedy
widow, and somewhat, without quite
understanding how it came about, the
honest Captain became aware that he had
offered himself in marriage to the widow
and that she had promised to consider"
Getting out of the house more dead than
alive, he was stumping along cOnsOling
himself with the idea that at least if he
married the mother he should live in the
same house with the daughter, when
he was joined by a brother ma
riner. "There goes Maria Dunlap"
remarked the friend. Maria Dunlap
was the name of the unattainable
young woman. "Did We know her beau
had married a girl over to the Centre I'M
beknowst to Maria?' "Now, by the holy
SPOON" exclaimed our Captain, ''if that
hain't just my luck" Suddenly he dart
ed away from his astonished gossip and
gained the side of Maria. ''Maria," he
exclaimed eagerly, 81 always liked ye
best, but Pve somehow got afoul of your
ma and offered to marry her, and she's
considerin.' l haint much hope, but oh,
Maria, if she does say no will you have
me, Maria? Oh Maria, do say you will ="

In the Last Ditch.

Outrage campaign material appears to.
be rather scarce at this time, and some of
the ultra Republican journals have fallen
back on the stories about Andersonville
and other Southern prisons. There are
symptoms ola determination to takeu the
cry Of the alleged abuse Of prisoners all
along the bloody shirt line. and to make
last great effort to fire the Northern heart,
and so turn a considerable number of
votes in the doubtful States to the Re-
publican party.
This subject has been often discussed.
ana is fully understood by all intelligent
and Unprejudiced men of both sections of
the country. That there were instances
of the cruel treatment of prisoners on
both sides cannot be denied, but the
charge Of Nanton and systematic cruelty
to Federal Prisoners in the hands of the
COnfederates has more than once been
successfully me- and contrOverted. 1t has
been shown by ildIsputable evidence that
the prisoners received the best food,
clothing and medral treatment, with
rare exceptions, tn, Confederate Gov
eminent was able to afford, and whatever
unnecessary suffering tie Federal prison
ers underwent could have been avoided
by general exchange, for which the South
was at all times anxious.
Notwithstanding the disadvantages I'M
der which the South labored, being I'M
able on account of the blOckadeto obtain
supplies of medicine or clOthinaOr food
to fully supply the armies in the field, a
comparison of the mortality among pris-
oners in the North and South shows that
the balance is largely in favor OF the
latter.
of Federal prisoners during the war tie
Confederates had in round numbers go,
600, of whom p, SO died in prison. Of
Confederate prisoners there were taken in
all 22O, 900, of whom %, 436 died in prison.
These figures can be verified approx
| matelv by reference to reliable reports in
| the War Department at Washington.
After the lapse of nearly twenty years
evrr- Intelligent man, whether he
lives in the North or in the South,
ought to be able to look at this
question dispassionately and inquire
| for the real causes OF the difference in
mortality. There is no doubt that the
Federal authorities were able to give
prisoners much better care than the Con-
federates could, and probably the differ
ence in climate accounts for the differ
ence in mortality of prisoners in the two
sections. but those who are endeavOring
tOmake the issue of Southern cruelty
cannot deny the facts contained in the
statistics above alluded to.
While the tens Of thousands Of good and
true men who fought on either side are
showing patriotic evidences of fraternity
and good feeling, the efforts of the bloody
shirt howlers to reopen the wounds of the
war can but rebound to their own hurt.

About Canned Food.

Whether canned food is poisonous is a
question that is attracting some atten-
ton at present. At a meeting of the Med
ice-Eegal Society in New York city last
Thursday night a paper was read by DR..
J. G. johnson, of Brooklyn, who stated
that in March he attended family of six
persons who were suffering from poison,
and he believed they had been poisoned
by eating tomatoes from can, the lid of
which had been sOldered on with mu-
riatic amalgam. The doctor insisted that
amalgam of this kind was extensively
used by firms putting up canned goods.
The inference from his remarks was that
this amalgam was very dangerous. He
gave quite number of rules for detecting
unwhOIesOme canned goods. There were
those present at the meeting who denied
that muriatic acid was dangerous when
taken in such small quantities as could
possibly get into the contents Of cans
from the soldering. If a suspicion gets
abroad that canned goods are UnwhOle-
some, the sale Of them, which is now
enormous, will rapidly fall off. There
ought to be such rigid laws with respect
to canned goods as to insure their whole
someness. People are beginning to be
afraid to touch many articles of food that
are necessaries. Flour, baking powders,
sugar, coffee and syrup are adulterated. 1t
is almost impossible to get genuine butter,
and now canned food is attacked by some
Of the doctors. 1t is about as much as
one person can do to look after the market
ing for family, provided there is a de-
termination to have only wholesome
articles Of food.
