one step farther back, who supports them
in their rule but the Government Ct the
United States7 The truth is, they and the
negroes arc nothing but the Instruments of the
United States to rule and to CRUSH the gouth.
This is the simple truth. The governments in
the South, under the Reconstruction laws OF
Congress. are not governments OF the people
of the South, white or black. They are moth
ing but governments Of the United States,
resting on the bayonets Of the United States
ssldiery, under the command of Presidents
Grant. The United States have set them up,
and IL they were to withdraw TO morrow their
military power, which alone sustains them.
they would collapse forthwith, like lou, bis.
ter pierced. Nothing, therefore. can be more
surprising and disgusting than to fnd lead
ing Southern periodical Affirming the supren-
acy and rule Of the negro in the affairs and
laws Of the South. The negro is convenient
tool to pxS.aiote Yankee interests, and to in
dulge Yankee hate e--and. in NO very long tiuae,
to become their victim. The worat government
on earth, is despotism under the forns Of
free government. ,ts

Without an Enemy.

Heaven help the man WHO imagines
he can dodge enemies by trying to please
everybody! If such an individual ever
succeeded we should be glad of it-not
that we believe in man going through
the world trying to tind beams to knock
and thump his poor head against, dispu-
ting every mans opinion, fighting and
elbowing and crowding all who differ
with him. That, again. is another ex-
treme. Other people have right to
their opinion, 50 have you; Don't fall in
to the error of supposing they will re-
spect you more for, turning your coat
every day to match the color of theirs.
Wear your own colors in spite of wind
or weather, storm or sunshine It costs
the vacillating andairresolute ten times
the trouble to wind, and shuttle, and
twist, that it does honest, manly inde-
pendence to stand its ground.

The explorers at Jerusalem have
made further discoveries of underground
structures-part of the ancient city
Which have for ages been hidden by &C
cumulations of rubbish and modern
buildings. They have opened vaulted
passage, one side of which is massive
masonry, the other perpendicular rock,
and this, rock is supposed to be the plat
form on which the Temple was built
Should this supposition prove true, the
long debated question as to the dimen-
,sions Of the Temple may perhaps be
settled; and the archaologists who hold
that the extent of the building was not
greater than appears in Josephus, may
find their views confirmed. From this
it will be seen that the explorations be-
come more and more interesting, but it is
unfortunate that, in order to lay open
old Jerusalem, a large part of modern
Jerusalem must be endangered or de.
stroyed. Nevertheless il we can succeed
in getting definite notion of what Je-
rusalem was like in the days of Herod,
all the money, labor and enthusiasm ex-
pended in obtaining that result will have
been well bestowed.

SIan1der.

Slander, Like love, is. born blind, and
should be so represented. If Love new
er sees vice, Slander never sees a vir-
tue. 1t can never make others what it
wishes them to be, but always makes f.
self what it desires to make others. Il
strikes at others, but its blows recoil
upon its own head. It is q dog that
bites the bitter. 1t IL, however, false 70
suppose it never bites any one else, for,
like serpent, it may fasten its fangs
upon another, and do it but too success
fully though it generally ends like the
scorpion, by thrusting It's venom into
its own. head. But it is poor consoIa-
ton to know that he who has killed an
other, dies at last by his own hands.

20 A BEAUTIFUL RETRosPEcr.-When the
summer day Of youth is slowly wasting
away in the nightfall of age, and the past
years grow deeper as night draws to q
close, it is pleasant to look back through
the vistas Of time upon the joys and sor-
rows Of early years. If we have q home
to shelter, or hearts to rejoice with US,
and friends who have been gathered
around our fireside. then the rough pla-
ces of our wayfaring will be worn and
smoothed away in the twilight of life,
while the bright sunny spots we have
passed through will grow brighter and
more beautiful Happy, indeed, are
those whose intercourse with the
world has not changed the course Of
their holier feeling, or broken those mu-
steal chords Of the heart whose vibra-
tions are SO melodious, so tender and so
touching in the evening Of age.

Mark Twain on the Pacific Railroad.

Mark Twain says: A singular prac-
tice has been introduced on the Pacific
road--that of ringing bell at the con-
clusion instead of the conntnencement of
repast. AS the hotels are unprovided
with bells, those on the locomotive en-
gines are made to answer the purpose.
There was a sign on the tavern door,,
which read, Bare Stake and Dear Meet
for Dinner swallowed bare stake
point foremost, and have been as stiff
and az straight as a lightning rod ever
since. had no time for the dear meet,
though the bare was a little on that
order. The engine uttered war whoop,
and we, plunging into the mountains,
found ourselves surrounded on all sides
by craggy peaks, impenetrable ravines,
untutored savages, and beasts Of prey.
There is a vast difference between an
American wilderness and an African
wilderness, besides the mere considera-
ton of geographical miles. In one You
are continually surrounded by black
bears; in the other by bare blacks.
The woods and mountains and hollows
were lined with Indians They must
have been, for there were mono visible
on the outside. Iagomi0aGa s a18 :

Wcrih Readinq.

We clip the following from an ex-
change, and give to our readers because
of its truthfulness. 1t is rather queer
piece of poetic prose, and yet contains
more truth than poetry. We commend
it to the notice of all business men:
when trade grew slack, and notes
fell due, the merchants face grew long
and blue; his dreams were troubled
through the night with sheriff ), bailiff' s,
all in sight At last wife unto him said.
Rise up at once, get out OF bed, and get
your paper, ink and pen, and say these
words unto all men: -z.
NV goods 7 wish to sell to you, and
to your wife and daughters too; my pri-
ces they shall be so low, that each shall
buy before they go,
HE did as his good wife advised, and
in the paper advertised. Crowds came
and bought of all he had; his notes were
paid his dreams were glad, and he will
tell you to this day how we'll did prin-
ter's ink repay.
He told US with knowing wink, how
he was saved with printers ink.
A merchant who did ink despise and
ne'er was known to advertise, happened
t other day in a place as tight, and
contented was the press to slight. And
did not let the people know of what he
had or where to go.
His drafts were due and were not
paid; levy on his goods was made; the
store was closed until the sale, aud for
some time he was in Jail. A bankrupt
now without cent, at leisure he can
deep repent, that he was foolish and un-
wise, and did not freely advertise

The directors of the New York and
New Haven railroad have decided, as an
experiment, to use wooden wheels on
some of the cars upon their road. Quite
a number of these wheels have been pur-
chased, and will be substituted for the
present iron ones on some of the new
cars. They are understood to cost near
ly treble the price of iron wheels, but
are considered quite as cheap in the end.
They are made of elm or teak wood,
and bound with steel tires. Besides be-
ing less liable to break by the action of
frost, they make less noise.

FIVE O'CLOCK IN THE MORNING.

The dew lay on the Rlittering grass Ee
A mist lay on the brook;
At the earliest beam of the golden sun, c1.
The swallow her nest forsook.
The snowy bloom of the hawthorn tree
Lay thickly, the ground adorning;
The birds were singing in every bush.
At five O'Clock in the morning.
And Bessie, the milkmaid. merrily sang,
For the meadows were fresh and fair
The breeze of the morning kissed her brow,
And played with her nut-brown hair.
But oft she turned and looked around,
As If the silence scorning;
Twas time for the mower TO whet his scythe
At five O'Clock in the morning.
And over the meadow the mowers came,
IS And merry their voices rang;
And one among them wended his way
To where the milkmaid sang,
And IS he fingered by her side,
Despite his comrades warning,
The old, old story was told again, :.
At Eve o'clock in the morning.
