T. That the achievement Of these grand
purposes Of universal bcnifcence is expected
and sought at the hands Of all who approve
them, irrespective Of past affiliations.
o. That the public faith must at all hazards
be maintained, and the national credit pre-
served.
o. That the patriotic deyotedncss and ines
timabe services Of our fcllow-citizens, who, a.
soldiers or sailors, upheld the flag and main
tained the unity Of the republic, shall ever be
gratefully remembered, and honorably requit-
ed. These propositions, 20 ably and forcibly
presented in the platform Of your convention,
have already fixed the attention and com
manded the assent Of a large majority Of our
countrymen, who joyfully adopt them, as do,
a. the basis Of a true bcnefccnt, national re-
con.truciion-of a new departure from jcal-
ousies, strifs, and hates, which have no longer
adequate motive or even plausible pretexi, in
to an atmosphere Of peace, fraternity and mu-
tual good will In vain do the drill-sergeants
Of dccaying organizations flourish menacingly
their truncheons, and angrily insist that the
files shall be closed and straightened; in vain
DO the vhippers-in Of parties once vital, be-
cause rooted in the vital needs Of the hour,
protest against 'traying and bolting, denounce
men, nowise their interiors; a. traitors and
rrncgades, and threaten them with infamy and
ruin. am confident that the American peo-
pie have already made their cause their own,
fully resolved that their brave hearts and
strong arms shall bear it on to triumph. In
this faith, and with the distinct understanding
that If elected shall be the President, not Of
party, but Of the whole people, ! accept your
nomination, in the confident trust that the
masses Of our countrymcn, North and South,
are esger to clasp hands across the bloody
chasm which has too long divided them, for
getting that they have been enemies in joy
ful Consciousness that theyare and must hence
forth remain brethren. Yours, gratefully,

Story for Ladies' with brother.

The moral Of the following, told by that
sufferer, is too aprarant to mention.
Young ladies will hereafter run their
brothers cut when gentleman call. Its
certain that | wish somebody would
spank the young rascals.
We talked of mountains, hills, wales
and cataracts-I believe | said water,
falls-when the boy spoke up and said;
"Why sisters got IL whole trunk full
of them up stairs; papa says they are
made of horse hair
This revelation struck terror to me and
bushes to the face of my fair compan-
ion. 1t began to be very apparent to me
that must be very guarded in what !
saId, lest the boy might slip in his re-
marks at uncalled for places; in fact,
turned my conversation to him and told
him he ought 10 go home with me and
see my nice chickens | have in the coun'
Try. Unluckily mentioned yoke Of
calves, which ruined all. The little one
looked up and said.
Sisters got dozen pair of them, but
she don't wear them only when she gees
up town on windy days.
leave the room, you unmannerly
little wretchT exclaimed Emily. "Leave
Immediately"
81 know what you want me TO leave
the room for" exclaimed he. "You
cant fool me; you want to sit ON that
mans lap and kiss him; like you did Bill
Simmius the other day; you cant fool
me, just tell you. Give me some can
dy like he did, and I'll go. You think
cause you got the Grecian Bend you art
smart. Cess know a thing or two,
I'm mad at you, anyhow, because papa
would have bought me a top yesterday
if it hadn't been for getting them curls
dog ON yer. You needn't turn 50 red in
the face, cause EN- see the paint. There
aint no use u winking with that glass eye
of yourn, for | amt going out of here
now, that's what's the matter with the
purps. don't care If you are twenty
eight years old, you amt no boss o

Come and See While the Stock is Fresh and Complete.
10 YOnng Wen.

Young men should read the following
words from the pen of professor Porter,
and from them gather new courage for
the battle of life: young men, you are
the architects of your own fortunes. Re
ly upon your own strength Of body and
soul. Take for your star self-reliance.
Inscribe on your banner, Luck is fool,
pluck is a hero Don't take too much
advice-keep at your helm and steer
your own ship, and remember that the
great art of commanding is to take fair
share of the work. Think well o. your
self. Strike out. Assure your own po'
sition. Put potatoes in cart, over a
rough road, and the small ones 60 to the
bottom. Rise above the enyious and
Jealous. Fire above the mark you in
tend to hit. Energy, invinclble determ-
nation, with a right motive, are the le-
yers that move the world. Don't drink
don't chew-don't smoke-don't read
noyels-don't deceiye-don't swear
don't marry until you can support wife.
BE earnest-be selfreliant--be generous
be civil. Read the papers. Adyer'
tise your business. Make money, and
do good with it. Love God and your
fellow-men. Love truth and yirture,
Love your country and obey its laws
