It is an old savin# that “ ctirsen like I chickens always come home to roo i." ■mil experience Inis frequently verified , ils truth. sin the United States, in the event ol a war with Mexico, would realize the folly I of allowing to remain on the stutiiie | hooks a law proscribing all those who uifederate army. Whilst applies to those who wen; actually in the service, and prevents them from holding a commission in the army, still the young men of the south would never consent to nerve the govern- ment whilst their lathers were thus branded with proscription. To declare that the men who fought for what they believed in lie right, thereby became tin- j worthy to hold a commission in the j nrmv, is a standing insult to the whole i great effort is being made to secure a victory for the ‘‘Plumed Knight.” A pocket sowing machine is said by a Boston paper to be llie latest novelty. It is doubtless a needle. Don’t you see (lie point? Tiik Burlington Free Press states that while the world ‘‘alderman” is in all the dictionaries the word “boodle” cannot be found in any. Of course not. The presence of tlie “alderman” is a sullicient reason for the absence of the boodle. Aw'hiiiam) Foiuirh lias written a book entitled “The Kings I Have Met.” Archie neglects to state whether lie met them with queens or aces, and conse quently the word is ignorant as to whethtt the acquaintance proved a joy or a sorrow. Tins - lawyer who defends Spies, the Chicago anarchist, asks the jury to acquit on the ground that, “barking dogs never bite.” The St. Louis Kcptiblicun very appropriately suggests that they very rarely do after they have been properly hung. It is to he iioped that the an archists will Improperly hung.. Rouf.kt and Alfred Taylor, two broth ers, are running as democratic and re publican candidates for governor of Ten nessee. Their aged father, Colonel Nat Taylor, still lives, and it is seriously sug gested that the prohibitionists, to which party he belongs, will nominate him for governor. The Taylor family are bound to have the governor’s office tins year. south, and any southern born men who would volunteer to light for the United States, whilst the law was in force, would lie to show themselves either as indiffer ent to the disgrace, or even approving it. We predict that the volunteer forces in Texas will cither disband or refuse to serve in tlie United States army, and that all idea of organizing companies in the southern states will be abandoned. Let the congress repeal tins law or else let the people of the north and west do the fighting for the nation. No doubt they could easily whip Mex ico without our assistance, but we are in favor of their “going alone” under the circumstances. Mexico can hardly have anticipated Ibis state of things, and we cannot suppose her officials have counted on aid from the south, but it will cer tainly lie embarrassing to the United States to have Texas remain qiftet and inactive in the event of a war with her neighbor. When Paul and Silas were tiiriist into jail and scourged, and afterwards offered their freedom upon condition they would leave the city, those brave and devoted men replied nay, but let them send and bring us forth publicly. Apostles of peace though they were, yet they knew what was due them as Ilonum citizens, and would not brook an insult to their citizenship. So congress, having put this brand upon our soldiers, without cause, must repeal the law if they would have us help them light the battles of the country. Itl THKKKUItll II. IIA YES. It became rumored a few days ago that Hutherford B. Mayes would lie nomi nated by the republicans in the tenth Ohio district for congress. The rumor resulted in the opening of subscriptions to defeat him. The Bloomfield (Iowa) Democrat started a “Fund to beat the Fraud” with these blistering remarks: “The election of Tilclen, now that he is dead, is ! conceded by his bitterest political enemies, and j the election to congress of the man who so I wronged the dead statesman, his people and his j party will be a gross insult to the memory of Til- den, as is his nomination a gross insult to decent people. “The district from which Hayes is nominated ! is republican by a small majority. A hard light j will undoubtedly defeat him, and the Democrat hereby enlists in the ranks of his opposers, and ! proposes to raise a fund to be sent to the demo- I cratic chairman of the tenth Ohio district, to be ' used honorably in the defeat of the old fraud. ; “It is sufficient to know that Hayes is a can- j ^ |j rr rn A rm yJ firm CENTRAL,PEOPLE’S Li TO CLOSE OTTT STEAMERS!

Whether they are willing to tight against the (lag or for it, makes no difference to the Tribune. It is singing its old song against tlie confederacy to a new tune in favor of Mexico.” The peo ple of the south will liurdly be so much disposed to “eat lire” when they come to understand the manner in which they .are proscribed by United States statutes. The Philadelphia Ledger lias come to -conclusion that, after all, the “Cutting" incident may do good if it shows the en terprising American patriot on the fron tier that he cannot cut up capers with impunity ucrosi the boundary line by calling bis country to the rescue. Now, when it is made known that the law breaking folly he commits in hot haste he will have a chance to repent at cool leisure in jail, he will be much more likely to keep rein on whatever wit he lias and conduct himself accordingly. A Livkkpool paper says Henry Ward Beecher does-not draw with his lectures ; that his sermons, if they interest, do not electrify, and that America’s greatest preacher has failed to justify his fame in England. This is so very singular that the Now York World thinks something must lie wrong. It says that probably Mr. Beecher should have done with ids lectures and sermons as Dixey did with his “ Adonis." He should have had them overhauled by a native capable of introducing familiar “points,” within the easy comprehension of the roast-beef in tellect of old England. The rumor of unarmed Chinese inva sion of the United states will speedily knock out of the public mind all thought of tile little Mexican affair. A cutempo- rerv suggests that when the Chinese tom-lmu is heard along our defenseless const and the American voter is hustling to the nearest place of safety, Mexico will he relegated to the dim past. A Chinese army, stationed in New York, could live t"'*' years on the rats, cats and sparrows’ nests ol the metropolis, while our own volunteers, with pork and hard tack cor nered in Chicago, would starve. It would It would he true policy, perhaps,to recall the president from tiie Adirondacks at FROM THE tVROMO SOURCE. The New York Fun, in an elaborate re view of sixteen months of the Cleveland administration, comes to the conclusion that thu president is not as strong with his party ns ho was in 1S84, hut has es tablished himself in the affections of the mugwumps. The Sun even goes so far as to say: “We violate no secrecy in say ing that a very strong effort has been re quired to prevent an open breach be tween the president and the heads of tiie democracy in congress;” and it usserts that even in his own state of New York he is weaker than he was in 1884, partly through the withdrawal of Daniel Man ning from tiie cabinet and partly because his appointments have not placated the democratic element in New York that was unfriendly, and was barely prevented from breaking out in overt hostility in the presidential election. For these reasons the Sun predicts that Mr. Cleve land will not be the candidate of his party again. The esteemed St.. Louis Republican seems to be of the opinion that this is prejudging tho question too far in ad vance, and goes on to say : “It is nearly, two years to the nominating convention of 1888, and, with the emphatic endorse ment of every state democratic conven tion that has been held up to this time given to his administration, the president may certainly leave the matter to tiie democratic masses, in perfect confidence that they will recognize his claims on their gratitude.” It would certainly he far more in ac cordance with the principles of consis tency to leave this question with tho democratic masses rattier than to an ene my of the democratic administration. The Sun did wlmt it could to defeat the election of Air. Cleveland, and used all means at command to place the success of national democracy beyond the possi bilities. The democratic masses did not go to the Sun, though “it shines for all,” in search of advice during the last cam paign, nor will they be likely to lay any store by its predictions for the approach ing one. this creature Hayes, immediately after the death of Samuel .1. Tilden. We need not repeat or paraphrase them here. No funds are needed to defeat him. He is more despised by republicans to-day than hv democrats. lie is a breathing monument of republican infamy, and his presence above ground is a menace and a pest to his party. The object of the republicans is to keep K. B. Hayes obscure as possible until lie ceases to breathe and they can hustle him out of sight under ground. Poor, puerile tool. Like a fox without a hole, like a bird without a nest, like a “Wandering Jew” without a grave, he has nowhere to hide his infamy. His character is the scandal of t lie nations. 11 is past has been as a raging wave of the sea, foaming out its shame, and . his future will he as a wandering star to whom is reserved the blackness of darkness forever. Friend less, futureless, and branded he lives. Friendless, futureless, and branded lie’ll die. Fate lias finished its traditional irony. Time has brought about its his toric revenge. How Rutherford B. Hayes must envy Samuel J. Tilden the sweet peacefulness and rest that he finds in his widowless palace—the grave. REMNANTS OF COTTON FLANNEL! REMNANTS OF COTTON FLANNEL!

This probably may account for the fact that there is still a lingering hope that there may possibly he a little virtue in the “bloody shirt” wave and they will try it just one more time. It matters not how manifest such “manifest destiny” may be. Mr. Blaine and all the Flokida and Alabama should be proud of their Jefferson counties. Jefferson county, Fla., has some of the best land and some of the best people on the continent, and Jefferson county, Ala., has Birmingham.—Jacksonville Herald. . These two Jeftersons are the king counties of the two states. Birmingham is a great metropolis in embryo, and it will yet assume proportions which it would almost be dream-like to name. Jef ferson county, Fla., is the richest, healthiest and most strikingly beautiful spot in all that romantic state. Its people are hospitable, cultured and pros perous to an extent that makes life there a rosy path. Captain John Ulmer, of Jefferson county, Fla., has a wife and twelve children, all natives. And the fourteen taken together are said to con stitute tiie handsomest family in the whole south, people from every section agreeing in the verdict. Their good looks are not their only graces. They are representative products of Jefferson county, and are breathing evidences that there’s life in the old land vet. Mh. W. E. Montgomehy is the father of a bouncing baby boy, and Bill iB as happy as he can be.—Apalachicola Times. Who is Bill, the “bouncing baby hoy,” or W. E. Montgomery? Or is Bill some third party, some enemy of W. E. Mont gomery, who is rejoicing because of the consternation and chagrin created by the arrival of tiie “bouncing baby hoy?” Why is it that a rural editor can discuss the tariff—in his patent outside—with logic and eloquence, and prognosticate presidential candidates with the precis ion of an augur, and yet the bobbing up of a forty-pound watermelon, or a “bounc ing bahv boy” knocks his syntax and perspicuity into a most superlative mess? The editor of the Apalachicola Times ought to he made to walk tiie floor with this “bouncing baby hoy” every time he lias the—every time he cries, until he (the editor) learns how to write a para graph about a man and a baby without getting the two hopelessly confused. Let him stick to the patent outside and the tarilf. The Montgomery Advertiser tosses its head poetically, and speaks of a cemetery as a “sleeping field.” The “field” part of the figure is plagiarism from the expres sion “potters’ field,’’ where the Adver tiser will he buried some day if it doesn’t quit slandering Columbus, hut the "sleep ing” part is original. It has been a characteristic of the paper a long time. Secietarv Bayard because of his for-' bourbon republicans of the combined g. eign policy will make his resignation possible is .denied as an absurdity, and [ very properly so. It ought to lie remem- I hered that Mr. Bayard entered the cabinet at the sacrifice of his presiden tial prospects because lie believed that he 1 could serve his party and the country ' better than in the senate. His foreign policy aims to protect American citizens and to uphold the honor of the govern ment, and lie w ill never resign from the cabinet unless he is left unsupported. Were that to happen, there is very little doubt that he “would take his hat and o h ome.” o. p. cannot so appeal to the ignorant voters and especially the negroes' with any hope of gaining a victory. Mr. Blaine is now engaged in a politi cal campaign which seems to he giving him as much uneasiness as did the last presidential campaign. In fact his actions are such as to lead to the expres sion of an opinion that the republicans of Maine have strong fears of losing the state at the coming fall election. Speak ers are being imported from every state in the union, and more money is being spent in the canvass now progressing than was ever known before. A very Now the judicious remark goes the rounds of the press that the president’s party should really, “really, you know,” be allowed the same privacy iu the North woods that other people may have, and then the news column will offset the remark by going: into details respecting every black fly, every tin can, old boot or new hat that can be caught or surmised about the camp or hiding place. Let Grover Cleveland have peace. Miss Ida E. Howgate, who has just been ap pointed to a clerkship in the treasury depart ment, passed the highest examination in her class, and was certilied for appointment by the civil service commission. She is the daughter of Capt. Howgate, the ex-disbursing clerk of the sigu&l sendee bureau. Miss Howgate is a grad uate ofVassar, and is now going to apply her ed ucation to the support of her mother. Mrs. Cleveland’s photographer is printing 500 pictures of the president’s wife every day and cannot supply the demand. This shows the effect of a veto of one of the president’s vetoes.
