Mr.. Lodge, who has robbed Mr.. Rowell
of the iniamy belonging to the author OF the
Force bill, says; at does not become the
United States, holding high place in the
forefront of nations, to stand like highway
robber besides the pathway of civilization
and rob the foreign author Of his property
with one hand, while it depriyes the Ameri-
can author of his rights with the other"
But this same iudentical Mr.. Lodge thinks
it does become the United States, holding
high place in the forefront of nations, to
stand like a highway robber beside the path
way of civilization and rob the many poor
people of his own country by a high tax
on the necessaries Of life, in order to increase
the profits of the few rich mine and factory
owners, who supply the money with which
the Presidency is bought by the Republi-
cans. Mr. Lodge has high place in the
forefront Of a certain class of people, but
that class is not composed Of unsectional,
wise and patriotic statesmen.

Hon. Geo. Wesley Atkinson does not want
to go back to Congress bad enough to sub
nit his chances again to the voters Of the
First district. He knows well enough that
his occupancy per force of arbitrary, parti-
san rule, of the seat belonging to Hon. Jno.
0. Pendleton, will be pretty severely rebuk-
ed by The voters of the First district. And
Hon. c. B. Smith, of the Fourth district,
feels the same way. And Fud McGinnis
and his mule haven't been seated yet, so be
isn't in a condition to feel the depth of un-
easiness the Others have experienced in Oc-
cupying seats not belonging to them. How
ever, it is more than probable that the Re
publicans of the Fourth district will not
risk their chances of success with him, but
will look for something more available. In
any event Jno. Anderson will be triumphant

To-day the State Democratic Convention
will be held at Grafton for the nomination
of candidate for Judge Of the Supreme
Court Of Appeals. Though the names of a
number of gentlemen worthy Of the honor
may be presented, We think it altogether
probable, and proper, too, that Judge Lucas
will receive the nomination and better still
than the endorsement Of any man will be
the harmony that will prevail and presage
victory in November.

lean law, with which Gen Gof protected
American industries couple of years ago,
was not the Generals own invention, but
was borrowed from Wendell Phillips who
probably used it for an entirely different
purpose. As retailers of second hand goods
our republican statesmen defy competition.

Leaving out the hate that the northern Re-
publicans entertain for the people of the
South, the tariff Is the chief subject Of diff
ference between the Democrats and the Re
publicans. The negroes, to man, vote the
Republican ticket. But if they had sense
enough to look after their own personal, in
diyidual interests, they would necessarily
vote with the Democrats; for they are poor,
and not one Of the industries in which they
are employed is protected by the tariff. The
tariff forces them to pay double price for al
most everything they have to buy, while it
does not enhance the value of anything they
have to sell, or increase, TO the extent of a
single cent, the rate of their days wages.

and the like. Jack pays the full price
of the genuine article, but is supplied
with a villianous compound of native
connection. The dealer knows the
value of brands. He lays in stock
OF the genuine bottles, and never dis
turbs labels or capsules. BY the skill
full application of the blowpipe he
drills a small hole in the bottom of
the bottle, draws off all the genuine
liquid, replaces it with his poisonous
stuff, closes up the hole so that no
trace remains, and palms off the bot,
tie on unsuspecting Jack as real
"Martell" or "nne old Irish" The
distracted liquor will, of course, sell
on its own merits elsewhere.
Another ingenious device of the
mild Hindu is to drill a hole into the
thickness Of a rupee, and then, with
infinite labor and skill, to scrape out
the silver from the inside, leaving
only sort of shell, without damag>
ing the impression or the rim. Lead
is then poured gently in, mixed with
some alloy which gives the requisite
ring, and the hole is carefully closed.
Only a very keen and experienced
eye can detect the imposture. The
silver which is thus extracted will be
worth less than a shilling, and the
manipulation has still his rupee to
spend. But the operation may occu-
Ply him the greater portion of a week,
during which time he might have
earned two rupees by honest work
In fact, it may be said that if all the
ingenuity and talent which are APP
piled to swindles were directed to le-
gitimate ends, the rewards would be
both greater and more continuous
than in the precarious and hazardous
harvests of fraud. Leaving out of
sight the moral question, it is indis>
putably the fact that honest labor
pays best.
