A SINGULAR DEATH.- GaiSgndn1 has this story:
The Able Paradls, sixty three years of age,
principal chaplain at Bicetre, was walking IN
he was accosted by gentleman who asked him
the hour. He replied, 'Half-past 1.-THE hour
OF my death; never mind, l am ready-sustain
meP And before this latter request could be
complied with he crew pale, tottered, and fell to
the pavement dead"

Very Dilapidated.

THE Copperheads have brought out their old
scaIscrow and standing bug-bear in good season
this year. They evidently think the fools are
not all dead yet. Witness the following from
a published call for CLYMER mass meeting of
"all who are opposed to committing the destj-
MES OF thirty millions of white men to eight
hundred thousand negro voters" Picture it (!
Think OF 1t Terrible, isn't it? But, here is a
chance for little figuring. Eight hundred
thousand subtracted from thirty millions leaves
majority of only t1oenty-nine millions too ham
dred thousand We think, with that majority to
fall back upon in case of emergency, the white
race may feel tolerably easy over its destinies, !"
for a short time at least
The Clymertes will have to try some other
dodge. This one is played out. Schoolhouses
have become too plenty in Pennsylvania.
