The Glories of Autumn.-A correspondent
of the Baltimore american says: 1.-THE autumn
poet has already begun to exasperate us with
his songs in praise of the majesty and grandeur
which the forests will put on when the leaves
receive their annual coloring. and to tell Us
how the most delicate russets and tans and
fairy colds and garnets will run riot. He in.
forms MS in glowing words that this is by far
the most lovely of our seasons.
but these are all the illusions of dreamer.
There is no beauty in the gaudy colors which
frost lavishes upon our forests, because it is
the work of the finger of death. 1t is sign
of the approach of desolation. It Is death and
destruction that make the colors so brilliant.
The real beauties of autumn are to be found
elsewhere. They are to be found in those
things which contain and maintain life-in the
vast seas of ripened corn which give to the
agricultural regions an air Of exceeding joy,
the full white and yellow ears sprinkling the
land from the Atlantic to the Pacific with
silver and gold and renewing in the hearts OF
the people faith, hope and charity. They are
to be found in the orchard, on the vine and
where the massive yellow pumpkin grows.
They are to be found where the brown nuts
peep from their burrs. They are to be found
where the squirrels are hording mp stores
for the winter. They are to be found in
the products of the soil.
who cares to sit and muse over a prospect
of death, as shown in the turning leaves, when
autumn's real glories lie in the jewels of q
bounteous harvest Tell MS of the joys of
autumn, not Of its SORROWS"

because as a matter of fact he did officially
withdraw as senior member of the firm of

MAKING ELECTION SURE.

Washington, April 24.-The first
gunshot Of opposition TO Senator Till
mans nomination to the Senate came
today in a letter from Detroit, in which
it is stated that the railroads are un-
derstood to be preparing to defeat
aim for reelection and to try to send
some man to Washington that they
can manage.
While there has been speculation as
10 whether or not there was any one
in South Carolina who cared to meet
the senator on the stump during the
present summer to contest his seat in
the Senate, and while several local
men have been suggested from time
TO time as possessing the necessary
requirements, ETC., the railroads have
been watching him, and keeping track
Of the fight he has been making for
better rates since the senate bill was
turned over to him to manage. This
has not suited the railroads of the
country These gigantic corporations
looking ahead in the future, see that
he is making trouble for them. They
have agreed that they cannot stand
for this, and he has been notified,
through people in the far West, that
he may look for defeat if it is in their
power to carry out their plans.
He has been asked the point blank
question whether he proposes to con-
tinue to wage war against the rail-
roads and corporate interests, and the
people who have inaugurated the
movement say that they demand of
him categorical answer to many
questions that they will shortly put to
him.
While the roads are playing Senator
Tillman, they are at the same time
making others dance to the music, one
Of these being Representative Charles
E. Townsend Of Michigan, author OF
the Esch-Townsend rate bill. The
South Carolina man is ready for any
fight the roads may make in their eff
forts to unseat him.-Columbia Rec
