LIVED IT DowN.-An honest black
smith was once grossly insulted and his
character UNANIMOUSLY DETAINED. Friends
advised him to seek redress by means
of law, but to one and all lie replied :
&C. No. l will go to my forge and there
in six months | will have worked out
such a character an earned such name
as all the judges, law courts and lawyt rs
in the world could never give me-" He
was right. 1t is by honest labor, manly
courage and conscience void of of1ens 9
that we assert our true dignity, and
prove our honesty and responsibility.

The GRAIN TRADE OF AMERIcA.-The
chief features of the grain trade of the
country are the increased concentration
of the exports from the four chief At
lantic ports. From 1866 to 1872 the
percentage of increase in the receipts of
grain at six of the leading Atlantic ports
stood as follows: Philadelphia, 232 /;
Baltimore, $50; Montreal, 20; New
York, So; Boston, so; Portland, A.
Taking only the ports named above,
they aggregated, in 1872, total receipts
amounting toS3, 010, SOB bushels, against
9O,217,375 at New York. Philadelphia
ranks next to New York, her receipts
having reached 24,117,150 bushels.
During the same period the receipts at
Boston were Is, 7O1 ,934 bushels. With
the opening of the Hoosac tunnel, the
grain trade of Boston will be largely in
creased.

Government Buildings.

One of the fruitful causes of expendi-
ture by the last Congress was the APP
preparation of over $12, 600, 900 for the
erection of public buildings for Gov
eminent use in various cities and towns.
In the face, however, of this fact, Il
much larger movement in that direction
has already been made in the present
Congress. 1t was ascertained at the
Capitol to-day that there were over 40
bills pending before the committee for
the erection of public edifces in the fol-
lowing cities and towns, and involving
an expenditure of nearly $50, 900, 900 :
Austin, Tyler, Dallas, Galveston, Hous-
ton and Jefferson, Texas Leavenworth
and Topeka, Kan. Kansas City,

gomery, Ala, Rochester, n. Y, Oxford,

promised retrenchment is carried out,
not one of these buildings will be au-
thorized, though most of the bills for
them have been presented since the
resolution of economy passed the House.

Why Chubb MOurned.

When Chubb's wife died we called in
to mourn with him, and, if possible, to
console him in his atflictiop. The old
man sat in the rocking chair with his
eyes closed, chewing toothpick, and
rocking to and fro as he apparently
unused over the years he had spent SO
happily in company with his late part
ner. We gently approached the subject
of Mrs. Chubb's departure. We as
sured him that we sympathizcd with him
in his deep affection, and the more sim
cerely because we well knew the estima-
BILE qualities of his wife, and were famil-
lar with the virtues with which she
adorned her home.
"She was, indeed, we said, "an ex-
cellent woman, remarkable woman; a
woman of sterling qualities and unaf-
fected piety."
Chubb stopped rocking, and looked
at us mournfully. Then exclaimed
Unaffected piety That's just what's
the matter tell you, Adeler," said he,
bringing his hand down emphatically on
the arm of the chair, the way that
woman would roast sugar cured ham
would bring the tears to the eyes of Il
craven image"
Then we went out and left him alone
with his sorrow. There are some kinds
of grief that are too sacred to be lightly
intruded upon. Adeier.

VINEGAR BITTERs.-DR. j. WALKER, a

mankind, by the introduction of a
" Bitters' compounded from Ii, RIBS ex,

superseding all others, and is becoming
IL bitter dose indeed for the charlatans
and quacks, on account of its immense
sale and universal popularity. Not only
are these VINEGAR BITrERs, as he calls
them, an invaluable tonic and Alternative,
but they are acknowledged as standard
MEDICINE, and the astonishing rapidity
with which they cure diseases hitherto
declared incurable seems almost in
credible. After having been carefully
tested, they are kept on hand in thou
sands of households, and used for any
and every form of disease, many relying
upon them in preference to the most
celebrated physicians. They have be-
come a recognized Family Remedy"

A Kentucky Farmer Killed by Pam
For some time past ferocious pan
thcr has been providing through the
woods over the Cat hills, near Taylors-
vile, Spencer county. On Monday
last, Richard Holt came across the pan
tller while out hunting, and fired two
charges into it's side without fatal eff
feet. This tended to cnrage the ami
NAL, and in less than two minutes it
had landed upon Holt and was savagely
clawing him to death. A little boy who
was with Holt ran to where party of
men were working in field about half
mile away, and, as soon as these men
could arm themselves, they fastened to
Hollis aid but when they reached the
spot they found his head and his body
torn almost into shreds. The beast,
after killing him, had evidently eaten Il
portion of the body, as large Jumps Of
flesh which had evidently been torn out
of the body could not be found any
where about the spot. Mr.. Holt was IA
farmer, very fond of hunting, was brave
to fault, and was very venturesome.
The inhabitants of the neighborhood
have organized for the purpose Of hunt
ing down and staying the monster of the
woods. 1t is said that the hideous yells
of the beast can be heard every night,
but that the people are afraid to pursue
it in the dark. -Louisriie Lcdger.
