1t is announced from headquar-
tiers that Gen. Whittherne is Sena-
tor Harris's candidate for senator to
succeed Jackson. He is going to
have Whit. elected to congress in
Ballentine's place as a boost to rush
him into the senate over Jackson,
whom he despises. No one else is to
be consulted and all must yield i'm
plicit obedien ce and trust in King
Isham. This scheme will CRATE
harshly on Mr.. Vertrees's ears, but
they are long enough to bear it. He
had fondly hoped that if he could
p'ison Bate he could get in himself.
The humble governor himself will
be little upheaved when he learns
the Will of Tennessee's proprietor,
as will also several other statesmen
who clamor for opportunity to con-
secrate their talents to the service of
their country. We love old Whit,
but we don't like to see our lordly
senator gallop over the rights of
the people with such ruthless, ram
pant, red-headed, ADVANTAGEOUS reck-
lessness.

A Remarkable Case.

Tuesday morning a woman in
Edgefield received a severe and re-
markable injury. While she was
milking a cow a little dog ran up
to her. The cow endeavored to
hook the dog, but instead of strik-
ing the dog, a point of her horn
struck the woman and made a
wound fully twenty inches long
across the abdomen. The skin was
torn that Gistcsn"a and thrown up
like a flap nearly to the breast.
Strangely enough no flesh wound
was made, the injury being confined
to the skin which was torn and
thrown up as escribed.-Banner

The American is struggling hard
to get the mastery of the democrat
ic party. 1t assumes the right to
speak for it upon all matters and it
declares with emphasis that no one
shall be considered a democrat who
does not follow it blindly. 1t claims
absolute authority and brooks no
differing. 1t calls all persons who
differ with It mot democracy indie
pendents, and it calls them names
and imputes dishonesty. A party
is an aggregation of men about a
set of principles, but the American
demands that democrats shall rally
around Il, and then 1t will name the
principles. It thinks democracy is
an organization OF men to get office,
and it subordinates all things else
to the effort to get the offices. A
man dare not have an opinion until
after he sWears he will surrender it
and let the American frame anoth-
er one for him. A man must sur
render absolutely his manhood and

The KnklnX Khan.

George aBraden has a long and
well written article in the July Biv-
ouac responding to Mr.. Wilson's ar
ticle in the Century last year. He
combats the idea that the Kuklux
Khan was started for amusement.
He recites the history of the times
that gave it birth Iand shows that
it was a necessary outgrowth of the
expressions that were heaped upon
the southern people Mr.. Braden
arrives at all his conclusions by
clearest logical reasoning and es-
tablishes them beyond peradYen-
ture. Mr.. Wilson wrote on the
ground, in presence of and assisted
by men who were at the first meet
ing, and he wrote from a stand
point of absolute knowledge. Mr.
Braden's fne-spun reasoning must
yield before the grim facts. The
writer's are not much at variance at
last, however. Mr.. Wilson shows
land knows) that the Khan was or
ganize6 for amusement, but he rec
ognized and recorded the very same
reasons and facts that changed it
almost at its inception into a band
of regulators. Mr.. Braden is mis-
taken in supposing that the sepa-
rate dens were under no general
ruler. The whole system was con-
trolled by perfectly organized au-
thority and orders were promulga-
ted with all the regularity and
obeyed with as much Difference as
those sent out by the war depart
ment. In the very nature of things
abuses were possible and robbers
and assassirs frequently donned its
garb to commit viilaIries, but these
are not to be considered in making
up judgment upon the history and
usefulness of the Invisible Empire.
These Villains we're punished by
the Khan when caught. There can
be no doubt that the organization
originated in fun but that it almost
immediately became vigilant, the
times absolutely demanding and
creating such an order, and that it
served a great and righteous pur-
pose and rescued a nation from des-
potism and the negro race from al
most extinction.
