A Democratic candidate for the Georgia
Seuate insisted, in recent speech In Allan.
ia, that every Democrat who has colored
man In his employ, or who otherwise holds
an obligation" over solored man, should
put Democratic ticket In that mans
hands, and 60 with him to the polls and see
that it Is deposited. Probably that same
Democrat is very violent in bis denuncaa-
ton of the pretended .'use OF the military
to control elections" and extremely earnest
in his denial that President Grant had
grounds for tho assertion In his message
that free exercise of the elective franchise
has, by violence and intimidation, been
denied TO citizens, in exceptional cases, IN
several of the States lately in rebellion.

The oldest stove probably in the United
States, 10 the one which warns the hall Of
Virginia's capitol. in Richmond. 1t was
made i'll England and sent to Richmond in
l77O, and warmed the House of Burgesses
for sixty years before il was removed to the
present location, where IL has been for
thirty years. 1t has survived three British
monarshs; has been csntemporaneous with
three monarchies, two republics and two
imperial governments Of France. The
great Republic of America has been torn BY
internal strife, the breaches partly healed
and still the old stove remains unmoved IN
the midst Of all.

Mark Twain writes the following answer
to correspondent: Young Authorizes,
Agassiz does recommend authors to eat fish,
because the PHOSPHORUS in it makes brains.
SO far you are correct. But .can not help
you to decision about the amount you
need to eat-at least, not with certainty. II
the specimen composition you send is about
haps a couple Of whales would be all you
would want for the present. Not the
largest kind, but simply good middlins

The editor of the Cleveland Her0ld wac
once a postmaster, and knows something Of
the circumlocut0ry distractions, abuses and
bungling Of the administration of that de-
pertinent. He exhibits, too, disposition
that should be encouraged, to tell what he
knows. Here is one Of his experiences, de-
tailed in recent issue: "Wishing some
postoffice blanks of pattern differing from
those furnished, we stated our wishes to the
old seed who had charge of the blanks, and
showed him the alteration necessary. He
looked through his specs at the blank, then
over his specs at us, then looked into va
cancy, SO ~ to concentrate his ideas, and
remarked, Why, those blanks are printed
just as they have been for forty years past;
we can't change them" There was OBJ
vioSsly no getting over that argument, and
the blanks will be printed in the Same way,
we suppose, TOR forty years to come.

texts, chose to rebel and establish . confed-

A Political Call.

To The Native Union Men ofMc SouM ::
After consultation with many OF
the native original Union men of the
South, it has been deemed advisable
to call q meeting of such at the city
of Knoxville, Tennessee, on the first
day of November next.
The main object of this conference
is to consult upon the present condi-
tioh. of the country, and to take into
consideration the rights If those who
during the late civil war were true to
Constitution and to tho Union. 1t is
not called in tho interest of any parti-
cnlar party, or for any special party
purpose. Hence all who were Union
men are respectfully invited to meet
us on that occasion.
Amongst the subjects which will be
brought to the attention of the meet
ing will be something like tho follow
ing platform Of principles:
|. TO accept in good faith the four
teonth and Fifteenth amendm ents to
the Constitution Of tho United States
rs the final settlement of tho status
of the African race.
2. Universal amnesty, and the res
toration to every man of the civil and
political rights which he enjoyed bo-
fore the war.
5. Equality and uniformity in taxa
ton, so that every section shall pay
its proportionable part; that no in
tercst shall be charged with more than
its just proportion.
d. Compensation to loyal men in
the South for property taken for the
use Of tho Government during the
war; and the payment of all claims
due citizens Of the South for services
rendered prior to the war.
5 Payment Of the public debt ac-
cordiug to contract, and as speedily as
IS consistent with due regard for the
interests Of the people aud fair and
equitable distribution of the banking
capital in the South and West.
6. The repeal or modification of
the oath of Office rs prescribed by the
act of July I'd, 1863.
T. That all who are required to
discharge the duties of citizens are
entitled to all the rights and privi-
leges Of citizens.
1t is desirable that every State in
the South should Be represented in
the meeting. t1'*."' -"

Kit Carson; on the line Of the KAN
sas Pacific railroad, says the Missouri
Republican, mus! be alivcly place. 1t
is told lhata minister stopped there some
time since, and, intending to try and
reform it, he wns furnished money and
tracts by some benevolent gentlemen
and started protracted meeting. In
a few days, however, Tie became disgust.
ed, and, going to a gambling. house, lost
all the money left the town, and has
not since been seen. The story is very
likely to be true, Judging from a discrip.
ton Of the place from whrch the follow.
is taken:
All we have to say OF Kit Carson 1s,
that il any one wishes to see wickedncss
and corruption in their most horri.
bic and revqltinS form, here Is the place
to visit. Wehave heard Of gambling
drinking and numbering, but here yoh
may witness all the vices and llellishness
OF the human heart enacted and Illus.
trated every day. 1t is Perfect "Hell
on earth" Men arc shot ana killed
almost every night. Dance. houses, fun
OF diseased and filthy women-somo
Mexican, some Indian, some Amcrcah
carrying on their vocation amid
scenes OF dissipation and crime perfectly
appalling. This f6r7akcn place Is in the
sandy plain or desert, with not sin:
gle tree in s,ght,-wiLh nothing along
the whole sweep Of the horizon but I
a bohndcss waste of barreuness and
dcSsulation.
Thisi ono extreme, and tho town
OF Greeley presents another. It is dc.
scribcd ''as community Of some ak
hundred enthusiasts who are laborious
ly dilch:ng, dlgeine, and fer,ilizing 4

rlons than chp OF mNllen. stalks rah
be expected before the middle of the
next century. They point with pride
to Il ''park' in which the trees tower
up like so many riding whips. Fields
without the luxury OF fence weed, or
sprar of grass, are a melancholy evi.
dence OF what the town Of Gresley
don't know about farming" We
doubt if there is exaggcration about
either description. But ten years will
discover mighty change through alt
OF The great West lying near the rail-
road though there will doubtless still ba
immense room for Improvement.

KNIVES AND FoRKs.--Powdered
charcoal is tho the best thing to use
in securing knives and forks, as it will
not wear them out near 80 fast brick
or dust, which is most commonly tsed.
A small, tine.grained, portable grind
stone would be o nice thing for Biddy
to have in tho kitchen, it would whifl
the grim Of the knives IN double quick
but the forks are among the iihpracti-
cables, and render the prucess Q Of
securing by such mesns insufficient
