So vivid was her description, so unearthly
her look, so inspired her manner that
what she described seemed actually to

KIOSernOt.

A travelling agent put up at a hotel,
and, having bundle of clothes that
needed the operation of the laundry, he
delivered them over to the washerwoman,
tied up with cord which had done ser
vice before in the same business, and had
upon it the name of the former possessor;
but, thinking that it was as good name
as any, he let them go, intending to claim
them by the assumed name. When they
came back from the wash, he presented
himself to the clerk and demanded his
clothes
Name, sir 2" asked the clerk.
Peter Johnson" was the prompt re-
ply.
No such name on the list"
ooh !-ah yes That is not the
name, | remember. It was another
mans name on the bundle p
What was the other mans name 2"
Well, it was-well, what was it?--
Hang me if l can tell" ,.I.
How, then, shall we know which one
is yours?" .
"Well hem that is the question
what was it ?"
Was it Jackson?" ......
No, it was not jackson"
Thompson ?"
No, nor any other son."
Well, if you assume fictitious name,
and can't remember it, l do not think it
is much matter whether you get your
clothes or not"
"Thats it that is it, sure p exclaim-
ed the hummer "That's it-Klosernot 4!
l knew it was no son! Klosernot--look
for Klosernot p
And he did look for it, found it, and
passed over the clothing to Klosernot,
alias Peter johnson.

INTENSELY RADICALLY the canvass now

INTENsELY RADICAL-In the canvass now
progressing in Virginia, the question of repudi-
alton comes in for share of discussion; and
it is at least amusing to read the theories and
arguments advanced by some of the supporters
of Reputation. The following circular is pub
lished in the Staunton Spectator by Ahithophel
Smith, a candidate for the House of Delegates.
The fact that it is published seriously and in
good faith, renders It the more absurd:
"I respectfully announce myself candidate
for the Legislature the House of Dele
gates. AS to my political principles, presume
It don't matter whether / am Conservative or
Radical, and shall say nothing on that sub
iect. The only question of interest nowadays
is reputation, and upon that am right. Isee
that some of the candidates in Rockingham are
for repudiating the State debt So far so good.
A candidate in Highland goes for repudiating
all debts, public and private, contracted before
April 10th, 1865. That is step further in the
right direction. But neither the Rockingham
lawyer nor the Highland doctor has quite come
up to the mark yet. They are on the way,
however, and hail them as fellow workers
NV doctrine is repudiate all debts, and divide
out the property. Here is my neighbor Major
Jones, who owns hive hundred acres OF good
land. worth $4,000, who don't want to pay his
debts amounting to $500 and grumbles heavi
" about the taxes Well, now is it right and
fair that neighbor Jones shall be relieved Of
his debts and taxes and hold on to all his land
I say it amt; because when the law relieves
one it ought to relieve ALL have no debts to
be abolished, and want a little farm badly.
If elected, promise to carry out my principles
universal repudiation down to the latest pos
sible moment, (none of your 10th of April,
1869 an equal division of property, and an
even start for us all. There arc of course no
constitutional difficulties in the way. The peo-
pie who hold property to any amount worth
speaking of, are small minority, and II all
the other sort vote for me | shall certainly be
elected. Those like ME, who own no debts and
hold no propcrty. don't care n straw about re-
pudiation or taxes unless in the new shuttle VIC
can come in for something"

THE RESULT IN OHIo.-There are some facts
in connection with the late canvass in Ohio and
its:results to the Democratic party, which are
worth remembering, and they are thus stated by
the Cincinnati Enquirer: "Two years ago, the
majority against Mr.. Pendleton, for Governor,
was in the neighborhood of eight thousand.
Last wear, when some fifteen thousand negro
votes were added to the poll, the majority was
aboutEseventeen thousand. In the canvass this
wear, we were unfortunately crippled by the
sickness of our candidate for Governor, who
was unable to fulfill his appointments and give
that personal attention to them, which is usual
" expected from him. The administration
made the most extraordinary eXcrtions in or
der to secure the reelection of Senator Sherman.
It put its thousands of otfice-holders to work:
1t made its demand upon the national banks and
the manufacturing corporations for subsidies,
all of which were literally answered: Its cab
met officers patrolled the State and every ef-
fort which a thorough organization, long victo-
rious, could make, was resorted to for success.
The Democracy had none Of these appliances,
SO important in securing general attendance
at the polls. in their favor. They are without
patronage, and, to very considerable extent,
their organization was defective. That we
should have failed to redeem the State, can
hardly be surprise but to the most sangulne::
No true Democrat will be the least discouraged
by this untoward result, but will continue to
labor in the good cause, confident that the So
Der second thought will only be more emphatic
by its being delayed"

THE GROWING COTTON CRoP.-The official
report from the agricultural bureau says:
1'The cotton returns, of October are no more
favorable than those of the preceding months.
In no State is the average of September fully
sustained The general average of condition
in the first week Of the present month is sev.
enty-six per cent, against eighty per cent. in
September. In some sections in the Mississip-
pi Valley and in Texas, improved prospects
are reported, while the preponderance of tes-
timony in the Southwest as we'll as on the At
lantic coast, fayors a further reduction of the
expected yield. The percentage of condition
in the several States is as follows North Caro-.
lima 80, South Carolina rs, Georgia 70, Florida
79, Alabama 70, Mississippi rs, Louisiana 73,
Texas 72, Arkansas 50, Tennessee "a. The in
juries reported are from rust, shedding OF Dolls
prematurely, sufficiently low temperature to
check development of bolls in the more north
ern latitudes, floods and inundations in Florida
and Georgia, sprouting or rotting of bolls from
rains, droughts in the section west OF Georgia,
and the boil and amy worms of Mississippi
and the more western States. 1t does not ap-
pear that the losses from insects are general or
very serious, with few isolated exceptions
Drought should be credited with larger por-
ton of the depreciation than any other as
signed cause, Notwithstanding the fact that cot
ton endures lack of moisture better than other
crops Present indications do not point to q
crop of more than three millione of bales. Ii
the remaining season should be unfavorable for
the development and gathering of the fibre,
still lower result must be accepted.

IT RUNS M THE FAM1LY.-It is interesting
to observe how characteristic traits are some
times inherited from ones forefather's; how
peculiar gifts and talents appear to be handed
down from father to son for generation after
generation. .rr ''.-i -: -
In Massachusetts the Adams family have oc-
cupied O conspicuous place In public affairs
from the birth Of our national independence
up to the present day. In the public lives OF
John Adams, John Quincy Adams, Charles
Francis Adams, and John Quincy Adams the
younger, their fellow countrymen have seen
exhibited in a direct line, through four gener-
ations, qualities of craftsmanship that have
commanded respect and admiration. So also,
in our own State, the Astors, and in Rhode Is.
land, the members of at least two distinguished
families, have shown that peculiar talents for
the acquisition and accumulation OF wealth
can be transmitted from father to son. =.
A still more striking instance of the heredit-
the family of our gifted President, which af-
fords the iinspiriting spectacle of the represen-
tatives of three generations in q direct line all
holding Federal Offices at the same time, and
all exhibiting in the management of their pri-
yate pecuniary interests degree of 'cuteness
which would do honor to the most distinguished
operators of Chatham or Wall street. The ven
erable Jesse, though far advanced into the sere
and yellow leaf, has recently announced his
determination not to give up the Covington
Post Office at the same time volunteering the
cheerful information that he felt now as II ne

now the youthful heir apparent of the Presi-
dent, Master Frederick, on receiving his COM
mission as Second Lieutenant in the army,
instead of rushing from his prolonged and te-
dious studies at West Point into course of friv-
olous amusements and vain recreations, has
procured what is doubtless q lucrative engage
ment with railroad company as civil en-
gineer, while continuing noninally in the SER
vice of the government.
BY late army order there is given to this
hopeful son of the great gift-taker three more
months leave of absence than is granted to any
other graduate of West Point this year, in or
der TO enable him to hold his civil appoint
ment; and as in addition to the salary he re-
ccivcs from the railroad company his pay as
an army officer continues all the while, the
young gentleman gives evidence at his very
start in life that he is not likely to reflect dis
credit on the reputation for thrift which his inn

A VOICE FROM THE DEAD.-Yhe following
Touching episode comes from France: .4gThe
Other day a young soldier, Who had just. re-
turned from Germany, was surrounded in
street, in Endome, by a asympathetic group, who
listened with emotion to the story of his cap
ture imprisonment, and subsequent RETURN
THEY were the more pressing in their attentions
as tie young man had been reported dead, and
The lack of all information about him seemed
10 confirm the report. Suddenly a woman with
melancholy steps and downcast visage, emerged
from one Of the dwelling houses. The Joy and
laughter of the group seemed to mock her, for
she had lost, she thought, her only son in the
field of battle. As soon as he saw her, the
youth made his way throug h the crowd which
pressed around him, and advanced with buoy
amt steps and radiant countenance toward the
woman, who raised her head, and after glance
at the Youths figure, emaciated from long suf-
fering. and his features, which recalled one
Who lived no longer, she turned, staggered, and
would have fallen if the young man had not
caught her in his arms, and whispered in tones
of endearment: Mother, Mother ills /, your
son, do you not know me-? But the kind
mother did not answer her son, for she had ex-
pired. Happiness had killed her."
