A SMALL Boys ESSAY ON TOBACCO
Tobacco stores are mostly kept by wooden
Iniuns, who stand at the door and try to
fool little boys by Offering them bunch Of
cigars, which is glued in the Injun's hinds,
and is made of wood also. Hogs do not
like otacco; neither do I. l tried to
smoke a cigar once and it made me feel
like epson salts. Tobacco was invented
by man named Walter Raleigh. When
the people first saw him smoking they
thought he was steamboat, and as they
never saw steamboat they we're frighten-
ed. My sister Naocy is girl. l don't
know whether she likes tobacco or not
There is young man named LeRoy who
comes to Sc her. He was standing on the
steps one night, with cigar in his mouth,
and he said he didn't know as she would
like it, and she said. "LeEoy, the perfume
is agreeable But when my big brother
Tom lighted his pipe, Nancy said, "Get
out Of the house, you horrid creature the
smell of tobacco makes me sick"

GRANTS GREATEST FAULT.-Speak-
ing of Trumbnll, Summer, Chase and
Greeley, the Salem (Nlass.) Gazette says
Here are set of men who, down to the
verp brink of their apostasy, were the most
insatiate radicals on the continent; who
assisted in molding all the measures that
are most denounced by the Democrats, and
ttat are most offensive to the conquered
element at the South, and yet they are
holding General Grant responsible for them,
when his only part in them was IN accept
ing the measures of the dominant party,
and performing his-ce constitutional duty of
enforcing the laws as he found them 1t is
not anything that General Giant has done
that constitutes his principal offense; it is
that he stands in the way of SO many can
did.tes for the presidency.

SsNAros ScHURz ATA DISCOUNT
The Boston Globe independently ventures
upon these remarks in referring to this
noted orator and Senator.
The utter incspablility of Senator Schurz
TO manage the opposition which ne hep
ed to evoke is forcibly pointed out
in the Arzeiger des Westens Ger
man paper opposed to the adminstra-
ton, and possessing great influence at the
West. Whoever the Greeley campaign
may benefit, it has ruined Schurz. He has
shown weakness, incapacity and bad faith.
He declares that the nomination OF Greeley
is "enough to disgust one forever with
American politics"-yet he advises people
to vote for Greeley. He wept over the
nomination, and now praises It. he hac
neither the ability nor the courage to defeat
the disgraceful scandal at Cincinnati, and
now he has not the honesty to repudiate a
trick which he admits is odious to him.
Is this the conduct worthy of "great
statesman ?" The Nation aud the Post OF
New York both declared-believing in
Schurzs' integrity-that he could not and
would not support Greeley. But Schurz
has contrived to disappoint his best friends,
without conciliating those who never be-
lieved in him. He called crisis into ex-
istence, and broke down ANONYMOUSLY un
der it's first pressure He may well say
that he is "disgusted with American poll
tics"

Tell rs something swee, to think of
Tell rs something sweet to dream.
Tell the very sweetest story
That you ever heard or read,
And you'll see that we'll femeu. Der
Every single word you've said.
Then I told them Of a midnight
In the very long ago,
When the sky was full OF angels,
And from every shining row,
In q voice Of heavenly music,
Came lovely message, given
For the sake Of one sweet baby
That had come one night from heaven.
"Now please tell US just another,
Tell the saddest one you kno~;'
And I told Of one who suffered,
As be wandered to and fro:
Doing good to all around him,
Without fear, or sin. or pride;
Blessing those who most ill-used him,
For whose sake at last he died.
"Now, please, just one more, dear mether,
Tell US now the strapgest one"
So I told them Of journey
On mountain top begun;
Through the azure, in body,
just as here on earth he trod,
Up through shining ranks of angels,
To the very throne Of God.

Waited till my tale was done,
