We extract the followibg para¬ graphs from and editorial that appeared in the Southern Al¬ liance Farmer a few weeks before it “flopped” to the third party. We are sorry that Editor rwin did not stick to this sound and sensible advice, and hope that he will get back to his first Love before the October elec¬ tions. Wise nun make mistakes but are quick to correct them: “The great power of the alliance is in its secrecy and uon-partisanism. It is a great reserve force in the nation when used in the proper way that will check robbery and abuse in al 1 parties. The alliance can- ot bo an annex to any part ;, lgl .oust use its powee as a grou t balance wheel in correcting the evils ihat are extant in all political oagauizations. To commit the order as such to the democratic republican or peoples’ party would be fatal to our influence, 't would put the world on notce and commit the order unquali¬ fiedly to follow the policy of the partp so endorsed. This would )e parisan in the fullest degree, and would plae thee orde in a fight for spoils of office. The great needs and demands of thep°ople would be lost sight of just as they have been in the past. “But let the order stane for prinsciples, for home and fire¬ side. Rise above party and par tyism and fight for the grand movement that is destined to wrest this government from the hands of plutocracy It is only by holding the order aloof from any party that we can accom¬ plish this end by using our balance of power to bring all parties to our demands.

His recitation was from The Southern Alliance Farmer, (a paper I did once like) which he kept spread on the tabh in frout of him. He did branch off from his pa¬ per once, and said that free wool, free bagging and cotton gins, would do us no good. Greaf S ott, we farm rs are so ignorant!

Without any great effort on Arthur Dunbar’s part, he was enabled to catch a glimpse of the speakers, for the seats of the poreli projected beyond its con fines, and the figures were sitting in the broad glare of the moonlight. One was undoubtedly Leon d'Estre Alio; the other, a dark, swarthy, for¬ eign-looking man about forty years of age. They were conversing in the French language, with the usual reck lessness of persons speaking their own tongue in a foreign country, but were reckoning without their host, for Arthur Dunbar understood every word they said. “And you think the young American in your road? Well, we must get rid of him,” the older man was saying. “Get rid of him, uncle! You speak like the villain in a cheap novel. Xo, no! Lurking and kidnaping are things of the past, and i do not suppose you wish to try your hand at murder.” “Bali, no! But surely you and I havo brains enough to allure him away. '4* biL I -r-7 rar L, 4 m w o : m m \ UNCLE ANT) NEPHEW. You are quite positive that he is still In the neighborhood?” told "Certain. One of the laboi-ors me yesterday that ho saw him that morning in a skiff out on the river.” “It is very aggravating, certainly; but bow did Miss Urabame get to know that he had not gone away?” "Why, she was with me when the stupid fellow blurted it out.” "1 can't for the life of mo think why, with your opportunities, you have failed to win her affection. Von have had better chances than the Yankee,” "Yes, hut you don't know Kate Gra¬ hame. Why, man, I would as soon make love to an iceberg. .She is defi¬ cient ia appreciation—my best bovemofs fall flat; my compliments are wasted, my :;Ueutions arc despised. If 1 recite poetry to her, she yawns; if I am hu¬ morous, she weeps; if I am sentimental, she smiles. What can one do with such a girl? I confess that I would a thou¬ sand times rather pay my addresses to the pretty little rustic, the daughter of the house.” “Ah, you have been fool enough to do so. l’este! I see it all now—no wonder you have failed.” "Uncle, I assure you—” “See here, Leon Jobard, I know your shallow character too well to trust you. Imbecile that you arc, do you suppose your Aunt Helene gave her hard-earned savings to deck you out like a nobleman in order that you might play the gallant to a farmer's daughter? When I told her that .Sir Harry Grahame was yet living, and that Lis girl. Kate, would after all be a great heiress, and she sug¬ gested that you should capture the prize, I gave an unwilling consent to the proposition. Now, young men, if I have any influence with your aunt, you shall pack off back to your place be¬ hind the shop-counter which you never ought to have left.” "Pcstc! my uncle, there is no reason¬ ing with you: the girl is adamant, I toll you. Moreover, I was not the first hi the field. This American—” •*P«l)aw! we will arrange that mat¬ ter, if you think there is a chance for you. What so easy as to—tonne res! I have an idea—an inspiration—what sort of a person is this Dunbar?” "Oh, a great, strong, hulking—” “1 mean as to his disposition. Is he one who is likely to l-e nlive to his own interests, or some soft fellow over burdened with an exacting conscience?” “I cannot see what you arc driving at; but 1 should imagine that he is not over well off, and probably not incora moded with scruples. It would be something unusual, wouldn't it, to find a Yankee who was not open to a smart deal?” “Vou are rig’ t. Now, Loon, 1 don’t wish to hurt your feelings, but I've no faith in you. This Arthur Dunbar is made of stronger stuff; and. as half a loaf is bettor than no bread, if I cou 1 see ray way to dealing with him, I'd 1 r all for substituting this smart Yankee for my graceless nephew.” of the “Eh, what! and !ea\'c me out swim altogether? I won t stand that.” “You will have to follow the pro¬ gramme just r.B your aunt and 1 ar* range it. Bat. don't cry out till von are hurt. V, e mu.-t not count our c.‘ii< I: cr.s lx-forc t!icy are hatched. First it ^ToSSr^^l’hL f business, to profit If ^ . g rorn G Open a aW(J transaction, there will not Ik? diCicultT in coming to tcrrnbJ out, muier nny circumstances wo shall want you to stay at the farm to help things along, and, if you choose to flirt with the farmer’s daughter, I have no objection. She won't be a great catch like Kate Grahame, but she will probably have a snug little dower, which with what you get from the Gra haine enterprise will set you up in the L-orld.” “Then success to yov.r plot, my gnl lant uncle! Count on my entering heart and soul into your new plans, for Nellie is a good deal move to my taste than your whimsical heiress.” “Well, don't bo too hasty in your sat isfaction; it all depends upon what wr. can do with Dunbar.” "Bah! I am sure of him, uncle. Ho is young, he has tlje world before him; he is no fool.” "Then, you must stir ymuself, Loon. Be up with the lark to-morrow morn¬ ing and find his address. 1 shouldn't bo a bit surprised if he didn't show up nt the hotel he w»3 stopping at in Chert* sey.” the “I will go there the first thing in morning and make inquiries,” the young man cried, exultant r.t the turn events had taken. "No, not till I come up to the farm. On second thought, it will not do to take any steps until I have talked mat¬ ters over with your aunt. So, though the hours are golden, you can enjoy your beauty-sleep to-morrow morning, my nephew,” Francois said, rising; “and that you may have your wits about you, you had better be going, for you have a long walk before you. An rovoir, mon enfant.” Arthur Dunbar waited until their re* ceding footsteps died away and then crept noiselessly into his own apart¬ ment, where he sat for a full half-hour, trying to collect his distracted thoughts. There was evidently a base conspir¬ acy at work, of which Miss Grahame was the victim, lie knew little or noth¬ ing about her history, and consequent¬ ly the allusion to Sir Harry Gralmme'a existence failed to arouse his interest. All be could make of it was that Kate, who he had been told by Leon was de¬ pendent on Miss Unldevstone's bounty, was heiress to a large fortune, of which fact she and her friends were ignorant! that Mile. Cnmpigtum, the swarthy stranger, and Leon d'Estveville, whose proper name was .Inbard, and who wuS an assistant in a store, v.. , c in collusion to rob her of her inheritance. lie chuckled to think that there was a like¬ lihood of including him in their designs Arthur Dunbar was a man of quick resolves, lie would beard tins lion in his detl. Little did Leon D'Estreville tHnk as he plodded his way back to the farm¬ house that the victims of ins small mal ice and his worthy uncle were oil* taring into an alliance offensive and defensive. For the crafty sea captain, quite undisturbed by Artlm.'S declarat ion of having overheard his del¬ icate little communications to his wor¬ thy nephew, when he found that the young American had money and was sufficiently interested in Miss Grahame to invest it in the discovery of Sir Har¬ ry Graharae's fate, disclosed all he knew of the sad story, and wound up his confession by a declaration that if he was man enough to pay the cost, of the expedition he would transfer to him his valuable allegiance. in search “And you will go with me of this ill-used man?” “Well, sir—ah, yes—my instincts of humanity prompt me to render you every service in my power to rescue the unfortunate friend of Miss (Ira* hame, provided, of course, that 1 do not lose by my activity.” ratified. Thus the compact was that Arthur Dunbar found time even¬ ing to run down to the farm and tell Kate what he had resolved upon, aud that gentle maiden all a-trcmbling at the glorious news poured forth such a melody of thanks that the young American, when he bade her adieu.
