POIIuiCaI InConsIstency.

The inconsistencies of politicians =
especially those of the abolition persua-
sion--aTe sometimes exceedingly amusing.
aud wele never more SO than at the pre-
sent time. When John Cochrane, of
New York, left the Democratic party,
several years ago, the abolition press united
in proelaiming him patriot, statesman,
and an honest man. This year Mr.. Coch-
rane has returned to his first love, and is
once more acting with the Democratic
organization in the Empire State. Now,
the same papers that short lime ago
lauded him to the skies are assailing him
in the bitterest manner, and il one half
they say of him be tue, they are guilty
of having, for mere partisan purposes,
taken to their bosom, and elected TO
high Office, man utterly unworthy of
their confidence and support. Mr. Coch-
rane having survived their praise, will no
doubt be able TO outlive their abuse.

A Quaker Joke.

K, the Quaker President of Penn
sylvania railroad, during the confusion and
ranic last fall, called upon the W hank,
with Which the road kcpta large regular ac-
count, and asked for AN extension of part
of its paper falling due in few days. The
Bank President declined rather abruptly,
saying in rough tone to the functionary:
"Mr. X, your paper must be paid at
maturity; we cannot renew it,
Very well, F." our Quaker friend replied
and left the hank, But he did not let the
matter drop here. On leaving the bank he
went to the depot and tclegraphed to all the
agents and conductors on the road to reject
the bills on the W bank. In few
hours the trains began to arrive. full of the
panic, and bringing the news of the W
bank all along the line. Stock holders and
depositors hocked to the bank, quaking with
panic, inquiring thus
"W hat S the matter? lsthe bank broker"
&C., &c.
A little inquiry on the part of the officers
showed that the trouble originated in the
rejection of the bills by the railroad agents,
The President seized his hat and rushed
down to the Quaker's office, and came
bursting in with this inquiry:
"Mr. x, have you directed the refu-
sal of our currency by your agents?'
'Yes, was the quiet reply
"Why is this? 1t will ruin us"
swell, friend l., supposed the bank
was going to fail, as it could not renew a
little paper for us this morning
1t is needless to say that Mr.. L. re.
newed the Quaker's paper, and enlarged
his line of discount, while the magic wires
carried all around the road, to every agent,
the sedative message.
"The W bank is all right. Thee may
take all its currency"

"If You Dare:

The Carlisle XeraH. Republican, lately
contained the following:
Men who have been for four year in re-
bclliOn against the government, whose days
and nights were passed in treason, murder
and robbery, who starved helpless prisoners
and burned captured towns, are daily being
pardoned By scores, and yet no voice is raised
in condemnation of the clemency
The Carlisle Io3,Wteer thereupon drives
home the following good shot:
We'll, if President johnson is doing
wrong in pardoning those guilty of murder
and robbery, why dom you pitch into him?
You hear Of no condemnation of the Glenn
ency. Why? Because you and other Re-
publican editors have not the nerve to assail
the President. You can grumblea and throw
innuendoes against your President, but you
quail before the power ofyour own creation.

think otherwise, condemn him tfyou dare "

4 Good Bargain.

A good story is told of Vermont farmer
who had dog to sell but who set an exces-
sive value on the animal according to his
neighbors views. His price was one hun
dred dollars. He was frequently offered
thirty, and thirty-fve dollars, which he re-
fused, and always assuring his friends he
would get his price for the dog.
One day he returned from journey, and
immediately proclaimed that he had sold his
dog for one hundred dollars.
All, said his neighbor, ''did you get
the cash?"
mo" said the farmer, mot exactly cash
but what is equivalent to that"
We'll, what did you get, persisted his
friend.

The Two Apprentices.

Two boys were apprentices In carpenter
shop. One determined to make himself a
thorough workman. the other dldn care.
One of them read and studied, and got books
that would help him to understand the prin-
cipes of his trade. He spent his evenings
at home reading. The other liked fun best.
He often went with other BOYS to have "a
good time" Come" he often said to his
shopmate' leave your old books; 60 with
us. What's the use of all this reading p
''If [ lose these golden moments, was the
boys s answer, 81 shall lose what [ can new
er make up" While the boys were still ap-
prentices, an offer of two thousand dollars
appeared in the newspapers for the best plan
for State House, to be built in one of the
Eastern States.
The studious boy saw the advertisement
and determined to try far it. After careful
study he drew out his plans, and sent them
to the committee. We suppose that he did
not really expect to gain the prize; but he
thought, there is nothing like trying" In
about a week afterwards, a gentleman arriv-
ed at the carpenters shop and asked if an
architect by the name of Washington Will
berforce lived there. 'No," said the car
penter, mo architect, but [ have an appren-
tice by that name. Let see him. The
young man was summoned, and informed
that his plan was accepted, and that the Two
thousand dollars were his. The gentleman
then said that the boy must put the bui,d-
ing up; and his employer was so proud of
his success, that he willingly gave him his
time and let him go. This studious young
carpenter became one of the first architects
of our country. He made fortune, and
now stands high in the esteem of everybod-
y; while his fellow apprentice can hardly
earn food for himself and family by his dai-
ly labor-American artisan.

great Upper Lakes forms a river of three
quarters of mile in width, and then being
suddenly contracted, rlunges over the rocks

each.
The greatest cave in the world is the
Mammoth Cave in Kentucky, where any
one can make voyage on the waters of 3
subterranean river, and catch fish without
eyes.
The greatest river in the world il the
Mississippi, 4, 100 miles in length.
The largest Valley in the world is the
Valley of the Mississippi. 1t contains 5Oo,-
fertile and profitable regions of the globe.
The largest lake in the world is Lake Su-

and would get some. At one time in the
spring, or late in the winter, Mrs Schlatter,
Mrs. Surratt, and a Major Barrow, formerly
OF the rebel army, left Washington togeth-
er They got horses from Howards's S. Mrs.
Surratt stopped at Surrattville, ard the rest
went to the Potomac. Major Barrow re-
turned and Atzerodt did not think he had
any thing to do with the conspiracy, al
though he was formerly in the rebel army.
One of Booth plans to obtain an en-
trance to the house of Secretary Seward was
an invention, which, if successful, would
have involved others in his foul act. He
made the acquaintance of a man of strong
southern feelings, living not far from the
Secretarys house, who was to make the ac-
qualntance of a servant, who was to be in
troduced to Booth, and by this means he would
learn something of the location of the rooms,
etc. As far as known, this plan failed
Booth was well acquainted with Mudd and
had letters of introduction to him. Booth
told Atzerodt, about two weeks before the
murder, that he had sent provisions and liq-
uor to Dr. Mudd's for the supply of the
party on their way to Richmond with the
President.
Michael O'Laughlin made no regular con-
fession as far as is publicly known, but has
confessed to the original conspiracy. He
denied any knowledge of the murder of the
President and the attempt on Seward S life
That he knows much of all the affair there
is no doubt In the minds Of those who
know all the circumstances of o. 'Laughlin,
and that he did visit Stanton's house as
charged In the testimony before the commits
sion
