pardonable fondnes* for handaome
riot hr*. He can tdrnply wear shirt* and
i 1 1, ok good In them, too, that wouldn’t
do for you or I. Whv. If we were to
put two of these »hlrt» on and wtart
down Mulberry street Colonel Wiley
would have a Jury enquiring Into our
mental condition.
| But that Isn't what I started out to
Isay. It la this: When Jim Barnes ram»
to Sagra he came over to company A'a
I headquarter* and took a seat by my
desk. While I was busy writing he en
gaged several men in pleasant, famil
iar converaatlon. These several men
happened to be pretty hard caws; all
good soldiers, hies* you, hut illiterate,
and one of them. In particular, u vio
lent, desperate man. To see them was
to think what a great leveller the ar
my la. The city swell and the country
hayseed both make good soldiers.
There's no difference. Besides, w’ en
you dress 1,00 men In canvas uniforms,
blue shirts and put campaign hats on
them the swellest look very much l!Ue
the rowdies and the rowdies strongly
resemble the swells. I have found out
that readln’, 'rltin' and 'rlthmetlc is not
all there Is to learn. To have acquired a
knowledge of these Is of course valua
ble here as elsewhere, hut a man may
know all this and then not know It all.
Example: The first sergeant of compa
ny A. pretty well educated gentleman,
while at Sagua, met an Ignominious de
feat at a large practice and at the
hands of arnan who could not tel! you A
from B. I couldn’t help hut thinking
that In an engagement this man would
probably serve his country more Intelli
gently than I would he able to. How
ever there is consolation In the thought
that I can probably learn to shoot as
well as he before he could learn geony
etry and trigonometry.
Well, there are good things said ab
out us. How’s this for a bouquet tossed
In the immediate vicinity of our dainty
Trilbies? Col. Freeman of the regular
army stated at Esteron that this regi
ment f3d) had seen harder and more
dangerous service than any regiment
Chiba, we have. too. We were.

The most sensible of the negro leaders
ae* and reel that thia remedy Is neces
sary. It will do away with all political
friction, and among those negroes who
are really desirous of la-coming good
citizens, und who afe anxious to secure
and retain the respeqt of their neigh

will lie anxious to educate themselves
and their children.
Naturally.when no political campaign
Is on hand, we arc apt to .view these
matters lightly; they lose, as It were,
the color of Importance. Nevertheless,
the Ignorant and corrupt vote Is an cle
ment calculated tf> bt'.ng almut trouble
when trouble Is least expected. For
that reason, and for other reasons, we
believe It Is the duty of the present
general assembly to provide for the
culling of a constitutional convention.
There are other matter* for such a
body to deal with; hut the ignorant ne
gro vote Is the inoHt important of all,
und Should be dealt with promptly.
We must despise no sort of talents—
they all have their separate uses and
duties— all have the happiness of man
for their object-they all improve, ex
alt and gladden life. Sydney Smith.
