hood and honor of our fathers will
show to night. Let all true south
erners stay away"
Harriet Beecher Stowe, authoress
Of that extravagantly ovsrdrawn
novel, never trod foot on southern
soil. What did she know Of life IN
the South? Certainly nothing from
personal observation. The plot for
the famous Uncle Toms Cabin
which portays the 'sufferings OF the
negro slave was conceived in Mrs.
Stoves fertile Imagination.
The book was intended for politi-.
cal efect--a sort Of campaign litera-
ture. The abolitionists wanted just
such book, to create sympathy
for the negro slave, and that would,
the willy politicians knew, add
strength to their party.
At the very time Mrs. Stoves
plethoric pen was graphically por-
traying 'the sufferings of the negro
slave" there were. and are to-day
thousands of miserable white slaves
in the north, struggling in the chains
of wretched poverty, under the
shadow of the palatial roofs of cruel
task masters, grown rich from the
toll of weary hands and from the
sweat of pallid brows. Who will
strike the letters from their suf-
fering bodies?
Why has not some humanitarian
in the north, inspired by the prompt
ings of heart that can feel anoth-
er's woes, write book in behalf of
their white slaves? Portray their
wrongs-pour out the heart in de-
picting the CALLING chains which
bind them soul and body. Then
dramatize the book-ah /! the cur
tain would rise upon scenes that
would make the angels weep.

From the New orleans Picayune.

The trouble which now broods upon Col
Ben. Cason, the well-known superintend-
ent of the Pacific Express Company, and
which is swiftly bringing his raven locks
to the complexion of cotton, is all brought
about by what is known as the water flea
The water flea has suddenly appeared in
Col. Cason's famous frog pond and the
poor little and large frogs. for the colonel
says he has some as large as a small
sized dog. are being gradually killed off.
The water flea is a very peculiar kind of
animal, Col Cason says, and he is a some
loss how to deal with it. He says the wat
err flea has a long bill-sort of mouth, sim
liar to that of vampire, and that ii sinks
its bill deep into the top of his frogs
backs, and there sucks their very life
blood. He caught one of his best and fat
test frogs yesterday and found on it over
one hundred water fieas.
Col. Cason has a very large frog pond
now, and this trouble comes very near to
his heart, for he is devoted to the culture
of this animal, so much so that he has
built large pond and has supplied it with
all that a frog would need in his business
He says that the latest crop of young
frogs which he is raising, and which as
yet have hardly gotten out of tadpoledom.

Col. Cason would be very grateful in

friends would suggest something to stav

RIoHMoND's REGISTRATION.
A Request TO ENpunge Names to the

Augusta. Ca. Sept. 1S.-Something out
of the usual run occurred in the rear
office of Tax Collector Boiler this morn
ing, where the board of registrars are
hard at work on the registration lists
for the purpose Of purging from it all
fraudulent names or illegal voters.
The following committee appeared:
Messrs. Jesse Thompson, L. +. Good
rich, S NJ Potts. S. NJ. Potts, Jr., J. l..
Bowles, A. =. Saxon, George A. Dem
ming and c.. +. Lewis. Mr. Thompson,
as spokesman informed the registrars
they claimed were Illegal and asked that
they be stricken out In connection with
the names, some loo in number, the
committee also had mass of atfida-
Wits of various kinds.
The board of registrars asked the COM
each case would be given full considera-
ton This course was accepted by the
committee and they left.
The committee was composed OF both
democrats and populists, but those VINO
are democrats are generally understood
TO be A. z. AS. The Incorporation Of
the latter with the former is matter
of comment
In the opinion of Mr.. Blacks friends
this does not imply that these A. 7. A.
democrats will vote against MIN, but
simply that they are interested IN purg-
ing the registration lists, with view
to some elections for school commits
sioners, which come later on. Mr.. jesse
