Ex-President James Buchanan died at
Wheatland, Pennsylvania, OF Monday,
aged seventy-one years, one month and
ten. days.
General Sehofeld took possession OF
the War Office on Monday. "Not
Guilty" johnson accompanied him and
General Grant subsequently, had an in-
teryiew with him.
By a vote Of 81 to II, the Senate
passed a resolution Of thanks to ex-
Secretary Stanton.
An irrelevant amendment, offered by
Henderson Of Missouri, rendering thanks
to the Chief Justice for his conduct
during the impeachment trial, was re-
jected by o vote Of 80 to ll-Ross, Hen
dersou and Fowler voting for the amend
ment.
The telegraph represents the follow
ing to DO General Grants formal ac-
ceptance Of the nomination. We i'm
agine that there Is some mistake about
it, but publish it as we find it:
wAsHrSoroS. May %.
General James r. Hawley, President oI
the National Union Republican Convention
In formally accepting the nomination Of the
National Union Republican Convention Of
May q, it seems proper that some statement
Of my views beyond the mere acceptance oi
the nomination should be expressed. The
proceedings Of the Convention were marked
with wisdom, moderation and patriotism, and
! believe expresses the sentiments oil
those who sustained the country through its
trials. I indorsc the resolutions, and IL elect.
cd to the Office OF President Of the United
States it will be my endeavor to administer
all the laws in good faith, with economy and
with a view to giving peace, quiet and pro-
lection everywhere. In times like the pres
emit it is impossible and improper to lay down
q policy to be adhered to, right or wrong,
through an administration Of four years.
New political issues not foreseen are con-
stantly arising, and the views Of the public
on old ones are constantly changing. Purely
administrative affairs should always be LEFT
to the Executive. The will Of the people !
have always respected and always shall.
Peace and universal prosperity-with their
sequence, an economy Of Administrations
will tighten the burdens Of taxation, while it
constantly reduces the national debt. Let
US, therefore, have peace.
With great respect.
Your obedient servant,
U. S. GRANT.

IN accepting the nomination for At
torney-General by the Republican State
Convention ofIowa, Major Henry 0'Con-
nor said
feel myself responsible for having done
something, and have always credited myself
with great honor for having presented James
W. Grimes for that position. He has filled
the position Of Senator Of this State with
honor until these doubts have reached Us.
We want no doubts. l speak plain. I say
that though he were ten times more honored,
though he were a thousand times greater,
and Il, instead Of being my friend, he were
my father or brother, or what is still nearer,
my son-if he started through and stepped
back, and failed to discharge his plain, mani.
fest duty-I say, il he failed, when the evil
dence is there, sufficient for any man who
will let his soul speak and let his conscience
guide him-with readiness, though with sor.
row, I would be the first in every doorstep,
in every school.house, to d~enounee him as
unfit to represent Iowa, and untrue to
education and principles. [Applausc.]
Grimes is dead

disreputable assaults on loyal men at

AN AsroN1sHED NEGRO WoNAN.-During
Chistmas week the variety stores were selling
some queer-looking and curiously prepared
papers called skyrockets., An old descen.
dant," attracted by the gaudy parti-colored
sticks, purchased one, thinking it was an or
nament for the head. Applying it to this
use, she has persistently worn it amid her sa-
BILE kinks as an attache to her waterfall, nev.
er suspecting its dangerous tendency to ex-
plosion. Last night, being solemn occasion
in the old woman's life, the anniversary OF
her birth, she dressed herself with exceeding
care, and invited her neighbors..in to partiei-
pate in the celebration. Prominent among the
tresses of the head dress was the skyrocket.
Some mischievous urchin saw and OWNED its
explosive tendencies. When the old woman's
attention was deeply engaged, he applied a
match toit. The effect was electrical. The
"rocket" went of, ard the old woman fell
screaming to the floor. She kicked and yell
ed Justify. She thought the day ofJudgment
had come-the idea Of fiery serpents fastened
on her mind. Terror stricken, the alarmed
darkeys gave way before the distracted wo-
man, and the air was vocal with distracted
screeches The police were notitied-they
crowded around-the facts were related, and
the wisest suggested an appeal to the fire de-
partment for solution of the mystery; but
before they got there The old woman's terror
7abated and her apprehensions quieted.-N.

The poor refugee laid her aching head upon

but no blessed dews of peace settled upon her.
She tossed restlessly- to and fro,' and wave
after wave of sorrow rose and swelled high

"Why, what's to pay? Oh! see you've
got your eye on that little Shakeress yonder.
Isn't she the most beautiful creature you ever
saw ?"
!" Hush hush, Ben," was the quick, almost
petulant answer, but Lysle Derwent still kept
his gaze riveted on Bessie Percival. Yes,
there was no denying Ben Blakes statement
That was beautiful face shaded by the close
muslin cap, withea brow Of transparent fair
ness, and cheek where the bloom rose and
deepened and faded with every changing emo
tion; the, red, ripe lips were delicately CHS
elled; the teeth revealed, as they parted,
were white and regular, and the half-yeied
eyes were large, soft, and shy as those of a
young fawn, but full of dreams.
g" LysIe, Lysle, interrupted Ben, in another
whisper, "I'm fast falling in love. Don't
wait for me when the service is over. I'm
going to Join the Shakers, and make the ac-
9uaintance of this girl by stratagem."
"Pshaw n said Derwent, with gesture of
impatience, but he did not remove his eyes
from the singer. At length the song ceased,
aud she glanced bashfully around; Derwent
moved slightly, and their eyes met. Itwas
only for an instant; with Shaker decorum she
turned away, and with vague feeling'of
pleasure Lysle Derwent marked the blush
which swept across her fair face. She ddnot
sing again that day, but sat prim and demure
with row of sisters; and yet thrice, ere the.
meeting broke up, as she ventured to steal
glance at the stranger, she caught his admir-.
ing look, and as he passed out of the church,
she saw him gaze at her long and earnestly.
This was an era in Bessie Percival's quiet life.
The next Sabbath morn, as she took her sta
ton among the singers, she noticed that the
stranger had come again. She had not cx-
pected this, and the young heart under her
snowy kerchief futtered with a novel pleasure.
