A young merchant who is trying to

schools last Sabbath During the pro.

takes that delicate way 0f intlmating
that 1t is not very strong.
Those who take pleasure in studying
the signs in the heavens should not
forget that the time is near at hand
| for another shower of. meteors. They
are due on the 10th Of this month, but
are quite irregular, and almost as likely
to appear on the 9th or llth as the day
named.
A new locomotive named Horace
Greeley has just been turned out of the
Schenectady car shops. 1t bolted from
the track and was "busted" up the first
day. ,s4 ss
A man named Samuel Wilson, oi
Meigsville township, Morgan county,
was found dead in his hay field one day
last week, with both legs cut off; the
work of q moving machine. He Is
supposed to have bled to death. He
was old and wealthy resident of that
county. ..,e
George N. Sanders, the worst blath-
erskite among the emissaries of the
rebels during the war, is now the chosen
| friend and associate of Horace Greeley.
He denies that he accompanied Gree
ley to Chapin's church as had been as
serted, but he is due attendant at the
Greeley headquarters In New York
and a recognized personal friend of
Greeley. It will not be forgotten that
Sanders was the mouth-pIece of the
rebels in the famous Niagara conference
where Greeley exhibited his weakness
and folly in 1864.
DIR. Lanahan, who, it will be remem-
bered, was arrested soon after the Gen.
eial Conference in consequence of mat
ters growing out of the Methodist
Book Concern troubles, is about to be
appointed by Bishop Simpson to an i'm
portant position In the church-that Of
Presiding Elder of large district.

1t is curious to see how the New
York Tribune is ''run" now. For in
stance the other day it published list
of ssGrant Defaulters." as it styled
them. An examination brought out
the fact that the list includes many of
Mr.. Greeley's supporters. 1t begins
with Barton Able, of st Louis, who it
charges has $3.50, 900 unaccounted for as
Collector of the First District. Mr..
Able is one of the prominent Greeley
men in Missouri, and he is one who has
funds to contribute to the "cause." Go
ing on down it includes several of less
er note, and it is probable that a COM
plete examination will reveal half of
those who have been thus published
to be supporters of Mr.. Greeley.

Imam address recently made bv ii

In an address recently made by Judge
--of Bangor, Me-, at Republican
Convention, held in that city, the Judge
remarked that the Greeley departure
reminded him of an incident which oc-
Cured during the war. 1t was just be-
fore an unexpected battle that Lieut.
enant was sent out to look up stragglers
in a certain city. On entering a saloon
he found cheek-by.jowl, an Orderly
and Chaplain. The Lieutenant ask
ed the orderly to "what army" he be-
longed, and was told "The army of the
Potomac" 'tTo what regiment?" ask
ed the Lieutenant. ''The 3Sth Penn
sylvania," was the reply. Sand to
what army do you belong?" enquired
he of the Chaplain. Drawing his digni-
ty to its highest tension, the Chaplain
replied, "To the army of the Lord OF
Hosts p' swell" replied the Lieuten-
ant, sail I can say to you, is, that you
are an almighty distance from your
headquarters" So, held the Judge, is

ALL RIGHT AGArN.-The horses be-
longing to the Fire Department are all
right again, having entirely recovered
from the horse disease. This will be a
great relief to those citizens, especially
in the Sixth ward, who are property
owners, and who so nobly stood in their
store doors and on the sidewalks, as a
few men were. dragging the engine to
the fire at the corner o. Quincy and
Main Streets. II they bad so much
fun on the occasion of 80 small blaze
as that was, they would have split
themselves laughing had block burned
down. The horses being able for duty,
though, relieves them from being called
on again, AT least for the present.
