GEN. W. W. II. DAVIS.

Among the distinguished officers OF
the late volunteer army Of the United
States, none merit the appreciation of
their cOuntrymen to a greater degree
than the gentleman whose name head
ed our columns throughout the cam
paign of 1865, as the Democratic cam
didate for Auditor General of the Com
monwealth. His self-denying patrio-
tism and heroic personal courage We're
illustrated on many a hard fought bat
tie field. He led his regiment to the
fight, not for the purpose of destroying
States and obliterating the Constitu-
ton, but to quell civil disorder, and
restore the insurgent communities to
their original position in the Union.
That he thus fought, was reason enough
for the war Secretary to refuse him the
stars which his valor had won.
But reparation has come at last
Though tardy, Col. Davis has at length
received a partial raward. For gallant
and meritoriOus conduct in the field,
he has been invested with the brevet of
Brigadier General, and the Senate has
confirmed him in the possession of the
honor. The peculiar friends of the sol
dier, they who have covered Col. Davis
with abuse and calumny, may now
hide their heads in shame at the rebuke
they have received from the house Of
their friends. Let the warning be heed
ed, for there are other gallant soldiers,
thus far neglected, who Will receive
from Andrew Johnson and the Demo-
cratic party, appropriate acknowledge
ments of their services. Disunion Of
fee holders must quit the places which
they have dishonord; way must be
made for those who fought for and
would uphold the Union of the States!

LIFE IN NEW ZEALAND.-An Eng
lish missionary, who describes life in
New Zealand in the last number of
Hours at Home, relates an incident that
occurred to him on one of the South Pa
cific Islands. Whileon cruise he touch
ed at small island for food; he obtain
ed full supply, and was about leaving,
when a chief asked him if he would
like some flesh food. Says the mis-
sionary:
Thinking that doubtless they had
hogs, | said yes; he gave a quick glance
around him, as if he were looking for
messenger, and singled out and called
to a fine young lad, apparently about
eighteen years of age. The boy came
and stood before him; and before /
knew what he was about to do, and
having my back turned to him, look
ing at the fruit, &C., heard tEe sound
as of heavy blow, and looking quick
ly round, found the stillquivering body
of the boy laid at my feet, with the
words "HeUi d11o te kdi?" lis that food
sufficient for you?) Horror stricken, |
denounced most bitterly the deed, and
leaving all the provisions behind on
the ground, returned sOrrowfully on
hoard

ANOTHER RENT IN SUMMERS SCRAP
BOOK.

Mr.. Sumner is most unlucky in his
statements. Some time ago, it will be
remembered, he put on sackcl0th for a
certain Brigadier-General Osband who
had been murdered, as he informed the
Senate, by a band of brutal rebels at
Skipworth Landing, in Mississippi.
After the Massachusetts Senator had
delivered half a dozen speeches on the
barbarism Of Southern whites, dwell
ing with pathetic detail on the stabS
and bullet holes through which the
martyred Osband's soul had made its
exit, ,hiseloquence was suddenlybrought
to an end by letter from the Briga-
dier himself, who not only declared
that he was alive and in full health,
but expressed a contempt for the author
of his funeral Orati0n, which spoke
badly for Mr.. Summers popularity at
SkipWorth Landing. Again has the
great collector of scraps, the Colossus Of
paste-pot and scissors, come to grief, as
appears from the following, taken from
the editorial column of yesterdays In
qllirer:
A DENIAL.-An official dispatch is
published from William T. Minor, 6
niied States ConsuI-General at Havana,
to Mr.. Seward, ,inreferencetO the charge
made by Mr.. Sumner, in the United
States Senate, upon authority Of let
ter from Mr.. Coffin, stating that thous-
ands of negroes had been kidnapped
and transported to Cuba, and sold into
slavery, on the block, to the highest
bidder" Mr.. Minor declares that the
statement sis without foundation in
fact" General Dulce, Captain-Geper-
al, also writes to Mr.. Seward, stating
that what was said by Mr.. Sumner is
not true, and that "such a case cannot
be made out even for solitary indi-
vidual." The story may therefore, be
taken to be untrue in all particulars.

OPPOSED TO PEACE.-In the Penn
sylvania House, yesterday (4th), Mr..
Markley, Democrat, offered a preamble
announcing the Presidents proclama-
ton declaring therebelliOn at an end;
and a resolution hailing the return of
peace, and embodying a request from
the Representatives that the Governor
cause a salute of thirty-siX guns to be
fired in honor of theevent. The House
refused to hare the resolution considered.
EVERY VOTE AGAINST THE RESOLU-
TIoN WAS CAST BY REPUBLICANS!
Every vote endorsing the proclamation
and hailing the return of peace, was
cast by Democrats
Is more evidence needed to prove that
the so-calIed Republican leaders are op-
posed to q return Of peace? Do they
not, by such action, declare most un-
mistakably that they are hostile to- res
t0rati0nof the J5lionP Nothing more
is wanted to show to thepeopleOf Penn

the leaders who are now running John
w. Geary as their candidate for Cover

years are not yet satiated ?-We hope

To MAKE ECONOMICAL CIDER
Take 80 ripe apples, well ground, and
put them in half hogshead, having
a double movable bottom, pierced with
small conical holes, larger at the top
than the bottom, to prevent their be-
ing stuffed, and having little space
between the two bottoms. Pour upon
the apples a third as much water as will
fill the barrel when the cider is made.
Leave the pulp to macerate during one
day till it rises to give place to the liq-
uor, then draw it offby means ofa faw-
Get and put it Immediately in another
barrel. Then pouragain the same guam
tity of water upon the same pulp, this
having been stirred or ground over
The cider is also better to pass through
the same pulp. Add two pounds of
brown sugar to % gallons of cider, one
pound of honey, three-quarters ofa pint
of alcohol or brandy, and tumbler of
Yeast diluted in warm water. In the
right temperature, the fermentation is
finished in Is days; then bung the
barrel air-tight, and the cider is good
to drink, and can be sold for cent a
quart.

To FATTEN FoWLs.--it is CONCEDED
that the fowls of France are the latest
and whitest in the world. The method
for preparing them for the market IS
this: Fifteen days before they are to De
killed they feed them with dough made
of wheat -four of the previous year,
with ten grammes of salt to every quart
of water, and three or four gravel stones
to a mouthful of dough. Twelve hours
before they are to be killed they should
scarcely eat anything, in order to leave
the intestines empty, and thus avoid
the acid fermentation, which would
produce decomposition, and make it
impossible to transport them any dis
tance.
Not feather should be plucked till
the fowl has been thoroughly bled,
which is done without cutting off the
head. So long as the blood is in circu-
lation, each little vescicle at the root OF
the feather is filled, and causes spots if
this is plucked till it is entirely drain
ed. If they are killed Immediately af-
ter they wilIkeep only eight days; butif
they have tasted twelve hours, they
will keep fifteen days.

twelve months after the dreadful occur

while faintfiush tinged his noble brow
at the avowal, "that accident has made
physical coward of me at the sight Of
a mountain precipice."
"But the driver" urged our lady pas
senger, who had listened to the recital
of the story with attention; what be-
came of the driver? or did you ever
learn the reason of his deserting his
post?"

A PIGEON STORY.-The Milwaukee
Wisconsin tells the following: A few
weeks ago a large number Of pigeons
had made resting place under the cor
nice of the Austin Block, corner Of
Spring and West Water streets, and
had become so great an annoyance it
was necessary to keep them away
For this purpose wire gauze was nail
ed up the full length of the cornice. 1t
happened when the gauze was put up
one Of the pigeons remained behind it,
a close prisoner there, and has been for
three weeks, but during all this time
he has been daily fed by his compan-
ions. Almost every hour of the day
several pigeons will be found Clinging
to the gauze, and waiting patiently
their turn to deliver to the imprisoned
pigeon the food they have brought him,
and every one seems to be more anx-
ious to supply him than he is to feed
himself. The most choice bits that can
be picked up are reserved for their poor
companion and he is now living on the
fat of the land. We have no doubt
that, like an honest pigeon as he is, he
would prefer to break the chains which
bind him and work for his living, but
as he cannot do that, must submit to
,ni,,o, +ba n not of tho HppL-
