VINO ARE DrsFRANcHlsED THE follow
ing opinion of Senator Wilson, Radical
leader, gives view of the Military proscrip-
ton act of Congress far more favorable than
had been anticipated. His letter is in re-
ply to an inquiry from gentleman of Texas :
j, NJ. Washkorn, Esq. My Dear Sir I:
In reply to your question, "Does the law as
it now exists disfranchise the rank and file
of the soldiers who had never taken an oath
to support the constitution of the United
States" have to say that it does not dis
franchise them:
The constitutional amendment disqualifes
from holding Office certain persons who have
taken an oath to support the constitution of
the United States and then engaged in the
rebellion, or gave aid or comfort to it. This
class of persons are disfranehised, and all
other persons are entitled to vote.
These persons are mentioned in the con-
stitutio1fal amendment so that all persons
will know who are disqualified and disfrah-
chised
Yours, truly @
Henry WILSON.

New AND BETTER AND CHEAPER Gas

New AND BETTER AND CHEAPER Cas-
By recent experiments made in the presence
of disinterested parties, the great value and
economy Of the gas produced by the mode
adopted by the Petroleo- Calcium Gaslight
Company has been fully demonstrated. This
is true not only as applied to the lighting of
single residences, hotels and factories, but al
SO in its application to works erected for light
ing cities, where coal alone is used in the
manufacture of gas. In the Petroleo Caleb
UNI process Of manufacturing gas, coal and
the residuum of coal oil are used in connec-
ton, or the residuum and lime, dispensing
with coal altogether. Ithas been proved be-
yond doubt that two retorts Of the ingredi-
ents last named will produce in the same
time as much gas as three retorts of coal, thus
is saved one-third of the cost of erecting and
maintaining the works. Aud then, too, 800
feet of the Petroleo-C Calcium gas will burn,
by actual measurement, as long as $50 feet of
ordinary gas furnished in our cities. Two
burners using mixed gas Of coal oil, and lime
has an Illuminating power equal to three con-
Stunning the city gas. If our gas companies
would adopt this new method, they could
furnish their customers with better gas, and
twenty per cent. cheaper than they now sup
ply, retaining thirty per cent. to swell their
already large profits. Wheeling htelligen-
GER.
Twenty and thirty make ffty-a saving of
one-half.

Z HONOR TO Whom Honor IS DuE.-The
Holly Springs Miss. Reporter, of last Fri
day, says: All who heard the address Of
Colonel Thomas w. Harris, on Friday last,
at the obsequies Of Colonel G. H. Mott, will
remember the eloquent and touching tribute
paid to Washington Martin, the freedman,
who was Colonel Motifs army servant, for
his faith ul and affectionate devotion. On
Sunday last, the Masons Of this city, as
token of their esteem for Washingto and
their admiration for his noble conduct, pre-
scented to him fine double-cased silver watch,
on the inside of the lid of which the follow
ing words are engraved: .A
Presented to Washington Martin, freed
man. by the Masons of Holly springs, for
his fidelity to our brother, Colonel G. H.
Mott, February %, 1867"
We are gratifed to see this proper and
deserved tribute to one whose actions have
merited the kindly regards of our peopls,

A Nail Factory TO BE ESTABLISHED IN
LYNcHBURa. The Lynchburg Vryinion
gives details of project to establish nail
factory by company of gentlemen of Ben
wood, West Virginia, which, it is probable,
will be located in Lynchburg. The Virgin
ian says that the mandatory which they
design establishing will consist at first Of
thirty-two nail machines, to be increased to a
larger number in the future as the demand
may require. The capacity of the 80 ma
chimes will be from ffty-fve to sixty thous-
and barrels per annum, and will require to
operate them one hundred and fifty hands.
The quantity of pig metal which will be con-
sumed in this amount of manufactures will
be three hundred and sixty OF seventy tons
year. Extensive buildings will be required
in which to carry on the operation. 1t is the
purpose Of the company to commence the
preliminary work with as little delay as pos
sible, at whatever point they may select. 1t
will require almost year to get the works
into full operation after the buildings and
machinery have been commenced. The COM
pany consists Of forty gentlemen, thirty Of
whom are practical men and will give their
personal labor and supervision to the opera
TONS The capital which they command is
about $4,000. To identify the works
more entirely with the place, and to secure
the local interest and influence, they propose
to dispose Of some of the stock to such citi-
zens as may wish to subscribe to it, the
amount Of the shares being $500 each.

THERE'S WORK ENOUGH 70 20.

THERE'S WOkA ENVUUu ~ w.
The blackbird early leaves its rest.
To meet the smiling morn,
And gathering fragments for its nest
From upland, wood and lawn;
The busy bee that wings its way,
Mid sweets of varied hue,
At every flower would seem to say
'sThere's work enough to do"
The cowslip and the spreading vine.
The daisy III the grass,
The snow drop and the egiantine,
Preach sermons as we pass;
The ant within its cavern deep,
Would bid US labor too,
And writes upon its tiny heap
There's work enough to do
To have heart for those who weep,
The scottish drunkard win;
To rescue all the children, deep
In ignorance and sin;
To help the poor, the hungry feed,
To give him coat and shoe,
To see that all can write and read,
There's work enough to do"
The time is short-the world is wide,
And much has to be done
This wond rous earth, and all its pride,
Will vanish with the sun /!
The moments fly on lightning wings,
r. And life's uncertain too;
We've none to waste on foolish things
'sThere's work enough to do
The planets, at their Makers will,
Move onward to their cars,
For natures wheel is never still
Progressive as the stars
The leaves that futter in the air,
And summer breezes woo,-
One solemn truth to man declare
There's work enough to do"
Who then can sleep when all around
Is active, fresh and free?
Shall man-creation's lord-be found
Less busy than the bee?
Our courts and alleys are the field,
If men would search them through
The best the sweets oflabor yield,
And s'work enough to do"

In the early part Of the month Of August
last. girl named Eliza Drummond, about
IL years OF age, whose parents live in the
town Of West Monroe, near Oswego, N. Y,
left her home one morning for the purpose
of picking berries, and never returned. The
most diligent search was made for her, by
the parents and their neighbors. but no ira
ces could be found. After weeks of fruit
less search and inquiry, the afflicted parents
gave up their child for lost. 1t was reported
that band Of rowing Migrants had been seen
near the locality about the time Of the disap-
pearance, and the opinion prevailed that the
child had been stolen. The event, which
created profound sensation at the time, had
almost passed from the minds of all save the
stricken parents, when it was painfully re-
called by recent occurrence. On Tuesday
last, FIVE or six lads went out hunting in the
vicinity, and, during the day, came upon a
spot where large number Of black snakes
were discovered and killed. The appearance
Of the reptiles in such numbers, and at this
season Of the year, was considered remarka-
BILE, and it was suggested by one Of the par
ty that breeding den must be somewhere
near. A search was Immediately commenced
which resulted in manner far different from
their expectation.
In the side Of a hill near the edge of a
swamp was found sort Of opening which,
in the Summer, was concealed by tall grass
and bushes. In this opening was found a
human skeleton from which every particle Of
flesh had been taken. The bones were as
white as ivory, and all perfect. Near by was
a tin pail, in a rusted condition, and tin
cup. The boys were terribly frightened,
and gave the alarm The remains were taken
from the mouth Of the den, and on examina-
ton showed that the place had been, and
probably now was, a breeding place for black
snakes The boldest hesitated to enter
The entrance, which was large enough for the
admission of mans body, grew smaller and
tended downward. Lighted balls of hay,
soaked in kerosene, were thrown into the
cavity, and in less than fifteen minutes
eighty-two snakes, ranging in length from
one and half to four feet, were killed. The
pail and cup were recognized by Mr.. and
Mrs Drummond as those taken by their child
when she went away for the last time. The
physicians pronounced the remains those of
a female child. and there can be no doubt
but that the poor little girl. while picking
berries within the vicinity of the spot, be-
came tired, seated herself in the shade of the
opening to this horrid den, was attacked by
the reptiles in numbers and killed.

FOR:LESS THAN THREE MONTHS
Girls at Home,

There are two kinds Of girls one is the
kind that appears best abroad, the girls that
are good for parties, rides, visits, balls. 80. ;,
and whose chief delight is such things; the
other is the kind that appears best at home,
the girls that are useful and cheerful IN the
dining ROOM the sick-room, and all the pre-
cincts of home. They differ widely in char
acter. One is often a torment at home !; the
other is blessing. One is moth, consu-
ming everything about her; the other is d
sunbeam, inspiring life and gladness all along
her pathway. !t5 eai ~. 60 b47f''
Now, it does not necessarily follow that
there shall be two such classes of girls.. The
right education will modify both little, and
unite their characters in one. Girls are not
made altogether for home, any more than
boys are. Society would be of but iittls
worth without women. The first pleasure
and duty Of every woman should be at home;
her next should relate to the refinement and
well-being of society. But in order that she
may benefit and adorn home. Hence, every
girl, rich and poor alike, should be carly
and we'll instructed in all the duties and cares
of home. From the cellar to the garnet. she
should know all that is to be done. From
the kitchen to the parlor she should be COM
plete mistress. All the interests Of homo
Should be as familiar to her as household
words. Neither idleness, folly nor indiffer=
ence should prevent her from engaging heart
ily in all the concerns of home life. This will
be to her school more valuable than a SEM
mary or the ladies' college. +H' uo<A
It behooves mothers, therefore, to feel
that they are teachers of the first dignity in
position q
: Their daughters win be much what they
make them The home education will lazy
the true foundation of character. It viii fix
the true principles Of life in the young girls
mind It will give her an insight into do
nestle duties and teach her that to be useful
is one great end of life. Book-education can
easily follow good home training ). but good
home training is not apt to follow the educa-
ton of the schools Girls, well taught at
home, are the girls that appear well every
where. Give us the wei! bred girls, and we
