| The ladies of the Monument Associa.
tion. in reply to communication in the
PHGN1x, signed Orphan. world briefly
say. in tue language of Scripture, that
they are doing great work, from which
they cannot come down. While they
interfere not with the business Of hers,
they must be allowed to pursue what
they consider emphatically Meirs-tho
building monument (though far from
being as costly as desired) to the memo
ry of their gallant defenders in the late
war.
While not in the least depreoiating
the claims of the orphans, connected as
they are with those of benevolence, they
must ever bear in mind the demands OF
patriotism, that ennobling virtue, re-
solving that, though their colntry 8
glory be in the pact, they will endeavor
not to let its memory perish, but per-
petuate it, in the most defined and en-
during manner, to this and succeeding
generations, trusting that the memory
Of the past will have gorm.iife for the
future. It is not always best to con-
soli1ate. Patriotism and benevolence
are two distinct virtues, that will, per-
haps, best subserve their respective pur-
poses by running parallel with each
other, though not amalgamating.
The Saviour.said to those urging the
exclusive claims Of the poor: ''The poor
ye have always with you. and, whenso.
ever ye will, ye may do them good, but
me ye have not always" showing that
ono virtue should not. like Aaron's rod;
swallow up all the rest.
"Duty never conflicts with duty"

that entirely useless will be any attem pit

LARGE DIVIDENDS In times like the
present, whom banks, bankers and mer-
cantile firms suspend; whom railroads
seem paralyzed, and dividends are
either reduced or altogether withheld,
it is consolatory to know that there is
one institution that is not only nm
shaken but unassailable. and which pays
large. almost fabulously large, dividends
as certainly as the dividend day comes
round. This great ipstitufion, now
familiarly known all over this. country
and Europe, is the Grand Gift Concert
of the Public Library of Kentucky; and
the dividend day is December 8, 1873,
when $1,000, 900 will be- distributed in
cash to the ticket holders. the largest
gift being $3.50. 900 and the smallest
$50 being -. 900 gifts in all. There is
no other institution ID the world that
pays such dividends as this. The di-
vidend day is near at band, and the
stock books will soon be closed. All
who wish to participate must invest at
once.

announcing that he will make that trip
to Europe i'll the Graphic'S silk balloon,
IN the spring, and in the meantime will
make frequent ascensions in paper
balloon. for tho purpose of testing the
Easterly current theory, The cotton
balloon, by the way, which ended its
voyage SO disastrously three weeks ago,
fell among tho Philistines. When the
Dronauts attempted TO gather up their
property and take it back to Now York,
oil Canaan (Connecticut) was aroused
The sharp-nosed Inhabitants came down
upon it with claims rs numerous as the
sands Of the Sound shore. One man
wanted $500 for damage to his fence;
another 500 for the mutilation of q
tree; about 100 minors brought claims
for five dollars each for helping to catch
the balloon, and threatened to destroy
everything if thoy were not paid. Even
the sheriff thought it was good op-
portunity to mulct the scientific
strangers. and laid on his fees. After
bleeding at every pore Of their pocket
books, Donaldson and Lunt managed
to rescue their property, and departed
out of Canaan, vowing that the next

would choose to do it among tho sharks
OF the soa rather than land sharks of the
