helpless love, too deep for pride to show
through its tears, and the President of the
new State was to her Il newborn babe
again, DO dearer, no greater. He was just
in time, for she had but the short season of
Summer to live, and like many dying
mothers, life seemed upheld, at four-score
and five, by waiting love until he should
come History is ceremonious as to what
passed then, but the parting was solemn
and touching, like the event you will
see me no more" she said; my great age
and disease warn me that l shall not be
long in this world. But go, George, to
fulfill the destiny which heaven appears to
assign you. Go, my son, and may heavens
and your mothers blessing be with you
always"
Passing from that dear, pathetic pres
ence, the President-elect perhaps did not
hear the plaudts ofthe pc3ple il IL, -tr'
of Fredericksburg. He rode - day-by
the road he had come, and reached Mount
Vernon before evening, having exhibited
his power of endurance at the age of fifty
seven by riding eighty miles in twenty
four hours. His good wife had made all
ready; the cquipage and baggage were at
the door next morning, and leaving Mrs.
Washington and most of the household
behind, he set out for New York at 10
O'Clock on Thursday, the 10th of April,
accompanied by Thompson and Hum
phreys. The new State was waiting anxi-
ously for its magistrate George Alfred

AUTUMN LEAVES.

They lightly fall upon the garden mould
These autumn leaves, all crimson, brown and
gold,
Content to drift upon the west winds breath,
Though for'them waits no second life in death
Sweet was their life to wave in Gods free air,
In the glad sunshine He pours everywhere;
Sweet is their death, to die when vfolets die,
When autumn's sunset gilds the western sky
So Hike our lives, so like our golden dreams,
WroSght out in shady groves by crystal streams,
They fall and die, and God marks out the rest,
And all is good, yes, good, for He knows best.
Some precious things can never know decay,
While all else changes, while all fades away;
But Christi dear love that waits for you and me,
And His sweet home we all SO soon shall see.
The tender human Heart that loves us yet,
In all life's labor, in its toll and fret
Come joy or sorrow on the west winds breath,
That cannot fail us in our life nor death.
Oh sweet brown leaves, all up the busy street
They tread you down with idle, careless feet;
oh, golden leaves, once green with early spring,
L bless you for the message that you bring,
As fades the sweetness from this earth of ours,
As fall the leaves, as die the summer flowers,
Green grow the healing leaves which never fall,
And brighter shines Gods City through them ALL

OAT CnAFF FOR FEED.--A year or two
ago we were led by accident to feed some
oat chaf to a few head of milking cows,
and were agreeably surprised to find that
they suddenly came up considerably in
in their milk. The chat was discontinued
for day or two, when the cows fell off to
their former quantity; but on feeding the
chaff again, the flow again increased. Since
then the value of oat chatf as a milk pro-
Queer has been satisfactorily proved by us.
This would then make it advisable that
when oats arc thrashed the chatf should be
saved for feed. 1t may be fed in the place
of cut chat, with the usual wctting. salt
ing and mixing of the regular allowance of
meal. In years when hay is scarce, as in
the present, not only chaf may be fed, but
the oat straw should be saved for fodder.
1t is quite as nutritious as timothy gone
to seed.-Hearth and Home.

GOING INTO THE DOG TRADE.-Col. G..
W. Palmer, of Saltville, has adopted nov
ell method of getting rid of sheep-killing
dogs. In card published in the Abing-
don Vuginian he says:
'In view of recent heavy losses of i'm
proved sheep by dogs, and prospect of
continuance Of those losses for all time to
come, in the absence of some law to pre-.
vent, which it seems is beyond the ken of
our Legislators, l am compelled, in selfde-
fence, to go into the dog business there
fore propose, for the next thirty days, to pay
two cents per pound, gross weight, for all
dogs raised within five miles of Saltville
Dogs to be raised of any age between eight
months and five years. They may be de-
livered at my scales, either in small lots or
large droves. Cash paid on delivery"

End there is None.

Light traverses space at the rate of mil
lions of miles a minute, yet the light from
the nearest star requires ten years to reach
the earth, and Herschel's telescope revealed
stars two thousand three hundred times
further distant. The great telescope of
Lord Rose pursued these creations of God
still deeper into space, and having resolved
the nebul9 of the milky way into stars,
discovered other systems ofstars-beautiful
diamond points, glittering through the
black darkness beyond.
When he beheld this amazing abyss; when
he saw these systems scattered throughout
space; when he reflected upon their immense
magnitude, and the countless millions of
worlds that belong to them, it seemed to
him as if the wild dream of the German
poet was more than realized.
God called man in dreams into the YES
tibule of heaven saying:
"Come up higher, and | will show thee
the glory of My house." And to His angels,
who stood about His throne, he said
"Take him, strip him ofhis robes of flesh;
cleanse his affections; put new breath into
his nostrils; but touch not his human heart
the heart that fears, and hopes. and trem-
bles."
A moment, and it was done, and the man
stood ready for his unknown voyage. Under
the guidance of mighty angel, with sound
of flying pinions, they sped away from the
battlements of heaven. Sometimes on the
mighty angels wings they fled through
Saharas of darkness, wildernesses of death.
At length, from distance not counted,
save in the arithmetic ofheaven, light beam
ed upon them, sleepy flame, as seen throu-
gh hazy cloud. They sped on in their
terrible speed to meet the light; the light
with lesser speed to meet them. In mo-
ment, the wheeling of plants then came
long eternities oftwilight; then a gain, on
the RICH hand and on the left, appeared more
consultations. At last the man sunk down
crying" Angel, can 60 no further let
me down into the gray and hide me from
the infinitude of the universe, for end there
is none2" END ther is none 2"demanded
the angel And from the Offering stars
that shone around, there came q choral
shout End there is none!" END
there is none 9''demanded the angel again

SUBoRDINATIoN OF THE MILITARY Pow
ER.-What the country needs, and what
the Democratic party desires, is the rule
of civil over the military power, and the
local self-government which the States re-
serve to themselves when they formed the
Federal Government. These are the great
fundamental principles for which we are
now contending and along with these
will come the honest administration of pub
lie affairs, and an utter cessation of steal
ing and swindling upon the part of public
officers. The election of Horace Greeley
will not only give all sections of the coun
try peace, but it will inaugurate in the
government competency and honesty in all
its departments
