The roceut elections is a rebuke

refusing to carry out the will of
the people, Mr. Cleveland, how

THE EDITOR AND HIS SNAP.
An editor who died of starvation
after making Dr. Tauner’ashamed of
himself, was being escorted to heaven
by an angel who had been sent out
Ur that purpose.
“Mav 1 look at the other place

“Easily,” said the angel,
®o they went below and a' irroish
ed around, taking iu (he eights.—
The angel lost I rack of the editor,
and went aronnd Hade* to hunt him.
Ho found him sitting by a furnace
fanning hiiuaelf and gating with
rapture u|>n a lot of people in the
fire. There wa J a Fign on the for*
nace which aaid: “Delinquent sub
acribert."
“Come,” said the angel, “we
mat t be going.”
“You go on,” said the editor*

* Lee Wise, colored, who r.-sides on
isr. Wilburn Williams plantation,
was made very drunk last Monday
night by a yonng white man. Lee
srv< the fi.llew threatened to shoot
him if lie did not drink a pint of
whiskoy. After drinking the whis
key Lee went to Larkin, purchased
some goods and,remained there nn-
7 o’eiok. When he departed he
told Mr. Hardman that he was
going lo see a negro by the name of
lJordon. By this time Lee was in a
weaving way. 110 stopped at Mi.
Isaac David’s house to inquire of
him the way to Gordon's. All the
family had retired except Mr. Da
vid who was preparing to retire in
a very rapid manner. Mr. David
decided that Lee was bent on mis
chief and being of a vary nervous
disposition be told his wife and
I daughters prepare for flight as he
intended to make a „break for tall
timber, andjnftcr they had donitfd
their clothes, he told them to folloiV
him and started off at a 2:40 gait,
with his>shirt collar flapping in the
breeze,’ bareheaded, hair sticking
out like porenpino quills, one shoe
i off. He fled in this manner until
they renebed the home of Mr, Jesse
Adams and told hint tbo horrible
news. Mr. Adams became very mjnoh
frightened and told him that his
I rifle was out of fix, lie told him to
go and get Mes rs Yarbrough & Kid
ley to go with him, so he went and
ar used them and they went back
with him. After searching for some
time they decided Lee kad departed
for some other region. When the
boys heard ol it the next day they
did not let Mr. David see much peace.
We learn that Mr. David has selec
ted a low place in the woods where
the wild birds sing their notes so
gsy, to which ho retires daily and
cruelly kicks himself and wondors
what made him act like a dad-blas
ted fool that night.
