The Richmond, Virginia State, asks
"What do the Alliance people want?'
and answers its own question by saying:
"Most aaauredlv they do not want
'a third party which would mean only
a Republican triumph in the South
The Democrats are everywhere particular in their instructions to Alliance men to let them understand that no third nartv movement must be allowed where
it would injure the Democracy. Th
third party can only be allowed in Republican Htates. The Alliance men
must feel proud of their movement
when thev find it thus guided and
governed by the Democrats.
Ren Butler is devoting his spare time to writing a book, and mainly, it
is said, for the purpose of "getting even
with Grant." Butler is nothing if he
is not sensational : his whole life has
been a sensation, and not a very credit
able one either. He first came into notoriety by voting at a Democratic national convention for Jefferson Davis
be voted scores of times for him,
and continued voting when every one
else had abandoned his candidate.
Latterly he' has ceased to be noticed and now he hopes to be again talked about by abusing Grant. If he had tried to get even with Grant during
the lifetime of the general he might in turn have been kicked into notice, but
there is no way of "getting even" with
a dead man. Butler's book will fail of
its purKse.
It is thought that the death of Mr.
Gladstone's son has so broken the spirit of that grand old man that he
will permanently retire from political life. He is now in his eighty-second
year, ana lias been in training lor a
great campaign. Not for a number of
years has his prospects for a return to power been so good as when the shock of his son's death came to him,' and
crushed his strength for the coming
contest. The Liberals of England are numerically strong, and it is only a question of time when they will again sweep the country ; but Gladstone will
not be there. After a public service of
three score years he bids the world
line wen uuu run res, rf.iuy iu cuicr me "penumbra of death." The grand old man may live ten years yet ; but after the scenes ot last week he will not be strong enough to play a part in the political drama, all of which is unspeakably sad ; the grandest man of the century giving way to old age and sorrow. The sympathy of the world is with Mr. Gladstone.
A careful survey of the lives of
many of the successful business men of this country shows that the secret of
their success is not so well expressed by the word "advertising" unless the explanation be added that when general business was dull tbey used more zeal in advertising to compel it to come to them. They used printers' ink to make their prices known to the people of their communities, and thereby frequently secured an inning on their competitors who cut down advertising. It is evident that this course is wise. People are more on the lookout for bargains in dull times than in flush times.
That is why so many leading houses
employ men to do nothing else but plan
and write advertisements for them
Many men who have bought out other men's stores have astonished their fellow-citizens by the success of the very
same business under the new manage
ment. It may be the same store.
Three-fourths of the old force may be
retained. It may occupy the same stand. What, then, is the impetus the new concern has? Simply judicious
advertising. When the competitor's advertisement is cut down the new man increases his. If the competitor
makes a cut on one line he "goes him
one better on another."

While cowing down town recently on
a, Broadway surface car as particularly
loquacious and observant conductor gave tue some curious facta concerning the pecuniary ctiararjteriatJes of the
many people with whom be bad
in contact. His particular enocny, ac
cording to bis remarks, appears to have
been woman, no matter what position
ill society she occupied.
They never bad cti&nge, lie said, and
when they did happen to have any
thins smaller than a silver dollar the
cash invariably Droved to be the ob
noxious penny.
"Women." said he. "are the worst
passengers we have to carry. When
ask them for their fare tbey will spend fifteen minutes searching through their
purses and pockets for pennies, although several nickels are right at
hand.
"And for bad money they beat the deck. You will hardly believe the truth of the statement, but nine-tenths of the Dluirced Quarters and lead five
cent pieces I receive couie from them.
"The better clothes a woman wears,
I find, the more likely tbey are to have
mutilated coin.
"1 never got even a oau penny even
from a working girL
"Me vera! mouths ago there was a
young miss about seventeen years old,
always attired in the latest fashion, who
would frequently get on my ear at Thirty-fourth street and ride up town
to the park. And I never saw such a girl for . passing bad coin. Every trip
she would hand me either a plugged
quarter or half dollar. Finally I got
tired and asked her where she got it?
" 'Oh I she replied, as sweetly as you
please, 'I've got several brothers and they give me ail the bad money they get. ' I give it to yon because you can
pass it off on somebody else.
"That took my breath away. After that she never passed any more of her brothers' bad money on me and she
stopped riding on my car.
"1 suppose she is working it oil now
on some other conductor.
"Working women, especially shop
girls, never think of pennies or bad money. They have their fare ready when they tret on the car and hand it
over without any fuss the minute I ask for it. They work themselves and probably appreciate the fact that all bad money I turn into the receiver comes
out of my wages at the end of the week.
"The other women, I guess, don't
know that.
"Do I ever have trouble with men?
Oh, yes, a handsomely dressed fellow
swindled me out of two dollars.
"How did it happen? "Well, tbe fellow got on tlie car up
town after tbe theater. He wore a full dress suit, and when I asked for his fare he handed me a two dollar bill, at
the same time apologizing because be
liad nothing smaller. 1 1 e left his change in another coat. I looked at the bill and it appeared all right, so I gave him the change. That night it was handed
bock at the receiver's window. It proved to be a counterfeit, so I lost the
two dollars.

ferred the nomination of Hannibal Hamlin or Andrew Johnson for the viee-presidency in 1SG4 would not seem to be of sufficient importance to justify the bitter quarrel now existing between Col. McClure, of the Philadelphia Times, and Mr. Nieolay, President Lincoln's private secretary. As a matter of fact, however, we believe Mr. Nicolay
is in the right and Col. McClure in the wrong upon the question. We were s member of the Indiana delegation at the Baltimore convention in 1So4, and we distinctly remember that at the convention it was very generally understood that Mr. Lincoln refused to express any choice between the candidates for second place. In company with J udge Kilsrore, of this state, we made a lengthened call npon President Lincoln, the day before the nominations were made, and while the President, in answer to the direct question, frankly said he desired his own nomination, he utterly refused to indicate any preference for the vice-presidency. We do not, therefore, believe he could have really been urging the selection of Johnson. If he were doing so, some one, beside Col. McClure, at the coa-

There is a flat rock near the old
Echols mill that covers an acre of
ground. One of the strange features of the rock is the track of some huge beast of burden, also the tracks of the
rider of this queer antediluvian mon
ster. It seems that the rider and his
steed made a tour across the rock,
leaving their tracks impressed in the
solid granite.
About midway of the stony surface
can be seen a place where the girth of
the rider's saddle broke and be de
mounted to fix it, leaving his tracks as plain as if made in a sand bed. Tbe hand of time has not erased them, bat
they are there now, showing the form
of the animal's feet and the precise im

American ' travelers hastening between the English and Scottish capitals miss what I hare often felt is the most
interesting portion of the two countries. That is the Border country with its ancient border towss, in and around which have been fought more ferocious
contests than elsewhere in all England
and Scotland. These eld border towus
have been but little modernized. The railway stations are about the only structures in them that have large
windows or smell of paint. They re
main chiefly as thev stood when the
border raids were euded. They are gray, battle-scarred, ancient. They were built in fitrhtintr times and have
their records .in their hard old faces.
To wander among them is like being whisked back four or five centuries and
set down face to face with the grituness and hardness of fedual times. Scotland
is richest in these weird old relics.
The Scotch crowded close to the Border, built huge places of sally, and then
being liveliest on ineir legs uarrieu the English in such a brisk and occu
pying way that they had little time on their hands, after chasing tbe raiders
home, for building border to ns.
On the English side, in the two great
border shires ot Cumberland and North
umberland. there' are but two border
cities of note, of ancient origin, New
castle and Carlisle, unless the little
earlv-dav castle-towns of Penrith and
Keswick, the latter in the English lake district, mar be included. But in the
three adjoining shires of Berwick, Box
burgh and Dumfries, there are Ber
wick and Coldstream, Kelso, Jedburgh,
Melrose. Hawick. Langholm, Eccle
fechan. Ann in and Dumfries. It would
indeed be CARRYING COALS TO NEW CASTLE
to attempt discovering much of interest in that city beyond matters connected
with manufactures and coal. At Kes
wick one is too preoccupied with the
scenery ot uerwent vale, aominatea py huge Skiddaw, and by the memories recalled bv the lines of Southy and
Coleridge, that its ancient character and traditions fade into insignificance. Little
and quaint old Penrith is a place no
tourist ever finds, yet it is certainly one
of the oddest hives of humans in Ji.n
gland. Here are the remains ot a once
huge border castle.built by the nevilles.
That was all the canny Scots could
see when they sallied over the border,
but they knew that at its base, in a little hollow, stood the grotesque town,
its streets the narrowest, most winding
and mazy in all England, and that its
wise old burghers had much of value
hid in their tiny strongholds of houses.
It is at Peniith, sacked scores of times
in the English and Scottish wars, and
for several brief periods tbe residence
ot that merry murderer. Kog Rich
ard III. that you will find one of
England's most curious rude stone
monuments. It stands in the little
churchyard, and is known as the "Gi
ant's Giave. There are two huge stone
pillars, one each at the head and foot.
They taiicr i'.'om a circumference of
twelve feet at the base to seven at the
ton. Folk-lore of the region affirms
that they were erected ages gone by to perpetuate the memory of a legendary giant called Owen Ciesarius. They are
covered with Runic carvings. British
antiquarians long since gave them up as a dead age secret, and Sir Walter Scott nearly went mad puzzling his poor
knobby head over them
But I saw the people of Penrith in a more vexed puzzle than this the other day. A portable engine and threshingmachine of American pattern were being hauled down hill through its single thoroughfare, which sharply winds to
the right and left to accommodate the entire place. It was too narrow in
places to allow their passage. Presently the two pieces ot machinciy were
wedged fast .between the opposite
houses. An extraordinary commotion
followed, as all the town-folk on either
side seemed at once FURIOUS TO PASS THE OTHER,
and this sinuous street was the only
means, without making a circuit of
half the place. Everything from dyna
mite to a Queen's warrant and the giant shade of Owen Caesariua. was suggested
to relieve the city. V hen I left it mobs were struggling on either side of the barrier, massed into a writhing cone against and upon the machinery; while a stentorian burgher waived his arms
and shouted to the multitude: "Kes
coomso' Hamericaninwentions! They
puts wilhn hands in th workus, an
howdashusly stoaps oop our streets.
Down wi' 'em, say Oi!" And "Down
wi em! sang tbey all as they struggled
to Oop wi em. an awa! Perhaps
they are at it yet in 1 enrith town.
Ancient Carlisle, a portion of whose
castle was built over 1,200 years ago, is
a fine example ot the once almost im
pregnable border town. It stands at the edge of the foothillj of the north
English mountains, on one of their
farthest out-juttings : and hill, town
and castle have a topographical outlook of pu?naciousness as the whole faces
the misty Scottish mountains. Between
the city and the border stretches a vast fertile plain, once a fen over which
Scottish raiders slowly waded, and their
delay always gave the Carlisle warriors
time to get into good fighting trim.
Indeed, the stronghold was the chief
weapon or imam ltuius to bridle
and render insecure the possessions of
the Scottish kings in the two northern
counties. i'oor .Mary Uueen ot ccots
was shut up here some time after her
landing in England. 1 he east window
of the Carlisle cathedral is probably the largest in Great Britain ; while
within the same area can nowhere be
found so great a number of ancient castles ' of residence and defense.
Among these I visited Rose, Corby and
hospital, and burghs of Scotland- The
Scandinavians made descents upon it, but it was built for such visits, and they did but little harm. The English
acquired a chum upon it in the time of
ill tarn the Lioa, stormed it during
the reirn of Alexander II.. and in
thralled it during the dispute for the
succession of the crown, it thenceforth became an object of continual
jealousy between the English and the
Scotch, being valuable for its great
wealth, its mighty fortifications, and its
extensive command ot the border dis
triets; and it often suffered thai horrors
of siege and eajfture. Berwick's ancient
mighty ramparts, against which the
first cannon fired by the English in warfare were pointed, have been transformed into a beautiful promenade. A railway station stands on the site of its
once almost royal castle. But stretching across the Tweed, the Old Bridge, built nearly 30O years ago, still remains,
a monument to the spirit of those troublesome times, and is simply a chain of tremendous battlemeuled forts on piers. Mussing up its mossy old
spans, wandering about the lolly bell-

horizon to the very peaks of the mistswathed Cheviots, or listening to the soft notes of the curfew bell at even
tide, a wondrous and stirring past is blended with the brightness of to-day in this one old border town. What a host of mighty men and woiwu have played some act of their historic lives
in Berwick! 1 he early JNorse kings, the Saxon Thaues aud Eldoriaen, the
Norman Conqueror, Rufns, the Edwards, Henry VI., aud Margaret of Anjou; followed by Warwick, Surrey,
Somerset, Norfolk, Russell, Dacres,
Boh ngbroke and Northumberland; with
Queen Mary, Englaud's first James, Charles I. and II., relentless Cromwell, grim John Kuox: and the dauntless
Scottish kings. David, Gregory, Donald,
Alexander and iron-hearted Bruce; all
and countless more, are wrought into the brilliant irspective of its history, and spring into wraithful being with every footfall upon its grim old streets.
Taking one s way along the Scottish
border to the southwest, every hill, Laugh, brae burn or aere of ground has its glorious or bloody memory. Some
portions of the Cheviots, Lanmierinoors,
Eudons or Kylo II ills are ever in sight.
Wherever one turns, it seems that there
must be heard through the screech of
the pibroch, March! march! Ettrick and Teviotda;
w hy, my latls, dinna ye march forward in order, March! march! Etskdale and Liddcsdale.
All the blue bonnets are over the border.
Here at Coldstream you can hjok over
upon Flodden Field where James 1 V. brought his army and himself to slaugh
ter. They passed its foid, as have scores of Scottish and English armies
before and since. It was Monk's head
quarters before he marched to London
to restore Charles II. and it was in this
lovely old town uKn the Tweed
which he raised the regiment, existing
to this day, and known the world over
as the
.FAMOUS COLDSTREAM GUARDS.
A wonderful old priory for Cistercian
nuns once existed nere, but all tbat is
left is tons of human bones, for th
Scottish heroes ot Flodden were borne
back here for burial. The dreamful

ever came here ? Yet it is one of the
quaintest and most beautiful places in
Britain. Built around a huge
market square, its hnc old struc
tures, shady wynds and closes
give you an almost exact repro
duction of the oddest burghs of Hol
land. Its abbey ruins, of which few
outside of its own shire kuow. or ever
looked upon, are among the finest to be
found in Europe. The abbey was built
early in the 12th century, and received
ts continuation irom 1 ope Innocent II.
A few miles to the south is lethohu

quarters ot the Scottish Gipsies. It

Then comes sunny Annandale. It is also unknown to tourists. Yet it seems to me in a few particulars to
possess extraordinary interest. At the very border is little Gretna Green, one
of tne most famous courts of Hymen
on earth, where William Laing, village ostman and Gretna "priest," still ties
the nuptial knot, for eonsideration.with his weazened and deaf old wife as wit

of one of the oldest and certainly one of the most historic or ancient Scottish

Robert the Bruce. In Annan, where those wonderful phenomena, the tidebores of the Sol way may be best seen, is the birthplace of the greatest and most unfortunate of all Scottish preachers, Edward Irving. And at Ecelefechan is found an almost unknown yet noble shrine, as the memories of men are measured; the birthplace and grave of crabbed, crafty, mighty and glorious old Thomas Car-
lyle.
