How to.susfaIa a Local paper

The following suggestiene upon this
subject, which we find 'going the
rounds" !" may be familiar TO our readers
but they are to the point, and VIII bear
frequent reception until they are more
generally appreciated and acted upon:
l. Lay aside your fears that the edi-
tor will get rich fasterfhan his neigh
bors. We have never heard Of man
making much more than q decent iV-
ing by the publication ofcountry news
paper, if ne had ever so gooda business.
2. Do not tell the editor TO send you
the paper without paying, and, when
you get to owing two or three dollars,
tell your friends that the paper will
burst up one Of these days. The way,
NG29er such 3 stale Of the case, to keep
a paper from bursting upH Is for each
subscriber to keep the editors books
free from charges against himself. This
thing of applying the credit system 10
the newspaper business may be Gken-
ed to farmer selling out his crop 4
bushel to man. The sum each would
owe would seem of little account, but
the aggregate might break the farmer.
3. fyou have afsther, mother, bEssa-
er, sister, or friend at distance, and
are able to do 80, subscribe, pay FOR and
send them a copy. .-.-.-I -Ilsdza
t. If you and your partner both take
the paper, don't stop yours because
your partner tskesit and you can read
read his. Why not on the same prin-
ciple, remain single and kiss your
partners wife when ne is not wanting
to do so, or use your partners tooth
brush when he has got through with Il?
). Because you know what happens
right around you it does not follow
thar all the country knows the same
thing. Therefore send to your country
paper the news of local events, barn
raisings, corn-huskings, Wood-chop-
pings, marriages, fires, deaths. aeci-
dents, accounts of wonderfully large
animals, very fine fruits or crops, and
mention of public meetings, reviYais.
&e. If you will do this your example
viii encourage others to do the same.
and you will soon get the benefits Of
your own good works. -...--.--..-
6. Do not expect too much Of the
editor when he Is compelled TO be his
own compositor, proofreader, etc
I. Do not expect the editor 10 make
special mention ofyour business every
few weeks for nothing.
s. If you wish to sustain your local
paper properly, to live in peace and
die happy remember what we have
told you in this article. zJsfa-ll

General Grant IS descended from
Scottish ancestors, who first settled in
Connecticut His gsnd-fsther, who
had fought in the Tevolutionary war,
removed from Connecticut to West
moreland county, in this State, snd
earned livelihood BY tilling the soil.
Towards the close Of the last century
he emigrated to the them Northwest
Territory, and became one Of the piO-
neer settlers Of Ohio. Jesse r. Grant,
the Generals father, was then boy.
When ne grew to manhood he married
Hannah Simpson, the daughter of an
other pioneer, and Ulysses S. Grant
vas the eldest of six children, having
been born on the 9th of April, 1922.
In 1899. at the age ofseTenteent he en-
tered West Point, and graduated in
1913. Then followed his services on
the frontier, and in the Mexican war,
in which he distinguished himself for
his coolness and bravery. In I84S he
was united in marriage to Miss Julia
T. Dent, daughter Of a merchant Of
st. LOUIS most excellent and accom-
plished lady, who has shared his for
tunes with true womanly pride and
fidelity, and who viii be happy to await
the hour when grateful people will
elivate her husband to the highest
civil position in their gift,- a. they'have
already bestowed upon hia the high

can soldier.
Schuyler Colfax, our candidate for
Vice President, is the prime and vigoE
of manhood. being now in his forty
sixth year, having heen born in tRe
city Of New York, March %, IS23.-
He received q good common school
education, and afterwards added to
his store of knowledge IN the Fpoor
boys college," the printing Office. He
removed to South Bend, Indiana, in
1886, and at an early age became fore
man and assistant editor, and finally
edSOr of the village paper, the Register,
IN which, we believe, he is still inter-
ested. Hisfrst appearance prominently
10 politics was as q delegate in ISIS to
the Whfg National ConEennon,@ of
, which he was elected onesof the Sec
retaries, as he Was also of that of 1852.
He was elected to the Thirty Fourth
Congress from the Tenth District of
Indiana, and has been reelected to
every subsequent Congress. he has
been Speaker of the House of Repre-
sentstiTes, since the organization Of the
Thirty-Eighth Congress, and has filed
that important post with such dignity
and impartislisy as to win the encomi-
iums Of every one, without distinction
Of party. Mr.. Colfax IS eninently a
Representative man IS an earnest, IN
flinching adFoeate Of Republican meas

party in progress. His whole life has
been consistently devoted to the great.

and enormous efforts directed against
him specially as a representative man,
not merely by his local opponents, but
by the whole forces of every kind
which the party opposed to his could
concentrate within his district. Such
a series of political successes shows not
only the power Of the public speaker,
and the discretion of the politician. but
shows also hearty and vigorous unity
I Of noble thoughts between the constit-
uency and the representative, and also
a magnetic personal attractiVeness
which holds fast forever any friend

! lar of the Republican Presidential cleo
I tors, members Of the Legislature, Con
gressmen, and whole body Of voters of
Indiana, united to press upon the new
President the appointment of Mr.. Col
fax to the Office of Postmaster General.
3Ir. Lincoln, however, had resolved to
make Hon. c. 3. Smith, Of Indiana,
Secretary sof the Interior, and could
give no other Cabinet place to that
State. But as long as he lived, he
loved and respected and trusted
Mr. Colfax; aud it IS on record tina;
''he rarely took any steps affecting the
interests Of the nation without making
his intentions known TO Mr.. Colfax, in
whose Judgment ne placed the utmost
confidence"
Continuing in Congress, Mr.. Colfaz
served with efficient and patriotic
fervor in his place, and in December
1867, was chosen, and has since remain
ed Speaker. In this extremely FespOn
si6le, important and laborious place
his official career has been openly Tisi
bls to all men, while only those among
