Greeley in 1867 and 1879.

No better illustration of Mr.. Gree
ley's philanthropy in feeling, sagacity
in craftsmanship and courage and con
sistency in politics can be given than is
furnished by his letter of five years
ago, replying to the assaults made
upon him in the Union League club
for demanding universal amnesty for
the rebels at the close of the war, and
going upon the bail bond of Jefferson
Davis. This letter is one of the best
campaign documents which his friends
could circulate in his behalf Time
and the present condition ofthe South
ern people and of the Democratic party
have abundantly justified the wisdom
both ofhis doctrins and his actions
then. They stand in great part for
the essence Of the campaign which is
making against General Grant, and
re-reading.of this letter will help to
explain the mystery Of Mr.. Greeley s
nomination at Cincinnati and the ex-
traordinary rally to his support of the
great body of the Southern people.
His position and his popularity now
are the harvest of the seed which he
SO boldly and defiantly s0wed then.

The sting of bee is naturally more
violent than that of wasp, and with
some persons is attended with fatal
effects. Two deaths from such a cause
have recently occurred. The sting of
the bee is barbed at the end like a
ish-hook, and consequently is always
left in the wound; that of q wasp is
pointed, so that it can sting more than
once, but bee cannot. When a per-
son is stung by bee, let the sting be
instantly pulled out, for the longer it
remains in the flesh, the deeper it will
pierce, and the more poisonous it will
become. The sting is hollow, and
the poison flows through it, which is
the cause of the pain and infamma-
ton. The extracting of the sting re-
quircs a steady hand, for if it breaks
in the wound the pain will continue
for long time. When the sting is
extracted, suck the puncture, and thus
prevent inflammation. Spirits of harts-
horn, if applied to the affected part,
will more fully complete the cure
The poison is acid, and the alkili will
neutralize it. If the hartshorn is not
at hand, saloratus can be wet and laid
upon the place; and soft soap will oft
en- case the acute pain. On some pco-
pie the sting of bees and wasps have
little effect, but it greatly depends up
on the state of the blood whether it
will prove injurious, and these simple
remedies, if applied at once, will soon
effect Country Gentleman.

From the Louisville Lotger.l
Tho Bnr Spnngled sprinkler.

by A. MUscOvY DUCK.
when Freedom, sick of Plymouth Rock,
It's blarncy aud its social treasons;
Sick OF the nasal-twanging flock.
That crowd her courts for selfish reas-
onS;
Sick of the long, enormous bills
Paid thieves for plundering whom they
And sick Of all the thousand Ills
That Freedom, in this land, Is heir TO ;
Hcart-sick TO see her sacred flag,
Which grand "Old Hickory once salut-
BY every lousy scalawag
To pelf and plunder prostitutcd--
She swore that ere lis folds should lick
The dust for theft aud those who plot II,
shed furl IL up and send IL, quick.
To heaven, from whence, Ills said, She
got IT.
But when she called her eagle down,
To execute the thought within her,
So like buzzard had he grown
She scarcely knew the hoary sinneri
Whore erst her statute stood, to draw
Mems gaze, from Maine TO Carolina,
There rose, sustained by martial law,
The head and bust of dusky Dinahi
The milky baldrlc of the skies,
Aurora's bright and blushing daughter,
Seemed, unto Freedoms fearful eyes,
a sickly stream of milk and water;
There, too, the pure celestial white,
Once mean Caucasian blood to fiatter,
Was striped, not with the morning light,
But mix'd shade, yclept, mulatto-
All in obedience to the law
Which holdeth him than mcnt-ax-dul-
Ter
Who secs, or thinks he ever saw,
Distinction on account of color.
The warrior, Grant, was blasting stone,
While all the lightning lances rusted,
The warriors of the storm were gone;
The thunder-drum OF heaven was bust
And as her springing stems advance.

KENTUCKY NEWS.

A telegraph limo will hc cstablis he'd
along the T.. ana p. u. II.
Mail cxpross cars will be placed on
the Elizabethtown and Paducah road
in few days.
A young lady was bitten by a dog
supposed to be mad in Fayette county
the other day.
The colored voters of Lyon county
lately, ina meeting at Eddyville, declar-
ed themselves in favor of Mr.. Grant, but
announced their intention TO vote for
the Democratic candidates for Sheriff
and County Attorney because there
was no chance 20 elect members oil
their own party to those Offices.
Immediately after the completion
OF the bridge across Tennessee river,
the Il. and p. road will run two trains,
daily, between Paducah and Eliza
bethtown. The night trains will have
sleeping coaches attached, which will
be run through to Louisville without
change.
The case against the two Shanls
boys for the killing ofPeyton was tried
at Lancaster, Garrard county, on the
10th inst. The killing occurred some
two years ago, creating great excite
ment, and on preliminary trial they
were denied bail and sent to Lexing-
ton for safe keeping. Subsequently q
change of venue was had TO Lancaster
from Richmond, and at the recent trial
the jury hung. Nine were for acquit-
tai, two for the penitentiary and one
for hanging.
The Paducah Kentuckian says
We are informed by authority that
is entirely trustworthy. that the Eliza
bethtown and Paducah railroad bridge
across Tennessee river will be finished
certainly by the 18th of August, and
possibly trains may cross II by the 10th
prox. All the material is now on the
spot, large force is at work at each
end of the bridge, and there is moth
ing apparent to hinder its early com
pletion. The approaches to the bridge
on both sides of the river are in place
with the track laid down; three out of
the. seven main spans are completed,
and the iron structure of two more is
being put up very fast, while the false
timbers for the draw, which embraces
two spans, are partially erected"
