The late Legislature will pass into
history as one remarkable for its
relatively large number ofnotorious-
ly unfit members. Hudgins of Polk,
whose proper place was in Georgia
penitentiary for house burning;
Millsaps of Van Buren,, whose ig-
norance and hypocrisy unfit him for
intelligent company; Baker of Ben
ton, a good hearted old fellow, who,
by his lack of both intelligence
and education became the laughing
stock of the assembly-all are liv-
ing monuments to the weakness OF
human nature as exhibited by their
constituency in electing them. 1t
shows how men may be swayed by
prejudice or blinded BY single
idea. 1t shows how men may be-
come absorbed in questions that are
not issues and how ready they are
to measure men by any rule that
the demagogus may offer. Those
counties that have forgotten the
Jeflersonian test of applicants for
office, or regard that standard as too
high, should at least require afiirma-
answers to the questions "Has he
got any sense? Is he properly out
side of the penitentiary?"-[Darda

The sentiment expressed in the
above applies to all public posi-

County or Township. To combine
and elect the stupid and ignorant In
order to crafty personal malice or

of narrow minded demoguery.

Associated Press Report,

NASHVILLE, April IA curious
complication has arisen in the State
Legislature. The Republican men,
bers of the Senate, in order to pre-
vent the passage of the House bill
providing for the registration of
voters in communities having 1000
| Inhabitants, absented themselves at
roll-call yesterday to prevent a
quorum. The sergeant-at-arms was
empowered by the Speaker to sum-
mon and, If necessary, arrest absent,
members. The sergeant arrested
Senator Tamsey, one Of the alb
sentees, last night. The latter sp-
piled for a writ of habeas corpus to
Judge Reid, of the Circuit Court of
this county, who commanded the
sheriff to have the body Of Senator
Ramsey before him this morning.
Meantime Senator Ramsey was
brought before the bar of the SEN
ate, which had been in executive
session all the forenoon, and the
sheriff was refused admittance to
serve the writ on the Senate officers.
The Senate has just been adjourned,
and Ramsey has been released.
The writ of Attachment from Judge
Reid for the arrest of the assistant
sergeant at arms is still in the hands
of the sheriff, who has not yet been
able to serve it. The affair has pro
duced considerable excitement, and
numbers of people were attracted
to the State Capitol this morning
The Republican members of the
Senate give as an explanation of
their action that they regard the
registration bill as an attempt to
disfranchise several thousand voters.
On the other hand, the Democrats
claim that the object of the bill is
to prevent the importation Of Illegal
voters into the chief cities, and 10
preserve tie purity of the ballot.
The assistant sergeant-at-arms
subsequently appeared voluntarily
before Judge Reid, whose decision
in the matter of contempt is reserv-
ed. The Speaker of the Senate
this afternoon appointed several ad-
ditional sergeant-at-arms, with IN
structioDs to prosecute the search
for absentees from the Senate.
Several Of the latter were discovered
at IL o'clock tonight in room in
the Maxwell House. They are
locked in and defy arrest, and per-
sist in their refusal to present them
selves at the bar of the Senate.

beaming face was as welcome and
refreshing as the glow of green

elbow are you, Dick, old boy?"
exclaimed Garland, as he clasped
Bright's hand with ferver; $50 glad
to see a friendly face and have a
talk that has not got petition in it.
Sit down.
The two friends sat together on a
sofa. Garland was thoroughly ex-
bausted aud positively reveling in
the luxury of quiet eonfab with
an old chum. Bright drew long
face, looked terribly embarrassed,
and sta.amered out: "But--but-
you know, | do want an Office, and
l have come to you for help" Gar
land bent on him a reproacbful
glance, as one who should say, Et
tu Brute, then sighed and murmur-
ed, "Well, old boy, let's have it,
What can | do?"
Bright's expression of solemnity
deepened "Well, I'll tell you,
Senator; / don't want anything
here, you know. ! see the boys
are hungry and the removals are
few. want to go away. want
to go to Palestine and"- Here he
leaned over with an engaging yet
anxious gesture and whispered, 81
want to be inspector of pork at
Jerusalem. It's small Office,
Nobody has thought of it, and it is
all | ask"
Mr.. Garland was already dizzy
from hearing similar applications
poured into his throbbing ear all
day. He stretched out his hand
and said, mechanically, "Let's see
your papers. I'll do what / cam"
Bright had it all drawn up in
regular style, from solemn pream'
bde and a set of burning resolutions
and as Garland read, with Bright
standing before him IN an attitude
of tinid expectancy, the fun dawn,
ed on him. Then a Macedonian
peal of laughter startled those grave
precincts as the two shook hand:
and laughed in concert. Garland
tried to induce Bright to play il
over on Secretary Bayard, and of.
fered to go with him and to treat to
dinner afterward, but Bright de.
clined the seductive proposition and
they compromised on a jolly lunch

place on the river Cushk, where the

The Afghan's loss was 500 men, to-

We have a special reason for wishing to
reduce our stock. We have rented our
present store to Messrs. j. Rosenheim Il
Co., and 1t will be necessary for US to va
cate as soon as possible, so that needed
repairs may be made. Our new building
on corner Broughton and Bull streets is
rapidly going towards completion. Ii is
better TO sell our stock of goods, even with
out one cent Of profit, than TO carry them
over 10 our new building Spring trade
is almost over, but judging from the i'm
mense crowds which continually pack our
stor one would hardly think SO. On last
Saturday the crowd was so great that we
were compelled to close our doors. Such
n state of affairs, we think, never before
existed in this city. There is areasOn for
ali this. People have actually awakened
TO the fact that A. X. Altmayer d Co. are
selling out, literally giving away goods
some of them below the cost OF prOduc-
ton. If you miss the opportunity which
the house of A. Il. Altmayer ~ Co. are
now offering to purchase goods at q rdi-
culous price, you will have no one but
yourself to thank for the needed expense
YOU will be quito when you do want them.

be astOnished al the reduction we have

med full of bargains lust now. There are
special lines OF goods for Ladies', N sses
aud Children and for Gentlemen. They
were selected especially for this season,
and all marked at less than cost of impOr-
tatiOn. Here are some fine Ribbons. and
before we begin we want 10 say that they
are really fine goods. The all-Silk is
genuine all-silk, and the sash Ribbons are
OF the finest quality. We say t0is because
the prices are SO low, that it seems impOs-

will match these matchless values in En-
