Why Children Die.

The reason why children die is because
they are not taken care Of From the day
of their birth they are stuffed with food,
choked with physic, suliocatcd in hot rooms
steamed in bed clothes. So much for in
doors. When permitted to breathe n breath
of air once week in summer, and once or
twice during the cold months, only the
nose Is permitted to peer into daylight. A
little latter they are sent out with no clothes
at all, rs TO the parts of the body which
need more protection, Bare legs, bare
arms, bare necks, girted middles, with an
inverted umbrella TO collect the air and
chill the other parts of tho body. A stout,
strong man goes out on cold day with
gloves and oyercOat, wooden stockings, and
thick double-soled boots. The same day a
child of three years old, an infant In flesh
and blood and bone and constitution, goes
out with solcs as thin as paper, cotton
socks legs uncovered to the knees, neck
bare; an exposure which would disable the
nurse, kill the mother in fortnight, and
make the father an invalid for weeks. And
why? To harden them to mode of dress
which they are never expected to practice.
To accustom them TO exposure, which
dozen years later would be considered
downright foolery. To rear children thus
for the slaughter pen, and then lay it to
Heaven is too bad.

A Horse of Another Color.

The Cincinnati Gdkette, commenting on
the suppression Of the Richmond Examiner,
says:
'The E1dminer processes support of the
Presidents policy, interpreting that to be
hostility TO Congress and to the North.
This is all the smoother-tongued Virginia
delegation offered at the White House; and
they specifically indorsed the President as
their defender against constitutional
amendments This IL the general style OF
conquered rebel loyalty. IL means support
Of ING President and hostility 10 the Govern
BleRt."
The Gazette used to tell us that the Prcsi-
dent was the Government, and whoever
opposed the President opposed the Govern
ment. That was while lincoln was Presi-
dent. Now, that the President has vetoed
the Colored Bureau Bill, our neighbor dis
covers that he is not the Goyernrnent-En
quirer,
How about this nice little distinction,

Chicago in n Ferment.

Aspccial from there TO the Cincinnati
OommerctdL on Saturday, says, of the feel
ing about JOHNSON and SEwARD's speeches
1t would be impossible to imagine a
greater diversity of opinion than Is cx-
pressed upon this matter by the reading
and thinking classes.
The Radicals are bitter, though not as
violent ms Is their wont.
The companion speech of Secretary Sew
ward evidently staggcrs them. The Com
seryatives say little In regard t othe Presi-
dents speech, but are greatly elated with
the speech of Secretary Seward.
The Republican, heretofore considered to
be the exponent of the less violent Of the
Radicals, Is really more violent than tho
most ultra. Itdenounces the Presidents
speech, calls it national disgrace, and
hints that the President was intoxicated.
The Times declares II TO be the solemn
duty of President johnson TO order the ar
rest Of Sumner, Thad. Stevens, Wendell
Phillips, and others, and punish them for
treason.
The Journal regrets the Presidents exhi-
bition of ill-temper, while admitting that
he makes out very strong ease In some
respects. Ua tf

THE DAILY EMPIRE.
H. Fl. ROBINSON,
The Bridal Wreath and SoxtOn's
ShOVal


In Paris Illinois, while the New Year
was scarce twelve hours old, party as
senlblcd to witness the solemn sacrament
which iiniVcd two young and loving hearts
In the holy bonds of matrimony. ROBBED I'm
garments ofspOtless white-fG emblcms of
purity. inhocencc and hope-happy and
joyous but with timorous fluttering of
the heart ms she made the response which
tor all time7-f0r better or for wOrse-in-
vested her with the joys and sorrows of
wifehoQd, and gave her happiness, her very
being, In another's keeping, the young girl
was welded. Behind was the careless,
light-hcartcd gaiety of girlhOod. Before,
fraught with the mixed, i'll and good of
human life-the cup of welded love filed
TO the bfim with such happiness unalloyed
as angels feel, or the bitter draught of sick
ness, misery, death.
Love threw Il golden halo over the pros
pect, and the young brides look into the
dim future was dream of rose colored
bliss. All 'went merry as "a marriage bell"
and there was feasting and flirting, con-
gratulatlops and kissing of the bride.
In the adjoining building human soul
was passing through the dark valley in
which flows the river of death, whose wa
tcrs all must cross who journey to the
bright land on the hither side, where the
weary are at rest. Full of years and hon
ors. the widow of pioneer, devoted
christian. mother whose children and
grandchildren had grown mp around her
honored members of society, she had full
filled her mission, "acted well her part" and
was ready for the summons.
Another pioneer lady, accompanied by
her granddaughter, sought the house of
mourning to comfort her dying friend In
her last dread trial. Age had silvered her
hair and dimmed the brightness of her eye.
but the fire of early friendship still burned
brightly on the altar of her heart.
With slow and totterng steps she ap-
proaches the door, behind which her friend
is calmly breathing her life away Her
trembling hand grasps the knockcr, but Just
about the time the minister had pronounced
the. last words of the ceremony which
made Miss Jane Hartlep a wife, and while
the spirit of Mrs Alexander plume its wings
for the celestial flight, the aged and syn-
pathizing visit r, Mrs. Sanford, falls dead
ut the threshold, stricken by one of those
mysterious darts with which death delights
TO surprise his victim.
Mrs. Alexander was the widow of Gen
eral NJ. X. Alexander one Of the pioneers
of Edgar county. Mrs. Sanford was the
widow of Mr.. Isaac Sanford. wealthy
and influential citizen, who settled in Ed
gar about the same time that Gen. Alexan-
der did. The two deaths, in connection
with the wedding, form rather curious
and suggestive combination of circumstan-

WHY lie was I'm Such A Hurry.

Some time since, the Portland Press says,
II mentioned the fact of man In Boston
paying $500 for an extra train To bring
him 10 that city on Saturday February 4 In
order TO take passage IN the steamship Novo
Scotlan for Liverpool, which expense he
would have saved by taking the regular af-
ternoon train from Boston. IL Is now sup
posed that this man was Howard, the third
one of the Concord N. ii. Bank robbers,
who had Sl000O0 Of the stolen bonds In his
possession. This accounts for his great
