A long-!egged. gawky sort of chap
from down The Potomac, who was Wis

the office OF the Arlington Hotel, APP

sights OF the capital, wien one of the
clerks tackled him iur At Bit of fnn.

you - inquired the clerk.

"Well, yes, ne and my wife has

"Then it amt no place for my wife. "
This was STARTER for the clerk.

''She would be greatly pleased"
"In course she would. She'd be
tickled to death, she would; but |
won't let her come"
But why %
You don't know my wife, l reck-
on?''
Il have never had that pleasure, y
bowed the clerk.
"In course you haven't. She's a
fine woman, but she's got her weak
ness"
But life in this hotel would bring
her around all right"
That's what you say, young Teller,
but know Susan. Why, eff she come
here to live, she wouldn't be here a
week till she'd be runnin' acrost the
street seven times day to borrow
some dern thing er other frum the
White House folks. She can't nelp it
to save her life, but they're kinder
used to it in our place, and it makes
it come good deal easier on me than
it would here, where people is some

spread, without bumpin' up against

TERRIBLE EXPLOSION!
Too High Pressure.

In these days of keen competition in every
line, when the business man is compelled to
bend his intellect and every energy to the
success of his business the clerk, book
keeper, professional man and aborer, to
drive themselves at a terrific rate there can
be but one result-an explosion, which, if
not resulting in immediate death, leaves
them with shattered brains and bodies.
They are running at too high pressure.
The strain is too great Something must
and does give way. This is equally true of
women. Though their sphere is more
limited they have their daily burdens, frets,
and worries, and the results are the same as
with their stronger companions.
This condition is growing worse every
day. The rapidity of its increase is awful
to contemplate. Our homes, hospitals, and
insane asylums are full of these unfortunates,
and are being crowded still further There
is but one solution of the matter. Recog-
nize the importance of the situation at once,
and take the necessary measures to over
come it. If you have failing memory, hot
flashes, dizziness, nervous or sick headache,
biliousness, irritability, melancholy, sleep
lessness, fainting, nervous dyspepsia, cpl
lepsy, etc, know that any one of them is but
a symptom of the calamity that may befall

BROTHER CONWAY, of the Norton
Champion, has this to say of Mr.,
Heaton, who shot at some of his
enemies at Norton last week, and in
cidently gives some awfully good
advice:
"He had money to throw at the
birds. Moreover, he threw it at them
with more delight than ever agitated
the naughty boys heart when his
tusilade of pebbles makes the feathers
fly, and the schoolbook sermons to
follow after.
He threw his gold at birds indis-
criInlnately; but his successful aim
seems to have been successful in hit
ting only sbitepokes.
Now he has not one bronze cent left
to chase away the black raven perch
ed ominously above his housetop; not
a red copper to wing the downy plum
ed angel of Mercy.
Dear reader, youthful and hopeful,
listen to this, heed your uncle: Don't
be a damned fool. Learn by the
follies of others. Harken to Isgo;
Put money in thy purse. Know
your Mary Ann: Get plenty while
a getting.
In this world you may meet friends
and favors- but they will sacrifice
you for dollar in their own need.
If you have money you have all; if
you have the price you may purchase
at public auction earth or heaveni
both are for sale.
Morg Heaton looked around him
for chumps upon whom to shower
his fortune. Were he now to solicit
them for bread he would be stunned
with hail storm Of stones"

Committee Meeting.

The populist central committee
held a meeting Tuesday, and listened
to reports from the various townships
regarding the political situation. The
reports for the most part were very
favorable. So that the committee
feels very confident Of electing the en-
tire ticket. The work for the re-
msinder of the campaign was laid
out. Almost all of the candidates
were present and all are now hard at
work. Every populist, and we may
and every democrat, should see to 1t
that the voters are at the polls, and
that they be urged to vote the ticket
straight.

THE HONEST DOLLAR.

shipped $25OOOO in gold to the sub
treasury in New York are out $l,50O
The face value of the coin which they
sent was correct but upon the delicate
balances of the subtreasury the ST.

honest dollar we hear so much about
S25O,OOO in gold coin only worth
S248, 500, or circulating with $1,000 of
fiat. 50 long as it circulated among
tue people it was "honest," but when
# faced the delicate balances OF the
subtreasury the mask was torn off,
and it was shorn of $1,000 of value.

Hon. John c. New. of Indiana. a
leader in the Republican party. says OF
the election of Mr.. Bradley what here
follows:
1.-The election of Colonel Bradley as
Governor Of. Kentucky, the first practi-
cal break OF the solid South. argues the
fact that sectional lines no longer. as
between the North and the South. d.
vide the people on issues that are OF nat
ioral importance. The Republican party,
following the example Of General Grant
az Appomattox. is DESTROYS OF having a
united country For the benefit Of the
whole country 1t is anxious to obliterate
sectional lines. 1t will now recognize. /
believe. i'm the election OF Colonel Brad
lev as Governor Of the State OF Henry
Clay, the great ey9onent OF protection,
that Republican principles are pervading
the whole country. II would be an ex-
coedlngly fitting time for the next Re-
publican convention to nominate for
Vioe-President the first man who has
succeeded in successfully contesting a
race in Southern State on Republican
principles"
Mr.. News structure will tumble over.
1t hasn't good foundation. The north
ern Republicans will scoff at Mr.. News
proposition. 1t Is one that needs no argu-
ment, seeing that 1t has no friends.

Thackeray and slavery.

The London Times prints a hitherto
unpublished letter written by William Nj.
Thackeray when he was at the Clarendon
Hotel In New York. April 6. 1853. In It
he says: II have come here from the
South not so Mortified as perhaps ! ought
10 be with slavery. which. IN the towns,
IS not by any means q horrlfying insti-
tuition. The negroes In the good families
are the happiest. LATEST. comfortablest
race Of menials. They are kept luxur-
iously in working time. and cared for
most benevolently in old age"
OF similar purport was letter written
from Richmond by Thackeray 10 q
friend OF his in England. Having seen
something Of slave life in Virginia, ne
could not but compare 1t with the life OF
mental classes elsewhere. with the ef-
feet Of not being $50 horrified as per-
haps" some Of his Exeter Hall friends
thought that he fought to be-"
Thackeray no doubt took into con-
sIderation. too. the fact that. bad as
American slavery was--or rather was rep
resented TO belt was better than that
existing I'm Africa. and that the trans
lation from African barbarism and sla-
very was a great Improvement for the
poor, naked creatures whom Dutch. Eng
lish, and New England traders bought
on the shores OF Africa and sold to the
planters OF Virginia and the Carolinas.

The VIRGINIA Victory.

II IL true that the vote in Virginia
on Tuesday was Eight" but 1t seems TO
have been enough for all practical pur-
poses With more than four fifths OF
the membership OF the Senate and two
thirds of the membership of the House or
Delegates Democratic. we ought TO De
able to get along with legislation very
well indeed.
on the day that we won this victory
in Virginia. such great and sure Demo-
cratic States as Kentucky. Maryland
and New Jersey were carried by the
Republicans.
This comparison is greatly TO the ad-
vantage OF our party here. especially as
little or no attempt was made 10 arouse
the voters in the majority of the counties
and the Democrats had fewer speakers
OF the stump than during any other can
vass In the last twenty-five years. The
absence Of prominent men from the
stump was noticeable and was frequently
commented upon for a month before the
day Of election.
We suppose that they were firmly
persuaded In their own minus that their
services were not needed.
So far as the power to legislate Is con-
cerned. the Democrats have all the mem
bers. needed in the Legislature; yet we
regret that several counties that we
should have carried were lost TO us.
The defeats of which we speak were
mostly due to local jealousies and d.
visions In our own ranks. All the rest
were due 10 overconfdence; our people
were sure that they would win. and took
little or no pains to organize and to
have public meetings. a.,.4 .-..-
The State Democratic Committee never
INDUCED them in this view: but on the
contrary combated 1t with unoeasing
yigor and industry. and were thus in
strumental in saving many counties. 1t
was a campaign that required OF the
chairman and his secretary exacting Ia
Dor and sleepless vigilance. However,
all this belongs TO the past. Let us re-
solve to profit by our experience. and,
mean while, we may rejoice that the
Executive and Legislative departments
of our State Government are in the hands
OF true blue Democrats.

who conversed with him for several mo-
ments, but the couple plainly felt en-
barrassed by the actions Of the crowd.
and apparently hoping to get rid OF them.
started To walk To the lodge gate. The
crowd. however. refused TO take the hint,
and followed close behind them.
1T was an odd spectacle, the solitary
figures Of the Duke and Duchess trudg-
ing along the muddy country rode. In the
half darkness OF misty twilight. and
followed by Il motley crowd Of wheel
men and other people.
''They had walked almost half way to
the east lodge gate when the Vanderbilt
carriage came dasiIing down the road,
drawn by a pair Of spirited bays and
driven by Johnson, the coachman. The
Duke and Duchess got in and were whisk-
ed away, leaving the crowd far behind
them
The reason that there was no carriage
at the train was that the vanderblt's
coachman at Idle Hour. their country
place. on Long Island, attended tbe we'd
ding In New York and returned by the
regular train, which was seven minutes
later than the special on which the Duke
and Duchess travelled.

A statement iss made a. coming from
Burnley Taylor that though the appa-
rent loss to the Commonwealth on
account OF his forgerIes- Ii more than
$1,000. the actual loss viii not be more
than about 5000.
Tsylor's explanation II that many OF
the court orders which have been listed
as forgeries are not wholly forged. but
are genuine orders raised" We give
him the benefit of his statement. Proba-
bly, /, IL as he says. II IL just as much
q crime TO raise an order as 1t IL to
forge II from beginning to end. but never
mind about that-what we are now seek
ing to do Is to secure legislation that
will prevent any recurrence Of these Tor
geries. The State did not profit by Its
experience in Scott county. and may not
profit by this II public attention Is not
drawn to the looseness Of our laws.
As our laws stand. court order upon
the State Treasury need only be signed
by the Clerk Of the court or one OF his
deputies. A better way would be to re-
quire the Judge to countersign each or
der or else certify under his own sigma
tLre at the end Of each term what orders
have been made BY him upon the State
Treasury. Either plan would be an i'm
provement upon the present law; but we
incline to the opinion that the latter plan
is preferable. and We believe 1t would
nut an absolute check upon such for
geries as those which were committed by
Taylor
Many of the laws of Virginia with re-
spect to collecting and disbursing reve-
nues are antlquated and Ineffective. II Is
a pity that they cannot be revised and
amended in the light Of the experience
OF other States and Of the United States
Government. but we scarcely dare to
hope that this will be done.
We are much afraid that the Legsla-
ture will continue the old. old policy.
which Is TO wait until the horse Is gone
before locking the stable door.
We dare say thas II a proposition had
been made five years ago to employ ex-
perts to recommend changes In the
method of giving court orders. ETC., 1t
would have been voted down as a use
less expense; yet we shall now doubtless
find the Legislature ready enough to
pass laws to cure the evil after Ii has
cost us from 5000 TO $4,000. or more.
