PA, THURSDAY. AUGUST ). 1863


The awful silence grows deeper. The
deep drawn breath of the brother. and the
broken gasp of the murderer alone dis
turned the stiffness. The widow and
dark-haired boy are breathless. The lit
tie girl, as she caught feeling of awe
from those around her, stood breathless,
her face turned aside, and her tiny fin
gers resting on the lines of life and death.
At length, gathering courage, the Wild
oW bent her eJes upon the page, and
read. 1t was from the new Testament :
Love your enemies ~
Obi book of terrible majesty. and
child Ike love of sublimity that erushes
the heart with rapture, itnever shone more
strongly than there; in that lonely hut of
Wissahicon. when it saved the murderer's
heart.
Now look now wonderful are the ways
of Heaven That very night as the
widow sat by her freside-sat there with
crushed heart and hot eyelids, thinking
of her husband, who now lay on the
drenched soil of Paoli-there was a tap
at the door. She opend it, and tha,
husband, living, though covered will
wounds, was In her arms
He had fallen at Paoli dut not in death
He Was alive, aud his wife painting OF
his bosom
That night there was prayer and thanks
giving in the wood embowered cottage 0
Wissahicon.

THE PENNSYLVANIA DEMoCRAcY.-
The Democrats in Pennsylvania have nom.
mated Asa Packer as their candidate for
Governor. Asa Packer would make u
good Governor, but the convention that
nominated him have hung bob to til at
kite which will swamp him. They have
pronounced against negro suffrage, pr;n.
ciple the conservatives of Virginia accept
ed as positive fact, and by the help of
that vote not only elected their candidate
for Governor, but gave death sting to the
carpet-baggers and scalawags. The Penn
syvania Democracy in smouldering Heis-
ter C!ymer, their old candidate, have only
presented a new victim to to placed upon
the political scaffo,d for the Geary davis

the lady sat, said, with peculiar twinkle
in the eye:
"My wife, Mr., of New York,
who assures me he will die before reach
ing Detroit if he does not form your &C
qualntance."
The gentleman stammered, suffered,
grew red in the face, faltered out some ex-
cuse, and returned to his seat, leaving the
lady in company with her husband
to enjoy the joke. While they were
talking, he left his seat, came up, and
said
'All right, Mr.. conductor, owe you

you will rot say anything about this; and
If you want anything to drink before the

THE FICTICIoUs Il want paper
that has long stories in it," said young
lady; and she added, Il don't want a paper
for anything else" Poor girl much to bt

make through life, at the present rate
She wants nothing serious. no acquaintance
with the history Of her times, Eothing in
tellectual; nothing bat newspaper novels
Empty heads they must be that can find
room every week for some ten olgmns of a
sham story Yet these are the heads for
which the weekly press tolls and groans,
throwing off by the ten thousands it, sheets
of shallow. insipid, and disgusting fiction;
and for this an amount of money is paid
which sound literature utterly fails to COM
mand. Fathers and mothers buy this vile
trash for their sons and daughters, and Sc
minister to their Ignorance and destltutlon
of all good taste and fitness for life's duties
Doubtless the periodical press does more
than any other one instrumentality to de-
eide the opinions, habits of thought, and
general character of the age. A family will
very soon begin t. show sympathy wich
it's weekly paper, and parent aud children
will soon begin a;siailating toit n sentiment
and feeling; and as families are, so is the
community at large, Blind and stupid,
therefore. yea, worse, are those who toier-
ate in their houses class Of papers which
are made up of the writings OF silly, igno-
rant scribblers, who would be at the foot
in the town school OF good morals. Such
are teachers Of half of the generation.

A Joker Caught.

A soldier of the late war relates the
following:
While we were lying in camp at Rossvslle.
Georgia, the sixteenth Illinois returned
from their veteran furlough with number
OF recruits One of these having exhaus-
tea his supply of clean shirts, and not vet
having learned to be his own laundress,
asked a veteran where he could get some
washing done
do you see those tents there by the
church? Well, so there and ask for Mr..
Morgan he does washing He's a crusty
old cuss, but if you talk pretty nice to him
he'll do it for YOU
The recruit went as directed, and found
Gen. Geo. W. Morgan walking in front of
his tent dressed, as was his custom In the
uniform of high private.
"Where will find Mr. Morgan 2"
'My name is Morgan, What will you
have ?'
Il came to see if 1 could get some
clothes washed %
"H-m-m. Who sent you here to get
your clothes washed? Z"
John Smith, over here in the GOTH"
Corporal of the guard - (The corpo-
raj approached, and Saluted) - oung man
60 with corporal and show him ohm Smith,
so that he can bring him over here And
you come back with him and bring all the
dirty clothes you have"
They departed aud soon returned with
the guilty veteran and a huge armful OF
dirty shirts, socks, ETC.
The General to Smith: did you
send this young man here to have his
clothes washed ?'
Yes, sir, for joke"
''For joke Wen we'll have the joke
carried out. We do have clothes washed
here sometimes. Corporal, take this MAI
Smith and that bundle of clothes down 4
the creek, and have him wash them, anc
fold them up neatly, and return them to
the owner. See that he does the jot
handsomely 70
The veteran went away to his to wori
sorrowfully, and the General resumed hi:
walk, no doubt thinking it good joke.

The Committee on Foreign Relations
in the United States Senate on Thurs
day last reported against the ratification
Of the Johnson-StanIey treaty. The
vote in committee, it is stated, was six
to one, Senator Bayard alone voting in
favor Of it. That the report Of the
committee will be sustained there can
be little doubt. There will be some
discussion, aad some votes in favor OF
lis ratification, but now that the Rcpab
licsn party has discovered how much
England is willing to give mp, il will
not be inclined TO abate one ioia Of i.s
demands, which became only the more
exacting, as they appear TO be submitted
to without opposition.
The new Tax bill cannot possibly be,
come law this session. Probably the
bill providing, in effect, for additional
currency for the South and West, may
get through, as il is understood il will
receive the signature OF the presen,
Executive.
The constitutional amendment, known
as the fifteenth, it is thought, will also
be adopted, in some form--probably 10
that Recommended by the Judiciary
Committee Of the Senate and already
passed BY that body It seems TO be
conceded, at least 10 Radical quarters
that il viii not be necessary to submit
this joint resolution to the Executive
for approval. Tho only difference be
tween the views Of the House and Sen.
ate is upon the point Of negro eligibility
to office. as well as the right to vote.
II is understood that President John
son viii take no part in tho ceremonies
Of the inauguration, and will vacate the

as soon as possible for his homa in Ten
