The Monarch of the American
Turf.

According to a statement in the New
York sam, Mr.. Harper, owner of Longtel-
low, has been offered larger sum for his
splendid horse than had ever before been
bid for race-horse in this country. Al
though the old man had publicly declared
that be would not sell Longfellow at any
price, still sportsmen at Long Branch kept
badgering him with Offers. First, DR.. WEIGH
of Philadelphia offered $25, 900, which was
mildly rejected (; then prominent New
York merchant went $15. 900 better, and
preferred check for $40, 10000. This al
50 was declined and at last. Mr. D. N.
Smith, the owner of Lady Thorn, sent a
commissioner to offer $50, 900 for the horse.
Even this astounding sum could not tempt
the veteran Kentuckian to part with his
four footed favo1ite The prices paid by
Mr.. Bonner for Dexter and Startle now
sink into comparative insigniGcance.
A Long Branch letter in the New York
Commercial says. ~
Old Harper, the owner Of the great horse
Longfellow. is the quaintest Of all chaps
imaginable. He must be over seventy
His wardrobe is scanty. You would scarce
believe there was enough Of his coat and
pants to wad gun, and I am quite sure the
ragpicker would not give ten cents for the
entire outfit. He is plain old-fashioned
gentleman, "all of the olden times He
knows all about horse flesh, and kept the
secret of Longfellow's speed pretty we'll to
himself. 1t was amusing to watch the old
man at the pool-selling. He was study
for painter. He has made big thing
out Of the race to-day. In the language of
Zeb. Ward, he 'scooped the party"

When Did the War End.

This question has been raised in the Brit
ish Parliament. and some discussion has en-
sued about fixing the time, in view of GER
tain provisions Of the treaty recently conelu-
ded between England ard the United
States. Some think that it should be con-
sidered as having ended with the surrender
at Appomattox, which took place on the
9th Of April, 1865 And SO, perhaps, it
ought But it did not end there, and then !;
nor has it ended yet Congress leglslates
as though war were still fragrant, and rebels
had no rights that "the loyal' Mortimer
are bound 10 respect And to this policy,
we grieve to say, the man who is called,
and writes, himself, President Of the Uni
ted States" seems to be fully committed
1t will be difficult therefore to fix the date
at which hostilities ceased on both sides,
since they have been kept up by the victori.

A REMARKABLE Doc. Mr. Geo Sutton,
of Pocahontas county. is the owner of re-
markable dog, whose smartness consists in
this He is in the habit OF carrying letters
twice week between two points, eighteen
miles apart. The Greenbrier Independent
says : "All that is necessary is to tell, him
to go, and he goes at once, not standing
upon the order Of his going, but seems to
be pleased with the work which he has in
hand. As the chest government in the
world' has failed to place mail route on
this road, this wonderful purp has decided
to run line of his own. His name is Reb
and be is said to be disloyal.'

AN ARMY OF PAUpERs Letters from
Paris by the steamer mail of Saturday speak
of great and increasing distress there Many
thousands Of persons are dependent on private
charity for support, and the wives and fami-
lies Of the workmen who were enrolled in
the National Guard have suffered greatly
since the liberal pay which the men received
from the communal government was with
drawn In Auteuil alone there are 5000
persons who are totally dependent on the
municipality for support. 1t is calculated
that, counting the prisoners and those kill
ed, wounded and shot during the in~prrec-
ton, nc fewer than 80, 900 men have ceased
TO be able to support their wives and fami-
lies. On the supposition that there were
three people dependent on each breadwinner
as a rule, this would give total of 240,-
900 persons who have become depend mt on
nublic charity.

WHAT IS A DEMocRAr?-This question
was addressed to Democrat in political
conversation few days since by cred
hot'' Republican. II would like very much
to be what you call a good honest Democrat.
Be kind enough to tell me what change
will have to undergo to become such, and
how [ will know that I am changed. -
"Well," replied the Democrat. Ego to some
chicken roost, and if you can pass it by
without feeling any inclination to scon-
fscate,' you are an honest Democrat, but
if you cannot resist the temptation to bag
the fowls, you are Radical still, and have
not experienced change" The anxious
inquirer had no more questions to PROFOUND.

The Inside Track OF Life, or How
to EniOy Money.

READ THIS, FOR MAN MAY LEARN IN TWO
MINUTES WHAT WILL BE VALUABLE TO HIM
ALL HIS LIFE.
FACT 1 Experience proves the net cost
of life insurance to be from seventeen to for.
ty cents on the dollar paid up an full, even
Z! a man liues to eighty gears Of age. Nc
other property can be bought on such long
time and easy terms.
FACT 2. Few men get compound Iateresl
on their money. Life insurance companies
deal in compound interest largely, and each
members share of profits increases with the
age Of his policy
FACT 3. Men live easier, safer, enjoy
life better, and are happier, while they are
insured, we'll knowing THEY ARE WORTH
THAT MUCH MORE.
FACT A. AT age twenty-five, the first
years premium on $50, 900 insurance would
be about 5000. Second premium about
$3.50, and growing less, or full payments
for twenty years would easily add $4,000
to the policy. And this is not money pad
out but saved, for the difference bet.oee'' the
money paid the company and aohat they
mast pay you' heirs at death IS olacays a
good rate of interest on the Investment.
Fact 5. By taking insurance you have
more money to enjoy-you can tlve closer
to your income Say man Gagged 800
earns 81, 600 year, $3.50 of this will Sc
cure SIS, 900 at death ofsixty, leaving plenty
to live on with sudden reverses and old age
provided for, while the profits on the insur-
ance will increase the policy OF decrease the
payment annually from first gear. AT age
thirty -four, man can (sometimes) sell
$4,000 worth of land not required for farm
ing, the interest of which would insure him
$4,000 which allowed to increase, would
soon reach 1000 all from small piece of
idle land
But we have said enough, let FACT be
an actual case, from real life, there are
thousands. like It, In the summer OF '66,
at Jackson, Michigan, Mr.. Picket insured
with Mr.. Gould, Agent of --- Com
pany. The premiums were paid reluctant
ly, for Mr.. 7. declared his ancestors we're
long lived and healthy, and he would pro-
badly "pay out more than he would get

closed up his business and cut of his in
come. We need not speak of suffering, of
charity to high minded man. 1t was not
long
A few friends stood around his death bed,
and with them the agent. Taking him by
the hand the dying man said 81 sent for
you, to try to thank you,- but have no
words to do it, you have saved my family
from want, God bless gov for 1t /! Then call
ing his little boy he said, Bonnie when you
grow up, my son, remember Mr.. Could
ia few words more and he was gone,
breathing his last blessings on his family
and friends. HIS life acas not a failure, for
in that dread hour, ut IS not a0hot aoe haze
done for ourse1ues but the good done to Others
that ace love to remember" and "to lave IN
hearts 1oe leaye behind, Is not to die"

French BRANpr.-lt NAV perhaps have

French BRANDY.-lt may perhaps have
a good effect upon those knowing ones who
imagine and edeavor to make others believe
that they are great connoisseurs in brandy,
to mention that from the figures of the in
ternal revenue bureau it is ascertained that
that out of 100000 gallons Of brandy in
the country, only one hundred thousand
gallons are made from fruits, the rest being
compounded from various spirits Many is
the apparently appreciative smack If the
lips that follows the sip of brandy, and the
knowing ones talk of the delicate fayeur
that they imagine tickles the fancy Of their
highly sensitive palates, when most gener-
ally, the liquor has never been favored with
the favor Of any fruit It is sad to shake
these men in their long-lived belief, but the
truth must be told and il is hoped with a
benefit to the drinker of brandy. ss 's

For the Vindicator.7
To the Ruhlic

The undersigned has recently understood,
that some persons, who desired to attend re-
llgious service at the Lutheran Church at
Staunton, were fearful Of doing SO, because
they had understood that the Tower of said
Church was not safe, which is a great mis-
take, as it is perfectly firm and safe.
To satisfy the pubic mind as to the safe
ty of said Tower, the undersigned would
make the following statement. It was built
in the year 1858 and remained firm and I'M
moved until the great flood in August 1855
at which time the whole foundation of the
Church was inundated, which caused the
Tower to recede or give way fiom the roof Of
the main body of the Church for space of
about 4 inches. Some time afterwards, in the
same year, 1855, the roof was repaired, FL
ling up said space close against the Tower,
and said Tower has remained firm and un-
moved ever since, still remaining close up
against the roof, as it has been since 1855,
upwards Of Is years.
Some time in February 1870, during a
very high storm Of wind, one Of the win.
dows, which had not been well secured, be-
came loose and was blown out by the wind,
which occasioned much excitement in the
minds of the public, believing that the win
dow fell from lettering or giving away
of the Tower, which was not fact.
The authorities of the Church whilst they
did not think it actually necessary, yet in
order to allay all fearful apprehensions, and
to satisfy the public, employed an architect,
Capt. j. R. Smith, who, in order to make
it doubly secure, inserted strong iron rods,
fastened on the outside next the street, and
running through the Tower, above the cell
ing towards the far or rear end of the
Church. Said rods thus running through,
were fastened to the large joists, S by IA
inches, making il impossible for the Tower
ever to give way, and it stands to day just
as 1t did 10 years ago, SO that no one need
apprchend any danger of said Tower ever
falling or giving away. This is written by
one who knows all about it,
