The course of those Southern farmers
who have ridden into the Republican
ranks on the backs of the Third ?arty
masses comprehension. The two things
that the farmers of this section have
most cause to deprecate are Force bills
and high tariff, because the first will par
alyze the South, keep out settlers ana
make our lands absolutely unsaleable'
while the latter taxes every farm imple-
ment and every article of comfortable
wooden wear which the farmer has to
buy for himself and family. BY aban-
doning the Democratic party, therefore,
our farmers are voting directly against
their own interests and for perpetuating
the very grievances of which they now
so bitterly complain. And yet some of
them refuse to listen to reason and seem
to have gone stark mad.

Hereafter the Democratic press of Vir-
ginia ought to call things by their right
name, and instead of speaking Of "Bev-
erly, Third party" Field, Third party"
'Mann Page, Third party" &c, they
ought to say Beverly, Republican"
"Ficld, Republican" Mann Page, Re
publican &c. There are only two par
ties. One is the white mans Democratic
party. which is opposed to taxation for
monopoly and Negro Rule, and the other
Is the Republican party, which favors
Force bills and high tariff. Whoever is
not for one is for the other.

One of the leading members of the
National Burial Case Association, in
session at Chicago, says: "In the past
cholera patients have been put away in
cheap pine boxes; but we now have a
copper case that will be used in it's place.
This will make a marked increase in our
profits" A rise in the price of collins is
therefore confidently anticipated, and in
consequence the association is having an
unusually jolly meeting.

places proved to Mr.. Brown, beyond a
doubt, that his performance had been
witnessed by more than one fun-loving
urchin.
At such times Mr.. Brown would as
sumo all his dignity, and with very
red face would walk rapidly away,
bringing his gold-headed cane violent
ly down upon the pavement at every
step.
The first day of April was always a
great day for Tommy. On that day
the young scapegoat directed toward
the old gentleman all the mischievous
designs hitherto unknown to his latent
energies But, as Mr.. Brown could
hardly bring the might of the law to
bear on the deviser of these subtle and
embarrass ing tricks, he went on his
silent, irate way, hoping that the boy
would, sometime, grow away from his
annoying propensities-
Retaliation was the last thing to en-
ter Mr.. Browns mind, but to what
purpose IL did. finally, take up its
abiding-place with the uncertain-tem-
pered old gentleman, we shall present
ly see.
One bright morning in February.
Mr.. Brown and his nephew were seated
at breakfast in the cozy morning room,
which was not the least pleasant fea-
ture of their luxurious home, the uncle
perusing the morning paper, while his
handsome nephew was busy with a
letter from his adored one.

session of his soul and he broke out,
calm enough without, but surging g
| within:
"Uncle, when will you give us your
blessing?"
"Give you my blessingP What do you
mean, lad2 Are you about to make
your old uncle happy by settling down
in life, as young man should?'
Jed was not surprised at this, al
| though he had always been somewhat
at loss to understand why his uncle
was so anxious that he should marry,
| when he himself was bachelor.
Perhaps the hope of keeping his
nephew with him influenced the old
gentleman in this desire, for he loved
the ungrateful Jed as, he assured him
self, he might have loved his own son.
"Who is the fortunate young lady?"
he bethought himself to ask. after the
first flush of his happiness was over
Jed grew red and white by turns,
but he had resolved to face it out bold
ly. so ne put on cool front and re-
piled:
1T is Miss Helen Dav-Davis, un-
cle."
To say that the old gentleman turned
purple in his rage would not be putting
it too strongly; indeed, Jed rushed for
ward in some alarm, fearing that apo
plexy had attacked his dearly-beloved
uncle.
80, uncle =" he began. but Mr..
Brown waved him away.
l. -, sn1 ~l,.r,
at last he found words to utter his in
dignation. THAT chit! that" but his
emotions again overcame him and he
retired to the library to recover him
self, dropping his newspaper under the
table and his spectacles in the hall.
Its all up with me nowr thought
Jed, and indeed it was, for that even
ing his uncle called him into the Ii
brary, and although he at first ex-
postulated with his nephew-but to no
avail-he ended by disinheriting Jed
for evermore.
'To make this doubly sure" he
added, his face ruddy with anger and
his hands clinched on the arms of his
chair, Ito make this doubly sure, l my
self shall marry?'
Very wellr' answered Jed. coolly,
and left him without another word.
Jed went straight to Helen and told
her all. When she still refused to be-
come Mrs. Jedediah Brown, he accused
her of wanting his uncle's money, but
a moment later threw himself at her
feet and implored her forgiveness,
which, it is needless to add, was
granted.
On the morning of the fourteenth of
February Jed strolled into the library,
for his uncle had deferred the day of
his nephew's departure until his own
marriage, and Jed fingered, hoping
that the old gentleman would relent.
Not that he cared so much for the
property, for he was a strong, manly
young fellow and felt, with the conf
dence of youth, that he could easily
earn enough for two; but he loved his
uncle too dearly to wish to part from
him in anger.
He dropped into the huge leather
chair which always stood before the
library table and, unconsciously, his
eye fell on letter which lay open, so
that he took in its import before he
knew it.
DEAR MISS RoBISs;" it ran
.''Wnl you consent to be my wife as soon
as possible? HIRAM BROWN"
This was certainly short, but, of Jed's
knowledge of Miss Robins, he came
to the conclusion on the instant that it
would seem sweet to her vision.
Poor old gentleman!" he muttered
He has always kept himself shut up
in this musty library, and knows about

as much of Abigail Robins as a spring
chicken. Poor uncle.''
Just then his eyes rested on one of
those dreadful caricatures that adorn
the windows of stationerS as st. Val
entine's day draws near.
What on earth!" he exclaimed, when
it suddenly struck him that there was
an amazing resemblance between the
caricatured face and that of Tommy
Davis. At that instant light dawned
upod him, for there, on the table, lay
two envelopes, one directed to Miss
Abigail Robins, and the other, in the
same stiff, old-fashioned hand, to
Master Thomas Davis, Center street. :"
''Ha, ha, har' laughed Jed. as he lay
in his chair. Going to get even with
the young scapegoat at last. is he?
Well, that's good. Ha, ha, ha.''
Sudd enly an idea entered his head
and, knowing his uncle forgetfulness,
he acted upon it at once, and placing
the missives one in each envelope. he
fell back into his lounging attitude
lust as his uncle entered the room.
Got any mail to post?" asked Jed,
carelessly. I'm going down the street
presently"
His uncle glanced hastily at the table
and look of relief came over his face
as he noticed that the envelopes not
only contained the communications
that he had prepared, but lay. face
down, upon the baize top of the table.
Nor he answered, testify, at the
same time sealing and stamping the
envelopes. Jed watched him as he
waddled down the street and deposited
his letters in the nearest mailbox.
That's all right" thought Jed.
Now for developments" and he hast
ened off to see Helen.

Mugwump Jones Becomes a British Sub
iect,

United States Consul Jarrett at Bir-
mingham, England, announces that
Mai Jones. who was American consul
at Cardiff, Wales, has renounced his
United States citizenship and sworn
allegiance to Queen Victoria Jones
was born in England. but had passed
many years in this country, where he
had become naturalized Mr.. Jarrett,
in giving the reasons why Maj. Jones
forswears his allegiance to the United
States, says:
After he came here (England) he
became a mugwump, and later free
trader he also hates Mr.. Blaine; and
on these lines he got'to be immensely
popular here At last he completely
lost his head by being offered a candi-
dacy for member of parliament, to ac-
cept which he renounced forever his
United States citizenship and swore
allegiance to Queen Victoria"
From this it would appear that hatred
of Mr.. Blaine, joined with a belief in
free trade, is a sure passport to the
affections of John Bull This is the
reason why the mugwumps are re-
garded in England with so much favor.
They hate Mr.. Blaine and they love
free trade. The late consul at Cardiff
laid the foundation for his popularity
in Wales by becoming a mugwump and
proclaiming his hatred OF Mr.. Blaine
and the protection policy. If he had
remained loyal to American ideas and
and American standards be would never
have won the favor that has induced
him to give up his American citizenship.
The case of Maj. Jones is a striking in
stance of the denoralizing effect OF
mugwumpery and free traGe--The Irish

i care not that the snow lies deep
Upon the world about;
The hidden flowers they lie asleep,
And dream, and never doubt
But spring shall come again, and set
The blossoms in the vine:
The faithful year shall not forget
Her Valentine.
I care not that thousand miles
Keep me and mine apart;
For, when upon this page she smiles,
And gladdens in her heart,
Like spring, the sun returns to mo
And cheers these eyes of mine.
Ny sweetheart promises to be
My Valentine.
Be still my heart, and like the flowers
Hid underneath the snow,
Dream on, and soon the sunny hours
Shall wake you dreaming so;
And when the summer stars above,
Drip with their dews divine,
The flowers shall come, and, with them, love
And Valentine.

for where is the young man who has
not, at some time or other, yielded to
the wiles of the chubby little god who
is supposed to deal in certain cruel i'm
plements of warfare, working the GER
tain defeat, in time, of each and every
one of us?
With the above exception, Jed Brown
was most fortunate young man, for
had he not palatial home and a rich,
kind, though somewhat testy old uncle,
who proposed to leave Jed all his earth
ly possessions and who. meantime, be-
slowed all manner of kindnesses on the
young gentleman in question?
The exception above named, how
ever, was source of much discom-
future to our hero. He was in love
with Miss Helen Davis, and, to the peo-
pie of bennington, the town in which
the Browns and the Davises had lived
from Jed's earliest remembrance, this
explained all For old Hiram Brown
had held grudge against the DaviseS
for many years. He openly insulted
them by not recognizing them on the
street.
Strange to say, the Davis family did
not altogether return this feeling of
hostility. They regarded Mr.. Brown
as fussy old gentleman who was
easily angered, and the older members
of the family took little notice of their
neighbor's ways.
The youngest scion, however, Tommy
by name, took upon his young shoul-
ders the task of revenging the wrongs
of his fam lily, and many were the FIVE
cent pieces that old Hiram Brown en-
deavored to pick up from the dusty
street, only to find them so hot as to be
unbearable to the human touch, and to
see Tommy Davis chubby, roguish face
peeping from an area court or a con-
venient alley. while the shrill, high
laughter that issued from their hiding
