“ POXEiI JACK.'
Interview Betwear| an Arkansas Carpot-
Bagaer and Attorney-Genera!
Williams.
Asa .tule tbe carpet-bagger o!
the South lias numbered am ug bis
! <1 siinctive t'uits, the rankest rows
j ardice and personal poltroonery. He
has been adroit at manipulating Un
votes and moulding the opinions of
the, colored brother. He has aflec
led- religion and philanthropy. He
has managed to present h ; jtywekf-ter
the gaze of tbe p opie of tlie Ifortii
in the attitude ol a mar.yr. Bu
he bus always been a non-combatant.
A vvliifl'of smoke sends him bustling
into the nearest cu-tom bouse. A
half dozen hoys out on a fox bunt
teirify him imo calling for ‘imre
troops.’ And so on. This is the
sort of carpel-bngger we find fn
Paiterson or tMoses, and Kellogg aud
Spencer. But the Atkansas carpet
bagger is a different breed altogeth
er.—He affects neither religion nor
philanthropy. A hardened snn r,
lie glories in his and praviiy aud scotls
at hypocrisy. Bui lie has nerve and
is game. There is McClure, Poker
Jack, they call him ; a perfect type
of the Arkansas carpe hagg'-r. The
best illustration 1 can give of Mc-
Clure’s charac er is by describing
an interview between him and Ai
iorn-y General Williams lasi winter,
alter the administration had acted
in favor o: Baxter.
McClure came to Washington
with his blue eyes full of blood.—
The opinion of the Attorney-Gen
eral had struck him in the region of
ilie diaphragm, and to say he was
mao would be to draw it very mild.
He went up to ihe department ot
justice and demand and to see Wtl
-1 arns. That lunctionary received
him.
••I am Cni f Justice McClure of
Arkan-a-,’ ha began, “and I have
read your opinion on the case re
cently ilecid and Joy the President.—
Now, sir, I wisTio say, that pa
pers on .winch you opir.s
ion, and which you ref -r to as hav'
ing bet'll, certified to by t he oleik ol
mv couf'r, are e tie r forged or gar
bled.” _ '
‘What do y -u siy, sir f” asked the
s.oumled AttoriteyaGeneral.
He had been a'Ceusiumed 10 tire
behtfVi’dr’of the lackey on the part
of the triidittonal carpet-bagger, b o
here was one p ! aying the bully. Ii
was incompreheiisible to tlie Atior-,
iiev'G'nerak
‘‘l say, sir,’ replied the imperlur
a‘de McClure, “that I believe those
thos: papers areeith- rfo'g dor that
new matter has been interpolated
intothera; and I say further, sir.
that the reputation of yourdepirt
ment and the known character of
yourself, inclines me to ihe belief
that frauds have been etiae c i in
your office, and by your instigation
or connivance.’
<l \Vhat do you mean, s : r?'’ gasp
ed ihe breathless Williams.
“I mean jnst what I say,” replied
McClure, siill as'co >1 as are frige ra
ter, “and I want to see. ihe orig n tls
of those popers which you claun to
have'been certified to you 'by the
clerk of my court.”
“I haye sent them to the Senate,
sir" said Williams.
"You talk, sir, like a man that is
lying,” said McClure. “In fact, sir,
1 believe you are lying. Not 10 pm
too fine a poitu to it you are a bar.
sir. Orginal papers are never sent
o ihe Sen ile or the House, except
by special demand for them. Tbe
r- solution of the Senate in regard to
these papers called for copies and
copies wi re sent. You do not wish
me io B>'e the originals, sir, fir far
that I will del'ct .the hue polaft ns
that hive been perpetrated iu your
office. I believe you have been
brought up in ibis matu r, sir.”
At this, Williams turned and left
the ro mi. His chief clerk then
came up to McClure and said :
“I regard your remarks as a per
sonal insult to myself.”
“Go,” stid McClure. “You don’t
know tbe difference between an in
sult and an apology. There is not
a man in tins department who is ca
pable of resenting anything. . Don’t
talk to me at all, sir.”
Then Poker Jack stroked his long
bearci, walked up and down the room
a few minutes and then took his
leave. Well, that is ihe sort of car
pet, haggars the people of Arkansas
have lo deal with. Men who know
neither Beruple, compunction nor
tear. They mean io revolutionize
the (Slate over again. They are pro*
ceeding about itiu a very systemat
ic way. And they will make.a deal
of trouble before they are disposed
of.— St. Louis Republican.

Good Advica io Christians.
1. Sec that your religion makes
you a better son or daughter, a bet
ter clerk, a better student, a better
friend, a belter workman.
2. Do not set yourself up a* a
standard. Sh in all coisoriousups-'.
Remember that each one ‘to his own
Master st indeih or falleth,’ and not
to you.
3. Let nothing keep you away
from ihe Saviour. Never be lempt
e I io stay away fro n him by unbe
lieving doubts, by past neglect or
present fear, by anything. Be more
intimate with him than any earthly
friend.
4. Never rejoice in your own
strength. A child looking up to
Christ is stronger than a strong man
armed. Be resolu e in looking to
him alone for s'rengih.
5. Show by your life what grace
can do. There is no language in the
world so eloquent as as a holy life.
Men may doubt what you say, but
they will believe what.vou do.
Finally. Do not be discouraged it
you fad in
perfect, what need would you hive
of a Saviour.
A well known metropolitan pun
ter mentions that on one occasion an
old woman from the country came
into the printing office with an old
Bi ble in her hand. *1 want,’ she said.
‘ihat you shou'd print it over again.
It’s getting’ a little sort of blurred,
and my eyes are not what they was.
How much would you ask to do it ?’
‘Fifty cents ’ ‘Can you have it done
iu hulfau hour? Wish you would
—want lo be getting home. I live
out of town.’ When the old lady
went out, he sent around to ihe
American Bible society and purchas
ed a copy tor fiifty cents, ‘L >r’s
sakes a in tssy !’ exclaimed the old
lady,..when she came to look at it;
‘how good you've lixed it. I never
seed notin’ so curious as you priite

A woman claiming to ba Belle
Boyd arrived in Atlanta and adver
tised tliai sh : would leciure to the
people of that meek and lovely

was an imposter, because the genus

Confederacy, wigdi expatiated dria
