THE PEOPLE OF ALABAMA ARE GETTING A TASTE OV IT. Washington, Oct. 11. Before Mr. Christopher Magce, of Pittsburg, weut to Alabama a few days ago, he was in Washington anil had consultations with President Harrison, Secretary of tho Treasury Foster, and Attorney-General Miller. At these consultations there can be no doubt a plan of operation was set tled on by which it was hoped Mr. Ma gee might be able to deprive the Demo crats of the electoral vote of Alabama by swinging it to the people's party. The machinery of tho federal dopartruent of justice and of the federal government gen erally was placed at the disposal of Mr. Magee cud the Alabama Republicans, and in the absence of a force bill from the statute books, it was resolved to strain tho present laws to the utmost, so as to aid in accomplishing the desperate pur pose of the administration. The first results ot the plan settled on by Foster and Magee and no doubt ap proved by the President and Attorney General Miller, were shown in last night's dispatches from Alabama telling of the arrest under Magee's direction of Judge Frazer and Circuit Clerk Pickett, of Bullock county, on a charge of violating the Federal election law by refusing to appoint election inspectors nominated by the Third party. These arrests, according to advices re ceived here, have caused intense excite ment throughout the State, which will no doubt be increased when it is known that Magee is acting at the direct insti gation of the President aud members of his cabinet. Southern Democrats here, however, are not at all disturbed over the matter. On the contrary, they are rather glad than otherwise that the administration has shown its hand at this early day in the campaign. They say that nothing will so arouse the Democrats of Alabama as the knowledge that the president and his managers and agents have determined to put the force bill into effect practically although Congress refused to pass that measure. They declare that these ar rests, under these circumstances will bring back into the Democratic ranks thou sands of old time Democrats who have gone off with the Third party craze. Southern Democrats hope that Mr. Ma gee will continue his work on these lines in the South. SOMETHING HAPPENED. We rode out with the coroner aud several other eminent citizens Sunday morning to view an inquest on a body which had been found suspended to the limb of a tree on Tbrcc Mile Hill. It was tho general impression, from the .way the rope was fastened and other trif ling circumstances, that something had happened to the men. He was a total 6tranger in these parts, and he had noth' ing on his person by which he eould . be identified. As near as we could m; out after a patient examination he was traveling about to see the country and got tired of walking. In this emergency he probably borrowed a cayuse from Major Callahan's drove, and was getting along as well as could be expected under the circumstances when some of' the major s men ran aoross him him. We don't supposed they asked him many questions or made much effort to discover whether he had a poor old mother or not who would wonder why her boy never came home. The boys out that way arc always rushed for time. Tho body was cut down and buried aud the usual ver dict of "heart failure" returned. Arizon Kicker. : Auwser this Question.

A SENSIBLE WOMAN. SHE WOULD NOT LIVE WITH A"SNOLLY COSTER." A good story was told here Friday on Wihniugton street, and its truthfulness vouched for by a rcspcetablo gentleman living in this county. A certain Third party man living in Mark's Creek Town- ship came in on Weaver day to hear the Third party candidate speak, and, . bis good wifewassothoroughlydisgusted that while he was gone she packed up and left, and declared that she would not live with him, or claim him as a husband as long as he clung to his obnoxious Third party faith. She stuck to her determi- nation till a day or two ago the erring husband declared that ho would return to the Democratic fold, and prayed to the Lord that he might never stray from it again, after which his spouse consented to return and take up lier abode with him.

WATCHING THREE YEARS BY A MOTH ER'S GRAVE. A correspondent of a Shanghai Jour- ual, writing from Kiukiang, on the Yangs, mentions that he has seen a sight which is not often seen in China. This is a mau who has taken a vow to watch three years at his mother's grave. The mother died at the end of last year, and was buried, as usual, on the side of a neighboring hill in the family burying place. When the remains had been con signed to the earth the son declared that he would not leave the grave for three years, and so far has been true to his word. Families in tho neighborhood take turns in preparing his iood and bringing it to him. LOVE-FEAST. Greensboro Record. The sickest man we have seen recent ly was the conductor on the . Raleigh train last night. Ho brought up a new ly married couple from below Greensboi . and says he has heard of love-sick, spool ey people before but never had the oppoi tunity of seeing the sight until last nigh.. They kissed, they embraced, they fel over in each other's arms until the crowd in the coach felt as if they were all sea sick. But then the most of the people on the train were staid old married folks, Young people would never have been made sick, unless with envy, Such is life. Don't begrudge these people their happiness the world would be better off if every married couple were just as spoony. It must be admitted, however, that there is a time for all things and on the cars is a little out of place; but in the exuberance of their joy they forgot everything and everybody but thomsolves. Wo learn it was a run-away couple; if so they should be forgiven. . ONE OF HAM'S JOKES. !mdo Boston s mule was sick and a neighbor advised him to administer calomel.
