How the thing was Done.

We find in the Sandusky Register, com
munication, giving description of Locofo-
co Convention in which Signal Taylor, late
Free Soiler, figured. Mr.. Taylor gave the
following incite into the manner in which the
weak sisters of the Free Soil party were trans
ferred over TO the Locofocos The celebrated
Dr. Townsend and himself, happening to meet
at Columbus on the day of said Convention,
and not being Delegates, took occasion to at
tend the Convention, Mr.. Taylor says:-
'We proposed to throw ourselves upon the
Convention, and run the risk of being censur-
ed at home We did SO, and we obtained the
adoption of these resolutions
Upon the adoption of these resolutions, that
was brought about by a0e, (Taylor q Town
sen0 the Locofoco portion of the Free Soilers
passed over to their former party, and left the
Wings who were induced to join them from
what they considered pure motives, to keep
up its organization But we are glad to see
that the Wing Free Soilers are beginning to
see how they have been duped by such men
as Taylor, Townsend, Chase q Co., and that
many are returning to their ancient faith, full
Ily satisfied that the Wing party, is the only
reliable opponent to the extension of slavery

EA practical farmer informs the Hart
ford Times that in taking up fence that had
been so fourteen years, he noticed that some
of the posts remained nearly sound, while
others had rotted off at the bottom. While
looking for the cause he found that those
that were set limb part down, or inverted
from the way they grew, were solid. Those
that were set as they grew were rotted off
This is fact worthy the attention of far

DEsERrIoN. Niagara Democrat states
that, last Monday, about 3 O'Clock in the NOR
ming, FIVE Scotch soldiers, belonging to one Of
the British regiments now stationed in Cana
da, embarked in an open boat at Toronto and
made their way over Lake Ontario, for the
American shore on the opposite side. Not be-
ing familiar with the lake, and wishing to avoid
coming across British steamers they took a
circuitous route, and rowed over 80 miles un-

Let me hint little more to you concerning

If you treat the teacher this manner land
this is but faint picture of the truth in too
many cases) he will leave you if he is not
fool, and ifhe stays your school is ruined.
1t is well known that in some districts in
this county all hope of having good school
is destroyed, by the syranical and foolish IN
reference of parents in the internal arrange
ments of the school. Treat your teacher with
respect and confidence. Be not too ready 10
hear and sustain any complaint which children
bring home with them. Keep an eye on the
teacher and the school. but not to find faultor
to hinder, but to encourage and to strengthen.

of a secret treaty for preserving Cuba to Spain.
In letter dated Sept 5th, he says.
1t is remarkable, but not well known fact,
that, in the archieyes of our Government We
have an enlightenment made, in Jackson's ad-

not be siezed by either party, and that Spain
shall remain in undisturbed possession Of the

BOUNTY LAND CAsEs.-There were S452
bounty land cases reported upon in the Third
Auditors Office during the month of August.
The Pension Office has issued in all since
January last about 10000 land warrants, un-
der the act of September 1850.
We understand that numerous claims for
arrearages of pay in the war of 1912 have
arisen since the passage of the bounty land
act; and, although not one in fifty is allowable
still the labor Of investigation is necessarily
very heavy. Washington Intenigencer.

in which that old hero gives his opin-

Wayne's letter, which is dated Oc-

THE RETURN OF SPRING.

Deer as the dove, whose waiting wing
The green leaf ransomed from the main,
Thy genial glow, returning Spring,
Comes to our shore again;
For thou hast been a wanderer long,
On many fair and foreign strand,
In balm and beauty, sun and song,
Passing from land to land.
Thou bring'st the blossoms TO :he bee,
To earth robe of emerald dye,
The leahet to the naked tree,
And rainboR in the sky;
/ feel thy blest benign control
The pulses Of my youth restore;
Opening the sp-ing of sense and soul,
TO love and joy once more,
viii not people thy green bowers,
With sorrows pale and spectre band;
Or blend with thine the faded flowers
or memory's distant land;
For thou vert surely never given
To wnke regret from pleasures gone;
But like an angel sent from Heaven,
To sooth creations groan.
Then, while the groves thy garlands twine,
Thy spirit breathes in flower and tree,
My heart shall kiudle at thy shrine,
And worship God in thee:
And in some calm, sequesfered spot,
While listening TO thy choral strain,
Past griefs shall be awhile fnrgnt,
And pleasures bloom again.
