A well-known gentleman called
on the Widow Guilia. During an
interesting conversation—interesting
because the widow hud reason* f„r
suspecting that the gentleman was
•‘bout to propose—Mrs. (Jullin’s lit
tle boy entered the room.
••Davy,” said the widow, “can’t
you speak?”
“Gan if I want to.”
“Speak to Mr. Gray.”
“Don't want, to right now; will
after awhile,”
“You are a fine little man,’* said
the visitor; “how old are you?”
“Five years old.”
“Oh, you are not that old,” said
tlie widow, with an air of embarrass
ment.
“Tlmt’s what yon said, any
how.”
“Davy!”
“Said it some time ago ”
“David!”
“Before he got to coming here.”
••Oh, you are such a young pest.

. Blaine Not a et teamin'*
Two republican leaders who ar<
very close to Mr. Blame are reported
as having said that he is not a cundi
date for the Presidency, and that his
name will not he presented to the
next national convention of his party
unless there is such u demand for
his nomination that it would nor
be wise to resist it. It will be ditfi
cult to make any one believe that
Mr. Blaine is uot now doing all that
he can to make it impossible for his
party to nominate anyone else. His
aim is to keep himself prominently
before the country, so that when the
time for making a nomination comes
the rank -and hie of his party will fa
vor him.
Mr. Blaine is uot a statesman in
any sense of the word, hut he is an
Able, brilliant man, and an ext-er-ding
ly adroit pulitici m. He has succeed
ed in pushing Imm-elf to the front,
Where men who have a much bettor
cluiui to be considered statesmen
Have been pma u d by utmost unno
ticed. Mr. Blaine’s admirers, of
course, consider that ho is a states
man, but they would be puzzled to
point to anything that ho has over
suggested or done which indicates
the possession oi statesmanlike quali
ties.
When he was in Congress in- made
smart speeches, hut lie proposed no
great measure, and when ho was in
the Cabinet he proposed a foreign
policy which tickled the fancy of a
few. bm wnicl was regarded ns im
practicable by tho really ablu men
of his party, and which, perhaps,
he never meant should be curried
into effect. Since ho has been in
private lire he has written a loiter
proposing that the surplus in the
Treasury shall bo distributed among
the States. It does not command
tho serious uttontion of anybody,
either in or out of Congress.
When it is said that Mr. Blaine is
a fine orator and a orilliant and mag
netio man, evervthiug is said for him
that can be said. That ho is not a
man of great breadth of thought, and
that he is so much of a demagogue
thut lie is ready to distort facts to
■strongtheh ins arguments, his speech
es in Pennsylvania plainly show*
His statesments respecting the wages
of negro luborers at the South have
been proven to be without founda
tiofT, and yet he keeps on repealing
them. Doubtless he has known all
along that they were not correct,
[’hey answer his^urpose, however,
because they alarm the white went
ingmen at the North, und tend to
make them believe that their only
way to save themselves from
grinding poverty is io give the Re-
publican parly their united uud en
thusiastic support. If Mr. Blaine
does not ruiieh tlie Presidency it will
uot be because he has not tried to
by every avenue which Ins ingenuity
could suggest.—Savaunuh News

Cotton Beed.
There is a heated discussion in the
southwest ubout cotton soed. It ap
pears that an oil mill monopoly bos
fastened its fangs upon that section
aud tho farmers aro kicking against
it. A lovol-bcaded newspaper man
suggests that the planters can control
the matter by applying tho seed to
the land insleud of selling it to the
monopoly. They will thus bo .inde
pendent of the price of cotton Med.
The Pioayuno shows how it was an
unmixed good when it was discover
ed that cotton seed could bo muds
into oil which could bo put to many
uses and be sold at a good price. Tho.
farmors at once began to deny their
lands tho valuable aid to regenera
tion which tho seed can yield. An
other oditor says that numbers of
plan tat ions in his immediate knowl
edge have been almost ruined by tne
suicidal polio? of selling the cottqn
seed. There was borne excuse for it r
