How CarlvIe ReoeIved Him.

One of the most curious receptions OF
visitors was that which Carlyle gave
George Gilfillan. Gilfllan was quite a
literary character a generation ago His
books were widely read, and his Literary
Portraits" were especially popular with
the young ladies. | know of many girls
who slept with these volumes under their
pillows. Gilfllan was lecturer as well
as writer. He appreciated his popularity
and had a very good opinion Of George
Gilfllan. He called one day at Mr. Car
lyle's, and his knock was responded to by
Carlyle himself AS Carlyle opened the
door and stood before him, Gilfillan intro
duced himself with grandiloquent bow.
and said:
81 am George Gilfllan, and you are Mr..
Carlyle, suppose. | have been lecturing
about you all over England"
Carlyle looked at him half moment,
and then throwing back his shaggy name
blurted out, what the dickens did you
lecture about me for2" and slammed the
door in his face.-London Tit-Bits.

Stagnant Pools.

Citizens are complaining of stag
nant pools or ponds in different parts
of the city covered with green
scum. There is no doubt that such
pools breed disease-typhoid and
malaral fevers. We call the atten-
ton Of the Board of Health and city
authorities to the matter. The city
needs general cleaning up, and a
free application of lime or other dis
infectants. BY I'LL means let us pre-
serve health.

TWO WAYS.

Oh, how does the rain come DOWN
With rattle and riot and rushl
With futter and sputter,
And gurgle and mutter,
And chatter and spatter and gushl
With a mad outbursting and roaring,
With fzzing and splashing and pouring,
And noise to deafen a town,
The turbulent rain comes DOWN.
But after 'tiAover an hour or more
The world looks much as 1t did before,
And there's nothing to show for the fuss and
roar
The rain made coming down.
But how does the snow come DOWN
With touch like soft wings brushl
With CHANGING and gliding,
And stealing and sliding,
With wilderness and lghtness and hushl
With airy floating and swimming,
With fairy boating and skimmingl
And no one in all the town
Would know when the snow comes down
If he looked not out on the changed white day,
And the cushioned earth, that seems to say
How much can be done in n quiet way
The way the snow comes down.

Mr.. Blaine is said to be very much
irritated by the course of President
Harrison, going around laying claim
to the discovery of the reciprocity
idea in the Mckinley tariff. Mr..
Blaine is proud man, and this be-
ing the only redeeming feature of the
Republican administration, he don't
like to be ruthlessly robbed of the
production of his brain. 1t will be
remembered that Blaine's reciprocity
or free trade idea first caused some
trouble in camp and Harrison, Nc
Kinley and Reed were finally forced
to adopt it to get the bill through.
Mr.. Harrison, it seems, made enc
mics and lost votes at Portland, Ore
gon, by refusing to shake hands with
Aunt Mary Jones, an old colored
woman who had been honored with
a Misunderstanding by Presidents Grant,
Hayes, Garfield and Arthur, and
now Aunt Mary's husband and all
the colored people about Portland de-
clare that they will hereafter vote
the Democratic ticket.

The Appeal Avalanche claims that
Col. Patterson was the first MN TO
take a bold stand against the sub
treasury heresy. Col. Patters0n's in
terview was timely and more conSer-
vative and fOrcible in its reasoning
against the measure than anything
we have seen but if we remember
right, Washington, McMillin, Enloe

against it some time ago, and the
States Democrat claims that Frank
Bond Was first to take issue with
Rice Pierce, and would have defeated
Pierce had time permitted thor

believe that the States Democrat is
correct. Pierces popularity Waned
from the very day he announced
himself in favor of the measure.

tributed to his denomination. He
was disabled by fall in the midst Of
the campaign which excited sympa-

Democracy Must Organize.

The Obion Democrat thinks that
"the public men of this State should
be made to understand once and for
all that the sub-treasury question
must be met. Nothing but Il bold
stand on one side or the other will
suit the people. No traddling or
wabbling on the gudgeon will be al
lowed"
The Democrat is right.-Public
sentiment is greatly stirred up on this
question. The EXTREMIST Of the revo-
lutionists are active in their efforts
to crystalize the issue and ride into
Office on the popular wave, and the
people are waiting to hear both sides
of the question. In our opinion the
South was never threatened with
more serious danger than is now
presented in some of the wild, CEN
Trailing issues that are up. The
sub.treasury and kindred measures
are aimed to break the solid Demo
cratic South, and that is why the ur-
gent steps were taken ut Cincinnati
to organize the third party. n di-
vision of the Southern Democracy,
which is the balance of power in the
government, means Republican sue
cess in 1872, and Republican success.
means the force bill in its most radi,
cal form. The country needs bold,
courageous Democratic leaders like
Senator George TO take the stump.
Democracy must organize.

What good is the sub-treasury plan
or warehouse, going to do Knights
OF Labor or mechanics, who labored
80 hard at Cincinnati to organize the
new party, since mechanics are not
to be allowed TO store any Of their
products in the sub-treasury. There
must be some reason or motive. Are
mechanics going to quit business,
run for Office and turn spectators ?
They hardly think Of tilling the soil
for a living, and that makes the third
party move look funny.

The Tobacco Receipts.

In our tobacco report yesterday,
summing up the situation, the writer
committed an error in calculating
the per cent. of receipts by inadver-
tently adding the receipts and sales,
when it should have been made from
the receipts alone. For instance, the
receipts, amounting to II ,159 Hhds.,
being rs per cent. Of the crop in,
leaves % per cent. still in the cOun-
try, which will make the receipts for
the year from $1,000 to $4,000.
Whereas, with an average crop grown
last year, the receipts should be from
10000 to 35, 600 Hhds. Certainly the
receipts, with only % per cent. of the
crop out, shows the market in a
strong position and tobacco q very
safe investment.
