Confederate Dead at Antietafn.

After n long delay it is stated that
preparations have been completed for
the interment of the Confederate dead
Mt Antietam. The Hagerstown Her
aid of yesterday says: "Several years
ago the Legislature of this State made
m appropriation of $4,000 to gather up
the bones of the Confederate dead, bu-
ried on the field of Autietam and else
where in Western Maryland, and give
them interment within some appropri-
ate enclosure. The gentlemen having
the matter in charge as Il committee,
year or two ago, purchased portion
of the grounds of Rose Hill Cemetery
Company for the purpose, and lastweek
the work of removal was commenced,

Away Down i'll the Sea.

The submarine Investigations carried
on at Government expense, under the
direction of the British Association of
Science, have disclosed some most lnter-
esting facts in regard to the bottom OF
the sea.
These researches have been carried
on by means of q simple dredge-a rec
tanguIariron frame, forming the mouth
Of a bag of netting, which is protected
from wear by leather or canvas flap.
The whole apparatus, attached to
rope of suitable length, is dropped to
the bottom of the sea, and is dragged
along to a certain distance, scraping OFT
the superficial layer of mud and sand
into the bag, the meshes OF which per-
nit the dirt to be washed through,
while the larger substances are retained
and brought up.
The depth at which the bottom OF
the sea has been thus eNp lored has been
really enormous, amounting IN one IN
stance to more than three miles, fel
exceeding that of any previous expert.
ment with the drcdge, though small
quantities of sea bottom have been
brought up from equally great distances
from the surface by means of the sound
ing line.
At this depth many species of ma
rine animals have been found, some en-
tirely new and others rare, and the tenn
perature at the bottom indicated about
thirty-six degrees. The surface water
is shown to be affected by the heat of
the sun only to the depth of about
twenty fathoms, but the Gulf Stream
influences the degree of heat to fur
ther depth of five to seven hundred

The State Ticket.

We place at our masthead, there 70
remain we hope, until its complete trl.
umph in November, the state tlcket
agreed upon by the Liberal, Democrat
ic and Reform parties. All the ele-
ments opposed to Grant being mus
concentrated, the campaign IN TINS
state can now be opened on the merits.
BETWEEN the two tickets, the people
of the State, Democrats, Wings, Repub-
licans. and even Radicals, if they have
an interest in the State, cannot hesitate
to choose. Tho McEnery ticket as now
constituted, is eminently Conservative;
there is not a man upon it but will en-
ter on the duties OF his Office with
view of serving the States interest be-
fore his own; all will join shoulder to
shoulder in the just execution OF the
laws; in maintaining the equal rights
of ali men before the law, without re-
gard to race, color or previous condl-
ton; in reducing the salaries OF officers,
and abolishing useless offices; IN redu-
cling the taxes, and generally IN plac-
ing the finances of the State In a sound
condition. There is not a man on the
ticket but who is identified with the
State. Nothing of this KIND can ne
said of the other ticket-there is not a
white man OH AAOAAA NAAs
down. who belongs to the State, or
whose feelings and sympathies are
with its people. Should it be elected
a calamity which we pray God to
avert-it will be run by and in the in
terest of Marshal Packard and his GUS
tom-house ring and not the State.
A leading and important matter in
the canvass will be, to satisfy our color,
ed population that their interests a' e anu
those of the white people of the State
are identical-that it is their interest to
rally themselves with us and not array
themselves against us. All measures
taken in the interest and on behalf OF
the State will benefit them as much as
us-they are bound, equally with us,
to share in her prosperity and adver-
sity. The colored people have been
made to believe that their interests and
ours are adverse and it is all impera-
tive duty we owe to them, to ourselves
and the State, to show them that it is
not so.-ETa7ahli,a iStOe.

The Eord's Wall.

Somewhere about fifty years ago, one
bitter January night, the inhabitants of
the old town of Sleswick were thrown
into the greatest distress and terror. A
hostile army was marching down upon
them, and new and fearful reports of the
conduct of lawless soldiery were hourly
reaching the place.
In large, commodious cottage dwelt
an aged grandmother, with her widowed
daughter and grandson. While all hearts
quaked with fear. this aged women passed
her time In crying out to God that he
would build wall of defence around
about them" quoting the words of an an
Gent hymn.
Her grandson asked her why she pray
ed tor thing so entirely impossible, as
that God should build wall about their
house that it should hide it, but she ex-
planned that the meaning was that God
should protect her.
AT midnight the dreaded tramp was
heard, an enemy came pouring in at every
avenue, tlllng the houses to OVERLOOKING.
But while the most fearful sounds were
heard on every eide, not even a knock
came to their doer, at which they were
greatly surprised. The morning light
made the matter clear; for Just beyond
the house the drifted snow had reared
such massive wall that it was impossi-
bic to get over it.
There, said the old woman triumnh
antly, do you not see, my son, that God
could raise up wall around us ?''
Truly, with God all things are posi-

TgAENENG CHILDREN.

o this work of training children for

feet. You wonder at its exquisit organ.

nightfall, as you sit rocking that little

The Value of Good Reputation.

The little story [ am going to tell YOU
happened just before the war, when every
one was very very busy. Soldiers were
enlisting and goin away from almost every
home in the land
One young man had volunteered ano
was expecting daily to be ordered to the
seat Of war. One day his mother gave
him an unpaid bill with money. and ask
ed him to pay it. When he returned
home at night she said did YOU nav
that bill? Yes" he answered. In q
few days the bill was sent in a second
time. Il thought" she said to her son,
that you paid this"
81 really don't remember, mother vor
know I've had so very many things or
my mind.
But you said you did"
[ did" = : '"-' ! oiu'
He went away. and his mother took the
bill herself to the store. The young man
had been known In the town all his life
and what opinion was held for him this
will show.
II am quite sure" she said, 18th at nv
son paid this some days ago he has been
very. busy, and has quite forgotten about
1t; but be told me that day he had, and
says that if he said then that he had. he
is quite sure he did.
We'll, said the man, 81 forgot about
1t; but if he ever said he did, be did,
Wash t that grand character to have?
Having once said thing, that was
enough to make others believe it, wheth
Ell he remembered it or not.
L wish all the boys of our land were as
sure of a good reputation.
