A few Congressman on the train today
entered into conversation about the mer
its of different Generals in our army, in
the course of which one of them told the
following story about Gen. Grant:
81 knew Ulysses Grant when he was
little boy. We used to go to school to-
gether, near Georgetown, Brown county,
Ohio. The boys used to plague him
dreadfully about horse trade he once
made. When be Was about twelve years
old, his father sent him few miles into
the country to buy horse from a man
named Ralston. The old man told Ulys.
ses to offer Ralston fifty dollars at first; If
be wouldn't take that, to offer fifty-6ve
dollars. and to 60 as high as sixty doll .rs
if no less would make the purchase. The
embryotic Major General started off with
these instructions fully impressed upon
his mind. He called upon Mr.. Rals1on,
and told him he wished to buy the horse.
"tHow much did your father tell you to
give for him ? was very natural inquiry
from the owner of the steed.
"'Why,' said Ulysses, he told me to
offer you fifty dollars. and if that wouldn', ,
do. to give you ffry.five dollars, and if
you wouldn't take less than sixty dollars,
to give you that
"Of course, sixty dollars was the lowest
figure, and on payment Of that amount.

young Napoleon"

The War Meeting Tonight '

There is to be War Meeting to- o-night,
and our patriotic citizens will be on hand
Of course. The speeches and resolutions,
if they do not swell the list of recruits
Immediately, will at least serve to get the
public in a good way for volunteering Ly
the time the $500 clause is repealed -
That is what stands in the way of recruit
ing. Let it be repealed, and everybody
in class one,' and good many of those
in 'class two,' will be busy at work day
and night to help the recruiting officers
Fl up the quota.
The most effective thing that can be
done tonight is to sign and forward pc.
tition to Congress for the repeal of the
$500 clause. When that is done public
meetings on the subject will possess a
new and personal interest for many who
are now quite Indifferent

How Fortunes are Made and Lost in
War Times,


The New York Journal Of Commerce
gives the following instances Of the haz'
ard ofmercantllc transactions during war
times:
An invoice of six hundred bales Of
cotton was consigned to this market, on
English account. 1t was sold at ninety.
three cents q pound and the seller at
once engaged his exchange for remit.
lance. Before the transaction were con
cuded, the turn came, and both cotton
and exchange came down. The buyer
Of the cotton was not able 10 take it, but
the buyer Of the exchange was cOmpell-
ed to fulfill his agreement, SO that he
was compelled 10 pay @lo2, 1000 on his
part Of the transaction while the cotton
still remained unsOld! Take another in
stance: A celebrated manufacturer
bought OF a very clever SPECTATOR eight
hundred bales ofcotton for forward de-
livery at high price-say eighty.cight
cents Cotton went down, down, down,
every day, and the manufacturer warns
into panic. So he settles his contract
by paying over to the fortunate operator
for check for $4,000.

Where l sought the precious dust
But found port called Heaven,
Where the gold doth never rust.
Urge them to secure IN entrance
For they'll find their father there,
Faith in Jesus aud repentance,
Will secure 10 each a share.
Harkl I hear my savior calling,
'Iis his voice know so WELL
When am gone, oh don't be weeping;
Brother hear my last farewell,
