LANCASTER OHIO MARCH TO- 1870. Establis
Ny wife Is a very smart woman

My vile is q very smart woman.
She was Baxter, and the Bax,
ters are very smart family, in
bdeed. Her mother, who is going
on eighty, can fry moro slapjacks
now, than half these primpcd up
city girls, who rattle on The piano,
or else walk the street with their
furbclows and fixings, pretending
TO get mad if a young chap looks
tat 'em pretty bard, but getting
mad in earnest If you don't take
any notice Of them at all.
Ab the girls amt what they
used to be when l was young, and
the fellows are worse still. When
l went courtiDg, for instance, /.
never thought OF staying till after
ten o'clock, and only twice a week.
Now they go seven nights in q
week, and cry because there amt
eight. They write touching notes
ITO each other during the day
s1"Dear George, do you love nla a.
much now as you did at quarter
past twelve last night? Say you
do, and it will give me courage 10

cold beans, left over from yester.
day"
Woll, well, l suppose they en-
joy themselves. Let them get to-
gethor and court, if they like it,
and | think they do. was forty
seven when l courted my present
wife; but it seemed just US nice TO
sit on little stool at her feet, and
let her smooth my hair, as it did
thirty years ago.
As | said before, my wife is II
very smart woman; but she couldn't
be anything else and be Baxter.
She used to give lectures on Wo.
mans Rights, and iD one place
where she lectured, big college
conferred. tho tit e1f l.. l.. D. upon
her. But she wouldn't take it,
"No, gentlemen" she said, "give il
to the poor" She was always just
so charitable. She gave my boys
permission TO go barefooted all
winter, and insisted on it so much
in her kind way, that they couldn't
refuse.
She fairly dotted on my children
and I've seen her many q time &C
to their trowser's pockets and take
out their pennies, after they had
got to sleep, and put them in hel
bureau drawer, for fear they might
lose them. x X y
| started to tell you about my
y wife's bridal tour; but the fact Is,
never could find out much about
it myself. 1 believe she had 0
good time. Sho came back i'm
proved in health; and | found out
before she'd been in the housetwen
ty four hours, that she'd gained il
strength also. l don't say how
found it out. Isimply say | founc
it out.
In conclusion, l would say to al
young men-marry your seconc
wife first, and keep out of debt by
all means --eyon you have to bor
row money to do it.

California paper relates the follow

A Dutchman left Austin for
White Pine with something less

finding a good claim, he took big
disgust, and left tor Austin. carry

On his way home a man driving
an empty wagon overlook him
and seeing him so heavily loaded

The Child of the Period.

"Now papa, tel! me a. story,
or the kind love so WE'LL"
Came the voice of my little daughter,
My darling, bright-eyed Nell
"Come to mo the my Pretty,
And tell me what 1t shall be-"
And with laugh Ikea merry tinkle,
She bounded on my knee.
And told her Of sold Mother Morey,"
"Dame Trot," and "Little Boy lue,"
"Red Riding Hood ana her Grandma the r,
And "Jackey Horner," too.
sang her "song of sixpence,"
And sang her "Bag of Rye"
But ailed to interest her,
And she began cry.
"Oh,. why do you weep, my Nelliei
My daughter, so good and mild"
And she s0bbed, "Such stories rs these ma
do
For others, but not for this c.:ild!"
So then told her the story
OF the boy who, in little bits,
Chopped up his mother, and frightened
His young sister INTO fits.
And how on the broad Atlantic,
When the angry tempest roared,
He slaughtered the crew and captain,
Aud pitched them overheard.
And how he became pirate
Upon the Spanish main
And she clappcd her little hands,
And asked me TO tell II again

NINE THOJ san D MILLION FOR
WHITE SLAVERY.

Commissioner Wells in his IA,
port to Congress, estimates tic
cost, TO the people Of the United
States, OF turning Sambo loose,
at over nine HoWsand miiiiOns Of
doilars' After giving these stag
gcring figures, he says:
This was the cost Of the dcs.
truction of slavery-thc cost oil
comprehensive cost of the I'm
f~aithfulness Of those who founded
this nation to the idea by which
the nation lives. What docs il
measure: 1t is substantially a
thousand millions q year for nine
wears or, at the wages of five
hundred q year, the labor Of two
millions OF men cXcrtcd coutiuu.
ously during the whole Of that
period. 1t is five times as much
as the slave property of the coun.
try was ever worth. 1t is q sum
which. at interest, would yield to
the end of time twice rs much as
the annual slave product Of the
South in its best estate"
Rather say this was the cost of
turning the negro out into unpro.
ductive idleness-into paupcrism.
crime and barbarism. Or, il was
the cost Of i'm poverishing the
white man, and overthrowing his
liberty and civilization. Or. il
was the cost Of fixing a party of
swindlers, thieves and superhu.
man vagabonds in power. But
this High Priest of Grants negro
party sneers at "the unfaithiul.
ness of those who "founded this
nation"-thatis is, Washington, JEFF.
rerson, Hancock, Ellsworth. Pat
rick Henry and Lee. These are
the 'unfaithful'' men, while such
incomprehensible dolts or rascals
as old John Brown, Thad Stephens,
Wendell Phillips, Ben Butler and
Ben Wade, are faithful ones. God

For som time past an effort
has been made by the authorities
to lease SANTANA bay, and a short
time since, by instructions from
the President, a portion OF the
Gulf Squadron sailed in and took
possession in the name of the
United States. This was rather a
high handed act, since no treaty
had been made for the possession
Of the place. The terms agreed
upon are understood to be one
hundred and fifty thousand dol
lars in gold to be paid annually,
Tor the use Of the bay Of SANTANA,
reckoned in tic currency Of that
country, where gold rates at L..
OOO, 1t is SGOO,OO0, OOO. One hun
dred and fifty thousand dollars in
gold. Tor fifty years, is a tolcrabIy
large transaction, anti should re-
ccivc the scrutiny o! the Senate,
when the treaty comes be,
fore il Tor confirmation
and if confirmed, the rca-
sons should then be given to
the country, who must pay the
seven and a half millions of dol
lars, We begin TO lose hope that
Congress will give public notice
TO the world at large, that the Uni.
ted States will not engage in any
more real estate transactions for
a term of years. That is what
ought to be done, but We fear will
not.

Yankee ingenuity is equal to
almost every achievement. We
saw last night in the book store of

and beautiful little invention lately
introduced in this city by Mr.. Geo,
Smith, gas filter. 1t is Il revolving
gus burner. 1t is made of glass.
Through a glas, bowl, to which are
short burners, runs a spiral glass
tube, surmounted by a winged Gu
pid, carrying in his hands flaming
torches. The passage Of the gas
through this spiral tube causes the
whole thing to constantly rcvolve,
enwrapped in its rapid rcvo-
luton by a sheet Of flame.

Immigrants HoME.-We are glad
to sec that the lIERALps suggcs-
ton for an Immigrants Home has
been acted upon and credit IS due
the City Council who, with the
hearty cooperation of orr worthy
Mayor Swift, have appointed a
committee to select a suitable
bnilding for said purpose. II is iu-
tended TO have everything made
comfortable and also TO have those
in charge who can speak the Ian.
guagc Of the foreigners coming
here. Every assistance in procur-
ing homes and labor will be offered
the immigrant and they will be
duly cared for until otherwise pro.
vided for.
We hope the authorities will
thoroughly perform the good work
they have undertaken. If proper
ly carried out they will deserve
praise for their %prOmptness and lib
erality and do much towards I'D.
vancing the city's and cOunty's
prosperity.
