IT is notorious fact, as Gen. GAR
FIELD asserts, that " it is both safe
and honorable in the South to have
been rebel, while it is both danger
Gus and disgraceful for Soutkerner
to have been loyal to the Union.

A GREAT many paragraphs have
been going the rounds of the press
ridiculing Prof. Hoss, our present
Superintendent of Public Instruction.
Our own correspondent, at the Capt.
tai, has also seen proper to criticise
the Professors Annual Report.
While the report itself is legitimate
subject of criticism, and even of ridi-
cule, if deserving of it, we do not be-
lieve the Professor countenances,
much less encourages, the writing of
anonymous letters threatening CORES
pondents who may choose to say hard
things about his report through the
newspapers. However deficient he
may be as a rhetorician, we regard
Prof. Hoss as Christian gentleman,
and one who has contributed largely
to the cause of education in this
State AS mathematician he has
few equals, and wherever he has
taught he has given the best satisfac-
ton.
We will say. further, that SO far as
our knowledge extends, Prof. Hoss
has made an energetic, conscientious
and efficient School Superintendent.
This fact we never heard called in
question until the appearance of his
unfortunate report The Professor is
not the first educator who has been
unfortunate in his printed produc-
tons. 1t is we'll known to printers
that were the manuscripts, submitted
to them by the great men of
our. country, always followed in punct-
uation, grammar and rhetoric, about
three-fourths of our great national
lights would suddenly be snufed out.
These facts should be remembered
by those who are so shocked at the
errors In the Annual Report of the Su-
perintendent of Public instruction.

THE Detroit Post commends PAR
TONS article on Chicago as one of
his most successful notwithstanding
that PARTON fairly surpassed him
SELF
"When he represents Chicago as
Paradise, with its crystal river run
ming through it, its cultivated So
ciety, where literary talents and per-
sonal refinement are humorously
given as the criterion of admission to
It; It's religious tone; the honorable
pursuits Of its SPECTATORS; its sedate
and, quiet citizens, with their inherent
modesty; its moderate and conscien-
tious newspapers, and so on"
We had been thinking of purchas-
ing PARToN's works, complete, but if
he writes such stuff as the above
about Chicago, our faith in his re-
liability as biographer or historian,
is greatly shaken. Nor can we be re-
conciled by the statement, believed
by many, that the Chicagoites en-
ployed him, for a large sum, to fputfi
their muddy city, expecting to get
their money back by the increase Of
immigration attracted by such Mum
ehausen stories. "Chicago-with Its
sedate and quiet citizens, with their
inherent modesty;" - its moderate
and conscientious newspapers
Phew that certainly is a bigger thing
than the tunnel itself, and cooler than
the water they expect to draw from
the bottom of the lake.

THANKs-To Mr.. Frank F. Dusou-
Chef, of the fine steamer j. 2. Webb,
for a late number of the Evansville
daily Journal, twelve hours ahead of
the mail. GrayUiUe Register.
The above is sad commentary on
the efficiency of our mail connections
with our best customers. That a
newspaper should reach GRANVILLE by
the 'round-a- bout" river route twelve
hours ahead of the mails sridiculous,
and such a miserable arrangement
ought to be changed at once. We
must have a railroad running from
this point through Southern Illinois.

Goods at Value.

We have the most complete stock
of Staple and Fancy Dry Goods, suit
ed to the season, which we will sell of
cheap until March. We make no
ridiculous pretensions by advertising
articles cheap, and when customers
call for them "are just out" or by
pretending to sell at cost (cost to Gus
toners, of course). Many goods are
high enough at Eastern cost.
With many thanks to our friends
and customers for the past VERY
LIBERAL PATRONAGE, we enter the
new year with confident hope of
continuance of the same, and promise
to leave nothing undope to merit it.

The Grand Army

The New York Tribune thus pay 8
its respects to the Grand Army of
the Republic.
We find q sentiment in the West
that has expression in few misera-
BILE, jobbing newspapers kind Of
Thenadier feeling. A number of
office beggars and politicians, call
ing themselves the Grand Army Of
Of the Republic, and meeting in out
of-the-way places with grips and
passwords, are passing resolutions
demanding confscation and farms.
This is either knavery or madness
People who want farms work for
them. The only class we know
that takes other peoples property
because they want it is largely rep
resented at Sing Sing. The people
of this country do not want Sing

America by the gallows and the

the spirit of kindnes will prevail
especially because this contest is
not made by the Southern people.

Not Qualified.

When John Brown, D. D., had
settled in Haddington, the people Of
his parish gave him a warm and en-
thusiastic reception; only one of the
members of that large church stood
out in opposition to him. The rev.
erend doctor tried all means in his
power to convert the solitary dissen-
ter to unity Of feeling which pervaded
the whole body, but all his efforts
to obtain an interview proved abor-
tive. AS Providence directed, how
ever, they happened one day to
meet in the street, when the doctor
held out his hand, saying, "My
brother, I understand you are op-
posed to my settling at Hadding-
ton."
Eyes, SIR" replied the parisioner
"Wen, and if it be a fair dues-
tion, on what grounds do you object
to me?"
"Because, SIR" says he, 81 don't
think you are qualified to fill so i'm
portant a post.
"That is my opinion, replied the
doctor; "but what, sir, is the use OF
you and setting up our opinion in
Opposition to the whole parish?'
The brother smiled, and their
friendship was sealed forever. How
very true. and forcibe Gods word:
'A-soft answer turneth away wrath.
