A GENTLEMAN
so Many Elements Necessary to His Make
Up that Definition is Difficult.
lGreenville News. I

) 1t is not the - thing in the
world to do to furnish definiti6n~efa q
gentleman; so many elements enter
into the meaning Of the term in its
fha-ast apprehension.
1t takes something inside to make a
gentleman, but it takes something OUT
side also. Along with the essential in
ternal qualities, principles, sentiments
and impulses, there must likewise be
numbered certain propriety and re-
flnement ofspeech and manner. Where
the spirit is wanting, the hollow out
side will seldom impose for any length
Of time on tolerably acute observer.
On the other hand man can not have
the true internal spirit without it
evincing itself outwardly. A person
may have the true spirit of a gentle
man, and also the manners of one in
degree to entitle him to the appelIation
and yet lack the delicate Difference,
nice tact, simple and. exquisite grace
and courtesy which stamp with all
inexplicable charm the thoroughbred
and perfect gentleman.
Nobility of soul, honor, the courage
to do right, respect for Gods image in
every human soul, delicacy, gentle
ness and kindness of spirit are essent-
ials in every gentleman's general make
up.
He is one who never takes credit
when he does not deserve it.
Neither gold can buy, nor wild horses
drag him from the path orright. The
scorn with which he repels all attempts
upon his honor, is sometimes called
pride, but it is very different from the
mere self-esteem and selt-importanee,
arrogance and superciliousness which
demand homage from all, seeking to
humble others. It is rather a feeling of
disdain and disgust at what is base, and
that erectness of spirit which must ac-
company the consciousness of merit.
Your real gentleman has respect for
everything respectable in others, and
whilst modest in speaking of himself,
he speaks frankly, freely, gladly in
praise Of others nobleness.
Respecting Gods creatures his i'm
pulses towards them are delicate and
considerate, prompting him to gentle
thoughts and kind judgment, and these
sentiments are manifested in speech,
tone and manner. So MANY people are
merely civil or polite out of regard for
what is due themselves. They lack the
true ring of gentility which will never
deliberately, wantonly, needlessly =
wound the feelings of Others, trampie
on their self-respect, or self-love, or in
any way discompose them, put them
out of eountenance, or make them i'll
at ease. This is what We call courtesy
the outward and visible manifesto
ton ofa gentle and kindly spirit, which
comes from and goes to the heart.
True courtesy is the perfect outward
form of the gentle and kindly splrlrz7>
the flower and aroma that springs from
those twin roots, and is one of the most
graceful and gracious, lovely and win
ming things that delights human eyes,
and charms human hearts.

| New York SUM-

Our esteemed cotemporary The St.
Louis Republic is now trying to head
ffthe German sentiment by advancing
the idea that if the Democratic nomi-
nation is to go south of the Middle
States the first man to receive it would
be the Hon. John G. Carlisle. Yet we
suppose that the Democracy OF Ne"
York State would vote for Gormal
with a rush that couldn't be melted by
auv other statesman now in sight.

clude the 10000 farmers belonging to
the Alliance. You did not put this
construction on my speech either
directly or by implication in your half
hours reply. You could not have
thought it amenable to such a construc-
ton.
In view Of this explanation and cor
rection I ask retraction Of that part
Of your editorial doing me injustice;
and publication Of this communica-
ton in the Cotton Plant, so that it may
reach those who have read your edito-
rials.
I note that you predicate your criti-
cism and conclusion on report OF my
speech in the News and Courier. This
report does not purport to be steno-
graphic report, nor does it, in its present
shape, admit Of the construction you
gave it; but the issue is between your
self and myself and would be obliged
if you would inform me what construc-
tion you placed upon it at that time IN
my presence, and in the presence OF
that large assemblage Of farmers, and
if you construed, as you appear to have
construed when penning that editorial,
in the quiet and deliberation Of your
sanctum, eight or ten days after the
event, why did you not then and there
reply to and rebuke me for these sin
famous charges" against 10000 farm
ers, whose especial champion you claim
to be?
The remaining part Of your editorial
is teeming with Misrepresentation
and perversions of what said and of
my attitude towards public questions.
Your statement that am not farmer
is untrue, and must have been made for
the purpose Of creating a false impress
sion and prejudice, but as the one
especially referred to above is the most
fragrant in its injustice I content my
/e"lf for the present with inviting your
attention to it with the accompanying
explanation and request.
Yours very respectfully,
&c. BUTLER.

CANNOT DOWN BUTLER.

An old farmer, who served his time
in the late war, said to ME yesterday
that the Alliance would not have such
a soft snap in downing Senator Butler
as it found in defeating Gen. Hamp-

$4,000 REWARD.
A Big Reward Offered tor Railroad
Wreckers.
Augusta Chronicle. !

augusta Chronicle.l
This is the kind Of reward that
catches criminal.
1t is very seldom, indeed, these days,
that reward of this large amount is
offered for the arrest and conviction of
a criminal, but this is the size of the
reward which the Richmond and DAN
vile road offers this morningin an ad-
vertisement published all over the
country for the arrest and conviction
of the person or persons who wrecked
the train on the Western North Caro-
lima road, which resulted in the death
Of so many persons.
The advertisement reads as follows:
The Richmond and Danville road
will pay $40, 900 for the arrest and con-
viction Of the person or persons who
removed The rail from the track of the
Western North Carolina railroad, near
Bostian's bridge, IredeIl county, n. c.,
on the night of Wednesday, Aug. 26,
1891. w. H. GREEN,
General Manager.
Every one is familiar with the story
of this horrible catastrophe, in which
twenty-four persons lost their lives and
as many more were badly injured.
A thorough investigation was made
into the cause of the accident by the
coroner's jury, aud it was found that a
number of feet of the track had been
removed, which caused the train to
take its fearful plunge into the ravine,
sixty-tive feet below.
This reward will 10 doubt brinc the
finest detectives to work on the case,
and the guilty parties will probably lie
arrested.
