AnythanEs.
The La Crosse Democrat defines Prof.
Daniels of Wis. to be "horse- leech. -
Everybody who is familiar with the fact
that this Daniels continues to draw 1000
per year for services (ncver rendered) as
Gcologist, and has got another 81, 900 CON-
mission as cavalry officer, will appreciate
the above definition. :. Did not the prophet
Jeremiah have this American rebellion in
his mind when he exclaimed, 1.-THE cities of
the South shall be shut up and none shall
open them ?" The world owes no man
a living until he earns it .. In the good
old days Of yore, our grandmothers were
content to take stitch in time, but with
the help Of sewing machines the women of
the present day take a stitch in no time . I.
E. r. Paul, one Of the most assiduous and
genial Of western editors, has retired from
the Galena Courier, for the reason that an
independent, no.party paper could not be
sustained. He has put the Office in the
hands Of w. H. Bristol, who will make the
Courier Union Democratic sheet. Wher-
ever Paul may 60, we trust the fates will
look kindly upon him. .. The Indiana Sen.
tin<l noticing the shipment of chickens from
that State to Csba presumes they are for
the Dons to feast on another journal ar.
CUES that the Spanish authorities having
heard Of the bravery Of the Indiana boys,
supposed them to have been fed on game
chickens, and therefore import the same
article for their soldiers Some newspa-
per scribblcr wants to know whether the
volume Of sound has yet been found" We
doubt not good volume would be produc-
ed, if some person should rap him smartly
on the head. The Albany Aryus says If
there is anything that will make a woman
swear it is looking after Der night.cap after
the light is blown out. How does the Ar-
gus knowf That's the question. :. i. "A
clergyman "down east" who wished to
preach sermon against tn, doctrine of
immersion selected the following text: "Be-
ware of divers-and strange doctrines"
1t is supposed that from that time, water
became in bad repute in that locality -.
Russell is denominated as the "great Amer
lean Times server" -. .Doesticks, suppos.
ed to be in the war, has been the victim OF
''shoddy" and had his uniform blown into
strips by gentle breeze the first day he
went out of his tent. He paid his respects
to the Colonel of the regiment dressed in
bayonet. For an extra parade on Sun.
day the soldiers polish their muskets and
tie red rag to each leg.

Butter now sells in this county for 123
cents per pound, which is reasonably low
figure. The reasons for this are accounted
for as follows: Its manufacture has in-
creased more rapidly than its consumption; !;
the Southern market is now closed, which
has heretofore received large portion OF the
surplus products of the dairy. Added 10
these, the unsettled condition of the coun-
try, producers will readily perceive that
their chances for obtaining high prices are

New Democratic MOrDing Paper.
esTHE UNION.D

With view 10 meet a universally ad-
mited want, the undersigned Will issue on
Monday, the lst of July next a Morning
Penny Paper, to be called ''THE UNION !"
The great mission OF the Democratic
Party, which has ever stood as the buIwark
of the UNIoS and The Champion OF The
CONSTITUTION, renders It's entire unity and
bold attitude in this hour OF National peril
a matter of vital concern. The pending
struggle is not less for the maintenance OF
Tn ted Country than for the PerpeiualIon
ol Democratic principles, a. expoUnded by
JEFFERSON and JACKSON. The most moTen-
tons result hang upon the issue. Mere
party questions are for the time by com
mon couse NJ adjourned. The past IS deqd,
save in lis lessons OF experience.
The Democratic hosts have not shrunk
from their full share IN the responsibilities
and dangers of the emergency. They have
rallied with one accord around the stands
ard Of our common country. But the oc-
casion imposes other duties. The Govern
ment will demand and receive. the willing
support OF every patriot, IN lis Efforts TO vim
oicale the National honor and re-assert the
National authority; but he Preservation ot
Constitutional Liberty rests more with The
people than with Congress aud Cabinet
fi9ttdICe duh ObiiN are t1tIeiOIt SspcCldl'

vigorous Metropolitan daily and 70 effor
