y ne editor 81 the great organ

- The editor of the great organ
of Democratic Catholics, the New
York Freemaa's Journal, does not
enter into the scheme of Voorhees,,
and other Democratic leaders, to
make Mr.. Chase the nominee Of
their party. In the last issue of his
paper he talks as follows of the
scheme - Cincinnati Chronicle.
But as a Democratic nominee,
the idea does not rise to the dignity
of being ridiculous, 1t is enter
tanned only by those that have their
heads added by the plan of gold
for the bondholders, and paper
money for the tax payers.
Mr.. Chase, as Chief Justice, in
place of respecting the purity of
the Judicial ermine, neglected his
weighty duties to canvass the negro
element Of the South in political
tour.
Mr.. Chase, as Chief Justice, per-
mitted the infamous Dan. Sickles,
in the Carolinas, to set at defiance
the United States Courts, by militia
ry edict, a., aria
Mr.. Chase, as Secretary of the
Treasury, was the man who devised
the fraudulent plan of paying gold
debts with greenbacks, not worth
forty cents on the gold dollar.
And now he is paying these usurI-
Gus bondholders gold, principal as
well as interest, for the bonds they
bought at less than forty cents on
the gold dollar! 4rrlo0
Mr.. Chase certainly ought to run
for President-but on his own hook,
as a consistent Black Republican.
The Democraticparty, this time, are
in earnest in meaning to have a
inside their party They,
have been beaten often enough by
trying to get the vast Democratic
party, at the whistle of the manag-
ers, to run for somebody because be

Of last week, says:
"The military renown Of General
Grant will only be known in histo
ry as that Of q man who enabled
TO overpower his own brave coun-
trymen by sacrificing three Of his
own men for every one Of his op.

AT the commencement of the war
it was yauntingly stated by the
Southern chivaIry, and acquiesced
in by their Northern democratic
sympathizersi that one Southerner
could whip just ten yankees. So if
Grant lost only three instead of ten
men, to one rebel, as they said he
would, heis still q great general and

- An inspection of the remains
of Stephen A. Douglas was made
on Tuesday of last week, preparato-
ry to their removal to the tomb
erected to his memory. Upon re-
moving the lid covering the glass,
the face of the illustrious Senator
was found to be in a remarkable
state of preservation, almost as
natural as when buried seven years
ago. The complexion is very fair,
the contour Of the head and face
apparently unchanged, and the ex-
preston quite natural and plainly
recognizable. The hair looks as
black and glossy as ever, and the
raiment as new and tidy as when
first put on, not presenting the least
evidence ofmildew or discolofation.

ion as to the best method of wash
Ing rag carpets through the ohi'
Farmer2 1st
: Last week I went TO a Sewing So
ciety, and nearly all the ladies, hav
ing just finished house cleaning
we're talking over their diferent
modes Of management, and wher
they came to the rag carpet ques.
ton, / became an intent listener,
thinking, Now I shall surely learn
the best way. But great was my
confusion on discovering that near
ly all had different ways Of doing
the same thing, and that each lady
was sure her way was the best.
Mrs. A. said she always ripped
her carpets and washed them
breadth by breadth, in a tub, rims
ing them well, and hanging them up
to dry. r b
'But it's such a trouble to rip
and sew them every time" said
one. IN.
Mrs. A, said she didn't sew them
SO closely as some people do
there was no need of it. Indeed,
sometimes she stretched the
breadths on the floor, tapping
them a very little, and tackled
them along with few nails. This
would save sewing altogether. /
thOught.I would certainly try that
way.
Mrs. B. said she took up her car
pets, shook them well, laid them
on the grass, teok a tub of hot suds
and a broom, and scrubbed them
hard; then poured pals Of water
over them. Or better, if there was
a shower coming up, left them to
rinse by themselves. Then she
dragged them to another place
and left them to dry; or, per-
laps, if she was in a hurry, hung
them on the fence or line. And
now l concluded | would try this
way. s .i.
Mrs. c, said her way was to
shake the carpet well, bring 1t in
and tack it down where it belonged;
then take a cloth and very hot water
mot much soap except for the
grease spots-and wash it on the
floor. Wash it thoroughly, wipe it
dry, and open all the doors and
windows. 1t will soon dry, and i'll
you must go thro' the room, spread
down newspapers to step on. She
thought Mrs BIS way was apt to
make the carpet look streuky. So
l thought, Give me Mrs. C.'y way
of all others
But Mrs D. said she did not
like any Of these methods. She
took her carpets out of doors, shook
them and swept them we'll Then
she set an old kitchen table in the
yard, and drew part of the carpet
overi it, and washed it with a cloth
and soap suds. When that part
was clean, she drew over another
part, and SO on till all was washed.
She thought Mrs. G.'s way would
do well where carpet wasn't
much soiled except in spots, but if
a carpet must be wet all over she
"wanted it out doors, and not in the
house." a -. !
Mrs. E. commenced telling her
way but was too bewiIdered to-
hear more; so l went out and asked
she lady Of the house to let me help
her carry round the tea. Please,
Mr. Tor Mrs. Editor, ask some of
your correspondents to write and
say which of these "ways" is the
BEST way, or il there is one better
han any Of them,

houses were beaten down took shell

escaped bodily harm. We have
