Breckenridge stripc." They don't understand
this prctence that Democratic are opposed to
this rebellion, and that tie yebels mast be 1'xt
dowx and pxxisAed.
Mr.. Garfield, who, on some accounts we re-
gard with kindness, smells the scent Of the
Office Of Delegate afar of, and is endeavoring
to set his stakes for it. Hc was sent for to
visit Vancouver, which hs was not 10th to do
under the circumstances; and there, ON Sat-
urday, made two speeches. Supposing that
he was Union man, rs that doctrine is now
understood, he was invited to deliver before
Union meeting then in session, speech. He
did so 1t was made mp of hair.splitting ab.
stractions-the whole tendency of which was
to favor disunion. He did not come down
to the work, as did General Jackson, and say,
"the Union shall he pyeserred."
Mr.. Garfield delivered also speech at
what was called Democratic meeting. There
he took grounds that there sras no caase for
this rebellion, and by inference that it should
be put down and its authors punished. And
then stood ont in bold relief Knights Of the
Golden Circle. and Meir friends. They de-
nounced the speech-lcft the mceting-dis-
gustcd with all the efforts made and making
by the smooth haired young men to cheat the
voters Of Clarke county. by getting up the
Union Dodge" That the rebels will be
made to understand the cheat, is not unlikely
---nnd that they may go into it hereafter, is
not the less trir-but certain it is, that on
the annunciation of Union sentiments in their
meeting, there was great Rxttering among the
wounded knights loud growls of displeas.
urc and much suppressed indignation. There
are knights of the Golden Circle scattered
over the whole Pacific Coast.

ASK YOUR ENEMIEs.-If Won want to know
your faults ask your enemies what they: are. and
you will be told. If there is broken place
in your coat Of mail, they will discover it, and
thrust spear therein. They will pierce you
between the joints of the harness. Perhaps
some people think one must needs b very
wicked to have enemies. No. no; there h

It is no credit to q man to have it said Of him.

Americas Opportunity.

The present may appropriately bc termed
Americas opportunity. In the earlier histo-
ry of every great nation, there are convulsions
and disturbances which threaten it's vitality,
but there also occurs some opportune time
sort of seventh wave which, with a skillful
navigator, always watts the ship Of state into
its appropriate haven Of glory. Recent events
developed by the transpiring civil war, indi-
cate that for the United States in her turn
this period is approaching. Americans, while
tagging behind confcssedly in all that relates
to refinement and luxury, have tecn acknowl-
edged to excel in the fields Of invention and
tho practical adaptation Of scientific arts to
modern pursuits. Only on the high seas have
they yielded to the superior rivalry Of Eng
land. But suddenly while England is glory
ing in her " hearts of oak" and filling the
seas with her floating wooden citadels, the
Monitor makes her appearance on the scene
and Brittania rules the waves no more.
There is no disputing the fact-the sudden
ness with which we have proved ourselves ca
pable of organizing a navy and putting afloat
in thorough working order fleet Of iron-clad
rams and gunboats, against whose approaches
no wooden vessel can stand her ground, has
created a Auttcr throughout the civilized
world, and an actual panic in England. whose
statcs,nan-acknowlcdg that hereafter the
former class of vessels is forever at an end
express grave apprehensions that the adapta-
bility Of the British sailor to maritime COLI
tests may share similar fate. In all tho M.
val conflicts Of the past year our officers and
sailors have proved themselves SO perfectly
adapted to this species Of warfare, that it
would appear as though our Navy must have
enjoyed tho advantage Of at least half cen.
tury of schooling in this field for the develop
ment of scientific skill. France has been q
year or two rejoicing in her steel cased Gloires
and Gxevricrres, yet finds herself all at once
obliged to unlearn all she has learned, and to
admit that Brother Jonathan with a few
thousands of dollars and three months to
work in, can produce vessel which, although
so insignificant as to be hardly discernable
above water, is quite a match for the heavi-
est vessel that Aoats-a match evon for cum
brous ships like La GlOiye.
If our Governments energies should be d.
rected to tho attainment Of perfection in this
line, our march to tho first rank Of nation
may be rapid indeed.

A SNAKE SroRy.-Thero is young fsl.
low by the name of Fay, residing near the
National road, about five miles east of the
city, who has recently excited the wonder of
those who have heretofore entertained horror
of snakes. He spends the most of his time in
hunting for and playing with reptiles Of vari-
GUS kinds, and goes about with his hat and
pantaloons pockets filed with them. A day
or two ago, party of gentlemen. who were
fishing along Wheeling Greek. met Fay. and
one Of them, in sportive manner. took of
his (Fay's) hat, when seven water snakes
jumped off his head and ran in different
directions. Fay then proposed. for consid-
Grafton, to 60 and bring another lot, which he
did in an incredible short length Of time, and
upon being paid an additional sum of money.
actually put the head Of the forked tongel
reptiles in his mouth, and bit them off one
after another, and threw their bodies away.
On his upper jaw the fellow has but one tooth,
so that he is compelled to tear and chew the
necks of the snakes before he can separate the
heads from the bodies. He has made himself

Of the water-snake, that he can 60 out, and in
few moments return with his hat full

BE- HAPPY NOw-This forever looking
forward for enjoyment don't pay. From what
we know of it, we would as soon chase butter
flies for living. or bottle up moonshine for
cloudy nights. The only true happiness is to
take the drops Of happiness as God gives
them to Us. every day Of our lives. The boy
must learn to bs happy when he is plodding
over his lessons; the apprentice when he is
learning his trade; the merchant when he is
making his fortune. II he fails to learn this
art he will he sure to miss his enjoyment

Hints for Housekeepers.

AS general rule 1t is most economical to
buy the best articles. The price is, of course
always little higher, but good article al
ways spends best. 1t is a sacrifice of money
to buy poor -four, meal, sugar, molasses, cheese,
butter, lard, etc. to say nothing about the in
furious effect upon the health.
Lard should be hard and white; and that
which is taken from hog over year old is
the best.
Rich cheese feels soft under the pressure
of the finger That which is strong is rctl.-
rr good nor healthy. 10 keep one that is cut
tie it up in bag that will not admit flies, and
hang it up in dry place. If mould appear
on it. wipe it off with dry cloth.
The best rice is large, and has a clear, fresl,
look. Old rice sometimes has little black i'll
sccts inside the kernel.
The small white sago called pearl sago, is
the best. The large brown kind has an
earthly taste. These articlcsand ground rice,
tapioca, etc, should be kept covered.
TO select nutncgs pick them with u pin.
If they are good. the oil will instantly spread
around the puncturc.
Keep coffee by itscls, as its odor affects 9th
cr articles.
Keep tea in n close chest or canister.
Oranges and lemons keep best wrapped
close in soft paper and laid in drawer.
When cask of molasscs is bought, draw
off few quarts, else the fermentation pro-
duced by moving it will burst the c,,sk.
Bread and cake should be kept il. tin box
or stone jar.
Salt Goldfish should be kept in n dry place
the house. Fisl,-skinS for clearing coffee
II, al :.,I -,
a paper bag.
Soft soap should be kept in a dry place in
cellar, and should not b. used till three
months old.
Bar soap should bc cut into pieces of con.
venient size. and left where it will become
dry. 1t is well to keep it for several weeks
before using it, as it goes fast when it is new
WHAT RIP RAPs MEAN.-Many persons
have, since the war began. made inquiry as to
the origin of the term, Rip Raps." For the
benefit Of the uninfosmed, we give the follow.
ing information: In engineering, Grip rap
is foundation obtained by throwing stones
together in heap, without order. in deep wa.
ter or on soft bottom. The fort or battery in
the channel between Fortress Monroe and
Sewell's Point, is constructed on such an arti.
fcial foundation. and is therefore styled the
"Rip-Raps." The fortifcation was com.
menced about twenty years ago. Loose
blocks Of granite were piled up to tho hight Of
twenty or thirty feet. and permitted to remain
for several years, for the purpose Of settling
the foundation. The blocks were taken down
to within few feet Of the water-line yeas
ngo. aud nothing moro has been done to the
fort since.
