| newed capacity for progress, influence,
and happiness. If there was any intoxi-
cation, it was very different indeed from
that of drunkenness; as far removed
from it as the inspirations of the poet from
the Authorizations Of lunatic Seeing
what others do on such occasions, the
sobriety, and orderly, dignified behavior
of the colored people on the occasion OF a
celebration so justly joyous to them, must
be set down as greatly to their credit
They behaved nobly.
1t is matter in which the intelligent
public may well and heartily rejoice, that
the negroes held this celebration of their
practical emancipation from injustice and
oppression. 1t was an opportunity for the
public to judge of the men whom the
public had long condemned, and the result
of the good and creditable conduct OF the
negroes is that they have won the respect
of thousands who never respected them
before. There are thousands in Chicago,
hundreds of thousands in the country who
have witnessed similar celebrations, who
at last firmly believe that the blacks nave
rights which the white men are bound 70
respect, and who now, If never before,
stoutly affirm that the colored troops
fought nobly,
That they will continue to fight nobly

dom and the goodness and wisdom of Him

Caution.-Audacious Counterfeit!

The reputation which, for many years, has at
tached to "Hostetter's Stomach Bltters, as the
STANDARD Tonic OF THE AGE, and the large de-
mand for the article not only in the United States,
but elsewhere, have provoked the cupld1ty OF the
CONTEMPLATING TRIBE, and it has been extensive
ly SIMULATED and INITIATED by INSCRIPTIONS
sharpers.
The most daring counterfeit of said article,
which has been attempted, has recently come to
our knowledge. The engraved steel label on bot
ties containing the genuine bitters. with Its beaut
full vignette of st. George and the dragon, Its
shield, containing warning against counterfeiters,
and its note of hand for lone cent? at the foot,
signed with our firm NAME has been copied SO
closely that the fraud can only be detected on a
minute inspection. The dark label Is also well
counterfeited, and the working on both the lmlta-
ton and genuine precisely the same the differ
eHce being simply in the execution OF the work
that OF the imitation being somewhat co0rSeT than
the genuine. Other counterfeits are on the mar
ket, which are in all particulars the same as de-
scribed above, with the exception OF slight diff
ference in the spelling of our name
In addition to the above, these connterfelters
have gone so far in some instances as to place
strip of paper over the cork and fasten to the neck
of the bottle, on which is vignette, and other

of orr proprietary u. s. Revenue stamp, bat upon
inspection will disclose the absence OF the figure

with additional wording, appear on our genuine

The Disintegrating Democracy.

THE Democracy of Wisconsin furnish
a striking illustration that the way of the
transgressor is hard. All efforts to har-
monte the broken fragments of the party
have so far ended in complete failure.
Each county and village has its local
great men, whose entire platform consist
in an undoubting belief in themselves, and
profound disbelief in any one else. Small
jealousies, petty chickering's, and little dis
putes, and an ambition to be head of
faction which scarcely counts as scatter
ing" on the poll list of most places, is the
great characteristic of the harmonious"
The supreme JUNCTION with which one of
these gentlemen announces that he has
"always been Democrat" when the war
or reconstruction acts are discussed, would
furnish Nasty theme worthy of his pen,
and is a great EXETER of the. risible muscles
of the face.
Like the Bourbons during the french
Revolution, these men will never learn
anything. To their minds, the world has
stood still for the past ten Years, and they
are patiently waiting to see it reverse its
revolutions, and turn back in it's course
Their prophecies and their prophets have
been alike at fault. The resistless march
of events, and the completeness of the
great revolution, have made no impress
sion on theiriminds and they are still look
ing for Second Slavery Advent, when
they can put on their robes and ascend
into the high places in the Government,
over the cause which freedom has won
and consecrated. The slightest success in
the election of town officer inspires
their enthusiasm, and they build air cas-
ties on such an event that reach the skies.
Meanwhile the great Republican party
maintains tits solid front to the floating
fragments of the Democratic wreck. It
is moved by an Inspiration that knows no
faltering, and no breaks are visible in it's
massive line. On questions of principle,
its organization is unit; on those of
mere detail, it gives the largest liberty of
thought and discussion; and it's public
men are thoroughly agreed as to the gen.
eral purpose of the party, and the scope
of all its great measures. While these
things are so, what hope can disorganiza-
ton have of successful competition in the
political race? On what plea could it
hope to gain the public ear, or entice
voters to its ranks? All efforts of the
kind have been futile, and the prospects
ahead are even worse than in the past

What Is Thought of the Surprise Oats
at the East.

MYRoN F. GowpY, of Someryille, Conn.,,
writes as follows to the Neao England
homestead:
Three years ago friend of mine in Chi
cago sent me direct from M. G. FL. Van
Olinda, the originator, a little bag con-
tanning one pint of Surprise Oats, accom-
panied by circular setting forth their
superiority over the common oats, which
was that they would yield more, ripen
earlier, and were heavier than any other
known variety He claimed that they
would yield 1873 bushels per acre; would
weigh 40 pounds to the bushel, and ripen
three weeks sooner than common oats. AT
first thought it all h1ns6ug, or that the
statement was immensely exaggerated, but
soon Iput aside my prejudice and exer-
cised my reason like sensible man. l
here had a sample of oats that l knew
were vastly superior to any other that l
ever saw, but with me the question was,
can such oats be grown on common soil
without special effort; nothing short
of fair trial would solve the ques-
ton to my satisfaction. sowed them up
on about one square rod of ground, Civ
ing the soil the same preparation as for
the common variety, and sowed them at
| about the same time. On the Sth of July
l harvested one-half bushel that weighed
twenty pounds. The next year, 1868, the
oat crop was very light,-common oats
would weigh scarcely twenty five pounds
per bushel. The Surprise Oats weighed
thirty nine. Last year, the yield
of this variety was exceedingly album
dant, the weight forty-one pounds per
bushel. Compared with common oats,
the soil and culture being the same, they
will yield three bushels to their two, and
will weigh fully one-third more, thus Civ
ing twice the number of pounds per acre.
l have never sown them on land ex-
ceedingly fertile for the purpose of secur-
ing an enormous yield, to use the account
of which as an advertisement. My object
has been to see if they were superior va
riety for practical culture.
On soil that is capable of producing
thirty bushels of corn per acre with a
good handful of ashes in the hill, these
oats will yield from fifty to sixty bushels
per acre, without the aid of any manure
or fertilizer whatever. They are white
oat, exceedingly plump and large and
very early, an Important consideration, as
they are less liable tobe injured by storms
and less likely to rust. In these respects I
consider them greatly superior to the
Norway, which ripen about week later
than the common oats, believe. am
fully satisfied that the Surprise Oats are
not all hatnbug, nor am | alone in this
opinion, as l am supplying seed to my
neighbors at the rate of So 90 per measured
bushel, warranted to weigh forty-one

And the Colored Troops Fought Nobly.

THE celebration at Chicago, on yester-
day, by the colored people, Of the ratifca-
ton of the Fifteenth Amendment to the
Constitution, was an event worthy of
note on many accounts. 1t is certainly
true that the procession during the day
was marked success. The thousands
who witnessed it will agree that there
have been few more imposing displays in
Chicago. Everything that ought to have
been done was done, so far as the public
could perceive. Nothing seemed to be
lacking The civic display and the mill
tary display were exceedingly well got up,
and appropriate to the occasion. If those
forming the procession had been white
men, they could not have done better than
was done and white men have frequent
ly, on like jubilant occasions, done a great
deal worse
Of the proceedings at the hall we need
not speak at length. They were creditable
throughout. The negroes did their part
with great and acknowledged success, and
even eclat. The meeting, last evening,
was great deal more interesting, instruct
i've, and orderly than any Democratic
meeting of the past fifteen years which we
can now recall to mind.
But the particular point in this cclebra-
ZION Dy the negroes to which we desire to
call the special attention of the public is
the fact that good order and perfect So
briefly characterized the day, so far as
those engaged in the celebration were
concerned. There was no more drunken
ness in Chicago on the negroes Fourth of
July than on any other day. If men will
recall the last "great day" the Chicago
Democracy have had-the day of Horatio
'Seymour's speech in 1S6S-and compare
this with that, they will form very favor
able opinion of the good conduct of the
newly enfranchised citizens. If there
ever was an occasion--which there never
was--when men would be UNSUITABLE for
hilarious and extrayagant behavior result
ing IRON the drinking of healths, it was
TINS when the negroes celebrated their ex-
oous from the land of political bondage,
and their safe arrival in sphere so much
better and brighter that they might seem

a Few objections for conscience's sake
Near these two passed a couple of young
sters of twelve years. They were looking
into a tobacco shop close by, and one cried
out to the other:
{" BY the piper! I'd like to smoke sous
worth of tobacco"
"Well," said the other, buy sous
worth"
