and John Chesney were principals. After
hearing the testimony OF both gentlemen
the Judge said 81 don't know of any
two men between whom it would give me
greater pain to decide a difficulty, The
first time l saw General Cake was when he
was taking his regiment TO the front. His
was one of the first bodies Of men to land
at Washington in defense of the Nations
capitol, l regard him as one OF the best
men of our country. l also know Nc.
Chesney and don't believe he would hurt Il
fly. He does some fighting but it is always
with his mouth. But General Cake s
testified to a threat made and therefore
have concluded to put the costs on defend

TExAs Farm and Ranch is not
squealing over the poverty stricken
condition of the agricultural classes
as the tribe of alliance howlers does
1t rejoices in the prosperity of the
farming classes and draws compari,
sons to their credit without any dis
count. Farm and Ranch says:
ANY farmer who will give his bus.
mess as much study for as many days
in the week as the merchant gives to
his business, and v i'll be as method.
cal, industrious and enterpris-
ing, will never have to make
al assignment tfor the benefit of his
creditors. When a Texas farmer
fails, aud his creditors take his cotton
and horses and his dry cattle, no goes
to work little earlier the next sea-
son, works little harder and prac-
tees a little better farm economy,
and his last end is as good as his first.
When the merchant fails his credit
ors attach his bank account, gar
nishee his creditors, and jump on his
PROSTATE form with both feet, and all
that is left of him is an indistin ct
recollection that he once existed.

THE advices received from Wash

interstate commissionership. He de.
clined the honor when rendered him
some months ago, and since congress

recon liberation of that declination,
but there is no intlmation that the
president has a second time offered
him the place. Certain it is that Cul,
berson's name did not appear among
the names sent to senate fol-
confirmation, and the Texan is
not candidate for the place.

Distinctions About Liars,

"Do you mean to tell me Pm liar?''
is the form generally used in certain
classes of societyin protesting against
incredulity. Occasionally ii is an
awkward question to answer. If q
man tells you-the story has often
been told by protested eye witnesses
that he has seen Mr.. Spurgeon
crawl laboriously up his pulpit stairs,
to show how steep and thorney was
the road to heaven, and slide gayly
down the banisters, to impress upon
his hearers the dangerous facility
with which they could go to hell, you
naturally look upon your infOrment
obviously, as you do upon the other
| also an eye witness, who describes

Canterbury at prize light. In both

not teen seriously misjunged.
But there are many instances in
which, hearing q strange story, you
withhold your belief, not because
you think the teller of the story Is q
liar, but from doubt as to his accur
scy or powers OF observation, The

THE Globe Democrat thinks that
Mr.. Mills displays an error of judg-
ment in seeking a seat in the United
States senate. Perhaps, but Mr.. Mills
has been deprived of that recognition
by his party in the house of repre-
sentatives which his abilities and his
party services entitled him to expect.
He is therefore justified in seeking
another and more secure position for
himself and a recognition by his state
of the eminent services he has rem
dered her. Mills election to the sem
ate will be accepted as an endorse
ment of his conduct in congress and
as a protest against his defeat as can-
didate for speaker.
