IrritabIiity Of Illness.

Those who are blessed with health can
never know until they are called upon to
suffer, what heroic strength of spirit lies
hidden under the mask Of silent, uucom-
plaining suffering; how strong the tempta-
tions are to be unreasonable, pottlsh or re.
pining; how difficult It's to be grateful, and
still more to be aniable, when the irritation
of every nerve rendefs the most skllilui at
tendance irksome, and the dearest pres
ence burden; when the irritated frame
loathes the sunshine of smile, sna dresds
the tear anl the cloud, where all is pain
and wearness and bitterness! Let the
healthy lay these things ever to heart, and
when they scrupulOusy perform their duty
while they reverence the fortitude and
patience ofthe gentle and resigned, let them
have pity upon many poor and querulous
sufferer; upon their side, let the sick not
forget that the reverence and love thus ex-
cited are as the elixir of life to their often
wearied and over taxed attendants; quick
euing them to exertion by the sweetest of
influence, instead of exhansting them with
the struggle to perform an ungrateful duty.

sTILLiTHEY COME 4!

Henry j. Raymond, one of the most
prominent actors in the Philadelphia
Bread and Butter Convention, some
days ago bid adieu to his new friends
and walked back into the Union Party.
The N. Y. Herald, the Buffalo Com
mercial, and other influential journals
and public men have done likewise,
until finally, Gen. Custer has become
infected in the same way. In letter
to a friend in Detroit, he says:
"While might be willing, under certain
circumstances, to extend pardon to those
who oppose us in arms, | never could for
give those of the North who not only failed
to support us in the field, but placed obsta.
cles in the way of our success.
$50 long as believe the war to have
been just, and the duty of all loyal citizens
to have been to support the Government,
Just SO long will I hold in contempt that
class of men who not only opposed the Gov
ernment, but acted in opposition to their
respective States"
Gen. Custer furnished his splendid
fighting record by his recent course,
but it is not too late yet to redeem him
self.
The Cadiz Sentinel announced the
General to make Copp erhead speech
in Harrison County'a few weeks ago.
OF course, he was mt there. What
does the Sentinel think of him nop?

THE Cincinnati Enquirer, speaking
of the money used in the election in
that city. says:
The New England manufacturers furnish
ed the sinews of the war This we can
prove.
To which the Gazette (Cin cinnati)
tartly responds:
Well, suppose you prove it. Heretofore,
when the loyal people defeated the rebel
party at the polls, it was charged that the
Administration furnished the money. Now,
with the Administration against us, the
Union party has again beaten the old rebel
party, and New England, it is claimed inrn..
isbed the money The fact is the people OF
Cincinnati supplied the sinews ofwar;" :"
and, what is more. the Copperheads lost
four times as much in bets on the result. as
the Union party spent in carrying the elec
tiOn.
The Copperhead papers of this Dis
trict were filled with similar assertions
previous to the election; but we believe
no body was "green'' enough to be-
lieve it. 1t was asserted by Mitchen-
er's own friends, however, that he had
scattered $4,000 over the District
The only effect it had was to increase
our majority.

How much more we might make Of oul

We are now speaking merely of personal
