Hypnotic Cynicism

THE fiery imps romped round about
The white, hot pillars of the throne.
With demon shrek and holman shout,
Anon. mortal free, did groan
On earth again, and of it, too0
l traversed hyways learnt
And Jared along in life's lmbue-
In maged he'll my love I'd burnt.
Then flew ! on imagined wings
Unto Il realm so bright:
When fancy saw such loved things,
Where every heart seemed light.
The youth and beauty of that world
As sweet companions dwelt,
An eternal happiness saw unfurled
By humankind ne er felt
Then far beyond this loving band,
My dreamy fancy went,
Until an angel touched my hand
And asked me whittier bcntE
The soft light of that angel one,
Did mock my pride and birth,
And, failing down, Iworshipped her,
Unknowing | was earth.
Then she did chide my weakened heart,
And bid me stronger be,
For in that vast and heavenly mart
I'd none but angels see.

If she in truth had sp Ike,
She answered, love had led me where
Was one loved and then | woke.

Hon. MORRISON r. WAITE Chiet
Justice of the United States Sup
RENE Court died at his residence
in Washington D. Q. on last Fri
day after less than a weeks illness.
Aside from the great esteem in
which he was held as a patriotic
citizen and eminent jurist, his
death will be mourned as a public
calamity. To his able and success
tul services we owe the Geneva
award, as Chief Justice of the
Supreme Court, he filled the office
well and his name will go down to
posterity with that of Marshall
and Chase as a learned and
incorruptible Judge. He was ap-
pointed Dy President Grant in
1874 to succeed Chief Justice Sal
men p. Chase, and died at the age
of II years.

TARIFF REFORM.

All hail brave Cleveland, Tariff
reform Mills. Mormon Butler &
CO. Keep mp the lick and make
your Northern allies squirm under
the party lash. Shield and pro
tect Southern products from foreign
competition, but mcrcilessly as
sail wool, lumber, salt and other
Northern products. Unite the
Southern democracy npon the par
ty shibboletk Of hurrah! for the
South, and continue to put it, as
the Mobile R>yister puts the
case.
ut is a wise and honest com
promise upon which all Democrats
should unite If we of the South
do not hang together upon this bill
there is lively prospect of many
of us hanging separately. Ia
other words, the Democratic party
can win the next Presidency, th"
next House, and the Senate after
1889 upon this tariff bill. If they
do not unite upon 1t the enemy
will carry the elections next Fall
and attempt to remand the South
once more to the rule of General
Phil Sheridan. If the Republi-
cans elect the President they will
also elect the House, and, already
having the Senate, they can adopt
the Chandler Election bill or any
other measure they may think
etficacious to destroy the Demo
cratic vote OF the South. When
they begin again their conspiracy
against eur rights, and practice
once more the suppression and
oppression which covered eur land
with ruins from 1867 to 1874, it
is certain that violence will be re
sented with violence. In the face
of such a danger, 1t is our duty to
unite upon the Tariff bill"
Does the reader, let him be
Democrat or Republican recognise
the spirit of this paragraph. Does
it bear any resemblance to the
spirit of the Southern press previ-
GUS to the rebellion Of treason.
Then 1t was slavery, now it is. tar
if reform. And if not successful,
the Democrats from the boss bull
dozer Cleveland down to the last
relic of slave driver threatens
violence. Good, the country may
have to suffer another Bull Run,
but by the "Great horn spoon" If
the "Dampheels' don't have to
make another AppomattoX sur
render of it mex: November it will
simply be, because the American
people have concluded to submit
to the insoIenee OF half squelched
1 treason. However we have toe
much confidence in the honest
/ LOYALTY OF the men who wore the
'Gray' TO believe that they can be
driven into supporting the senile
yaporings OF bourbonism.

1t is intinated that if the Tariff
bill of the Ways and Means Com
mittee gets into the House, and
Chairman Mills undertakes the
Leadership" while it is under con-
sideration, scenes entirely unparal-
leled in the past will be enacted.
The egotism, inetiiciency, mental
weakness and excitable temper of
Mills will create innumerable dis
cred'table but ludicrous displays,
and the country will have a view OF
Democratic attempts at legislation
that will be enough alone to decide
the Presidential election.

How do matters stand now9
With secretary of the treasury
who is practically free trader, the
present surplus, instead OF being
devoted to paying the national
debt, is tarmed out among a few
national banks. The benefits of
this beautiful system are not reap
ed by the people and the surplus
continues to increase. And the
free trade tariff refQrmers continue
to claim that the way to reduce the
surplus is to increase it! 1t is q
great pity that some physician
could not be called in to give con-
gress few grains OF common
sense. Atlanta Constitution.
