MEMORY OF THE AD.-It is an ex-
quisite and beautiful thing in our naf
ture, that when the heart is touched and
softened by some tranquil happiness o
afectionate feeling, the memory of the
dead comes over it most powerful and
irresistibly. 1t would seem almost as
our better thoughts and sympathies
were charms, in virtue of which the
soul is enabled to hold some vague and
mysterious intercourse with the spirits
of those whom we loved in life. Alas
how often and long may these patient
angels hover around us, watching for
the spell which is soon forgotten.

'WAR, 'WAr,' sWAE, ALL THE TINE
The supporters of Grant and Colfax are in
dignant at the Protest of the Democratic
memb crs of the House, aud also with Gov.
Seymour, because nothing is said in these
two papers of the rebellion. Gentlemen,
the rebellion is over 1t ended in April,
1865. Your candidate for President gave
Lee and his army Il cir parole at that time,
aud declar ed they would not be arrested or
tried as long ~ they obeyed that parole.
He even went so far (see his testimony be-
fore the House Judiciary Committee last
summer) as to declare that there was no
reason why rebel general should not re-
ceive amnesty as well as q rebel soldier.
| The war having ended then by the accom-
| plishment of all It's ayowed objects, includ
| ing the abolition of the rehe. debt and sla-
very, to what end should any Democrat re-
vive its terrible history3 Unless malice
and revenge are pleasurable emotions, and
unless the Jscobin party Is party of retail
/ alton and vengeance, there is no good rea-
son for constant reminder of the war
through which we have passed. It is Peace
and good viii among the people, and pros
| perity and confidence, that is desired, and
not constant declarations of the past wick
edness and injuries of beaten and sub
nissive people. Even worldly wisdom de-
niands this, while the highest goodness and
divine wisdom declares-'If ye forgive not
men their trcspasses, neither will your
Heavenly Father forgive you your tres
passes. Banner of Liberty.

Grant, Jackson and Clay.

Ne ----.kN II
1t is certainly not very respectful TO TIE
memory of Jackson and Clay to associate
their names and memories with the name Of
Grant, but by way of contrast, the appa-
rent disrespect win, no doubt, be excused.
In his letter accepting the Radical nOmina-
ton for President, Grant says:
81 shall have no policy of my own to in
terfere against the people.
L. S. GRANT
| Now, If you want to see the great differ
ence between this man and the immortal

Henry Clay was not, like jackson, war
Iior, but he was, ike jackson, great states

vote for Grant if he were alive to-day: Il
so, undeceive yourself by reading the fol
lowing:

QUEsR THINGs ABOUT BERs.-The poppy
bee makes her nest in the ground, hurrow-
ing down about three inches. AT the bot-
tom she makes a large round hole, and lines
it splendidly with the scarlet leaves of the
wild poppy. She cuts and fiiS the pretty
tapestry till it is thick, and soft, and warm,
then partly fills the cell with honey, lays an
egg, folds down the red blankets, and closes
up the hole, SO it cannot be distinguished;
and there, in its rosy cradle, with food to
eat and a safe nook to rest in, she leaves her
baby bee to take care of itself The leaf-
cutting bee makes hsr cell OF green leaves
shaping them like thimbles. These little
jars she half fills with a rose-colored paste of
honey and pollen from thistle, lays her eggs,
and covers the pots with round leaf-lids that
fit exactly. The masou-bee makes its nest
of mud or mortar Il looks like bit of
dirt sticking to-a wall, but has little cells
within. The mother bee does all the work,
sticking little grains of sand and earth to-
gether with her own glue. The carpenter
bee borcs holes in posts, and makes her
! cells of sawdust and glue. The canling-
bees live in holes, among stones and roots,
making nests of moss, lined with wax, to
keep the wet out, with long gallery by
which to enter. They find bit of moss,
and several bees place themselves in a row,
with their backs toward the nest; then the
foremost lays hold of the moss and pulls II
up with her jaws, drives il with her fore
feet under her body as far toward the next
as possible. The second does the same
and in this way tiny heaps of prepared moss
are got to the nest by the file Of four or five,
and others weave it into shape. -MERRY's

Gnro- for lHydrophobia.J

The mad dog season has come again.
Attention is particularly called to the sub
ject by the sad results of this terrible disease
which have occurred lately, and, as usual
on such occasions, remedies for the bite of
q mad dog numerous. In the hope that
some of them may be of real value, we give
our readers the benefit of such information
as VIC possess. II is said that the elder Dr.
Welch, of Norfolk in this State, obtained
from an Indian certain cure for hydropho-
bis under a solemn pledge of secrecy. Liv-
ing witnesses of credibility testify to the fact
with success. He never divulged to the
public his secret, but at his death confided it
to his sons, physicians, who now use the
remedy successfully, but viii not confide il
TO others fact, which if true, earns for
them the seVerest condemnation. The
names and address of the NJ. ID. s in posses
sion of this valuable secret are James Welch
Winsted; William ". Welch and John
weleh, Norfolk; and Benjamin welch, Sal
isbury. ..-.. .s
\ sure cure for the bite of mad dog
comes in this shape: \ Saxon forester,
named Gas,ill, aged so, made public in the
Leipzig Journal the means which he had
used for ffty years, and Wherewith he sf-
firJhs hr had rescued many human beings
and cattle from hydrophohia- II is this -

Which meanA tue latter is neutralized.
Another receipt Is Nix one pound %
Common salt ip. quart of wafer, then haih'
with and squeeze the wound with the SAM
oas hour, then bind little more salt on the
wound Tor II hours. The author Of thi
receipt was bitten six times by mad dogs

ture, and offers to suffer himself to Ike bittel
