that there was d crowd waiting on the
sidewalk TO catch a glimpse of her face,
and no one paid any particular attention
to the haggard young man in evening
dress among them until he suddenly
pushed forward and attempted to lay a
OBTAINING hand On the young lady,s arm.
She did not notice the movement be-
cause, quick as he was, there was another
quicker, and before he could touch her
a big. well dressed man stepped quickly
forward. and with no gentle hand
dragged Henshall back into the crowd,

1t Is the nature of q man to pursue.
He regards he whole world as a hunt
ing ground, and anything that pleases
bis fancy, whether it be a bird pretty
woman or a brute, as his lawful prey.
He may not care for the game or
know why he pursues it, but the chase
is irresistible, and, like the child with
the butterfly, he will spoil his pretty
clothes, stub his toe and get his feet wet
running through brambles and paddles
as long as the winged thing is in sight.
If woman only knew it she could WIN
her lover by eluding him, for man ever
wants what he can't get easily, and
prizes most the fruit that hangs highest.
To him 10 beauty is so enhancing as
that which smiles and bushes beneath
the mystic web Of a gauzed veil, and
doubly lovely is the loveliness that turns
and flies at his approach.
Henshall knew neither rest nor peace
of mind. The throbbing, sobbjng note,
of Edna's violin were as sweet to him as
the music Of the rolling spheres to the
old philo1ophcr.
He had eyes for nothing but the soft
browns of her hair, lashes, complexion
and dress. He thought OF her through
the day and dreamed Of her in the night,
and cou-i they have been vocalized ev-
cry sigh would have uttered, II will

There was not any too much nectar in

HenshalTs s sensibilities. Instead If put,

A correspondent of the Whining
ton Messenger, speaking of Senator
Ransom's speech, at Beaufort, says
His plea for the great Senator
Vance was strikingly unselfsh and
touchingly sincere. Though Sena-
tor of the United States himself, he
told the people that no greater ca
lamity could befall North Care lima
or the Nation, than the defeat of his
illustrious colleague, who, if he had
any fault, was in sometimes espous-
ing the cause of the people more
hastily than the judgment of his
calmer moments would sustain. The
name of Vance was invariably greet
ed with an applause. The reflex ef
feet of which was to inspire Ransom
to say more Of Vance's thorough
ness rs a statesman; and more fer
yently to urge the election of legis-
latoIs, who, III returning Vance to
the Senate would token the graft
tude of the people and further dis
linguish The iIlustrious annals of our
State. God speed his unse.fsh mis-
sion to save the State and re elect
Vance.

ACTION OF THE PARDON BOARD

The State Board of Pardons yesterday
assumed the stern duty of refusing the
commutation of the sentences of Smith
in this county, and of the Nicely. broth
ers in Somerset. The refusal of
a communication for Smith looks like
severity, more by comparison than by
the actual circumstances of the case. Con-
sidering the wanton murderers who have
gone UNPUBLISHED or got off with terms of
imprisonment, it hardly seems creditable
that all appeals for mitigation on behalf of
a criminal who had such provocation as this
obscure negro had, should be in vain. On
the other hand the action in the case of the
Somerset murderers is eminently proper. If
such murders, committed in the commission
of robbery, are not punished with exemplary
severity there can be no safety to life or
property. Their crime was wanton one,
and it is necessary that it should be fol-
lowed by the extreme penalty of the law.

REED AND THE BANQUET.

ELMIRA advertiser: Speaker Reeds speech
in Pttsburg attracts much attention in WASH
ington. His demand for right and justice to
colored voters Of the South stirs up the old
Bourbons not little.
SAVANNAH NeUS: Speaker Reed is re-
ported to have said when some one asked him
if he would accept the nomination for the
Presidency: "They might do better. and
think they will" Truly. there must be an ex-
ceedingly level spot in that mans head some
where.
NASHVILLE american: Mr.. Reed is con-
sidered in many respects an original man. But
the speech he delivered before the Americus
Club Saturday night was thoroughly devoid OF
originality 1t was as chestnutty as if it had
come from out the mouth of a Harrison or
William E. Chandler. 1t was the same old
bloody shirt without one single new wrinkle
and without one single unknown faunt. He is
out for the Republican Presidential nomina-
tion, and in platitudinous prosaIc but himself
on record as a maigner of the South. Only
that and nothing more.
PROVIDENCE Telegram: The meeting of
the Republican leaders at Pittsburg on the
18th instant was an em1nently successful affair.
The men who are truly representative of
leadership were present, and by their decided
utterances made their presence felt. Speaker
Reed, the new and latest idol of his party, who
has not always been among those who waved
the "bloody Shirt" dragged it out from its
hiding place and made it the standard of the
new crusade against the South. A Federal
election law or nothing was his demand, and
Federal election law it is likely to be under his
mastertul sway in and out of Congress.

A MODEST PENSION REoUEsr

The Manned Soldiers League is about to
present petition to Congress asking for an
increase Of the allowances under the pension
laws for soldiers, who were crippled by
wounds during the war, to the extent of either
total or partial disability. The modesty OF
the request will be seen from the fact that
an increase to 500 per month is asked for
those who are totally disabled; and to $50
and S55 per month for those partially
crippled BY the loss of legs or arms. The
number of pensions affected is less than
$685. and the increased cost will be s, ,3oO,-
900. When Congress is dealing out PEN
sions by the tens oil millions to soldiers who
are not disabled, such request on the
part of those who were seriously mained in
the war for the Union, ought to meet with
quick and favorable response.

WANT OF PITTsBURG.

Concerning that matter of alleged South
ern BeSsemer pig iron the Chicago Times
shifts its ground somewhat as follows:
THE PIrrsBURG DISPATCH insists that Bes-
semer steel can nos be made out of Southern
iron shipped to that CITY, Well, the Times
doesn't dispute the assertion. 1t has been
gently limited, however, that Mr.. Carnegie
didn't try very hard to make steel out OF the
Southern iron shipped to him, and that he had
a motive of his own for making the public be-
leve that no Bessemer iron could be produced
from Southern ores.
The esteemed Times fails to perceive the
full force of our argument, which is that,
even if Mr.. Carnegie or any other manu-
facturer in Pittsburg were disposed to be so
absurd as to reject the opportunity to work
up raw material in his mills, which repre-
sented an immense saving of cost, he could
not afford to. To illustrate the matter by a
subject within the Times province let us
take hogs. Mr.. Armour and other million
aires of Chicago are using hogs as raw ma
terial at cost of 81 90 per cwt. Now, if
anv section were able to sell hogs of the
same grade to Mr.. Armour at 81 90 per cwt.
could he afford to refuse to use them? II
he did some one else would buy the cheap
hogs and Mr.. Armour would be relegated
to back seat in the competition of pork
packing.
Now the facts are exactly the same with
regard 10 cheap Bessemer pig. Mr.. Carnegie
and Pittsburg are consumers Of Bessemer
pig. To cheaper that article means to ex-
tend their markets. If the South can send
us real Bessemer pig at IS so per ton with
the cost of freight making its price here S11
or S12, Pittsburg wants all the Bessemer pig
that the South can produce. When it can
be laid down here at that figure our city will
sell steel to South America, China and Aus
tralia.
The South can make foundry iron at re-
markably low prices; but the Bessemer pig
which is wanted here does not come up to
requirements. AS to Mr.. Carnegie, we can
assure theesteemed Times that he is not such
a fool as to let other steel manufacturers buy
Bessemer pig cheaper than he does.

PROMPT WORK NEEDED.

The affairs o. the Scotch-Irish Convention
are shown by a local item to have reached a
crisis which threatens to be extremely gall
ing to our local pride. The next day or two
is to decide whether the attempt to hold
convention here will be discreditable fasco
or not.
Briefly stated, the trouble is in the failure
to raise funds to defray the expenses of the
gathering. The expressions reported else
where charge the entire absence of funds to
the inaction of the Finance Committee.
However that NAV be, it is evidently not
the most pressing duty to fix response
bility for the past deliuquencies, but to
make the most effective efforts toward max
ing the talk good. We have no doubt that
the leading and prosperous element of our
citizenship, which will be represented in
this convention, will, when the urgency OF
the case is understood, be prompt and lib
eral in coming to the rescue.
Certainly no effort should be spared to
prevent the humiliation of failure tn do all
on Pittsburg's part that is required to make
the convention a success.
