The Bohemian.

The public is aware, or should be,
that Bohemian" is a genius who
lives by his wits employed in literary
pursuits. His contributions are more
or less fugitives, but generally at
tractive, If not valuable. At the
festival Of the National Typograph-
ical Union in Chicago, Mr.. Joseph
Medill, the veteran editor and pub
Usher Of the Tribune Of that city,
concluded an exceeding instructive
and appropriate speech, with the fol-
lowing reference to the Bohemian: :"
"One other bcnefactor | must

sound and the scenes Of death. If a
battery Is 10 be run, sink or swim, he
ventures with the foremost. If a
mine Is sprung he goes up with the
garrison, in order to describe the
feeling experienced in ascending and

A kitten should always be kept
where there are children when they
are tired Of pulling its tail, they cai,
put il in their fathers boots. A box
Of colors is also a source Of great
amusement, aiiording them an op-.
portunity Of daubing their faces, and
of appearing in illuminated pinafores.
II Is well to let them know where the
preserves and pickles are kept, so
when going after the jam they may
get a bit of capsieum. On wet days
they should be allowed to put peas
in the piano, and thumb the KEYS
with their drum-sticks. Train them
to pull gentlemen's whiskcrs and
wipe their hands on ladies' dresses.

many tombs. saw there the heroes

co, and those who had died in oul
late unhappy and wretched civil
strife. Old and young, all bore tes-
timony TO the courage and valor and
heroism and loyalty Of Kentucky
There they lay all together, thos,
who had died fifty years ago ant
those who had died this year. Con
federates and Federals lay side b,
side, their battles over, their struggle
past--therc they lay in the calm ant
silent repose Of common death
Their spirits had assembled upon eter
nal wings to perform in concurrep
harmony the duties assigned then
by the divine appointment Of thei
Almighty Maker. And why is Il
gentlemen, that we, the living, feel

seize Us, and until il shall be too late
before VIC agree to strike hand

foot Of our eountry's altar, and swea

to her alone, we will be true forever
