The Baleinore Convention.

nc o0s0sWAVEo NOUVoUSAVWs
In this gathering there were At least
ninc-tenths Of all the late rebel generals,
who survived tho ruin with which they
sought to desolate the country. They
more enthusiastically than any others
urged the endorsement Of Greeley
These represent that large class Of men
now citizens-who yet cling to the
lost cause" aud who are willing rs
soon rs an opportunity shall otter. to
i"mersc, anew. the country in blood
FIR the redemption Of that cause.
With the rebel party at the South,
and the rebel Democrats at the
North-thc Republican sorc.hcads Of
the nation acting as body-guard-Mr.
Greeley starts upon journey which he
vainly hopes may terminate at the White
House. But suppose he becomes
President under such influences
the Southern Confederacy would
demand, we're he eligible, that
jeff: Davis be made Secretary Of
State. The Northern secessionists will
clamor to have Andy Johnson made
Secretary Of War, and the Pirate
Semmes placed in charge Of the Navy.
No matter who the others may be, these
spirits once in the Cabinet, and the
"Southeru heart" will be fred, the
right Of secession be re-assertcd and
the President, true to bis instincts, will
5nterposc no obstacle to the work Of
ACKNOWLEDGMENT.
All the bold, bad elements Of the
country which have ever organized for
political purposes are now arrayed in
support Of Mr.. Greeley. Tho Devil
has, this time, found some one to wor-
ship him, aud upon much easier terms
than those which he offered eighteen
hundred years ago. We are willing to
let Greeley return to his father, but We
object to his taking til, country with
him.

ss Stick to Your Bash. > -

Mr.. Morgan was rich, also a good
man. The people Of town respected
him, sent him to Congress, and seldom,
undertook anything without his advice
If school house was to be built, the
plan had to be talked over with him.
Widow p asked him what she
should plant in her field; Farmer S
- always got his advice in buy
ing cattle, and Mrs. R.--c consult
ed him about bringing up her boys.
When asked how he was SO SUCCESS
full, Mr.. Morgan said: IL will tell you
how it was. One day, when I was a
lad, party Of boys and girls were 60
ing to a distant pasture to pick whor-
tleberrics. l wanted to 60 with them,
but was fearful that my father would
not let me 60. When I told him what
was going on and he ut once gave me
permission to 80 with them, l could
hardly contain myself for joy and rush.
ed into the kitchen and got big bas-
ket aud asked mother for luncheon
l had the basket on my arm, and was
just going out OF the gate, when my
father called mo back. He took hold
Of my hand, and said, in gentle
voice
"Joseph, what are you going for, to
pick berries, or to play?"
ITO pick berries" / replied.
"Then, Joseph, I want to tell you
one thing. It is this. When you fin i
a pretty good bush, do not leave it to
6nd better one. The other boys and
girls will run about, picking little
here and little there, wasting a great
many berries. If you do us they do,
you will come home with an empty bas-
ket. If you want berries, stick to
your BUSH"
1 went with the party, and we had a
capital time. But it was just as my
father said. No sooner had one found
good bush than he called at the rest,
and they left their several places and
ran off to the new. found treasure. Not
content moro than a minute or two in
one place, they ran.blcd over the whole
pasture, got very tired, and ut night
had but very few berries. My fathers
words kept ringing in my ears, and L
stuck to my BUSH" When night came
l had large basketful Of nice berries,
more than all the others put together,
and was not half 50 tired US they were.
l went home happy. But when I en-
tered l found that my father had been
taken i'll. He looked ut my basket full
Of ripe whortleberries, aud said:
"Well done, Joseph. Was it not
just as l told you? Always stick to
your bush"
He died a few days after, and I had
to make my way in the world as best ]
could. But my fathers words sunk
deep into my mind, aud I never forgot
the experience Of the whortleberry par
ty-I "stuck to my bush"
When l had fair place, and was
doing tolerably we'll, I did not leave it
and spend weeks and months in finding
one little better. When other young
men said, "Come with us aud We
will make fortune in a few weeks" |
shook my head and "stuck to my
bush." Presently my employers Offer
ed to take uc into business with them
I stayed with the old house uotil the
principals died, and then l had every
thino I wanted The hafit IF st,ckinu
to my business led people to trust me,
and gave ME character. / owe all l
have and am to this motto" Stick to
your bush"

Small POx AMI Vaccination

At recent meeting of the Asylum
Board in London tho following facts
in relation to vaccination we're made
public: In all England during the past
twenty years the average mortality
from smal! pox has been only 1.9 per
10000 Of the population, and in Lon
don during the past ten years it has
been 20, and the city 1.6; whereas
last year it amounted to "a per 10000
Of the population Of London, and lis
per 10000 Of the city. 1t might be
interesting to know that, according to
Sir Gilbert Blanc, the average nortali-
ty from small pox in England before
vaccination was adopted was 80 per
every 10000 of the population.
From 1888 to 1910, when it was
much practised, but before any public
vaccinators had been appointed, it was
~ per 10000. From 1841 to 1853,
when it was still more in vogue, but
not compulsory, although provision was
made for gratuitous vaccination by pub
lie vaccinntors, it was 3 per 10000 !;
from 1854 to 1861, when it had become
compulsory by act Of Parliament, it
was IL per every 10000, and from
1864 until the present time it has been
at about the same proportion, though
in 1867 it was only L.; in 1868,
O.96 and in 1868, but OF. The chief
force Of the late epidemic wa. mani
tested for u period Of seven months,
and it reached its climax in the FIRST
week Of May, 1871. In the city small
pox began to be somewhat prevalent in
October, 1905 in the two following
months it was notably severe. The les
son to be learnt from the epidemic was
the danger Of neglected vaccination,
whether it be the primary vaccination
Of infancy or Of the secondary adult
