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

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.

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. ;

“Tiie disloyal New York Tribune de
nounces ‘southern fire-eaters’ with great
energy. 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

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.

The fact that republican attacks upon
Wll.L IIE LIKE ITS
It is said that Blaine represents “man
ifest destiny" so far a.- the republican
presidential campaign is concerned, and
that the republicans have no choice of a
candidate. 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.

IT appearing to the Court by the petition of
Wm. L. Tillman, accompanied by the notes and
mortgage deed, that on the fourth day of May,

or bearer, twenty-four months after the date
thereof, Eighteen Hundred and Eighty-eight
Dollars ana Twenty-two Cents, with interest
from date at eight per cent per annum, and if
said note was not paid at maturity, ten per cent
attorney’s fees for the collection thereof, for
value received; and by the other of said promi-
sory notes the defendant promised to pay to the
S laintifF, or bearer, thirty-six months after the
ate thereof, Eighteen Hundred and Eighty-
eight Dollars and Twenty-two Cents, with interest
from date at eight per cent per annum, and if
said note was not paid at maturity, ten per cent
attorney’s fees for the collection thereof, for value
received; and that afterwards, on the day and
year aforesaid, the defendant, the better to secure
the payment of said notes, executed and deliver
ed to the plaintiff her deed of mortgage, whereby
the said defendant mortgaged to the plaintiff all
that tract or parcel of land situated on the west
side of Broad street in the city of Columbus, and
in said county and state, being about twenty-five
feet in front on Broad street and running back the
fall depth of said lot, and known as part of lot
number sixty-five, with all the improvements
thereon, upon which is situated Store House

ther appearing that said notes remain unpaid;
It is, therefore, ordered that the said defendant
