Thursday Morning. Seft.. 7, 1882.
Hypocracy is shaking hands with
your neighbor, and when his back is
turned, kicking his dog in the ribs.
The old German proverb is worth
practicing: “Honor the old, instruct
the young, consult the wise and bear
the foolish.”
A poor man may do an act that is
positively criminal, but a rich man
can never be worse than “imprudent.”
Things aie not what they seem.
A boy of six and a girl of two at
Ballardvillc, Neb., are mated for mar
riage by their parents, who have signed
an agreement that the wedding shall
occur in 1898.
A boy near Trinity, Cal , found a
black bear in the woods and led him
home by the car supposing the beast
to be a dog. Bears are strange creat
ures. Bo arc California newspapers.
A St* Louis gill sixteen years old,
pretty as a picture and having a voice
as soft as cuirant jelly, cau split the
panel of a common pine door with one
blow of her fist. She is not engaged.
Mrs, Jesse James, the widow of the
notorious ou.law, arrived in Huntsville
on the 30lh nit., in answer to a sum

diluent against L'ick Little, charged

Will Carlton, author of “Betsy and
I are out,” “Over the Hills to the
Poor House,’’ etc , is an awkward,
plain, unassuming Michigan country
man. Another evidence that the qual
ity of the mind is not to he judged
from the otuward seeming of tlie man
Ini tlie palmy days of the illustri
ous Hut Lovengood he was the happy
possessor of a favorite hull “pup.”
Sot being extremely anxious to train
Ins “pop” to he brave, persuaded his
“daddy” to fasten a hear skin on him
self, get down oir his Hands and knees
and test the pluck of the “pup.” The'
old man soon prepared himself, and
Was in position when the “pup,” alter
ve v y little encouragement, seized the
old man by the nose. Hut, highly
pleased at the bravery displayed by
his “pup,” said, “Stand i*, ‘dad,’ if
you '‘an; 1 know its rough on you, hut
its the making of the ‘pup.’ ”
An organization has been perfected,
in Atlanta called the “Ben Hill Monu
ment Fund,” and $859.00 raised in
two days. Ben Hill does not need a
monument to remind the people of hi.-
noble deeds, for they will live forever;
but his memory dcscives a Monument
that will cast its shadow over Blinker
Hill, and stand til! Georgia shall cease
to be ;tn empire. . We know that the
people of Dade want to give to this
grand cause. Subset ipt ion will be re

Stephens Sp* aks.
Hon. Alexander H. Stcpliens'spoke
in tiro Opera House in Atlanta on last
Thursday night. Below we give a
few extracts on subjects that we think
will most interest our readsrs:
But they ask me “how about the let
ter you wrote to Dr. Felton four years
ago?” I begin by stating this: If I
did write I letter countenancing oppo
sition to the will of the Democratic
party 1 did wrong, and I do right now
in retracing my steps. That is all.
But I did no such thing intentionally.
Dr. Felton ran for congress in 1874.
He ran against the party nomination.
I knew nothing of the nature of tire:
contest. I was sick a-bed for the most
of the time. I did not know Dr. Fel
ton then. 1 bad never met with him
that I was aware of, and the first thing
I knew he was up there running as an
independent democrat. He professed
to he a democrat, hut he had some
complaint to make about the nomina
tion in his district. I knew nothing
about it, and never said aught to en-,
courage him. In the next congression
al election he ran again against the
nomination ot his party. He got
elected by a large majority—upwards
of 2,500, I think, and, as I supposed,
embracing a majority of the democrat
ic votes of the district, 1 had served
with him in congress during his second
term. He stood up to the democracy
there as true as the needle to the pole.
He maintained caucus action not only
for nominations, but for legislation. *
Take the case of the Potter resolu
tions. Dr. Felton voted with the party.
When I asked the house to give me
three minutes to speak—l thought in
three minutes I could show them the
mischief that was fraught in it. Dr.
Felton stood with the unanimous party
except myself, disallowing me three
minutes to speak, under the gag of the
previous question. I thought that
looked like he was a pretty good organ
ized democrat. * *
IJi.it tf * the letter to Dr. Felton
referred to. He was running for a
third term. This was in 1878. He
had a very large majority, as stated,
at the last election before, and I did
think that the democrats up there
ought to let him alone, or nominate
him, I wrote a letter to a young friend
who asked my opinion. I told in that
very letter that 1 believed in nomina
tions and organization, but the main
object in nominations and organization
was to ascertain the man who was the
popular favorite* auil here there had
been two elections, aud the distiict had
returned him twice, and by such a large
majority at the last election; I thought
if I was in that district 1 would ad
vise them not to oppose him—just let
him run; that he was acting with the
democratic party, lie acted with the
democratic organization in tiro state of
Georgia, except io Lis district; he acted
thoroughly with it in Washington;
He conformed to it mi.re thoroughly
than I did in obeying the caucus dic
tates in matters of legislation. And
under those circumstances, I .advised
that he should not he opposed in his
district. Mr. Hill and Genera! T dOlli bs
did the same tiling. Did they think
they were eneouragaing disorgaluxa
tion, or encouraging independents? Did
they become independents by giving
suclltadv fse? Now, t hat is tlie ex out
lire letter that 1 wrote mi 1 tint so
milch is said about; and as 1 under -
stand it, Dr. Felton reads liuit letter
now in a way to make the people be
lieve it is a recent letter 1 have written
in his behalf, and claims me as an in
dependent because of my having writ
ten it
Well, some say, “what about tire
Casey letter?” 1 will tell yon. When
I gave * hat vote against the Pottci
resolutions, every paper except two in
the district raised the hue and cr\
that 1 was not a Democrat. And .-.tej s
were taken to get delegations to go to
the congressional nominating conven
tion and rule me cut of thepar'y. Dr
Casey was the eitaiiman or the <1 is
met executive committee and cal! and
the convention of the party, lie wrote
to me. I told him 1 had no objection
to the convention I toll him lire
1 ieved in conventions, and nominations
were, for the most part, the proper way
to concentrate the public choice. 1
told him I believe in the majority rule,
but i said, and this is the substry.ce
of in “As tlie attempt is being made
to itile mo out of the Democratic party,
because ot my vote on the Potter reso
lutions, ami l give you notice that if
they do it 1 shall plead to the juris.'.ie
tiuu and will appeal from them to the
true democracy of the district;” 1 did

not intend to be thus Unchurched, and,
as I said in my first speech in Augus
ta, no power of that convention, or
any other, could ever drive lne out of
the Democratic party. I told them,
“It can’t be did!” That is just what
I said: “It can’t be did!” 1 told them
while the Savannah river runs from
the mountain to the sea, and the sun
rose in the east and set in the west,
ahd while the eternal fires of earth
burn, so long I could never be diiven
from those great fundamental essential
principles in which I was reared : which
are now taught and inculcated by the
democratic party of Georgia. I went
through my district and canvassed for
the convention. The result was I re
ceived the unanimous nomination suve
one in ono of the fullest conventions
that ever assembled in the distiict. In
the meantime the Potter resolutions
were abandoned by the party north and
south, showing that I was right in op
posing their passage.

Ono of three plaintive negro melodies
like “Old Black Joe,” that touch th<-
hearts of nil. Its subject is a faith
ful old-time servant whom freedom Ims
not used kindly, and from whom the
memories of “Ole Marster” and the
“Ole Plantation’* call forth the pathet
ic lament:
“I am getting old and feeble, and my hair is
turning gray,
And there is r,u me left on earth to care for
me.
And the hoo-cake in tho cabin they grow
scarcor every day,
Since I lost my wassa when dey set we
free.”
A song for the South, but it will
