TUE people Of New York are settling with
the Tammany ring in their own way. The
democratic party are resolved to purge them
selves Of the corrupt men who have used
the honored organization to enrich them~
selves and bring scandal and reproach on the
PARTY. The leaders of the refor m movement,
Samuel }. Tilden. chairman of the demo-
cratic central committee, Andrew H. Green.
and ex Mayor Havemeyer. are all democrats.
They will purge the party in New York of
its Tammany plunderers. preserve its politi-
cal usefulness, and lead it on to victory
But we in Pennsylvania may cry Tammanv,
Tammany, until the morrow of the election
without rendering the slightest assistance to
the citizens of New York. Neither advice,
sympathy nor assistance is sought of us
There is an Indian ring in Pennsylvania who
require all the attention her citizens can be-
stow. That ring have possession of the
treasury and are now using its power to Sc
cure the election of Doctor Stanton aud a
radical Legislature. With the money of the
people they are purchasing the represents
tives of the people and poisoning the very
fountain of political life in Pennsylvania
The part of wisdom, therefore, is to check
the corrupt power of the Indian ring in this
State without constantly initiating them in
bawling Tammany, Tammany They cry
Tammany to divert public attention from
their own jobs The people of Pennsylva>
MIA will be foolish to initiate their parrot cry
while they are gorging themselves with the
money OF the.treasury.-Harris6urg Patriot.

The fences of the United States cost
more than the houses, cities included: more
than the ships. vessels and boats of every
description which sail on the ocean, lake and
rivers; more than our manufactures, with
all their machinery, and more than any one
class OF property. real estate excepted =
Those of New York are put down at SI44,-
600 900; those of Ohio at Sis. 900 600
and Pennsylvania at $40, ,O0O. 900. At this
rate the money invested in fences alone is
more than equal to the national debt. As
fences require to be renewed. on an average,
once IN ten years, the annual cost tc the
country is not far short of $500. 900 900.

In politics as well as in war it is always
safe, indeed necessary rule, never to under
estimate the strength of your opponent.
This being the case, the Importance of poll
ing full Democratic vote in every election
district becomes apparent, and surely we
need waste no time in impressing this self
evident truth upon our Democratic friends
If this duty is properly attended to, the
prospects of electing the Democratic State
ticket were never better. One thing is very
certain, and that is if the adm tilted frauds
heretofore committed by the Radicals under
the Infamous Registry law as applicable to
Philadelphia can he prevented. aud fair
count of the votes put in the ballot boxes
can be had. the result in the State does not
admit of any doubt.

around and resumed conversation. He said,
apparently resumng a conversation where
he had left it shortly before: at is the
most disgraceful administration that
ever was witnessed in civilized country.

must be change or there will be revolution.
Why, through his congressman and Cffice

here in Wisconsin, and as you will see he
will, next week, in New Jersey and Mary
land, when Republican conventions are to
meet there. Your man Washhurn has been
placed on the track through these detestable
Influences" Hence it occurred to Colonel
Kershaw that he was becoming the recipient
of confidence not intended for him, and he
stated to Mr.. Greeley that probably his re-
marks were interded for another man. The
philosopher stared blankly over his specta-
cles with air that was childlike and

The Mason and Hamlin Cabinet Organs.
Ten Thousand Organs Year.

The Mason and Hamlin Organ Company
have recently purchased two acres OF land IN
Cambridgeport, and erected another factory
for the making of their various styles of or
gans. The Grand Junction Railway, which
connects the several railroads running into
Boston, passes just in the rear OF their Cam
bridgeport lot, and will lay down all the ma
terials used in their business at their door,
and so obviate the expense of carriage.
The Mason and Hamlin Company have
hitherto produced more Cabinet Organs than
any other manufactures in the world, and
more than double the number produced by
any other manufacturer in this country. But
the demand for their instruments has been
so great, that at no time for several years
have thew been able to fill their orders. With
the increased facilities which their new fac
tory will afford them, they can turn out Two
hundred instruments every week, or more
than ten thousand a year-enough, one would
suppose, to supply the whole world. -.
The Mason and Hamlin organs have In
creased in excellence as rapidly as IN num-
bers. Each year some marked improvement
has been made in style or quality. Sclentlhc
experiment and skilled workmanship have
combined to make better what was at hrsf
very good, until now these organs have
very enviable reputation in Europe not less
than in America, and are in large demand
there as we'll as here. But the Company are
not yet satisfied. Only this year, June II
and August %, they procured patents for I'M
provements which experts pronounce very
important, and which will undoubtedly add
largely to the value and desirableness OF
these favorite ;nstruments.-Eve1yS Saturday.

Lost in the WoOds-Six Days Without
Food. ~@t5 ."s+

From the Traverse Bay (Mich.) Eagle, Dec. l6.
Three or four weeks ago a man by the
name of VIM. Enghelson got lost in the
woods near Green Lake, in Benzie coun-
ty, and wandered about without food for
six days. He was lost on Saturday, and
wandered up and down the. country
without matches to make fire or the
slightest thing to eat, until Friday, when
he came to the river, and followed along
the bank until he came to the shanty
Mr.. Marble, which he broke into, and
found some salt pork and quantity of
-four. He ate about pound and a half
of raw pork, then built a fire, filed a
kettle with water, stirred in some flour
making kind of porridge, of which
he ate very heartily, and then rolled
himself up in blankets and went to sleep.
At night Mr.. Marble came, and found
him in stupid state, and after arousing
him and finding out the trouble, baked
him some biscuits. Upon examining
his feet it was found that they had been
frozen and were black, and his legs were
badly bruised by rambling through the
brush. He was taken to Frankfort, and
is in pitiable condition. His legs are
badly swollen, and the skin on the bot
tom of his feet is entirely off. He will
lose all his toes, and viii be fortunate if
his feet do not require amputation. The
Frankfort Express, from which paperwe
get these facts, says the poor fellow is
Unconscious of all that TRANSFERRED after
Monday night till he. found himself in
the trapper's camp. He is from Hol-
land, Cheboygan county, Mich.

r, w. Emerson ON Good Manners.

| The following is brief abstract of
Mr.. Emerson's excellent lecture on self
culture 81 A y Z
| The importance Of fine and culti-
I waited manners cannot be over-estimated.
Such cultivation is to be obtained BY
association with those who are cuitl
waited, and we should properly consider
| the importance of securing such asso-
ciates for our children. Behavior is all
important. Posture should be studied.
An awkward man is graceful when
asleep, or when hard at work. When
our mind is occupied we naturally as
sume~a proper position. Great power
lies in the voice. One man, by his
tones, can animate regiment, while
another has no following power.
There is an immense difference be-
tween a heavy and. "a genial manner
The youth of America generally appear
hurried and i'll at ease, yet no life is so
short but there is always time for cour-
tesy. Perfect self.command is the best
of manners. The example of g. the
Quakers is commendable. They, when
sitting down at meals, spend a minute
or two in silent prayer. Such a course
prevents laughter and unseemly CONVEX
sation, and gives them an opportunity
to start their conversation anew from
advantageous ground. Manners are
great revealers of secrets. The changes
in ones experience are manifest in their
countenances, even if we are not al
ways subtle to understand them: A
lady loses much of her power when she
endeavors to express an undue admira-
ton for an object. Be temperate in our
approval an we shall be credited with
meaning what we express. Laughter is
to be avoided. E-
Lord Chesterfield said that after he
came to the years of understanding he
never laughed. About dress, no nation
dresses better than ours. !, A king Or
general does not need an elegant
coat to make himself known, neither
does man. of commanding person re-
quire. fine apparel. Proper companion
ship is indispensable. A man who
thinks we'll will incite another's thought.
No man can be master in conversation
I who has not talked with woman. Be-
ware of jokes, they are inestimable for
sauce, but poor for food. Of the senti-
mentalist he had considerable to say,
but little of commendatory nature.
Things said for conversation are chalk
eggs. Avoid talking shop or other for
hidden subjects before company. Again,
the great game is not to talk with those
who know less than ourselves, but rather
tilt with those who are wiser than our
selves. We shall then be overthrown
and learn true wisdom thereby.

Nutrition for the Brain.

Some time ago Prof Agassiz, in a
speech before Boston essemblage, as
serted that a fish diet, on account of the
quantity of PHOSPHORUS contained in
it, is especially adapted to nourish the
brain, and that those persons who sub
sist upon it largely are, consequently,
more likely than others; if possessing
the same natural powers, to be distin-
guished for their brightness and intel
lectuality. Prof. Agassiz is generally re-
garded as being, in such matters, the
highest authority in the United States,
if not the very highest living, and this
estimate is undoubtedly correct; but Dr.
G. M Beard, good scientific authority,
opposes the Professors theory, in an able
magazine article, arguing that brain
work requires richer and more substan-
tial food, and a larger quantity of it,
than mechanics and laboring men, be-
causea:' <S1fF" z Via v 4
First-Labor of the brain causes
greater loss of tissue than labor of the
muscles, three hours of hard study
producing more important changes of
tissue than whole day of muscular la
Dor. '~aS
Second-Brain workers, as a class,
are more active in their work than me-
chanics and laborers, the thinking pow
ers, the tools of trade of brain work
ers, being always at hand, and seldom
idle. "a IL
Third-Brain workers exercise, more
or less, all the other organs of the body
as well as the brain.
DR.. Beard, to corroborate his views,
cites various nationalities. For exam
pie, the Romans, Persians and Babylo-
mans were prominent nations among
the. ancients, and they were. free and
luxurious in their habits of eating. In
modern times, the English, Germans,
French and Americans are ruling ma
tons, and they are good feeders, and
some of them pretty hard drinkers.
So our brain workers have two theo-
ries before, them, and they can take
their choice. Shall it be fish or roast
beef etc
