AsFaraa a Democratic Administration Csa Protect
1 htjn-A Chaese Will Have No Effect Upon
1 hem???Patriotic Word* From the Next
President of tbo United State*.
Boston, November 22.???In thecour??eof an
interview with a representative of the Boston
Globe to-day, President-elect Clevoland in
speaking of the business and manufacturing
enterprises of the country and the effect of the
change in administration on those interests,
said: ???It goes without saying that the demo
cratic party is made up of n^rchants, business
and workingmen and everybody in it certain
ly desires good times and realizes that all peo
pie must be prosperous to insure that
result. We have 55,000,000 peo
pie, almost boundless resources,
hundreds of the strongest financial institutions
in the world, thousands of enterprising mer
chants, the most skillful manufacturers, and
tho most intelligent farmers and working men
on tho face of earth. Now, surely the
?? country with these characteristics has every
qualification for a solid onu ^permanent pros
perity. It will be my aim and the aim of all
associated with me in tho conduct of affairs at
Washington to give the people of tho United
States a safe, economical and conservative gov
ernment. The fact that so many business
men and manufacturers and working men
voted with the democratic party in this elec
tion shows that they were not afraid of a
change in administration. Tho democratic
party in its Chicago platform meant what it
aaid and said what it meant, and
will carry out tho promises
of that platform which relates to the business
interests of the country. The moat important
thing is the restoration of confidence and a
determination to forget partisan heat and ex
citement and to devote our lives to the things
which tend to the substantial welfare of the
country and oil of its people. In this event
every man should feel that he has a part to
perform. 11
Fall River, Mow., November 22.???'The publish
ed report of the probability of a cut-down of ;i0
per cent In the wages of operatives before January
1st, Is pronounced by the manufacturers to be
premature. It rests solely upon tho statement of
the overseers in one mill, and is not vouched for
by any manufacturer, meaning
those who coutrol tho fixing
of operative???s wages, As a matter of fact, the
print doth market Is in a better condition add
the outlook is more promising than for several
months past. It is the general feeling that the do-
proreion in the cloth market has reached Its low
cat and that the present improvement be perma
nent.

THAT r.KUr.L FLAG AGAIN.
Mayor Goodwin Receives Another Letter
From California and How He Replied.
Mayor Goodwin Tuesday roccivcsd another let
ter from California asking about that tele
gram which was sent from Atlanta
when Cleveland???s election was assured saying tha
a rebel ling bad bet-u holstod on tho stato house
Tho letter camo from 8an Bernardino and con
tamed a copy of the telegram and un editorial
Tho letter read:
???San Bernardino.Cal, November 12.???Dcar8lr:
Ic Cloud please find nn artlclo which appeared in
the Los Ang^lio daily of 11th inst., relativo to
demonstrations mudu in your city on receipt of
tho news of Cleveland???s election. I publicly pro
nounced it a lie. Will you please do me tho kind
lier* to wrlteme if J am correct.
Yours in the Interest of truth,
H. It. Dabuv.???
Tho telegram was:
???A REPEL FLaO HOISTED ON THE GEORGIA STATE-
HOUSE. .
Atlanta, Ga., November 8,-Tho legislature was
adjourned to-day and an old rebel flag was run up
on tho atatchousu amid the greatest excitement on
????o side and glee on the other.???
The editorial read as If the man who wrote it
was mad when he penned It:
???When the new* of uivvoland???s -alleged election
reached the Georgia confederate patriots in legis
lature osiembied at Augusta, they promptly ad
journed and run up a rebel flag over tho capitol
building. The fact it deeply significant, it Is a
powerful commentary on the spirit and latent
pui poses of the southern supporters of Cleveland,
it tells unmistakably tho story of their hones,
their alms and their animus. But Cleveland Is
not elected.??? . , ,
Mayor Goodwin has sent an emphatic denial to
all these letters.

Senator Gordon Accepts the Responsibility
on Behalf of the Democracy..
From tho New York Sun.
Gaudy roosters, little brooms and other emblems
of victory adorned the hats of throngs of Irvlug
hall democrats that marched Into Irving hall last
evening to the music of ???Rory O???Moorc.??? General
John B. Gordon waa greeted with great cheering
and an upheaval of hats and brooms, llesald that
the democratic party understood, in its hour of
triumph, that it must stand or fall by its futuro
retotd. It welcomed the responsibility, and It
could bo trusted, a rep ublican objection to It wa
that it wa* supported by the solid south.
???Why cannot the south be trusted???? asked Sen
ator Gordon. *T?? it uot as much interested in tho
peace and prosperity of the country as other sec
tions? It u said we rebelled. 1 would prefer to
mt it was a con lint ot theories, honestly enter
tained and mauiully fought tor. Call it what yoa
will, wc fell out slid fought it out, and there it
should have ended. I Applause.] It would have
ended then and them If the spirit that animated
both armies at Appommattox had not been per
verted by the politicians. If Abraham Lincoln
bad lived, the union would have been completely
restored sixty days after Lee'* surrender, and we
would have been spared the long, black crucifix
ion of reconstruction. The union Is established
forever. Slaverv is abolished, and the south would
not reestablish It il it could do so by a stroke of
ihp pen. This is our country and wo mean to stay
tn ft. We Intend to help you to defend and
take care of it.??? ICheera.] .

WONDERFUL. NASSAU.
A Singular Island Where Vegetation Never
Dies and Grain Fields are Unknown.
Jtchoboth Sunday Herald.
It Is curious to think that, in a country where
vegetation never dies and everything is per
petually green the people have never seen a field
of grain or a t a) Mack; have never watched the
earth turned over and under by a plow; never
heard the click rf a harvester or the hum of a
threshing machine; never listened to the mur
muring of a brock or watched the flow of a river.
Thou tbinpv are unknown in Nassau. No
grain Is raised then-; there H no- field big
enough to make it worth while for one thing, and
where the land bar beeu cleared aud broken and
made productive it l> too rich In its capacity to
raise more valuable tnlnga. There Is very little
grass. Here and there are little patches of it, but
aimo*t always where it lmd been sown and care
fully cultivated All the flour used has to be im
ported. As most ct tne horses come from America,
so their bay and fee-?? is taken from here too, ex
cept such green **uiT ** they pick up incidentally.
Our modern farm machine*, being unnecessary
there, ar# unknown abd unheard of.
There are no river*, aud in traveling over almost
all part* of the is and oi New Providence I do not
remember to bavt- *e**n eveu the smallest brooklet.
But it is any tbitg but' or cn, anything but def
late. Take a fi??- d the e tnat is nothin? bnt a solid
mast of coral roex and limestone, aud if let alone
for a year or two ft becomes so covered with all
sorts of vegetation that no man could tell whether
the bottom t't it was sand or dsy, or
rock, cr what, if land is not care
fully ctilUvater all the time it soon dis
appears beneath ti e unwtu of trees and bushes.
A barren rock in It-* than two years becomes a
flower garden, if Itt alone It is a common saying
that the land bad m b* tilled with a pickaxe, and
trees and veg*u* lea let cut with crowbars.
There is good clay toil on some part* of the Island.
Seme of the pines pp'r fields were of rich red clay,
strong enough in r??i*o (train or anythin? planted
in the m. But they were exceptions. Only here
and there la red day found, and all the rest la
rock. _
Smallpox ra Canada.
Kingston, Out.. November 19.???Rev. Father
Fleming, of Tweed, ??utea that smallpox prevails
In seven famille* in that village. The people are
terrified, and many are leaving the place. On Sun

HUMOMOUS.
The South Africans Unerring Aim,
From ihe Hour.
The extraordinary proficiency o! the Dutch
Bo.-rsol South Africa In marksmanship makes
tl cm dreaded enemies. Au Englishman who has
ieen hunting among them lately sayi that he saw
one fire hastily at a bustard which was flying
about two hundred yards distant and send a rifle
ball through its body; but as this did not wholly
stop the bud, which flapped rapidly along the
around, the Boer fired a second time aud cut off
head. British soldiers dread with good reason

Squelching Hia Hurrah,

???Who???s elected?' asked his wife, with a danger
ous gleam in her eye.
???Why, Cleveland,^of ..course. ??? Hurrah! tigsr!

???Well,??? responded the good woman, ???now that

A Norther.
From the Marshall, Texas, Messenger.
An old Texan, beiug^asked by a_stranger to de
scribe a norther, said:
???I???ll tell you what it]!s,;*trang<*r, a norther puts
in the quickest worked anything you ever i*w.
You see that lake*down there (pointing to a beau
tiful lake about a mile distant); last spring, in the
latter part of March, I waa^flibiug in the after
noon; the smi was shining and it was as warm
almost as the middle of^Nummcr. The fish were
jumping up all over the lake, and I thought I
smelt a strange smell that of ton precedes a norther.
I immediately turned away from,.the lake aud
looked toward tho northwest, and I saw a small
uio i-uiuu i uimu auu iuokcu at me isao. wnen,
to my astonishment, tho lake was frozen over and
many fish were lying on top of thelco. Tbo dsn
bad jumped up and the lake had frozen over so
quickly they could not get back. Stranger,maybe
you think that Is stretuning things a little, out
i'll tell you a norther can beat auy thing but light
ning, and it can hurry that up mightily.???
An Unlucky Sneeze>t a'Weddlng.
From the Union Mcdlcale.
A most Inopportune dislocation oi the jaw is
recorded at a recent wedding. It seems that during
tbo performance of the ceremony tho bride sneez
ed so violently as to dlslecato her jaw at the criti
cs] moment when sho should have pronouncod
the solemn out. As sho was unable to articulate
the word It was found necessary for the wholo
party to repair to a surgeon before the ceremony
cohid be computed. ???
Tho Versatility of Nebraska Girls.
From the Queen Bee.
A beautiful cowgiriyilves near Murkel, Taylor
county, Neb. She owns some stock, which she
personally looks after. At a rocent roundup her
dazzling beauty and graceful horsemanship were
wonderful to behold. A yearling broke from tho
herd, which tbree cowboys failed to confine,wheu
tho beautiful gtrl.dashed out after it, roping on
the second circle, and pulled it by the.horn of her
saddle into the herd. The boys shouted, wept and
havo never ceased to love.
John Sergeant, of Montrose county, it may be
added to this, has a flftccn-ycar-old daughter, Miss
Kellie, who has been bred In the saddle, and has
been accustomed to rldo with her father all over
his range. In addition to the yonng lady???* grace
ful horsemanship. sho can handle a lariat and
branding iron and can ride a bucking horse with
as much skill and grace as any cowboy that has
been on tho range since boyhood. Nellfo Sergeant
is dowered by her father with one third of tho
lncruuoof his herd, and when she chooses to
marry her husband will bo a cattle king.
