The
VOI, IX.
If anybody ought to feel disgruntled
at the appointment of Pearson as Post
master at New York it is not the peo
ple ot the South. Goodness knows
that there has been nothing to complain
of thus far South of Mason and D.xon's
line.
We pin our faith to Grover Cleve
land as we have pinned it to no man
since the dark days of '63 when Iee
surrendered at Appomaltx C. and
it wiil take something mora than the
appointment of a Republican as post
master at New York to shake our faith
in the man.
We fear that President Cleveland
was mistaken in at least one respect,
when he authorized tbe remark that
"the Democratic party is neither hypo
critical, unpatriotic nor ungratelul."
There are some in the South who do
not fill the bill completely. In tbe ap
pointment of Mr. Pearson as Postmaster
at New York, a matter In which they
can have but a very remote interest,
they overlook the fact that lor tbe first
tixe in twenty-five years the white peo
ple of the South have a representa
tion in the Cabinet and in the list of
ministerial appointments. They lorget
that ot the seven Cabinet offices two
are Irom tbe South, while a third was
taken from Delaware, a State which,
although not 'classed as a Southern
State, has always, been Southern in
sentiment and leeling. They lorget
also that thus far in tbe distribution of
ether important offices the South has
not only her share, but more than her
share. And they forget another thing
and a very important fact it is. Mr.
Cleveland did not make this appoint
ment without the advice and concur
rence of his Cabinet, three sevenths of
whom are Southern men.
.
.
The retention of any waste matter
in tbe system produces injury. Tbe col
lection of "phlegm' or disease mucus
in time of cold or throat affection
should He promptly removed. Dr.
Bull's Cough Sjrup does it more
quickly and effectually than any other
cough syrup made.

Infanticide.
At about 11 o'clock last night as
Amos Tally, colored, a driver of one ot
the city carts, was crossing the Walker
lot, ou the square bounded by Filth
and Sixth and Chestnut and Mulberry
streets, he saw a bag lying on the
ground, which upon a slight examina
tioh, proved to contain the body of a
dead infant. He at once 'vent to police
headquarters and gave notice of tbe
fact when Chief of Police Brock direct
ed him to return and see that nothing
disturbed the body until it could be
sent tor. Upon Talley's return, and
when in sight of tbe body, he saw a
colored woman going towards it,
but she, as soon as she was discovered,
turned and hastened away. The body
was taken to the City Hall where a post
mortem examination was held by Dr.
F. W. Potter, CJty Physician, which
developed the fact that tbe child was
alive at birth and that there were
marks of violence to show that it had
been killed. It was a female child and
evidently colored. Coroner Jacobs
was notified and an inquest was held at
3 o'clock this afternoon and their ver
diet had not been rendered when our
report closed at 4 p. m
