ney.
There were so many candidates for the
cont y ofices,a and each one ordered tickets
for his own use, and different kinds to suit
different localities of the county, oonse-
quently the demand for "tiokets" was aw-
full.
We printed over five thousand tickets
for Marshall county and placed + Crozier's .
name upon each as Chief Justice, and Z.
]. Jenkins name upon each for District
Attorney, and we believe that every tick
ct cast had the names Of these gentlemen
at the head. We can assure them that,

CHARGE TO THE GRAND JURY.
Judge Horizons charge TO the Grand
Jury was an able appeal to the best senti-
ments of the human heart, and aroused
within us new hope that society was Sc
cured of It's better interests so long as We
had such a man to administer the law.
The strong, the noble, the straightforward
words of the Judge made the just feel
strong in the consciousness Of right, and
made law.breakers and criminals shrink
from q contemplation of their crimes, re-
coil from the thoughts of justice, and
tremble tthe majesty of the law. The
Grand Jury left the presence of the Judge
With an enlightened and comprehensive ac-
quaipta of their powers and their du-
ties; and Judging from the amount Of la
Dor performed by that body, they made
good use of their instructions.

UNACCEPTABLE GRATITUDE.-Lieut, j.
late of the Sixteenth Regiment, was few
days ago walking down Main street, when
he was accosted by fellow, half soldier,
half beggar, with a most reverent mill
tary salute
"God bless your honor" said the sol.
dier, whose accent betrayed him to be
Irish, land long life to. you old fellow"
How do you know me ?" said the
Lieutenant.
ais it how do know your honor 2"
replied Pat, "good right, sure, have 10
know the man who saved my life in bat
tle."
The Lieutenant highly gratiiled at this
tribute to his valor, slid . fifteen cent
bill into his hand, and asked when Il was.
"GOd bless your honor, and long life
to you" said the grateful veteran, "sure
it was at the battle of Antietam, when
seeing your honor run as fast as your
legs could carry you from the rebels, !
followed your lead, and run after you out
of the way whereby, under God, saved
my life. Oh good luck to your honor, l
never will forget it in you"

A CAPITAL example, writes a reader, Of
what is often termed taking the starch
out, happened recently in a country bank
in New England. A pompous, we'll dress
ed individual entered the bank, and ad-
dressing the teller, who was something of
a wag, inquired:
is the cashier in?'
No, SIR was the reply.
well, am dealing in pens, supplying
the New England banks pretty largely,
and | suppose it will be proper for me to
deal with the CASHIER
Il suppose it will
Very well, I will wait
The pen.peddler took chair, and sat
compOSedly for full hour, waiting for the
cashier. By that time he began to grow
uneasy, but sat twisting in his chair for
about twenty minutes, and, seeing no
prospect Of q change in his circumstan-
ces, asked the teller how soon the cashier
would be in.
We'll, I don't know, exactly replied
the waggish teller, but expect him in
AS+1as eight weeks. He has Just gone 60
Lake Superior, and told me he thought he
would be back in that time
Peddler thought he would not wait.
Oh, you can stay if you wish, said the
teller very blandly. We have no objec-
ton to your sitting here in the daytime,
and you can probably find some place in
town where they will be glad to keep you
nights
The pompOus peddler disappeared with.
out another word.

NEVER DEsPAIR--True hope is based
on energy of character. A strong mind
always hopes, because it knows the muta-
bility Of human affairs, and how slight n
circumstance may change the whole
course of events. Such a spirit. too, rests
upon itself-it is not confined TO partial
views, or to one particular object, bat tC
its own integrity and worth. Hope ava.
kens courage, while dependency is the
last Of all evils /; it is the abandonment Ol
good--the giving up Of the battle of life
with dead nOthingness. He who can i'm
plant courage in the human soul, is its
best physician.

ABOUT CLOVES. are produced
by q tree which is a native Of the Moiuc.
co Islands, and were. like nutmegs,a long
time under the exclusive control of the
Dutch government, who for many years
would not allow the tree to grow upon
any except the island Amboyan, whence
the bighest-priced cloves still come. The
tree is from fifteen to thirty feet high,
with large aromatic leaves and punches
Of very fragrant flowers. The spice is
the unopened flower buds, which are
beaten off by means Of rods, and then
dried. The little ball at the top OF the
Glove is the unexpanded petals; but soft
ening the Glove in hot water these can be
carefully laid open by the means of "a pin.
The main portion of the Glove is what
would be the fruit if it was allowed to
go on and ripen. Our word "clove I"
comes from the French claw, a nail-that
being the name by which the French
call them on account of their resemblance
to little nail. They contain good deal
Of volatile oil, upon which their value de-
pends. This oil is sonaetimes extracted
in parts, and the cloves afterwards Sold
These can be told by their lighter color,
and by having the buttons or rounded
portion broken of. Cloves readily absorb
q considerable amount of moisture, and it
is the custom oflarge dealers to keep
them in rather damp place, in order to
make them weigh heavily and look fresh
and plump. It is bad economy to buy
cloves or any other spice in the ground
state, as, aside from the risk of adultera-
ton, the oil is absorbed by the paper in
which they are put up.

REMOTE VIEws.--It is common to over.
look what is near, by keeping the eye fixed
on something remote. In the same man.
ner present opportunities are neglected
and attainable good is slighted by minds
busted in extensive ranges, and intent
upon future advantages. Life, however
short, is made shorter by waste Of time ;
and its progress toward happiness, though
naturally slow, is made still slower by Gn-
necessary labor.
