BLACK JACK'S BOOM.
Fi-.mi 1 lio wild's of Jackson County cotnoth
forth aawart Erypiian.
There is thunder in his larynx, there is fury
in his eye;
And the vtgo: and the volume of his voice
transcend description.
And the seared air shrinks ntnl trembles as
his boom foes whizzing by.
As, with black flag felly flaunting, sweeps the
seas Sv.Oir -‘r n i*y s'ersa;;'.
And the merchant's fraughted galley folds
white wings and yields to fate;
t>o, when Logan shoots Ins voiee off, when ho
shakes his mane of horse-hair.
Cowers down in tears and goosoilesh the
affrighted delegate.
As the lion, short of rations, his majestic mo
lars gnashes,
Makes a raid npon a sheepfold, makes a meal
of kids or goats.
So John Alexander Logan twirls his horriblo
mustaches,
Watehingfor the scalps of Suckers that with
hold from him their votes.
There is none can stand before him when he
elevates tils dander;
There Is none so buxom in his speech, so
strong among “the boys;”
There is none can howl so terribly as bold
John Alexander,
The Wild Wolf of Jackson County, the Black
Prince of Illinois.
On the head of Fitz John Porter he doth dili
gently hammer;
He works the Southern outrage mill with
never-tiring crank;
His eves are bent on the G. A. It., his foot’s on
English grammar,
His syntax wobbles woefully, but his lan
guage’s lush and rank.
They adore him down in Egypt, they revere
him in Nebraska,
The current of his mighty yawp flows on to
the Golden Gate;
He is feared in Alabama, he is famous In
Alaska,
He's the bulwark of the Stalwarts, lie’s the
darling of his State.
Yes, though Brother James Gillespie Blaine
endeavored to deceive him,
Though the milk-and-water young reformers
sicken at iris name,
Claim agents all do swear by him, and they’ll
never, never leave hiui,
While he shovels out the surplus, while the
soldier vote’s his game.
From Cairo* to Chicago men are plunged in
fear and wonder
As they hear the roar and rattle of his ey
clone-spreading boom;
And they see a look like lightning and they
hear a voice like thunder;
. “'Ware Block Jack El Mahal Logan! Can
didates, behold your doom!”

Abandon Sectionalism.
Those who are in the habit of Blink
ing for themselves will consider it
neither edifying nor assuring to look at
,t lie prevailing phases of the canvass for
candidates for next Novem
ber. It is a matter in which high quali
fications are but little sought, while ad
vantages jn candidates seem to be the
ruling consideration. It is no longer
who is the hes( fitted and most worthy
statesman, but whose nomination will
give us the best chance to win. Just
about the last thing one hears of is any
fair consideration of the qualities of
tried and proved ability and probity in
statesmanship. If it were a horse-race
the tendency would he no greater so far
as looking to availability is concerned,
•than it is now in this question of an
election for President of the United
Slates. And it is none the less deplora
ble that this state of things is not con
fined to the Democratic party or to the
Republican party, but it is found alike
in both parties. How certain candi
dates will run in certain localities, or
which candidate can furnish most
money or command the largest fund
for the campaign, is held as a strong
consideration in his favor. This style
of canvass is placing the country on a
low plane, and the mere act of bringing
forward such men for such an office is
an affront to the intelligence and dig
nity of the people which should be
strongly repelled.
The only remedy for this state of
things is with the people. If they are
willing to tolerate it, then there are
none but themselves to blame. There
assuredly is a great need for reform,and
the kind of reform needed is that which
will turn the bad out and put the better
in. The demand for reform is witness
to the fact that the bad are now in. It
is entirely through the corrupt influ
ences of the Republican party that this
state of things now exists. It maybe
argued that the leaders of the Demo
cratic party consider it the best policy
to “fight the devil with fire,” but there
is a trite saying that “honesty is the
best policy.”
The Democratic party alone can ac
complish this reform, for it alone is free
to do It. For nearly half a century it
governed the Republic, and in all those
years there is nothing in its history of
which to be ashamed. Its errors were
jc venial; its virtues the virtues of the
• people it represented. The Democratic
W P a . rt y roust come back to the broad
principles which -actuated it in former
years if it hopes to claim the respect,
esteem and confidence of the people,
that such a great party should have.’
“A government of the people, for the
people and by the people,” is what is
demanded and is what should prevail.
To this end the Democratic party
know no North, no South, no
Fast, nor West, but place this entire
l nion upon one common level. It
can not afford to be sectional. It can
not afford to ostracise one section of the
country for fear of offending another
section by showing that consideration
to which it is justly entitled. The
blessings of the Government, like the
dews of Heaven, should descend alike
upon all the people governed. The
party which falls short of this fails in
the performance of its duty and is un
worthy to be sustained by the people.
In this wild hunt for Presidential
candidates, either for the first or sec
ond plao, the South is conspicuously
ignored when it comes to naming men,
as much so as the fituess and statesman
ship is disregarded That this* should
be the case so far as the Republicans
are concerned, is a matter of no aston
ishment. But the South hadicause to
expect a different state of things from
the National Democratic party. The
war has been over for nearly twenty
years, and though the life-blood of the
National Democratic part}' flows in the
South, it meets with no recognition in
National conventions. If the South can
not afford a superior man to other sec
tions, then let it stand on merit. The
people are growing restive under this
ostracism, and the demand for recogni
tion is increasing. They are tired with
being made cat’s paws, and who can
tind it in their heart to blame them?

Republican Testimony.
Hon. John F. Dezendorf, a prominent
Republican, has testified with such truth
and force before the "Sherman Investi
, gating Committee as to confound Sher
i man anti Lapham, and to lav still more
I discomfiture upon the already heavily
; laden shoulders of the surviving wavyrs
I of the red-flannel shirt.
That well-worn garment is about to
be cast aside forever, and the people of
the whole counliy have learned al last
that it was colored, not by Southern
dead, but by Northern dye. The de
ception is exposed—Yankee cochineal
is not negro life-blood.
Mr. Dezendorf told the story of out
rages in Virginia, as have been perpe
trated’by Coalitionists, in a way that
I was at once concise and direct. He
showed how the alliance of Arthur with
Mahone had caused the influence of the
Administration at Washington to be
used for the basest purposes, and how
the name of the I’resident of the United
States had been bartered to win voters
and secure spoils. He described, as
General Wickham had also described,
the persecution of the colored people
wito dared to vote against Mahone and
his gang and their sufferings in beitalf
of what they believed to be right.
It was a well-known fact throughout
Virginia long before election day that
these white renegades had preyed upon
the fears and prejudices of the colored
people so greatly as to induce colored
preachers to warn their llocks against
voting; for anybody but a Mf.honeite;
that tney had caused resolutions to be
passed in the colored people’s churches
j providing for the expulsion of anymem
| ber who would not follow the corrupt
I and unscrupulous Ross; that they had
j gone so far as to send their party work-
I ers into the home of every colored man
j who was suspected, and to persuade his
wife that if her husband did not vote for
Mahone’s candidate she and her chil
| dren would be made slaves again, and
that if her husband refused to heed these
threats she must t urn him out ot doors
and separate from him forever. To
such depths of degradation did these
base, cowardly, false-tongued renegades
descend iu order to keep office and de
spoil the people.
Does the country know now what is
| the “Situation in Virginia?” Do
! Radical place-seekers want to know
more of it? Let any man hear the
! testimony that is given day by day be
' fore the committee for whoso appoint
ment Mr. Sherman was so imprudent as
to ask. How many ambitious Repub
licans who have been living on section
alism, and who have hoped to live upon
itfor years to come, are cursing now
the ill bird that has llown from Ohio to
perch in the United States Senate.
But sectionalism is stale. There is
not, and there should not be in it any
substance longer. There are brighter
‘and better subjects of interest for the
people than war-hate, which should,
and must, be forgotten. The Danville
investigation has shown to all unpreju
diced men how hollow are the pretence*
of the bitter, unpatriotic seekers of
place, both Radical and Mahoneite.
The testimony of Mr. Dezendorf is
another link in the chain that will fet
ter Sherman and his fellow South-haters
to the rocks that they have sought for
refuge, but that they will soon find are
far out in wilds where politicians are
not wont to roam.
The absurdity of Sljprman’s perform
ance is bringing upon him every day a
shower of ridicule.— Richmond State.
A Case of Cruelty.
Considering that Mr. Blaine is pos
itively not a candidate, the success of
his friends iu getting a promise from
him that, in case he is not nominated
at Chicago, he will cordially support
the party candidate, is a case of great
cruelty. It drags him from his literary
retirement to make promises which, t”f
he is not a candidate, are absolutely
meaningless.
Another wrong that is being done
him is ransacking the country for mi
nute details of his early life,his religions
training and ecclesiastical connections.
What have all these things to do with a
man who is not a candidate? They
have actually raked up an old lady who
remembers him as the boy “Jim.” He
was so shy that he would not enter a
parlor if any one were there. His pas
sion was. reading and he never was
without a book. When site first saw
him he was so overcome with bashful
ness that he walked backward stum
j bling against a flight of steps, fell over
and scattered his armful of books in
j every direction. She does not want to
say that he was homely, slovenly, sim
ple, gawky, awkward, careless.of his
appearance. So she says he was “ just
at the age when boys can not be made
to look nice.” Later on he was “a*
well dressed as any of the young men.
and was beginning to give promise of
developing into the fine-looking gentle
man he is now.”
Of course when a man is a candidate
he must expect this vivisection. That
is one of the peculiar pleasures of a
“political campaign.” It is akin to the
enjoyment of the Romans when the
gladiators slit each other up with their
swords, or were dissected piecemeal bv
the wild beasts in the arena. But when
a man is not a candidate this sport is
mean, brutal, cowardly. If Mg. Blaine,
instead of claiinino- the sweet pleasures
and rewards of a literary life, hateered
for the Presidency and was “setting up
the pins” for Chicago, it would be a
fair and legitimate thing to call his at
tention to his qualifications for the office
even in the “big boy” stage; his studi
ous retirement; his awkwardness; his
unpromising manners and deportment
which developed “into the fine-*looking
gentleman he now is.”

How We Live.
The world little imagines how largely
it is indebted to the laborious researches
of scientific medical men for mai y of
the most imnortant truths relative to
human health, happiness, and life As
popijjutimi increases and the value of
food is enhanced, the knowledge whi h
chemistry lias elicited is becoming more
and more valuable in a practical point
of view.
Some kinds of food are more nutri
tious than others, and if it should be
found that articles which are cheapest
have the most nutriment and give the
highest ability to labor, thej* knowledge
becomes money to the pOor. Tables
vary, but some of the general result/are
as follows: l ne pound of rice prejUred
for the table, gives eighty e : ght perfent.
of nutriment, and consequently a rela
tively proportional ability to labor, com
pared with other art cles of food. A
pound of beef, costing fifteen cents, j
gives only twenty five per cent, of nu
triment. Vet countless numbers of the I
poor in New Fork strain a point daily j
to purchase beef at fifteen cents a 1
pound when they could get a pound of i
rice for one-third of the amount, the!
rice, too, having three times as much !
nutriment as beef, making a practical!
d fi'erenee of 800 per cent., aside from
the fact that boiled rice is three times :
easier of digestion than roast beef, the [
rice being digested in about one hour,
roast beef requiring three hours and a
half. There is meaning, then, in the
reputed fact that two fiiths of thehuman
family live on i ice.
We compile the following table for '
preservation, as being practically and

PNEUMONIA PREVENTED.
Oyster Bay, N.Y., April 11, 1883.
I believe I have been saved from a terri
ble illness by Allcock’s Porous Plasters.
About a month ago I was attacked with
a violent pain in my chest, accompanied
by a fever and great difficulty in breath
ing. I apprehended pneumonia, which is
so prevalent at present; I went to bed and
applied one Allcock’s Plaster between my
shoulder blades and two on my chest. In
an hour my breathing was much easier, in
two hours the pain had left me, and the next
morning I awoke perf ctly free from fever.
I went about my business as usual, and at
the end of a week took the plasters off.
For the last ton years Allcock’s Piasters
have been used by my family with the best
effect in colds, coughs, and pain in the side
and back. E. B. Sherwood.

I first saw what a very fine remedy Ai.L-
Cock’s Porous Plasters were when they
cured my wife of asthma, and when I was
attacked with pneumonia, some three
months ago, I first thought of Allcock’s
Plasters. By the advice of my physician
1 placed two under each shoulder-blade
and two on my chest; in a few hours I
breathed easier, the congestion of the
lungs was much less, the icy feeling down
my spine and in my back vanished; the
plasters soon made me so warm that I
out in a profuse perspiration, and in
three days I was well and attending to my
affairs. I ought to say that I took two
Brandreth’s Pills every night for over a
week, which I think helped me a good deal.

A Popular Fallacy.
Many people tbink that Rheumatism can
not be cured. It is caused by a bad state
of the blood which deposits poisonous mat
ter in tbe joints and muscles causing lame
ness, stiffness and swelling of the joints
and excruciating pains. K»lney-\Vort will
certainly effect a cure. It acts on the Kid
neys, Liver and Bowels, stimulating them
to a healthy action, purifies and enriches
the blood and eliminates the poison from
the system. Go to the nearest druggist,
buy Kidney-Wort and be cured.

case was regarded as hopeless. All who
knew the circumstances said I must die.
Finally, my wife induced me to try a bot
tle of DIL DAVID KENNEDY’S FAVOR
ITE REMEDY, which, she had somewhere
beard of or seen advertised. Without the
slight st faith in it, but solely to gratify
her, f bought a bottle of a druggist in our
village. I used that and two or three bot
tles more, and—to make a long story short
—I am now as healthy a man as there is in
the county.
“ Since then I have recommended DR.
DAVID KENNEDY’S FAVORITE REME
DY to others whom I knew to have suf
fered from Kidney and Liver complaints;
and, I assure the public, that the FAVOR
ITE REMEDY has done its work with a
similar completeness in every single in
stance, and I trust some other sick and dis
couraged mortal may hear of it and try the
FAVORITE REMEDY, as I did.”

Your most valuable medicine (Swift's SpF.ctrrcl
has done me so much good that I fed like saying this
for the benefit of (hose who suffer like I did. I was
poisoned by poison oak. and saw not a weildayfor
6tx years, until I used Swift's Specific. In the six
yean-1 used almost i very kind of medicine, but none
had tbe desired effect. After using six bottles of
Swift's Specific I am restored to perfect health —
with not a sign of that awful poison left!
