Memorial Day. notwithstanding the cold
damp unfavorable weather, was generally
observed BY cur citizens. The Joseph
Woodruff Post, No. 281, G.. A. r., sixty
strong, besides the Sons of Veterans, headed
by the Marseilles Cornet Band, marched to
washington hall which was entirely filled.
The Post ceremonies took place there, and
an address was delivered by Judge Langley,
Of Champaign, ILL., Appropriate selections
were read and choice singing rendered by
our vocal talent. Post Commander G.. L.
Dawson, who has lately been sojourning in
the vicinity of Chattanooga, and revisiting
the battlefelds in and about that city,
presented to the G. A. R. organization a
gavel made from a limb of Georgia pine in
which is embedded Minnie ball, lodged
there during those memorable days Of civil
war. After exercises at the hall the Assem-.
bly, marched to the cemetery, where the
graves of deceased soldiers buried there
were decorated with flowers.
There are objections offered by some, that
on the programme of the day, too many
selections and side speeches are added
making the exercises too long by an hour or
80; also that no one should be allowed to
impose on large audience with a rehash of
some of our old threadbare local prohIbi-
tional harrangues as was the case in the
hall exercises that day. The committees of
arrangements hereafter will make a note of
this objection.

Our CHANDLER had o misfortune last
week which we desire to mention. 1t sp-
pears that he and lady were invited out to
party and in some manner misunderstood
the evening, and, therefore, was night or
two behind, but as luck would have it, a
frier kindly Informed him on the way after
his lady that the date was passed, and the
best thing for him to do was to go home and
say nothing about it or the young folks
would have the laugh on him. We hope
the reference in last weeks issue of the
.lovely ride" will not apply to the above
escapade of our "Rambler" Of South Free
dom.
On Wednesday evening OF last week Frank
Parr and family were aroused from their
slumber by young man who, it appears,
was in the same boat with Rambler in re-
gard to the evening of the party across the
way. The young man was quietly informed
that there was no Methodist hop there that
night, and with solemn look and long face
he made homeward retreat,

SOUTHERN POLITICS SHIFTING.
Protection Democrats and the White
Republican Protective Tariff League.

A telegram to the New York Herald from
Birmingham, Ala. April 49, says: Mr. Thomas
Seldom, president of the SlOss iron and steel
company, and other prominent manufacturers
who are protection democrats will join the
white republican protective tariff league A
gentleman who was prominent in the organiza-
ton of the league informed me to-day that Mr.
Seldom had notified the officers that he and a
number of friends would join the new move
ment and do all in their power to make it sue
cessful. Mr.. Seldom is reported to have said:
Il Will have no time 10 denote the good YOU
have undertaken, but if my name and nv
money viii be of service YOU are at liberty to
use my name and will give literally of my
means 10 carry on this movement" OF course
the members of the league are jubilant over
the announcement of Mr.. Seldom, and they all
feel confident that all protectOnists in this
section will join the movement
The opposition of certain republicans to the
new movement Is growing less aggressive and
several who opposed it at first have already
joined the league. DIR. A. H. Bird who was
one OF the committee appointed by the opposi-
ton to go to Washington, yesterday DECLINED to
go and has applied for membership in the
league. He states that he had been misin-
formed as to the objects of the league but
since he understood them fully he is in sympa-
thy with the movement. The membership of
the league has doubled since the meeting on
Wednesday and If Mr.. Seldom leads the pro-
! lection democrats into camp, the complete
success OF the new movement will, in the Opin-
ion of the leaders, be assured Sub-leagues
are TO be organized in every county in the state
as rapidly as possible. The leaders of the
movement in this city are of the opinion that
similar leagues will soor be organized in yir-
| glnla, Tennessee, and Georgia, and perhaps in
other southern states.

Mary Anderson's Heart i'm London.

Cable Correspondence New York Sun.
The irony of Mary Anderson's assertion that
she has come to dear London on account of its
climate is exquisite. Why any one should come
to London for health when there is room to
burrow in the soft and muggy oozinesssof a
misty Newark swamp is inexplicable That
part of London which is not reeking with the
spine-chilling sweat of perpetual black fog
wallows under perennial coat of black mud
Actors can scarcely be heard at the theaters on
account of the bone-racking coughing of audi
ences. while the noise of the sudden sAeeZe
rattes over the length and breadth of
the metropolis, that portion of London
which does not use torches to guide it about
the streets at midday, is lying i'll at home from
every ailment known to the most unruly and
distempered climate at this season of the year
to be found on earth. Miss Anderson. when l
saw her to-day, was radiant amid the general
gloom. She is stopping with the Baroness Won
Rugel. and has been receiving her English
friends all day. There are absolutely no signs
Of ill-health, mental or physical. to be detected
by casual visitor. Miss Anderson speaks
kindly of America, but her heart is evidently
here in London. London society has welcomed
her with open arms, whereas New York has
been taciturn. reluctant and reserved. Hence,
in the slang of the day, New York is not in the
movement as far as Miss Andersons affections
are concerned.
