that Fisk is dead, there is no excuse for the
publication of his love letters. The corres-
pondcnce of such man with such a woman,

of all his martial obligations. might have
been needed in court of justice had the
outraged wife sought redress. or had it con
tainsd tie evidence essential to an ex xposition
of the Erie frauds. But it becomes public
for neither of these purposes. 1t is printed
ouly to cater to tho lowest cravings of New

Ex- -GovzRNoR JosEPH f. Brown, of
Georgia, acted very conspicuous part in
the Chicago convention as q friend Of
General Grant and in no small degree
aided in bringing about his nomination.
A short time ago an unprincipled carpet
bagser addressed letter to him, soliciting
his aid in procuring declaration of mar
tial law in that State and by the use of
th. bayonct securing her ELECTORAL Sots TO
Grant in the coming Presidential contest.
From Ex>Gov. Browns reply to this pimp
OF tho administration, be is evidently drs>
gu.ted with the rindictive legislation Of
Congress towards the South and regards
the radical policy of reconstruction ns an
ignominious failure. Being a native of
the South, he is a competent judge Of
what is required to restore peace and har-
mony among her people, and repudiates
Grants bayonet policy as applied 10 tho
Southern States in tbs following manly
and emphatic language:
The Republican party has been constantly
weak ened until it is alInost destroyed in Geor-
gia by the repeated acts Of Coagrers during the
period of reconstruction, prompted no doubt by
unuise councillors rrofsssing to speak for the
State, who either misunderstood od, the true con
dition of things here or ulfully msrepresented
it, In either case the effect was the sans.
Congress has been misled and popular senti
ment here has been outraged to eli extent that
has rendered it impossible for the supporters
of the administration TO stand before it with
any prospect ef success. l think it is time
unWss legislation should cease, and | protest
against further enactments Of the character
contemplated by you and others who a.sis. you
in your proposed movement. The wiseSt thing
in my judgment, that Congress could do for
Georgia would be to conciliate her people and
show them that it is the in tention to deal Just
ly and literally by them. If general act
was passed sweeping from the statute book the
last ve,tige Of political disability that rests
upon any Of her citzens, and che ere left al
other States are TO manage her own internal
affairs in her own way, it would do mere to
restore peace, harmony, loyalty, and good gov
ernment in the State than anything else that is
now in the power of the Federal government
to do.

A correspondent informs US that a
large swarm of bees attacked team OF
four horees on the farm of Mr.. Joseph
Brubaker, near Winchester, in this
State, on the 2fst inst. The bees had
been In stand in the second story Of
the house, and about 4 o'clock in the
afternoon they came out OF the house.
IA few Of the bees took after Mr.. Pot
ter, a hired hand, and Mr.. Reuben
Brubakor started to drive away the
team, which was standing near the
house; but the whole swarm, which
was half bushel of bees, lit on the
horses. The horses ran about fifty yards,
and then began to paw, and the bees
stuug them so badly that they Just stood
and paved and squealed. The young
man left the team ran to the house and
got bee hat, which he put on; he then
unhitched the horses from the wagon, a
daring feat which few persons would
care to perform, and succeeded in get
ting three Of the horses into the stable.
The other one was so badly stung he
could not get to the stable, and will
probably die. Three of the horses will
probably recover. The young man and
the hired hand were also severely
stung."

Fireworks in Daylight.

The Japanese have fireworks made
expressly to be let off by daylight. A
recent festival in Japan, at which a
display of these ingenious toys were
exhibited, is thus described in the
Yokohama Herald: ''The second day
was occupied with exhibitions of the
ingenious daylight fireworks, of the
manufacture of which the Japanese ap-
pear to be the sole masters. As usual,
these consisted mostly Of bombs, which
exploding high in the air. discharged
sometimes various colored jets efsmoke,
and sometimes closely folded packages
of wire and paper, which unfelded
themselves into parachutes Of great
bulk and symmetrical design. They
were sometimes fish, which swarm
leisurely through the atmosphere to
the ground; or snakes, which writhed
themselves away over the tree-tops, or
great birds, that hovered kite-like and
motionless for an an'incredibly long time.
Occasionally = they took the shape Of cot
tages, temples, human beings, magni-
fed crests daimios, trees and flowers
almost everything that a lively imagi-
nation could suggest! The smoke
figures, however, were the most anus
ing. One of the most frequently at
tempted was, cuttleflsb, with a body
ofthick, fulginous black, and arms Of
lighter hues. OF course the illusion
was very brief, the wind not allowing
the smoke to remain nndisturbed for
more than, a few seconds; but while it
lasted it was. perfect. o.. .7oJa s,.

to drag the body of his enemy around
the walls of the conquered city. Suffice
it for him to know that his work, in
which he had thrown his whole soul,
was accomplished, and he was willing
to drop the curtain on the scene."
There was another passage between
these great chiefs grander still. Lee
informed Grant that his cavalry men
had furnished their own horses. Grant
replied: "Let them keep their horses;
they will need them to till their fields. %
1t was simple and sublime prophecy
of a future and enduring peace. It was
saying in this silent mans way: 'Gen.
Lee, the war is over. Let US beat our
swords into plowshares, and our spears
into pruning hooks, and learn war no
more, and let these soldiers till their
fields"
This is the Caesar of Mr.. Summers
gloomy and disordered imagination.

Fat Mems COnyention at PUTIN
Bay. SeDtember 9th.

Invitations have been accepted by a
gentleman and wife from Darke county,
whose aggregate weight is 1908 pounds,
the husband weighing $40 and his wife
4S3 pounds. Agentlemen from Marys-
Vile, Union county, whose weight Is
go pounds, will enter a claim for the
honor ofbeing President of the Conven-
ton, though it is confidently asserted
that Toledo will produce man who
will outweigh him.
In Cincinnati, there is great deal of
enthusiasm among the fat men over
the project, and full delegation will
be present from Porkopolis. The Fat
Contributor, in the last issue Of his
paper, gives the following advice to
those who propose to attend the great
blowout:
Distribute yourselves about the island
as much as possible. If you should
congregate near the edge, you might
capsize the island. Men who wear your
size cap shouldn't capsiZe.
Have your clothes made full as DOS
sible for the occasion. On second
thought that precaution is hardly neces-
sary; they'll be full enough before you
have been there long.
Board would be cheaper If you
bought your provision in the gross.
There will be tremendous amount Of
l0Gist, anyhow.
Guard each others steps in going
about the island. or course none Of
you can see where your own feet are
going.
Fat men who indulge in target shoot
ing should be sure of their aim before
firing; for the fats in the fire.
Ii any fat womani claims a greater
avoirdupols than yours, don't dispute
her. Det her 'ave'-er-dupois.
Don't roll in the ten pin alley. You
will find 1t easier rolling In the grass.

"A Fathers Advice to a Bride.

i "A Fathers Advice to o Bride.
Said q young husband whose busi-
ness speculations were unsuccessful,
"My wife's silver tea-set, the bridal
gift of a rich uncle, doomed me to finan-
cisl ruin. It involved a hundred un-
expected expenses, which, in trying to
meet, have made me the bankrupt /
am" His experience is the experience
of many others, who, less wise, do not
know what Is the goblin Of the house,
working It's destruction. A sagacious
father great wealth exceedingly NOR
titled his daughter by ordering it to be
printed on her wedding cards, "No
presents except those adopted to an in
come of 81, ,0O0." Said he, 'syou must
not expect to begin life 'iu the style
am able, by many years of labor, to in
dulge; and T know. of nothing which
will tempt you to try it more than the
Internationally but pernicious gifts of
rich friends" Such advice to daughter
was timely. If other parents would
follow the same plan, many young men
would be spared years Of incessant toll
and anxiety; they would not find them
selves on the downward road, because
their wives had worn all their salary,
or expended Ii on the appointments of
the house. The fate of the poor man
who found hnchpiD, and felt himself
Obliged to make carriage to fit it, is
the fate the husbands who finds his
wife in possession Of gold and silver
valuabIes, and nolarge income to sup
port the owners gold and silver style.

"Why, there is just where he is al

Beekman.
Never mind" said the Governor,
" would take his opinion of man to

"You would ?" asked Mr.. Beekman,
feeling in side pocket.
"Yes, I would" said the Governor,
firmly.
"Well, here is little slip where he
calls you mountebank and corrupt,
dishonest and swindling Democratic
yillian," said Mr.. Beekman, as he
handed an old Tribune editorial to the
Gov.
The Gov. read it over twice, then
looked as if he was trying to see straight
through Mr.. Beekman, row of car
riages, and two feet brick partition
then he slammed down his hat and
went up stairs.

the following to the tune of the Mabel

1t stated that the handsome and valu-
eble presents given to Madame Nilsson
Rouzsud on the occasion of her mar
riage have been deposited in the Bank
of England during the honeymoon OF
the loving pair in Switzerland and
Sweden. The Court Journal thus Cos
sips about the happy couple: "It is not
generally known that NJ. Rouzaud first
met Miss Nilsson in Paris when she
used to be taking music lessons from M.
Collinet, whose daughter Marie was at
that time teaching her singing. M.
Rauzaud, lover of music, used to take
pleasure in being one of NJ. ColIinet's
social circle. Both NJ. Rouzaud and
Miss Nilsson were then comparative
nobodies. 1t was when they were thus
obscure that they made up their minds
to marry each other. Mile. Nilsson
and her husband have taken a splendid
mansion in the Champs EIysees-the
same where Patti passed her honey
moon. Her father-in-law, NJ. Rouz-
aud, who isa colonial merchant, has, in
honor Of his sons marriage, given a
sumptOus dinner to his clerks, and
placed in each of their napkins bank
note for one thousand francs"

bound for Texas had on board a large
number OF travellers and emigrants,
among them lady with little boy
aged seven years, who had the ague.-
When about sixty miles below the State
line the boy, who had been walking
about the car during the evening, fell
OF. This was not known by the moth
or until the train had gone two miles,
and the lady sought the conductor and
asked him to back the train, which he
refused to do, and, in spite OF her tears
and entreaties, carried her down to the
next station, where she was compelled
to stay over night and wait for an up
train the next morning. On return the
boy was found. He had crawled up the
embankment among the grass, and
resting his curly head among the wild
flowers of the prairie, and drenched
with the terrific thunder storm Of Fri
day, heswas dead"

Amen, amen, cried North Carolina, in

The prosperity of the country is owing
to the confidence and trust of. the peo-
pie in the solidity of the Government.
Treat the Indian as man is the pol
icy of the United States. Nearly three
hundred thousand Indians are cared for
by the Government. The Indian ex-
penses have increased to seven millions.
General Walker tells why. 1t is be-
cause the Indians have been driven
more and more from their hunting
grounds, Therefore they raise their
hand against the white race. But stead
lily the policy of the Government is
having its effect.
Another cry is directed at what they
call the abuses in the civil service Of the
country. But is it the Democratic par
ty to which we are to look for improve
ment in this particular? am free to
confess, after great deal Of study and
Investigation, of all persons in this
country who are kno Rn as bitterly OPP
posed to reform in the civil service, none
are more helplessly so than leading
gentlemen who nominated Horace
Greeley at Cincinnati.
] have come to the conclusion that no
thorough reform is possible without the
cooperation Of Congress, or until public
opinion asks of every man nominated
for Congress, .'Are you in favor of a
thorough reform?" and gets from him
a categorical answer. The President Is
guided strictly according to the rules ne
he has adopted, but no man knows the |
difficulties in the way. This principle
is, however, adhered to, that all posi-
tions shall be filed by ascertained fitness |
and not merely in consequence Of poll
tical influence; and it is to my knoWl- |
edge that the President has not remOv-
ed any person from Office solely on ac-
count of political considerations.
