STARRING AT SILVER Clrf.-aoout III
o'clock last evening Mr.. John~ Geiger, a
carpenter at Silver City was on his way
TO his residence, just back of Harris
ASSAY office, when just MS he was passing
between the Office and the adobe house
pext TO il, he noticed q strange looking
man standing in a doorway, apparently
irving to escape observation. lie
asked him what he was doing there,
when the fellow replied, " None of your
dam business" and struck At him with
a bowie-kuife. He warded OF the blow
with his right arm,. receiving n severe
flesh wound between the wrist and ell
how. The would-be assassin immedi-
ately took to his heels and has not been
heard from siEce.
SplrxruLLY FAsrIDIous. Certain
uarrow-miuded individuals have raised
such a silly fuss about the grade of that
little scrap Of sidewalk in front OF the
PRESBYTERIAN Church, on South G street,
Virginia, that the Board OF Alderman
last evening ordered the grade oil II al
tered 4 few inches in order to contorn
| TO their Jealous desires. The grade, as
At present, is IN Improvement, and no
disinterested person would perceive any
thing Objectionable about it. A move
mcnt to establish a regular grade do
ing away with the awkward steps anu
stumbling places in the sidewalk, be.
tween that point and Taylor street,
would be something sensible.

GENERAL GRANT.

When the whole country was filled
with doubt of General Grants military
competency, and when President Lin
coin and the whole Cabinet and the most
prominent military men i'll the country
were denouncing the plan by which he
was seeking the capture OF Vicksburg.
and were kindly giving him chance to
resign, he said, i'll private letter to his
father-which was the only notice lie
ever took of the matter" Were it not
for the very natural desire OF proving
myself equal to nything expected O
me, and the evidence my remova
would afford that I was not though
equal to it, I would gladly accept a les
responsible position. But he did no
resign--he was not removed, and tho
only reply he made to ali this censur'
and doubt was to announce iii due time
by telegraph, that Pemberton had sur
and Vicksburg was taken
Nothing more was heard Of his incom
potency until his nomination for the
Presidency. He evidently intends now
to "prove himself equal to anything
expected of him and he will.

LORD BRoUGEAM. The year before
his death, Lord Brougham's menta
faculties were gradually decaying More
than once he had to be restrained by
gentle violence from leaving his 'housf
to keep some imaginary engagement
or make speech in some imaginary
debate. He had lost distinction of tim.
andplace. Occasionally thoseby whom
he was surrounded indulged him in hi
singular fancies. For instance, jus
before his final departure from Londo,
for the Continent, he got into his car
riage, and believing himself in Pari
ordered his coachman to drive to the
mansion of NJ Theirs. Away started
the carriage the noble Lord was driv-
en- round the park for an hour Oh
two, and then safely deposited him ii
his own house, having forgotten his OWL
orders just as completely as a short
time previously he had forgotten he
was in London, and not in Paris,
Brougham did not die rich. His
personality was sworn under two thous7

EDUCATORS OF THE PEOPLE.

49, - = - - - -
1t is mistake that some persons re-
peat with decisiveness of tone as
slough. beyond their decision, there was
no appeal, that education mental and
moral, depends wholly upon theschools
and the pulpit. We cherish, with the
ardor OF our whole being, our common
school system and its blessings for the
million; we would guard it and defend
it as we sought to guard and defend our
country in the hour of its peril; we ven
crate the pulpit rs we believe in the
apostolic tradition of divine institu-
ton by which the great law of love to
man should be proclaimed, and that
these two are educators of the people,
in very remarkable sense; but, we do
not believe that upon these depend the
instruction of the masses, or the proper
appreciation OF law, OF government, If
mental and moral growth.
Why, every legislator is schoolmas
ter, some of them, it is true, very poor
representatives of the profession; every
law-maker is priest; the law itself is q
public teacher Government acts,
though silently, upon all for good or
evil, from infancy to age, from high to
low.
Look at this fact outside of the schools
or the pulpit. When great views and
noble principles characterize our public
men, when justice is faithfully meted
out, when the servants of the people, as
their representatives, stand up for the
true, the honest and the peoples good,
then are they in the legislature, in the
courts of law, in the councils of the ma
ton, co-workers with the schools and
the pulpits of our land, educators of in
tellect and moral sense.
We see, then, the Importance of send
ing intelligent men to the Legislatures,
of placing MEN in offices of trust; in ele
waiting the tried and true to positions of
influence, for, according to public law,
will be public order; and, as is the rep
resented sense, SO will be the education
of the constituency; though perhaps at
the time by an unconscious influence.
Who will question the fact? Illiberal
unjust, tyrannical OF timid
and time-serving political action never
fails to exert most unwholesome and
influence upon the public
character. 1t is most apparent that
thereby temptations are held ont to
the vilest ambition. Such educators Of
the people rebuke true public spirit,
high honor and moral greatness, and
choke the aspirations of the public heart
for moral grandeur, and soon, by such
legislators and such legislation, dignity,
success and responsibility come to be
associated in mems minds with all that
is llGLle anu Hedn
Let these schoolmasters, these priests,
these directors of the public veal, be
true to the right, true to the government
and true to national greatness, and in
the results an educated and free people
will bless them, and the legacy of our
blood bought, will be forever
perpetuated Could we gain the ear OF
every public teacher, the legislator and
senator, the judge ON the bench, the
counsel at the bar-up to the president
and his cabinet-we would cry, a cry
never to be lorgotten
''T To thine own self be true,
And it must follow, as the night the day,
Thou canst not then be false to any man."
