urging the necessity of some legisls-
ton TO protect them from the addi-
tional shareholder tax, imposed by To-

cision of the Supreme Court, declaring
such a tax to be permissible under the
currency act. They assert that the in

CHOLERA PRECAUTIoNs.-ln these times,
when it can be no longer disputed that the
Asiatic cholera exists among us in an epidem-
ic form, there are few sanitary rules which
all should, as far as lies in their power, OBJ
serve. Keep the person and, premises clean,
and avoid the presence of all decaying vege-
table matter Wear light flannel next the
skin, if it is procurable, and regulate the
clothing according to the changes in the
temperature of the atmosphere. Eat whole
some food in the usual quantities, but ban
ish stale vegetables and all those articles
which experience has taught are liable to
create disturbances of the stomach or bowels
They who have been in the habit of using
stimula ting drinks should not drop them off
suddenly. nor increase the quantity; but 1t
would we suspect, be better to let malt liq-
uors entirely alone. All excess. at any rate,
is dangerous, and should be postponed to sa-
fer times. Keep out of the night air and
out of the rain as much as possible, and if
necessary exposure is found to have produced
changes in the sction Of the digestive organs,
see at once that the means for confederation
are provided Every one must become a
watchman over himself The premonitory
symptoms of the disease, a sense of weakness
in the region of the intestines, and incipient
diarrhoea, are we'll enough understood: let
them never be neglected; for az hours neg
lect will often insure fatal termination
Above all things, keep as tranquil as possible.
Try not to be afraid, and try to do nothing
which may cause a sense of fear to arise.

selected Poetry:
WITHOUT THE CHILDREN.

o the weary, solemn silence
Of house without the childreni
o the strange, oppressive stiffness
Where the children come no more!
All! the longing of the sleepless
For the soft arms Of the children,
All! the longing for the faces
Peeping through the opening door
Faces gone for evermore
Strange it is to wake at midnight
And not hear the children breathing,
Nothing but the old clock ticking,
Ticking, ticking by the door,.
Strange to see the little dresses
Hanging up there all the morning;
And the gaiters-ahl their patter,
We will hear it never more
0nour heart-forsaken foori
What is home without the children?
IT'S the earth without its yerdure,
And the sky without the sunshine,
Life Is withered to the core
So wen leave this dreary desert,
And Wen follow the Good Shepherd
To the greener pastures vernal,
Where the Lambs have "gone before'
With the Shepherd evermore! MN

The New York Evening Post was
one Of she papers most influential
in forming and organizing the Re-
publican party. Of this same party
its views are set forth in the follow
ing article, to which we invite the
careful attention of our readers.
With a blund ering and chaotic pol
icy, such as that imposed upon it by
Messrs. Morrill,, Stevens, Sumner
and The Tribune; policy which
seeks to do everything thro' the gov
eminent, and leave nothing to pri-
vate ingenuity, wisdom and effort;
which declares the president to be a
traitor, andih the same breath quad
ruplcs his powers; which declares
him to contemplate usurpation, and
yet insists on course which alone
makes such crime legal-with such
a policy the republican party CAN
NOT LIVE AND OUGHT NOT TO LIVE.
IT'S SUCCESS WOULD BE A CALAMITY
TO THE COUNTRY.

Another Instance of Bar
barity I'm the North.

At place called Holly, in the
State of Michigan, an inhuman
father, by the name of Buck, whip
ped his little son, only 10 years
of age, with strap Of leather,
until the little fellow was complete
ly exhausted; and, not satisfied
with, this, fastened heavy chain
to his ankles, attached heavy
stick of wood to the other end, and
compelled the poor boy to drag it
about during the remainder of the
day.-Exchangc.
If this little boy had been black
and the locality of the whipping in
the south, the Illustrated w eek
lies of the north would have teemed
with representations of the
horrid affair, and all radicals would
have rolled up their eyes in holy
horror at the occurrence.

IA TslicVilg Bureau"

The New York Tribune is evident,
iy becoming alarmed at the develop
mcnts Of thcfts committed by radical
members Of Congress; governors OF
states; their private secretaries :
members of the State legislatures,
&c. and calls for thicving Bureau
to take charge of the returned plum
der, or of the percentage oft return
cd by the loyal leaguers that have
fer the past five years cried "traitor'
to every man, not concurring in their
political views, while they, them
selves, were busy despoiling the pub
lie treasury. To preside over this
bureau he recommends, "a retired
clergyman and six serious clerks. y
OF the amount returned at the time
the Tribune article appeared { Aug
eth) it says:
Tho whole fund at present amounts
to only $50, 900, ESQ returned hard-
ly the piclings and stealings Of Il

What a confession for the Old
white hated philosopher Of the Tri-
hunc. The stcalings of a single day
only $50, o0O!! And this confession
from the patron Saint of the party Of
great moral ideas: How dare
the cid rcprobatc Of the Tribune thus
allule to the ''loyal'' members of
Congress, to'.Loyar' Governors,
loyal" Legislatures, Sanitary
Commissioners ''Frccdmcu's aid
Societies. and freedmen bu-
roaus'? A few more such confess
sions and the whole radical pack in
Iowa will petition Governor Stone
to appoint and set apart day when
,hcy can pray the old sinner to pan
dcmonium.
Further on the Tribune says:
1t would seem to be only the lit
tie pildling am cunts which rasp the
abstractor's spiritual nature. The
BIG THIEF can afford more costly
consultations; he can contemplate the
wonders of nature in Switzerland, or
art in Rome; he can indulge in every
thing that is PLEASANT AND WICKED

most parts Of the earth ; while
poor devil of thief is shaking in his

Certain persons of the radical
school have been very forward in
declaring all those scccssionists who
dared to disagree with them in the
manner Of conducting the great
civil war that their revolutionary
schemes forced the the country into.
III these matters this party made for
itself record which on more occas-
ions than one it has endorsed as
a party. An exposition of the views
of one Of the leaders of this party,

ty, shows'thcir views upon this ques-

The silent but impressive warning
comes to, us from the graves Of our

At recent radical meeting in
New York, one of the radical speak
ers, in allusion to the conservative
convention convened in Phila-
delphia, and the fact that the dele
gates from Massachusetts, and South
Carolina entered that convention
arm in arm; designing to be witty,
said their manner of going in was
similar to the manner the animals
entered the ark,at the time of the
food. A conservative in the crowd,
replied, that those creatures that
went into the ark were saved, while
those that remained outside were
overwhelmed with the food and de-
stroyed. The cheers that followed
are said to have completely discon-
concerted the radical.

Soldiers EBOllNtieS.

1t has been asserted 10y the radical
newspaper press of the country that
the President has stopped the pay
mcnt Of the hountics granted to Sold
iers under the act of July q, 1866.
We have the authority of the Second
Auditor, of the Department Of the
interior, to whom all such applica-
tions are referred, for pronouncing the
statement false in every particular.
The truth Of the matter is this, the
bill giving bountics was passed by
the House of Representatives almost
unanimously with the understanding
on the part Of republicans who want
cd to be returned to Congress by the
votes Of the soldiers, that the bill
should be defeated in the Senate.
This programme was carried out
to the letter, but when the bill Civ
ing a bounty to congressman Of over
$4,000 each came up in Congress, MIR.
Ancona we believe, a democrat at
all events, if not him, on motion had
an amendment tackled to the bin al
lowing the present bounty to soldiers.
And this is the bill that passed that
body allowing soldiers additional
lountics. 1t is also true that the
democratic members after persistent
efforts to that end, failed to get any
appropriation through Congress to
pay these bountics. On the cons
trary this same congress processing
80 much love for the Soldiers, whose
votes they now seek to control, on
the Goth of June passed a bill giving
bountics to colorcd soldiers, and
making appropriations to meet all
such claims.
1t is claimed that the amount in
volvcd in these negro bountics will
not fall short Of 20, 900, 900 of dol
lars, and may exceed that sum; and
while it will be months before the
white soldiers can get their bounty
money, the negroes, the peculiar
