THE no NJ + J0U RNAL
"Plcdsod TO no party's arbitrary sway,
We follow truth whcre'cr she loads the way"
An ELOQUENT Retort.

In his late able speech in the Senate
Of the United States, Mr.. Hammond, Of
South Carolina, made the following clio.
qnent and whitening rctort upon Seward
for his remark that the South had always
controlled the Union heretofore, but that
the sceptre was to part from it now for
ever: "You complain (said Mr.. Ham
mond) of the rule Of the South; that has
. been another cause that has preserved
you. We have kept the Government
conservative to the great purpose Of Gov.
eminent. We have placed her, and
kept her, upon the Constitution; and
that has been the cause Of your peace
and prosperity. The Senator from New
York says that this is about to be at end
that you intend to take the Government
from us---that it will pass from our hands
Perhaps what he says is true; it may be
but do not lorget--it can never be for
goIten-i. is written on the brightest page
Of human history-that we, the slavchold
ers Of the South, took our country in he
infancy, and, after ruling her for sixty
out Of the seventy years Of her existence
we shall surrender her to you without
stain upon her honor, boundless in pros
perity, incalculable in her strength, tn
wonder and the admiration of the world
Time will show what you will make o
her; but no time can ever diminish on
glory or your responsibility.

The PROGRESS OF THE TmEs.-Does
any one wish to know by what con-
trivance the great chandelier in the
dome of the Senate chamber at Wash
ington, which hangs two hundred feet
above any floor, and has fifteen hun
dred gas burners, is lighted! The
Washington Star furnishes the infor-
nation: IL is done By electricity, and
the way it is done is contrived by
Samuel Gardiner, Jr., of New York.
whose mechanical and scientific in
genuity the Star has heretofore no.
ticcd. The operator stands upon the
floor, some two hundred feet from the
chandelier, which is suspended in the
dome, and by touching three small
keys the gas is turned off Or on at
will. and the electric current commu-
nicatcd to it like magic. 1t has been
in operation for the last two weeks,
and thousands have witnessed this
electric exhibition. Senators. Heads
of Departments, Foreign Ministers,
and many other distinguished Swans
and philosophers have been astonish-
and delighted with this apparatus
No gas escapes into rooms; and it is
believed to be equally applicable to
the lighting of street lamps, and the
firing Of submarine batteries after be-
ing submerged ten minutes or ten
years, affording complete protection
to our harbors and cities. For mining
defences against an army it must be of
incalculable value in time of war, al
so, for cast signals we apprehend moth
ing can be found to compare wit it.
This valuable invention seems to be
purely American, and we hope our
government will take immediate steps
to avail themselves Of those impor-
tant discoveries. We understand that
Mr.. Gardiner has already received let
tiers patent, both in this country and
Europe.

YOUNG MAN PAY ATTENTION.

Don't be a loafer, don't call yourself
a loafer, don't keep loafer's company,
don't hang about loaling places. Bet
ter work hard for nothing and board
Yourself than sit or stand at corners
with your hands in your pockets
Better for your own mind, better for
your own prospects. Bustle about if
you mean to have anything to hustle
about for. Many poor physician
has obtained a real patient by riding
hard to attend on an imaginary one.
A quire Of blank paper tied up with a
red tape carried under lawyers arm
may procure him his first case and
make his fortune. Such is the world
10 him that hath shall be given
Quit droning and complaining, keep
busy and mind your chances.

Plain Talk.

The follow sensible remarks are ia
ken from the Shelbyville Erpositor:--
"We ,uU not take the responsibility to
publish any communication sent to us
without the name of the writer. No
man shall make Us responsible for
what he writes. If he is too modest
to rive us his name, or if he cannot
conlide in us, his request will not be
considered worthy Of attention, how
evcrmeritorious his article may be-
If confidence begets confidence, dis
trust as surely begets distrust. If a
man suspicious us, and we see it, we
are not likely to place much conf
dence in him. If the name Of cor
respondent is made public, it is very
apt to be owing to his own vanity
We will warrant that he is the first to
tell it.
While on this subject, we wish to
saw a word to another class Of writers
Those who have been wasting their
time, ink and paper in writing arti-
cles to appear as editorial. We new
er have paid any attention to them
and never will take the pains to read
them. We regard it as an insult to be
offered such articles. We prefer do
ing our own editing entirely. If we
fail to satisfy those interested, we will
quit the business, and 60 at something
else. 1t will ruin the character of any
paper to have outside scribbers for it's
editorial columns. A paper thus con-
Quoted can never gain good reputa-
ton. Even thore who scribble for its
columns do not respect it. They re-
gard it as a kind of tool which can be
used by any one for any purpose. 1t
can exert no good influence in the
community where it is published, for
nothing in it's columns can be regar-
ded as reliable. It's ostensible editor
is soon found out to be a mere tool for
others, for those who scribble for it
will not be slow to tell who is the au-
thor of certain articles.
Below all things, we detest those
dirty little papers which every man
within the range of their circulation
who has G. handle to his name puts his
fingers into. There are several such
sheets in this State, and we can dis
tinguish them by their very looks -
Those who publish them are the poor
est printers that can be found--men
who could not get employment in de-
cent printing office.

There is just now an excellent op-
portunity for any person to buy a
country newspaper office cheap. A
western paper says that in ,illage Of
lroquols county, ILL.,, an editor became
smitten with the charms of a young
and handsome married lady, and sad
dressed to her a long and passionate
letter, filled with rhapsodies on her
beauty and his lovelorn helplessness.
The lady, with the advice and consent
of her husband, sent the missive to the
rival country paper, in which it APP

Tue LIBRARY OF CONGRESS. The Lii
brary of Congress was first established
during the administration of Jefferson,
at his suggestion, and by his exertions.
1t at first contained about two thou
sand five hundred volumes, and was
destroyed by fire when the British
burned the Capitol in 1914. In the
same year a resolution was intro
duced in Congress to purchase Mr..
Jetierson's private library, which was
passed; the books bought and brought
to Washington, and the library of
Congress again organized. Various
valuable additions being made from
time to time, the library contained
in 1851, fiity-fve thousand volumes.
During that year it accidentally
caught fire, and thirty-Gve thousand
volumes were destroyed, and the room
very much injured. This accident H.
nally resulted in the room being
made perfectly fire proof, by construc-
ting the acoves and shelves of cast
iron. Soon after this fire an appro.
priation of $4,000 was made by Con.
gress for the purchase Of new books.
This fund was judicIously laid out,
and a most excellent collection made
of standard and rare works. The Ii.
brary now contains about IS 900 vol
umes exclusive Of a large number of
pamphlets, and about so 600 public
documents; and the annual appro-
priation to the library is $4,000 for
miscellaneous, and $4,000 for law
books. Union.

lished is the Shelbyville Exposition.
NOT that it has more matter than
others we know of, but what it does
have is better. The editing of pa
per consists not in long editorials as
much as in diversity of good selec-

good selections, writes good articles,

a printing office often does for those
who enter it to obtain a livelihood.
