BEING SOCIABLE.

Some people display wonderful tact
for unsociability. 1t is not so much by
their silence, their modesty, or their re-
serve, as by peculiar disposition they
manifest-an undefnable atmosphere IN
which they envelope themselves SO as to
repel the advances and resist the invita-
tons CT others. Indeed, silence IS not
inconsistent with social feelings, and
those who say little and listen much and
well are always popular society. 1t was
Miss Edgeworth who, after talking with
charming and incessent volubllity to a
deaf mute for an hour, remarked that he
was one of the most intelligent and inter
esting persons she had ever met. Ot-
tentimes those who talk the most have
least real sociability. Their gable hides
their utter want Of social feeling ana
personal sympathy. Their prattle, IS
purely selfish, mechanical, and COLD
Volubility and vacancy seem to be natur-
ally related to each other, and some
times the tongue is the substitute tor
thought Instead of its organ. SoclabllI-
ty aud loquacity may co-exlst IN the
same person: but generally the one
who talks the most thinks and feels the
least.
True sociability is. matter OF sentl-
ment. of mind, of character, rather than
words. 1t comes from surplus OF
sympathy, of kind feelings, OF personal
regards, of contagious interest In things
and thoughts. 1t is the overflow Of the
generous and kindly qualities OF the
heart, those which make Us social beings,
those which bind Us most closely, and
tenderly to others and the family to
which we belong. Ali real interest IN
others, all quick and generous sympathy
all desire to communicate with others,
and share in their experiences, anG par
ticipate in their life. enter as coDstltu-
ents into a true sociability.

VICTORY NNEBRAsKA

ried the great central States for their
party and their Presidential candidate,

The Meaning of GreeIeyjsn.
From the Cincinnati Tlm,s.1


A prominent gentleman of this city
and Democrat In politics-has just
shown US a letter received by him from
highly respectable citizen from Geor-
gia, bearing date Oct. Sd, the day fol-
lowing the election, which contained
most lmportent revelations as to the
reign of terror prevailing in Georgia.
We are permitted to make the following
extracts-and we personally vouch for
their NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. subjecting
the writer to imminent peril by disclo-
sing his name or residence. He says
1.-The election was carried yesterday
in this State by fraud force, gunpow-
der and lead. Colored men and white
Republicans were shot down like sheep
killing dogs at the polls, for daring to
exercise. the right given them by the
Constitution to vote, or use the elective
franchise. -
In this county. where the Republicans
have clear majority of 700, and cast
1900 to $500 votes, only about 200
were polled yesterday, Early in the
morning, or rather at midnight, the
Democrats took possession of the polls
lat Macon) and voted about $50 votes
by half after seven O. clock in the morn
ing, and when the Republicans formed
line to march to the poles, without arms,
knife or stick, the Democrats commen-
ced firing upon them, and being unarm-
ed, they broke and ran from danger,
and not withstanding they ran, the der
as continued to fire, shooting them down
like dogs.
If Grant is defeated. thousands of u.
will leave our native homes and move
North for safety. The State govern.
ment will not protect US. A military
government many of US would welcome
as blessing. Then our wives and chill
dren would be safe.
You will see Democratic statements
putting it (the Macon affair all upon
the colored man, but | declare to you
in advance, that it will be, and is, an in
famous lie. Nobody is responsible for it
but Democrats, and if Greeley is elect
ed, there will commence a war of races,
and the poor, ignorant colored man will
be destroyed. You have no idea of the
reign of terror that will prevail in the
South. | am even now afraid to show
myself or expose myself at home after

Music Music is one of heavens
choicest gifts to man. 1t is the language
of the heart spoken in sweet, melodious
strains. 1t is token Of that finer part
of nature which, when brought forth,
glistens like the diamonds in the souls of
all There is an enchantment and tasci-
nation about it which words fail to por-
tray. What power and meaning there
is contained in that little word Music,
even though it is lightly spoken. Who
could be so british that when listening
to the sweet strains of it he would not
feel his very soul stirred within? Who
so hard hearted that the sweet melodies
of it waited on the evening air would
not make All impression ON his mind, and
melt that coarser part of his nature,
causing memories of the past to rise up
in a current so strong as to soften INTO
meek submission his wilful mind? Who
SO unfeeling but what its strains will
touch the tendermost cords of the heart
Who so unthoughtful but what it will
awaken the emotions of the soul? Nature,
itself, is great harmonious choir given
us by God, and from it we should par
take OF its teachings. for it is given to
all. Even as we approach the lowest
hovel, we hear the voice OF the mother
singing some familiar air to the child.
There is an inspiration about it which
all things else fail to give.
Who has ever listened to our national
airs without feeling a sense of pride,
and his very soul awakened by the in
spiration and enchantment which they
give? Who has not, in his meditative
hours at twilight, had waited to him on
the evening air the sweet and touching
strains of music, and during that time
lived his life over again 1t is a gift
from the hand of God and we should
cultivate it as a part of ourselves. be-
lieving in the beautiful theory that its
strains meyer die, but are taken up by
the angels and carried to heaven to live
forever

NEW THEOLOGY.

The Springfield Republican has an
nounced this week that 1.-THE essence and
the basis and the hope of the Liberal
movement are found in the principles of
| the Christian religion and tina. 1.-The
Cincinnati platform is the outgrowth Of
the Sermon on the Mount" This in
formation will take a good many people
| by surprise, and, if true, ought certainly
to have been communicated to the peo-
| pie at an earlier period in the canvass,
| for very few, if any, have even suspected
| anything of the kind since Greeley's
| nomination. In the first place, it is
rather odd that body pious enough to
take the Sermon on the Mount for its
platform should have planted on 1t, as
| candidate, the most obstreperOuS old
war horse" and one Of the widest and
most INSCRIPTIONS vltuperators the
country contains and, In the second
place, people ind it hard to believe that
a movement has Its essence and base
and hope in the Christian religion of
which one Of the first effects has been to
set hundreds Of newspapers and humid
areds of orators lying and equivocatlng
tor Its defense and propagation. There
is no Democratic editor or Democratic
orator now in the field for Greeley who
does not in his heart despise and dislike
Greeley, and yet he is daily engaged in
trying to pursuade his countrymen that
Greeley Is great statesman and an able
and honest man. The fact is, if we were
going to take theological view of the
matter, it must be admitted that no
movement in American history has set IN
motion so much of the devils machine
ry, is doing so much of the devils work,
or is in all its methods so hostile to the
principles which lie at the basis of chris
tian1ty. In saying this, toe, we have the
pro slavery movement IN our mind.
Shareholders were honest men. They be-
lioved what they preached, and showed,
when the occasion came, that they knew
how to die for it; but you, Greeleyite
brethren, do not, even one half of you,
believe what you say about Greeley. You
know he is not what you represent him
to be !; in other words, you are engaged
in game of imposture on gigantic
scale; and to talk Of Christianity in con-
nection with your movement or your
hopes" or your Essence, or your
basis, is to blaspheme it, Christiani-
ty is a religion of love, but it is also
religion of truth. 1t commands men to
forgive their enemies, but it also com.
mands them to stop lying and deceiving.

COMRADES We, your representatives
met at Pittsburg and adopted a series
of resolutions which you have already
seen. You have discovered that we
expressed sentiments which are enter
tanned almost unanimously by the vet
Grams of the country. In view of the
fact that MIR. Greeley has charged US
with the desire to engender feelings OF
hate towards the survivors of those who
were in armed rebellion against the gov
ernment, we desire to reiterate our wish
that all differences may be obliterated
| with this one single condition, that I'M
der no circumstances will we support a
man for Chief Magistrate of the nation
who, in the hour of his country's great
est danger did not appreciate the situa:
ton, and, by words or acts, step forward
to its defense. 81.
We deny that one single word, either

Convention, justifes MIR Greeley in the
remarks which he uttered at Pittsburg,

you the great Importance Of the issues

that you will organize throughout the en-
