IL WAS an unusually colo svcnin8-soss
Of yestsrday-which taken 10 connection
With tho announcement Of President
0fants cabinet, caused an inmsnss chat
tsring Of tech and shivsring Of euticls
among the supes>pendicalar republican
bssthrsn Of this vicinity. Not sheet vas
heard, not single hat Vas tossed into the
air; no. warm ceugrstulstion nor bread
smile Of hearty approval va nstiesabls
among the Intensely faithful. Instead Of
shosts came grunts ard growls; instead Of
cheers came " cussing"; hats were drawn
c,oss down over unusually msditativs coun-
tensnees and jaws firmly fixed. IL "ss
probably the coldest Political shower bath
they have experienced Tor many day.
They looked forth among The old political
var-horses Of the Radical stud-thc Sum-
nsrs, the Wilson's, the wades, Curtins and
the like, but not man Of thsm-not . soul
ofths original simon pure, save ens-and
that not . pleasant sxceptien-was TO be
found In the list. "Who's Bsvie, who's
Cox, who's Hoars; who's Crssswell!"
and such suss,ions, intsrspsIsed with ems
pha;ic adjectives were handed from man 10
man with deep concern and sckly inquiry.
o. the other hand the nominations, - .
body. struck the democracy very favorsbly.
or course there are men subject to serious
objections, but - whole tho slate was 30
much more acceptable than was expected
that they seemed to give it an almost cor
dial endor.emsnt. II contains not little
but . good deal Of democratic lesvsn. 1t
ignores, IS . whole. the ultra-radical poll
ticians Of the land. and comports favorably
with the pre- conceived opinion that the
new president would snub the master
spirits Of the radical pandsmonium.
Even the accredited organ Of the repub-
licaa party in this city, the Battle
axo Of Liberty was put sghast-struck
dumb bv the terrible announcement. In
supreme disgust-fsrvsntly hoping that u
was cruel Ike that some wsg at the other
end Of the hns vas attempting TO pesps-
trats-our nsiehbor declined making any
mention 1t oil Of the newly named cabinet
an item Tor which the readers thereof
looked with great anxiety.
The action Of tho new President seems
10 Be 10 perfect harmony with bis lnausur-
al, and with his previous declaration TO
Psnnsylvania Mcclure and = the commit
tee that waited upon him to inform him OF
his election. Ths indications are strong
that Grant is not the man the truly loil' y

Thar,s Folks Out Here.

A writer, who signs himself eE. D. p"
in the West Georgia Gazette, tells this pref
ty good story Of the late war: Our corps
(Longstreet's), already .decimated from ex-
posture, want of food, clothing and medicine,
and by the deadly rifles of skulking bush
whackers, in the vicinity Of, Tennessee,
where we had wintered--cut off from all COM
munication with Dixie, after the disasterous
affair at Missionary Ridge the loss of which
stronghold forced our leader to raise the
seigc Of Knoxville. These almost daily bat
ties had so terribly thinned our little rem
nant, that when we arrived in front Of Rich
mond there were so few left that we hailed
with delight the advent Of the conscripts,
though we laughed until the tears came in
our eyes to see the poor fellows come into
camp looking SO sad and ready to cry Poor
fellows! we pitied them. But their fearful
countenances and long jean coats-the skirts
of which almost reached the ground-and
.haversacks made of half a bolster case, filled
with baked pullets and biscuits, to say nothing
Of two or three bed quilts hanging on their
shoulders, was intensely lludicrops to US, ...o
's We were getting together in skirsnish par,
ty early one morning, to drive some Federal
sharpshooters from our front, when one OF
the above poor fellows, who "didn't want ter
afite," came into camp "ter be a soger," and he
was forthwith put on detail, armed, oand told
to do as the other men did! Scrambling over
the breastworks, the line depioyed and ad-
,vanced briskly through a field near the wood,
along the, edge Of which were the Feds
Bang whiz zip! and a Mimic made dab at
our heroes feet. ia He cut a double shuttle,
and looked askance at his comrades; but
seeing they took no notice of it, concluded it
was an accident, and went OH few steps
further, when crushing yolley from the
woods acted like a heavily charged galyanic
battery on our hero's system. He fairly yell
ed with amazement and CONSERVATION, as,
cutting pigeon, wing that would have done
credit toya Blondin,s he tore himself loose
from the quilts, haversack and gun, and with
bursting eyes and quivering lips, through
which. in hard drawn breathing issued, 20
lord y! o, me e-e". and with chat long
coattail tapping perpcndicularly to the zenith
he made for the safe side of a tree, and in a
voice Of agony above the ringing of rifles
and tho wild yell Of our charging line, he
shouted: Ftgl ..#eg 49, ,ttasteg

The following exquisite poem from Lord Byron
to his sister will be read with renewed intercs
because Of Mrs. Stoves slandorous article:'
Though the day of my destiny's over,
And the'star Of my fate hath declined, ~
Thy soft heart refused to discover
The faults which so many could find; iis
Though thy soul with my grief was acquainted
1t shrunk not to share it with me, 'f D.
And the love which my spirit hath painted
1t never hath found but in thee.
Then when nature around me is smiling, q
The last smile which answers TO mine, .s..
do not believeit beguiIing,
Because it reminds me of thine ,,r. ,.lsr.7 !
AS when the winds are at war with the ocean,
As the breasts believed in with me, a39h'3 =
If their pillows excite an emotion,
tits that they bear me from thee i .r.
ssifB.aE u ais .teoe 50 fsa.
Though the rock Of my last hope is shivered
And its fragments are sunk in the waves,
Though feel that my soul is delivered e
To paint shall not be a slave. e vi.
There is many pang to pursue me;
They may crush; but they shall not condemn
They may torture, but not subdue me
IT'S of thee that think, not of them. ~. =
Though human thou didst not deceive me; seiir
Though woman thou didst not forsake; -
Though loved, thou forbearest to grieve me;
Though slandered, thou never couldst shake
Though trusted, thou didst not diselaim me; e..
Though parted, it was not to fly;
Though watchful, it was not to defame me,
Nor mute that the world might belle.
Yet blame not the world, nor despise it,,
Nor the war of the many with one
If my soul was not fitted to prize it.
!: i'Twas folly not sooner to shun; RI
And if dearly that error has cost me,
And more than once could forsee,
have found, that whatever it lost me Ga
1t could not deprive me of thee. 2. Fi+
From the wreck Of the past which hath persisted
Thus much 1 OF least may recall, .,e. Az
Jthath taught me that what most cherished
Deserved to be dearest of all. 'a
In the desert fountain is springing,
In the wild waste there still is tree, M
And bird in the solitude singing, ia;u ar
Which speaks to- my spirit Of thee.

WEAVING "A complete revolution in
weaving is prophesicd from the introduction
of method by which the woof is carried
through the chain in a curve instead OF at
right angle. A variety IN the pattern both
in shade and makings, can be attained IN this
way of which the old process was wholly m
capable This process is adapted to fabrics OF
any kind, and can be used both for weaving

RI Coon ADvICE:-Do not choose your friend
by his looks; handsome shoes often pinch
the feet Don't be fond Of compliments :
remember, ''Thapk you, pussy, and thank.
you pussy" killed the cat. Don't believe, in
the man who talks most for moving cats
are very seldom good mousers Byno means
put yourself in another persons power ); if
you put your thumb between two grinders,
they are very apt to bite. Drink nothing
without seeing it; sign nothing without
reading it, and make sure that it means no
more than itssays. In any business, never
wade into water where you can not see the
bottom. Put no dependence uponfthc label
Of a bag and count money after your own.
See the sack open before yoa buy what is in
it; for he who trades in the dark asks to be
cheated Keep clear Of the men who does
not value his own character. Beware of
no man more than yourself; we carry our
worst enemies with u.s. When new iopin
ion or doctrinecomes before you, do not bite
till you know whether i: is bread or stone,
and do not be sure that tie gingerbread is
good because of the gilt on it. Never shout
halo! illyou are quite out of the woods !;
and never cry fried fish till they are caught
ia the net There is always time enough to
boast7-wait q little, longer. Don't throw
away dirty water till you have. got clean /;
keep on scraping the roads till you can. get
better work for the poorest pay is better
than none, and the hunblest office is better
than being out of employment. Always give
up the road to bulls and madmen; and never
fight with a coal HEAVIER, or contend with a
base character, for they will be sure to black
