After a triumphal tour through the
Tar Heel State, where he was received
with great enthusiasm and listened to
by vast crowds, the next vice-President,
Gen. AdlaiE. Stevenson deadened over
the line into the Old Dominion and into
the good old city of Richmond. He
made a speech there which set the democrats
wild and after it he was tendered
a grand ovation. While in North
an admirer presented him with the
left hind foot of a church yard rabbit
for good luck, and now there is no
doubt at all in the minds of the superstitious
that the general will preside
over the Senate after the of next
March.
Gen. Wbavek, the third party's candidate
for president, was rotten-egged at
Macon, Ga., while making a speech from
a hotel balcony. His wifu and others
were on the balcony and got caught in
the shower. Such conduct is most rep
rehensible and the perpetrators ought to
be punished. There is no Jaw which
compels a man to listen to a demagogue
orate, and any person is at liberty to
Beek some other place if he does not
wish to hear his torn foolery. Besides
that kind of business gives the Yankees
another chance to dilate on plantation
manners and abuse the Southern people.
There is not much sickly sentimentality
among the Finlandera. A woman
murdered her husband by giving him
strychnine in order to obtain his life
insurance and a heartless jury was un-gallant
enough to say she must haye her
head cut off. An appeal waB taken and
the court instead of coming to her rescue,
approved the sentence and added
the additional punishment of having her
right hand cut off a few days bafore her
head drops in the basket. In this country
she would have been let off with a
short term in prison and pardoned by a
tender hearted governor before oven that
was served.
Gen. Weavkk didn't mind the
that be got in Georgia, so much,
but wheu the phowor of decayed hen
fruit came, he throw up the sponge and
hla other encacements in the
State. He says there is no free speech
In tho South, but he exonoratea tho
Confederate soldiers from showing him
any disrespect. They treated him everywhere
with consideration.
The Mt. Sterling Sentinel iB attempting
to scare its delinquents into paying

Yes, Smith, of theMt. Vernon Signal,

who, in hunting for large game, run
across a mephitis mephitica, not saying
however, that you .are that kind of a

you charge that we aro angry. We
make it a rule nover to get mad at an
idiot, a crazy man or, as Sut Loving-

Yea, verily. Oh you're a bad man from
Bitter Creek and as you read your crushing
article to applauding friends, don't
you feel proud and brave, and more of a
David than ever? We know you do
and we are glad of it. You are a good
fellow In your way and we like you, but
please don t tmnk we are tnau every
time we crack our whip to "make ze

can get it out of you every time. And

The secretary of war has ordered all
the buildings to be torn down on the
government reservation at Fortress Monroe,
which includes the Higeia and
Chmberlain'n new hotel, within 15
days. There aro also many residences
and much railroa I property on the
grounds, amounting in va'ue, all told, to
four or five millions of dollars. It is
said that this action is taken because
the Bottlers would not agree to pay for
certain sewerage improvements ordered.
Strenuous efforts will be made to have
the order withdrawn or modified, as it
seems it should be considering the great
amount of interests involved.
A fifth presidential ticket has been
thrust on a lone sufferiug public. A
haniifull of cranks met at Washington
and nominated Mrs. Victoria Woodhull
Martin, of "Xew York and London," for
president, and Mrs. Mary Stowe, of California,
for vice-president. Mrs. Martin's
unenviable reputation, made while
living in the former place, may secure
her the vote of a certain class of people,
but her ticket will not command eyen a
corporal's guard of fools.
The prohibitionists ought never to
dabble in politics, they make Buch poor
politicians. They do not nominate jnen
lor their fitness for office, but simply because
they are enthusiastic in the cause.
The fireman at Avery's plow factory, in
Louisville, has been nominated for Congress
in that district, who, perhaps, has
not the first qualification of a lawmaker
even if be had the education. But then
one man is as good as another to lead a
forlorn cause.
