BOYNTON'S ELEVATED OVEN RANGE

This new and beautiful Range, which has lust
been completed is now offered to the public as the
most complete, convenient and desirable Elevated
Oven Range Ill the market and is the result of long
experience i'll the manufacture and setting of Cook
ing Ranges ;and We do not hesitate in recommend
ing it as the nearest to perfection of any Elevated
Oven Range in the country.
We will cnumerate some of the Dcculiar advan
tages this Range possesses
F1rst-lt is more beautiful in form and design
than any other pattern.
Second-It has q much larger hot place Snrf,.a
for Boilers and Stew Pans, affording larger accom
modahons for Cooking purposes.
Third-It has smaller Fire Chamber and burns
less coal than any other pattern of Elevated oven
mango, 1of the simple reason that the fire chamber
is entirely surrounded with fire brick instead of an
open CRATE in front and water back in the rear
forming two sides Of the fire las in all other pattern
ranges,l both OF which chill and deaden the fire and
detfact largely from the power, and make it absC-
lutely necessary to burn larger amount of fuel
fourth-The body of this Range is higher than
other patterns and is more like the French Ktch-
ehefs' making 1t much more convenient and easy
for the cook.
Fifth--The hot closets are more accessible
placed i'll natural position lbeing in the body of
the Range instead of above the ovens as in other
patterns.
Sixth-The ovens do not project over the boiling
surface as to make it announcement in removing
the boilers as in other patterns
Seventh-There are better arrangements for con-
veying the steam to chmneys and controlling the
draft, than most ranges
Eighth-The ovens bake more evenly, as we have
return hue over the top of the oven (Which is the
point that most often f-ils thus securing perfect
oahlbg oven on tie top as well as on the bottom
Nlnth-The fues il tits range are all complete in
themselves, so tn; unnecessary to form them
OF Drlck, (which hs the heat,) and makes the
setting of them n 81 more simple and sure
Tenth-The water back can be removed and the
plumbing work can be repaired, if necessary with
out disturbing the brick work

GENERAL LOGAN ON THE DECORATION OF RE-
BEL GRAVES.

=.
General Logan has issued an order,
dated at Washington, June 2, rs Com.
mander.in- Chief of the Grand Army of
the Republic, in which be explains OFF,
cially why the graves of rebels were
not decorated as well as those Of I'm
ion soldiers. He says that the charges
against the marines on guard at Ar
lington are wilful exaggerations. The
guard received their instructions from,
the committee, and it is believed that
they discharged their duty in a proper
manner and spirit. The Grand Army
of the Republic seeks to honor and
preserve the principles and institutions
for which it's members and their dead
comrades fought.
We strew flowers, therefore, on the
graves of our comrades, and prevent
their being strewn in the national
cemeteries at the same time on the
graves of such rebel dead as may be
buried therein, not because we cherish
any feelings of hate or desire to tri-
umph over individual foes, but because
we seek to mark in this distinction and
manner the feeling with which the ma
ton regards freedom and slavery, 10y
atty and treason, republican principles
and those of a slaveholding oligarchy
We are ready to forgive-we hold NJ
malice-but we will never consent b,
public national tribute to obliterate tn
wide gulf which lies between the oh
jects, motives, and principles for whicl
we fought and our comrades died, ant
those for which the rebel armies band
ed together, and for which their dea'
now lie in numerous graves.

Mr.. BR1GHT's "H&srY EFFusIoN."
Mr.. Bright has written a letter to a
meeting in Birmingham, IN which he
SAYS of the House of Lords delay in
the passage of the Irish Church Bill
that they will stimulate the discussion
of the subject, which might sIumber for
wears. The value of q constitution
which gives a majority in one House
in favor of and in the other House
against a given policy may be ques-
toned. Why is it that. when the
Crown and Commons are in harmony
with the nation. the Lords are in di-
rect opposition? AS long as the House
of Lords act in harmony with the coun-
try they may go on for q long Time
When they thwart it's course they may
meet with unpleasant accidents. Mr.
Bright concludes with the hope that

Delegates in Congress. Upon hearing OF

charges had been preferred against the sus'

pounds two years ago, and it is belie9ed
that she weighed GOO pounds at the time

she was obliged to sit on sort of q box
as no chair could be found strong enough
to bear her. In dying Mrs Ogburn fell tt
the floor, and it required the strength Of six
stont men to raise her by means of the
