SERVED EN- RIGHT.

Pittsburgh Telegraph.
The citizens of Luverne, Ala, who
boycotted the colored postmaster, have
run against large-sized snag in the
shape of Mr. Wanamaker.
When Mr.. Gomez, a negro, was ap-
pointed to take charge of their office,
the chivalry of Luverne held meeting,
and Indignantly declared that their SUI
periority in the race line would not per-
NIT them to receive mail handed out by
''nigger."
Their fields are cultivated by colored
men; their food is cooked and served by
negroes, their household work is carried
on by African "help," but when their
letters are to be handled by a colored
Republican, they emphatically object.
Mr.. Gomez found it difficult to begin
business as Postmaster, as no one would
rent him suitable Office. He found an
unoeeupied building at length, however,
and was preparing to open his Office
when the chiYalrous whites burned it
down.
The Postmaster General, having been
made acquainted with these facts, de-
cided that the Luvernians are not sufi-
ciently civilized to appreciate postal
facilities, and he has therefore ordered
the office closed

OUR neighbor, the Gazette, is anxious
for comparisons. Suppose it compares
the cost to the people of administering
the various County offices in Belmont
county under Republican and Demo
cratic rule notably that of Probate Judge.
Any candid man who has had business
in that Office during the past four years
will bear out the statement that the
costs for the same work is at least 25
per cent less than when the Office was
last filled by Democrat.
Isn't it fact, Mr.. Gazette, that under
Democratic management outrageous
and unconscionable fees were charged
in the Probate Office, and that people
were threatened with suit to compel
them to pay, but care was taken never
to bring suit. People who recall the
Democratic deficiencies of eighteen years
ago, can compare with profit the tenden-
cy of the Democratic office-holders of
to-day with those of that period, and
say if it is not about time to muster the
party out from the management of To-
cal affairs.

Now that Wilkie Collins is gone, all
sorts of strange stories are current about
his life, and the innermost secrets of the
novelist who sought, above all things, to
shield himself and his home from the
gaze and Comment of his fellow-men
are the topic of the hour Edmund
Yates set the ball rolling in signed ar
ticle in his paper, the London World,
in which he said: at was during the
progress of the "Moonstone," / believe,
that Wilkie Collins first acquired the
baleful habit of taking sedatives which
he continued more or less throughout
his life. Excited beyond measure by
the constant nerve pressure created by
the necessity of having every thread of
his story constantly within his grasp;
suffering under sharp attack of rheu
matte gout in the eyes; distracted at the
same time by the serious illness of his
mother, to whom he was devotedly at
tached. Wilkie Collins did as Coleridge,
DeQuincey and no end of other eminent
in the fratertiny had done before him
he sought and found relief in anodynes.
He was in the habit of taking daily, and
without apparently serious noxious eff
feet, more laudanum than would have
sufficed to kill an entire ships crew or a
whole company of soldiers.

CIVIL SERVICE REFORM.

Cincinnati Commercial Gazette.
Apparently unconscious that the peo-
pie at large care nothing about what he
has to say of civil service reform, Mr..
Geo. VIM. Curtis goes on talking about
the subject, and reels off his effusive
elegance in the same old style. The
trouble with Mr.. Curtis is that he, with
few and feeble protests, stood by the
Cleveland civil service fraud, and dis
credited the whole business.
If Cleveland was civil service re-
former we want no more of it. AS soon
as he knew enough to walk alone as
President he removed Republicans as
rapidly as he could in the intervals of
writing his sneering pension veto mes
sages. Still Mr.. Curtis goes on with his
eloquence, forgetful that his mouthings
since his Cleveland experience are but
mockery; and he even ventures to offer
his objections to President Harrison's
Administration. Happily he does not
approve of the Administration of Pres
ident Harrison.

price of the boxes being $25 each, al
though costing only $40, or less, to man.

a good thing, whatever may be thought
of the price, and we state Mr.. Campbell's
connection with the bill merely to ex-
pose the fraudulency of his claim to be
a home ruler. 1t is well to say, also,

OLD THINGS AND DEAR.
Translated from the German.l

There is no song like an old song
That we have not heard for years;
Each simple note appears to thrOng
With shapes that swim in tears.
1t may have been a cheerful strain,
But twas so long ago
That glee, grown old, has turned to pain,
And mirth has turned to woe.
There is no friend like an old friend,
Whose life-path mates our own,
Whose dawn and noon, whose eve and end
Have known what We have known.
1t may be when we read his face
We note trace of care;
'Tis well that friends in life's last grace
Share sighs as smiles they share.
There is no love like an old love,
A lost, may be, or dead.
Whose place, since she has gone above,
No other fills instead
1t is not we Il ne'er love anew,
For life were drear if so,
But that first love has roots that grew
Where others cannot grow,
There is no days like old days,
When we, not they, were young;
When all life's rays were golden rays,
And wrong had never stung.
Dear Heart! if now our steps could pass
Through paths of ehildhood's morn,
And the dew of youth lie on the grass
Which Times fell scythe has shOrn!
Old song, old friend. old love, old days;
Old things, yet never old;
A stream that s dark till sunshine plays
And changes it to gold;
Through all winds memory's river on,
Mid banks of sore regret,
But gleam s on the peaks of long agone
That softens sadness yet.
