Gen. Hanks square Out for Greeley
and the Liberal Movement.

BOSTON, August 1.-The rumors OF
the detection of General Banks from
the support of Grant and Wilson are
confirmed by the following letter:
To Jas. y. Lewis, ESQ.,, Lynn.
BosToN, Mass, July 81, 1872.
Ny DEAR SIR: / have the honor
to acknowledge by this note, in addi-
ton to our conversation to-day, the
receipt of your invitation to address
the citizens of Lynn, on Thursday
evening, in support of the reelection
of General Grant and the policy of his
administration. No invitation could
have greater weight with me from any
part of the country, nor from any por-
ton of my fellow citizens, and it gives
me great pleasure to assure you that
nothing could be added to your sug-
gestious as representative of the cit
liens of Lynn to induce me to accedo
to your request. Their kindness to
me, many years since, is a continuing
life remembrance, and nothing would
give me greater satisfaction than to re-
new my associations with them. But
| regret to say that | am not in accord
with them in regard to the Presiden-
tial canvass. Against my wishes and
my personal interests, | am compelled
to say that the perpetuation of the
present policy of the Government is
not for the advantage of the country
and that it will not tend to establish
its former good and prosperity, nor to
promote the interests of any class oil
citizens. No personal feeling of any
form or character enters into this
Judgment. 1t is in view of general
principles and the public interests
alone that am led to this conclusion
A meeting of the masses of the
people of all parties, sections and races
in support of the great results of the
war is indispensable to the permanon,
establishment of a general recognition
of these results. 1t can be secured by
no other means, We shall all be
forced to this conclusion sooner OF
later. This united action upon this
basis has been the hope of my life
l fervently desired it during the war
and in the reconstruction of the States
subsequent to the war. l believe it il
now rendered in good faith in tn,
nomination of Mr.. Greeley, and, fol
one, | cannot reject it. 1t was what
desired. It's consummation, although
sudden and startling, does not alarm
me to give him my support. | canno
advocate before your friends y differ
ent course, which neither my judg
ment nor my heart approves.
j 1t grieves me most deeply to sepa
rate myself in thought or act from an!
of those with whom | have been 90
long associated, and to whom / am Sc
greatly indebted, but ] believe the re
suit will justify my action. Give t.
the country that peace and prosperity
which is the object or all our labors
and secure to every citizen the civi
and political equality and freedom
which was won by the sacrifice of 81
many valued lives.
n. p. BANKS.

BURY ME IN THE MORNING.

1t Is not often that the name OF Stephei
A. Douglas Is connected in our minds witt
anything outside the political arena, blu
here IL a beautiful poetical effusion of hi
which Is credit alike TO heart and intel
lect:
Bury me In tho morning, mother
q lot me have the light
OF one bright day on my grave, mother,
Ere you leave me alone with Night.
Alone In the night of the grave, mother,
TITS Il thought of terrible fear
And you will be here alone, mother,
And stars Will be shining heroi
SO bury mo In the morning. mother,
And let mo have the light
OF ono bright day on my grave, mother,
Ere I'm alone with the night.
You tell OF the Saviour's love, mother,
i feel IL Is In my heart
But, Oil from this beautiful world, mother
Ills hard for the young to part;
For even to part, when here, mother,
The soul Is fain TO stay;
For the grave Is deep and dark, mother,
And heaven seems far away,
Then bury me in the morning. mother,
And let me have the light
OF one bright day on my grave, mother,
Ere I'm alone with the night.

THE efforts of ones own brain and
muscle not only add new value to the
work produced, but they develop the
worker. Strength, skill, superior
excellence in any department come
only to the patient toiicr, who feels
that his work is not drudgery, but a
stepping stone on which he rises to a
higher and more blessed life. The
problem should not be how to escape
labor, but how TO secure thorough
training in work and for work 1t is
only AS we catch PauIs spirit ofrejoic,
ing in labor that We shall perform il
as We ought, and gather the rich re
wards which arc secured by every
hearty, joyous worker in Christ
cause.

Captain Simms has named his new
Cumberland river packet, now build
ing at this place, Frank p. Gracey, in
honor of Capt. Graoey, of GAINESVILLE.
Capt. Gracey was born and raised at
Eddyville, KY. During his youth. he
conceived fancy for steamboat life,
and in qualification of such an incii-
nation went to Memphis where he soon
secured a clerkship on Captain Bow
mans st. Francis river packet At
ter remaining with Capt. b. az clerk on
his various boats, for a number of
years, he returned to his native town,
gotmarried and established himself in
the grocery and commission business.
At the breaking out of the war he en-
listed in Cobb's Kentucky (confeder-
ate) battery and was elected, at the
permanent organization of the compa-
ny, First Lieutenant. This position
he filled with much credit to himself
and great efficiency to the "lost cause"
until after the battle of Chicamagua,
when Capt. Cobb was promoted to
Major, he was made Captain of the
battery. From then until the surren-
der, he led his company with marked
gallantry aud ability. At the close of
the war he located at GAINESVILLE, and
embarked in the wharfboat and for
warding business. BY indomitable
energy, which is one of his chief char
acteristics, combined with his supe-
rior business talent, he has been emf
nently successful in making money,
and now ranks as one of Clarksville' s
most respected, useful and enterpris-
ing citizens.
The compliment that Capt. Simms
has paid him is well deserved, and the
boat which is to bear his name, will
be fit namesake and one that he may
feel justly proud of. The Frank =,
Gracey is now receiving her cabin and
machinery under the supervision OF
Capt. Simms, and will be ready for
business by the first of September
Should the aims and expectations Of
Capt. Simms, in regard to her construc-
ton, prove successful, she is destined
to be the lightest draught boat of the
period-combining the largest ton mage
capacity, with the lightest draught,
and will be more roomy and comfort
able for passengers than any other
boat of her class. She will be fast in
speed, neat in finish, beautiful in gen.
eral appearance, and altogether credit
to her namesake and her builder
The entire boat will be built and fin
ished here, and Paducah owes her
thanks to Capt. Simms for spending SO
much money among her mechanics
Success to him and the steamer Frank
p. Gracey-Paducah Kea,ackiaa.

the mansion wherein Prince Charles
slept in the Isle of Skye. There. in
lT73, she entertained DR.. johnson and
Boswell, and allowed them to occupy
the same bed on which the Prince had
reposcd. Although che had then been
a wife twenty years, and was the moth
er of many children, her guests spoke
of her as beautiful, blooming wo-
man. Her husband was then in en-
barrassed circumstances, and they
contemplated going to join their coun-
trymen who had cmigrated in large
numbers to North Carolina. Thither
they went in IT'S, but failed in finding
the coveted repose. The old war for
independence was then kindling. Loyal
to the house of Stuart she was now as
loyal to the house ofHanover or Bruins
wick; and she was greatly instrumental
in arousing her countrymen in the vi
cinity ofCape Fear to take up arms for
the Crown, She and her kinsmen suf-
fered great calamities after the battle
of Moore Greek, in February, 1776,
in which they were defeated; and soon
after the release Of her husband from
Halifax Jail, they and their children
embarked in an English sloop-of-war,
for Scotland. The vessel was attacked
by a French cruiser, and its crew be-
coming disheartened, were about to
surrender, when Flora appeared on
the quarterback and by stirring ap-
peal animated them with such fresh
courage that they beat off their assail-
ants and reached Great Britain in
safety. While on deck Flora was Sc
vcrely wounded in the hand. but she
paid no attention to it until she had
seen her companions victorious.
Flora Mcdonald lived until the 9Th
of March, 1870. At her request her
shroud was made of the sheets in
which the Prince slept at Kingsburgh;
and her remains were followed to the
grave in the cemetery of Kilmin in
the Isle of Skye, by at least three
thousand persons. For eighty years
their resting place was covered only BY
the green sward. In 1871 beautiful
monument was erected over them to
the memory Of her loyalty, bravery
and virtue.
Such is brief outline of the story
of Flora McDonald's life. A volume
would be needed to contain record
of its string incidents, in detail.

BATHING. Many persons have lost
their lives by getting chilled in the
process Of bathing; sometimes by 60
ing into the bath too soon after eating.
No person should take any kind of
bath sooner than three hours after a
regular meal, and the room should
show a heat of seventy five degrees OF
Fahrenheit's thermometer, at about
five feet above the floor in the middle
of the room, in order to avoid danger
Gus chills; persons Of feeble circu.
culation should have the room stall
warmer; if there is an uncomfortable
feeling of GOODNESS TO the body when
it comes out Of the water, the room il
too cold.-HaKs Jomaaiof Health.

MY FRIEND.


Give me the friend with open heart,
with frank aud manly brow,
Who scorns deception Is schcrning art,
And falschcods traitor vow.
Ay, one, that when the worlds frown
Falls dRrkly on the soul,

With JOY LIES mantling bowl.
Give me the friend, with courage high,
Who knows no coward fear,
And manhood from his speaking eye

Stings a. an adder's fang,
Will. secret. in each wound rejoice,
And in each bitter pang.

Never was n better answer made

How TO GIVE CHILDREN AN Ape

them only on plain, nourishing food,
and they will seldom complain of a
lack of appetite. But keep them over

ing down any attempt to play; feed
them upon rich or high seasoned food.
candies, nuts, etc, allow them to cat
between meals and late in the evening,
and you need not expect them to have
good appetites. On the contrary, you
may expect they will be pale, weak
and sickly.
Don't cram them with food when
they don't need it, or have no appetite
this course is slow murder. If they
have no appetite, encourage. and if
need be, command them to take exer-

to study too much, and especially keep
them from reading the exciting litera

In addition to securing exercise for
