A DUDE AT THE OAR.

orousIy at the non appearance of the
sixth man, who was half an hour
late, a well~dressed and modest
young stranger strolled into the boat

newcomer was, with a grand chow
of hospitality, invited to take the
vacant oar.
"Well, don't know, gentlemen"

watch doubtfully. "I'm a stranger

"I'll do the best, I can. gentle

The boat went down toward Hum

A MAGIC POWER !
A Secret Agent NJ Work.

We we're surprised the other day to
learn that certain individuals in this city,
who had for many years yielded TO Whist
was apparently an Inevitable fate, were
startled from their torpid condition Of
semi-stupidiiy, into asserting their right
to "life, liberty and the pursuit Of hsppi-
ness" These parties had been bound by
an influence as powerful az it was incom.
prehensible. They knew not the cause,
yet they were victims to the result, They
were enchanted, but they could not dis<
Germ by what means they had been man
scled. They had long sought deliver
ance in vain. Their appeals to science
and the knowledge contained in books
we're equally unavailing. At last, relief
came. II was not through any action OF
the President, or of Congress, for their
trouble was not of political character.
Neither did the Governors message re-
lieve them, nor any setien of the new
Legislature, for it was out of their power
and foreign to their jurisdiction. Yet
they we're suddenly and efectua,ly re-
!, leased from the bondage they suffered,
and placed on the equal scale of human
happiness. What was their trouble?"
is what our readers will ask. They hsd
been rendered helpless by that universal
enemy-rheumatism. They had not
| walked or even moved without pain for
years, and on the strong recommends
lions of friends "who had been there"
they tried Britannia, and were at once
relieved and radically cured. Britannia
IL what did it. 1t acted like magic
power. This secret sgent quietly coursed
through their veins, removed tie cause
Of the trouble, liberated the captives
from their doomed condition, and now
they congratulate each other on the
accomplishment Of such triumph, and
the acquisition of the knowledge. by
which they can at any time resist the
encroschmenis OF their common foe. We
could give the names Of the parties, BIZ
will wait future time.

New YORK Commercial Advertiser, Rep.
We do not intend at this time to dis
cuss the details OF figures marshaled by
Mr.. Blaine. There is much to say about
them, but the discussion ia foreign to our
present purpose. That purpose is to
point ont with emphasis and with regret
that Mr.. BlRine's spirit is not the spirit
Of General Grant at Appomattox; that II
the evils he complains Of exist they have
existed during score of years Of Repub-
iican rule; that patriotic Democrats, and
especially patriotic southern Democrats
have assured us with the utmost solem-
nifty that, however hard 1t might be TO
cope with some existing evils In the
south In previous circumstances, they
would and should melt like mist before
the rising sun after Democratic success
In q Presidential election. For this
reason, while waving the minor ques'
tions Of grace and delicAoy involved in 4
defeated candidates. taking such an atti
tude, at such a moment, those oitiLeni
will agree with us, we take II, when h
express our hearty SORROW that Mr.. Blaine
spoke the words he did speak yesterday
at Augusta.

WATERBURY,, Conn.,, Nov. 1S.-During
the past campaign the excitement ran
high here and the Republicans openly
expressed their intolerance Of AL who
voted the Independent ticket. Now that
Cleveland is elected these Republicans
have begun to put their threats into
execution and have begun boyootting the
prominent physicians and storekeepers
who voted for Cleveland. Among their
''help" in the factories they have already
made their wrath felt, assigning as q
cause for cutting down wages that 1t is
simply because Cleveland is elected.
