A Ticklish Question in Ethics...

In speech made by the colored
orator, Frederick Douglass, in North
Carolina, during the late canvass,
he gave some amusing incidents of
his life as . slave, and among
others, the following: 81 was hun

fiuttering in one Of the outhouses.

kins) that I was hungry, wanted
something to eat, but that had re-
ligious scruples against helping N.Y.
self to that turkey. I knew that he
was . praying man, , God-fearing
man, and I wanted his advice on
the subject. He told me that it was
rather ticklish question in ethics.
There was some risk about it, but
so far as the act itself was concern
ed, it was perfectly Legitimate. He
said: You are your masters pro.
pertyS' YES said l. That turkey
is your masters property?' Yes
IF you put that turkey into you

to be the property Of your master,
but only adds to the value of the
property in another FORM So it
was simply question of removal.
I said that it stood to reason, the
whole thing was clear to reason, and
l helped myself" Great laughter.

eel, tells story of himself, and how
he was wicked enough once to pass
bogus half dollar. We hasten to
say that the deed was done when
he was 4 boy, and when he had
little knowledge Of money of any
kind. The fraud was executed
upon nearly blind man, who kept
a toll gate. through which young
Griswold passed every morning to
school. We continue in the words
of the narrator: "The next time !
passed through tho toll gate, the
old man came hobbling out and
hailed me. He had the bogus coin
in his trembling hand, and asked me
in shrill treble if knew that it was
counterfeit; and if l was also aware
that I was liable to a term in the
State Prison for passing it ON the
keeper Of a toll gate through which
passed the United States mail. !
was in great alarm; but professed
ignorance as to the nature of the
coin, like the untruthful boy I was
until I got to writing for the, news
papers, told him q stranger had
passed it on me, aud promised to
redeem it. He said he would give
just two days to redeem it in, and
if it wasn't done by that time he
should open proceedings againt me,
Those were his precise words, I re-
Misunderstanding proceedings"-

ble import they conveyed. Then
he gave me q severe lecture on tho

SIGN OF
The Big Hat

AS the sign denotes, it is tru-
ly a Hat Store, both for Ladies
and Gents. Every person who
visits Independence is familiar
with Turner'S Millinery and Fur
nishing Goods Store. Last spring
they added to their stock in the
shape of Gents Hats and Fur
nishing Goods, making it truly
a Hat Store. We say it land
without boasting), that we have
as large and AS fine an assort-
ment as can be found in any
store of our class Of goods west
of Chicago.
To the Ladies (as usual), we
solicit a share Of your patronage.
To the Gents ts-remember it is
truly, surely, and the only Hat
Store in the city. Our Facility
and Experience for purchasing
stock is second to none; expeh-
ses small; consequently our
prices We guarantee. 0

crime of passing counterfeit money,
dwelling on the enormity of the
offcnse, declaring that if he could
have the making OF the laws every
man who passed bogus money should
be hung for life!" The unhappy
boy failed to raise the money. 1.-The
next day I went to town, trying
hard to get through the gate with.
out the old man seeing me; but no
use. He ran out and hailed me. /
pretended not to hear. He then
ran down the road and overlook me.
He seized me by the arm and
wheezed in my ear, amid cunning
chuckles, "It's all right, my boy;
you won't have to raise the money.
/ passed that bogus half dollar my
self!'" There is moral here
somewhere. We trust the reader
will find it.

The DIFFxRENcE.-Hon. w. G.
Donnan, the Republican candidate
for Congress, has an honorable dis.
charge from . long and honorable
service in the Union army. His
competitor, Mr.. Johu 7. Stoneman,
during that service, report says, was
disparaging the Union cause aud
aiding to break down the currency
and thereby stop the war against
the rebels by declaring that green
backs would soon 'sbe worth no
more than the leaves ON the trees. y

Mr.. Stanton's permanent resi-
dence in Washington was forced
upon him against his will. His
constantly increasing practice. as
he approached the meridian splen-
dor Of his legal attainments, finally
occupied all his time before the Su-
preme Court of the United States.
On his arrival at the national capi-
tai he quietly procured an unosten-
tatious suit Of rooms, and putting
on the door-post to their street en-
trance the modest and well-worn
sign he brought from Steubenville,
Ohio, he was prepared for business;
and the sign was never taken down
while Mr.. Stanton lived. 1t was in
this eliminating era of his stndious
life (ls59) when nothing but the
absorbing routine Of lawyers life
interested him, that he was one
morning, while in his Office, and al
ways before his clerks made their
appearance, confronted by a tall,
ungainly-looking Western man, who
upon holding out his hand, was first
greeted with q look from those
strange, dreamy eyes which habitu-
ally glanced through Mr.. Stanton's
spectacles, and the next instant
Abraham Lincoln and Edwin M.
Stanton warmly greeted each other.
They were associate counsel in the
great "M'Cormick Reaper Case" "
which ut that time, from the large
pecuniary interest involved attract
ed public attention.
How little these two men at that
instant understood the mighty fu-
ture in which they were to be asso-
ciated as promipe ent actors! But
Providence ordained that in this
humble and unromantic way Mr..
Lincoln should become intimately
acquainted with the sympathetic
heart, unflinching patriotism and
iron firmness Of Mr.. Stanton, upon
which last.named quality Mr.. Lin
coin, in the darkest hours of his
tribulations at the White House,
was destined to lean for support.
1t would be sadly interesting, now
that both these men sleep in the
grave, if the casual conversations
| Of Mr.. Stanton and Mr.. Lincoln at
this time could be read by living
men. It is not difficult to imagine
how Mr.. Lincoln's common sense
and practical knowledge Of the value
| Of tho Mccormick reaper, which had
| aided SO much in the development
| Of the wealth of the prairies Of Hi.
nois. illuminated the hard, dry, lc-
gal experience Of Mr.. Stanton, and

20 deep brown eyes," sang gay OetOber,
Deep brown eyes running over with giees
Blue eyes are pale, and gray eyes are SOBER;
Bonnie brown eyes arc the eyes 1or me-
"Black eyes shine in the glowing summer,
With red Of rose and yellow Of corn;
But cold they close when the still lAte-comsf,
Silvery Frost, creeps over the morn.
..Blue eyes simmer with angel glances,
Like spring violets over the lea
But oh, my Grapes, my Wines and my Dances,
What have angels in common with ME!
"Ge, Gray Eyesi What know ye OF Laughing
Giddv with glee from the mere sunsnine!
Go to your bOOksi What know 70 OF quamng
Luscious juice from the riotous vines
"All the earth is full of frolicking;
Growing 10 over; harvest te done;
All the trees are ready for roIitcklng,
Glowing scarlet with rustical fan.
"Stay, Brown Eyes, in the purple weather,
A crown Of oak leaves with maple blent
Shall deck your brow, while gAyly tOgether
We two will wander to hearts content"
Thus October's wild voice wae singing,
While ON his pipe he cunningly played;
All the red woods with music were ringing.
And Brown Eyes listened, with fOotstep

Waited to hear the song beguiling,
Listened and laughed through the sunny day
And earth and sky fell to merry smiling
As hand in hank they wandered away.
