Eloquent Tribute to Democracy.

Gen. Thomas Ewing, of Kansas. in
his speech at the Cooper Institute,
New York. before the Soldiers and
Sailors Convention, said:
The Republican party represents
no principle for which we fought. We
thought not of negro suffrage, lap
plausc and cries OF "no no,'') or white
disfrahchisement, or forcing on the
Southern States unequal fellowship
in the Union, never, never.1 or of
changing our beneficent form of gov
ment (never, never,) Out of the five
hundred thousand Union soldiers,
Democrats and republicans, who sleep
on thh fields washed by the waters of
the Atlantic and the Gulf, lot one
laid down his life for any such end.
OF the fifteen hundred thousand OF
their surviving comrades, not one
will say he would have risked his
life for either of these objects. And
these measures of the Republican
party are not only the object of the
war, but are so prosecuted as to defeat
those objects, and to infiict on the
nation evils as great as those the war
was waged to prevent. (Shouts, that's
so.0
The Democratic party is now the
only party true to the Constitution
and the Union. (Applause,l If we
would accomplish the purpose of our
service and sacrifice, if we would save
the Union and the States, their Hber-
ties and laws, we must unite with
the Democracy. Oong continued ap-
plause) In the path the Democratic
party treads we see the footprints OF
Washington, Jefferson, Madison, and
all the heroes of the Revolution; OF
Webster, jackson, Clay, Wright, and
all the giants of the generation just
gone before us; and while it keeps
that line of march, and bears the flag
of the Constitution. and the Union,
we can follow it with pride and with
unfaltering trust.

CONGRESS, at its last session, voted to
send 1000 Springfield muskets to each
Congressional District. Hon. Hora-
ito Seymour wisely and significantly
remarks :-"NeUer before ia the history
Of our country has Congress thus taken
q naenacia0 attitude tot0Ctrd its electOrs,'
and it is therefore not strange that
thoughtful men see in such action the
proof that the Radicals are actuated
by stronger motives than the mere
desire for power, that "here is u dread
Of some exposure aOhich driUes them to
acts so desperate and inpOHtic."

AT Democratic meeting at Au-
burn, N. Y, last week. the people of
all parties were surprised at a speech
from Gen. Geo. D. Robinson, who
has heretofore been a Republican and
has stumped the county In their be-
half The Albany Argus says Gen.
Robinson ''is an educated man, Of
strong reasoning powers, fearless in
the expression of his sentiments, and
always ready to give reason for hi5
faith. He entered the 10th Regiment

his way to the rank of Brevet Brigs-
dier General.

CONGRESS voted to dispense with the
vote of Virginia, Mississippi and
Texas in the coming election. A bill
passed the House which provides that
the conventions of those States shall
be the governments thereof till fur
ther orders, and that any person who
shall attempt ts Vote for President this
tall shall be fined one thousand dollars
and Imprisoned not less than month
nor more than a gear. They say

Another Invention in Steam Engines
A Revolution In Progress-Centri
fugal Engine.

A new invention has been introduc-
ed into the mechanical world, which
promises to work an entire revolution
in the application OF steam to the
various purposes of life. People had
supposed that about the last improve
ment that could be made in steam
engines had been made, but this new
invention proves that people in sup
posing this were mistaken. A ma
chine has been introduced which does
away with cylinder principle alto
gether, as well as with the piston,
crank, steam chest, oil cans, &c. The
engine which makes all these changes
is the Centrifugal Steam engine, and
is the invention of Benjamin Frank
lin, OF Westmoreland county. AL
ready it has taken high rank among
the recent inventions of the day, and
it is morally certain TO overcome all
obstacles & win its way to q foremost
position. The most competent prac-
tical engineers havSexamined it, and
pronounce its success certain. They
confidently predict that 1t will super
sede all other kinds.
The facts which recommend 1t are
many AS we have said, it does away
entirely with the cylinder principle,
depending on centrifugal force. Thus
the mechanism is greatly simplifed,
and the engine is much more easily
understood and much more economi-
cally worked than the old kind. In
the new engine friction is almost en-
tirely overcome. 1t will produce fif-
teen hundred revolutions to the min
ute, with ols-fourth of the steam re-
quired to produce the same number
OF revolutions in the old style, and
with the same amount of horse power.
The Centrifugal Steam engine con-
denses almost all of its steam, which,
1t Is needless to y,is, in itself, a great
saving. Another prime recommends
alton Of the new engine is the fact
that its great simplicity of construc-
tion makes it much more economical
than any other. 1t can be constructed
for not more than one fourth of the
expense required for the old styIe,and
when made, it is almost impossible
for 1t to get out of order. So simple
is it that a child can run it,

An Alabamian and Carpet-Bagger.

The following conversation as re-
peated to us by one Of the Senators,
who was present, occurred in the pub
lie Office OF the Governor just after he
had sent to the Senate his veto on the
Electoral Bills:
Datus E. Coon, of Iowa, (pretend-
ing to represent Dallas county, Ala
bama)-"Governori thought from
what you said before the passage of
this Bill, that you would not veto it. {"
Governor w. II. Smith-'I have
neither said nor intimated any such
purpose, I have disapproved of the
measure from the outset, and consid-
er it my duty to object to its final
passage"
Coon-"If we had known that you
would veto this measure, we would
not have let my militia bill go by.
We would have organized the militia
to protect the loyal voters from out
rage"
The GoVernor-'1 am not response
BILE for any misapprehension you may
have Iabored under"
Coon. lgrowing excited)-"I will
not leave here until some measure is
adopted for the protection of loyal
m&n. If any Union mans blood is
spilled in Dallas county, will lay the
houses in Dallas county and. the city
of Selma in ashes"
Tho Governor, losing his equanim-
ity)-"I look upon your remarks as
hiphly offensive, and will not permit
myself to listen to them. There is no
reason why the Presidential election
in this State should not be PEACEFUL
So far as know, and have opportu-
mites to know, the people of this
State are law-abiding and do not in
tend violence. have means to pre-
serve order, and will have the earnest
support of every class.of men in the
State. / ain an Alabamian, sir, and
am not afraid to submit this question
to the people. Good morning, SIR"

that a school girl of sixteen,i in Saline,

Commissioner Welles, in his parti-
san statement of the expenses and re-
ceipts of the Government, during the
past year, reports that the debt was
decreased about thirty four millions.
On the first of August, 1857, the debt
$2,5l4, ,a0d, ,42d, and on the first of Au-
gust, 1888, it was 50, ,523, 435, ,48O. This
shows that the debt was increased
over twelve millions during the year.

man, who understands the time and

candidate for Congress in Iowa, says
"We tell them (the Republicansj

by ballots or bullets-by ballots if the

THE CHILDREN.

The following beautiful poem was writ
ten bysChas. Dickens:
The Portland daily press., 1868-05-06

TRUTH AT HoME.-Of all happy house
holds, that is the happiest where falsehood is
never thought of. All peace is broken up
when once it appears that there is liar in
the house. All comfort has gone when sus-
picien has entered-when there must be a
reserve in talk and reservation in belief.
Anxious parents who are aware of the pains
of suspicion, will place general confidence in
their children, and receive what they say
freely, unless there is strong reason to dis
trust the truth of any one. Should such ar
occasion unhappily arise, they must keep the
suspicion from spreading as long as possible,
and svoid disgracing their poor child while
there is chance of its cure by their confiden-
tial assistance. He should have their pity
and their assiduous help, as if he were suffer-
ing nom some disgusting bodily disorder.
If he can be cured, he will become truly
grateful for the treatment. If the endeavor
fails, means must of course be taken to
prevent his example from doing harm; and
then, as said, the family peace is broken up,
because the family confidence is gone. /
tvar that for some cause or ether, there are
but few large families where every member
Is altogether truthful. But where all are so
organized and so trained as to be wholly re-
liable in act and word, they are light to all
and a joy to all hearts. They are public bene-
fits, for they are point of general reliance,
and are blessed within and without. Without,
their life is made easy by universal trust; and
within their homes and their hearts they
have the security of rectitude, and gladness

Miscellany.



Mr.. George G. lockwood, the eminent pho
tographer, writes to the New York Evening
Post the following account of new photo
graphic process, which from its simplicity will
be of interest to amateurs in that art:
Ibelieve you have sufficient number of
readers interested in and practising photo
graphy to warrent my sending you new for
mua for preparing "dry-plates" for field work
and making pictures of interiors. The nee
essary chemicals, baths, dishes and parapher-
MALTA for making pictures by the ordinary
process are so extensive as to render moving
about from place to place quite irksome. To
do away with this diSaereeable necessity
many processes have been invented for pre-
pairing the plates in laboratory or "dark
room" with some preventative. So complica-
ted have all these processes been that anna
taers, and in fact the professional photograph
ers, are beginning to look upon them as al
most impracticable. You will be tempted to
smile when tell you L found the great des-
ideratum in cup of English breakfast tea.
Take eight ounces of tea, of the ordinary
table strength, and dissolve in it about three
drachms OF crystalized or lump sugar. ("No
milk, if you please.") As soon as dissolved,
filter and let settle until clear and cold. SEN
sitize the plate in the ordinary manner, and
thoroughly wash with clean water, then flow
1t with the saccharine tea solution two or
three times, and set it away in dark closet
to dry spontaneously. When dry expose the
plate, on the view, about four times as long
as in practising with the wet process under
similar circumstances. After exposure wash
the plate with water, and flow it with fif-
teen degrees solution OF nitrate of silver.
Drain for moment, and develop with proto
sulphate of iron solution of the usual
strength, or with pyrogallic acid. 1 much
prefer, the latter. The following is good
formula:
Pyrogallc acid grains.
Sltrlc acid grain.
5lac'al acet1c acid 10 mlnims.
Water LOUNGE.
Add no silver to the developer until it is
found necessary to force the development to
obtain the proper density. Use the plates
within two or three days after preparing
them. e .-.--.....-.. ....-..
Our grandmothers used to find their "for
tunes" in the bottom of a cup of tea; and
1t is not impossible that we may find some
new pastime and occupation there.

To rive up all work and rush out to fresh air.
How "a a II Is croQuets pleasure, not duty;
How nice profession it would be to stay

For yondsr maiden Is welding malet,
She Stops to the sward and fainIwould surrender
All chances of winning to keep by her side,
But she crcquets me ruthlessly, laughs when I'm

And sends me away Ger the garden SO wide.
Yet cling to the dream, and still 60 on playing
For Croqnet and Cupid are ne'er far apart;
And, perchance, e'er the season has gone for the

I'll never despair, but on days that are brightest
I'll stay like moth, near my beautiful flame;

If losing would win her-pd give up the game.
