A study of her history will show that
from the beginning down to tins day her
every movement has been selfish one.
Now, when the southern states have coal
and iron in close propinquity Mt their doors
and Massachusetts has neither, she JOINS
the Democratic party and hugs Mr.. Cleve-
land TO get free coal, free ore, and mono
metallisin. But she will get none OF these
things from us. Virginia may, for the sake
of harmony. agree to some reduction OF
the duty on coal and iron ore. but she Will
no more agree to total repeal OF these
duties than she will to the continuance OF
monometallism.

Tho jon. Davis jury.
FAYETTEVILLE, n. @.
To ne Editor of the Dispatch:

4 o me LUEV VI "to Dtsp,ttSf'
Was the jury that was empanelled to sit
upon the case of Jefferson Davis the first
one ever drawn in the United States which
contained a negro, or was it the first one
drawn since the war containing one! +.
No jury was empanelled to try Mr.. DAVIS.
His trial was upon motion to quash the
indictment, which was tried by the court.
The court was divided in opinion and the
case would have gone, on a certificate OF
divided opinion, to the Supreme Court or
the United States but for the entry shortly
afterwards of q noLe proseq,n. This trial
was in term of the United States Court
at Richmond. to which juries are not sum-
moned.
As to whether q negro was then for the
first time summoned on jury there is no
doubt that negroes had previous to that
time sat upon iures IN the United States.

He lifted his head slowly.

forehead.

"Her babyl"
"Yes, Baby! This is hers. Her own

up, clasping both arms closely around

baby girl in his arms. Without word
he dropped his head over that of the
wandering child.
'And you knew it, Miss Dot?"

then, for her sake, would forgive Lucie.
Will you do so, Guardy?"

He kissed the child, gently replacing
her in Dots outstretched arms. And
her heart ached as she saw the panied,
worn expression on his face

II have nothing to forgive, little Miss
Dot, and her eyes frightened as the old
pet name fell on her ear.
She closed the door gently, throwing
one backward glance at him as he sat
with bowed head.
A few minutes later the door was
pushed open. He did not look up, think

feel her light hand laid on his head.
The silence oppressed him. He lifted his
head
''Lucie!" He sprang from the chair,

History OF the u. S. Flag.

Written for The Republican.
The idea of standards originated
with the Egyptians, at an early age.
The Crusaders added the cross to
their banners. The union of the
three crosses of st. George, st. An
drew and st. Patrick, marks. first
the union of England and Scotland
into the kingdom of Great Britain,
and then this kingdom with Ireland.
This IS termed the great union flag
of Great Britain, and was brought
by the colonists to America. When
the thirteen colonies began to feel
the pressure of British rule, they
placed upon their banners rattle
snake, cut in thirteen pieces, repre-
senting the thirteen colonies, with
the motto, "Join or die" When
these colonies became more united
in their purposes of resistance to
British tyranny, they placed upon
their flag a well formed rattlesnake
in the attitude of about to strike,
with the motto, "Don't tread on
