Ancient Expresses.

A well known means of sending
news rapidly, in country with such
bad roads as Greece, was by trained
runners Thus we are told that
Phildippides, professional courier,
ran from Athens to Sparta to beg
for aid, just before the battle of Ma
ration, arriving at the latter city at
the end of the second day, and this
was distance of $50 miles. The
constant gymnastic training in which
ureek, and especially Spartan, SOL
diers kept themselves, enabled whole
armies to make very rapid forced
marches. In the present instance, the
Spartan army, though slow TO start,
yet when it did march, performed the
distance in three days. So, the old
Chasseurs de Vinconnes, the picked
light troops of the French army,
were trained to make swift marches
by running one on either side of a
cavalry soldier, whose stirrup leath-
els they caught hold of. This, we
believe, or something like it, is still
kept up among the Zouaves. The
episode Of the "Fiery Cross" in the
Lady ofthe Lake, shows how quickly
a district may be aroused by well
organized system of running mes
sepgers. Indeed, the swiftness OF
rumor is as proverbial as it's exagge-
ration. Lady Duff Gordon, in her
voyage up the Nile, found that the
news of her approach invariably
outstripped her movements, rapid as
they were. The curious story given
by Herodotus of herald's staff found
floating on the sea at Mycale, and of
the rumor that straightway run
through the Greek host, of battle
won by their countrymen in Greece
proper, that very day Cat Plataca),
is also case in point. In countries
more favorable for speedy travelling,
much use was made of horses and
other animals. The admirable sys-
tenn of roads and posts instituted by
the Kings of Persia throughout their
vast domains-"the posts that rode
upon mules and camels," as we have
it in the Book of Esther, excited the
wonder Of Herodotus, who says en-
phatically that "there is nothing in
the world swiiter than those mes
sengersr At the present time an
Arab will not unfrequently travel a
hundred miles in o day on one of the
untiring horses. The Romans, with
their straight roads, tho primary
object of which Gas of Russian rail-
Ways was speed for military purpo-
ses, provided, we may be sure, the
means of making the utmost of them.
In the times of the empire, post
houses were set up along the great
highways every five or six miles,
with about forty horses at each SO
that q Roman Ambassador, for in
stance, using these relays, might
easily journey in his chariot a hun
dred miles a Chambers Jour
nal.

A ToUGH SToRY.-An Ohio travel
er is telling the following story at
Dayton. Her name is Prairie Ward.
She says she has walked all the way
from San Francisco to Dayton that
she is forty-nine years of age; that
her fathers name is Armstrong and
that he was Wyandotte half-breed.
Her mother, she claims, was a
daughter of Russell Bogelow, Chap
lain of the Ohio penitentiary. In
1925, when living near Columbus,
KY, she was stolen by Camancho
Indians, and carried to what is the
present State of Nebraska, where, at
the age of thirteen she was married
to David Ward, half-breed, by
whom she became the mother of
eleven children. Her husband af-
terward joined the rebel army, and
she stayed with the tribe. They
murdered the children, ate their
flesh, and danced in their blood. She
afterward escaped, taking the long
walk above mentioned, and is in
Ohio to find out her relations, having
an aunt living in Bellsfontaine.

DECORATION DAY.
By JOHN LAIDLAw.

~ JOHN AAAohANs
Sweet is death for things that Ere us
on battlefield or foam,
For our Loves and things DESTROYS
That circle hearth and home.
For all that's beautiful and grand
Around our faith and fatherland
Southwark clouds Of battle looming
Burst on the peaceful plain
Loud the artillery's Gre ball booming,
Spread death on land and main.
Where loyal lay the traitor fell,
Bat Heavens arm recouquered Hell.
streams Of blood from every nation
Flowed round Freedoms glorious shrine,
shouts for Truths last grand ovation
Thrilled DER the land and brine
And, as surviving legions cheer,
The dead received, not claimed. tear
scattered ike the leaves Of Autumn
BY clustering Winters wind,
Friendly hands have raised and brought en-
To graves that hold their kinned.
Memorials of a noble past
Their monuments shall ever last.
Sisters hearts shall ever love them,
And mothers weep their praise,
Widowed tears shall flow above them,
And brothers court their bays.
For tbs a noble thing TO die,
Whom "dod and country" is the cry.
Wreath their graves with greencst laurel,
The reddest roses spread;
Scatter free the tribute floral
Above the hallowed dead
On every tomb with name or not;
Each mound Of green's sacred spot.
For tho memory fail TO cherish,
Or page recount tho tale,
Deeds Of glory never perish,
Nor virtues ever pale.
Engraven on the eternal mind
Il all that's great in human kind
Weep DER our said bereavements,
when May slips of her name,
Rest 20 heroes from achievements
No day but ours can claim.
When patriots fought for truth and right,
And died. that slaves might rise TO light.
Fallen centuries long oppression.
The reign Of tyrants blind;
Fallen mans most wild trau sgression,
High treason to his kind
And Afric's dusky sons arise
To learn what only freemen prize.
BY the dead that here are sleeping,
by hearts that feel their grave,
by the widows ceaseIess weeping,
Aud by the swords we wave,
Let treason's hand ne er rise again
we liye-they have not died in vain

aA.The Brooklyn Eagle tells Of
an octogenarian Jerseyman who for
sixty years has been an Invaluable
exemplary horror to the temperance
takers, yet has succeeded in living
happily and healthily as follows:
Every day he religiously Furnishes a
quart of liquor of some kind, chang
ing the brand each morning. He
has divided his life into rum Mon
days, bourbon Tuesdays, rye Wednes-
days, sherry Thursdays, brandy
Fridays, gin Saturdays, and apple
jack Sundays, By thus rotating his
refreshments, and by always seeing
TO it that the supply equals the de-
mand, he lives with malice towards
none and with charity toward all.

sea- The toad is a great destroyer

bsa-The toad is great destroyer
of insects, and on this account has
been found very useful in gardens for
exterminating the striped bug, squash
bug, fee-beetle, etc. 1t devours the
potato bug with great avidity, and
suffers no Inconvenience from feeding
on this poisonous insect. The toad
is very destructive to bees, aud
should be banished from the apiary.
A toad has been noticed sitting for
several hours under a hive stand,
waiting to devour any bees that
might happen to fall to the ground.

She, at least, whatever her faults,
did not convert her devotion to her
God into thing of shreds and patch
es, in the milliner's room. She was
bigoted devotee, if you will,
both to fashion and to religion, but
she had good taste or elevation of
feeling enough to keep them widely
apart, and did not cease to express
her trust in the mercy of God an a

CARD

Having become satisfied after thorough investga-
ton, that Elastic Sponge. as now and lately mann
factured is one Ofthe best OF all the substitutes tor
curled hair for many if not most uses in upholstery
We have accepted the Agency of it, and intend to
make it hereafter speciality in our business. The
objections which have been made to it anu which it
is well known We ourselves have thought were well
founded, we nave ascertained cannot be urged
against the article as now perfected The process of
manufacture has been entirely remodeled under the
advice and suprintendence OF one OF the most emil
nent chemists OF New Engl4n New chemical and
mechanical APPLIANCES have been introduced in
cleansing crude Sponge, and in charging it with
glyeerine with such entire success, that Elastic
Sponge may now be said to be chemically pure
There is absolutely nothing in it but the clean fibre
otSponge and chemically pure glycerine
The objections to Elastic Sponge being thus re-
moved there remain its undisputed merits which
certainly entities it TO be considered one of the
valuable it is one OF the most curious and inter-
esting late discoveries. Chief among these mer-
ris is. that it is proof against NOTES.-The great
scourge OF the business,-and against all other in
sects. Then its elasticity is permanent based as it
is upon the nOn-evap0rable property of glycerine
and the indestructblty Of sponge fibre. We have
always been satisfied upon these two points which
are the essential requisites IN such materials The
evidence is now equally clear that it is wholesome
aid sweet. 1t is certainly light and soft, easy to
manipulate, and cheap enough for all except the
lowest class of goods For the cushioning OF Chur-
ches, Theatres, Public Halls, Railway Stations
Omnibusses, Carriages, Steam and Horse Cars and
the like it will probably be found, everything con
sidered the best article in for all uses and
pee tally for Bedding, we are now prerared to
ommend the public to give it fair trial as we our
selves intend to do. We ready also to answer in
quries, make estimates and take orders for every
description of work in Sponge as well as to supply
the trade the article in bales,
