A GOOD HOUSEWIFE. The good housewife, when she is giving her house its spring renovating should bear in mind that the dear inmates of her house are more precious than many houses, and that their systems need cleansing by purifying the blood, regulating the stomach and bowels to prevent and cure the diseases arising from spring malaria and miasma, and she must know that there is nothing that will do it so perfectly and surely as Hop Bitters, the purest and best ef medicines. -^-[Concord (N.

THE Sullivan True Democracy has an account of the Calhoun family. It says ol the grandsons of the great statesman: "John C. Caihoun, graduated with the first honor at the University of Nashville. He is a civil engineer, i« married and lives in St. Louis"

The True Democacy is mistaken. John C. Calhoun, grandson of the great statesman and no doubt the one adove refered to, is slinging beer in a 6aloon on the corner of Sixth and Elm streets, St. Louis. He studied for the law but abandoned it, saying he could "make more behind the bar than at the bar." Alas, how the mighty are fallen!

A SHAM.

Colored Cadet Whittaker's Case of Bulldozing.

Cover at

Is This a Sample Southern Outrage?

NEW YORK, April 7.—The Herald has the following story of the assault upon a colored cadet, Whittaker, at We6t Point:

When Post Surgeon, Dr.* Alexander, arrived at Whittaker's room he aaked, after untying his limbs, "What's the matter, Whittaker Receiving no response he gently shook him, repeating the question. He then shook him harder renewing his inquiry. "I think he is shamming," said the doctor. "I am almo&t killed," finally gasped Whittaker. "Where am I "Tell us all about it," said the doctor. "Here are General Scoficld and Colonel Lazelle and they want to know." "During the night," replied Whittaker, "three men came into my room, two rather tall and one short. They each wore a mask. One struck me with that Indian club, pointing to a club near by on which was blood stain. They then clipped my hair and cut my ears. I was also struck OR the nose, causing it to bleed freely. I knew nothing more until you found "roe." After hearing this statement Dr. Alexander had Whittaker taken to the hospital, 01 rather had him walk there and then pursuant to instruction from Gen. Schofield had him stripped and thoroughly examined. The result of the examination was that not a bruise was found on him. It was further ascertained that his nose had not bled as he stated. "You arc not hurt you can go on duty," said the director, and Whittaker at once repaired to his quarters and put in his appearance at ihe nine o'clock recitation, and was, last night, occupying his room in the barracks as if nothing had happened.

The reporter had a talk with Gen. Scofieli who said that as far as he knew Whittaker had not an enemy among the cadets." "So you think no cadets had a hand in the nialter?" "So far there is no indication of any such fact," replied the General, "Every cadet in the corps has been examined, and they each deny any knowledge of the affair." •'What do you think could be his motive?" He was admitted to the academy four years age next June a year ago. Last January he was found deficient and now is in the second class. He first roomed with Flipper the colored Cadet who graduated, and the latter, who is much brighter helped Whittaker, it is stated, a good deal in his studies. He has run behind since. As the next examination is next month and with but little hope of hiB passing, he might, could he have brought it about, have been ordered to the hos* pital and thus being accused, obtained another year of grace." "Should it be discovered that this was his own doing what will be the result "Mis dismissal in disgrace of course." "Could not Whittaker have given alarm if what he states is true "Most certainly." "Is there any other colored cadet in the academy "No, said the General."

The colored man who waits on the officers says, "I think that as he had a gun in his room, that if he was visited by persons in masks and allowed them to beat him and tie him up he hasn't a particle of pluck and is a disgrace to the colored race."

POLITICAL.

REFUBLICAN JUBILEE.

The young Republicans met at headquarters last night and jubilated over the trustee they have elected. Mr. Finkbiner was called out and made a little speech as follows

I owe my victory over the Democrats to this Young Men's Republican ^Club and to my friends. We had a hard fight but we have won and that honorably and without having policemen to electioneer for us. (Applause). I must thank all Republican voters for their noble effort, They have bursted the Democratic ring wide open. (Applause). And now I mu6t urge my Republican friends to keep this work going on and in May we will see that the city is in safe Republican hands. I thank you again for the. noble •work you did for tne.

Mr. Geo Wells of the Fourth ward was the next speaker: He seems to have deserted the National party, and is red hot for Republicanism. It was decided that an invitation be extended to Hon. M. Milford, of Attica to address the club next Monday. gfr HI my-

THE EXODUS.

The Kansas Branch the Exodus IIring Investigated.

ol*

THE PEOPLE OF KANSAS THINK THEY HAVE HAD TOO MUCH OF A GOOD THING.

Nothing as yet Showing why They Leave North Carolina for Indiana.

WASHINGTON, April 5.—The Senate Exodus Committee, to-day, examined four witnesses. B. J. Waters, lawyer, from Fort Scott, Kansas, testified regarding the immigration into Sothern Kansas from Texas. The burthen of complaints of the immigrants was hard times, bulldbzing, denial of political rights and limited school facilties for their children.

J. W. Wheeler, colored, St. Louis, and manager of the Colored Relief Association at that point, stated that over 20.000 immigrants passed through the hands of the association at St. Louis, and he thrught altogether, by the aid of different associations, fully 55,000 had located in Kansas from the South. He thought the movement was on the increase.

Mr. H. Case, Republican Mayor of Topeka, Kansas, thought that from 8,000 to 10,000 had come into Shawnee county within the last six months. But few applications have been made to him as mayor for aid, although he believed seventenths of those arriving needed assistance. They were looked after by the several relief associations having headquarters in Topeka. The associations received supplies from all parts of the country, and even from Europe. The people of Topeka were divided, without regard to politics, on the subject of the advisability of the negroes coming to Kansas. Some Republicans ssid that Kansas was getting a surfeit of this thing. The complaints of those immigrants he had conversed with were generally the insecurity of life and the deprivation of political rights in the South. One colored man who had been located in the country for several months, but who was endeavoring to return South, informed witness that thousands of immegrants would return if they could obtain means to get back. He also informed witness that the relief association refused to assist them to return.

Senator Voorhees "asked a witness if there was not a vein of dissatisfaction with their present condition in Kansas running through a large body of the immigrants. To this the wit ness answered "yes," but in reply to a question from Senator Windom admitted that the vein was very thin.

He expressed the opinion that if the blacks behaved better in the South they would be treated "better. They were not improving their condition by coming to Kansas in such large numbers.

H. C. Parks, Democrat, publisher and editor of the Patroit at Atchison, said the people, without regard to politics, are all opposed to this influx of blacks.
