EDITORS CHRONICLE: We have as
vet failed to note in your columns any
expression of the feeling in this county,
n regard to the Congressional canvass,
now in progress, and suppose that 1t
may prove Of some interest to the
voters of the District to know how
" Union stands upon the question,
We think we are reliably and fully
informed, as to the strength of the
respective candidates for Congressional
honors, nor are we in anyway biased
Dy prejudice i'm forming our opinions.
Judge Houk has very little strength
with am party in this county, and in
case we have a Convention TO decide
upon his merits i'm connection with
hose of Col. Thornburgh, will not in
all probability receive the vote Of a
single delegate. Col. Thornburgh, on
the contrary can carry the county over
any opposition with which he may
nave to contend by IAN overwhelming
majority, and i'm a Republican prelim-
mary convention will receive its unan-
imous vote. If Houk should even be
the nominee of the Republican party,
and strong popular ConserS
yative is nominated, the latter will
beat him in this county by large
majority.
These are the facts in regard to this

Oatmeal, Bone and Muscle.

Liebig has shown that oat meal is al
most as nutritious as the very best Eng
fish beef; and that it is richer than
wheaton bread in the elements that go to
form bone and muscle. Professor Forbes
OF Edinburgh, during some twenty years,
measured the breadth and height, and
also tested the strength of both the arms
and loins of the students of the Univer-
sity--a very numerous class and of va
rious nationalities, drawn to Edinburgh
by the fame of his teaching. He found
that, in height, breadth of chest and
shoulders, and strength of arms and
loins, the Belgians were at the bottom of
the list, little above them the French,
very much higher the English, and high
est of all the Scotch and Scotch-Irish
| from Ulster, who, like the natives of
Scotland, are fed in their early years
with at least one meal a day of good
milk and good oatmeal porridge.
Speaking of oatmeal, an exchange re-
marks that very good drink is made
by putting about two tablespoonful of
the meal into tumbler of water. The
western hunters and trappers consider it
the best of drinks, as it is at once nour.
ishing, unstimulating, and satisfying.
1t is popular in the Brooklyn NAVY
Yard, two and ahalf pounds of oatmeal
being put into a pail of moderately cold
water. 1t is much better than any Of
the ordinary mixtures of vinegar and
molasses with water which farmers use
in the haying and harvesting season.

CATHERINE SEDGwICK.-The love
story of Catherine Sedgwick, who wrote
of such ideal passions in her novels,
forty and fifty years, has been for the
first time given to the world. Miss Sedg-
wick was the flower of peculiarly in
tellectual family, many of whose men,
bers won distinguished names in various
fields, and "Hope Leslie" with its sue.
cessors, have rendered her place in
American literature secure. Her name
10 Stockbridge, her native place, where
she died not many years ago, was long a
social and intellectual centre. and she
was surrounded by most reverent friend
ship and attention. A singularly even,
placid life hers seemed and yet she had
her romance. Her brother Theodore.
son of the eminent judge of the same
name, was lawyer in Albany when the
century was young, and his partner.
Hartmann Blocker, naturally became
acquainted with the brilliant young wri-
ter, and an engagement followed. Mr..
Blocker was of one of the old Dutch
families of the Knickerbocker city. a
man of wealth, culture and high charac-
ter, but OF colder and less impression
able nature than his bethrothed. In
his reading, therefore, the ardent affec.
tons she portrayed between the lovers
of one of her romances startled him.
He stopped to ask himself if this were
what he was expected to feel The re-
suit of his determination was letter.
telling her that, if the love she had so
wildly depicted should be exacted from
him, he felt that he could never respond
to the demand; he could never feel SO
exalted a sentiment. And the ENGAGE
ment between Hartmann Blocker and
Catherine Sedgwick was broken. Mr..
Blocker, in his subsequent residence in
Holland, as charge d'affaires, met a
young woman of the country who mar
ried him, then in his old age and made
him faithful wife; their old mansion.
spacious, and overlooking the Hudson ON
one of the steep hills of Albany, still
stands. Miss Sedgwick was unwedded
to her death.

Use of Silence,

A pity that so few people understand
the full effect of well.timed silence
How eloquent it is in reality Acqui'
escence, contradiction, difference, disdain,
embarrassment and awe may all be ex-
pressed by saying nothing. 1t may be
necessary to illustrate this apparent par
adox by few examples. Do you seek
an assurance of your lady-loves affec-
tion2 The fair one confirms her lovers
fondest hopes by compliant and asserting
silence. Should you hear an assertion
which you may deem false, made by
some one of whose veracity politeness
may withhold you from openly declar-
ing your doubt, you denote difference
of opinion by remaining silent. Are you
receiving reprimand from superior.
You mark your respect by an attentive
silence. Are you compelled to listen to
the frivolous conversation of a fop?
You signify your opinion of him by
treating his loquacity with contemptuous
silence. Again, how much domestic
strife might have been prevented, how
often might the quarrel which by mutual
aggravation has, perhaps, terminated in
blood-shed, had it been checked in the
commencement by judicious silence
Those persons only who have experience
ed them are aware of the beneficial eff
fects of that forbearance, which to the
exasperating threat, the malicious sneer,
or the unjustly imputated culpability,
shall never answer word. A soft an
swer turns away wrath; but sometimes
erring humanity cannot give this soft
answer in moments of irritation IN such
cases, there stands the fortress of silence,
with doors wide open, as refuge for the
tired spirit until calmer moments come.
Think of this seriously, you who glory
in having the last word"
