Weston and Sheridan.

The Chicago Times of the Sd inst, thus
notices the exhibition in that city Of Wes-
ton, the great walker, and the great Mon
grel, Phil. Sheridan, late Duke of Orleans !:
aGallant Phil Sheridan arrived in
Chicago lastnight, and was delivered OF a
speech on the balcony Of the fremont
House. The crowd which was present at
the delivery was small portion OF the
same crowd that assembled the other day
to see Weston exhibit his legs on the bal
cony of the Sherman house,
The two exhibitions were alike in other
respects, Both the exhibitors we're repre-
sentatives of brute force. Weston repre-
seuted the force of legs. Sheridan repre-
sented the force of arms. .Weston's legs
oyercame the distance between Portland
and Chicago. Sheridan's arms overcame
the lawful rights of the people in Louisa-
ma. Neither received any great assistance
from brains, as neither is the possessor OF
any great share of that endowment. 1t
was not brains in either case that the
crowd assembled to witness. In one, it was
the curiosity that attracts people to horse
race. In the other, it was the curiosity
which attracts them to bull-fght. In
both, it was the animal they went to see.-
OF the two animals, Weston was the
greater curiosity. and drew the larger
crowd. The inferior animal, Sheridan
seemed somewhat disguised that Yves
toms legs should thus eclipse, in the est.
nation Of Chicago, hisown bull head.

This important order of General Han
cock, which we publish elsewhere, has
struck terror and CONSERVATION into the
ranks of the Radicals. They have COM
menced their howl and call on the Rump
to come to their rescue. We rather think
the Rump is nearly played out and has its
hands full Of its own concerns without
coming to the help Of the Louisiana layout.
The Radical Central Committee Of New
Orleans has issued the following:
WHEREAS, Major-General Hancock, in
revoking the jury order of Major General
Sheridan, by which colored citizens were
admitted as Jurors in courts within the
State, has taken step highly dangerous
to the peace, liberty, and happiness Of three
hundred thousand colored citizens, and
dangerous to their white Republican friends;
therefore,
Resoloed, By the Central Executive
committee Of the Republican party Of the
State of Louisiana, that the power OF con-
oress be invoked to save the loyal people
Of the State from the dangers Of this step
backward to slavery and to the rule ofrcbels
and traitors.
Resolred, That copy Of these resolu.
tions be at once telegraphed by the presl-
ident Of this committee to Hon. Robert y
Schenek, chairman Of the Union Repub!i
can congressional committee.

REPORT OF THE SECRETARY OF THE Treas.
URY.-We fad the following summary Of
the report Of the Secretary of the Treasury
in the Washington correspondent Of tine
st. Louis Republican ofthe I'd inst:
1t is learned positively that the Secreta-
ry holds to his we'll known policy Of the
contraction Of the currency, and thinks
that the law giving him the discretion TO
contract $4S,000,000 per year. ought not
to be repealed. He takes, on the other
hand, strong ground against the expansion,
and declares that if that policy be inaueu-
rated by Congress, it will prove disastrous
to the country, and ultimately lead to repu-
diation. He interprets the laws in refer
ence to the Government bonds as pledsing
the country TO their payment, principal and
interest, in coin. He believes that if their
redemption in currency be adopted the re-
suit would be disastrous. He has sufficient
gold in the Treasury to pay oil demands on
the Government and keep the market in
check but gives his reasons fol. not selling
more gold, and states that if he shold do
so, it would be bought up by spectators
who could then control the market.

Hancock is Just now the first soldier OF the

ter" as an emblem of victory7 Please
explain. DEMOCRAT.
Columbus, October II, 1867.
Because the game rooster is the gam
est bird, when encroached upon by his
fellows, that ever existed, and the
Democracy is the gamest party that
ever voted at an election or resented
oppression. Both the party and its
emblem, when they 60 into the fight,
make it a matter of life and DEATH
Both may be whipped but not con-
quered, for giving up when once in the
fight, is word unknown to the prac-
tee of the rooster, and is not found in
the Democratic vocabulary.
This is one reason for adopting the
rooster as an emblem Of Democracy /;
another reason is this:
During the war of 1912, the British
on Lake Champlain were attacked by
the American feet under Commodore
McDonough. The feet of McDonough,
much inferior 70 that Of the English,
suffered terribly in the first part of the
battle. At the moment when it was
raging fercest-the heaviest fire of the
enemy directed against the flagship OF
McDonough-his men driven from their
guns by the fierce cannonade, and dis
may sat upon every countenance, and
/ the storm of iron hail, which seemed to
threaten destruction not only to the
ship but to every living soul therein,
was at the hight--a cannon ball struck
a chicken coop and knocked it into
pieces, killing all it contained but a
minute before, save only game roost-
er, whose battered comb bore the
marks of many death fight. Flying
upon the bulwarks of McDonough's
flag ship, the noble bird, undaunted by
the noise, and confusion, and carnage
around him, with clarion voice rang
out his notes of defiance and OF victory.
Sailors are ever superstitious, and
when in the pause Of the thunder OF
the enelny's cannon, they heard the
shrill "cock a-doo-dle- doo," of the I'M
daunted bird, they gathered new cour-
age, and repairing again to their guns,
returned anew the fire of the enemy
cheered by the loud crow of the brave
emblem of Democracy, until the battle
ended and McDonough, on Lake Cham
plain, like the Democracy in Ohio, was
victorious over the enemies OF tht
country.
Every naval historian makes men
ton of the act, and history says tina
the bravery shown on that occasion b.
the rooster was the cause of the veto
ry, by the renewed courage it gave t
the sailors in McDonough's fleet.
From that day to this, in politica
contests, the rooster has been the Dem
ocratic emblem of victory, and when j
is seen in the act of sending forth it
''cock- -doo-dle-doo," at the head of
Democratic newspaper, it is right t.
say the country is safe, for the victor.
is with the Democracy.
!, The gallant birds that graeed OH
columns, growing over Ohio redeemed
from Abolition misrnle, are believed tt
be, if not lineal descendants, livins
likenesses of the one that cheeret
McDonough and his men on to victor.

An Interesting Incident.
from the Richmond Enuuirer.l


Quite an interesting incident took place
at the Catholic Orphans Fair room, on
Main street, Thursday night last. Mr.. JEFF
ierson Davis, accompanied by Judge Ould,
visited the fair on that night, and, whilst
he was enjoying the delicacies at the sup
per table, the ladies and gentlemen present
agreed to rattle off a most beautiful cigar
stand with music box attached, which
had been sent with many other handsome
articles, from Brussels, Belgium, the winner
to present it to him. The rattle occurred.
and the prize was won by gentleman from
Baltimore, Mr.. Nj, who requested that
Miss. NJ. G. G. , the interesting young
lady who was instrumental in getting up
the rattle, should present it in the name Of
those who had contributed. Miss. IL,
approaching the ex,president, said:
'MI. Davis-In the name and at the re-
quest of the gentleman who won the prize,
and Of those ladies and gentlemen who
contributed, | present you this token Of
our respect for you, the president Of the
Confederate States. We. only wish that
we had something more worthy of your &C
ceptance, but, after looking around the Ia
BILE, find nothing more suitable. and, though
small the gift, we hope you will accept it.
We wish from our hearts every blessing for
yourself and family"
In reply, Mr.. Davis said:
II thank you and the ladies and gentle
men for your kindness, and will place this
with the gold-headed cane presented to me
by the Catholic ladies' Of Norfolk, who held
a fair for charitable purpose last spring
Your kindness will not be forgotten. The
Catholics have always been my friends
and cannot forget the circumstance that
the holy father, the head Of your church
was the first sovereign who sent me his
blessing in my misfortunes. May God
bless you ALL"
After which, Mr.. Davis departed, amidst
the adieus and blessings Of those present

PLEA FOR THE BOYS.

Young men must work and old men rest
They have earned their quiet joys;
And everywhere, from east to west,
The boys must still be boys.
They do not want your longer sight,
Nor want your wisdom grim;
The boy has right to the boys delight,
And play is the work for him.
The idle day is the evil day,
Arid work in its time is right;
For he that wrestles best in the play
VIII wrcstle best in the fight.
Then do not, as the hours run by,
Their harmless pleasure clip; !
For he that sails his kite to the sky
May some time sail q ship.
And soon enough the years will steal
Their moor Of frolic joys;
So keep your shoulder to the wheel
And let the boys be boys.
