DON'T STAND STILL.-If you do you
will be run over. Motion, action, pro-
gress-these are the words which now
fill the vault of heaven with their
stirring demands, and make humani-
ty's heart pulsate with a stronger
bound. Advance, or stand aside; do
not block up the way and hinder the
career of others; there is too much to
do now to allow of inacation anywhere
or in any one. There is something for
all to do; the world is becoming more
and more known; wider in magnitude;
closer in interest; more loving and
eventful than the old. Not in deeds of
daring, not in the. ensanguined field,
not in chains and terrors, not in blood
and tears, and gloom, but in the leap
ing, vivifying, exhilarating impulses
of better birth of the soul. Reader,
are you doing your part in this
work?

CREAM IN COLD WEATHER.-For
some reason not yet known, cream
SKINNED from milk in cold weather
does not come to butter, when churned,
so quickly as that from the same cow in
warm weather. Perhaps the pellicles
which form the little sacks of butter
in the cream, are thicker and tougher.
There is one method of obviating this
trouble in a great degree. Set the pan
of milk on the stove, or in some warm
place, as soon as strained, and let it
remain until quite warm-some say,
until bubble or two rises, or until a
scum of cream begins to form on the
surface.
The Bedford gazette. [volume] (Bedford, Pa.) 1805-current, 1867-02-22

BoYs-A WORD TO oPARENTs.-Keep
your boy boy while he is boy; a
manly boy; a we'll behaved polite boy;
a courageous, self-reliant; no milk-sop
boy tied to his mothers skirts, but still
a boy, not weakling fop, precious
snob, a conceited monkey, aping the
airs and acquiring the habits of grown
up dandies and fast characters. Don't
make self-indulgent small gentleman
of him. Teach him to wait upon and
take care of himself, and to respect his
interiors and treat them courteously
and kindly. pray save him from the
absurdity of a cane and kid gloves, and
garments that are suitable for down.
right heartyplay. 1t may bepretty and
aristocratic and a sign of your opulence
to dress him in the height of fashion
but in 80 doing you run the risk of
spelling him for any robust and useful
living.

Coranda, will you take my hand instead

Never was a finer wedding seen at
Prague, and never was there happier
household. Coranda and the beautiful
Helen were model. The husband and
wife were never heard to complain of
each other; they loved with drawn
swords, and thanks to their ingenious
bargain, they kept for long years both
their love and their noses.

RADICAL LOVE FOR SOLDIERS.

Private Miles O'Reiley, General Hal
pine of New York, writing to his paper
from Washington City, says:
The Senate, in its eagerness toslaugh-
ter Mr.. Johnson's proteges, is makinga
mighty bad record for itself with re-
gard to "Our Boys who Wore the
Blue" 1t has rejected scores of noble
and deserving soldiers for no other rea-
son than that their names had been
sent in for various places by the Presi-
dent-as if, because Mr. Johnson may
be wrong in some points, his sins were
possessed of so foul a contagion as to
blast and sully the brightest record of
men who did gallant service during
the war. Take the case of young Ma
jor Howe, formerly of the ''Bloody
Sixth Massachusetts," and for years
confidential and trusted staff officer of
Maj-Gen. Sedgwick yet even he, when
sent in for Collector of the Eighth Mas
sachusetts District, is rejected! So also
with Gen. Pratt, of Brooklyn, who trav-
els round at this writing with mimic
ball somewhere hidden in his neck, and
whose record cannot be surpassed. So
likewise with Gen. Eagan; and so on
with nearly two score of faithful and
patriotic appointees, distinguished
graduates of the army, who have been
kicked by the Senate offtheladder upon
which Mr.. johnson stroveto place their
feet. A full record ofthese rejections is
now being prepared by Mr.. Hanscombe,
of the Repu6licaa--the personal and
army history of each officer being given
after his name and when this shall
come to be published and used oratori-
cally as a campaign document, it GER
tainly will do the reverse Of good to
the Radicals as represented in the
Senate-the reverse of injury to the
President.

ETERNITY.-"E Eternity has no gray
hairs!" The flowers fade, the heart
withers, man grows old and dies; the
world lies down in the sepulchre of a
ges, but time writes no wrinkles on the
brow of eternity. Eternity! Stupen-
dous thought! The ever present, un-
born, undecaying, but undying-the
endless chain, comprising the destinies
of the universe. Earth has its beau
ties, but time shrouds them for the
grave; its honors, they are but as the
gilded sepulchres, its possessions, they
are but types of changing fortune; its
pleasures, they are but bursting bub-
bles. Not so in the untried bourne.
In the dwelling of the Almighty, can
come no footsteps of decay. Its days
will know no darkening-eternal splen-
dors forbid the approach of night. Its
foundations will never fail: they are
fresh from the eternal throne. Its glo-
ry will never wane, for there is the ev-
er present God. Its harmonies will
never cease, exhaustless love supplies
the song.

A cLEARcaseo of "domestic intellect

A ACLEARcase of domestic infelicity"
was witnessed by a friend few days
ago in passenger car in which he was
travelling. The wife and two children
occupied one seat, while the husband
sat directly opposite, across the passage
way. Little Johnny" was very OBJ
servant and talkative, and made many
remarks in very loud tone of voice.
The father finally grew impatient, and
requested Johnny to "make less noise;"
whereupon the partner of his 'Jaws"
turned upon him the conqueringg glance
of her flashing eye, and exclaimed:
"NOw, you just shut your mouth
you're played out" The meek hus-
band subsidized and the passengers tit
t6red.

"YANKEEs. I've have received the

"YANKEEs."-W have received the
following:
"The question has often been asked
me: "What is the origin of the word
Yankee" Please tell an oldsubscriber.
j. III. M.
There has been a good deal of dispute
about this. 1t is certain that the term
was used first by the native Indians,
and applied exclusively to the white
colonists of New England. From the
beginning the Indians used it to desig-
nate the white men that would lie to
them, and cheat them, as distinguished
from other white men, who were friend
ly and truthful towards them. The
fancy has been entertained that it was
corruption of" York men," but this
is answered by the ascertained fact that
the Indians used the term before what
is now New York ever fell into Eng
lish hands.-The most rational answer
is that Yankee is the Indian corruption
of Anglaise, the French for English.
The French by way of explaining to
the Indians why some white men were
such rogues and liars, and cheated the
poor Indians so, told them these were
"Angldise" or English" AS this was
the common character of the Puritans,
the Indians took to calling them Ang-
ldise, corrupted to Yankees, }" meaning
"lying, cheating, stealing, meddling
white men," The name has been con-
tinued, and the race, unfortunately,
though now, in rapid process of extinc-
ton, is still very troublesome Y.

WHAT THE ARMY THINKS OF I'M
PEACHMENT.-Gen. Halpine, Private
Miles O'Reily, writes from Washing
ton to his paper as follows, and we
commend what he says to the especial
attention of the military editor of the

Sheridan, Sherman and Thomas have
been unusually dem onstrative of late
in paying respect to the President; and

water on both shoulders, | have pretty
absolute certainty that the three 9th

HANS BREITMAN ON A TRAIN.

"Hans Breitman" issupposed to have
been one oftheinvited and well-treated
guests on the Pacific Railroad excur-
sion-and his experience is thus "nara-

dey'd growed so fat in Kansas dat dey
couldn't speak word.

A SERIOUS QUESTION. the close
ofa lecture on physiology before an
evening school not long since, the lec-
turer remarked that any one was atlib-
erty to ask questions upon the subject,
and he would answer them as far as he
was able. A young lady with much
apparent sincerity, remarked that she
had question to ask, though she was
not certain that it was proper ques-
tion-she would, however, venture to
ask it. 1t was as follows:
"If one hen lays an egg, and another
sits on it and matches out a chicken,
which hen is mother of the chicken?"
The lecturer said:
''I will answer you in the Yankee
style by asking you question: If a
little pretty, white, genteel, native pull.
let sits on an egg of Oriental extraction,
and matches great homely, splinter,
shanked, slab sided, awkward gated
Shanghai, would you, if you were
pullet, own the great homely mon
ster ?''
''No, wouldn't" said the lady.
Every WE'LL" said the lecturer, "that
settles the question, for it is a principle
in physiology that hens think and act
alike in all essential particulars"

tate, his lease having expired. Subse-
quently he came to New York, and at

oined the Fenian Brotherhood, and
went back to Ireland on special mis-
sion; but while there he was arrested
for treason, and lodged in Mountjoy
Prison, Dublin, where he wasincarcer-
ated six months. He came back to
