The Becent Elections.
While the result of the recent
elections waw favorable to the
Democratic party, and indica
ted the election of a Democrat
ic President next year, it con
tained a wholesome- lesson
which must not go unheeded.
It tauirht ns that the Democrat
ic party is stilt confronted by
an unscrupulous and dangerous
enemy. It gave unmistakable
proof that the Radical party
will subordinate everything to
the chance of victory, and will
make a death struggle to retain
the spoils, which have kept
hem together and upon' which
thf.y Lave gloated for iuoe
; than twenfy years.
If the Democratic leaders are
influenced by wine counsel, they
will profit by the lesson w hich
hta been taught them. They
will commit no serious blunder
In the next Congress, and will
act with becoming forbearance
toward one another so as to
preserve harmony in our ranks
and present an undivided and
victorious front to our common
enemy when the day of battle
comes. If on the other hand a
spirit of intolerance on the tar
iff or any other question is kept
up, and wrangling and discord
tre indulged in, we may expect
defeat, and we may expect to
see the government continued
under the dominion of the pres
ent corrupt dynasty which has
so long disgraced our country'.
We do trust that moderation,
prudence and wisdom will mark
the course of our representa
tives in Congress. I f so, as sure
as the ides of November 1884
nhall come, will our cause be
victorious and Radical rule be
numbered among the things of
the past.

were not sufficient to warrant

we should gain either of these

more of a benefactor than any
man we know. One day last
week he came into our office
and subscribed for two copies of
the Advance to be sent to two
boys, whose parents were una
ble to read and who were too
poor to pay for the paper. He
said, in substance that they
were deserving boys; loved to
read and desired the -, paper ;
that they were associates of his
own children and that to cause
them to be fit companions for
his children and to make them
good citizens, it was necessary
that they be educated, and that
for these reasons he wanted
them to have the paper.' He is
a man of ordinary education
and makes no pretension to
learning, and yet he is more of
a philanthropist than any man
in Wilson county. His name
deserves a high place on the
"Roll of Honor," and were he
not so modest a man we would
publish his name, so that all
our readers might know whom
he is and where he lives.. Hip
pxample deserves emulation.
When ouT farmers learn to take
this view-of things there will
be no class prejudice and em
ployer and employee will feel
that they have a common inter
est and a common purpose.
Death of a Great Man.
Rev. Dr. -I. B. McFerriri, of
the M. E. Church South, died in
Nashville, Tenn, Wednesday.
He was one of the most celebra
ted Methodist divines in the
South, besides being head of
the publishing house there.
He served with honor as one of
the leading chaplains in the
Confederate army, and was a
man of great learning and large
experience in worldly matters.
When in the army he was al
ways in the thickest of tlu-fight.
Aggravated malaria;', was the
cause of his death. Dr. McFer
rin received the late ex-President
James K. Polk into the
church and officiated at his fu
neral. '
