A MoNIAN,s Hate.

Now and then mankind is startled by
getting an insight into the depths to
which a woman's hate and malice can 20.
There seems TO be no bottom to it.
Mrs. MACKAY, the wife Of the great
Pacific coast millionaire, is victim OF
it.. and her experience is one Of those
occasional Illustrations, which cause
men to regard the gentler sex with won
der and awe-as inexplicable beings.
Mrs. MACKAY is very estimae,s

wake OF her triumph, the story has FOL
lowed her that in early life she was a
washerwoman in California 30 per
sistently is the story circulated wherever
Mrs. MAcKAY is, that her husband has
finally lost his temper and now offers a
reward for the name Of any person
using his wife's name in slanderous or
hbelous connection.
IN the washerwoman story were true
Mrs. MACKAY would have no cause Tor
complaint and her good sense and tact
would enable her TO meet and overcome

Mrs. MACKAY is the daughter OF Col
d. E. HUNGERFoRD, Of New York, once
a surgeon in the regular army, and dis
tinguished veteran Of the Mexican war
She received an education suitable TO her
station. Her first husband was Dr.
BnyANr. OF Brooklyn. These in BRIEF

she is constantly annoyed by being adj
vertised ali over Europe As a low
IGNORANT washerwoman, who through a
trick or accident succeeded in becoming
the wife Of millionaire. No one VIII

WHAT THE FORCE BILL MEANS.

Elsewhere in this impression will be
found thorough digest Of the Federal
Elections bill.
The REGISTER asks its every reader
to give il attention.
A glance at the article alone Is Suih-
cient to cause every American citizen
who has any knowledge Of what free
government is, OF any love for IT, or has
any spark Of patriotism in his bosom, to
read it through to the end with indigna-
tion. and the profoundeSt disgust for
the trainers and supporters Of that
measure. Language scarcely furnishes
words strong enough to hurl at this
damnable conspiracy and outrage.
We know what QUAY iS-that there
is no species Of corruption he will not
practice. We know what REED is-that
there is nothing too bold and outrageous
for him to attempt. This Federal Elec-
ton bin aires them both scope torthe t''lI-
est exercise Of their utmost pOlrcrS.
What more can be said Of IL?
But wait; as will be seen from the
synopsis Of it We give, it does not apply
alone to Congressional elections; It 'r"'
also control state elections.
The bold scoundrelS who have draiteu
this bin have taken precaution to make
it as thoroughly effective as it could be
made. The officials appointed by QUAY
and REED are to hold for l1c. 80, that
no matter which party may win the
next election. or control the next adj
ministration, il will be impossible to de-
pose QUAY's henchmen, who will hold
the Offices Of Supervisors OF Election
till their death, or resignation.
II would require more than every
inch Of space in this mornings REGIS
TER to expose to the full the Infamous
character Of this Federal Elections bill
in ANYTHING like detail.

THE WEST VIRGINIA ROBBERY COM
PLETE


The Republican Committee on Flee
tions yesterday reported its decision in
the ALDERsoN-McGINNIs case and, Of
course, it was that the Democrat should
be unseated and the Republican given
the seat.
This is plain, bold robbery and moth
ing else II completes the piratlcal pro-
gramme so far as West Virginia is CON
cerned,
Tho proof furnished by Mr.. ALDER
son that he was legally elected is incon-
trovertible aud positive. But what care
QUAY's and REEDS SlayiSh aud CON
scienceleSs tools for that, After the
sins against the people they have al
ready committed, one more or less mat
tiers but little. The thief has been I'M
masked and brought to bay and there is
nothing left but to boldly fight it out on
that line, casting all pretensionS TO the
winds and relying on simple violence
and further robberies to make his posi-
tiou good.
In our telegraphic dispatches brief
histor Of the case is presented. None
Of the facts therein can be denied
for they are matters Of legal
record There is more OF GER
tainty that JONI d. ANDERSON received
the majority OF the legal votes cast in
the Third West Virginia district than
that REED, himself was the choice Of
the honest voters of his district. The
Republicans know this. and their long
delay shows that the robbery was diff
cult one, and could only De done by
actual violence and openly. Besides,
there was the necessity Of ''vindi-
eating" GoFF. A confession that Al
DERsoS was the legally elected candi-
date for Congress, would have involved
the confession Of the other truth that
GoFF was not elected Governor Of West
Virginia, and the Republicans have de-
clared all along that he was.
II Mr.. ALDERSoN desires a renOmina-
ton. and We have no doubt he does, he
should be granted it unanimously, and
the Third district given a chance 70
vindicate itself and express It's opinion
"a hhr sr0unGrelism that has robbed it
Of its right Of representation in Con-
greSS.

other day when they planted tree at
his school. The little girl does not go

remarkable performance of her brother

as barbarlsm the south, Of course.
in this particular, would be ahead Of
the north.
General BRINKERHoFF says that be
has known the southern people quite
Intimately before and since the war, and
they have impressed him as a noble
race. People who could fight for an
idea as they did, although it was a
wrong idea, have the stun in them out
Of which regnant nations are made. In
conclusion the general says:
We Of the north ought 10 be far enough
away from the passions Of the great strug-
gle 10 be able 10 appreciate the splendid
virtues Of the southern people, and be fairly
charitable TO their failings, which, TO say
the least, are not more numerous than our
own. Nowhere else in history has a mas
ter class dealt so generously with its lber-
ated slaves Take for comparison Brazil,
or even Russia, where the serfS We're white
instead of black. and il must be cold
heart that does not glow with admiration
az the superiority Of our southern brethren.
In short / am glad TO believe that the
southern white people are as brave, as
patriotic, as generous, and as Christian as
any people upon the earth. They are
worthy Of our confidence, and in the sOlu-
ton Of the negro problem, which hangs
Ike pail over the nation, we ought TO
meet them as brethren. II that question
is 70 be settled satisfactorily, they must
settle Il in the main; for all we can do, after
we have done our best, is simply 10 assist.
We can cooperate, and we ought 10 do so
70 the extent Of our ability; but beyond
that we ought not 20 20, and cannot so 10
any advantage.
This tribute from nOrthcrner who
fought us TO the death, " says the Allan
Ia Constitution speaks for itself Par
tisan malice will not be able to answer
IT, But General BRINRERHoFF is not
the only Northern man Of position and
influence who holds these views. All
over the North there are thousands upon
thousands Of intelligent, fair-minded
people who will endorse his opinions.
In the course Of time these patriotic
Americans will make themselves heard
and felt. They will make our course
their own, and Join hands with US In
securing for the Southern States the full
measure Of their rights in the Union. "

J. G. Aver & Co.,
A Curious Custom!

There is an old ceremoney in Iceland
of showing civiIties to strangers pre-
valent in the remote rural districts It
is that the ladies of the house shall pull
of the trousers of the fatigued and dis
consulate travellers. The theory is that,
as the rain may be expected to be al
ways falling, the trousers must be wet
at bedtime, and as the regular days
pony ride is about 40 miles the advent
urer from other lands should be exceed
lngly weary, and in need CT gentle en-
couragement and assistance. 1t is
thought, therefore, that it is nothing
but an act of politeness and true con-
Germ for the welfare of the traveller that
the most agreeable person in the house
shall undress his legs, l may add that
there is not among the IcelanGers who
perform this solemn rite the remotest
suspicion that there is any indelicacy
III the performance. 1t is related of
the most pious and famous missionary
who ever visited the island, Hender-
son, who distributed bibles throughout
the island fifty years ago, that this bus
mess of pulling off his trousers was Il
sad embarrassment to him, and some
what prevented the development of his
vital piety. He could not refuse to ac-
cept the hospitality of the good people
among whom he distributed the good
book, for which they were greatful in
the extreme, and he finally managed IA
compromise and systematized it. He
insisted upon first rolling himself in
blanket and then upon embarrassing
himself as to suspenders and waist
band, and then, and not until then,
he allowed the ladies to seize the Of
Tending garment by the straps (Which
he uniformly wore to keep his trousers
legs down when riding) and pull them
off. SO while they took the trousers in
triumph he spared his modesty all the
rudeness of the terrible shocks that
would otherwise have been inflicted.
This philosophical and ingenious min
lister published n large volume about
his troubles in Iceland. and the story
he tells about his trouble with his trouS-
ers is very droll, and in fact is quite
pathetic profusely garnished with pious
reflections Ledger.
