A FLrTIrn IN THE DEHocEArIc DovEcors.--
There Is good deal Of gossip abroad about
the removal Of the City Chamberlain Mr.. Stout,
President Of the Shoe and Leather Bank, by
Mayor Wood and the substitution of Mr.. Plat,
President Of The Artisans Bank-a change
which. Of course. will transfer the custody of
the city funds from the former institution to
the latter. People are wondering whether this
move Is a political or financial one and nov
that a misfortune has befallen Mr.. Fowler, the
Postmaster who kept Tammany Hall going for
some years past by his popularity and his as
sistance In other ways, II is supposed that
Mayor Wood win have to go in and take charge
OF Tsmmany, a. he seems 10 manage demo
cratic politics generally. The gossips around
the different democratic headquarters are quite

Count NIcATIoS BETWEEN THE ATLANTIC AND
PACIFIC SHoRrs-TBE PoSr ExrKEss.-The ef-
forts to lessen the time Of communication be-
tween the Atlantic and Pacific shores are pro.
crossing with great activity. The different
telegraph lines in course Of construction west
ward from st. Louis are rapidly advancing to
complexion and, with the Pony Express and
other overland routes we shall soon be in very
close connection with San francisco. The Lee
gislature Of California has offered a sum Of
100000 TO the company which shall COM
plete the first telegraph line through to San
francisco, to be paid In ten annual install
ments. and further sum Of $4,000 to any
company which shall complete the second line.
With this stimulant to exertion, we shall soon
see telegraph in operation to the capital OF
the Golden State.
This move Of the Legislature, as well as the
extraordinary enthudasm which greeted the
arrival Of the Pony Express ct Sacramento re-
Gently, shows the anxiety Of the people to draw
closer together The bonds which unite the Pa
cihc States 70 the Central and Atlantic States,

And the remainder from all other countries ?
That immigration should have received such
an unwonted impulse at the present moment lie
due TO the fact that we were never so pros
porous or had 80 much money now. Rising
like the tabled Phenix, from the financial
difaster of 1851, the country has completely
recovered Itself, and presents to day picture
Of unexampled prosperity, which, unless the
schemes Of political demagogues and agitators
in the present crisis Of the country's history
shall triumph over the conservatism and com.
mon sense Of the people, must continue to
grow brighter and brighter as time goes on
immigration is a source OF wealth and an
omen Of growing prosperity. Millions of fer
tile acres in the West await but the touch Of
industry to make them blossom like garden;
and, following on the footsteps Of the hardy
immigrant, towns and cities spring mp, the
forest and the wilderness are redeemed for
civilization, and new Territories and States are
gathered into the fraternal embraces Of the
Union, building up nation which in three
quarters of century has equalled in popula.
ton and power some Of the oldest empires on
the globe.

Sutu mn.


The bleak, chilling winds which have swept
over hill and valley, through forest and glen, for
the last two weeks, tell plainly that Autumn, the
golden crested goddess of the year, has asserted
her reign. Though each changing season Of the
year is fraught with instruction to man, Autumn
reminds us more torciby Of the shortncss Of life
and the certainty of death. The falling leaf, the
blighted flower, and the withered herbage, all
alike admonish US that we are mortal; and the
hollow winds that sing the requiem of their de-
parted glory are but enb!ems of the notes of sor-
row which burst spontaneously from bereaved af-
fcction.
Yet Autumn is not alone suggestive of sad
thoughts, nor special season for moral reflection
it has its pleasures as well as its sad forcbodings
and instead of s2eculatng upon glolny futurity
let us rather repe in the rich fuiton Of that hap
pincss and enjoyment which are tributary to the
season. We turn from the
Groves that shine with silver frost,
Their beauty withered and their verdure lost,

a new dodge was revealed at Alliance a few
days ago. An old farmer was waiting at hc sta
ton for the cars when he was approached by n
sedatc looking young man. Young man talked
with farmer about crops, Union, etc., and closed
the interview by thrustng his hand in the farmers
coat pocket, taking theretom well.stufied purse
and running away. The farmer observed the OPP
eration and started in pursuit of thief The thief
seeing that the agricultuiist was close upon his
heels, rushed in among the crowd upon the plat
orm and in an excited voice stated that his Uncle
(pontng to the farmer) had had his pocket picked
and desired instant information as to who the vii
lain was The farmer indignantly repudiated the
bogus nephew, whereupon that individual request

loss had driven him crazy He then started up
street in pursuit of the thief, but has not since
been seen. 1t was about as icy piece of rascal
ity as we have lately heard of.

Four turkeys we're confined in pen, and fed On
meal boiled potatoes and oats. Four others ofthe
same brood were also at the same time confined in
another pen, and fed daily on the same articles,
but with one pint of finely pulverized Charcoal
mixed with their meal and potatoes. They also
had apentful supply of broken charcoal in their
pen. The eight were killed on the same day
and there was difference of one and hall

LOaning Books.

Books are published and sold so cheap that
every one who wishes can buy all he may want
to read. There are few persons who buy books
but what like to keep them nice and clean, and
for this reason they dislike to loan them. When
asked by friend for the loan of book we gen
orally let him have it, but in doing so we always
feel us though we would much sooner not have
been asked for it. Aside from having books soied
and damaged by loNnng we have lost great
many by their not being returned What is Our
experience is the experience of many others in
deed of all others who loan books, and we hazard
nothing in saying that no person who has pri-
vate library is desrous of approprating it to pub
lie use.

Those Marked Tickets.

In last weeks Republican CAsKEY C mes out IN
n bitter article on the Democratic tickets. In this
township the Democrats used tickets with colorcd
backs which Jrovcd very offensive to the Repub-
licans. This was done to protect Democrats
against fraudulent tickets. Our neighbor CAsKEY
has been charged with more than one dishonorable
action and among his dirty tricks is that Of rnt-
ing bogus tickets. 1t was to protect the party
against such slippery customer as him that the
tickets were printed so that he could not coun-
terfeit them We have no doubt he intended to
counterfeit our tickets, and being foiled in that
villainous design has made him angry.
