Gen. Edwin Stanton McCook, whose as
sassination at Yankton, Dacota, has been
announced, was a native of Columbiana
county, Ohio, and fifth son of Major Daniel
McCook, who fell at the head of Morgan's S
pursuers in the action at Burlington Island
July 81, 1868.
During the late war he entered the mill
tary service as Captain of the 31st Illinois
Infantry, and won promotion by meritori-
ous service, becoming a General of cavalry
in the Army of the Cumberland. When
the war closed, he was appointed Secretary
of Dacota, position he creditably filled up
to the date of his death.
General McCook was one of eight broth
ers, all of whom did gallant service in the
Union army, the following three attesting
their patriotism by the sacrifice of their
lives. Charles Morris McCook, private Of
the Second Ohio, who was killed at the Bull
Run battle, July 21, 1861, in the eighteenth
year of his age; Bridadier General Robert
L. McCook, who was assassinated by rebe
guerrillas while lying sick in his ambulance
near Decherd, Tenn, in August, 1862; ano
Brigadier General Daniel McCook, who was
mortally wounded at Kenesaw Mountain
June 27, 1864.
The only three of the brothers now living
are Colonel George W. McCook, of Steu
benville; Major General A. Mcdowell Nc
Cook, now of the regular army, serving il
Texas, and Captain John McCook, who is
engaged in the practice of law.

In 1867 we had Bourbon reaction
in Ohio, and the Democratic party
obtained a majority in both branches
of the Legislature. From the prom
ises the leaders and press of the par.
ty had made during the canvass, the
people had reason to expect from il
great reduction of public expendi
lures, and especially of taxation.
How these promises were redeemed
can be made to appearin few words
The taxes for all purposes, in Ohio
in 1867, were S20,253,615. In 1868
after the Democratic Legislature had
retrenched, they rose to S20,4S9, 14S
In 1869, after the Democracy had
still further retrenched, the amount
was $22, ,232,S77. Here then was al
increase of 81 ,979,262 in Ohio taxa
ton after two years of Democratic
retrenchment. The reform we would
get now, were the experiment of 1861
to be repeated, would probably be o
the same quality.

In his late address before the In
diana Exposition, Senator Morton
made statement having an impor-
tant bearing upon the eheapening Of
railway transportation. He said, on
the authority of a leading Pennsyl-
vania iron-master, that steel rails
could be made as cheaply, and would
last seven or eight times as long as
iron ones. If such are the facts,
there can be no doubt that steel rails
will come into general use, and make
very important reduction in the
cost of operating railways. The Sen
ator further stated, in the same con-
nection, that he had in his possession
a proposition from distinguished
capitalist of Holland to build four
track railway, laid with steel rails,
from New York to some point in
Ohio OF Indiana, two of the tracks
diverging thence to Chicago, and two
to st. Louis. No Government aid is
asked, the only condition Of the prop
osition being that the road shall be
chartered by Congress.

The Marriage Question.

have seen very many cases of the sup
posed can't-afford-to-marry disease, and ex-
amined many, and always found the symp-
toms to prove another complaint altogether
The diagnosis had been utterly false. Is
was on't-want-to-marry trouble that was
affecting the patient. This was the story ::
Formosa had dwelt in marble halls, and
clothed herself in acres of purple and fine
linen. Marriage with her means twenty
thousand year. So I look at my two
thousand, and can't afford to marry Or the
story was this: Pulchra wishes to dwell in
marble halls, and clothe herself in acres of
purple and fine linen. Marriage with her,
therefore. means twenty thousand year.
So I look at my two thousand year, and
can't afford to marry. Formula-wise and
truth-wise it is this: "Foolish girls wish
to live idle, pampered and fashionable
lives, and foolish young men are seeking
after the foolish girls" In such compli-
cation marriage loses its meaning, and it
is very natural for young man to say, 81
can't afford to marry after the style afore.
said, and he does not wish to marry in a
sensible style, to which his two thousand
would say amen. But they are not all fool
ish girls in the world. There are girls Of
simple tastes, modest mien, industrious
habits and unselish hearts. You are moi
apt to find them in the highway or in con.
spicuous places. They make the best wives
in the world, while the Saratoga thing
makes the worst. Look for them at home
not in society-the izzing, bubbling cal
dron, where pride, vanity and vapidity
seasoned with vice, sputter into assimila
ton. Find them helping in nursery, pantry
or kitchen; not sauntering with brazer
stare on frequented promenade, or dwell
ing among French novels in the boudoir.-

Small MOralities.

There's many a man who would
not all at once rob his fellow man of
all that he owns, yet would remorse-
lessly do it by five and ten cent
notes.
There's many woman who would
not cut her neighbor's flesh, who will
yet stab her to the heart by tongues
thrust at her character.
There's many a man who would
not in words cheat and deceive any
woman, but will yet do so most cru
ely and fatally by manner, .look and
act; and there's many a woman too,
who will do the same.
There's many a person who does
all great things upon principle, but
who goes by impulse alone in the
smaller (which are the more impor-
tant) affairs of life.
There's many person who would
not for anything neglect scripture
reading, praying, church going or
even almsgiving, yet who will fret and
whine, and growl all the day long,
making everybody about them un-
comfortable.
There's many man who is as Just
as Aristides to all beyond his own
family circle, but who is more unjust
than the veriest tyrant to all within.
There's many person that reads,
meditates and sings most devotedly
by the hour, who yet hugs the abiect
snake of selfshness, and that cruel
asp of hatred in constant embrace.
There's many person who tries to
be religious, but never tries to be no
bic minded, tolerant, polite and agree
able, and always clean from head to
foot.
There's many person who aims
to be ever true, but who forgets to
be always kind. Many a man whose
honor in large affairs is worthy Of
praise, who in the small, unexpected
matters of each day, has no honor at
all.

ssThe Old Norman. ,,

1t was thus, few days since, that
we heard STRIPPING of eighteen des-
ignate the mother who bore him. By
coarse husbands we have heard their
wives called SO occasionally, though
in the latter case the term is used en-
dearingly. At all times, as common
ly spoken, it jars on the ear and
shocks the sense.
An old woman should be the object
Of reverence above and beyond most
other phases of humanity-her age
should be her surest passport to
courteous consideration.
She has fought faithfully the good
fight, and come off conqueror. Upon
her venerable face she bears the mark
of the conflict in every furrowed line.
The most grieVous of the ills of
life has been hers; trials untold,
known only to herself and God, she
has borne incessantly; and now, in
her old age-her duty done, patient
ly awaiting her appointed time-she
stands more honorably deserving
than he who has slain his thousands
or stood triumphant upon the proud
est field of victory.
Young man, speak kindly to your
mother, and even courteously, tender
ly of her But little time and you
will see her no more forever. Her
eye is dim, her form is bent, and her
shadow falls forward.
Others may love you when she has
passed away-kind sisters, perhaps,
or she whom of all others you have
chosen for partner-she may love
you warmly, passionately, children
may love you fondly, but never again,
never while time is yours, shall the
love of woman be to you as that of
a fond mother whose warm heart has
forever ceased to beat.

The Highest Town in the Uni
ted States.

ted States.
IFairplay (COl) Letter to the New York Times.l
This town lies at the head of South
Park, on the mountain route between
Denver and Santa Fe, ninety-five
miles from the former place. 1t is
noted as the supply point for Mount
Lincoln mining district. 1t has a
population of about one thousand,
with the usual number of stores,
hotels and saloons, besides two banks
and a weekly newspaper. 1t is the
highest town in the United States,
its altitude being 9,764 feet, nearly
two miles above sea-level, and $500
feet higher than Mount Washington.
It's inhabitants, while never expert
encing the ''heated term" yet from
June to September have the luxury
of moderately warm days and coo
nights, the monotony being occasion
ally relieved by snow storm in Au-
gust. Mount Lincoln towers above
the place to a height of over $4,000
feet. All along its sides, to within a
few yards of the top, often enveloped
by clouds, and often above them,
miners and prospectors are busy de
veloping or seeking new discoveries.
By wagon road and pack trail the
summit is distant twelve miles. On
the way we pass new mining camps
of Dudley and Alma, and nearly three
miles above the level of the sea, the
clouds often yelling the valleys from
their sight, and seeming to shut them
out from the world, we find twenty
miners working the "Montezuma'
lode, and taking out ore that runs
from 100 to 800 ounces of silver to
the ton. A wagon road is nearly
finished to the top of Mount Lincoln,
making it the most accessible of the
high peaks in Colorado.

TIE FUTURE LIFE.


By WIZ. CULLEN BRYANT.
How shall know thee in the sphere which keeps
The disembodied spirits of the dead,
When all of thee that time could wither sleeps,
And perishes among the dust we tread?
For shall feel the sting of ceaseless pain 2
If there meet thy gentle presence not,
Nor hear the voice love, nor read again
In thy serenest eyes the tender thought. p
Win not thy own meek heart demand me there
That heart whose fondest throbs to me were given
My name on earth was ever in thy prayer,
And wilt thou never utter it in Heaven? --..
The love that lived through all the stormy past,
And meekly with my harsher nature bore,
And deeper grew, and tenderer, to the last,
Shall it expire with life, and be no more?
A happier lot than mine, and larger light,
Await thee there, for thou hast bowed thy viii,
In cheerful homage to the rule of right, @ O.
And lowest al, and renderest good for i'll.
Yet, though thou wear'st the glory of the sky,
Wilt thou not keep the same beloved name,
The same fair, thoughtful brow, and gentle eye.
Lovelier in Heavens sweet cline, and yet the
same?
Shalt thou not teach me, in that calmer home,
The wisdom that learnt so i'll in this
The wisdom which is love-tin become
Thy fit companion in the land of bliss?
