he will carry this case up to President

CZAR SICKLEs ISSUES AN "UKAsE" =
At a parade of fremen in Charleston, last
week, Gen. SCKLEs, the Car of the I'd
military district issued an ukase, orderin 6
that the American flag be carried in process
sion and properly saluted. 1t is well
enough for societies on parade to carry the
Stars and Stripes if they see fit to do SO,
but we question if it is in good taste to
make men kneel.before freedom S banner.
However, the radicals have 'patent" lib
erty peculiar to themselves, and we suppose
ere long Congress will issue mandate COM
manding every one to fall down and wor-
ship the national ensign as the Buddhist
worships his idols.

NIaxims on Money.

The art of living easily. as to money,
is to pitch your scale of living one de-
gree below your means. Comfort and
enjoyment are more dependent upon
easiness in the detail of expenditure
than upon any degree in the scale
Guard against false associations OF
pleasure with expenditure-the no
ton is absurd that because pleasure
can be purchased with money, there
fore money cannot be spent without
enjoyment. What a thing costs a man
is no true measure of what it is worth
to him and yet how often is his ap-
probation governed by no other stand
ard, as if there were a pleasure in ex-
penditure per Sc.
Let yourself feel want before you
provide against it. You are more as
sured that it is a real want, and it is
worth while to feel it little in order
to feel relief from it. When you are
undecided as to which of the two
courses you like best, choose the cheap
est. This rule will not only save mon
ey, but save also good deal of trihing
indecision. Too much leisure lead to ex.
pense because when man is in want
of objects, it occurs to him that they
are to be had for money. and he in
vents expenditure in order to pass
the time.-Henry Taylor.

digestion. By cleansing the stomach with
Sehenck's Mandrake Pills. the Tonic soon res
torres the appetite, .and food that could not be
eaten before using it will be easily digested.

A Convent Blown Up.

NEW YORK, December 23.-Mail adj
vices from Gambia give the details OF
the disaster to the Turks at the Con-
vent of Arcadian. The convent con-
tanned FIVE hundred and forty souls,
including three hundred and forty
three women and children, leaving one
hundred and ninety-seven men to de-
fend it against Mustapha Pacha's ar
my of $4,000 men. The Cretans re-
fused to surrender, and the Turks
bombarded the convent two days and
nights. After preaching tine walls, the
Turks poured into the court of the con-
vent, when a monk fred a magazine,
hurting Christians and Turks into the
air. Two thousand Turks were killed
and large number were wounded
Only thirty-nine men and sixty wo-
men and children of the garrison were
left alive. There were over one thous-
and wounded. The Turks burned sew
en- Cretan villages, in revenge for
which the Cretans have burned twen-
ty-seven Turkish villages.

The "Fat Contributors" on Ac,
cIdeRt Insurance.

The "Breakneck Accident Insurance
Company" wrote to the "Fat Contribu-
tor" not long since to work up column
or so OF inducements for people to take
out policies. This Is the way he did it:
Everybody should get insured against
accidents. No matter ifyou belong to
one of the 'best of families" es"-acci-
dents will happen in them.
Get policy. The old proverb says
Honesty is the best policy" but that
was before Accident Insurance Compa-
nies started. Now the best policy is 3
policy in the 'Breakneck."
The other day a man in Chicago fell
out of a fourth story window. He had
no insurance, and consequently was
killed. Another man on the same day
fell out with his wife. He was insured
in the "Breskneck," and is ready to
fall out again.
A woman driving a spirited horse in
st. Louis was run away with. Being
insured against accidents, she wasn't
alarmed bit, stopped the horse and
came back safe. Her policy running
out, she neglected to renew it. Short
ly after she was ran away with again.
Her husbands partner ran a10ay with
her this time, and she hasn't come back
yet. Don't fail to renew your policy,
particularly if it is in the ''Breakneck."
At Dubuke, Iowa, man was kicked
by horse. The horse wasn't insured,
and he got kicked back.
Near Paris, KY, a man, while en-
gagged in running a,circular saw, had his
arms taken off. They consisted of a
cavalry sabre and a double barreled
shot gun. The maa who carried them
oft had an accident insurance-and he
hasn't been caught yet.
In Utica, n. Y, man accidentally
got married. Being insured in the
"Breakneek." he will receive SIS
week until he RECEIVERS.
Andy johnson writes from Washing
ton Ny Policy has run out. Send
me another by express"
A young man in Portsmouth, Ohio,
was Tilted by young lady and sued
her to recover damages. Insured in the
"Breakneck." Fifteen dollars week
until he RECEIVERS.
A man was sentenced to solitary con-
finement for life in the Michigan State
Prison. Policy in the "Breakneck,"
fifteen dollars a week as long as he is
confined to his room.
Near Portland, Maine, a poor man
fell from loft and broke his neck
He received his insurance, $1,000, from
from the "Breakneck," with which he
was enabled to set himself up IN busi-
ness, and is now doing well.
Our agent at Cleveland, o., writes;-
ga lumber horse ran away with bob
tailed wagon and tipped the street
over into ssmall woman and six elder
children. The horse began to cry and
the wagon bled freely at the nose, but
otherwise the street is doing well. Nol

The WhIskey Frauds In New
York,

The Washington correspondent ot
the Cincinnati Gazette has the follow
ing in relation to the frauds in New
York:
Men of high business standing are
engaged in buying this illicit whisky,
with perfect impunity, the inspectors
of whiskey and the inspectors of distil-
leries being, many of them, directly
implicated, and many of them have
made fortunes in the few months since
their appointment. These men were
all recently appointed under the aus
pices of the johnson Club here, and
many ofthem seem to have been Sc
lected with special reference to raising
funds for political purposes.
One man, who had the disposal of
much of the Government patronage,
made five hundred thousand dollars
in two months by dealing in illicit
whisky. Revenue agents recently sp-
pointed and deeply implicated, had
their places bought for them by deal
ers in whisky Of the johnson Club /;
and speaking generally, enormous sums
of money have been paid on one hand
to secure the appointment of men who
would either participate directly or
wink at their frauds, and on the other
to raise money for these clubs. 1t is
believed that half the whiskey bond in
New York has been entered by first
securing permission TO withdraw it for
re-disstilling, and then filling it with
water instead.
In the matter of tobacco, large frauds
were discovered. A mans stock is
seized for false returns. He is advised
to consult a certain attorney in the
ring. The attorney recommends a
compromise and the parties divide re-
suits.
The committee, in investigating the
frauds in the custom house in New York,
have discovered still more glaring cases
than those given above, and many lead
ing johnson men, and even the White
House household are deeply implicated.
The whisky interest in New York
and throughout the country has been
using every effort to secure the removal
of Commissioner Rollins, as he has con-
stantly stood in their way. A very
large sum was raised to bribe the COM
mittee, but the effect has only been to
increase its vigilance.
Heavy frauds upon the revenue have
been reported at Cincinnati. The COM
mittee will probably visit that place
some time after the holidays.

A nation leaps With joy az last.

As when the shepherds watched of old,
And in Its coming now appearetn,
The daWning of the days OF gold;
Glad tidings; send abroad the WatehwOrd,
Glad paeaus sound from sea to sea,
A nation, glorious in her triumph.
Baptised anew 10 liberty,

He speaketh now, let traitors heed 1t;
Justice still lives. let traitors die!
No more shall tyrants, leagUed transgressors,
By riobf dirine oppress the poor,
For freedom guaTdeth all the ramparts,
Justice still lives: their reign Is Ger.

From the Wheeling Intelligencer. ]

NEGRO SUFFRAGE.-It IS undeniably
true that in voting against Negro Suf-
frsge in the District of Columbia, our
three members in the lower House of
Congress represented their constitu-
ents. 1t cannot be truthfully said that
the people of West Virginia a. in ia
vor of such suffrage as the situation
stands. But while this is true, it is al
so equally true that the tendency of
the popular mind is strongly turned in
that direction, and every day that pass
es over our heads sees this tendency
growing more and more positive. We
are bound to come to it in the long
run. 1t is like putting down of the re-
belllon, but a question of time. The
Union of the South are clamorous for
negro suffrage. They demand 1t not
only as a matter of selfPreservation
but also as a matter of gratitude to
those who were their only friends du-
ring the dark and uncertain hours of
the rebellion. At the North, the op-
position to negro suffrage is growing
perceptibly fainter all the time. The
sudden turning round OF few leading
Democratic papers in its favor, has de-
moralized and almost silenced the op-
position that was heard so. loudly in
the late campaign. The Democracy,
we may say, have virtually abandoned
the contest and scarcely made a show
of fight in any locality. In Boston, the
other day, they ran a negro candidate
and cast several hundred votes for him.
The same will happen elsewhere next
election, and thus, in a year or two,
the whole ground will be Yielded
How long it will take West Virginia
to school herself up to'the point, is a
matter of mere speculation. We should
say, however, that the process would
not be tedious. She is not apt to be
far behind in all the steps that look to
a reconstruction of the Union on a ba-
sis that will insure not only a perma-
nent peace, but likewise that of all those
who stood by her side when she was in
the field.

= Mr.. BRIGHT THREATENs.-M Mr.. Bright's
utterances on the reform question, dai-
ly grow more bolder From calm ar
gument, he is steadily passing to in
Limitations and threats of open force.
In a recent meeting, speaking of Par
iament's pertinaeious rejection of re
form, he said Aud now they resist
up to this moment, and for aught l
know they may possibly resist when
they meet at the beginning oEnext
February, until the discomfort what is
now so general becomes universal, and
which is now only a great exhibition
of opinion may become necessarily and
inevitably great and menacing exhi-
bition of force"
He might as well have added, what
is doubtless his secret conviction, and
what the history of the Reform Bill of
1882 shows, that only by force will any
material concessions in the interests of
the masses ever be made. When, in
modern history, did an aristocracy vol
part with its power and pc
negatives?

The Eaton Register records the death
of John Aukerman, who had lived on a
farm near Eaton sixty years. He was
81 years old.
"A young lady objected to negro's
carrying her across a mud hole, because
she thought herself too heavy. "Lor's,
missus," said Sambo, imploringly, "I's
carried whole barrels Of sugar"
The world-renowned Rothschilds
ascribe their success to the following
rules: Be an off-handed man; make a
bargain at once. Never have anything
to do with an unlucky man or plan
Be cautious and bold.
There is said to be a man living in
this vicinity, who is so mean that when
he sends a servant down cellar for
apples, he requires him to whistle con-
tinuously all the way down and back,
so as to be certain that he cannot taste
of the fruit.
Love is as necessary to a woman's
heart as a fashionable bonnet to her
head. Indeed, we think, rather more
so; for nothing less than a large meas
ure of love will content her; whereas
the recent fashion has shown that she
can be satisfied with a very little bon
net.
The wind is the merriest, and mad
dest, and saddest. End gladdest of pi-
pers in the world. He makes all things
his instruments-he whistles on the
reeds and sighs on the flag; sometimes
he makes a chimney his mouthpiece;
then the tunes he plays on a simple
smoke-pipe are the widest and weird
est, and he puffs and blows and
smokes like q burgomaster.
"A poor woman and her child late
ly settled in a Western city and were
greatly reduced in need of food. The
child, seeing a chicken in the back
yard, wanted to kill it and have a pot
pie. "No, no" said the mother, "that
would be wicked, and God would sure
ly punish you." 'Then," said the
youngster, looking ap, "let's move
back to New York; there amt any
God there"
Those who give the cold shoulder
to people who neglect their own busi-
ness in order to attend to the business
of others, should be ranked among the
most estimable members of the COM
munity; while, on the other hand, all
men and women who encourage Title
tattle deserve to be morally scalded
every hour of the day with the ''hOt-
water" in which they are sure TO in
volve themselves and Others.
The gentlemen who have been going
about through the country swindling
the people with patent hay and ma
nure loader, have finally all come to
grief. Two Of them were arrested in
Belmont county, a few days ago, and
falling to give bail in the sum OF one
thousand dollars each, as required, they
found their way to jail.
