The Two Mrs, Tuckers. BT LOSE TERET COOKS. loa can make the fire -while I put the hoss oat," said Araosa Tucker, as he opened the back-door of a gray house, net on top of a treeless hill, tracked here -and there -with paths tlie geese had mado.in their daily journeys to' the pood -below-, and only approached at the hack by a lane to the great red 'bam, and" a rickety board gate set' between two posts of the rail fence. This was "wealthy Ann Tucker's home-coming. She' had married Amasa that morning at her father's house in Stanton, a little village twenty miles away from Peet's Mills, the town within whose wide limits lay the Tucker farm, and had come homo f with hini this early spring afternoon in the old wagon behind the bony horse ""that did duty for.Amasa's family carriage. Mrs. Tucker was a tall, thin young woman, with a sad, reticent face, very silent and capable; these last traits had been her chief recommendation to her husband. There was no sentiment about the matter. Old Mrs. Tucker had died two weeks before this marriage, bnt Amasa wis "fore-Landed," and knowing his mother could not live long had improved his opportunity a and been "sparUn" Wealthy Ann Minor all winter, in judicious provision for the coming event of his solitude. He had thought the thing all over, and concluded that a, wife was cjaaaper than a hired girl, and mcepermaietat ; so when he found this alert, firm-Jointed, .handy girl living' at her 'TOcle'p, who was a widower on a great farm the other side of the village, Amasa made

her acquaintance as soon as possible and proceeded to further intimacy. Wealthy liked better to work -fair her uncle than for a' step-father with six secondary ohildKn, but she thought it would be better still to have a house of her own; eo she agreed, to. marry Amasa Tucker, and this was the home coming.

She opened the door into a dingy

. room wrtn an open fireplace at one end, a window on the north ard one on the south side, small, paned with old, green and imperfect glass, and letting in but just enough light to work by. One corner, to the north, . was petitioned off to make a pantry, and a door by the fireplace fed out into the woodshed. The front of the house contamed two rooms. One opened into the kitchen and was a bed room, furnished sparsely enough ; the other was a parlor, with high-backed rush-bottomed chairs against the wall, a round . table in the middle, a fireplace with brass andirons, and fire-irons, a family Bible on the table, and a "mourning piece" painted in ground hair on the mantel, Green paper shades and white cotton curtains, a rag carpet fresh aa it came from the loom if its dingineas could ever be called fresh and a straight-backed sofa covered with green and yellow glazed chintz, made as dreary an apartment as could well be imagined. Wealthy shut the deer be- ' hind her quickly, and went to the abed for material to make her fire. It was almost sundown and she was hungry; but she found only the scantiest supply of wood, and a few dry chips of kindling. However she did her best, and she had brought some provisions from home, so that she managed to lay out a decent supper on the rickety table, by the time Amasa came stamping in from ihe barn. He looked disapprovingly at the pie, the biscuit, the shaved beef, and the jelly set before him. "I hope ye aint a waster. Wealthy," he growled. "There's vittles enough for a township, and the ain't but two of us." "Well, our folks sent 'em over, and

yon so neeu to eat era. she answered, cheerily. "I a'nt goin' to; don't you break into . . that jell, set it by ; sometimes or nuther somebody may be a comin', and you'll want of it." Wealthy said no more; they made a supper of biscuit and beef, for the pie also was ordered "set by." She was used to economy, but not to stinginess, and she excused this ex- - tgeme thrift in her husband more easily, for the reason that sbe had always been poor, and she knew very well that he was not rich, to say the least. But it was only the beginning. Hard as Wealthy bad worked at her . uncle's, here she found harder burdens ; she had to draw and fetch all the water she used from an old-fashioned well, with a heavy sweep, picturesque to see, but wearisome to use; wood was scarce, foe though enough grew on the hundred acres that Amasa owned, he grudged Ha use. ....... . ' rat, down more than is reelly needful," heaid, when she urged him to fetch her a load; "wood's alien growin'when ye don't cut it, and a makm'for lumber; and lumber is better to sell, at sight, than eord wood. Ye must git along somehow with brush; mother used ter born next to nothiu'." She did sot remind him that his mother was bent double with rheumatism, and died bf the fifth attack of pneumonia. Wealthy nerer wasted words

Then there were ewhtreows to milk,

the milk to strain, set skim, churn or make into cheese, and nothing but the

simplest utensila to do with, a ciotn held over the edge of the pail served

for a strainer; the pans tneni selves

were heavy wood, the pans ojd and some of them leaky, the holes stopped with bib of rag, often to be renewed;

the-milk room was in the shed, built against the chimney that it might not freeze there in the winter, only aired by one small slatted window; the churn was ah oldfwooden one with a dasher, and even the "spaddle" with which she worked her butter was whittled out of a maple knot" by Amasa himself, and was heavy aljd rough. Then belonged to her the feeding of the pigs gaunt, lean animals with sharp snouts, ridgy backs, long legs and thin flanks, deepset eyes, that gleamed with malice and never-satisfied hunger. Wealthy grew almost afraid of them when they clambered up ontlie safta-of-theperr m' Ihei? fury for food, and flapped their pointed ears at her, squealing and fighting for the scant fare she bad brought For Amasa underfed and overworked everything that belonged to him. Then there were hens to look after the old'fashioBed barn-door "creepers,'' who-wanted food, too, and yet catered Tor tfiefneervwj in great measure, and made free with barn and woodshed for want of their own quarters, and were decimated every season by hawks, owls, skunks, weasels and foxes, to say nothing of the little chickens on which crows and cats worked their will if they dared to stray beyond the ruinons old coop contrived for them by Aniasa's inventive genius out of sticks and stones. Add to nli this the cooking, washing, baking and sewing, the insufficient supply of pork, potatoes and tough pies, the "biled dinners" whose strength lay in the vegetables rather than.the small square of fat pork cooked with them, of which Amasa invariably took the lion's share; these accumulating and never ceasing labors all wore day by day on the vitality of Mrs, Tucker, and when to these were added an annual baby, life became a terror and a bnrdeu to the poor woman. But what did Amasa er.re? He too worked "from sun to sun." . He farmed in the hard old fashion, with rude implements and no knowledge, but "My father done.it afore me, so I am agoin' to do it now; no-.use talkin'." O&evby one the. ailing puny children Were hud away in the little yard on top of the sandhill, where the old Tuckers and their hal f-dozen infants lay already ; rough incloaure, full of mulleins, burdofeks and thistles, overrun with low blackberry vines and surrounded by a rail fence. It had been much handier for the Tuckers to have a grave-yard close by than to travel five miles to the Mills with every funeral ; and they were driven by public opinion in regard to monuments; they all lay there like the hearts that perish, with" but one slant gray stone to tell where the first occupant left his th-ed bones. Two children of Wealthy 'a survived. Amasa and Lnrana, the oldest and youngest of seven. Amasa, a considerate, intelligent boy, who thought much and said little, and Lunula, or ' Lury ' as her name was generally given, a mischievous, selfwilled little, imp, the delight and torment of her little worn-out " mother.

Young Amasa was a boy quite beyond his father's understanding; as soon as he was old enough he began to help his mother in every -way he aould devise, and when his term at the village school wis over, to hij father's great disgust, he trapped squirrels and gathered nuts enough to earn him money and subscribe for aa agricultural paper, which he studied every week till its contents were thoroughly stored in his head. Then began that "noble discontent" which the philosophers praise. Tie elder man had no peace in his old-world ways;" the sloppy waste of the 'barnyard was an eyesore to this "book-learned feller," as his father derisively called him. And the ashes of the wood fire were saved and sheltered like precious dust; instead of being thrown in a big heap to edify the wandering hens. The desolate garden was plowed, fertilized and set in order at last, and the great ragged orchard manured, the apple trees thinned and trimmed, and ashes sown thick over the old massy sod. Now these things were not done ii a day or. a year, but as the boy grew older and more able to cope with his fathei's self-conceit more was done annually, not without much opposition and many hard words, but still done.

Then came a heavy blow. Lurana, a girl of 15, fresh and pretty as a wild rose, and tired of the pinching economy, the monotonous work, and grinding life of the farm, ran away with a tin peddler and broke her mother's heart ;'not in the physical senso that hearts are sometimes broken, but the weary woman's soul was set on this bright, winsome child, and her life lost all its scant savor -when the bright face and clear young voice left her forever. "I don't blame her none, Amasy," she sobbed out to her boy, now a stout fellow of 22, raging at bis sister's folly.' "I can't feel to blame her. I know tis more'n a girl can bear to live this way. I've bed to, bnt it's been dreadful harddreadful haad. Tve wished more'n once I could ha' laid down along with the little babies out there on the hill, bo's to rest a spell: but there was

you and Lury wanted me, and so my

tune nadn t come.

Amasy, you re a man grown now, and if you should get married, and I suppose you will, men folks seem to think it's needful, whether or no, do kinder make it easy for her, poor cretur! Doi.'t grind her down to skin and bone, like me, dear; ta'n't just right, I'm sure on't, uover to make more of a woman than of. she was a horned critter; don't do it." "Mother, I never will," answered the son, as energetically and solemnly as if he were taking his oath.

But Wealthy was nearer to her rest than she knew; the enemy that lurks in dirt, neglect, poor food, constant drudgery,- and the want of every wholesome and pleasurable excitement to mind or body, and when least expected swoops down and does its fatal errand in the isolated farmhouse no less than in the crowded city slums, the scourge of New England, typhoid fever, broke out in the Tucker homestead. Wealthy turned away from hor weekly baking one Saturday morning just as the last pie was set on the pantry shelf; and fainted on the kitchen floor, where Amasa the younger found her an hour after, muttering, delirious and cold. What he could do then, or the village doctor, or an old woman who called herself a nurse, was all useless; bnt the beat skill of any kind would have been equally futile; she was never conscious again lor'a week, then her eyes seemed

! to see what was about hor once mores : she looked Up at her boy, laid her wan cheek on heir hand, smilcd---and died, j Hardly had her wasted shape boon ' put away under the mulleins and hard I hack when her husband came in from ' the havueld smitten with the snuio

plague; -he was harder to conquer; three weeks of alternate burning, sinking, raving and chills ended at last iu ' the gray and grim repose of death foi' him, and another Amasa Tucker reigned alone on the old house on the hill. It is not to be supposed that in ell hese years Amnsa the youngor had been blind to -tho chavms of the other sex he had not "been with" overy girl who went to school with him, or whom ho met at singing school or spelling matches, or who "smiled at him from hor Sunday bonnet, ns he manfully "hold up his end" iu the Village choir. He had been faithful always to tho shy, delicate, dark-eyed little gill who was. his school sweetheart, and now it was to Mary Peet ho hastonod to ask her to share his life and home. Ho had intended to take a farm on -shares tho next summer, and work his way slowly upward to a place of his 'own ; now he had this 100-acre farm, and, to his great surprise, ho found $3,000 laid up in tho bank at Poet's Mills, the slow savings of his father's fifty years. He began at once to set his'honso in order; ho longed to build a new one, bnt Mary's advice restrained him, so he did his best with this; the cellar he cleaned and whitewashed with his own hands; cleaned its one begrimed window and set two more, so that it was sweet and light; the house was scrubbed from one end to the other; a bonfire made of the old dirty comfortables and quilts, tho kitchen repainted a soft yellow, and with clear largo .glass set in plaeo of the dingy old sashes: tho woodhouse was filled with dry wood and good store of pine cones and chopped brush and kindling. A new milk-room was built but & little way from the back door, over a tiny brook that ran down the hill north of the house, and under ihe slatted floor kept up a cool draught of fresh air.a covered passage connected it with the kitchen, and a door into the old milk-room made of that a convenient pantry, while the removal of tho old one from tho kitchen corner gave to that apartment more room, air, and light. A new stove, with a set boiler, filled up the hearth of the old fireplace; ''but further improvements Amasa left for Mary. A different home-coming from his mother's she had indeed, on just such a spring day as Wealthy c8mo there The kitchen shone clean and bright, a bowl of pink arbutus blossoms made its atmosphere freshly sweet and the fire was laid ready for her to light, the shining teakettle filled, and the pantry held such stores as Amnsn's masculine knowledge of household wants could suggest; flour, butter, egga, sugar, all were in abundance, nnd no feast of royalty ever gave more pleasure to its most honored guest than the hot biscuit Mary made and baked for their supper, the staved dried auploft, the rich old cheese and tho fragrant tea gave Amasa this happy evening. Next day they took their wedding trip to Peet's Mills in the new and sensible farm wagon Amasa had just bought, with a strong, spirited horse to draw it. "I want you should look around, Mary," ho had said the night before, "and see what is needed hero. I expect most everything is wanting, and we can't lay out for finory. But first of all get whatH make your work easy. Your weddin' present will come along tomorrow; to-day we'll buy necessities." Mrs. Peet had not sent her only girl empty-handed to the new house. A good mattress, two pairs of blankets, fresh, light comfortables, and some cheap, neat, white spreads; a set of gay crockery, a clock, and a roll of bright ingrain carpeting JiaA all come to the farmhouse soon alter the bride's arrival; her ample supply of sheets and pillow cases, strong towels and a fow tablecloths had been sent tho day bofore, so this sort of thing wan not needed : but there was a new churn bought, and altogether now furnishings for the dairy, several modern inventions to make the work of a woman easier, a set

I of chairs, a tabic, and an easy lounge

lor tne pai-xor, some cretonne covered with apple blossoms and whito thorn clusters, and pails, brooms and tinware that would have made Wealthy a happy woman, crowded tho over-full wagon before they turned homeward. The old house began tt smile and blossom under this new dispensation, and the new mistress smiled too. Amasa milked the cows for her, and lifted the heavy pails of milk to strain into the bright new. pans; he filled the woodbox by the stove twice a day, put a patent pump into the old well, and, as it-stood above the house, ran a pipe down into a sink set in the woodshed, and. so put an end to the drawing and carrying of water. ' The fat, round, placid pigs that now enjoyed themselves in the new pen he took care of himself. "Ta'n't work for women folks," he said. ? You've got enough to do, Mary ; there's the garden you'll have an eye on, and the chicken's,- if you're a mind to; I'm going to build a hen-house and. a yard to it right off, that'll be good enough for you as well as the chickens.

and I want you to promise if any time the work gets a miteehefty and worries you, you'll speak right out. I can afford to have everything else worn out rather than my wife." Beally, it paid. It does pay, my masculine friends, to give any Woman "a kindly word now and then. If you bod done it oftener, or you? father had in the past, the rights. of. women never would have angered or bored you as they do now, or uns.exed and made strident and clamorous, that half of creation which is and always., was unreasonable enough to hare hungry hearts.

SOUTHERN OUTRAGES. Speeches by Senators Sherman and Mahone on tne Oopiah and Danville Horrors.

Plain and lucid Arguments Against the "Mississippi Flan" in Politics,

Every Man Ills Owu Weather Prophet. For all meteoric or storm observo tions on larco bodies of land in the

1 temperate zone, fix yourself with face looking toward tho main sea or ocean.

If tho wind is blowing in your face at tho rate of only four to eight miles an hour rain is not apt to bo present, as tho atmosphere will likely be expanding and absorbing water, and converting it into vapor and holding it suspended in the air until proper planetary phenomena transpire. If tho wind is moving at the rate of ten to fifteen miles an hour it is probably pas dug to a rain, hail or snow storm further inland, and ybu will liko ly find tho barometer falling. " If it is moving at the rate of twenty to thirty miles an hour it is likely passing further inland to a more violent rain, liail or snow precipitation. If it is moving at the rate of forty to sixty miles an hour it is probably blowing further inland to a water-spout, hurricane or toruado, etc. When you find the wind turned around (about 180 degrees) and blowing on your back, the storm has passed you, and it is .on its way back toward the sea, and you will be apt to find the barometer rising and temperature falling. If tlie wind turns partially around (about 90 degrees), and blows ou your left, the storm is then supposed to nave passed by your left on its way toward the sea. ' If the wind should turn the other way around (about 90 degrees), and blow on your left and off your right, then the storm is likely passing by the way of your right toward tho seo. There is frequently a kind of a short lull in front of traveling storms. There ore mild local rains caused by slow changing positions of the planets, etc.. By noting these rules and watching the barometer the course and severity of storms may soon be tolerably well understood, oven for great distances from the observer. The Quick-Willed Athenians. It is at Athens in tho noontide of her intellectual glory that wo first find political satire fully formed. And it rises at oneo to tho height of excellence, to a height which it has never attained since, which it is not likely over to again. Say what you will of Egyptian or Assyrian oricrins, Oroel; art is a miracle. So is

j Greek literature. There is nothing in

tho s u ape of satire equal to those satiric dramas of Aristophanes which were acted before the people of Athens 2,201) years ago. And what an audience Aristophanes had? Of all persons that ever existed the Athenians were tho most quick-eared, the most quick-witted, the most laughter-loving, tho most vivacious, the most universally cultivated, if culture means not merely book learning but refinement of taste and correctness of judgment iu literature and art. They were also of all people tho most political. Every free citizen was a member of the sovereign assombly. and personally took an active part iu publio affairs, beside! frequently sitting as judge.' in political c ses in the great popular court of justice. Bepresentation had not been invented, and the smalluess of the commonwealth, whoso bounds wove those of a singlo city and its little territory, rondered such machinery needless. Tho person and character of every public man whom comio drama brought upon its stage woro as familiar to every one of tho audience as the person and character of one member of the House of Commons are to another. Every hit told, every allusion took, all tho bv-piay was thoroughly appreciated. Tho vast open-air theater held all the citizens ; ond among them were present tho very men whose comio doubles were treading the stage. Goldwin ymlth, in Toronto Mail

I How to Become Lean.

Biddance of undesirable fat, says the New York Sun, has been achieved of late by a number of actresses; and they are said to have done it by dieting, and not by the use of drugs, as many suppose. Tho directions are simple enough, and yet rather hard to follow. They are substantially tho same a-j recommended by Banting, the Englishman who reduced his weight from 201 to 107 pounds iu six months, and then published his experience for tho guidance of others ahiicted by corpulence. Tho system consists in abstinence from food that contains starch or sugar. This excludes bread, butter, milk, potatoes, beer and all the preparations into which sugar enters. I'nfortunateiy for this purpose, women almost invar fably have sweet teeth ; bnt they cannot paTt with their excess of flesh without giving up sugar. They must consent to live chiefly ou moat that isn't fat, aud vegetables excepting potatoes. The quantity of food oaten may bo as great as the appetite calls for." so lone as

When Mr. Sherman's resolutions on tho Virginia and Mississippi elections came up in the United States Senate, the Ohio Senator spoke as follows : IIo si ld since tlio beginning of tlio present session be iinil felt that rec.nt events in tlie btat- s of Virginia ami Mitisiiuiippl were ot audi imixrluii-c as to demand a lull nil'l impartial investigation of .hocauik-s that UU to tlwm, the real taets involved and the proper nslituiional femeoy-to prevent a roohitence, ami, lr iieocsvary, to tm Ih r secure to all American citizens freedom of npet-h In tlie op.-n nssertlon ot political opini na tvulihe peaceful exercise of tlie riuht to vote. Now that sufficient time has clnp.-ed to allay to some extent the excitement caused by tliesi' eveuts, he hoped the Keuate would make this iuvr-stigatlcn, so our citizens In every riti.li' mixht understand how far the National Government will go to protect them in the enjoyment of their ri.'hta; or if it was helpless m limlcRf. that, no longer relying upon the barren declarations of the Const ittition, tacli man for himselt might appeal to tho right of clf(lcfense or to the boasted American right of migration to more frien ily regions. The alienations in this resolution, a to the Dauvilie riot or inasea.rc, were, he said, founded ui ou state, meats In the public prints, supported by the oaths ot witnesses, and tueir aubsuimial truth lo also verined by the published statement of a member ot this body, a Senator lrom the State of irgliiia. The allegations as to Mississippi are founded upon copious narratives in the public prints, proceedings ot public meetings, and the railurc to act of oiheers of the State government, including Governors, judges, courts and Juries. It thcao statements ace true, tuea in both those States there have beca organized conspiracies to subvert the freedom uf elections, accompanied by murder and violenct in many forms, t iTiio crimes depicted are not ordinary crimes, bnt those of the prevailing majority to subvert by violence the highest constitutional privileges ot citizens, and could not, from the r nature, be inquired of or punishei by the ordinary tribunals. 'If," he fa'd, "they are true, then in those communities the muulwrn of our patty ami our race have no riglite which the prvvuilmi: majority is hound to lesject." He had no desire to open up sectional questions or renew old strifes. Still, if these allegations ware true, it would be a cowardly shrinking lvoin the Eravest public ".uty to allow snch events to deepen into precedents which would Fubvort the foundations of republican institutions, and convert our elections into organized crimes. If the ovems at Danville, were the result of a chance ontbrcnk or riot between oporfug parties of different races of men, tuoy might prorcrly be left to be rietdt with by the local aut'jorities; but If the riot and massacre were a part of the ma Chinery devised by a party to dek-r another party or race from the freedom of elrelions. or a free and open expression of political opinions, then they constitute a crime against the National Oovenrment, and the highest duly of the government was to maintain, at overy hazard, the equal nghts and privileges of citizens. If tho events in Copiah county, Miss'sippi, were merely the lawless invasions of individual rights, then, though they involved murder as well s othvr eriniesthcy should be leit to local au.hority, and It justice could not beadministere 1 by the courts and tho citizen was w.ili uc remedy from lawless violence, thou lie must tall back upon his right of st If -d.. fen e, or, lading In that, must seek a home where his rights lie resnected or obscived. Ilut if these indi

vidual crimsa involved the greater one of

orgamziu conspiracy vi a i any or roc: 10 deprive another l at ly or race of citizens of the enjoyment of unquestion d rights, accompanied with overt acts, with physical power sufficient lo accomplish their purpose, than it became a national question, which must be dealt with by the National Uorernment. The war emancipated and made citizens ot 8,010,000 of iieoplo who had been slaves. No court ever denied the power ot the National Government to protect its citizens in the essential rights 01 free men.

secured by crimes snch as depicted here, nor

was it sutncient to say tne elections rcierreu to are not National election in the sens. thi-y did not involvo the election of President or a member of Congress. While the liower of Congress over tho election of iSeuators, Hepresciitativcs, and 1'resident extended to making and altering laws and regulations passed by the respective States, aud, therefore, was Itiller than in respect- to State elections, yet the Constitution provided that : "Tho right of the people tm be secure in persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unrea-soaablo searches and seizures shal not lie violated;" that "all persons born or naturalized iu the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof are citizens of the Vnitc-d States;" ttutt "no Siate shall make or enforce any law widen shall abridge tho Srivilcges or immunities of a oitizen of the nited States; nor shall any State deprive any Jierson of life, liberty, and property, without lue process of law; nor deny any pcrsou within its jurisdiction equal protection of the law:" aud that "the rights ot citizens ot tho United States to vote Khali not be denied or abridged by the United States, or any State, on account ot race, color, or previous condition of servitude." It also declared: "Congress shall have power to make all laws necessary and proper for the carrying into execution of the foregoing powers and all other powers vested by thi i Constitution in the Government of ti e United States, or in any department or officers thereof." Power is also given Congress to onforee all recent amendments by appropriate legislation. If the essential rights of citizenship wore overthrown by a State, or by the people ot a Stite with the sanction of the lo.-al authorities within the limits of tho State, then Congress, as the legislative owcr of tho United States, is bound to provide additional safeguards and should exhaust all the powers of the National Government lo maintain these essential rights of citizenship within the limits of all the States iu a full and complete manner, as it would guard and Srotect the unquestioned rights of citizens of is United States within tho domains oi the most powerful nations of the world. He could appreciate tlie changes that had occurred in the Southern States, and tho natural antagonisms that would arise by the emancipated slaves mingling in the same community with their former masters. He could: pardon tho prejudices of race, caste, and even the localities, and the American people, he thought, bad WAITED WITH OHKAT FOKIJEAltANCE for the time when constitutional rights would be respected without regard to race, color, creed, or party. It tho time had come when the members of the Republican party, through whose agency largely the existence of the Government ha been maintained, could not enjoy these constitutional rights, were murdered at the ballot-box without fear on the part of the murderers or punishment j were driven from their homes by outrage and terror, and that black and white alike, were subjected to ostracism and injustice, and as a party disfranchised, then, indeed. It was patent an inquiry was demanded, and a full, open and manly assertion that rights and equalities should bcuaint.tiued ajd enforced at every hazard. If the Copiah resolutions were the creed of the Democratic party South, then, indeed, the war was a failure. They seemed to him the very f;erm of despotism and barbarit..-, aud yet io was assured by gentlemen friendly to them that they were the creed of nine-tenths ot the iarty iu power in Mississippi. It was right that the groundwork of opinions so utterly repugnant to republican institutions should lie known. lu this investigitlon," he said, "I would seek every palliation or excuse for the conduct of the people romplalned of.

A Vermont Republican Lynched at Monterey, Va., by a Demo cratlc Mob.

The Office of a Coalition Newspaper in Virginia Wrecked by a Bourbon Bomb. I-ynrlilng a ilnpubliean. (Dichmond Dispatch to Chicago Tribunal 1'urther intelligence confirms the dreadful reports concerning tho lynching of E, D. Atchison by a drunken Bourbon mob at Monterey, in Highland county, on Friday last. The details of this outrage are harrowing in the last degree. E. D. Atchison, who is a Vermont man ond an ont-spoken Republican, came to this State about two years ago. He was a cattle trador, and operated elite fly in Augusta, Bath, and Highland counties. He was a rough but straightforward man in all his dealings, and very plain-spoken and brave. Christmas day he was drinking in company with a man Aamed Buckman, who is a prominent Head j uster Republican, and with whom ho had some tradings. They differed, and a blow was given, when Atchison drew his knife and inflicted a severe wound on Buckman. Atchison was arrested and committed to jail, to await the result of Buckman's injuries. In a few days the physicians were satisfied that Buckman would recover, nd made this known to Atchison and his counsel. Buckman further stated that he was wholly to blanio for the disturbance, and requested the authorities to release Atchison, as he had no complaint to prefer, and if brought to trial would not appear as a witness against him. Atchison had, iu the meantime, threatened to bring suits against certain parties who had been mainly instrumental in securing his arrest and confinement. These facts becoming generally known, ten persons (it seems ten is the number of each Bourbon club), wearing masks and otherwise disguised, called at tho jail on Friday night and demanded the keys to Atchison's cell. This was refused. The mob then proceeded to batter-the jail, and wherever a breach could be made they opened fire on Atchison with shot-guns ond pistols. Atchison made a gallant light for his life, but in vain. He foil at last from four different wounds and loss of blood. The cell door was then forced by the desperadoes, who fastened a bedcord, taken from tho cell bed, around Atchison's neck and dragged him off through the snow about half a mile from the village, and suspended him to a tree,1 where lie was found at daylight, dead and stiniy frozen. As usual in such cases, no arrests have been made and none will be, no magistrate daring to- issue a warrant even if any one could bo found to make complaint. Most of the lynchers are well known to different persons who witnessed the attack on the juil, as their masks fell of several times during tho assault, and, most of them being half drunk, talked wildly and excitedly and were recognized by their voices. Tho last Bourbon triumph in this State and the moans resorted to to insure it seems to have completely "knocked the bottom out" of all regard for law or order. Had Bourbonism been overthrown lost fall no one in his senses believes for a moment that the outrages which daily disgrace the State would for a moment be tolerated, or that ten men under the influence of liquor would be allowed to enter a town, attack the jail, and persist in their attack for over two hours, and then drag therefrom a prisoner whose offense, if any at all, was merely a misdemeanor, aud hang him. Atchison was hanged, not for cutting Buckman, but because he was a Vermont man and a Republican. And this dastardly brime must be charged to the Bourbon Democracy of Highland county. If three men out of the fifty who stood by, idle spectators, had simply protested, the outrage would not have beer, recorded. Had Buckman died, and Atchison been hanged or sent to the Btato prison for life. Mien Bourbonism would have been happy. They had hoped to get rid of two Republicans, and were about to bo disappointed, hence their conduct. The finding of the Coroner's jury deserves notice: "We, the jury, find that E. D. Atchison came to his death, the night of Friday last, by exposure to cold and several gun-shot wounds iailioted by persons to the jurors unknown." No mention is mode of tho hanging, nor b the name of a singlo villain given, though every man is wull known to the jury. What a commentary on law aud order! Yet there are man in the North who daily assert that Virginia Bourbons are conservative and do not molest Republicans for opinion's sake. Will such men ever learn? Tim Otttce of a Coalition l'aper Wrecked. I Lynchburg Telegram to Chicago Tribune. A fiendish attempt was made one night last week to blow up with gunpowder the office of the Blocksburg Times, a Coalition newspaper. Tho office and fixtures were seriously damaged. It was the work of certain Bourbon Democrats, who were exasperated by the fearless denunciations by tho Times of their cowardly and Nihilistic acts and doings. The means used to accomplish tho work was a powder-bomb, known in Virginia parlance ns a "baby-waker," which consists of half a dozen pounds oi powdei, wrapped tightly in strong cotton or linen cloth, and then wound round with cords, and fixed by means of a common fuse, and which explodes with terrible anil destructive force. It also possesses tho further destructive trait of burning up, if not pronrptly arrested, tho building in which it is exploded. Tho wiudows of tho office wero torn out by tho explosion, the typos reduoed'to "pi," the prcsj lifted' from its position and flitch injured, and the ! stovos aud Hue. overthrown and much shattered. Of course, the paper is suspended for a season. The village of Blaoksburg is in Montgomery county, about forty-five miles from the Norfolk and Western railroad, and, the county roads being almost impassable on account of tho ice and snow, tho news ot this outrago was slow in getting out. The outrage was unquestionably tho outgrowth of Bourbon Nihilistic teachings, and gives great satisfaction to tho Democratic cliques at Blaoksburg and Christiansburg, the county-seat so much so that they cannot conceal their exultation. The day after the act was committed several Bourbons left Blaoksburg (two of them

being ninong the first to inspect. the ruins), and, when Asked on their arrival at tbis place if the rumor of the destruction of tho jPitned office was trne, replied that they had never heard of it. This, of course, quieted the apprehensions of the friends of the paper until the extra of Friday -last, giving an account of tho explosion, was worked off and gotten through by due course of mail. What Reputftican, in the face of the foregoing, is .such a blockhead as to desire the "Solid South" to again come to the front and rule at Washington, as in the good old days of slavery?

"What is the political outlook? ' "1 have got to hear a single fainthearted expression. There is a general expression of belief and genuine beliet that we shall surely carry the Presidential election. This expression is not confined to people at Washington, but comes from all parts of the country by correspondence." ""What will be the Congressional action on tariff and currency matters?" "I caunot say, for I don't think the Democrats themselves know." "With what favor does your two-percent scheme meet?" "Really, I do not know. That purported interview with me, while in the main correct, was second-hand. I had been talking to a banker, who was favorable to the abolition of the bank tax. I stated my views, subsequently as telegraphed", in favor of taking off the tax, provided the bond, upon which bank currency is based, were floated at a low rate of interest, say 2 per cent." "Would not so low a rate confine the bonds entirelv to bank subscription?" "That is what I would., have, The 2 Tier cents, would foe oritirely for the

banks. The only objection to so low a rate

of interest is that in tne general maraei they might fall below par. By the way, it was the bonds which I said could not

The Political Murder. A letter from Mississippi says that two days after the murder of Matthews,

the Mayor of Hazlehurst issued the following" proclamation, from which it appears that with the co-operation, of the Chairman of the Democratic Executive committee he was able to promise the protection of the law : MAVOK'3 PHOCLAMATION. HAZI.KIltlttH, Nov. S. 1883. Wheubas, Thcie lia boon for tho past few days more or loss excitement, and ae women and children hare become so alarmed and business stagnant, tho town now de mands order restored, and, as' Mayor of the town of Hazlehurst, with tho assistance ot tho Sheriff of Coplh county, and the Chairman of the Dcmoc ratio Executive committee, we promise all protection under tho law. And I further request all peace officers to see that law and 01 dor is restored, aud call on citizens la town to assist la doing: so. A compotout polico force will be prov.dod- for, for any occasion, to protect life, liberty, and property. K- C. Wii.i.iamson, Mayor. The Coroner issued the following: In regard to the killing; of J. P. Matthews, it was suggvjstod to me by T. P. Ware Ihat I bad better have a jury of inquest over the. body; before summoning tho Jury I was told E. B. Wheeler did not deny tho act. I saw him, and be told mo had dono it, aud I could make out my verdict that way. Wm. Koberwon, Coroner. Tho Jackson 2ViGwe, in the course of a long at tide on the murder, brings out the facts that the killing of Matthews was done by the. "peace officer" of the precinct. It says: J. P. Matthews, tho Chairman of tho Republican Executive Commitloo of Copiah county, was shot down at the polls In Hazlehurst on the 6th or November. His ballot bad barely left his hand, tho luapcotor of E'eotion was pronouncing the word "voted," when ho turned aud was shot down by the peace ofHcor of tho precinct. From tlio n ass of reports and Interviews wo condonso what seems to ua to be as noar a correct version as can bo obtained.

But It seems to hao boon in effect a warning- to Matthew; to remain in his tiouso on election day, and under no circumstances to go to tho polls to vote. To disregard this order the death panaltr was attached. Matthews disregarded tho order. Ho weut to the polls. He voted, and a ho turned tho captaiu of tho band of regulators and peace officer of (hp polls with bis own baud inflicted tho death ponalty. This is the Democratic way of keeping tho South solid.
