Kisses AND BlIssEs. The highest cx-

who have considered the subject in. all
its kissedness, is its mutnality. Hence

A YOUNG lady in a town near Dan.
bury has taken up dentistry for living.
All the gentlemen patronize her. When
she puts her arm around the neck of q
patient, and caresses his jaw for the
offending member, the sensation is
about as nice as they make 'em. One
young man has become hopelessly infat-
uated with her. Consequently he hasn't
a tooth in his head. She has pulled
every blessed one OF them; she is now
at work on his fathers saw. He holds
the saw.

THIS is story in Old and New: A
man had sold himself to the devil, who
was to possess him at a certain time
unless he could PROFOUND question to
his satanic majesty which he could not
answer, he being allowed to put queries
to him. The time came for the devil
to claim his own, and he consequently
appeared. The first question the man
asked was concerning theology, to
which it caused the devil no trouble to
reply. The second he also answered
without hesitation. The mans fate de-
pended on the third. What should it be?
He hesitated and turned pale, and the
cold dew stood on his forehead, while
he shivered with anxiety, nervousness,
and the devil triumphantly sneered.
At this iuncture the mans wife appear
ed in the room with bonnet on her
head. Alarmed at her husbands con-
dition, she demanded to know the cause.
When informed, she laughed and said,
II can PROFOUND question which the
devil himself cannot answer. Ask him
(which is the front of this bonnetr"
The devil gave it up and retired in dis
gust, and the man was free.

FOURTH DISTRICT CONGRESSIONAL Con-
vENTIoN.-This convention, held at Washing
ton, Warren Co., last Friday, was largely at
tended, and several very prominent men were
present. FREDERICK A. PORTS, of this cour-
ty, was nominated for Congress, and series
of able and sound resolutions were passt d.
The nomination of Mr. Potts is an excellent
one, and every Republican can vote for him
with the assurance of supporting sound and
true man.
In this connection we would say that we
are under obligations to the New Brunswick
F'edomiam for advance slips of their report of
the Convention, which unfortunately reached
us too late to make the extracts that we should
like to have made.

REpUBLroAN JAcKDAws.

Senator Frelinghuysen tells a good story Of
a certain jackdaw that one day CHANGED to fly
by pigeon house in which was quantity of
corn. The weather being very cold, and he
being hungry, he managed to get some white
paint on his wings and slipped into the pigeon
house unobserved and lived with the pigeons
on the corn until some of the paint was worn
off. The pigeons thereupon attacked him
and nearly picked him to death, and drove
this sore-head away. Becoming Disguised
with their treatment, he returned to his home
among the jackdaws-; but he had changed SO
much that the jaclxdaws fell upon him and
drove him from them in disgrace. We hope
our political jackdaws will take notice.

cor. HOFFMAN's SPEECH.

On last Wednesday evening, Governor Hoff-
man, of New York, on his way home from the
Doylestown meeting, favored our city with a
sight of one of the g Tammany ring" As the
train was half an hour behind time, some of
the Democrats decided that he should make q
speech, which he did The aristocratic men,
Der of tone of the first families of Manhat-
tan," condescended to stand in the door of our
dilapidated old depot, and talk to the common
people about their duties as citizens. We re-
greet that we were not present to hear his re-
marks. We are told that he talked of high
taxes, and of the corruption of Grants admin
istration. The Government taxes now are
principally confined to whiskey and tobacco,
which we must confess appears like rather
mean trick of a Republican Congress to throw
the greater part of the burthen on the other
party, and Gov. Hoffman and his friends, per-
haps, can justly complain. When he talks of
corruption, however, the word ought to choke
him. He understands the subject, we confess,
but a man who while Mayor of New York
signed fraudulent warrants for the Tammany
ring; and as Governor signed the g Erie "
bill 7; vetoed Mr.. Tilden's measure for bringing
the Tammany thieves to justice, and vetoed
every reform measure passed by the New York
Legislature last winter-is hardly the individu-
al to grow yirtuously indignant over the "cor-
ruptions Of others much less when he knows
his charges are false. At the close of the
speech. cheers were given for the speaker. ETC.,
and he left for his home in the model Demo-
cratic city where under his and succeeding adj
ministrations the city debt increased in three
years and eight months upwards of serenity
three and Mree-quarter millions Of dollars.
This under the pure rule of Democratic .re-
formers while under the corrupt " rule of
Grant, during the same period the National
debt was being paid at the rate Of about eight
and half saiilions per month.

NB- Mr. Greeley has answered the question
as to whether he is still secessionist. In his
speech at Pittsburg, he said:
81 demand that there should be fair,
open, free discussion before that Southern
people, and an honest, unterritied, unconstrain-
ed vote, and if they approved, If the people of
the South said they caAted diswaion, | WOULD
CONSENT TO IT.
To this, it is true, Mr.. Greeley added that
he knec the Southern people did not want in
dependence but he stated no facts which
justify that conclusion. Mr.. Greeley said in
1860 that the South did not want disunion--
but what sort of commentary did events sup
ply to his words? That there might be no
mistake in Mr.. Greeley's position ON this sub
ject, he went on to repeat his pledge in an
other form:
"And now, to-day, if the Nation was to be
imperrilled, and there We're just two modes of
saving it, TO trust to the chances of a civil war
or to a free vote of the Southern people,
would very greatly prefer to take the latter
chance rather than the former"
This atrocious sentiment alarmed Mr.. Gree
Cincinnati the next evening he was compelled
to take it back, which he did as follows -
'Last evening, at Pttsburg, in the course
of some off hand remarks to vast assem-
blage like this, took pains to explain the cir
cumstances the extraordinary unprecedented
circumstances, under which was impelled in
the Winter of 1860 to offer in good faith to
submit the whole question of union or dis
union to free unconstrained vote of the
Southern people. Those remarks which
made last evening have been misrepresented !;
have been, | think, perverted into an express
sion of present belief present conviction,
that any State has right to dissolve this
Union at its own good pleasure. Fellow-citi-
zens, I utterly repadidte and condemn that
sentiment. do not betiece that one State or
that ten States has a moral legal or consti-
tutional right to dissolve our Union"
Could anything more conclusively demon
strate the utter unfitness Of the man for the
position he seeks9 Wilful, wrong headed,
stubborn with no convictions according to his
own showing, that last twenty-four hours,

election were within the bounds of possibility 2

TO THE OLD 1NTT-SL4YERY MEN.
Now that Mr.. Greeley has given up his life
long convictions in regard to the Tariff, and
other Republican measures, / would call
your attention to his late apology to the former
shareholders of Kentucky, as to the views
which he says, she once had ON the subject"
What his present views are is exceedingly
questionable, as he claims the right to change
them every twenty-four hours. But such is
his intense desire to become President, that
he is willing to abandon all his moral convic-
lions and descend to depth of mcanness that
will forever tarnish his memory. The indig-
nation OF Anti-Slavery men at this UNI
looked-for and astounding betrayal will
make itself felt at the ballot-box with
spirit and power that will be a warning to all
recreants to the Republican party. Mr.. Gree
ley can turn his back on his moral convictions
for the sake of votes, but the people will hest
tate to displace Gen. Grant for demagogue.
I now refer to his speech at Jeffersonville, In
diana reported in his organ-1Ae Tribune of

Slavery, because thought Slavery inconsistent

viction."
Get the paper of that date and read it for
yourselves. Can this be Horace Greeley. Is
this the entertainment to which you are invited
Can you accept candidate so recreant to his
principles. He says he might have been mis-

The Law 10 Protect Timber on
Government Lands.

The law is drawing considerable at
tention in this Territory and otherparts
of the country at present; but the statute
having been practically obsolete in all
sections except the live-oak and cedar
districts of the Southern States, where
ship-timber reserves were situated, it
has seldom been published outside of
the Statutes at Large" and the gener-
al public hav not been posted as to its
stringent provisions The law is the
Act of March I'd, 1893, Section of
which reads as follows:
If any person or persons shall cut, or
cause to be cut, or aid, assist or be en-
ployed in cutting, or shall wantonlv
destroy, or cause or procure to be wan
tonly destroyd, or aid, assist or be EN-

oak or red-cedar tree or trees, or other

served or purchased for use of the Uni

shall remove or cause to be removed, or

outside Cape Flattery and offered his
services as pilot, but was refused. He
again offered to pilot the vessels when
outward bound, but his services were
again declined. Under these facts, the
law of the Territory entities him to half
pilotare, in the case of the Zella $129,
and the Traveller S143.
There has been an impression among
mill owners that the law of the Terrific
nv was invalid-and hence no pilot act
rg under it could collect his fees; and
masters of foreign ships have been uni
formly advised to refuse payment. The
pilots are determined i'll future to assert
their rights, and hence the suits above
referred to. This question whs authorI-
tatively settled by Judge Deadly OF the
United States District Court of Oregon,
in the case of the Panama. in which he
held tn, Act of our Territorial Assembly
valid, and sustained the right OF our
pilots to compensation for their services.
Since the above was written we are
informed that the master of the barque
Zellah has paid the fees, being fully sat
isfied of their legality.

CLEAN YoUR OCT-H T-HousEs.-The va
pors arising from sinks Is extremely dis
agreeable and unhealthy. and in warm
weather means shonld be taken to de-
compose it. This gas is combination
of sulphur and hydrogen, and is called
sulphurated hydrogen or sulphydric
acid, and blackens silver, copper, tin,
etc., with which it comes in contact,
forming sulphurates of these various
metals. Sulphydric acid gas is very de-
leterious to animal life; an atmosphere
containing ne-thousandth of its volume
of this acid will kill dog, and one two
hundreth-and-fftieth will destroy a
horse. Six or eight pounds of copperas
(the commercial sulphate of iron)
thrown into sink will suffice to decom-
pose the sulphydric acid and keep the
place free from unpleasant oder for two
or three months, and will not cost over
thirty cent. Every family in cities
should be required to use this agent two
or three times year. Prepared char
coal in powder (but In larger quantities)
will have the same effect. Also, liber-
al use of dry powdered earth or dust
from the road can be used with good eff
feet. OF this last material earth closets
are filled.
