Senator COnkling delivered his first speech of
the campaign at a large and enthusiastic Grant
and wilson meeting at the Cooper Institute,
New YORK, last evening. He began by saying
that no political canvass had ever been so full
OF foul play, injustice, and malice; and that
none had ever before appealed so strongly to
his sense Of fair play. Many honest men, he
said, have been led away by this 'liberal" cry,
but they are deceived by the clsud of calumny
which darkens the sky. The men who set
arOat these calumnies are distempered with
gTieis, or else the sOrdid and the vile who fol-
low politics a. the shark follows the ship. The
President, his family, and all nearly associated
with him have been bespattered, and truth and
deCency have been driven far away. Every
thief and cOrmOrant who has been put out,
every bsffied mOuser for peace or plumber,
every man with a grievance or a grudge, all
who have something to make by a change seem
to wage al unbridled tongue or to drive a foul
pen. He spoke of the Cincinnati convention as
made up of few respectable men who have
since repudiated it, and OF the most piebald,
disreputable collection to be scraped from the
cutters and sewers of politics. He characterized
the tariff resolution fthe convention a shallow
evasion, the amnesty plank needless, because
the general amnesty bill had already passed
Congress, and the civil service reform resolu-
uOn wholly unnecessary, because Gen. Grant had
long before commenced the work of reform. In
reference to the charge of gift-taking brought
against the President the Senator said il
was not wrong for Grant, as q general, to accept
munihcent offerings from the affiuent, whose
fortunes be had saved, and in giving which they
but followed the customs OF ancient and mod
ern times. Wellington, Cromwell, Fairfax,
Golden, Bright, Mcclellan, Sherman, Sheri-
dan and Farragut were similar recipients. The
charge that II was wrong is an insult to the ma
ton who witnessed and applauded the proceed
ings- The charge that Gen. Grant accepted
gifts after he was nominated or since his cleo
ton, the SenstOr denounced a. wholly false
He denit that the President has grown rich in
Office, and gave an exhibit of the moderate
amount Of property held by him, showing that
the little he has came to him from the gratitude
OF the nation at the termination of the war be-
fore lie entered Office. The Senator defended
the action of the President in the ST. Domingo
matter, and claimed that he acted the part of
an honest man, walking in the path OF the con-
sntuton and his predecessors. After consider
ing and disposing of other charges made against
The President, the Senator entered into caustIc
review of MIR. Greeley's political record, and
concluded by expressing the opinion that one
who had been 20 variable could not be trusted
TO run a cider mill.

The inducement OF sIOo, 900 offered by the
New York legislature to the person who shall
discover the best means of applying steam to
canal navigation, has brought out quite num-
Der of competitors, and there is reasonable
ground 10 hope that the time is rapidly approach
ing when steam will wholly supersede hsrse
power. Besides the competitors who apply ste am
directly to the propulsion of the boats, others
are trying for the prize who propose steam tow.
age An interesting trial of Williams Canal
Road Steamer" recently took place near Albany,
New York; in the presence of three commission
ers Of the New York board of public works, and
seems to have been quite satisfactory. The
steamer, which ran on the tow-path, drew three
boats with the greatest ease at the rate of three
and a-half miles an hour. By q careful COM
parison 1t Is estimated that the expense of tow
age BY this steamer would be much less than by
horse power. and that by the use of steam
saving of nearly fifty per cent. in time would be
accomplished.

A special correspondent Of the Baltimore
A"eriodH writes from North Carolina to the
effect that the disturbance which occurred at
Raleigh had not the least resemblance to a ku-
klux outrage. Two colored men who acted as
marshals in the Greeley procession were hooted
at BY party OF rude colOred people, and one OF
them was threatened with an attack, but neither
OF them was hurt The story about the whip
Ping Of Cross, 'the Greeley marshal" and his
being found in the woods in disabled cond-
ton, was pure fiction, saws the correspondent
invented by the Greeley men for political effect.
The dispatches about the United States COM
missioner "trying" and "convicting" the offend
ers are incorrect, because that off Ger cannot try
and convict persons accused of crimes; he in
quires the charges and If there appears to be
primo facie case against the parties he can
only hold them TO bail for their appearance be-
fore the United States court.

BY CELIA THAXTER.

She is so fair, thought, so dear and fair
Maldenly beautiful from head to feet
With pensive profile delicate and sweet,
And 1itian's color in her sunny hair.
So fair, thought, rejoicing even to note
The little flexible, transparent wrist,
The purple of the gold-casped amethyst
That glittered at her white and slender throat
The tiny ear, curled like rosy shell;
The gentle splendor of the wide brown eyes,
Deep, lustrous, tender, clear as morning
skies:
The full, sad lips, 1.-THE voice that like bell
Rang thrilling with music sweet and wild,
High, airy-pure as fluting of the fays,
Or bird-notes in the early summer days,
And joyous as the laughter of child.
Dearest, has heaven aught to give thee more?
l thought, the while watched her changing
face,
Heard her fine tones and marked her ges-
lures grace
Yea, one more gift is left, all gifts before.
We go our separate ways on earth, and pain,
Gods shaping chisel. waits us as the rest,
With nobler charm thy beauty to invest,
And make thee loveler ere we meet again.

the .juics of two lemons and the grated

When cold, serve with cream.
DRIED EGGs.-The eggs must be beaten
to a uniform consistency and poured in
thin layers upon polished iron plates,
which are placed in current of hot air
the paste rapidly dries, and must be pack
ed in Theoretically sealed cases. When
required for use, the dried egg can be
dissolved in cold water and beaten to a
foam like fresh eggs. 1t is said that eggs
can be preserved for years in this way,
and that they retain their agreeable flavor

try.
FLAvoRING WITH LEAvEs.-One of the
most useful and harmless of all leaves for
flavoring is that of common syringa.
When cucumbers are scarce, these are a
perfect substitute in salads or anything in
which that flavor is desired. The taste is
not only like that of cucumbers, bu: iden.
tical-a curious instance of the correlation
of flavors in widely different families.
Again, the young leaves Of cucumbers
have striking likeness in the way of
flavor to that of the fruit. The same may
be affirmed OF carrot tops, which are
as like carrots in taste as may be. In
most gardens there is u prodigious waste
of celery flavor in the sacrifice of the ex-
ternal leaves and their partially blanched
footstalks. Scores OF sticks Of celery are
cut up into soup when the outsidcs would
flavor it equully we'll or better. The
young leaves Of goose-berries added to
bottled fruit give iresher flavor and
a greener color to pies and tarts. The
leaves of the Towering currents and red
Orange, citron and lemon leaves impart y
flavoring equal to that Of the fruit and
rind combined, and somewhat different
from both. A few leaves added to pies OF
boiled in milk used to bake with rice, OF
formed into crust or paste, impart an adj
mirable and almost inimitable bouquet
In short, leaves are not half so much used
for seasoning purposes as they might be.

Snaps Revenge.

Once there lived happy little fami-
ly. Now little family means papa,
mamma, Lulu, and Snap. Papa and
mamma were grown people, Lulu was
little girl, and Snap was a little dog.
You may laugh at my calling Snap one
of the family, but only speak of him
just as papa and mamma and Lulu
would, if you should ask them who he
was.
Now Snap was wonderful dog he
could mind, and he could dlsobey; he
could understand all that was said to
him, and he could perform tricks by
the score. Snap was very little dog
was avery broad dog; he was very
fat dog; he had long, shaggy, yellow
hair, in which he took delight; he had
soft, fappy ears, of which he was very
fond, and above all, or rather at the
end of all, he had beautiful bushy
tail, which was his great and especial
pride.
Now Lulu had six dolls they were all
OF a size; they all resembled each 9TH
err; and, SO far as I know, they all be-
= haved very much alike. Every night,
with Snaps assistance the dolls were
all undressed. You ask how Snap
helped 2 Well, L will tell you. As
last as Lulu took off the clothes, she
would fold them and hand them to
Snap, who, taking them in his mouth,
would run to the little doll bureau,
and, after opening the drawer with his
teeth, would place each little garment
very neatly and carefully inside. When
all was ready, the six dolls we're set up
IN a long row, for Lulu never thought
IL healthy for them to go to bed. Then
every morning Snap would bring the
clothes as fast as they were wanted,
and would sit with his little head cock
Ell on one side, watching with the most
approved expression, as each little arti-
cle was put on; and when the six dolls
were all dressed, Snap would show his
Geight by the most violent wagging OF
mat beautiful tail of his. So you see
Snap was quite remarkable little
oog. But although he was generally
80 very good, sometimes he coald be
heariy as naughty as human beings
oIten are. And now il becomes my
sad duty to tell the tale of how tail
was lost, and the happiness of the little
FAMILY for time destroyed.
one day Lulu was going somewhere,
anu she did not wish to take Snap, Sc
wnen he began to follow her out of the
room, she turned and said, "Snap, you
cannot go with me to-day Upon
nearing which Snap set his little fat
sell down on the floor, and, lifting his

FOR THE BOYS AND GIRLS.
Autumn.

,rbe winds were hushed and the night was
chill
The moon swung high Ger the brow of the
And the blinking stars filed the vault on high
With their gentle light like seraphs eye;
And the vespers soft of the forest trees
Had died away with the evening breeze, s
When, hid in the shades of grand old wood,
For the fairies coming awaiting stood.
For the Fairy King last night had said
That the green of the trees should be changed
for red
For the purple hues and gold with the glow
or the sunset skies when the sun hangs low.
He had dipped these dyes at the sunset hours
From the liquid heavens, land his magic powers
He had used to send through his realms so
wide,
And his subjects he called ere the eventlde
OF another day hushed the world to rest,
And banished care from the worlds dis
tressed.
Soon, with whir Of wings and a gentle hum,
Did the fairy throng to their labors come.
Each bore on his back tube of paint,
And each wore garb so funny and quaint
That laughed, though I feared each elfin
sprite
Might quick dismayed, from the woods take
fight.
Then fairy few through the lambert air,
And the royal wish did the vassal bear.
Through his trumpet he spoke: "The King
DEGREES
That tonight you shall paint all the poplar
trees
With yellow lght-may the morning sun
See at least this part of your labor done.
You may russell the oaks, and warmer glow
Der the maple you may freely throw;
Use the choicest dyes for these maple leaves
That each fairy child from the King receives.
And charge you well, that the same design
To each maple leaf you shall strict confine."
The retainer did then his course pursue,
And the fairy throng to their labors flew
When mellow light in the eastern sky
Proclaimed to the world that the dawn was
nigh,
Then bugle call through the forest rung,
And the elin throng from the forest sprung.
And the rising sun did the world behold
In the gorgeous robes of purple and gold.
A child in the street, with wondering gaze,
Now shouted in glee, "The trees are ablaze p
And maiden cried, "'Tis exceedingly strange
That Jack, in night, could work such a
Charge
=" Jack wrought not the change" said a rever-
end sage
Whose hair was white with the frosts of age.
"'Twas the blood spilled in battle, which dyes,
the woods red. 4t8t
In Summers fierce conflict with Winter" he
said.
But know twas the work of a Fairy King,
Who has changed to crimson the green of
spring.
