Spontaneous Evap09ation.

contact with Greeley 'iermenta-

Among the enterprising improv-
ments going on in. our city, We are
glad to note the great change in
the appearance for the better. of
the Friends (Hicksite's) Burying
Ground, on Ft. Wayne Avenue.
The bluff at the N. E. corner has
been graded over even with the
street in front, the new made
ground has been sown in grass.
Virgins street on the west side is
being graded, and plain picket
fence now surrounds an four sides
of the cemetery; the pavement on
the Avenue is being graveled and
shade trees have been set out
This little city Of the dead, has
lost the gloomy look it SO long
had, and now has the air of park
Much credit is due the Society of
Friends for the change so greatly
wrought.

Doc. CHECKS We asked the
Mayor TO explain in regard to this
thing Of killing dogs that are un-
checked-where authority was to
be found for such summary process.
The Mayor referred u to the Or
dinance made and provided for
SUI u cases, the 9th section gives
the authority, and he is of opinion
that the only course for him to
pursue is too rigidiy follow the adj
vice given by President Lincoln,
that, when law is manifestly Cd.
Gus or unjust, the best way to get
rid of it is 10 vigorously enforce
it, and this he is determined to do
so far as lays within his power.
We think the law is clearly wrong.
that confers on the police the priv
ilege of killing unchecked dogs.
and good lawyers think our SUI
preme Court would so decide if q
case were brought before it. As
long as it is a law, however. our
Mayor is bound to see sit properly
and rigidly executed Our opinion
rs a disiLterested party, is, that,
whenever q dog killing policeman
goes on this Grand, and finds an
animal in the door-yard or at the
door of its owners house, With
out the necessary Sign of being en-
titled to life, the slayer should ask
the owner if he purposes to COM
ply with the law, and thus give
him an opportunity to save the
life Of an animal that he may value
highly. This would look more hui
name, and would save hard feel-
ings. Try it, Mr.. Policeman.

The leading engraving in this number
is that Of q most lovely lady on . bal

full picture. "Moonlight At Sea" is also
something exquisite. The illustrations

!a President, 1877,
Uly ses s. Grant.

We make the above announce
ment, not to attract special no
tice, or to indicate extra-officiOus
zeal, but because it expresses
OUR MOST EMPH A TIC
PREFERENCE, and we don't
see why we should not say so.
Gen. Grant, in some eminent re-
spects, has shown himself as
much superior in civil as in mil
itary affairs. He has promptly
taken positions and assumed re-
sponsibilities which no mere
politician, of the ordinary run
Of our statesmen, would have
dared to do. Take for instance
his direct announcement in his
inaugural address in favor Of Ne
gro Suffrage. The party which
elected him. had lodged the
question in its platform. What
other men, outside of the pro-
nounced Radicals, but would
have followed that example as
President, and lodged, or at
least postponed declaration on
the subject? But not SO with
Grant. An old-tilno Democrat
before the war, he at once de-
monstrated the soundness Of his
conversion, the frank heroism CT
his nature, as well as the high
est craftsmanship, by taking the
bull by the horns.
In like manner on the subject
of the payment Of the National
Debt, on which, also, his party
had trimmed and prevaricated,
he did not hesitate to take the
responsibility of a clear state
ment Of his position, at the i'm
minent hazard Of his popularity.
Again, bis putting the man
sgement Of our Indian Affairs
in Quaker hands, shows a mind
much above the grade Of the
mere politician-a practical wis.,
dom which is being vindicated by
results.
Last, but not least, we ap
plaud his prompt, manly, HEARTY
recognition of the French Re-
public. How refreshing it was
to every true man to hear cur
Chief Magistrate speaking right
out in meeting on that subject!
10 halting-no equivocation.
It was an example amidst the
senseless pro-Prussian folly
which had swept over the coun.
try, and showed that we have a
President Of eminent democratic
proclivities.
These FEW POINTS alone in his
record, among MANY SIMILAR, give
to the world in GENERAL GRANT,
ASSURANCE OF A MAN. To which
let US not forget to add, that HE
has FAITHFULLY REDEEM
ED ALL HIS PLEDGES TO

RALLYING RHYME.

There's rally ing sound Of fife and drum
On the busy street 10 night,
And hundred men march up and down
Carrying torches bright;
And it bears me back 10 the solemn time
When the sound of marching feet,
From morn till night, to the bugle call,
Went echoing down the street.
I see, in fancy, the banner bright,
And the soldiers blouse of blue
And the stalwart forms of the volunteers,
With bsyonets, bright and new;
And once again, like dreadful dream,
There flashes over the wire
Tho stunning news of battle lost,
Mid courage, and smoke, and FIRE.
And tears from thousand sad eyes fall,
And the land il draped in woe
1 brave republic il crushed to earth
And seems in its final throe;
But out of the land Of the brave northwest
Came one whose words were few,
With an earnest heart to turn the tide,
Or die with the boys in blue.'
And over the broad savannas
He swept with conquering tread,
And into the ensmy's stronghold
His troops victorious led;
And who should stand BY the rudder
OF the dear old Ship of State,
Bat the pilot who steered her safely through
The breakers of old He'll Gate?
Three cheers for the honest pilot!
Who steered ,gainst wind and wave,
With an earnest purpose and fearless heart,
The Old Ship of State to save!
