The Country Gentleman says: Much has
been said about sailing hay by different writ
ers, and many think that hay is as well and
even better without salt. We have not put
a lock of hay in our barn for some twen-
ty years without applying six quarts of
salt to each ton of hay, which is about the
amount required by stock in the consump-
ton of a ton of hay. The result has always
been, that our hay was as bright and fra
grant as tea, and never had lock of musty
hay During haying last year, our hay was
cut, cured and got in the barn without
drop of rain on it, and we thought in such
good condition we would omit the SALT and
SO we did, and what was the result? Well,
we have not used lock of hay but what is
more or less musty For twenty years we
salted our hay and had the best of hay; and
one year we omitted the salt and had the
poorest hay. Hence the above remarks are
not predicted in one years experience.

A LITTLE GEM.

II 7
There is a form of girlish mould,
Under the spread of the branches old,
At the well known beachen tree,
With the sunset lighting her tresses of gold,
And the breezes waving them fold upon fold,
Waiting for me.
There is the sweet voice, with cadence deep,
ofone that sigheth our babe asleep.
And often turns to see
How the stars through the lattice begin to peep
And watches the lazy dial creep,
Waiting for
Long since those locks are laid in the clay,
Long since that voice has passed away,
On earth no more to be
But still III the spirit world afar
She is still the dearest of those that are
Waiting for me.

More Of the "CatspaWn Game.

The following from the Genus Of Liberty,
shows how the Republicans" of Fayette coun-
ty, are trying to make ''catspaws's of the re-
turned soldiers, and is very applicable to this
locality.
This new dodge of the old enemies Of the
Democracy is only intended toapply in certain
ly Democratic Counties, such as Greene Fay
ette and Bedford. Somerset, Crawford and
Allegheny counties where the Republicans have
political power, the soldier candidates have,
with one individual exception, been defeated,
and the nominations given to stay-at-home
Republicans. If there were any prospects for
Republican success in this county they would
not so willingly surrender the nominations to
the soldiers. Their own hungry maws would
cape for the crumbs from the public table, and
the soldiers be thrust aside as they have been
in the counties referred to, and as they are from
Federal appointments.
Having remained at home during the war,
and urged the boys to the bloody field, where
many noble life was sacrificed, and many
hearth stone desolated, these bloodless wire
pullers now attempt to beguile them into
contest where no laurels can be won.
The game is so transparent that nobody will
be deceived by it, and we wonder that any SOL
dier, even Republican, should lend himself
to it. The Democratic party has regularly
and fairly made its nominations and submits
them to the people. Democratic soldiers and
Democratic citizens will support them, and
scout and defeat the old enemy under his new
name and in his new shape, as they have done
all his predecessors Certainly no Democratic
soldier will help to elect delegates to this Re-
publican convention, nor allow himself to be
elected. They viii show the Republican chess
players that they are not TO be moved on the
political board of viii.

A Merited Rebnke,

CARD OF RETURNED SoLDIERs.-Ihe un-
dersigned, returned soldiers, have seen with re-
gret, that the proposed Festival, to be given to
the returned soldiers. on the Fourth OF July,
at Washington, has assumed an exclusively par
tizan character While we would have reloic-
ed at the opportunity of meeting with our COM
rades in arms, on the approaching anniversary
of our Independence, and to have exchanged
mutual congratulations on the restoration OF
peace to our bleeding country, we cannot en-
dorse by our presence the gross insult offered TO
our fathers, brothers and friends in civil lie,
who are identified with the Democratic party,
and who are excluded from participating In the
proceedings. When we remember the thousands
of our Democratic fellow soldiers, whose blood
in common with that of Republicans, stained
every battle field, from Bull Run to the surren-
der of Lees army, we cannot but express our
surprise that few politicians should attempt tC
use us on the occasion Of our return to our
homes for partizan purposes, whatever others
may do in the premises, we cannot lend our
selves to such an unworthy scheme. (Here FOL

The Black Copperheads."


Men who oppose the arbitrary acts of the
Administration, the violation of the Consti-
tuition, and, in the language of the DecIa-
ration of independence, "the superiority of
the military to the civil power" are stigma
tized by the Aboltionists, as ''copperheads. -
The 'copperheadism" of this class, how
ever, is lii the interest of a white mans
government and the liberty and supremacy
of white men. Itmakes that Constitution
a! Freedom, under which the nation has
hourished for nearly century, overshadow
every other consideration. It clings to the
Constitution and the Laws, as the FIRST, lest
and best hope Of the country. 1t hates
tyranny, usurpatien and Capitalization of
power. 1t loves peace, unity and fraterni-
ty. 1t looks with apprehension upon see
tional and fanatical agitation. 1t glories in
the organization of parties upon national
basis. Such is the so-ca1led 'copperhead-
ISM of the Democratic party. But there
is another sort of ''oopperheads, class
that really and truly deserves the name. It
IS composed of the men who support the
administration in every thing which is in
violation Of the Constitution and Laws, and
condemn and attack the President whenever
he acts consistently with his oath of office
and within his constitutional sphere. They
are the same men who yilifed President
Buchanan, when, by force of arms, he put
down the rebellion in Utah, who set mp the
Topeka government in rebellion against the
United States authority in Kansas, who re-
fused to agree to any compromise when civil
war inlpended, who, when the war was ra-
ging, threatened to withhold troops and sup
plies from the government, unless the ne
groes were set free, who compelled Con-
gress to violate It's pledge to the nation, that
''the war was waged only for the restora-
ton OF the Union and the supremacy of the
Constitution, and that when these objects
were attained, it should eease;" who dra-
gooned President Lincoln into the policy of
Abolition, which prolonged the war year
and half; who prevented McC Clellan from
being reinforced, when, with half the troops
that were afterwards furnished Grant be
could have captured Richmond; and who
now denounce President Johnson's restora-
ton policy as ''worse than error, as s.a
GrsRe." The spirit that moves these men

views OF GEN. SIcKLEs.-On the 4th of July,
Major General Dan iel E. Sickles, who served
with distinction during the late civil war, made
a speech, in which he remarked;
Those of us, who were in the army, who
have met our enemies in the field, can respect
them, because we know them to be brave
Applause and cheers. ''That's so," and cries
of ''good"] False TO their flag Yes. Dis
loyal to their country? Yes Betrayed into
those dark crimes by base politicians Yes
But brave and generous foes we have ever found
them. We have confronted them in the field
Then let US initiate this bright example and ac-
cord mercy to those who have been so lately
our adversaries, following the example of the
lamented Lincoln, and the example still more
recently of our General-in- Chief Grant-Tap-
plause who, in his conquest of Virginia ana
in his defeat of Lee, added yet brighter chap
let to his crown of honor, by proving himself
to be a knight of the OLD days and of the best
school in generosity, proffering to the conquered
terms which could be promptly met by gentle
man and Christian.
If those who have served their country in
the field can sincerely look with these sentiments
upon those with whom they have been so late
ly engaged in battle, then, think that the CIV
iians throughout the land-especially toe poll
tcians, who have done so much to get us into
this war--can do SO. [Applause.] IF they
will lay aside something of their radicalsm. |
something of their extravagant pretensions, and
after four years and a-half of diseord and ma
toms conflict, permit the return of our erring
brethren once more, upon terms of concord and |
affechonate amity, no more political differences
need keep us asunder. The South accepts her
fate. She accepts the abolition Of slavery
She accepts future loyalty to thesUnion. She |
abandons the dogma Of separate State sovereign
ty and the right of secession. She acknowI-
edges and recognizes that this land and this r.
Mon is ours, through all time is and must ever
be united. In that faith let us receive the South
Let by cones be bS cones and while we pro-
nounce the doom of an unforgiven traitor upon
him who breaks the peace, let US pass over the
errors and even the crimes of those who have
paid dearly for the terrible wrongs and suffer-
ings which they have brought upon their own
section of country TApplause

HE BANE AND THE ANTIpoTF.- we were
called ON by an Abolition official to "take the
oath, " we should most assuredly do SO at once,
without the slightest hesitation, if that oath
was to support the Consultation of the United
States. No matter what beside was thrust in
to ito assassinate State Constitution 10

diate the Resolutions of '98; to blacken the
memory of our "rebel' ancestors; to stand By
the proclamation of niger freedom" or even
to teach nigger school, we would swallow the
vile compound at gulp. With certain eom-
bnations, man may swallow the deadliest poi
sons with safety, and SO in this case. An oath
