What is the worth of a maiden

What is the worth of maidens
heart? This question has come 10 be
decided hy cool, unsentimental
experts. The daughter Ct a poor
widow in B.tliu. Germany, died of
heart disease. and the young ply
sician who attended her during her
illness persuaded her mother. in the
interest Of science, to give him the
poor girls heart. After the lapse OF
some time. the doctor asked tie
widow for an honorarium Of ei-nt
thalers' fifteen silver Groschen, f.t
all his visits and trouble. She
delayed payment; he complained,
and them She gave out that she
considered the gilt OF tine heart as an
equivalent TO the sum demanded.
If this was not acknowledged, she
required the heart to be returned or
the fee in dispute TO be handed over
20 her. TAe Doctor cLrnOt now

his claim; so the question must be
tried whether a maideu's heart is or

an ENrERpRIsrNe BUSINESS Ian.

Here is a good thing from the
Galesburg Republican. Every
town has just such men in it as
the Republican describes:
In addition to other advantages,
Galesburg can boast of \ merchant
Of immense enterprise in the way
of being a positive injury to the
city. This particular merchant
commenced business in flush times
with a small capital, and he swung
out boldly, yet judiciously. He
was all affability and courtesy TO
the managers Of the local press; he
used their columns TO help him In
his business, jewing them down to
the lowest notch, and often for .
first class puff with smirk, bow
and smile. He throve and pros
percd; money flowed in and his
bank account swelled, and being
of an economical turn % mind, he
saved most all he got, while his
unparalleled energy and industry
kept the unfortunate clerks on the
keen Jump ali the time. As his
business increased he grew still
more economical until il became
actual meanness. He declared he
was so well known and so popular
that there was no occasion for him
to advertise, and so he dropped
the home papers, and even sends

his job printing to Chicago because
they can put in more mistakes and
do it littla cheaper; he even buys
his groceries and clothing, and ev
erything else he needs, in Chicago
or New York, and yet this man
has the effrontery to ask his neigh
bors to come and deal with him.
Being only drawback to the city,
he yet expects people to patronize
him literally. But the citizens
here are too wide-awake and intel
ligent TO be deceived any longer
by such peculiar movements on
the part of our enterprisng mer-
chant. The people justly believe
in the homely saying, s'Help me
and l will help you," and the econ
omlcal dealer now perceives that
me has carried his enonomy too far
his store almost deserted and his
customers few and far between.
This thing of snubbing yoar local
press and other home institutions
is sure in the end to rebound to
the disadvantage of the man who
thinks he is saving money by GO
ing abroad for goods that he cal
procure at home, while at the same
he asks his neighbors for patron
age. The way to keep up gooe
stores is to deal with merchant.

POLITICAL POINTS.

An Alabama correspondent ex-
presses the firm BELIEF that Greeley
will not receive the votes of as
many colored men as Seymour got.
att will be q sacrifice of principle
to nominate Greeley at Baltimore"
cries the Chicago Times. We can't
SEQ it. The Democratic party has
no principles to sacrifice II Com
monwealth.
The next State election occurs in
North Carolina on Thursday, Au-
gust 1st, and will have much nation
al significance as showing the direc-
ton OF the political current in the
South. The State has been Demo-
cratic for years, but the Republicans
there have hopes not only of max
ing gains this year, but of actually
carrying the State.
Among the accessions to the
Greeley brigade, over whom the
Democrats are rejoicing just now,
Is Tue lOu. OOuA II. ONASSSf Vi
Michigan, who was expelled from
Congress recently for specializing
in West Point cadetships. Mr..
briggs is a jealous "reformer" of
the misunderstanding stripe. He
had been proceeded by Warmoth,
the carpet-bag Governor of Louisi-
ana, and Col. e. M. Yerger, the as
sassin of Col. Crane, at jackson,
Miss, two years ago.
A prominent Democratic paper
wants Horace Greeley elected be-
cause he will restore to us the
Fourth of July. We didn't know
we had lost it before, but it's prob
ably intended in the event of Gree
lcy's election to substitute some
other day than the Fourth for the
Annual clarifying, that day being
attended with unsatisfactory refiec-
lions to all of Horace's best friends
from an unpleasant occurrence
which took place at Vicksburg q
few years back, in which the tyrant
and usurpor, Ulysses Grant took
a very large hand indeed.
The Emporia news. [volume] (Emporia, Kan.) 1859-1881, 1872-07-12

We see from the papers that DIR.
l.. l.. Pinkerton of Lexington, has
been appointed special agent at
large of the Postoffice Department
He is n true man and n patriot, and
one to whom tho Republicans of
this State owe great deal. 1t is
but a debt due him, that this APP
pointment is made. lie was true to
the Government during the war, a
consistent Republican, and had the
full benefit of all undetermined
meanness which could be heaped
upon him by rebels both in and out
of politics. lie is a man of high
culture, having filed chairs in sew
eral of the first literary institutions
of the West. The appointment OF
such q man is calculated to give
everybody confidence that the du-
ties of his Office will be ably and
faithfully performed.-IL Lexington
(Ky.) Statesman.
Mr.. Pinkerton is the father of our
fellow citizen and popular Justice
of the Peace, j. p. Pinkerton, who,
by the way, has had his own exper-
fences with kentucky rebs and is q
most decided Republican of the
Grant stripe.

THE RAILROAD MACHINE sHors

In our article last week calling at
tentien to the a. T. & 5. F. Il. r. ma
chine shops, We said:
The thing is simply to find just what
the company demands. If its demand
is reasonable and practicable, the peo-
pie will vote yes; if the terms are ex-
orbitant the people will vote no.
They want the matter decided one
way or the other. If the shops can be
located here. we want to have it done.
If they are to go elsewhere, we want
to know 1t, and turn our attention and
resources into some osher channel.
After a full conversation with seve-
raj members of the committee of our
citizens, which has been charged with
the duty of securing the shops for EN-
poria, we cannot see how that commit
tee or any other could have done
better than it has. 1t took early and
energetic action, to secure PROPOSE
ton from the company, and went as
far as it properly or judiciously could
in pledgiDg our people to comply with
any demands that were reasonable and
practicable. We need not here detail
the exertions of the committee, or the
promises it secured from the parties
who represent the railroad interest.
Suffice it to say that the committee
did all that could be done. We have no
desire to reflect upon the characters
tic manner in which railroad mana
gers fulfill their contracts. 1t is
enough that We can fully assure our
readers that If the shops of the A. T
& S. F. road are not located in EN-
poria it will not be on account of the
committee having failed to eompre-
bend or discharge its duty in the
premises.
AS remarked above, our people
simply want the matter decided. They
have plenty of business ON hand, anC
plenty OF important projects under
consideration. Emporia has an envi.
able reputation for enterprise ant
liberality. Lyon county is equal tt
: any in the State. Our people are al
: ways wide awake, and go ahead

The INDIANS.

In our Southwestern items will
be found several extracts from vari-
Gus papers which show clearly that
the rumors in regard to Indian
troubles are not all talk. ALI along
our western frontier, from north to

We sincerely hope the threatened
trouble may pass by without seriout
results. From statements made at
different times It seems the govern
ment has sent forward all the AVAIL
able troops, to be ready for any
emergency.
