Furniture Polish.

Incombustible paint for WOO work
may be made by mixing the desired
color in powder in water. saturated
with potash, to which u little starch
paste has al been aided to stiflen it.
Woodwork coated with this paint will
not burn nor blister in the neigh bor-
hoo of stove or gas light. a poll h
pre- 'erab to warmth for furniture
may be made by boiling saturated
solution of potash in water, and Id
ing, while it boils, pieces of beeswax.
When cold this make 4 mass of the
conSi ,tenc, of soft soap, viii h may be
applied with brush. and which. with
brisk rubbing. will give a fine polish.
Much of the artistic ironwork now in
use is hell together by screws and
nuts. These are liable in time to be-
come loose, and it is we'll to know that
the oints may be made tight again by
simply hammeriGg the nuts on the
edge, which makes them smaller and
enables one to screw up the piece as
firmly as at first.

while it's cool: we're goin' to hev a
hot day. jedgin' from the signs The
sun set awful red to night"
A thin mist lowered over the
earth, and the grass was heavy with
dew. The air, already autumnal,
encircled the mountain tops with
ashen wells, softening the tints aud
blurring the outlines. The cid
wagon, with its worn buffalo cover
ing hanging over the back of the
seat, was drawn by Daniel Marston's
twenty-year old mare She logged
along with the reinS dangling more
loosely over her head than ever, if
could be: and the frequent Jerk was
missing this morning. The wisdom
Of this laxity in discipline was ap-
parently questioned, for the consci-
entious animal at length stopped
short and turned her head to look at
the couple behind. Seeing that her
master was in his usual place, she
broke into gentle, satisfied trot
The lake was in view and the air
grew more invigorating. AS they
neared the waters edge the sun
burst forth and poured down on the
CLASSY surface a shower of diamonds
Tiny waves curled up on the seq
ment of beach and a soft breeze
stirred the little ringlets under An
gienette's straw bonnet, which had
been trimmed by the village miiliner
only the day before. "Go long

Couldn't | hev it now?"
'Do you want it, Angie?"
No answer came. Daniel looked
from out the tail of his eve at the

saw two generous tears pouring down.

KENNEDY'S
MEDICAL DISCOVERY,
DONALD KENNEDY, OF ROXDURY, MASS,

Has discovered in one of our common
pasture weeds remedy that cures every
kind of Humor, from the worst Sorofula
down to common Pimple.
He has tried it in over eleven hundred
cases, and never failed except in two cases
(both thunder humor). ehas now in his
possession over two hundred certificates
of its value, all within twenty miles of
Boston. Send postal card for book.
A benefit is always experienced from
the first bottle, and perfect cure is war
ranted when the right quantity is taken.
When the lungs are affected it causes
shooting pains, like needles passing
through them; the same with the Liver or
Bowels. This is caused by the ducts being
stopped, and always disappears in week
after taking it. Read the label.
If the stomach is foul CT bilious it will
cause squeamiSh feelings at first.
No change Of diet ever necessary. Eat
the best you can get, and enough of it.
Dose, one tablespoonful in water at bed
time. Sold by all Druggists.

IMPRESSION.

In these restrained and careful times
Our knowledge petrifes our rhy mes.
All for that reckless fire men had
When IT. was witty to be mad
When wild conceits were piled in scores,
And lit by fiaring metaph' RS,
When all was crnzed ard out of tune
Yet held the music of the moon.
II we could dare to write as i'll
As some whose voices haunt US still,
Perhaps even we might call our own
Their deep enchanting undertone.
We are too difficult and nice
Zoo learned and too over wise,
Too much afraid of faults, to be
The flutes OF bold sincerity.
For. as this sweet life passes by,
We blink and nod with critic eye;
We've no words rude enough to give
Its charm, so frank and fugitive.
The green and scarlet of the park,
The undulating streets at dark,
The brown smoke flown across the blue,
This crowded city We walk through,
The pallid faces full of pain,
The field smell of the passing vain,
The laughter. longing. perfume, strife,
The daily spectacls of life:
All shall this be given in rhyme.
BY rhymsters of a knowing time?
All for the age when we're was glad,
Being godlike. to be bad and mad.

The Constitution of the United States
protects the negro against any discrimi-
uation based upon race or color, and no
provision can be placed in the proposed
Constitution that will conflict with
this guarantee of the Federal Constitu-
ton to the negroes. The Tillman
leaders are all pledged to an educational
aud property qualification. which will,
it is true, disfraochise the majority of
the negroes, but will place in the same
condition thousands Of white men.
Besides we do not believe the leaders
of the Tilmanites, those who will con-
troll the Convention, desire the ellmi-
nation of the negro vote. They
dickered with the negro when they
defeated Hampton, they dickered with
the negro when they had Gen. Noise
counted out and they are now openly
joining forces with the negro in Beaufort
County to defeat the Straig ghtout
candidates for the Legislature.
4. The public school system will be
destroyed by the repeal of the 2 mill
school tax clause. and the b1rden Of
taxation made heavier upon the poor man
BY the futile attempt to make So poll
tax take the place of the 2 mill tax,
which will be abolished.
5. The homestead law will undoubt-
edly be repealed and the unfortunate
debtor will be left without single pro-
lection.
6. The Tillmanite leaders propose to
frame and adopt Constitution without
referring it to vote Of the people for
ratification This is an outrageous
assumption Of power which the people
should deny any body Of men.
7. A Constitution under which all
the people are expected to live peace
fully and con'entedly should be the
work of representivcs Of the whole peo-
pie. and not of faction, filled with
rancour and hatred for an intelligent
and powerful minority, which they
have eDdeavored to humiliate and crush
BY all the means at their command
since they came into power four years
ago. With Gen. Farley We think that
. CONSTITUTION should not be adopted
while hate and partisanship is nsthe
ascendency.
A Constitution is not needed, but
even it it we're, the time is not propi-
tious for framing it.

Yesterday evening Mrs. T. NJ.

street, received a very insulting anony-
nous letter, which she showed to some
gentlemen, who promptly investigated
it. The writer Of the letter proved to
be one Mary Wilson, who is Mrs.
DeLorme's washer woman. Martha
Abe, another notorious character was
said to be implicated in the writing Of
the letter. Last night about 10 O'Clock
several disguised men called upon these
ladies of color, took them out in an adj
joining field. where they whipped them
soundly. The affair caused no excite
ment. Both of these negroes, | am
told, are unpopular with the negroes
