Mr.. DooLiTTLE is taking the AdministI1l-
concise bill of Indictment against it for lis
North Carolina policy. There is no cvadins

Never in this land was there such opprcS-
sion, such attempt to suilocatc whole pco'
plc-to spread terror in the state, and
humble men ut the fOotStool of power. The
Federal moncy-tllc interference Of Federal

them oil il they will support GEANr-thc
test that those are loyal who vote for GRANT,
and those rebel who vote against him--thc
reign Of terror which subjects ali ConScrva-
tive blacks to outrage, and possibly death
all these are forcibly presented by Mr.. Doc
LITTLE, and his voice will watt them to the
North on every breeze. Truly he said that
the half of southern expressions had not
been known ut the North. But now we
have division of parties which forces the
northern people to inquire into these things.
They are once more allied politically with
the South. Blows aimed at the men they
are allied with are aimed ut them. and they
will help to ward them oil.
The great fight in North Carolina has the
fine effect of Tightening the Sympathies be-
tween the North and the South. 1t is unit
ing North and South in Il common cause and
increasing the yigor and force of the rcvolll.
ton which promises the restoration of true
republicanism.

PENNSYLVANIA.

1t has been rumorcd that efforts were To
be made by General GnASr TO heal the jars
in the GRANT party OF Pennsylvania some
way or other. We did not suppose that hc
could possibly do any such thing for the
reason that he has never failed to take sides
with one or other OF tue factions, and thus to
di>qualiiy himself totally Us IN umpire be-
tween them. The Philadelphia Press of
"Wednesday plainly intimatc> that efforts
have been made with Colonel FoRHEY to dis
suadc him from his opposition to the state
Republican ticket. He illustrates with the
fable of the old man and the little thief on
his apple tree. The old fellow tried first per-
slHlsion and then force in the shape of stones
hurled with force ut The head of the young

fCRNEY says the fable in his case was re-
yerscd. The stones and empty bottles were
thrown fits; Witlou, effect. and then came
the honeyed accents and sugared phrases,
such AS Dear FoRSKY, DON'T" but all to no
effect. lie thus declares his rnalterablc
purpose:
Our words of counsel were Spurncd and
secuted. Our inrhcarance was rewarded
with chorus of r,umny and threats from
the Cameron organs. The soiled characters
of the Objectionable candidates were sought
to be clcan>cd and harmony in the party
ranks to be restored by Il concerted series of
coarse persona! attacks upon the editor Of
this paper.

When man complains Of the Liberal
party that it is very much mixed he calls 1T
tention to its chief merit; for until the pco-
pie of this Union are mingled in politics,
irrespective of sections,--arc irrespective of
old party ties-tLere can be no hope of our
deliyerance from the expressions Of the war
party.
But who complains Of the mixture: II
he be man who has ever changed his party

Pat and the Pig.

A countryman killing pig and not wish
ing to divide with his neighbor which was
the custom of the country, said to the man
(who by the way was son of the Emerald
Isle)
C. ''Pat, if l give to the neighbors who
have given to me, piece of pork | will
have none left for myself Can you tell me
what am to do ?''
"Be dad, sir" said Pat; "it's meself,
sir, that can do the same thing"
'Good," said the countryman, rubbing
his hands and looking at Pat. Snow, tell
me what am to do"
"Faith, sir" said Pat, "sure and when
the craythur is cleaned, just be afther
hanging it against the door where every
mithers son Of them will see it, and early
in the morning before any one is about, get
up and take in your pig and hide it away,
and then when your neighbors come tell
them the pig was stolen"
"Capital idea, Pat" exclaimed the
countryman. "l'll do that, by st George"
So when the pig was cleaned it was hnng
up outside the door so that the neighbors
could see it. The countryman anxiously
awaited the approaching night, and at last
retired to bed but not to sleep. Pat under
cover Of the darkness of the night, crept
around the house and stole the pig.
What was the astonishment of the coun-
tryman when at early dawn he arose to
hide away his pig, but found no pig there
can be better imagined than described. In
the midst of his bewilderment, Pat came
in with his usual stop O. the morning to
you, sir, and giving him knowing wink
said:
Masther how about the pig?"
"Well, Pat, the pig was stolen in re-
atty"
Faith and that sounds just as natural
as though you had lost your pig"
"But, you blockhead, told you the pig
was stolen"
"Faith and begorry, masther, the divil a
bit o. me thought you could do SO well,
Just stick to that it's as natural as life"
"By st. George, " roared the now irate
countryman. 81 tell you the pig was sto-
len."
"och be jabers;" says Pat, "stick to it
and your neighbors will believe you, and
divil a bit Of it they'll get. Faith, I did
not think you could do so we'll"

Gbe Gtnes, Mem BLOOMFIELD, 1)a.
We did not know whore to commence amy.

we did not know where to commence any
how.
The joy in our hearts at our deliverance
was poisoned; well-nigh dissipated, indeed.
We presently began to grow pettish by de-
grees, and sullen; and then angry at each
other, angry at ourselves, angry at every
thing in general we moodily busted the
snow from our clothing and in an unsoci-
able single. file we plowed our way to the
horses, unsaddled them, and sought shelter
in the station. ~ "a
have scarcely exaggerated detail of
this curious and absurd adventure. 1t oc-
CURED almost exactly as have stated it,
We actually went into camp in snow
drift in desert, at midnight in storm,
forlorn and hopeless, within fifteen steps of
u comfortable inn.
For two hours we sat apart in the station
and ruminated in disgust. The mystery
was gone, now, and it was plain enough
why the horses had deserted u.s. Without
doubt they were under that shed quar-
ter of minute after they had left us, and
they must have overheard and enjoyed all
our confessions and lamentations.
After breakfast we felt BETTER and the
zest soon came back, The world looked
bright again, and existence was as dear to
us as ever. Presently an uneasiness came
over me-grew upon me--assailed me with
out ceasing. Alas, my regeneration was
not complete-I wanted . to smoke ! re-
sisted with all my strength, but the flesh
was weak / wandered away alone and
wrestled with myself an hour. l recalled
my promises of reform and preached to my
self persuasively, upbraidingly, exhaustive
ly. But it was all in vain, shortly found
myself snealxing among the snow-drifts
hunting foi my pipe. discovered it after
a considerable search, and crept away to
hide myself and enjoy it. l remained be-
hind the barn a good while, asking
myself how should feel if my braver,
stronger, true comrades should catch me
in my degradation. At last lit my pipe,
and no human being can feel meaner and
! baser than did then. | was ashamed of
being in my own pitiful company. Still
dreading discovery, felt that perhaps the
further side of the barn would be some
what safer, and so turned the corner. AS
| turned the one corner smoking, Ollen
dorff turned the other with his bottle to his
lips, and between us sat unconscious Ballou
deep in a game of " solitaire" with the old
greasy cards
Absurdity could go no farther. We
shook hands and agreed to say no more
about "reform" and Examples to the
rising generation"
