The cravings OF something not pos
sessed by Us implies that our present
felicity is not complete, but We should
not borrow trouble, for experience has
proven that it will be left with us as
fast As We wish TO use it. Flowers OF
beauty and fragrance spriug from the
most neglected places. There is Joy
and happiness everywhere if we 90
not look for too much OF it at time.
1t is our Incidence or bad temper
that causes Us to mourn the absence
Of happiness; a cheerful confidence
and disposition to believe that as
much enjoyment as We require is with
in our reach, and that We will be aid
ei in our endeayors to obtain it by a
proper determination to protest a.
gainst all drafts on our imagination
which emanate from any supposed
misery.
True benevoleuce is as genial as
the morning sun, which is equal unto
all in its diffusion of light. 1t is the
principle which requires us to deal
Justly and relieve poverty and distress
whether the subject be friend or foe.
IL Is the spirit that admits the cherish.
ing of worth in the humblest individ-
ual in the same degree as would be
meted out to the most favored.
A God with passions like ourselves
ruling the universe susceptible Of
charge, with preJudices for the few,
excluding the masses though equally
merltorious, may be regarded as the
nrerogstive of a personal avensinc
God. A divinity whose laws are in.

Memphis, Vicksburg, Baton
Roug e, Shreveport and other towns
which declared in favor Of non
intercourse, says the N. o. Timet
Democrat, somehow or other have
come round to the opinion that the
danger is not so terrific as they had
supposed. In Memphis this con-
clusion seems to have been reached
in consequence of the Suspicious
case of fever which o ccurred there
and which turned out to be moth
ing more than a case of too mucf
whisky.
This same suspicious case il
well known to many Palaskians
He had similar attack here las
year when there was no yellow

one Pulaskian remembers him re.
gretfully, that is they regret having

gard him as a suspicious case If h

1t Is positively asserted by Chair.
man Jewott of the democratic com
mittee Of Illinois that the republi-
cans are importing negro voters in
to that state. He does not deal in
glittering generalities, but gives
names and dates and places. As q
result, the members of the Hen
bricks League throughout the state
have been instructed to pay par
ticular attention to this subject and
to secure the names and residence
of every colored man who comes into
their respective territories. The re
publicans are playing a desperate

1t is very common thing for
everybody to abnse railroads for
their monopolies and exhorbitant
Determinations, and no one will
deny that they are little grinding
at times, yet let us, while We abuse
them for their wrong doing some
times, give them credit for noble
and charitable deeds at times. The
railroad companies, especially o.
the south, have shown that they
are not altogether soulless. They
have done an immense amount o.
charity work during the recent
yellow fever troubles. They have
never refused to assist those af-
alicted people even without money
and without price. They have riskef
aheir lives to alleviate the condi-
lion of Others and have done mucl
for which they should be pFsised

Yellow Fever.

The reports from every locality
in the south, with the exception of
Decatur, are very favorable. There
were SO new cases reported at
Jacksonville Tuesday with no
deaths. The situation at Decatur
is not encouraging. Four well de-

Tuesday morning with two Others
that were thought to be yellow fe

cases were under treatment and it
was thought two of them would
certainly be dead by morning.

The Nashville American utters
words of wisdom when it says: The
democracy of Tennessee, as we see
it, is in good working order, and
the democratic majority will be
large. 1t is to be regretted that a
few democrats are throwing their
votes away on the prohibition CAL
didates. For people who believe in
prohibition and hope some day to
see it succeed, it is strange course,
as it necessarily creates in the
minds of partisans a prejudice from
