THE AMERICAN GIRL.--It is the belief of GER
tain wel-meaning men who were not born in
Constantinople, that if the American girl were
called on to meet proportion of her expenses
by her own labor, she would publicly be q
greater blessing, and personally healthier, wiser
and happier. 1t is even believed that her out
lay, instead of increasing, would diminish.
Practiced in the mystery of keeping accounts,
aware by the experience of the difficulty of earn
ing money she would become clever enough to
save it, With something to do, she would put
less of her mind, time and purse into the pur-
suit of pleasure. Mated at last with poor man
$50 many are incorrgibly vicious in that way ,
she would share his burden rather than crush
him with it. If all women now were thus we
should have no cause to cry, as we are some
times tempted to do g Oh, for the slow but
cheap girl of thirty years ago = - Dramatic
Chronicle.

THEN AND Now-The Nevada Transcript offers
the following reminder to the Democracy All
well do remember, and can give the names,
too, how certain Democratic organs cursed the
Administration of Lincoln, because in the early
part Of the war, when Grant was beginning TO
make his mark in Kentucky, he WAS not pro-
noted faster 1t was because Grant was DEM
ocrat, they said. - Oh yes John Charles Ere
mont is the pet. General Grant can get no
chance" 90 Put that sterling old Democrat in
his proper place and something would come o!
it"-so they said, and SO it proved. Well, Grant
crushed the rebellion, and now those same
laudators are down on him and calling him mur.
derer, fool, and several other bad names Now
wouldn't it seem that the cause of their interest
in Grant at first an impression that his De-
mocracy was of that reasonable kind they had
themselves, and they expected him to sacrifice
our cause they would have done, while his
failure to be n traitor has induced the vitupera-
tion that has of late been heaped upon him from
the source of ancient praise?

THE DEVILS FALL.-The devil had fall lately


in Buffalo, of which the Commercial gives the
following description :-'' The little boy Jake,
who does the tprinter's) devils work for the
Commercial establishment, met with severe ac-
cident on Saturday afternoon, in attempt to
go from the top to the bottom of the first flight
of stairs, in this building, without touching his
head. The feat all the more difficult from
the fact that his feet slipped at the top STEP and
he didn't get a fair start. He also carried a
wooden pail in one hand. At first the pail
turned Jake, then Jake turned pale The bucket
tit Jake in the side, then Jake turned up his
toes-and almost kicked the bucket. His head
was little turned by the feat. 1t wasn't level
until he struck the pavement. That leveed him.
Some persons who passing, stopped and
raised the devil. He was carried into the Office.
Doctor was called, examined patient, and found
several injuries face and head. Internal
injuries couldn't be seen. 1t is hoped he
hasn't got any. We feel sorry for Jake. He is
good little devil. He was at the devils work
again, yesterday, lively as usual, and tickled to
know that he still lives

NUMBER "a.
Grant Analysed.

A. D. Richardson, in his forthcoming life OF
Grant, says:
Some still see in him only the darling of for
interchangeable mediocrity which has blundered
into success think such are misled by two OF
his peculiar qualities
l. His unimaginatiyeness. When he has
nothing to say, he says nothing. In private he
fills no interstices of conversation by remarks
upon the weather, or inquiries after the babies OF
his visitor. In public he make no speeches
simply of form or compimene, and since the
world cared to hear his opinions on affairs, his
official position has never allowed him to speak
freely. But in public or private when he has
anything to utter by tongue or pen he says 1t
with extreme rapdity and clearness, in terse,
marrowy, idiomatc English. Even then he
clothes his thoughts in no flowers OF rhetoric,
but presents them in the plainest, homellest
words. Napoleons memorable sayings are all
! of this order: 81 From these SUBMITS forty cen

subordinately the duty which lies right before

lie is utterly genuine ard guilcless. He still
preserves in his high estate the sweetness and
simplicity of his country boyhood. r Altogether

posing the surrender of the army Of Northern
