I did not forget tbtt I bad in my charge ten thousand dollars' worth of diamonds, which, possibly, some clever thief might have bis eyes on even flow, . kept tbe valise tigbtlv locked between my feet, and did not allow' my vieil- auce to relax even when I was the most as&idncus in my attention to my fair companion.

"Wby, Jack Barcombe, this bag is filled witb old newspapers and bricks ! It's not your valine at all !" . I sank into a chair, Unable to utter a word.

Tbe fol lowing statement, which will be brought to tbe attention of the Iloot-e of Representatives in a, day or two, will serve to emphasize, and at the same time illustrate, the strong de termination of tbe white Democracy of Alabama to have free elections and preserve tbe purity cf the ballot box: . In the I Vth Congressional District of Alabama tbe registered white vote is 6,800, aod the registered colored vote is 23,000. At the Congression al eleciion iu 1875 the Republicans cast about 16,000 and tbe Democrats 9,68o votes. Last July, the Hon. Jeremiah Haralson, a colored Re publican, who bad served in Con gress, announced himself as a Re publican candidate for Representa tive at tbe election ensuing in No vember. The Democrat ic candidate, General C. M. Shelley, and bis friends, at once sought to drive liar alsoo from tbe Geld by intimidation. The leading Democratic newspaper. published at Selena, in an editorial addressed to him personally, said: Now, while we will not advise anyone to shoot vou, we are free .to se y tbat if you continue in your pres ent course we . shall shed no tears over your demieo. We understand tbat yon were supplied by tbe Radi cal Executive Committee with funds to return to this district and whoop 'em np in tie style we have alluded to. If this is so, you bad better use ycur unexpended balance in getting away from this county and section. Mr. llaralson s coeuce was that of being tbe Republican candidate for Congress in a district wbicb, iu a fair election, would Lave given an overwhelming Republican majority. be; tbe vote was canvassed it was declared that Sbelley, Democrat, had received 8,514 votes and Haralson C.olO Haralson served a notice of contest, and began to make a list of bis witnesses. At this point he met with unexpected trouble. No notary public it other officer authorized to administer oaths could be found tor a long time wbo would tak the depo- siiious of the witnesses. The officers were all Democrat?, and urged thai if they were to perform this duty their bu&iiiees would suffer. At length a circuit jude, a Republican, was found wbo consented to act, and a large number cf witnesses were summoned. As soon as they had appeared aod the examination had been begun, Sbelley and his Demo cratic irietiua procured indictments aguiutt all of tLfcai ou charges trumped-up Lr tho occasion, aud they were effected and thrown into iail. bere tfcey remained until tbe time within w bicb ibeir depositions could be of service in tbe election contest had extiired, when tbey were releas ed. Haralson's attorney was alsa ind'eud n a fulie charge aud driven from tbe Slate. A mob of white Democrat assailed Haralson and compelled Lim also to leave tbe ate. , In Lowndes county where there is a lave Republican majority, it is charged thai the election officers ia a number cf precincts were bribed by Sbelley to seud in tbe election returns unsigned, bicb tbey did, and ibe returns were ot course rejected by tbe Couutr Canvassers. In other precincts, vr herd there were only ten or a dizen white voters and ten tioies as many colored voters, the polls a ere not opened at all. Mr. Haral son complains tbat although a large number of the inspectors of elections were indicted in the United Staiee Court, tbe District Attorney refuted to aliow bim to examine the papers ; but be avers ibat a number of these indicted ifSciala were members cf ibe Grand Jury wbicb indicted hi attorney and witnesses on false char ge. This case cannot be investigated by the Committee on Elections, be cause, as Mr. Haralson will claim, all bis lawtul means of establishing bis rigbi to a seal in the House have beeu overthrown aud rendered nu gatory by tbe action of General Sbel ley, the sitting member, aud bis friends ; because it is impossible un der exiating law to take deooaiions in the case "by reso of the fixed and avowed purpose cf tbe political and personal friends cf Gen. SbeUej io the district U deny la tbe lreed men all civil ui political rights, and to set at defiunce all laws which pro vide any remedy lor such conduct on their part"; and beeause cf the charge cf bribery against Gen. Sbel ley, wbicb if proved will disqualify bim from holding bis seat as a Rep resentative. Mr. Haralson will therefore ask tbe House to investi gate tbe matter. .Mr. Sbelley, tbe silting member, was a brigadier-general in the Con federate army, and in tbe present Congress fs a staunch supporter of ibe revolutionary schemes of the Democrats, although, so far as he himselt is concerned, he appears to bave found it easy to evade and prac tically to annul tbe taws lor the pro tection of tte ballot-box.

S Court, Chicago, tells of an occurrence, show ing bow tbe law was administered in tbe neighborhood where be lived in an early day, in llllinois. It occur red at Doner's Grove, in DuPage couny. Pierce Downer was an early set tler at this place. He was a maa of considerable force of character, but ot a somewhat turbulent disposition In early days in this country ill kinds of produce was very cheap, and would scarcely pay for tbe rais ing. One season Downer turned his at tention pretty exclusively to corn and pork, alleging that the extensive man ufacture of lard il tbat was likely to occur, would greatly advance tbe price of pork. This idea, in wbicb mauy or bis neighbors did not oncur, was his constant bobby at all social gatherings.

This exasperated Downer's alreadv over vexed spirit to a pcini byood endurance, be thereupon rushed upon at tor wuo a buck ne oad used in chasing bis bogs, and gave bim what in common speech is called a thresh ing. "There," says Downer, "that's what I think of it." Taylor proceeded to Jjbri Walker, a neighboring jusiice of tbe peace, and bad Downer arreeted and broosf hi up oa a charge cf assault aod bat tery.

Ha did not like tbat bis rival should get a commission iu prefer ence to himself, although it was ouiy for a signboard. "Is it to be a wild one or a tame one?" be inquired. "A wild one, to be sore." "With or without a chaia ?" agin asked tbe painter. ' Without a cbaio," was the brief reply- "Well, I will paint yoa a wild bear without a ckaia tor tea dollars," said the painter. Tbe bargain was struck, the paint er set to work, and iu due time sect borne tbe signboard, on which he bad painted a huge brown bear of the most ferocious aspect. Tbe signboard was the admiration of tbe whole neighborhood, and drew plenty of customers to tbe inn ; and the inn-keeper knew not whether to congratulate himself most upon being ia possession of so attractive a sigo, or on having secured it for tbe small sum of tea dollars. Everything went en thrivingly for three weeks, when one night there arose one of tfc,ose vi olent storms of rain &nd wind, thun der and lightning, which are so com mon in North America, and which pass over with all most aa much ra pidity as they rise. When the ina Veeper. awoke the next moraing, the sun . was shiaintr, and tbe birds were singing, all tra ces ot the storm had passed away. He looked up anxiously to ascertain if tbe sign was safe. There it was sore enough, swinging to and fro as usual, bat the bear had disappeared. The inn-keeper could hardly believe his eyes ; full of anger and surprise he ran to the painter and related what bad happened. The painter looked op coolly from bis work. ' "Was it a wild bear or a tame one J" "A wild one." "Was it chained or not?" "I guess not." . "Then," cried the painter, triump phantly, "bow could yoa expect a wild bear to remain in such a storm as that of last night, with no chain on?"- 7 ,Tbe innkeeper bad nothing ta aay against so conclusive aa argument, and finally agreed to give the painter fifteen dollars o paint him a wild bear, with a chain, tbat would not ake to tbe woods in the next storm. For the benefit of oar unprofessional, readers, it may be necessary to men tion that the roagish painter had painted, the Erst hear in water eolors, which had been washed away by tbe rain i the second bear was painted in oil colors, and was therefore able to withstand tbe weather. ; Dead potato bags are sold as cari osities ia London at $1'23 each. fVlM raeBMuactea, Aa American, who has been study iug tbe life, habits and traits of tbe CociEncbes, thinks there are at pres ent from 10,000 w 12,000, of whom . 2.500 are warrior.
