Even the smallest scrap OF paper,
that which every one throws away,

and melted down into cakes, while the

the arch of the foot at least one sound

Scraps of paper go TO the cardboard

What Congress has Done.

Huntsville (Ala) Argus.
General Wheeler, in his speeches
during the state campaign, asserted
that the present congress has passed
more laws for the benefit OF the pso-
pie, and p . cularly for the fa mers
and laboring people in general. than
any congress for a third OF II century.
Gen. Wheeler mentioned:
l. The repeal of the federal cleo
ton laws, which will forever prevent
any interference in elections by feder-
nj officials.
q The law providing for taxing
greenback and national bank money
8. The voluntary bankrupt act.
4. A benificent law restricting snd
placing safeguards upon immigration.
g. Law to amend the constitution,
so that senator's may be elected by the
people.
6. Law reclaiming 4S.000,o acres
of land worth $1,000, 900, 900, and ille-
gally held by corporations.
T. Laws to admit Utah, New Mex
leo and Arizona into the sisterhood of
states.
8 Laws extending mail facilities
reducing postal expenditures. and re-
ducing postage upon periodical publ
cations
Removing all tax from the fol-
lowing articles usad by farmers, by
paciug them on the free list, viz;
Agricultural implements,
Iron cotton ties,
Baggiug for cotton,
Bags for grain,
Salt,
Many agricultural seeds,
Cotton gins,
Binding twine,
10 Besides this. the house has re-
duced the tax on nearly everything
| bought by farmers, from one half to
one-iith the tax which was imposed
by the Republicans.
IL Congress has also abolished
| thousands Offices, so as to reduce the
expenses of the government many
million dollars.
II Last though probably most i'm
portant, this congress has passed an
| income law. which requires people of
wealth to pay their part OF the bur-
dens OF the government; and all this
| legislation will remove many hard
ships and lift burdens from men who
work, and in addition the law is SO
framed as to increase the foreign de-
mand, and therefore, the price OF
American farm products.

Secret Of meYIca'S Great
ness.

Some years ago, De Tovueville, the
distinguished Frenchman, was com
missioned by his country to visit
America for the purpose of studying
the genius OF our institutions. In re-
porting to the French senate, he said:
| went at your bidding, and passed
along their throughfares of trade;
ascended their mountains, and went
down their valleys; visited their
manufactures, their commercial mar
kets, and emporiums Of trade; | en-
tered their judicial courts and legis-
lative halls; but Tsoughteverywhere in
vain until | entered the church. 1t
was there, as listened to the soul
equalizing and soul-elevating princi
pies of the gospel of Christ, as they
fell from Sabbath to Sabbath upons the
masses of the people, that ] learned
why America was great and free, and
and why France was slave. Ram s

Good News from Tupeio.

Hon. j. M. Allen in his speech at
this place made reference to the fact
that he was known over the nation
as "Allen from 1lshomingo." In
support OF this assertion we clip the
following from the Washington Post.
Mr.. Allen, although now OF Lee, is
originally from Tishomingo county.
All over the country the credit Is plac-
ed where it belongs except in his ma
tive county, but since the truth is
known it gives us pleasure to inscribe
this name as one of the most promi-
nent ard honored of Iishomingo
distinguished sons:
Reports from the academies grove of
Tupelo are to the glad effect that Hon.
John M. Allen has received renewed
assurances OF the confidence and atfec-
tion of his constituents. Before he
lett here there was painful rumors
that he enlightened sutfragans of that
balmy neighborhood, weary CT long
separation from the object Of their
love, were contemplating his recall
and temporary, if not u permanent,
recovery of his talents to their own
delight. 1t is evident, however, that
Mr.. Allen has let no grass, not even
wire grass, grow beneath his feet
since he returned to Mississippi and
that, having made the piney woods
ring again with the applause and mer-
riment of an appreciative people, he
is once more master of the situation.
We are sincerely glad to hear this
news Glad for old fish omingo couu-
ty, glad for the First Mississippi dis
trict, and glad for ourselves. Mr..
Allen is not only a good fellow, Il
humorist, and Il poet, but he is a very
industrious and useful Representative
as we'll He is liked here for his at
tractive personal qualities, and re-
spected on account OF his conspicuous
ability. The day has passed in which
public men can be underrated because
they happen to be witty. The super
stittion that wisdom dwels only
with solemnity and heaviness has
taken wings and flown away. John
Allen himself has taught us that one
can be both shrewd and merry, both
sensible and gay. both potent and sa-
iirical. If he enlivens the dullness OF
Congressional routine with the light
and graceful play of his fancy and re-
lieves the turgid fustian of labored
oratory with happy qulp and harmless
jest, he can, non the less, deal serious
ly with serious things and render good
service TO his constituents and his
country.

len is coming back. We congratulate

Madeline Pollard has been justly
criticised because OF her detormina-

of her unenviable notoriety than is Mr.
