Ticket. This communication would
amount to nothing, but for the misrep-
reservations it contains, the WatchUOrd
and patriotic sentiment, which he
speaks of, has been freely used by him
and his Democratic friends, to seduce,
allure and strike the senses Of all men,
but the sophistry was too thinly yelled,
to captivate or mould the,minds of a ma
iority of the people of this State, to the
views ofthe Democracy, not-withstand-

thank him for his aspersions on the

The Springfield Patriot has the fol.
lowing gospel on advertising:
We n read Of an Indian who had
been told that feather beds were u lux,
ury. To test this he placed 4 feather
on a large rock and lay down Oh it lie
arose with all oath, thoroughly convinc.
ed that feather beds were humbugs
Just so with a great many business
men. they hear much said about the
advantages ofadvertising; so they trem,
blingly insert a small notice OF their
business in the paper, and iftrade does
not treble itself in two or three weeks
order it out, and ever after turn up thcil
noses at the bare mention of advertis'
ing. You are mistaken, gentlemen
1t is the only sure road to success, a;
ALL prominent sure business men have
reached the topnost round ofthe ladder
of prosperity.

How to Go East"
By the Kansas City. ST. Joseph &
Burlington Route.

Though last not least" is an old adage
as true as it is old, and its truth is again
exemplified by the completion Of tho New
Line to the East ria CrestoD and Burling-
ton. which, though the last, may be called
the best route in the West.
The Line consists of the Kansas City,
st. Joseph & Council Bluffs X. r., with
two daily trains from Kansas City. through
Atchison, i~eaycnworth and st. Joseph to
the Missouri St,.c Line, there connecting
with the Burlington Route, which lends
direct to Chicago, Cincinnati, lndianapo-
lis, Logansport and Columbus-through
cars are being run to all these points.
This Line is well built, thoroughly
equipped with every modern improvement.
including Pullman's Sleeping and Dining
Cars, and nowhere else can the passenger
so completely depend on a speedy, safe and
comfortable journ~y.
The Burlington Route has admirably
answered the query, How 10 go East,
by the publication of an interesting and
truthful document, containing Il valuable
and correct Map, which can be obtained
free of charge by addressing General
Passenger Agent b. & NJ. II. r. r, Bur
lington, Iowa.

nomination for the Presidency from the

that the Governor is now, and has al

HARPER,S MAGAZINR.

No more delightful travels are printed in
the English language than appear perpetual
" in Harper's Magazine. They are read with
equal interest and satisfaction by boys of
every age, from eighteen to eighty.
Its scientific papers, while sufficiently pro-
found to demand the attention of the learn
ed, are yet admirably adapted to the popu-
lar understanding, and designed as much to
diffuse correct information concerning eur
rent scientific discovery as it could be if it
was the organ OF the society for the Diffu-
sion of Useful knowledge"
The great design of Harper's is to give cor
rect information and rational amusement to
the great masses of people, There are few
intelligent American families III which Har-
pers Magazine would not be an appreciated
and highly welcome guest.

HARpER,S BAZAR.

Free from all political and sectarian discus
sion, devoted to fashion, pleasure, and in
struction it is Just the agreeable, compaa-
ionable, and interesting paper which every
mother and wife and sweetheart will require
every son, husband, and lover to bring home
with them every Saturday evening .-Phila-
deiphia Ledger.
This paper at the outset occupied place
not filed by any American periodical, and
won for itself Il deserved popularity. 1t is
really the only illustrated chronieler of fash
ions in the country. Its supplements alone
are worth the subscription price of the paper.
While fully maintaining its position us q mir
ror of fashion, it also contains stories, poenIs
brilliant essays, besides general and person
al gossip. The publishers appear to have
spared no labor on expense necessary to make
the Bazaar the most attractive journal that
can possibly be iAadc.-BoSton Saturday Ere

Merchants in Pittsburg keep can
non in front of their doors to keep
the Boston drummers away. But
Yankee ingenuity will overcome al
most every difficulty. One dark night
one of these drummers dawled down
and loaded one of those cannon with
his goods. The next morning he
stood opposite and yelled "ya! ya!"
at the man who owned the store until
he got mad and fred the cannon off,
sending the drummer's sample into a
store opposite. That was his little
game. He entered and demanded his
samples, and actually sold the man a
bill of goods from those samples be-
fore he left the store.

be compensated for declining the nom-
inatinl for Secretary of State rendered
him BY the Packard Convention, by
being appointed to a fat position in
the Internal Revenue Department.

hesitate to ascribe it to the sensiI le
reason that he knew he could not be
elected to the Office of Secretary of
State if he did accept the nomination.

A German poet has lately written a
touching poem, in which the hero is
represented as devoured by alligators
under palm-tree on the shore OF Lake
Erie, in America. The heroine hears
of the dreadful fate of her lover down
in the everglades of Florida, near the
banks of Lake Superior, where she is
living, and rtlshes down South to Lake
Erie and lays wait for that crocodile,
captures him, cuts him open, extracts
the bones of her dead lover, purchases
a rich coffin, and has him inferred in
magnificent style i'll Greenwood
Cemetery, in New York, in the State
of ST. Louis. The poem is too at
