originated by Smith being insuted by a

was knocked down and the cOlored men IN

parties met again several shots were ex-
changed, tue negroes, some ten or dozen,

A Glance over the Next Senate.

Sixteen Senators have been re-
elected, which secures the philoso-
phic beauty of Senator Hoar's face,
the rugged Scotch force of Senator
Beck's grizzled countenance, the fine
profile of Senator Colquitt, the knight
ly features of Senator Ransom and
the fine Puritan facial type represent
ed by SenatorChase. The Lincoln-like
Collum, the manly Plumb, the court
ly Harris, the statuesque Dolph, the
classic Morgan, the Rembrandtian
Manderson, all remain. OF the new
Some are noted for their good looks.
Mr.. Wolcott, of Colorado, besides
youth, has beauty in his favor. Mr..
Mcmillan, of Michigan, is in the
prime of life, but is often taken to be
a much younger man than he is and
is always regarded as a handsome
man. The veteran Barbour, of Vir-
ginia, will bring snowy locks and the
face of age into the next Senate, but
it is a countenance of classic symme-
try and dignity. Mr.. White, the new
Senator from Louisiana, is younger
than the average Senator, and has
fine, clean-cut face. Mr.. Higgins,
the Delaware acquisition, is a hand
some man. He and Senators White
and Wolcott are bachelors, which
makes their good looks matter of
more than Senatorial concern. =

The Vermont Monument at
Gettysburg.

The Subcommittee of Vermont
held an important meeting last week.
The committee contracted for the
bronze statue of Gen. George J. Stan
nard, which is to surmount the State
monument to be erected on the
Gettysburg battle field, and also
adopted the forms Of the inscriptions
to be placed on the State monument.
The contract for the Stannard statue
was let to Karl Gerhardt of Hartford,
about $4,000, and it is to be complet-
ed and erected by July 81 next. The
sculptor, Mr.. Gerhardt, who is ma
tive of Boston, designed the statue of
Nathan Hale at Hartford, the eques-
trian statue of Israel Putnam at
Brooklyn, Ct, the statue of Josiah
Bartlett at Amesbury, Mass, and the
statue of Gen. Warren, which stands
on Little Round Top at Gettysburg.
The Vermont monument is of gran
ite, and is now being built by Carrick
Bros. of st. Johnsbury. The west
face of the die contains the state arms,
below which is the inscription, ever
mont, in honor of her sons who
fought on this field" The other faces
give the names of the Vermont regi-
ments engaged in the battle.

him to be a radical, and yet thous-
ands support him. The radicals
charge that he is too conservative,
and yet they give him their votes.
AS minister of war Boulanger in
stituted many reformes in the French
army. He gave the soldiers more
comfortable beds in their barracks,
abolished the rule requiring them to
shave off their boards, and did away
with sundry drills and parades. He
was energetic, enterprising and hon
est. The chances are that, restored
to power, he would still be loyal to
the republic, and would infuse his
energy and ambition into the entire
administration In all this there is
noting for the republic to fear. 1t
seems improbable that Boulanger will
play the dictator when he knows that
the end would be, in all human prob
ability, his overthrow by counter rev.
olution or assassination.

The disclosure of the famous Muir
Gibson letter is of little public impor-
tance beyond the fact which seems to
be established that the device for
drawing out Lord Sackville was Mr..
Osgoodbys own private conception.
The Democrts and mugwumps, in
the howl raised by them over the af-
fair, laid the ''fraud" upon the Repub-
lican national committee, and through
them at the door of the Republican
party. But the Republican committee
had nothing to do with it. The writ
er of the letter, who, it appears, is
a quiet and substantial citizen of En-
glish parentage, says that his object
was "to ascertain through the agency
of an unofficial letter, direct from the
British minister, the real attitude of
the British government toward the
two great political parties in the
United States" He consulted no
one but his wife till he received Lord
Sackville's reply. That proved to be
too good to be kept secret, and it
was soon in print without the knowl-
edge or assistance of any one having
any official connection with the Rep
lican party.

Assassination.

The startling news comes from Ar
|hnsas that Hon. John NJ. Clayton,
he Republican candidate for Con-
ress in the Second Congressional
|istrict, has been assassinated. Mr..
layton was a candidate against Hon.
r. Breckenridge, a member of the
resent Congress. The latter receiv-
d the certificate, but Clayton pro-
|osed to contest the seat, urging
ross frauds.
A short but terrible method has
cen taken to get rid of the Republi-
|hn candidate. 1t seems incredible
lat Brec kinridge should be a party
b it, but there can be no doubt that
bme political friend is the author of
ne crime. Getting rid of an oppon-
|nt by assassination is something
ew in American politics, but after
lis anything may be expected from
he South. The murderd man is a
'rother of Gen. Powell Clayton, a
'ery prominent Republican in Arkan-

Harrison and the South.

What the South wants is an adj
ministration that will forget the
''southern question" as such-an adj
ministration that will use all the pow
er of the government to protect every
citizen in every southern state in his
political rights, regardless of color or
politics, or the fact that he is a res
ident of the southern section of the
Union. And this should be done un-
der laws which affect equally every
state of the Union.
Any cool and candid observer will
to-day admit that course which viii
provoke bitter resistance by southern
Democrats to national legislation can
only result in injury to the southern
Republicans. In the event of assass-
ination and outrage the negroes take
the brunt, while majority of the
men who are now full of wisdom
about the South take to the bushes.
Virginia, West Virginia, North
Carolina and Tennessee are the only
southern states that can be won from
Democracy, and the victory will never
come on the account of the distribu-
tion of federal patronage. These
states are not in the s'black belt,'
and there can be no such wholesale
suppression of votes in them as in the
other southern states.
Most of the men who are now poD-
ping up in the southern states as the
leaders and advisers are Republican
more or less because they believe
principally in offices and appropria-
tions. IL is astonishing how hard
they think they have worked for
the party and what great sacrifices
they imagine they have made. 1t is
marvellous that the average hard-fist-
ed and stiff-necked Republican voter
heard of very few of these statesmen
from the time Cleveland went in un-
Til Harrison was elected.
More railroads, more cotton fact
Ories, more coal and iron mines, more
money and more business-that is
what we need to bring a fair count
and make every man in the South
think this great republic is good
enough for him and that it and all
its laws must and shall be preserved
and obeyed.- State, N. C..
