Fornev on Grant.

The following is the text Of Col. j..
W. Forney's speech on Grant, which
has caused such a sensation in Penn
sylvania political circles:
81 believe that Gen. Grants re-
nomination is inevitable. I know of
no Republican in this city or state,
whatever his views may be on other
questions, who is against Grant. l
believe his reelection essential to
the preservation OF the union. When
Tread the proceedings of those in
vestigatiDg committees 1 feel like op-
posing to their silly statements and
preiudices the great historical facts
of his military and civic record.
Then remember Grant us the man
who saved my country and yours. ]
remember how he seized our cause
when it was sinking, almost for the
last time, and bore it to victory. l
remember how he abstained from
the presidency until forced upon
him, and that but for him, in 1868,
we should have been defeated, even
by Seymour and Blair"

This wonderful vegetable
restorative is the sheet-an-

bilitated. As a tonic and
cordial for the aged and Ian
guild it has no equal among
stomachics. As a remedy for
the nervous weakness to
which women are especially
subject, it is superceding ev-
cry other stimuIant. In all
climates, tropical, temperate
or frigid, it acts as a specific
in every species of disorder
which undermines the bodily
strength and breaks downthe

dent in the life of William Writ:
In his younger days he was vic.
tim to that passion for intoxicating
drinks which has been the bane Of 10
many distinguished in the legal pro
fession. Afianced to beautiful and
accomplished young woman, he had
male and broken repeated pledges Of
amendment, and shs after patiently
and kindly eudaring his disgracefu'
habit, had At length dismissed him,
dsemiug him incorrigible. Their next
Meeting after his dismissal was in Q
public street in the city of Richmond.
Writ lay drunk and asleep on The
sidewalk on hot summer day, the
rays OF the sun pouring dowu on his
uncovered head, and the dies crawling
over his swollen features. As the
young lady sp roached in her walk,
her attention was attracted by the
spectacle, strange to her eyes, but,
Alas! 10 common to others who knew
the victim as to attract little remark.
She did not 1t nrst recognize tho

when she was led by one Of those i'm.

4 Child ViOliniSt.

\ child vioIinist, Martin James
Spcaight, is now performing at the Ma
tiOnaI Thcatcr, Cincinnati. The Ga
zctte gives the following sketch of the
musical prodigy: Mr.. Speaight is him
self q vioIinist of no mean excellence
He is English by birth, and the boy
was born i'll London. Soon after his
birth Mr.. Speaight came to the United
States and obtained an engagement as
first violinist in lTisk's Grand Opera,
House, New York. Before the boy
was able to walk or talk he manifested
:m exceeding fondncss for the violin.
His fathers playing excited him great
ly, and when the violin was laid away
in it's case he would creep to it and fon-
die it with as much tenderness rs !,
little girl manifcsts for hcr doll.
Oneday, when the boy was two Years
and eight months old, his father and
mother were walking along the street,
when their attention was attracted by
a miniature violin in the window of Il
music store. They went in and at
tempted to purchase it, but the mcr-
chant refused to sell, saying it had
been made u model forcNhibitiOn, and
he did not wish to part with it. The
next day they returned, bringing with
them the boy. No sooner did nc sec
the model than he went into an rcSta-
cy. The merchant handed il to him,
and he Immediately commenced play
ing with so much skill and spirit that
the merchant yielded, and allowed
the boy 10 bear the instrument away
i'll triumph. From that moment the
little violin was his insc}mr;thlc com
panion. lie took il to bed with him.
and during his waking hours he could
not be divorced by amy of the >cdtc-
tons to which the child nature j. ttstt-
ally SO susceptible.
Two months aitrrWartl, when the
boy was but two years and ten mouths
OLD, he was put upon the stage, aud
has bcrn playing In public ever
since.
He has no knowledge of written mu-
sic, but his musical rcrccrtivts arc so
quick that he can execute Il difficult
composition after having heard il
once or twice. lie is now but about
four years and 4 half old, and, of course.
too young for much abstraction, but at
times an inspiration seems to come
over him, and he plays with spirit
and feeling which drill The nerves of
all listeners.
Unlike other prodigics his talents
are not confined to his speciality, but
his mind is unusually quick i'll all di-
rections, and, with proper training,
he will undoubtedly become not only
a great violinist, but Il man of fine gen
eraf culture.
