The gentle man who administered the punish ment w ;us aware that if the boy did tell his lather it would be embar rassing, still he was in for it. and inuld do nothing else than wait and see how matters came out.

She sailel from Hayt; ten days ago in the .-teanislnp Normnn die. It is her first visit o the United States. Mr. Lang-ton said: "She is a native of France, and al though just passing the so-called meridian of lite forty years is still a remarkably handsome woman. President Salomon met her in Paris, where he was stationed tor a num ber of years as the diplomatic rep resentative of his Government. Courtship and in. image followed. Salomon's color not being consider ed a serious objection in Prance. Mrs. Salomon, it is said, presides over the society at the llaytian capital with a good deal of grace. Her stay m New York will be short, a.s she sails for I lay ti on the 10th." Said Mr. Langston: "Hayti is a country capable of great develop ments. The climate is perlect and and the soil is rich. There is a very friendly feeling there for the United States, and our trade with Hayti has doubled within the l.u-t few years. It is important that this friendly feeling should continue. Hayti is at present solving a great problem. It is the pow er of the colored race to govern themselves. Under the Constitution ol IIuti no white man is eligible for citizen ship in the Kepublic, and no white man can own property there. P.verythmg is m the hands nf the colored people. It is found to be working very successfully. There has been no trouble since hl. and no likelihood ot a future outbreak- The business and commer cial enterprises of Il.ntt are largely managed by whites, principalis French and Americans.

Prom time to time the thing has been repeated by the vulgar and the ignorant, and the friends of Mr. Davis have been willing to let hi pass undeserving their at tention. Put when it appears that sour noble and generous spirit is about to record your belief in that falsi' and foolish story, and your honored hand is alKiut to pass it down the line of authentic history, every '.admirer ot your name throughout our widespread South, as well as every friend of Mr, Davis, would unite in respectfully and earnest begging you to with hold your hand. There lies before me at this moment a eon tidential letter from Mr. Das is. giving me, at my partic ular leij'.iest. a circumstantial ac count ot his capture and denying most jxisitively that lie either made any attempt to escape after Innng surprised by his pursuers, or dis guised himself in woman's clothing. A similar denial was afterwards made by Mr. Harrison, the private secretary of Mr. Pas is, and by the Hon. Messrs. Keagan and Lublxick. who weic then in his company.

Mryan said when he started he was about out of meat, and he had to have some venison; the crowd have not reported correctly yet: when they do we. will report. The farmers around Cum Branch are generally good ones, and most of them have pretty fair crops. They complain - .me of bad seasons in the start and dry w eather in Augu-t. but their crops of cotton look well, and the corn, peas and fiotatoes. with some rice, will all make fair turn outs. Silas Venters. Ned Muirel. L. Newbold and Walter Mur rill's crops we have seen in part, and can say they need not grumble. Cotton picking will commence in a day or two. Some new buildings going up. G. R. Venters and Walter Murrill both have tine houses going up. the former com- pleted all but the painting; the latter will ooon be finished. We asied if some one were not going to get mar ried, as both of these gents were single men. George Robert said not. but Wal ter said, "you bet I am if any one will have me. " and we guess some one will. Thos. H. McGee is the contractor and ' builder of these houses: he is a good one and loves cider to death and destruc- . tion. Silas and G. R. are brick making : ; they have a large kiln burning now-, and Walter Murrill is also putting up a kiln. Tom McGee says Silas and G. R. don't set them right, and is going to show them how the gamier hops in set- ; ting up no right in Walter Murrill's k iln next week. Stonewall Items. I met William Gaskins: he is as clever and as accommodating as ever. There has been an addition to Stone wall's population, and F. P- Cherry is the happy possessor of a tine girl. Benj. Thompson is fitting up a new store for his fall trade, and is looking for a steam power to run a gin with this winter in the same place. The friends of Elijah Langley, of Smith creek, will be pleased to learn that lie has weathered his severe attack of hemorrhagic fever land is able to be up again. Sheriff D. B.

The prospect is there will be a change shortly I have two Leconte pear trees that w ere set out last spring two years ago. and they both bore this summer (how is that.- . and I got a Duchess de Angolina pear o:f a dwarf tree that weighed 21 ounces and measured 13- inches in cir cumference. I had one a few years ago that sveighed -4 ounces. The committee who are intrusted with the improvement of the Methodist Church of this place have had work commenced for the repairs on the ' hurch. svhich, when completed, will add much to the looks and comfort of the church. The pastor has left for a more healthy clime, and leaves his charge to take care of their spiritual as well as their worldly affairs. There is considerable sickness in this section. Eugene Gilford was very low with hemorrhagic fever, and on Friday lost his infant child, and on Saturday morning John Pate lost one of his little ones and had two Others sick.

A com promise was agreed upon today which terminates the strike at the mines of the Warrior coal company against the in- troduction of Italian labor, and they will resume work at once. A meeting of operators, called here for September !ti. will deal largely with the labor question. AN INTERESTING SL'lT. Chaui.otte. N. C Sept. 10. A suit was decided today in the superior court involving points of interest ft the general public. In January, 1S5, ; James G. Holmes, late of Charleston, now of Baltimore, was ejected from the '. only first-class passenger car of a train on the Carolina Central R. R. and forced j to ride for some Ihours in a car filled with tobacco smoke. He claimed dam ages in the sum of 5,000 and the jury awarded him $475. MOKE TROUBLE FEAKEP. Rock Springs. Wyoming Territory, Sept. 10. Seven hundred Chinamen i have returned here under an escort of, four companies of troops. The miners, j it is alleged, threaten to destroy the I company 's buildiDgs, all of which are under a strong guard. Serious trouble is feared as soon as the miners think they have the opportunity to carry out their threat. CHOLERA. Madrid, September, 10. Throughout ! Spain yesterday there were 1,569 new cases of cholera and 072 deaths re ported. Rome, September. 10. A few cases of cholera are reported from Parma. At Palermo the officials returns for AVed nesday give five cases and two deaths; but other reports show that there were really nineteen cases and five deaths. The rest of Sicily is healthy. Many Italian cities are asking for the estab lishment of quarantine against Sicily. A NEW TARIFF BILL. Washington, Sept. 10. Representa tive Mills, it is reported here, has been engaged the entire summer in the nre paration'of a tariff bill, which he pro poses introducing soon after the con vening of Congress. It is stated that the measure will provide for the re-, duction of the revenue to such a sum as is necessary to cover the government expenses. It is proposed that this reve nue shall be derived in the main from the class of taxable articles known as luxuries, and that taxation on the neces saries shall be reduced to the lowest possible sum. SPA1X HAS NOT REPLIED. Berlin. Sept. 10. It is semiofficially announced that Spain has not yet replied to Germany's suggestion to refer the Caroline Islands question to a friendly power for arbitation, nor has Spain re plied to Germany V demand for repar ation for the insult to the German em bassy at Madrid Saturday before last. STARTLING SMALL-POX RETURNS. Montreal, Sept. 8. There were twelve deaths from small-pox here yes terday and twelve cases were verified. It has been' decided by the Board of Health to build a new wing to the Small-pox Hospital immediately and to place the institution in the charge of the Grey Nuns, paying them for their ser vices. The newly appointed provincial Health Board met today. House to house vaccination is to be inaugurated at once, and eight or ten doctors will form a board of compulsory vaccina tion. The following statistics of the small-pox mortality here are vouched for: June deaths, 22; July deaths, 52; August deaths, 250; total, 325. Of these 270 were French Canadian?, twenty-seven Irish Catholics, two Scotch Catholics, eighteen Protestants, three English Catholics, and four un known. Of the 270 French Canadian deaths twenty-nine only were adults, and of the total deaths forty-five only have been adults. Seventy per cent of the deaths among children have been under five years of age. Only twenty six persons over twenty years of age died of small-pox in the three months mentioned. A Toronto medical depu tation is here to take steps to prevent the importation of the disease into Toronto. A tent hospital will be estab lished at Cornwall, Ont., and other hospitals along the lines of railways if found necessary. SULLIVAX DENIES THAT THE FIGHT WITH RYAN IS OFF. Boston. Sept. 8. John L. Sullivan said today: "Thursday night I will leave for Cincinnati, where I play as pitcher in a game of base ball which comes off on Sunday. That evening I will return home and put myself in trim to meet Paddy Ryan on the 29th." "Then there is no truth in the rumor that you would not meet Ryan." -.None Whatever. I will meet him. The fight will be in either Jersey City or Hoboken. After that I am through with all these duffers, and Jgo on the road with my minstrel company. WHY THEY SVEBE CANCELLED. W ashington, Sept S. It is stated at the Treasury Department that the only signifiicance of the recent cancellation of .? 15.000,000 of silver certificates lies in the fact, as shown by expe rience, that the certificates of large de nomination are practically .worthless as a circulating medium. The notes de stroyed were S500 and SI ,000 certificates. , and it is proposed, in case they shall be required, to replace them with S10, $20, s?50 and S100 certificates, as the latter are much better adapted for general circulation.

Sept. a Au unconfirmed report reaches here from Santa Rosa. Mex.. that an incipient revolution has broken out in that place, and that a conilict has taken place be tween the authorities and revolution ists, resulting in the loss of several lives on both -ides. The news is scarcely credited here, for it is not believed that the revolutionary spirit could be con fined to one city only, and no outbreaks have occurred at any point having com munication with the outer world. It 1- probable if the outbreak has occurred n is the pent up dissatisfaction svith the local administration of affairs. The rumor causes no little uneasiness among old Mexicans who have witne-s-od the outbreaks before. They say the sacred fires of revolution are always smouldering in the mountain towns and villages of Mexico: that the fierce and hardy mountaineers of Ooahuila and Durang... Jalisco, are to Mexico proper what tile iioths were to Italy, and that no nian knows the day of their up springs. Santa Rosa is an important mining town of Coahuila. situated on the south side of the San Marcon Moun tain range, and forty miles from the nearest station of the Mexican Inter i:ationl Railway.

S.MVEL SEUVICK REFORM ; 11 roil DpmocratH Opportunely. lierniil SS'nsli i niiton 1'tlor.l A number of prominent officials were assembled at the residence of a membtr of the Cabinet rfot long since; when the subject of civil service was brought pj and each gave his views a th merits of the reform, bo v the law worked and what benefit it had ben to the several departments of the government. The Cabinet offices whoso guests they wer said that the classified service had not been touched in his department. "Nor in mine," said one of his Cabi net colleagues. "Why, sir, I have been spending nights in my office looking over the records of the clerical force under me. and I find that ninety per cent, of the clerks are Democrats. Yes, sir, Democrats, and have always been so; that is, judging from letters on fide. don't think I could threaten to turn one out for cause without having a Demo cratic Senator or a Democratic Congressman-elect at my offiee next day to pro test against such cruel treatment to a highly respected constituent or friend. If they did not come in person they would telegraph or write to me. I speak from experience." The other officials laughed heartily at the remark and declared that the law which protected so many Democrats in office ought to be rigidly enforced. The Enemies in the Camp. The Pension Office is not the only place here where enemies swarm the camp in friendly disguise not by con siderable. They live, thrive and leak from the Capitol to the White Uouse. A friend of mine was in the office of one of the Auditors of the Treasury yester day, and began to talk of a matter that had a slight Democratic flavor. The Auditor requested him not to disensa the matter for a few moments, and so he waited. Presently the clerk, who was in the room, went out, and the Au ditor remarked: "I have to be more careful than you can imagine. I am surrounded on all hands by Republicans. They are not in sympathy with any work or with what the Democratic party has pledged the country to do. Instead of helping the Administration to do as Vice-PresidentHendrickssaid we would do, viz.: 'Examine the books,' they are trying to cover up everything and im pede the work of investigation and dis covery. They are full of excuses for the officials of their partv who have gone." Waxh. Special to Courier-Journal. Public Baths. Some of the most splendid works of ancient Home wore its public baths. Their remains are today the wonder of all who visit the im perial city. It is evident that the U-omans under the emperors were a more cleanly people than the or dinary dweller in oar modern large cities. It is noticeable that in all capitals of the world today there is a disposition to imitate the Romans. Public baths are recognized as be ing as essential as common schools. Public health can be preserved -in no better way than in providing means for keeping the mass of the population clean. We are redis covering also a fact well knownto the Romans, that hot air and vapor baths have a therapeutic value. They cure diseases of various kinds. The public baths of Vienna almost vie with some of the Roman baths, and are the finest in the world. The building is situated in the heart of the city, is! 570 feet in length and 17C in width, and has accommodations for 1,5(0 persons at one time. There are also accom modations for women. In New York and other of our large cities free baths in summer were first looked upon as an experiment, but are now regarded as a necessity", and their popularity yearly increases. Other large cities, such as London and Paris, are hindered in providing bathing facilities, because of the difficulty of procuring sufficient water; but from the tendencies of the age, it is very clear that before the twentieth century has far ad vanced, the public baths of the modern world will vie with those of ancient Home, not only in gen eral utility but in splendor.
