LfTM Meetlig at floreyrillc.
At a meeting of the citizeus of

ted Prosidcnt of the meeting, and
W. E. Pope Secretary.
The object of the meeting was
stated by W. 8. Cooke, in a brief
speech. Colonel W. G. Myers, the

prcssivo of tho sentiment of the

bo repaid from a future tax, but
again urge them to accomplish this
groat work at an early day.
'Resolved, That tho Greenville
Times bo requested to publish tho
proceedings of this meeting.
Resolved, That tho meeting do
now adjourn.

W. E. Pope, Secretary.
Ludicrous Scene la a FulpIL
A South German paper relates
tho following: In a Bavarian town
of the most pronounced Catholic-
orthodoxy, tho priest pleached
lately against tho old Catholics
and related such horrible things
about them that his pious hearers
wore literally horror-stricken at
Old Catholic impictio. At last
tho preacher cried out : " Tho Old
Catholics are so vile that they will
all be cast into tho piUancl if what
I toll you is not true may (he devil
take me now on the spot!" His
excitement was so terrible, and he
so struck the cushion that the book
fell from it. Not far from tho pul
pit there sat an American, who
had a negro servant with him, to
whom he beckoned to take up the
book to tho priest, who, perhaps,
had never seen one of those sous
of Ham In his life. The negro at
onco obeyed, and as ho mounted
the lowest of the pulpit steps, the
clergyman repeated his wish that
tho devil might come and take him
if what ho said was not true. Al
though the negro went softly tho
preacher heard his footsteps, and
turning round, saw a black object
solemnly, steadily and surely ap
proaching him. He looked at him
with terror, and believing that he
would bo tho next Instant collared
by his Satanic Majesty, ho cried
out, with (rc'mbliiig voice, "It is,
after all, pOBsiblo that there may
bo good pcoplo amongst tho Old
Catholics." Turning then round
to see if the object hod disappear
ed, ho saw it still steadily approa
ching. Tlio perspiration hurst out
on his brow, and full of despair ho
called out : " Thore aro oven many
good people amongst tho Old Cath
olics." Thinking that this would
suffice, ho turned round, but what
was his horror to find that tho ob
ject was closo at haud. Imagining
himself in tho very grasp of Bccl
icbub, turning partly to tho negro
and pnrtfy to tho congregation, he
cried out: "May the devil come
and tako me if all the Old Catlro
lies aro not bettor than wo are 1"
Tho terriilcd priest fainted Ironi
tho fright, and it was only after
Bonio time Unit he recovered.
Tom Rnlkes, who won very much
marked with the smallpox, having
one day written an anonymous let
tor to Count d'Orsay, containing
tome piece of impertinence, closed
it with a wafer, and stamped it
with something resembling the top
of a thimble.' The count soon dis
covered who was the writer, and
In a roomful of company thus ad
dressed him : "Ha, ha I my good
Raikes, the next time you write an
anonymous letter, you must not
seal it with your nose,"
1 Clf Tf r Trick.
The follow iug clever trick was
recently played upon an avricious
French landlord by a poor engra
ver who had got into arrears with
his rent. " G ive me a little time,"
said
the tenant ; " I have discov
ered means of paying you soon."
"Bah!" returned the landlord;
"I should like to know how?"
"Look here," replied the engra
ver, taking a huudrcd franc note
mysteriously from a table drawer,
" that is my last piece cf work."
"Did you do t?" "Certainly."
" You, yourself, and.not the Bank
of France ? " No, it'a my own
work." " Will you trust me with
it for half an hour?" And the
landlord took tho note and hurried
off to the bank. There they as
sured him that it was perfectly
good, and finally changed it for
him. At ho hurried back to his
iodgor the poor man's head fairly
swam with Visions of uucountfid
wealth. "My gootf fellow," he
cried, on reaching the house, all
out of breath, "how clever you
are ! Why don't you make thous
and franc notes ? " . For the very
good reason that I've never seen
ono." " That ncod be no obstacle
Here is one. ' Copy it. 1 will be
back in a week's time, and wo will
share it." At the end of tho week
tho landlord duly made his appear
ance. " How does the noto get
on?" was Lis anxious inquiry.
" Your noto I why I have spent it
with two or three friends, you
vagabond I" majestically replied
tho engraver. " " Spent it I But"
"No noise, or I'll split." And
tho man explained -to his landlord
that he had taken him in, and that
the hundred franc note was per
fectly good. IIo wound up by ad.
vising htm to turn his avaricious
propensities in another direction
Too Goo a Joke.
It rained hopelessly. ?ho clouds
came down in sheets and 'bIuIccs.
Monsieur de II , an elegant of
tho "first water," found this sec
oud water too wet for him, Ho
was islanded under another man's
portico, and not a public vehicle
near. Suddenly round tho corner
comes a plain citizen, comfortably
housed under a protecting canopy
of blue cotton and whalebone
but, under this cnviablo umbrella,
walking alone. A thought seizes
Monsieur do II . He rushes to
tho citizen's side, and seizing htm
affectionately by tho arm, begins
tho eager narration of a touching
train of events. Not giving his
astonished listener thno to res
pond, ho hurries him along, sliar
iug his umbrella, of course, as he
goes, and clinging closely to his
side, and vociferating tho confi
dential communications till tlicy
reach tho boulevard. He stops at
a cafe, and then, for the first time,
apparently, takes a surprised look
at the face of his umbrella lender.
Overwhelming apologies had en
tirely mistaken the person tho't
it was his most Intimate friend
begs ton thousand pardons and
dodges into the iusido of a oofl'co
house. But tho fun was to bo in
tho telling of tho story. To a
convulsed circlo of delighted fel
low dandles, Monsieur do II
was tcllingof his advent tiro, when
by chance placing his hand upon
his breast, ho missed tho usual
protuberanco in his vest pocket.
The valuable gold watch was gono.
In his closo clinging to tho appa
rently plain citizen the gay joker
had hugged a pickpocket, and in
consequence was subsequently not
fond of this joke.
Tho Tcnncssco correspondence
of tho New York Herald gives
somo interesting details about the
origin of tho recent conflict be
tween the whites and blacks there,
from which it appears that the
trouble had its origin in a dispute
over a roast pig. About three
weeks ago tho colored pcoplo of
Pickcttsvillo had a barbecue. Jo
Hale, a farmer living in tho neigh
borhood, and .several other white
men, chancing to pass that way,
bought a pig from tho negroes for
their dinner. They ate as much
as they wanted, giving tho rest of
tho pig to a-negro they brought
with them. This fellow was hap
py for only a short time, however,
for no sooner had tho whito men
left than the managers of tho bnr-
becuo seized the rest of tho pig,
saying that it belonged to them.
Halo heard of this, and ho and his
friends returned and took tho pig
away from the negroes. In getting
back tho pig Halo usod somo vio
lonce, which exasperated tho ne
groes, but his friends Interfered
and coinpollod him to go away
with them. The point in dispute
was whother he had paid Tor the
whole pig or only so much ns ho
had eaten. The negroea took the
Utter view of the transaction, but
Halo enforced fonr-, ni ct

We do not see how tho President

has encouraged and is in many re-

in Arkansas. He acquiesced in all
the iniquities of the Kellogg ad
ministration, and shares with Con
gress the sin of having .turned
away fro n the entreaties of the
suffering State, even when champ
ioned by the eloquent voice of Sen
ator Carpeuter. A year ago lie had
great chance to do right, and in
doing right to redeem Louisiana.
But through hia Attorney-General
he spurned the prayers of the State.
The logical result of that selfish
apathy is written in the painful
history we print this "morning.
The revolution has bcon nourished
by the President, and it is his work.
We do not see how the President
can do otherwise. However much
he may sympathise with the revo
lutionary movement, and however
anxious we may be to overthrow
Ilellngg and all phases of Kci!cg
lomluation in other States, tho
Union must be preserved. There
can bo no union without law, and
there Is no law where we see suc-,1
ccssful revolution. In this case tho
moral right Is with Penn, the forms
of law with Kellogg. The followers
of Penn, those who belong to White
Leagues and other organizations,
made the mistake of revolutionists

waited. They should have trusted

New York Tribune.
The gnyernment-nf William Pitt
Kellogg In Louisiana Is one which
wo havo never been able to defend.
Tho Durcll decision which aided In
establishing It wnn uti out rag.
The conduct of tho Returning
Board which declared if elected
was dishonest. The taxation since
1872 has been arbitrary and op
pressive. Legislation has In hun
dreds of coses been n shameful
farce. Districts hs''c been repre
sented, by men ho neve; sav
them. The small revenue gleaned
from tho Impoverished people has
been diverted to Improper uses.
New Oilcans is proslinto. The City
Administration Is penniless. Real
estate in the metropolis Is worth
nothing In tho present comlilion of
affairs; no cue will buy it. The
prominent local banks have re
cently failed. Laborers nhd salar
ied employees alikeare paid in scrip
worth 30 i'ents on the dollar. Many
streets are desolate. Whole pages
of newspapers ore filled with names
of delinquent taxpayers. Negroes
and whites in some sections of the
State aro In danges of stnrvation.

Neitherparty now claiming pow
er in Louisiana can help her to
prosperity or peace. Ono is com
mitted to tyranny and corruption;
the other to a vlndialvu policy of
ostracism and intimidation, to new
