over the earth in their flower pots. This keeps the
water from cooperating, and the temperature more

A mother who was in the habit of asking her
children before they retired for the night what
they had done to make others happy, found her
two twin daughters silent. The question was re-
peted. 81 can remember nothing good all this
day, dear mother; only one of my schoolmacs
was happy because she had gained head Of the

with me on the bench at school, has lost little

Tlae Last Hope.

1t seems to be the grand central idea
with the Republican party that one
man holds in his hands its destiny
Upon his course depends the veal or
woe oftheir party. Their newspapers
are all eager to define his position in
advance; they explain the path he
must follow, and cling to him with
the fondest hopes and most glorious
anticipations. Should he fail to be
with them, oh! who shall deliver them
from the bondage of death That
man is no other than Gen. Grant. Has
Gen. Grant ever been the bold adyo-
cate and stern defender of their party
principles? Has he ever been regard
ed rs the embodiment of Radicalism
by an intelligent people? Can the
achievements ola general, without the
qualifications of statesman, give him
the preference over all others of those
that have battled for the cause, found
eI the party and are deserving of the
chiefest honors in its ranks? Certain
" the party has forgotten to give
honor to whom honor is due" What
is the reason they do not speak more
of representative men ?-mcn who rep
resent the issues that have been tested
III the recent elections ? such as Sum
ner, Phillips, Garrison or Brownlow !;
few of the many representing the
doctrine of Universal Manhood Suf
fragc," and everlasting taxation and
confscation % When such as these
find they are deserted by their friends,
and all their labors lost, is it surPris-
ing if we should hear of their dcscr-
ton and tearing down of the temple
reared for their own glorification ? It
is evident that such men rs Sumner,
Stevens Sc Co. cannot win. The re-
cent elections have buried them with
lt4e ISShCS AhCs > hi5 "pph tHS PNp-
pie. Their doom is sealed, and there
is no hope for the party unless they
can get some man like Grant, not fully
committed to their schemes, to snatch
it from the gulf of destruction. The
party platform will no longer win, and
hence the destiny of the great ''Union
party" so-called, hangs upon the
course of one man. But with the
Democratic party-whosc principles
are, equal and exact justice to all
men, special privileges to nonc"-who
go for principle, not men,-it points
to no man as holding its destiny, nor
cares for them that seek favor aside
from principle. No one man can con-
troll the progress of that party which
looks to the welfare Of all the people,
and is marching with rapid strides to
glorious victory. J. II. S.

The danger to the public service comes
not from the power to remove, but from
the power to appoint; therefore it was
that the trainers Of the Constitution left
the power of removal unrestricted, while
they gave the Senate right to reject all
appointments which in its opinion were
not fit to be made A little reflection on
this subject will probably satisfy all who
have the good Of the country at heart that

Der of Republicans have been in Wash

adds:
"What do these financial patriots pro-
pose to do? Simply to return to specie
payments about eight months from this
time-that is to say on the Both of June
next. And this is to be done by redeem
ing in gold the bonds these patriots hold
That is, the Government shall pay fer the
bonds about thirty per cent. more than
they are worth in the market. The Gov
ernment can now enter the market. just
the same as Mr.. Smith, Jones or Brown
can, and buy these bonds at little over
20 cents in gold Yet it must not do so,
according to these philosophers it must
give a hundred in gold, thoug all the
rest of the world can buy at seventy, or
it must not buy at all until the market is
forced up to par. This would be nice
little arrangement for the bondholders,
if practicable. /"
THE Pioneer Oil Mill made oil yester-
day for the first time. We visited there
and went over it with much interest.
The seed is crushed by iron rollers then
is ground, or mplIed, by large stone null
lers, which are seven feet in diameter and
and about sixteen inches thick, weighing
$500 pounds. They tread around in a
circle on a stone bed, MASKING the meal
still finer. The meal is heated by steam
from boiler outside; then put into bags
and pressed-oil being used in the press
instead of water. The oil is then forced
out of the meal, and the oil cake is left,
which is also very valuable. Thisis again
ground up into meal for feed. The COM
pany, Mr.. Cartwright tells US, has about
10000 bushels of seed to manufacture,
