The Centennial VS.. the Constitution

From the New York World of Yesterday.
Two Democratic Senators, Mr.. Stockton. Of "
j., aud Mi. Bayard, OF Delaware, have made
speeches assalling the position or Senator Tuur-
maa that an appropriation of public money for
the Philadelphia exhibition IS not warranted bv
the Constitution Mr.. Thurman has signiicd his
intention to reply to their arguments whes the
subject comes again before the Senate This
couilct OF views shows that the subject Is not ee
from doubt or difficulty. Nr. Bayard has with
held his speech tor revision, aud until We shall
have an opportunity to read it and Mr. ThurmaI's )
rejolnder, we shall try to hold our Judgment III
suspense on the constitutional point
But we are clearly OF opinion that, even il the
constitutional power to appropriate money for
this purpose were conceded, the reasons against
The expediency OF such an appropriation are of
overwhelming weight. We behave il "A .hi,gv
on the ground OF expediency that the uuestinn
will be ultimately decided by Congress. But tho
constitutional question is worth careful evauina.

THE LADY-BUG and THE Ant

The lady bug sat in the roses heart
And smiled with pride and scorn
And she saw plain dressed ant go by
With a heavy grain of corn.
So she drew the curtain of damask round
And adj iusted her silken vest,
Making her GLASS of a drop OF dew
That lay in the roses breast.
Then she laughed so hard that the ant look cd up
- And seeing her naughty face.
Took no more notice, but trc veled on
At the same industrious pace
But sudden blast OF autumn came
And rudely swept the ground,
And now the rose with the lady bug bent
And scattered its leaves around.
Then the houseless lady was much amazed,
bor she knew not where to GO,
And hoarse November's early blast
Had brought with it rain and snow
Her wings were chilled. her feet were cold
And she wished for the ants warm cell
And what she did in the wintry storm
m sure cannot tell.
Eut the careful ant was in her nest
With the little ones BY her side
She taught them all like herself to toll
Nor mind the sneer Of pride.
And | thought as | sat at the close of dAy
hating my bread and milk,
That twas wiser to work and improve the time
Than TO be idle and dress IN silk.

This lusty young westerner, situated

most within the shadow of wigwams,
and this dash of bravado spirit reflects
that element which determines that
Comanche is but another name for
heroic pluck, double and twisted en-
ergy and vulcan sinew. Like glass
of Buck beer, 1t creates a mischief of a
sensation for its size, and there is 10

ripper and more sterling majority.
With its five hundred inhabitants,
the amount of business transacted aud
the extent and character of the inn

many places three times its extent in

A Nice Quartette to be Sure.

On Wednesday evening information
was received by Sheriff Barley that a
Mr.. Jackson, living on White Rock,
had been dispossessed of several head
of cattle by some cattle thieves. In u
jiffy, after the sheriffhad been notified
of this amusement, on the part of four
men from Grapevine prairie, he had
several tried and picked men mounted
and off after them. When nearing
Captain Gaston's residence, a halfmile
east ofthe city, they noticed to the right
of them some men corralling cattle,
and on riding up discovered, by the
description given them, that they were
right under the noses of the ROSTERS
they were after. What they went out
to do they did at once, viz: Took them
in charge, brought them to town and
lodged them in Jail. This moning
one of them had his trial before Judge
Kerfoot, and was released ON bail. The
trial of the other takes place to-day.

When learned physicians said the
patient must die, II cured: Sulphate
ofzinc, one grain; foxglove (digitalis),
one grain; Tablespoonful sugar; mix
with two tablespoonful of water.
When thoroughly mixed, add four
ounces of water. Takea spoonful every
hour. Either disease will disappear
in twelve hours. For children smaller
doses according to age. If counties
would compel physicians to use this,
there would be no use pcst-houses.

months past been stealing hogs from
his neighbors, several of whom consti-
tuted his captors. He was at length
found in an clubhouse OH his own prem
ises, and as one of his pursuers rode up
to the building, he sprang out on the
open ground armed with u six shooter
and a gun. Leveling his pistol and
firing as the man on horseback APP
preached, the remainder of the party
dashed up and in a moment afterwards
he fell to the ground pierced by nearly
hundred bullets. When picked up
he was as full of lead as q well-hlled
pin cushion with pins.
