Thorc are no great men alive now

Thore are no great men alive now
in the United States or Territories
$50 called" We have men amongst
us comparatively great-some who
rise above the dull fiat level of the
common sort, as we find hillocks in
swamps, but none of the mountain
GUS order. The giants of former
days have all gone. John Bell one
of the few survivors has not life
enough to span chasm of mediocrity
which intcrvenes between the great
Past, and coming Future, when wis
dom will surely reign again.
Such a hiatus is great misfor-
tune to any nation, and it is ill for
any people whose lots may be cast
in such period. 1t is i'll for us
now. We want hero. One of the
Godlike amongst men. Good and
gifted.-Such a one as Washington
in his day. But we look around
and the mind can fix on no such one.
And meanwhile all goes wrong both
North and South. The first is mad,
proposing and attempting the cru
elcst a n d insanest things. The
other is frightened and dcmoralized,
and goes headlong in flock almost
any whittier, with no Moses to lead
them out of tho Wilderness.
1t would be all very discouraging
but that there remains to us the
hope in Common Sense, and the nor
NAL regard for Right and Justice
which prevades all average intel
lects, and comes at last with the
sober second thought. This for
correction of Southern errors; and
the want of sagacity and foresight
to carry ont their schemes on the
part of Northern radicals are the
grounds of hope-and strong ones
Already it seems that the radicals
have made terrible blunder for
them. - Washington Telegraph.

The Judge referred the inquiry to
Mr.. White, the clerk, who issued
marriage licenses and kept record.
The record was examined, and
sure enough the. names in question
= were found. Mr.. IImnsby gazcd
in blank despair at the two names.
Tho big drops Of perspiration gath
cred on his brow, but he did not
turn pale. Finally, he broke forth
in the following soliloquy: "Woll,

The distressed father turned from
the fatal record, and approached the
Judge again.
"Mr. Judge, did you know that
gal was my daughtcr?"
The Judge remarked that he was
not appraised of the fact.

pointed parent, "and l had pickle

agood bit whittier than my wife, and

The Judge suggested if the fortu

his color, the best thing would prob
ably be an early reconciliation.

"but | can't stand Indignation

Not long since the loyal quarry
owners of New England dismissed
great many OF their employees
who voted the Democratic ticket.
No word OF condemnation of the
occurrence appeared in any Repub-
lican newspaper. 1t is reported
that white men, at the late election
in Tennessee, dismissed negroes for
voting the Radical ticket. The mere
ranmor of the outrage has driven all
Radical newspapcrdom into state
of violent Indignation.

A New SwINDLKG SCHEMR.-It seems that
en- who are determined not to work. but I've
at the expense of others, have brains prolifi
with swtndltng schemes whereby to increase
u cir pecuniary possessions We learn of
another-a disgraceful act which occurred but
lately. A man said to be red.faced, red
whiskered, and pursy, with the air OF
grandee, came to Philadelphia and obtained
the services of about fifty Germans-Who were
far from being in even moderate circumstances,
and then out of work-to pluck peaches for
him in his extensive orchards near Delaware
City. Only too rejoiced to get something to do,
these hny Germans gave their assent, and a
day or two since, headed by their new-found
employer, entered the railroad depot, from
which they were to take the train to Delaware
City. Before entering the cars, our large faced
but small hearted man went TO each OF his en-
ployes, and collected Sl'25 TO pay their fare as
q party, he averred. This sum each gave will
ingly out of their magic purses, which they
hoped to well replenish soon; and this indivi-
nelreceived about S65 in all.
betrain started with the party, and, when
CCf vemilesou, the conductor came for his
j. The Germans referred him TO their en-
CS6I;but he, TO their great tastonishment, was
howhele e to be found. The whole party were put
off the train, and after waiting long and
anxiously for their quondam friend and sup
posed beDefactor, who never came, the truth
burst upon them that they had been swlnded
out of what little they possessed, and were many
miles away from their homes, with the dark
ness OF night all around them.
