The above statement is absolutely false.
Hon. Henry BOIL, Secretary of the Demo-

not line, word or cents worth of printing
has been done for the Executive Committee
at the penitentiary. But when the Republi-
cans had control of our State Institutions
they used them Unfortunately for their

ley The Republican papers see that they
have the wrong side Of the liquor question, OF
rather they have no side at all. They have
wabbled SO that they have incurred the dis
pleasure Of the temperance people as well as
the liquor interest. They have no foothold
on any State Issue. Hence their desperate
resort to the sectional issue. The Cleveland
Leader, for instance, has lot Of paragraphs
declaring that Democracy means nullifca-
tion and repudiation;" that Democracy is
synonymous with the negro auc,ion-block;;"
that Democracy represents all the princi-
pies that Lee and jackson fought for;" that
Democracy in our present Federal Admins
tration means turning wounded soldiers and
honest men out Of Office, and putting jail
birds and horse thieves in their places, DC.

ssblooming idiot an editor can make Of him

The Pond and Scott Laws, both ofwhich were
unconstitutional, and both passed by Repub-

thousands Of dollars, yet these smart Repub'
lican Alecks have the cheek TO tell the PEG

sBr The abuse heaped upon Herman
Groschner, Of Henry, candidate for the Sen
ate from this district, by the Republican
newspapers, will only make him friends. Mr..
Groschner's offense is, that as a member Of
School Board he voted to retain a school su-
perintendent who had corrected the son Of q
prominent Republican. The raid upon him
is based purely upon personal enmity, and is
a tempest in teapot. Mr.. Groschner will
carry the district by heavy majority. Bee.

Foraker touch upon his speech last night

ing upon the campaign in Ohio, as if he had
spoken of the stirring times prior to the fall
of the Roman empire. He addressed mis-
named Grant Club in which he continued to
harp upon the issues Of twenty years ago, dis
regarding the fact that Grants dying words
were those of rejoicing that the war was over
and that the once severed Union was now
more firmly united than ever. The, entire
speech was that Of the demagogue, and was
simply an insult to the average intelligence

assured. Some canned harmony is badly

Some eight years ago l was inocula-

tie child fingered along until it was
about two years old, when its little
life was yielded up to the fearful poi
son. For six long yeers have suffered
untold misery. l was covered with
soses and ulcers from head to foot, and
in my great extremity prayed to die.
No language can express ny feelings
of woe during those loug six years.
1 had the best medical treatment, Sew
eraI physicians successfully treated me,
but to no purpose. Mercury and Potash
seemed to add fuel to the awful flame
which was deVouring me. About three
months ago was advised by friends
who had seen wonderful cures made
by it to try Swift's Specific. We got
two bottles, and 1 felt hope again re-
vive ia my breast-hope for health and
happiness again. But alas we had
srent so mnch for medical treatment
that we were too POOR to buy it. Oh!
the agony of that moment! Health and
happiness within your reach but too
poor to grasp it. applied, however,
to those who were able and willing to
help me, and have taken Swift's Spe-
cific, and am now sound and well once
more. Swift's Specific is the best blood
purifier in the world, and the greatest

Washington's State Chariot.

The chariot" in which Col.
Washington went to church was
what some satirist called "a speci-
men CT Gothic architecture on
Wheels" with mahogany body,
green Venetian blinds, pictured
panels, and a gorgeous coat of-arms
fully "tricked' and emblazoned on
the door. 1t was drawn by four
horses and on special occasions be-
sides the coachman and footman,
two liveried outriders completed the
style of the turnout, which was
not more snowy than others of the
neighborhood. The planter gentry
in those days made large crops OF
tobacco on rich land, with negro
labor, and sold it in the markets of
Liverpool aud Bordeaux at from
twenty five to sixty pence pei
pound, and they displayed them
selves on all occasions as "pers rs
of quality"
An authentic description Of Gen
Washingten's riding dress gives
him a laced hat, stone colored coat
and gilt buttons, blue surtout, buff
breeches, boots and gilt spurs. He
rode with a Pelham bit, and was as
complete a horseman as could be
found between Boston and Virginia
Peale's portrait represents him in
the uniform of the colonial service,
blue, faced with scarlet and
wearing around his neck a col
collar and plare, with the number
of his regiment, II, engraved on it
The traditions of Truro Parish
represent Washington in his old
age as cold, stern and unapproach
able, but they also bear witness tc
his sense of justice, which never vi
olated the obligations of the most
minute household relations anC
would not allow the slightest wrong
to the humbiesC of his slaves,

First, l cannot forbear making men
ton of the beauty of the weather of the
past few days. Even inanimate nature
seems TO feel and own its presence
Wheat in this section of country is
looking badly, owing to the hard freez-
es-not more than oRe-third of a stand.
we have a splendid school being
taught at Liberty under the supervision
of Miss Virgie Petty. We think her an
accomplished teacher and well deserves
the patronage of the people.
Anthony VinsOn, after an absence
from our midst of about ten months,
returned few days since. He has been
trying the Arkansas swamps of Missis-
sippi county. From his appearance on
return the climate of the country
seemed not to have had very favorable
tendency on his health. We are sorry
to say he is looking badly. He don't
praise the country any and We don't
blame him.
Our vicinity was enlivened on last
Saturday and Sunday by the bright
smiling faces OF two OF Pleasant HOl-
lows gallant gents, Messrs. j. B. Ed
wards and G. NJ. Gardner. We hope
their visit was so pleasant that they
VIII call again soon.
"A few of the young people gathered
at the residence of Mrs. L. A. VinsoI
last Saturday night, and spent few
hours very pleasantly in singing.
