sole object Of securing Republican sue

content upon the anticipation Of victory
but grid on the arnor ofrlght and justice

enthusiasm which the business of our
cause engenders, and assist to the full ex-
tent of your power in making that victory
so overwhelming that it will leave no

THE NEGRO EXODUS FROM THE
South. "A Now Orleans dispatch
says the negro exodus continues in
the northern part of Louisiana. 1t
is rudely estimated that ten thou~
sand negroes will have left by the
time the emigration fever ends. The
reduction of wages, owing to the
low prices of cotton, is the main
cause but an effort is made to give
it the Appearance Of fear that an
other election may touch them in
life or limb. Really no such fear is
entertained by the emigrants. They
have no yield for the labor Of last
year and see no prospects Of i'm.
provcment; some therefore leave on
Inducements by railroad men from
Kansas and others follow. It is
notable that there is but little ennis
grafton from what has been desig-
mated as the bull >dozed region,
which shows that there is no political
cause for the movement.

A Wife Beaten helpless and the

Cssamuaits-A Thorough Isyes-


tssssion Asked For. Is


The wife of tho man William Don
nelly who figured in the police record
on Sunday last for insulting the sane
tity Of the Sabbath and sacreiigously
polluting the precincts Of the Delaware
Avenue church bv knocking man
down under the shadow of its very
portals, is in a condition infinitely
worse that was at first supposed. There
are doubts whether she will recover
The full particulars Of the affair did
not crop out at the investigation but
recently there have been other revela
tons which place the man Donnelly in
an unsnviabls light.


Yesterday week was the time Of the
trouble. Upon the evening Of that day
Mrs. Donelly went to church and upon
returning was met by this man, her
husband who oanght her and dragging
her up stairs by the hair Of the head,
began in the most barbarous fashion to
vent his anger. He kicked and stamp
I'd the fallen woman into insensibility
and then when she had tainted deluged
her with q bucket Of water. She was
picked up and put to bed and siuce
that time has been unable to get up.
She is perfectly helpless. The physi.
sician is in constant attendance. The
left lung is so injured that trsm present
prospects the indications are that her
injuries will be fatal. There are four
children in the house Of ages, four,
nine, eleven and thirteen years respsc-
lively. ..


The unfortunate woman, in her agony,
is unable to supply hel own physical
wants and she has to be attended by
the neighbors. The residents Of the
Avenue have interested themselves in
behalf Of the poor woman, and take
turns in supplying her and her children
with the immediate necessities.


The strange side of the unusual oc-
currence is that the mans brutality
should be sanctioned by the congrega-
tion with which he hypocritically OBJ
serves communion. After the assault
was made the members of the Delaware
Avenue Church took the matter in hand
for the purpose of investigating it.
Whether the full facts were brought
before the body We cannot positively
say, but we are informed that they
were. To the surprise of many the
church body by vote declared the man
innocent, thus virtually upholding
brutal acts that were self evident and
condoning and apoloeising for the
very acts from which society demands
protection.


The condition of the lady ia such that
the utmost care is required and efforts
are being made to have her taken to
the hospital where she will be safe from
the maddened and dangerous attack
Of her husband. For the reputation Of
the congregation before whom the man
was tried and by them acquitted it is
necessary that the matter should be
more thoroughly investigated. Society
demand this.

Near Gold Greek, Faulkner county,
Ark, and about seven miles from The
railroad, lives a man named Rhea. a
farmer. One Monday evening, not long
ago, while Rhea and hiSwife were sitting
in front Of their door, two dogs jumped
over the fence and ran under the house.
Presently terrific bowling and fighting
began, and continued for some time,
when at last one of the dogs darted out,
leaped over the fence, and ran away.
The other dog, large brindle Of de-
cidedly ugly tyre, followed as tar as the
fence, but stopped, turned around, and
started toward Rhea with its mouth half
open. Rhea picked up an old churn
dasher, and rs the dog sprang at him
struck the beast on the head. Stunned
for a moment, the animal recoiled, but
only for a moment, for it sprang again
before Rhea lad time to prepare himself
Rhea grappled the dog by the throat and
held its mouth as tar away as possible,
and desperate struggle began. The
dogs eyes glared and its mouth emitted
the froth peculiar to hydrophobia. Mrs.
Rhea ran into the house and soon re-
turned with case-knife, which she
handed to her husband. The blunt
pointed and dull.edged weapon went
time and again against the animals
throat without drawing blood or lessen
ing its fury. The strong grasp of the
man kept its teeth away, but such a grip
could not last long. Again the woman
entered the house, and this time returned
with a shotgun. Cooking it and rushing
up to the floundering dog, she placed the
muzzle close to the animals fanks and
fired. There was seemingly additional
glare of the eyes, but no sound. The
gun was again fired and the animal fell

Whatever this subtle attribute may be
called-this happy knack of saying and
doing exactly the best thing that can he
said and done under the circumstances
lis certainly highly valuable one in
every department of life. A lady of
this city recently issued invitations for
a dinner party of twelve, and on the
morning of the appointed day, when
comforting with the head servant, very
accomplished and well-trained waiter,
she discovered that one of the twelve
silver shells in which scalloped oysters
were to be served had been misplaced.
Rigid search for the missing article
having proved unavailing, the lady de-
cided that sooner than give up that par
ticular course she would simply decline
oysters when they were handed her and
so the eleven shells would be sufficient.
1t happened that when the oysters were
served at dinner by the same accom-
rlished attendant his mistress was en-
gagged in very animated conversation
with one or two of her ncighbors, and
forgetting her determination she took
one ofthe shells of oysters and set it be-
fore herself. If the servants heart fell
in CONSERVATION at this he gave no ex-
ternal sign of it, but speaking in tones
distinct though low, said, respectfully
Excuse me, madam, but you said l

bade your eating oysters" His mistress
laughed and returned the oysters to the
waiter, saying in explanation to her
guests: II am 50 abscnt-minded that
have to engage Thomas to remember
things for me sometimes" which, in
deed, was literally true. After the

The Kansas City Journal tells how to
WOO sleep when one is restless. Sit
down in an easy position. relaxing all
the muscles of the body, and let the
head drop forward upon the breast, as
low as it will fall without forcing it.
Sit quietly this way for few minutes,
freeing all the powers Of the body, and a
restful, drowsy feeling will ensue, which
will, if not disturbed, lead to refresh
ing sleep. If the sleepless fit comes
on in the night one can simply sit up in
the position described. Stiffness of any
part of the body must be avoided, and
it is well to bend the head forward after
lying down, rather than to keep it
straig or throw it back upon the
pillow. The writer suffered several
years from sleeplessness caused by
severe pain and nervousness, and was
taught the above by physician of great
experience and ability, and found through
it complete relief Many persons SINH
