The True Version of What Mr.
Cleveland Said About Dana.
The New York World published,
and sent out to the press of the coun
try, the other day, a highly sensation
al interview, alleged to have taken
place in ex-president Cleveland’s of
fice in New York city, in which Mr.
Cleveland is reported to have said
many harsh, not to say coarse, things,
about _the editor of the Sun, Mr.
Dana. Jt didn’t sound or read like
Mr. Cleveland, though he certainly
has ample cause for calling Dana
hard names. In an interview, with
representative of the Atlanta Journal
he gfves the exact language which he
wrote out upon which the column in
terview is based. Referring to
recent article in the Sun.
Mr. Cleveland wrote out the follow
ing for publication, and this only :
“I have not seen the article you
refer to and if it appears nowhere else
but in the Sun, there is not the least
chance of my seeing it. Of course
the entire thing is a lie without the
least pretext to excuse it. I judge from
what you say that the venerable edi
tor of the Sun supposes that he has
at last hit upon a subject which can
be used to annoy me. In this ho is
mistaken. He must be his own judge
of social decencies and proprieties,
am not sure that he should, nt his
time of life and his apparently pecu
liar mental condition, be molested in
his amusoment.” •
The World has not, as yet, had the
manliness to correct the grass injus
tice done Mr. Cleveland in the alleged
interview.

That salt business did not pan out
very well. In this connection we
may refer to the fact, that tho im

wife had met and passed another wo
man, and that the former looked
back to see the style anu fit of her
dress,
It would seem that New Orleans
ought to afford a good field for the
Mormon rccruting agents, for thcro
is a hopeless disparity in the numbers
of the two sexes, there being 15,198
more females than males. In tho
country parishes, however, the males
ore ia excess. In sixteen states of
the Union the females are in the ma
jority. In Massachusettes they out
number the males by 66,000.—Ex.
Savannah 1b threatened with nu
merous trunk lines of railway. The
old town is getting out of the woods.
A city which can command one mil
lion bales ot cotton and handles more
naval stores than any city in the
world is likely to attract lines
of railway. Savannah is Georgia’s
greatest seaport city, and all will re
joice in her prosperity. .

Some beautiful tributes were paid
tho other day in the house, to the
memory of the late Sunset Cox.
The following speech was made hy
J. F. Harris, a colored Republican
member of the Mississippi Legisla
ture, in reply to a speech opposing
the erection of a monument to the
Confederate dead:

stand here in considerable pain.
Perhaps it was not prudent for me to
come. But, sir, I could not rest
quietly in my room, sick though I
am, and allow this discussion to pass
without contributing to it a few re
marks of my own. I was sorry to
hear the speech of the young gentle
man from Marshall county. I am
sorry that any son of a soldier should
go on record ns opposed to the erec
tion of a monument in honor of the
brave dead. And, sir, I am con
vinced that if he had seen what I saw
at Seven Pines and in the seven days’
fighting round Richmond, the battle
fields covered with the mangled forms
of those who fought for their country
and their country’s honor, he would
not havo made the speech. When
the news came that the South was to
be invaded those men went forth to
fight for what they believed, and they
made no request for monuments to
commemorate their brave deeds and
holy sacrifices. But they died, aud
their virtues should be remembered.
Sir, I went with them. I, too, wore
the grey, the same color that my mas
ter wore. Wo stayed four long years,
and if that sad Avar had gone on till
now I would have been there yet. I

The Victory In Rhode Island.
The importance of the democratic
victory in Rhode Island is not to be
measured by the limited geographical
area of that little commonwealth. It
should not be forgotten that she is
one of the New England states, and
even nmoDg New England states em
inently conservative. Such a state
does not wrest herself from her tra
ditional moorings without grave rea-
And when she does so we may
rest assured that the effect is due to
causes potent ns well as persistent. It
seems to us that the significance of
Rhode Island’s change of front
would bo hard to over estimate. The
forces that have moved her, we can
not doubt, are far from merely local.
They are nt work upon the rest of
New England—upon the whole coun-
tiy. Summed up in a word, tho re
cent election in Rhode Island |ays to
the country that the G. O. P. has lost
its usefulness and is without further
mission in American politics.—New
York Commercial Advertiser.

- The Scales Fall.
A citizen of Maine recently came
South. He was so well pleased that
ho bought property and settled in At
lanta, Ga. His testimony is as fol
lows : I came down here to visit my
daughter, and was delighted with At
lauta, the climate, the people, and the
business enterprise. Since coming
South, ray view on the race question
have undergone a great chance. We
Northern folks do not understand the
situation and cannot until we come
South. The average negro in Georgia
fares better than the white laboring
poor man up in Maine. In a very
sensible editorial the Providence Jour
nal declares that the North is growing
very tired of the sectional outbreaks
in the Senate and will soon call a halt
on such men as Hoar, Chandler and
Ingalls, who take advantage of every
debate to make flings at the white
people of the South.—Sunny South
Flattery is one thiug—and a bad
thing too—and praise is quite ano
ther. “Praise unmerited is flattery.”
It is not yours to give, nor another’s
to receive, and is a shift and a lie.
True praise is like holding out
strong hand to the weak; for all who
arc praise worthy arc modest; never
thinking “more highly of themselves
than they ought to think,” and seldom
holding themselves at their real value.
A word of kindly praise is like a cup
of cold water to the thirsty. A word
of encouragement scatters fears and
puts new strength in the fainting
soul. Withholding merited praise
is keeping back another’s due. Praise
is a flower whose fragrance is lost
when the leaves are withered. Flat
tery is only a coarse, rank weed, bear
ing a gaudy, unperfumed flower.
