STORY FOR BOYS,

1CASNoT, S1R."-A young man-we
will call him Honest Frank-who loved
truth-was clerk in the office of some
rich merchants. One day letter came
recalling an order for some goods, which
had been received the day before. One
of the merchants handed it to Honest
Frank, and, with persuasive smile, said
"Frank, reply to this note. Say, the
goods were shipped before the receipt Of
the letter countermanding the order. "
Frank looked in his employers face with
sad but firm glance, and replied
81 cannot, sir."
"Why not, sir" asked the merchant,
angrily.
1'Because the goods are now in the yard
and it would be "a lie, sir"
81 hope you will always be so particu-
lar" replied the merchant turning upon
his heel and walking away.
Honest Frank did bold as well as 6
right thing. What do you suppose hap
pened to him? Did he lose his place p
No-quite different. The merchant was
too shrewd to turn one away who would
not write lying letter. He knew the
value of such youth, and, instead o
turning him away, made him his conf
dential clerk.

nAnY DESCRIPTION.

From a treatise on races by Griswold,
(the Fat Contributor,) we quote para
graph or two;
sI fiatter myself that l know something
about the horse race. had passion for horse
racing when lad, and used TO run horses with
ueighbor's boy in Tompkin's lane. How
vividiy do 1 recall my last race. rode the
governors grass fed mare sorrel roam, If re-
member correctly, with two white feet IN the
forehead She was little foundered in one
eve, but with the exception of something like
watermelon on each knee, her intellect was
impaired She was sired by Canal Horse
| and id BY every one who drove her. Neigh
bor's boy rode cream colored chestnut with Q
spring halt to harness. On the home stretch
was neck and half shoulder blade behind
gently encouraging the old mare to do her level
best by the application of a corn cutter to heI
aged ribs. The limp which she had in her
eve prevented her taking clear view OF a heap
Of cobble stones in the lane, and when she
struck them there was a stumble, clatter Of
stones, horseshoe end old bones, and the old
mare was wrecked and no insurance.
"I was picked up bleeding and insensible
and made the remainder of the homestretct
on a s,retcher, coming in under one blanket
The race was decided in my favor. The judges
allowed, although 1 was a neck behind wher
the old mare stumbled, yet, as escaped with
out my neck being broken, came out neci
ahead"

SIX AND nALFA DOZEN.

A PAPER which persistently denounces
Congress says: ''The whole Radical party
declare that the South shall not be read
nitted to Congress until it conforms to GER
tain conditions to be by themselves dicta-
ted"
What is the case upon the other side
Simply that the President insists that the
South shall be re-admitted to Congress
because It has ostensibly conforned to
conditions which he has himself dictated.
Judge Rufin, of North Carolina, says
that the President is revolutionary because
he prescribed conditions. The President
says that Congress is revolutionary be
cause it prescribes conditions. Undoubt-
edly if CongressEis guilty, so is the Presi
dent. And if conditions are to be dicta
ted, as both the Executive and Legislative
branches have declared, why is it such
crime to require that they shall be effectu

THECONyENTION.

The Philadelphia correspondent Of the Gin
ciunati Gazette has some closing remarks upon
the Convention, as follows:
Thus ended one of the most remarkable OF
conventions. 1t has been imposing in lis num-
bers, and most orderly in It's proceedings The
admirable control obtained by the leaders, has
never been exceeded in political strategy. All
the elements which ever aspersed the North, or
hated the flag, or aided in the war upon it, were
manifestly present. aud yet all agreed that for
the sake of obtaining powe-, they would cover
up all that could operate against their securing
II. The motto Of the convention should read:
CAN who are in favor of the proposition, will
saw ave." Except so far as that constitutes
convention, none has been held. Men from the
states have come here aud seated themselves
| like so many parrots before the managers OF a
club from Washington, to hear set OF papers
read, prepared beforehand, to say aye when al
lowed to open their lips at ALL to be peremPtor-
ily refused to speak, and TO go home again as
soon as the President trainers had got through
with them There has been no debate upon
any of the issues of the day, and all that the
body has TO show by way of record. are the con-
eratulatory remarks of Dix and DOOlittle upon
taking the chair, dispatch from Mr.. johnson
letter from Mr.. Yallandigham, the rcsolu
tions, the address, aud three remarkable pray
! ers which were offered.

TREASON VI. LOYALTY.

The Cincinnati Gazette with great felic-
ity, thus groups two recent occurrences of
which it makes plain statements of fact,
but which by their mere colloeation are as
suggestive as columns of argument:
"When Gen. George H. Thomas asked Presi.
dent johnson if he should furnish Governor
Brownlow with squad of troops to assist IN
holding in check the disloyal elements that were
seeking to disrupt the loyal State Government,
he was promptly and spitefully told on no ac'
count to interfere.
"When the rebel Attorney General of Louisi.
ana asked the protection Of the United State:
troops for disloyal mob, so that it might with
impunity murder the members Of a loyal Con.
yention, assembled in accordance with the Gov
ernor proclamation, President johnson at once
telegraphed, placing ali the troops in the State
at said rebel Attorney Generals disposal. and
in such language that the most stlid scoundrslI
in New Orleans at once took the hint, and sci
eagerly about their bloody work"

MRS. pARr1NGToN on FASHION.

"There is one thing sure" said Mrs.
Partington, ''the females of the present
regeneration are heap more independiter
than they used to be. Why ! saw gal
60 by to-day, that know belonged to the
historical class of society, with her dress
all tucked up to her knees, her hair all
buzzled up ike as if she hadn't had time
to comb it for week, and one of her
grandmother's old caps in an awful crum-
pied condition, on top of her head. Why,

the fellows come along when l had my

GRANVILLE MOODY AND THE PRESI.
DENT,

While the eyes of mulhtudes of Union
men were being opened to the treachery
of Andrew Johnson, Rev. Granville Moody,
a man of rare courage and sincerity, elung
70 tbe conviction that the President meant
well and would come out right. He has
some time since abandoned that belief,
and recently, in the Cincinnati Gazette,
addressed most eloquent and impressive
letter to the President, warning him ofthe
error of bis wsys-and..of the wrath to come.
The only drawback to it is that Andrew
johnson reads Copperhead Tspers nOw's'

ADDRESS 4,

Desiring ever to have In view the welfare Of
the community and realizing the eminent dan
ger We as city, are in of epidemic cholera, we
beg to impress upon our fellow citizens the great
necessity of renewed attention to proper hy-
gienic condition of their dwellings and out
houses, and that they take especial care that no
lurking places are allowed to breed unwhole-
some and disease-producing agents.
We desire especially to warn our patrons a.
gainst the use Of so-called Cholera Mixtures and
preventives, believing that their use only weak
ems and deranges the vital powers and thus in
creases the liability to attacks of disease.
It is our firm conviction that spirits Of cdia-
DLor taken in one or two drop doses twice or
thrice daily when used as preventive or as Of
ten as every 10 or Is minutes when attacked by
Cholera is by far the most reliable agent for do
nestle treatment and can safely be relied upon
until the services of physician are secured.

The Marion Democrat, under the above
caption lets forth the following rather
amusing paragraph:
"The only reason now why the Republicans

their papers in numbers greatly in excess of

speak to fifty voters, where the Democratic
press speaks to one"
