The Warm Air Furnace invented and
manufactured by Mr.. Peter Martin, of Gin
cinnati, was put into the Union school
building OF this city in November last, and
thus far it has given entire satisfaction. II
surpasses other furnaces in the following
Important particulars: 1t has, compare
lively a greater heating surface; produces
a larger volume of heat with a given amount
of fuel; the condition of the air in respect
to temperature, moisture and purity, is SUI
perior; the admission of cold air, the sup
ply of warm air for the several rooms, and
the fires, are more easily regulated.
To avoid scorching and decomposing the
air, as is done, to some extent by other hot
air furnaces, and to secure to each room an
abundant supply of pure, fresh air, warmed
to apleasant temperature, as well as to pro-
tect the wrought-iron air-fues from
the effects Of the fire, it is essential that
the warm air-fues leading to the school
rooms, should be at least twelve
inches in diameter. This will insure the
influx of such large and rapid current Of
fresh air as to prevent the wrought-iron
flues from being overheated, and thus secure
the durability Of the furnace, and keep the
warm air In healthful condition. 1t is
deemed proper to State in this connection
that our Board of Education was induced
to order Mr.. Martins Furnace, because two
other furnaces had been previously used in
our school edifice without satisfactory re-
suits, and because, after careful examina-
tion of large number of furnaces and
other modes of warming school houses and
! other public edifces, not only in Western
but also in Eastern cities. Mr.. Martins was
believed to be decidedly the best.

Hon. e. M. Stanton:
At 1890 p. NJ. to-day General Grant tele-
graphed me as follows: ..
There has been much hard fighting this
morning. The enemy drove our left from
near Dobney's house back well towards the
Boydstown plank road. Weare now about
to take the offensive at that point, and hope
will more than recover the lost ground.
Later he telegraphed as follows:
Our troops, after being driven back to
Boydtown plankroad rallied and drove the
enemy in turn and took the White Oak road,
which we now have. This gives us the
ground occupied by the enemy this morning.
will send you the rebel flag captured by
our troops in driving the enemy back.
There have been four flags captured to-day.
Judging from the points from which
Grant telegraphs, infer that he moved his
headquarters about one mile since he sent
the first of the two dispatches.

The Germans in Texas.

The Germans in Texas have again
raised cotton crop of superior quality
to any grown by slave labor. So the
southern papers concur in stating, and
they now appear very prompt to ac-
knowledge that which they have here
tofore strenuously denied.
The reason of this success of the
Germans is quito clear. The farmer
who raises his own cotton, and the la.
bo-ers whom he employs, have every
possible inducement to produce a crop
of the finest quality. At every stage
it is accordingly tended with the ut
most care, and this care brings out the
greatest degree of skill.
The cotton crop, once opened to the
competition of free labor, will now be-
come the object of scientific study, as
is the case with wheat, the grape, the
strawberry, and other products of the
soil. The result will be not only that
new methods of cultivation will be dis.
covered, but that labor. saving machines
will increase the production amazingly.

hope the cholera will not reach the
United States. It is now in Italy and
France. 1t has been clearly proven by
the efforts Of the Greek Government
that by severe sanitary measures it can
be kept out of a country, for not one
case has occurred in Greece, nor in any
of the Islands of the Archipelago.
Nor is it much to be feared if o strict
regimen is observed by all classes.
The food should be meats and soup
and but few vegetables and fruits used
IF the stomach, notwithstanding this
is affected, it should be attended to a

a little peppermint, taken to the amount
of 20 or 80 drops at time, will not fai

wediately lie down, keep warm and
quiet, and drink no water, for teas OIL
any kind are far preferable. Any seri.
Gus affection of the stomach, or the low
er intestines, must be attended to al
once, otherwise the disease may make
fearful progress. Every one should
carry vial Of the above mixture in hi:
pocket, and SO be ready to use it or give
1t to others at q moments notice, il
small quantities. In severe attacks {
mustard blister must be put on tn,

eaten until all danger is past. As loDf
as there is life there is hope, and it is
great folly to suppose that the cholcrt
cannot be cured. Whilst there is

and of the entire body, should be mad

is the FIRST point in every severe case.

One honest John Tompkins, heiger and ditcher,
Although be was poor, did not want TO be richer,
For all such vain wishes to him were prevented,
BY fortunate habit Of being contented.
Though cold was the weather. dear were the food,
John never was found in murmurng mood
For this he was constantly heard to declare
What he could not prevent he would cheerfully bear
&c For why should grumble aud murmur }" he said,
" II not get m eat, I'll bo thankful for bread
And though frettlng may make my cslamities deeper
It mover can cause bread and cheese to be cheaper
II John was afflicted with sickness or pain,
He wished himself better, but did not complain,
Nor lie down to fret 10 despondsnce or sorrow
But said he hoped to be better Tomorrow
n any one wronged him, or treated him III,
Why, John was good-natured and sociable still
For he said that reVengng the injury done
Would be making two wrongs where there need be bu
3d.. one.
And thus honest John, though his satcn was humble
Passed through this sad world without even grumbl,
And t were well II folk, who were greater an

New YORK, October 19.-The Wash
iugton correspondent Of the Evening
Post, speaking of The Presidents speech
to the colored soldiers, says that the
feeling here is that the speech was very
kind toward the colored people, but this
may be partly in consequence of Mr..
Johnson's repeated private assurance of
his desire to do every thing for tho
freedmen which is really for their good.
He has repeatedly asserted in private
conversation if he were at home, in
Tennessee, he would vote to give the
ballot to intelligent and industrious
negroes. Those persons here who have
heard him make these assertions, judge
yesterdays speech favorably, because
they know his opiHions upon points not

Taxing Government Bonds.

The New York Tribune presents the
following considerations upon the sub
ject of taxing Government bon ds:
OF course there is some grumbling
as there always is. One would have
the evidences of national debt taxed;
thoush-as we have all that debt to
borrow afresh at very short dates-the
effect of this would inevitably bo to
raise the rate of interest, go as to take
i've dollars out of the Treasury for
every four it put in. If you tax the
bonds, the lender will take that circum
stance into account in making his bids
for the new loans, whereby the most oil
those now running must soon be re.
placed; so that, instead of gradually
working our average rate Of interes
down to five if not four per cent, We
we shall have to pay six or seven, as
now. This project of tightening OUT
burdens by taxing our debt is as futils
as it is per6dious.
