How TO GET A HousEK EEPER- The
Springfield Republican has the following
as having occurred in this county: A
young widower in Windham county,
greatly in need of housekeeper, rode
day after day in vain search for a hired
girl. At last, almost discouraged, he
drew up in front of small dwelling
among the hill S, and asked the custom
airy question; "Cln you tell me where |
can get woman to do the work in
farm house? ?" "Where are we from ?"
asked tne old man, viewing the hand
some horse and buggy with a critical
air. "My name is, and am from
-" ooh, yes! I've heard of you
you lost your wife spell ago. Wall,
I've got six gals good gals, too, and
you may take your pick among 'em for
a wife but they wouldn't none of 'em
think Of going out ter work. l should
full as lives you should take Hannah, be-
cause she's the oldest, and her chance
amt quite so good, seein' as she's nigh
sighted, and can't hear very well but if
you don't want her, you can take your
pick of the Others" Our friend went in,
selected the best looking one, drove to
the Justices and was married, and car
ried his bride home that very night, hav-
ing secured permanent and efficient
housekeeper, who proves thus far in ev-
cry way satisfactory, with no question of
wages, and no limit to the work she is
expected to do.

DAYTON, June 20.
The following letter from Chief Justice
Chase was received by the late G. &.
Vallandigham few days after the pro-
mitigation of the famous new departure
resolution:
WASHINGTON, May 20.
My Dear Sir;-I have just read the
resolutions of the Montgomery, Ohio,
Democratic Convention, reported by
yourself, together with yolr remarks and
those of Mr.. Hanks. You have render
ed great service to your country and par
ty; at least such is my judgment. May
God bless you for it, Nothing can be
truer than your declaration, that the
movement contemplated by the resolu-
tions is the restoration Of the Democrat
ic party TO its ancient platform of pro-
gress and reform. | know you too well to
doubt your courage or your fidelity to
your convictions.
Very truly yours,
s. r. CHASE.

AN ANTEDILuvIAN DEMoCRAT.-Ot

AN ANTEDILUyIAN Democratic
err democrats may depart if they want to
but Asa Packer of Mauch Chunk in the
State of Pennsylvania wishes it to be I'M
derstood that he is not going to follow
them. He reads his Bible, Packer does,
and finds in it an Injunction to ask for
the old paths and walk therein, which he
proposes to obey. He speaks of the new
departure as "palpable fraud" Pack
er should remember, however that there
is great difference in paths. There is
one rather broad path which leadeth un-
to death, and if a man or party is tray
cling this path, a new departure cannot
be taken too soon. In his present atti-
tude, Packer reminds us of Noah's re-
spectacle neighbors who shook their
wise old heads over his insane mania for
ship-building, and very likely canvassed
the propriety of getting out writ de
lunatico and having guardians appointed
to look after his property. When even
the most conservative of the antediluvi-
an newspapers were forced to admit that
1t had apparently set in for a steady rain,
these old gentlemen experienced decid-
ed change Of opinion ON the ark ques-
ton. But it was quite too late in the
day for them TO engage passage. We
hope that the estimable Packer will be
wiser in his generation than they were in
theirs.-Springietd Republican.
