HARM DONE.
Private advices from our most
strenuous friends Of the North, ro-
quest that we should protest
against the imprudent expressions
that have escaped soma Southern
speakers, since the adjournment Of
the National Democratic Conven-
ton. hls represented 10 Us that
greatinjury is accruing to the cause
from such imprudence. Wethere.
fore shall mako no apologies for
asking the attention of public
speakers to the fact. We arc all
dcsirous of pushing on the good
work Of success, aud no ono would
voluntarily impede its course who
was aware Of tho fact. Whilst no
man in the South should be, and
no true man is, ashamed ofour lost
cause; and whilst, when we speak
like true men, it is questionable
whether at this time anything is
to be gained by too much refer
eucc to things that jar on peoples
nerves. What We want Just now
is to win. Let us keep our powder
for that purpose. loo much is at
stake to waste it now in felr de
joie. Let us have our pyrotechnics
next March. In tho meantime,
friends, let US, without abating ono
sentiment that is true, be cool and
steady, and give the enemy no ad-
vantage. We have a strong foe 10
encounter. We cant afford TO give
him all the advantage Of position.
Let US guard our TANKS, make Sc
cure our lines, and when the time
comes, next November, let US down
on him like an avalanche, and
double him up like a grub-worm,
and then scatter him on the winds.
We have the power. Do not let
US unnecessarily fritter it away in
unavailing skirmishing and heed
less, thoughtless, scattered assaults.
Let US work, and speak, to win.
Commenting on the foregoing,
the Ohio State Journal says:
Treason will out.
1t will be seen by an editorial
which we take from the Charleston
Mercury, that the Southern De-
mocracy have been admonished to
conceal their real opinions, in 9th
er words, to cease spouting treason
until alter the November election.
"Imprndent expressions" should be
judiciously avoided, for "what We
want just now is 10 win" This is
rank, if not altogether manly
The Mercury, speaking in behalf
and at the instance of Northern
Democrats, request SoOtherns speak
ers 10 practice deception and mis-
lead the Northern public concern
iEg their real views. This is all
very wise and well, if il were pos
sible to Withdraw what has been
already said. But the game of
deception is up. The fact is out
that treason is as rampant through
out the South as at any time dur
ing the war. Cobb, ,Toombs, ,Semmes,
Vance, Hampton and Hill have
been already heard from.

Assassination as a Political
Art.

In view of what has occurred in
this Government, in consequence
of the circumstance that the Vico.
President had shown symptoms oi
disaffection toward tho party that
elected him, II is not pleasant to
contemplate the fact that the Dem
ocratic candidate for Vice .Presi,
dent was nominated by rebol Off
GERS, on hls own separate platform
of overthrowing the reconstructed
State Governments by the bayonet,
which is everywhere in the South
caught up as the key note and
grand issue of the campaign.
From the time OF Johnson's cleo
tion, he began to declare to those
about him his dislike OF the Repub.
lican party, and the necessity of
restoring the old Democratic par
ty. This rapidly circulated among
those who looked to prof. by it,
and thus his disaffection became
known throughout the South, and
this knowledge brought the assas-
sination of Lincoln. AT the time
of the inauguration of Lincoln and
johnson, the Blair family were
hostile to Lincoln on account of the
virtual dismissal of Montgomery
Blair from his Cabinet. After
Johnson's shameful exhibition at
the Inauguration, when the con.
tempt Of all parties was showercd
upon him, the Blairs took him
homo to their residence al Silver
Springs, where he remained till
the death ofLincoin.
The malice toward Lincoln and
the Republican party, which led
them to pay this particular court
to Johnson even in his disgrace,
because they knew that ne sympa-
thized with them in this feeling,
seemed in its results like prophet.
ic foresight. Is there not some.
thing striking in the circumstance
that Immediately following this ex-
pcrience, one OF this family, which
was 30 closely related to that
event, should como out as candi-
date for the nomination of Vice.
President, with a manifesto of his
own declaring what he would do if
President elect, and how he would
dispense ths reconstructed State
governments, implying that mono
but the votes Of the whites, under
their own regulations, should be
counted in the election.
And when we see that this man
ifesto of the Vice President is
seized upon by the entire opposi-
tion in the South as the real plat
form of the campaign, and when
we see their public speakers de.
claring, as Mr.. Winchester did in
his speech at the ratification meet.
ing at Louisville, that "the Demo
cratic party will never permit the
election of q President upon the
electoral votes of carpetbaggers
and negroes" can wo regard, in
view of what has happened, the
life Of Mr.. Seymour as safe, in case
he should be electcdP And car
we avoid the notion. which these
circumstances so strongly suggest
that in these rebel declarations off
new war, and in their making the
Blair letter their platform, there
is cold calculation on the chances
of the effect Of tho political excite
ment on Mr.. Seymour's hereditary
tendency, if not on the risks tC
which he will be exposed, in cas'
of an election, Frank Blairs bic

In 1862, when Seymour was
elected Governor of New York,
"Stonewall" Jackson called upon
his soldiers to cheer over the good
news. Wade Hampton calls upon
his disDanded legions in 1868 To
cheer the news of Seymour's nom
ination for the Presidency.

A Dilemma

a young parson OF the Universalist faith,
many years since, when the Simon pure
Universalism was preached, started west
ward to attend "a convention of his brethren
in the faith. He took the precaution to
carry vial of Cayenne in his pocket, to
sprinkle his food with as a preventive of fe-
yer and ague. The convention met and
at dinner a tall hoosier observed the parson
as he seasoned his meat. and addressed
hun thus
Stranger, I'll thank you for leetle of
that ere red salt, for IN kind o curious to
try it.
Certainly, returned the parson; ''but
you will find 1t very powerful; be careful
how you use it.
The Hoosier took the proffered vial, and
feeling himself proof against any quantity
of raw whiskey. thought he could stand the
red salt with impunity. and accordingly
sprinkled junk OF beef rather bountifully
with it, and forthwith introduced it into his
capacious mouth.
1t soon began to take hold He shut his
eyes, and his eatures began to writhe, de-
noting a very inharmonious condition physi-
ally. Finally he could stand it no longer.
He opened his mouth and screamed fire -
Take a drink of cold water from the
jug, said the parson
Will that put it out? p asked the mar
tyr suiting the action to the word. In
short time the unfortunate man began to
recover, and. turning to the parson, his
eyes yet swimming in water, exclaimed:
stranger, you call yourself 'Varsallst,
/ believe?''

THE OLD FOLKS, ROOM.

Tn. old man sat by the chimney side,
Hi, face was wrinkled and wan;
And he leaned both hands on his stout oak cane
As if all his work was done.
His cost was of good old fashioned grey,
The pockets were deep and wide,
Where his specs and his steel tobacco box
Lie snugly side by side.
The old man liked TO STIR the FIRE,
So near him the tOngs were kept;
Sometimes he unused as he gazed a the Goals,
Sometimes be sat and slept.
What saw he in the embers there2
Ah. pictures of other years;
And now and then they wukened smiles
But as often started tears.
His good wife sat on the side.
In a hi, h backed flag seat chair;
see meath the pile of her IN Islin cap
The sheen Of her silvery hair.
There's happy look on her aged face,
As she busily knirs for him.
And Nellie takesu up tie stitches dropped,
For grandmOther's eyes are dim.
Their children come and read the news,
To pass the time each day;
How it stirs the blood in the old mans heart
To hear of the world away,
'T,s homely scene-I told you So,
But pleasant it is to view,
At least tn ought it so m, self.
And sketched it down for you.
Pc kind unto the old nv friend
They're worn with this worlds strife.
Though bravely once perchance they fought
The stern, fierce battle of life.
They taught our youthful feet to climb
Upward life's rugged steep;
Then let Us gently lead them down
To where the weary sleep.

black diamonds, which are frequently in
fine particles. These savings are valuable
to be used when the requirements of cook
lug or il particularly sharp airs do not de-
mand brisk fire. Even the ashes that es-
cape through the sitter, when made into a
mortar with water, are servIceable. They
may be used advantageously in preserving
the fire in CRATE, and it is surprising how
much of what might be otherwise condemn
ed as waste, can thus be made to yield avail
able heat.
Coal should be kept under cover, exposed
neither to the sun, the rain, or the frost.
lnsensible combustion and waste by the ac-
ton OF the elements rapidly diminish the
heat producing qualities of even the hard
est anthracite coal. By some this possible
waste is estimated as high as fifty per cent.
This may be an exaggerated estimate,
but that 1t is considerable the observation
and experience of twerty years variant US
IN confidently affirming. Even the fine dust
left in the coal bin is valuable Mixed in
to mortar, as we advise with the ashes, it
gives out an intense heat, greater than that
of lump coal because the more readiness
with which the oxygen of the atmosphere
can rmeate the mass; and here we may
give few words OF advice. Small sized
coal Is more economical than large coal, es
pecially for household purposes, if the crate
Is adapted to the size, for the reason Just
stated. To prove this let one take lump
oi anthracite large as a mans fist, All
alive, and crack it so as to expose he in,
terror, 1t will be found to be entirely black
inside aud undi>turbed by the heat
These practical suggestions and facts, un-
accompanied by scientific reasons are sub
mitted for the consideration of our readers.
We might have given the philosophy of
combustion as applied to anthracite coal.
but preferred to make few simple state
meuts, leaving our readers to trace tn : truths
back to their source. We are confident. how
ever that an observance OF these rules will
result i'll a valuable saving of coal.
