The Record of scuyIer Collar.

The following are extracts from the
Congressional speeches of Schuyler Col
fax. He said of the employment of
negro troops:
s. do not call negro soldiers better
than white ones. If / were to express
my own opinion it would be that those
of my own color are better and Drawer

charges 10 the contrary, that believed

platform after the breach with Mr. John.
son thus:
''Let US make haste slowly, and we can
then hope that the foundations Of our
government, when thus reconstructed
on the basis of indisputable loyalty, will
be as eternal as the stars
In like manner, on the 10th of April,
1866, when he made mild but manly is
sue with johnson, he said Of the civil
rights bill, in the first moment Of its en-
actment
''That law, misrepresented as il has
been by its opponents in Congress, will
never be repealed, and in the wears that
are coming it will be the proudest recol-
lection and the crowning honor Of those
men who stood up in the national coun-
ellis, that they gave to that American
Magma Charta their cordial support"
He treated in this way . taunt of the
Democracy:

EDWARD ROWLAND.

In the preparation of this work the greateet care
has been taken to fully satisfy the public in regard
to Gen. Grants opinions the leading questions of
the day, and to present such anays of his ele
mentary character to demonstrate what the public
may rely upon in General Grant, whatever complica-
tons National affairs may hereafter assume,
while he holds important position among the chief
executive forces of the country.
The silence reticence of Gen. Grant, heretofore,
and which has been subject of SO much comment.
and not unrequently uncalled for curiosity, will be
found thoroughly explained upon the score of the
most statesman-ike prudence and wisdom.
Gen. Grant belongs to that class of great men
mosthenic definition Of action action Z! action y!
rather than in words but he is found wanting in
vigorous power with the pen in the elegances of
compact and emphatic style Of utterance in language
In the general hubbub of politics when the small
men and demagogues each and all forcing oppor-
tuntes to express their views, the silent men who
speak only hen necessity mmands, and are apt to
be overlooked, their silence is msinterpreted. 1t
is desirable, therefore, that rejecting people-they
upon whose shoulders, more than upon any others,
"the dignity and safety of the Republic after all de-
pend" should withdraw from the turmoil, long
enough at least to study and Judge what may be
pected in the future such men as General Grant,
whom no devices Of demagogues wiies of opposing
statesmen, can depose from popular exaltation. II
becomes then the duty, it will be the pleasure of
such to thoroughly study him.
OF the number Of works in the form Of biography,
etc, with which the public are supplied, regarding
General Grant, We confidently believe this will be
found the most acceptable, thorough and reliable II
is written from the highest standpoint of biographical
inquiry and sntaticn, and must take its place
among the classic literature OF the land.

@CI - - Anew Csavsn.
A Jolly party of our citizens, says the
IL CD Great Fails IN. H. journal, went on .
fishing excursion lately. and as they
were most of Democratic tendencies, con-
cludcd to attend the Democratic County
Convention on the way to the ponds,
thereby economising in time and money.
Now, one Of the fishermen whom we viii
call Smith, is square Republican, and
went only for the fishing and not for the
politics His comrade, whom we will
call Jones, on the way to Rochester,
threatened to publish him as full delegate
TO the Democratic Convention. Smith
says mo you don't" John says
Hanged if don't"
The convention being over, and the
party arrived at the pond, Smith and
Jones by themselves started upon the
ice, Smith ahead, Jones behind-when,
unfortunately, Jones pumped into an
air hole and stuck in the mud below
"Hullo, Smith! I'm in-help me out
cried Jones.
s'Ha, ha," laughed Smith.
What are you laughing at, you fool?
Help me out, don't you see I'm freezing"
said Jones, earnestly.
Zones, my boy, will you vote the Re-
publican ticket next March?" said Smith,
seriously. 3 Ga l4JJif
mo, sir, I'll die in the Democratic
faith, '.said Jones, firmly.
he sat' "Well." said Smith, 'its my duty to
strengthen my party. What do you want
me to say to your family?'
"Come, come, stop fooling-and help
me out" said Jones, emphatically.
80, DUTY before pleasure" said Smith,
cody sitting down on the ice.
Poor Jones struggled and pushed, but
the harder he pushed the deeper he sunk.
The cold, cold water, had filed his vest
pockets, and then his watch pocket, and
was now beginning ''to tickle down over
his buttond vest.
For Gods sake Smith, are you going
TO SIT here and see me dep shrieked
he.
my dear boy, will you vote the Re-
publican ticket next March?'' said Smith
solemnly.
Jones hesitated-but the water was
bubling about his chin, and an anxious
look at the cOuntenance of Smith con-
WINGED him that there was no show; he
said:
'.Smith, if you will only help me out,
I'll vote the Republican ticket in the
spring, and Grant in the fall!
Agreed said Smith, enthusiastically,
and he pulled with such alacrity that
Jones was out in jiffy. A rousing fire
was built, and Jones was soon dried and
warmed, inside and out. He is about
town alive and hearty, but he wears a
good deal such look at President John |
is supposed to wear when enforcing |
the reconstruction act
