Signs and Omens

J. To walk along the street at midnight
and find pin pointing toward you, signi-
ties good luck. To turn a corner suddenly
at the same hour and find pistol pointing
toward you, signifies thar You should git
up and git behind something A bis tree
is preferable.
2 To buy tripe on Friday is bad luck. =
To ouy it on Monday or Tuesday, or any
other day of the week, on credit, is far
warse.
% If you leave home in the morning and
forget something that you wanted to take
down town with you, it is bad luck to turn
back without making an X mark and spit
ting in the center of it. But it is worse if
your wife got up mad that morning, be
cause she might throw breakfast plate at
you for coming back when her mad storm
is up. Wait till next morning.
f. Ifyou see spark in a candle wick at
night, 1t Is d sign you are going to get a
letter. For fear the letter might be a dun
for your last biil it is best to sleep in a
room where they use gas. Candles are
good in the country, but gas is best in the
city, if you pay the gas bills regularly.
s. When a black cat comes into your
loom it is a sign of death. In order to
make 1t certainty we would ADVISE the
killing of the cat This will probably avert
a catastrophe in The family, that might
cause grief, aud won't hurt the cat much
only one ninth.
g. IF lady put on her stockings wrong
side outward, it is a sign Of good luck-lf
she does it unintentioaly. If she does 1t
on purpose, it is a sign the stockings are
not as white as snow. In view of the fact
that ladies' do not wear stockings unless
they are as white as snow, this fact applies
onIyto.." blue. stockings.
7. If you dream that you are dining at
a first class restaurant on the choicest VI
ands, it is sign that you went to bed hun
cry. 1t is supposed that the patrons OF
lunch houses only have such dreams.

Gov. Randall and the Republican
| PARTY

A special despatch from Washington to
one of the Chicago papers of the 24th
says:
1.-The Mtc17igencer will tomorrow publish
letter from postmaster General Randall on
/ the political situation. 1t is addressed to
citizen of Wisconsin. and opens by de-
nouncing the Republican party of that State
/ for advocating in their State Convention the
impeachment of President johnson. He
says the latter has done nothing to be i'm
peached for. and maintains that, if Con-
gress had not interfered with him, the poll
cy of the administration would have result
ed long since in the representation, by
loyal men, Of every State in the South. =
He closes bv trusting that Wisconsin will
Join New York in the following Ohio and
Pennsylvania p"
There has never been the slightest oc-
castor to doubt the attitude of Governor
Randall toward the Randall element Of the
Republican party. He now believes the
Democracy to be the only reliance of liber-
al Republicans for the restoration Of good
Government to the country.
Gov Randall was the actual founder of
the Republican organization in this State.
He led it to victory, and did more to sus-
tain it than any hundred of its present
Radical leaders. He leaves the Republi-
can party now, not solely because the is
sues on which it was founded are settled,
but also because that party has become
iaithles- to every profession by which it
acquired power.-Netcs

The Negro in Ohio.

The returns from Ohio, where the que,-
ton of negro suffrage was submitted un-
,rameIled to the people, in a proposed
amendment to the State Constitution. show
that the proposition is defeated by several
thoueand. The Jacobins there had made
the issue that the test OF loyalty was
giving the ballot to all men; and they have
lost. When it is remembered that this
party has asked the Southern States to
place such clause in their ovn constitu
ton, as preliminary to the admission of
their Representatives into Congress, and
to reduce their representation in Congress
unless they let the negro and all negroes
vote, then the beauty and consistency be-

How THEY KEEP THEIR PLEDGES
Hon D. w. VOORHEES,, in one of his elo-
quent speeches before an Ohio audience
during the late canvass, uttered the follow
ing concerning the broken pledges Of the
Republican party:
Why. they have broken their OWN
pliohted faith a thousand times over since
the war. | have shown you that not one
rledge have they kept The Crittenden
resolutions they broke their laws in every
form recognizing these Southern States as
States, they have broken. They have re.
puliated principle; they have repudiated
their own record made during the war :;
they have repudatcd their promise, made
to the soldier. Republication has been their
daily word, and by it they have blasted and
withered the fruits which the war should
have brought to the people. "

Mas. LINCoLN's HOUSE IN CHICAGO
A Chicago correspondent Of the New York
World writes:
"Mrs. Lincoln was the owner of fash
;onahle four-story marble front house,
bought two years ago at cost of sl6 900,
which conld be sold to day for $25, 000.-
This dwelling is said to have been eomplet-
" furnished in the most elegant style,
which furniture was sold at auction, reaiz-
ing almost their full retail value when Mrs.
Lincoln discontinued hou, excepting last
Summer At the same time she parted
with a valuable carriage andispan of horses,
besides the usual appropriate accessories o!
a first class equipage, 50 thai at the begin
ming of the summer, or rather late in the
spring, Mrs. Lincoln must have had at
least $40 900 in ready money. She spen,
the summer very quietly and economically
at Racine, situated few miles from lake
Michigan. 1t was pretty generally pub
lished that Mr.. Lincoln had accumulated
$50 600, which were invested in Govern
ment bonds on deposit in Washington
This, with the addition of Mrs. Lincoln
personal estate aud the $25 900 appropria
ted by Congress, makes the value of the
personal estate inherited by Mrs. Lincoln tc
be about s. 10000, to say nothing about the
real estate described in the inventory of the
Lincoln estate recently published
