TIieLFIag of Hampton's Friends.
Chicago Inter Ocean.
When it was announced that Wade
Hampton had been elected United
States Senator the Confederate veter
ans of a Georgia town ran up the reb
el flag over their hail, and indulged
in other marked expressions of delight
over the honor bestowed upon their
old leader. These men acted in the
name of their society, 'The Confeder
ate Survivors,' and as comrades of
Wade Hampton, exrebel cavalryman.
As ex-Confederates rejoicing over the
triumph of an ex-Confederate, they
flaunted the rebel flag in the faces of
patriotic men, as they did whtn, un
der the command of Hampton", they
met the Union forces on the field of
battle. There was an excuse for wav
ing the rebel flag then. The act sig
nified that those who gathered under
the flag were rebels, and the flag it
self emblemed their disposition and
determination to destroy the govern
ment. Understanding this, Union
people treated all menwho waved a
rebel flag as enemies, and it only re
quired the display of the flag of the
enemy to bring on a conflict.
Now those old; comrades of Wade
Hampton pretend to be friends of the
government, and boaat of the 'gener-
oub impulses, patriotic aims, and ex
alted aspirations' of the newly elected
South Carolina Senator. They are
represented in Congress by men wio
have taken an oath of fidelity to the
United States, and they themselves,
when they left the army at the time
of the surrender, were doubtless under
parole to act in no way as enemies of
the common country. There is now
no excuse for the waving of a flag rep
resenting a purpose hostile to the gov
ernment, unless they still desire to be
counted as rebels rejoicing over the
triumph of a rebel, and yet the Dem
ocratic papers, in mentioning the cir
cumstance, say 'Now let the bloody
Bhirt organs howl.'
If the Southern people are loyal to
the Union, as they claim, why should
not they protest"against such action
as well as people in the North ? Why
should not Democratic journals con
demn it as well as Radical Republi
can papers? It is as much an offense
to patriotic people in the South as to
those in the north, and ought to be re
buked by all. But will it be ?
If it is a repre8entative''act' and a
natural expression of the real senti
ments of Wade Hampton's old com
rades, it becomes more significant,
and people are not to be sneered out
of taking cognizance of it. A loyal
people, as is well known, are very
sensitive on the question of flags.
The defiant flaunting of a foreign flag
in the faces of American citizens is
always resented. The rebel flag, if it
means anything at all, means more of
hostility toourestablished institutions
than any foreign flag, and there is no
reason why it should be tolerated.
Unless Wade Hampton Is as much a
rebel as ever, and his old comrades
rebels at heart, there is no reason for
the display of a rebel flag in rejoicing
over his election. If the flag repre
sents the feelings of those who favor
ed Wade Hampton's election, he
should when he takes his seat in the
Senate, refuse to take the oath of fi
delity to the Constitution and the
government, and joining with his ex
Confederate associates in the Senate,
demand that the stars and bars be
run up over the Capitol. Of course
this would be attempted revolution
and rebellion, but it would be consist
ent with the action of the Biohmond
hiussars in running a reoei nag up
over their hall.
There is no disposition to hold the
entire South responsible forsuch dem
onstrations, except in so far as the
men disposed to indulge in suoh out
bursts find encouragement and sup
port in the general tone of Southern
sentiment and opinion. Such dem
onstrations do not take place in the
North, because publio sentiment is
emphatically against them. It is dif
ficult to resist the conclusion that were
publio sentiment in Georgia such as it
should be no waving of rebel flags
would take place in that State. Inter
Ocean.
The bread on the waters has return
ed to a young lady In Clappertown,
Penn., after a few years. On Decem
ber 2S, 1873, she met on the railroad
train, a lady who was very ill, and she
kindly ministered unto her, taking
care of her and accompanying ber to
her place of destination. When they
parted the sick woman offered to re
ward the young lady for her kindness
and attention, but she would take
nothing. The old lady wrote down
the name and address, nodded famili
arly to her and said, 'You will be paid
some day.' The young lady never
saw her chance acquaintance again,
but the sum of $90,000 has recently
been bequeathed to her. The old la
dy had no relatives in this country,
and left all her money to the girl that
had befriended her.

Sardines.
To those of our readers who are fond
of these fish, the process by which
they are caught, salted, and prepared
for European and American markets,
will be interesting reading :
From their name, It is often thought
that they comefrom Sardinia, whence
the chief supply originally came,
though for a long while they have
been mainly caught on the coasts of
Brittany (Bretagne) where thousands
of men, women and ohildren are em
ployed in the business. Many fami
lies have lived by the fisheries for
generations, and they and their labors
are always objects of interest to
strangers visiting the picturesque
province. Their vessels are generally
of eight to ten tons each, and have a
crew of six to twelve persons, who go
six to nine miles from land, and
when they see their prey they spread
their gill nets, scattering their bait,
consisting of eggs and flesh of cod,
mackerel and other flesh, and soon
haul them in in quantities. Some are
salted on board, but the most of them
are carried ashore, the best selected
and their heads cut off, are well wash
ed and sprinkled with fine salt. A
few hours later they are arranged in
almost perpendicular rows on frames,
and these are immersed again and
again in the beBt toiling (olive) oil.
When sufficiently cured, the oil Is
drained off on zinc-covered tables
slooping toward a central groove,
through which the oil runs Into a ves
sel for the purpose. The fish are then
packed in the small tin boxes so well
known to consumers, by women and
ohildren, sitting around the tables,
and, when packed, are filled up with
fresh oil, and soldered down by men.
The boxes are next put in an iron
basket, and plunged into a covered
boiler of water, and boiled from half
an hour to an hour and a half, accord
ing to their size. After drying, label
ing and placing in wooden cases,
they are ready for shipment. It is in
teresting to observe the industry, skill
and economy of the Brenton fishers,
who, though somewhat rude, are
sturdy, hardy, independent, and as
unlike the typical French as any peo
ple of the same nationality oan well
be. They are so thrifty and energetic
that many of them have gained what
is to them a handsome independence,
and they deserve it richly.
A Pleasant Story of Lincoln.
While I was in congress, during
four years, I had frequent interviews
with President Lincoln, and never,
during all that time, did I hear him
utter an unkind sentiment. I was
told by Secretary Stanton that at the
first cabinet meeting afterjthe surren
der, the question as to what should be
done with the confederate leaders
was under discussion. Some of the
cabinet were for hanRinsr, some for
imprisonment, and so on. During
the discussion the president sat at the
end of the table, with his legs twisted
up, and said not a word. At last some
one appealed to him for his views.
The president's reply was : "Gentle
men, there has been blood enough
Bpilled; not another drop shall be
shed, if I can help it." Said Mr.
Stanton: "This reply was like a
thunderbolt thrown into the cabinet,
and not a word of opposition was of
fered. A man who could use such
language as that, at such a time, could
truly subscribe himself: "With mal
ice toward none and charity for all."

A little boy, whoso father was a
rather immoderate drinker of the
moderate kind, one day sprained his
wrist, and his -mother utilized the
whisky in her husband's bottle to
bathe the little fellow's wrist with.
After a while the pain began to abate,
and the child surprised bis mother by
by exclaiming, "Ma, has pa got a
sprained throat?"
The religious newspapers of Eng
land are discussing the momentous
question, "Ought olergymen to wear
moustaches?" A cotemporary thinks
that as cold weather comes on they
should, and on daysof extreme sever
ity they might add a pair of trousers
and a thick vest.
An old gentleman of 84, and his
bride aged 82, entered a railway car
the other day and took a Beat by the

ing: Old gent, to his bride "Who's

THE ISTER OCEAN.
Weekly, $1.15 ; Semi-Weekly, $2.50;
Daily, $10.00.
The Inter Ocean, as a political jour
nal, stands confessedly at the head of
the Republican press of the West, and
as a reliable newspaper has a reputa
tion second to none. While it has
never wavered in the support of par
ty principles, has never failed to do
Its full duty in critical times, and has
never .hesitated to strike bard blowB
in defense of the Republican cause, it
has never ceased to be a good news
paper, independent of all political and
party considerations.
With the recorl of seven years' con
scientious work and efficient service
behind it as a certificate of character.
The Inter Ocean enters upon the work
of a new year; enters upon the work
of a year the most important, per
haps, in its history, and the most mo
mentous in the history of the Bepub
Hcan party. Lines are already form
ing for the great battle of 18S0, and
the country has never felt the need of
staunch and able supporters of princi
ple for the sake of principle as it will
in the coming year. It has been the
good fortune of the Inter Ocean to
lead in the formation of publio opin
ion, and to have a tremendous follow
ing. It has maintained tbisposition
as leader because of its unquestioned
loyalty to the fundamental principles
of the party, its boldness injdefending
them, r i r itsfairnessin disoissing
great political questions. As tke In
ter Ocean has sounded the key-rote of
the contests In past years, Reoubli
cans will look to it as a faithful guide
and leader in the coming year. And
they will not be disappointed. The
paper will stand, as it always has
stood, the organ of no faction or
clique, battling in the front rani for
the principles that have made the
country what it is.
The Inter Oceanexpects to reteive
from enemies and opponents inrd
blows, and to return them with itter
est. From Republicans and frienis it
expects only such consideration and
fairness as any political journal nay
claim at the bands of those Interested
In the success of the the party anl in
the triumph of party principles. The
issues are sharply defined. On the
one side is the solid South aided by
the Democratic party ; on the otler
the Republican party. Naturally at
such a time Republicans will turn to
a paper able, aggressive, and of in
questioned loyalty. All that we ak
is that they judge the Inter Ocean ty
its own utterances, and not by wh.t
Democratio organs and envious rivaa
say of it.
Outside of party considerations Be
publicans will choose the best news
paper. And in this particular the Th
ter Oceanhas no superiors. It is ir
every sense of the word a nationa
newspaper, presenting home and for
eign news in attractive shape, and ac-i
companying it with intelligent com
ment.
It will be as enterprising as any
its contemporaries, more accurate
more discriminating. For two ya
arsr
its cable dispntcheB have been fuJer
and of higher character than thoseof
any other Western journal ; its Wash
ington and foreign correspondent
more readable, covering more topra
of special and general interest, aio
its home correspondence more varid
and more complete. All these depai
ments will be continued, with sui
improvements added as experieioe
may suggest and increased facilifes
for collecting news allow.
Independent of politico and ne's,
men want a symmetrical, interestig,
and wholesome journal for the famly
and the home. They will find suh
a paper In the Inter Ocean, which e
votes more attention than any ot'er
political newspaper to departmetB
prepared and conducted with be
wants of home and family In viw.
This applies to Agricultural, Dones
tic, Educational, Scientific, and Social
matters.
The Curiosity Shop, coverinean-
swers to all sorts of political, scieufificl
and general questions, will rece5ve(
more attention, even, than in jast
years, and will be a complete encyclo
pedia of information not accessible
outside the great reference IibrarWsof
large cities. In this department the
Inter Ocean has been without a rival
and, realizing the importance cf the
department, the publishers have made
arrangements not only to maintain its
high character, buttomake.it aniwer
more completely the demands of sub
scribers.
The Home Department has with
in the paBt year assumed a new cnar
aoter and a new importance. It h tht
outgrowth of the Inter Ocean ptlioy
of fosteringhome interests, and, vhile
it is unique in its freshness anl its
plan. It is unequaled in Its inte;ests
and in the amount of suggestive md
practical information on Home top
ics. The Agricultural Department
will be in obarge of one of the met
experienced agricultural editors of tie
West, and will give each week timer
hints, suggestions, and discussions cf
practical interests.
The Veterinary Department
haB become a standard authorty
among horsemen, and is republished
from week to week in many of tie
Farm and Stock Journals of the coun
try. All questions of subscribers ai
to diseases and treatment of stock an
answered withoutcharge by a distin
guished and experienced specialist.
This department will be maintained
at its present high standard.
The Woman's Kingdom, devotee
to woman's interest and work, will b
continued in the generous and conar-
vative spirit that has made it so pipu
lar. The Commercial Department
has had a reputation for reiiablity
and completeness all its own. I twill
remain in charge of the same edtor,
and will be made up with the vnnts
of the readers in view.
In Fiction the Inter Ocean wilpre
sent a serial by a popular Westeri au
thor, covering ground in the Wes not
touched upon hitherto by writeB of
.fiction, and replete with incidontand
adventure. In short stories, sketch
es, and general literary miscellany
the Inter Ocean will pander to no low
taste, but will give thebest.
In these times of depression and
scarcity of mouey.Jpeople will turn
to the paper that is the cheapest. To
meet this demand the the priceof
the Inter Ocean has been reduced to
$1.15 for The Weekly, $2 50 for The
Semi-Weekly, and $10 for The Dally.
In short the Inter Ocean will be a bet
ter paper than ever before, and will
be furnished for less money.

Their first apparent
effect is to increase tho
appetite by causing tho

by their tonic action
on the digestive or

are produced. 4

Ur.I. Guy Lewis, of Fulton Ark., writes; "One
year ago I was taken sick, a friend argued eo
Btronglyinfavorof Tutt's Pills that I was in-
aucea to use tnem. Hever did medicine have a
happier effect than in my case. After a practico
of a quarter of a century I proclaim them the

scribed them in my practico ever since." "
SUPERIORITY OF
TUTPS PILLS.
Tiey are compounded from medicinal substan
ces that are positively free from say propertieB
that can in the least degree injure the most deli
cate organization. They search, cleanse, purify,
and Invigorate the entire system. By relieving
the engorged liver, they cleanse the blood from
poisonous humors, and thus impart renewed
health and vitality to the body, causing the bow
els to act naturally, without which no one can
feelwelL - '
A TORPID LIVER
Is the fruitful source of many diseases, prominent
among which are Dyspepsia, Sick-Headache,
Cosiiveness, Dysentery, Bilious Fever, Ague and
Fever, Jaundice, Piles, Rheumatism, Kidney
Complaint, Colic, etc
Tutt's Pills exert a direct and powerful lnfhw
ence on the Liver, and will, with certainty, relieve
that important organ from disease, and restore
its normal functions. "
