Can't Sleep with the Whole Party.

We heard the following good joke rei
lated yesterday of member of the Pen;
dleton club, of Cincinnati, at the New
York Convention. It appears that he
could not go with the club when it start
ed, but followed it day or two. after
ward. Reaching the city in the night,
and preferring to go to a hotel rather
than hunt up the headquarters of the
club at that late hour, he made his way
to an up town hotel. OF course it was
crowded. But what seemed wonder,
there was one room unoccupied. To
that the tired Cincinnatian was assigned,
and was socn masrhaled away thither
by bell boy. He was not little dis
mayed to find the room to be about
eight by ten feet, with q small window
fronting on an unfathomable alley, its
depths made vocal by battalion Of tom
cats, redolent with unnumbered smells.
He at once objected to such quarters,
and dispatched the bell boy after the
clerk, who soon made his appearance
"See here" said the Cincinnatian,
"do you expect me to stay in this place
all nj ght?"
The clerk assured him that, in conse-
quence of the crowded condition of the
hotel, no better accommodation could
be afforded him, although it would be a
great pleasure on his part to give him
the best room in the house. And ad-
ded the clerk, by way of clinching ar
gument, "Gen. Grant slept in this room
once when he visited the CITY,"
The gentlemen from Porkoplis said
he didn't care continental as to that,
but if General Grant could stand it he.
supposed he could.
The clerk returned to the Office, COM
plimenting himself upon his strategy.
The guest retired to his bed, and in
five minutes he was attacked by count
less hosts of bed bugs. Finding it use
less to contend against such overwhelm-
ing numbers, he hastily attired himself
and sought the Office. "Why," said
the astonished clerk, "I thought you
we're satisfied to stay in your room all
night" "Now, look here, said the.
Cincinnatian, eve got pluck enough
to sleep where Gen. Grant has slept,
but I'll be eternally cursed if [ can
make up my mind to sleep with the.
whole Radical party" Cincinnati En-
auirer.

"THE D-DEsT oL."-Recently
in Vicksburg there was large Demo-
cratic procession in which were borne
several United States flags, which, at the
request of several citizens, had been
loaned them by the post quarter-master.
The parade of voters being large and
impressive, alarming the carpet baggers,
several of them called on Gen. Gillem
and complained that his officer had furn-
ished flags to procession which was
"impeding reconstruction" "Gentle-
men," said the General, "you are the.
d-dest fools l ever saw. l fought
these people four years to make them
carry the flag, and now you are mad
because they wish to march under it ;"

The Southern Riots.

If the history of these Southern riots
is carefully looked up, it will be found
that they all trace their parentage di-
rectly to the Radical managers. They
have got the machinery in such work
ing order that when riot is needed in
any particular locality, for party end,
it can be had at short order. The New
Orleans riot was one wholly of their
own making; the Mobile riot was the
same. d Wherever We hear of an out
break in which the blacks are generally
made the cat's-paw and the suffering
party, we discover the hand of Radical
ism elumsily concealed in the concep-
tion and management of it. The Radi-
Gals, for instance, finding Georgia likely
to go against them in the general cleo
tion, first went to work and expelled the
negro members from the Legislature
Then, after duly parading the fact over
the country as another democratic
outrage" "perpetrated by a body in which
the Democrats were largely in a minor
ity, they have undertaken to intensity
the excitement by arming body of sew
eral hundred negroes, and marching
them with music into a peaceful town
which they were warned not to enter
in that menacin: manner; the violent
result of which measure they of course
foresaw and were not disappointed in.
And now their journals are crying the
affair up as a Democratic outrage!-
And the occurrence is pointed to as
proof of the still rebellious temper of
the people of Georgia! This sort of
thing is much too serious in its conse-
quences to be deliberately impressed as
an agent into party service. When
men take arms in their, hands instead
of arguments on their lips, they confess
that their cause is lost already. The
Radical managers are responsible for
all these riots.
The Camilla affair is but the sequel
to the affair of expulsion in the Legis-
lature of Georgia. Only dozen Radi-
Cal members vi Gndo UOuJ oiSuON ShN
protest which committee of colored
men we're to have presented to Congress.
Where were all the rest of the names! !!
In one branch of the Legislature, there
were some fifty Radical members, near
ly as many Democrats, and twenty-five
negroes. The latter were unscated,
eighty votes having been cast for the
proposition. And out of all the Radi-
calls in both Houses, but a dozen are
found who are willing to sign their
names to the memorial which was to be
presented to Radical Congress. How
is this to be styled a Democratic out
rage?" In fact, how could impudence
90 farther than in so styling it? And
the Camilla outrage is a got-up affair OF
the same pattern. We hear of no out
breaks at the South for which the
knavish Radical managers are not re-
sponsible. They plan them and carry
them out for the sole purpose OF feeding
the flames of that sectional prejudice
which all true Union lovers are SO anx-
ious to extinguish.-Boston Post.

From one end of the country to the
other the cry goes up from the people
that we must have change. The far
mers demand change; the merchants

everywhere demand change; the tax
payers demand a change; the lovers of
the Constitution demand change; the
white people say they must have a
change of administration. Matters cam
not be made worse; they will not be
made worse; they shall not be made
worse. They must be made better by
any change. Let the people all unite

on good paper, and contains most copious in

&C. 1t is the only work which gives any thing
approaching correct descriptions of cities and

Every one that reads, every one that mingles
in society, is constantly meeting with illusions
to subjects on which he needs and desires fur
ther information. In conversation, in trade,
in professional life, on the farm, in the family,
practical questions are continually arising
which no man, we'll read or not, can always
satisfactorily answer. If facilities for refer
ence is at hand, they consulted, and not
only is the curiosity gratifed, and the stock of
knowledge increased, but perhaps information
is gained and ideas are suggested that will di-
rectly contribute to the business success of the
party concerned.
A Cyclop3dia is preeminently the work for
our country and generation. This is the age
of steam. No one has time to grope among a
hundred different works for every little fact re-
quired. without the certainty Of finding it at
last. With a Cyclopadia, embracing every
conceivable subject, and having its topics al
phabetically arranged, not moment is lost
The matter in question is found at once, digest
ed, condensed, stripped of all that is irrelevant
and unnecessary, and verified by comparison
of the best authorities. Moreover, while only
men of fortune can collect library complete
in all the departments of knowledge, Cyclic
p9dia, worth in itself for purposes of reference
at least thousand volumes, is within the reach
of all the clerk, the merchant, the profession
al man. the farmer, the mechanic. In coun-
try like ours, where the humblest may be called
to responsible positions, requiring intelligence
and general information, the value of such a
work cannot be over-estimated.
