A Singular Case.

William w. Hawthorn, of Millsbor.
ough, Pa, who died at an advanced age
February Is, was early in life deprived
by rheumatism of the use of his right
arm and both legs. The flesh on these
limbs gradually shrivelled away, while
his head and body continued to grow
into all the proportions of a well-devel-
oped man. For purposes of locomotion
he was placed in a box, in which, con.
stantly lying on his back, he attended
to all kinds of business for the last sixty
years. He acquired common English
education, taught school for number
of years, and at the time of his death
was serving his seventh term as } US
tice of the Peace, having acted in that
capacity for nearly thirty-five years. He
used the pen with his left hand, writing
with the paper on small board placed
on his breast. He married at %, and
was the father of twelve children.

And right behind her chignon,

To list her whisper sweet
As timidly she asked me
For some more soused pigs feet,
Till my passion would consume me,
Like the lightning's dreary flash.
And at her small feet kneeling,
tlinging down her c0rned beef hash,
I'd breathe my love in accents
As sweet as damson pie.
While she sat with sausage in her mouth,
Affection in her eye.
Who cares for the head waiter.
Bearded, and stout and grim,
When two lovely eyes of hazel
Are looking down on himy
Her head rests on my shoulder,
Her words like jelly pass,
A she murmurs Get papa's consent,
And sOAe more apple sass ~

Especial Dispatch to the Baltimore Sun
Consultation of Radical Republicans.

WASHINGTON, May An important con-
sultation of administ ration republicans was
held to-day in the marble room of the Senate
chamber, to discuss the course to be pursued
towards the republicans who had joined the
Cincinnati movement. 0ne or two Senators
like Chandler and Edmunds favored a war-to-
the-knife policy, and denounce them as traitors
to the republican party.
Other Senators, including Mr.. Wilson, IA
vored peace policy for the present, with the
future hope that the democrats would nomi-
nate straight ticket, ana that the liberal re-
publcans would thereupon all return TO the
fold 1t was intmated that the President held
that view, and so far as this conference could
bind anybody, il was agreed TO pursue len
lent course. A proposition that Grant should
withdraw, and let the republicans unite, was
seriously discussed.

The Cincinnati Nominations.

The Cincinnati Convention was n success in
point of numbers and character. Whether the
nominations made will receive the support Of
the party which created the ticket is now on
trial before the country Certain it is the
nominations have thrown dismay into the
ranks Of the Radical party. The name Of
HoRAcE GREELEY is Il tower Of strength which
Is not weakened by the addition OF q. GRATz
BaowS. And although the Democrats have
given every encouragement to this movement
yet are they BY no means committed 10 the
support of The ticket What that party will
do will be announced by the Democratic Ma
tional Convention which alone is authorized
TO speak. The ticket is meeting with much Of
approval in The South, and many Of our ex-
changes are ont-spokeu in lis behalf as the
only hope for the counirY--as the only hope
for that down-troddene South which has so
long been under the iron heel Of the oppressor
If the day Of deliverance is at hand-and the
Democratic party, the cd vanguard of Lib
ty, rs brave as it is penerous-endorses the
ticket, then as the fight grows hot and the
combat thickens, will that same old party, in
compact mass, move as in days Of yore
The New York HeraM of the 4th inst, in
two-column double loaded editorial, pays
glowing tribute TO Horace GREELEY, the Lib
cral Republican nominee for President, The
editor reviews the whole list Of persons who
were put in nomination, their chances of cleo
ton had either received the nomination, and
arrives at the conclusion that the Convention
nominated the strongest man and one who,
probably, may be elected. The Heraid says,
further "He (Nir. Greeley has received his
nomination, and if he avoid certain Talncies
ihat may cmbarrass him, we shall support
him" Bennett leaves hole to creep ont nj
hut he has a,caly rendered signal service 10
the Farmer Of Chappaqua.
The Heraldalso sounds a note Of warning to
the Administration. II says:
president Grant should request the resig-
nation Of Mr.. Fish, and call into his Cabinet
true American, like Mr.. Washburne. The
military gentlemen Who have done duty as
secretaries and in other positions around the
Waite House should retire and give place TO
civilians. 1.-THE President viii make these and
probably some other changes in his surround
inRs he will restore public confidence in his
