S1andei' of the South.

1t did seem that tie bill for the adj
mission Of Dakota could afford no op-
portunlty for Republican Congressman
to indulge in their accustomed SANDER
OF the South, butSenator Spooner Of
Wisconsin, managed to use it in that
way. His excuse for so doing was af-
forded by the fact that Senator Butler,
Of South Carolina, had spoken In oppo-
sition to the bill.
The Wisconsin, Senator painted anew
the old pictures Of "ku-klux,p "night
raiders" "colored Republicans with
their shanties burned, driven INTO the
swamps dashed and excited, pursued and
hunted down. 1t is probable that the
Republicans have so long repeated these
outrageous ISLANDERS on the South that
they have come to belieye they are true.
1t is certain that great many good
people at the North have accepted them
as trne description of the condition of
affairs in this section, and their right.
eous indignation against the barberous
South is what keeps them in The Repub-
lican party. 1t is pity there is no way
to conYince them that their credulity is
imposed upon by political trlcksters, and
that the South has been the object OF
the vilest slander malice ever instigated
The South has despaired in the effort
to convince the North that these things
are not true, and will have to wait for
time to wear them out This will not
be, SO long as Senator Spooner's sort
can keep them alive. Birmingham

THE MOON.
BY WILLIE WILLIAMS.


The moon shines softly on the sea,
The stars come out and one by one,
Look down with gentleness on me,
AS if for only one they shone;
For ! am al1 alone.
The moon shines softly on the hills.
Where once my youthful footsteps strayed
The murmur of the gentle rills,
Still sounds where long ago / piaSed,
When youth life brighter made.
The moon shines softly on grave,
Where beloved ones laid to rest.
The soft breeze makes the long grass wave,
Above the quiet, silent breast
Oh. may we meet at last.
moon! Q, lovely, silent moon,
Tell me where those we loved have flown.
Those friends who left us all too soon,
In this cold, chilly world alone?i
Oil tell me where they've gone?
Alas! pale moon thou'rt silent still,
Thou hast no speech, no voice like tone;
Thypale, sweet face SO cold and chill,
Looks down in silence from thy throne,
On me; all, all alone.
