TWO FIEInFARES

Far away in Germany, on the banks of
the great river Danube, there once lived
poor wood cutter He had one little boy.
who used sometimes to help him in split
ting wood, but more often his father would
send him to gather juniper berries, which
he then Sold AS he went to and fro from
the spot where he sought the berries, he
had to pass school house, full of BOYS of
his own age, and he would put down his
basket and listen a minute to the hum of
busy voices within. Alas! the poor boy
could neither read nor write; his father
was too poor to pay for schooling but to
learn was the wish of his heart "Oh, if I
could be but one of them ' he would say
she peeped in. "Never would l be care
less-never play truant; I would learn
with my whole heart and soul"
Such were his thoughts day after day;
when, one morning, he saw amongst the
juniper bushes two of these boys setting
trap for fieldfares birds of the thrush
kind and heard them say their master was
very fond of them. The poor bows heart
trembled at the new idea which occurred
to him, and which he lost no time in carry
ing out. He knew how to make capital
trap. 1t was soon done; and the next NOR
ming, when he came eagerly to look, there
were two fieldfares in it. He put them in
his basket, and went straight to the school.
master. Please, sir, he said bashfully-
for he did not know how to begin" here
are some feldfares."
The master looked kindly at him, but
seemed rather surprised. "Thank you, my
son, but what do you charge for them q"
Nothing, SIR"
Nothinga" repeated the master. "Nay
l am sure you are much too poor to make
presents for nothing. What shall pay you9
or is there anything else can do for you Z"
"Oh, sir, good, kind sir" cried the boy,
teach me to, read, teach me to read !''
and he fell on his knees in an agony of sup.
plication.
Tears came into the good masters eyes!
such an appeal would have melted much
harder heart than his; and besides, boy
who really wanted to, learn, how rare a
thing! and what pleasure it would be to
teach him!
"Well, well, my boy, we will see about it,"
he said; and after little more talk it was
arranged when he. was to come to begin
the coveted lesson.
The boys gratitude knew no bounds nor
did his instructor ever repent the day he
took the poor child in to be taught for
nothing. More credit from this pupil than
from all he ever taught besides. His abil-
tiles were great; he rose rapidly, and enter
ed the Christian ministry.
But never did he forget the debt he
owed under God to the fieldfares. He
took for his device two of these birds, with
the words written over, cart not two
sparrows sold for five farthings9 and not
one of them is forgotten before Cod" and
he loved to point it out to his friends, and
to tell them the story of his early life. He
acknowledged that it was Gods hand
which, by means of the fieldfares, had raj
sed him from poverty to position and
usefulness.

bonds, as declared in the platform of the
Ohio Democracy. (Applause.) 1 am not
going to discuss the question of taxation
OF banks in Ohio. 1t would make no diff
ference if the banks transacted and carried
on their business by Treasury notes direct,
instead of these bank notes that are secured
by bonds. In that event they would pay,
no doubt, as much tax. The national
banks may suit, if you please, but let them
not deal in paper secured by the govern
ment bonds, but in paper issued by the
government direct. Let them become
banks of deposit and banks of exchange,
instead OF banks of issue, and they would
| pay as much interest into the National
and State treasures as the present sys-
tenn provides for, and at the same time
save large amount of interest paid out.
The people OF this country are oppressed by
the mode to which I referred little while
ago by the tariff. During the war advan-
tage was taken Of the people to enact sys-
tenn OF tariff laws such as never would have
been tried in former days. 1t is most ex
travagant in its provisions, and most op
pressive to the masses of the people. 1t
taxes one class of industry in the country
for the fostering of another and protecting
another class.
l think we must have tariff. A nor
ton Of our revenue can we'll enough be col
lected by the tariff; but the tariff that taxes
goods imported into this country from
abroad ought to be levied with a view to
revenue and not protection. AS 1 said, we
are collecting far more tariff than is suffi-
cient to pay the interest on the national
debt, and gold is accommodating in the
Treasury, and that for the purpose of fur
nishing this peculiar protection to special
interests, am not in favor of such legisla-
ton. You are willing to pay taxes suffi-
cient to meet the expenses of the govern
ment administered economically, but I
don't think the West ought to be expec-
ted to pay great taxes in the interest of
manufacturing and other pursuits. One of
the greatest writer's of modern times in the
history of civilization in England, has said
OF this subject of tariff protection, that it
IS "bounties to raise up losing trade, and
it is taxes to pull down remunerative ones"
He has also said, "the industrious classes
were robbed that industry might thrive"
That is the effect of it. One class, one in
terest, is taxed oppressively, that other in
terests may be made to yield especial and
large profits. 1t is the interest of the peo-
pie of the Northwest to elect such men to
Congress and as Governors of the States
who will express their opinions faithfully
and ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS all monopohes and
tavoritlsms in this country. 1t is duty
devolving upon the people of this country
to rid it of the extravaganza, waste and
that now prevail. What
party will you rely on for this purpose a.
The party that has been in power when
these things have been brought upon the

A HANDSOME REQUEST FOR THE SoUrB

A HANDSOME BEqUEsT FOR THE SOUTH.
The following is the codicil of the will
of the late Caleb Dorsey, Esq, of Howard
county, Md, making charitable bequest
for the benefit of Southern people. The
codicil bears date August 10, 1869:
II give and bequeath $4,000 to my
brother, Reuben M Dorsey, and Gov. T. W
Lyon, in special trust, to apply the same
to the relief of such portions of the late
slave holding States of this Union as the

A LIVELY CENTENARIAN.-Mrs. Angel
inc Podesta, who is we'll advanced toward
her hundred and first year, led the grand
march at the Italian ball at Mozart Hall,
i'll Cincinnati, on Monday night, and dan
ced ten sets besides. We saw Mrs. Podes-
ia after she had performed this feat. Her
grip was like that of blacksmith, her eve
was clear es an eagles, and her face, with
its strongly marked features, showed no
signs of fatigue. She is truly a wonderful
old lady. Born on the 9th of January,
1850, in Italy, she has passed through scenes
such as it has been vouchsafed to few
living mortals to behold Let any of our
readers run over in memory the history
of Italy from ITO to 1S47, when Mrs. Pod
esta came to America, and the history of
our country since that time, and they will
comprehend what thrilling experiences are
laid up in the old ladys memory, still clear
and vigorous as it is. She looked on
Monday night as if she might live another
half century, if she did not witness the
first of the year 200.- Cincinnati Gazette.
