For moro than half century the
Saturday Evening Post has been the
GREAT LITERARY WEEKLY
Of the Country, ana has ever borne a
widespread and nnblrmishcd reputation
for the unsurpassed purity, refinement
and excellence If the Serials. Sketches
and Miscellaneous reading matter.
1t is pre-eminently
The Best Family Paper
that is published in this country, from its
never containing anything that would
offend the feelings Of any one, either in
a religious or political sense, or that
could not be read at any freside without
objection from the most fastidious.
The circulation of the Saturday Even
ing Post, through not quite SO large
perhaps, as it's younger contemporaries,
'is not, like that Of some Of them, tluctu-
ating, and too often short-lived, but
SURE. SOLID AND SUBSTANTIAL,
based upon the intrinsic merit of the pa
per itself and not dependent on any ex-
traneous influences, such as the pOpulari-
ty Of individual writer's, SC.
Good, however, as the Saturday Even.
ing Post has been in the past, it is OUR
intention to make it still better in the
future, and with this object in view we
will effect marked improvement in eve
ry department. Of the paper, and will
call to orr assistance writer's Of admitted
ability and KNOWN reputation.
BY increasing its former attractions,
and adding many iudicious and pleas
ing novelties, by studying how to please
and cultivate the popular taste, by in:
creasing industry and enterprise, and by
enlarged facilities, wo hope to make new
friends with each and every issue, and
continue to maintain the claim Of the
Saturday Evening Post to its title Of The
OLDEST AND THE BEST Of Family Story
Papers.

ONE of the effects of the civil rights
bill, even before its passage, is already
illustrated by the lite bull pen delega-
ton from Kaw river to Galveston.
When told that oysters were in the
milky state and deleterious to human
happiness in every month in the year,
in which no II occurred, the bull PEN
ners said they didn't care a drot. They
had come for "iseters,n and "iseters"
they were going to have. So the old
stagers, with u knowing wink, fed
them on about two bushels of the
milky pisen, in the spawning season.
They were admonished by old and
virtuous men and wemen, butsaid they
didn't care n drot, the civil rights bill
guaranteed the right to every man to
do as he pleased Excepting the white
people of the south, and they be-dog-
ond II they didn't come for iseters and
iseters they were bound TO hev. Their
return homeward can DO traced along
the whole line by their earthquakian
deposits in casting up their counts
through the ear windows. Sea sick
ness was laid in the shade by the
Kansas Citians on their way home.
The buzzards foated around, and
skinned close to the earth, but we
have never heard ofone that alighted on

The Berlin correspondent ofthe Lon

nounces the last direct blow aimed by
Bismarck at the power Of the papacy
in Germany He says that II being eX-
pected that, under the new German
law for the Punishment OF recusant
ecclesiastcs, the majority of the Catho-
lie bishops will be shortly compelled
to leave the country, and that the do
cesar chapters will refuse TO elect new
bishops during the life time of the for
mer incumbent. A law has just been
enacted empowering the parochial
population to meet and elect their own
pastors, without reference to the APP

THE Austin special of the News con-
tradicts rumor that Mr.. Moody, the
financial agent appointed by the gov
ernor last winter to negotiate state
loan of one million dollars, had failed
IN his mission and returned. Accord
ing to statements at headquarters, it is
confidently expected that he will sell
the bonds, and sooi. place the state
treasurer in plenty of funds. The pub
lie will receive these assurances with
no ordinary pleasure. May the event
prove them to have been not prema-
turely given or insuiliciently founded.
1t would be deplorabe and extremely
notifying to witness the ultimate mis-.
carriage of programme that was
adopted with such emphasis rs well as
deliberation, and which in the outset
promised so much in the way of I'M
proving the credit of the state, and of
placing the operations of the state
treasury ON a firm cash basis.-[Gal-

mako few remarks in relation thereto

ton In relation 10 thleylng with some
degree Of alarm, not however because
| do not believe that there IL u neces-
slly for action Of some sort, In order 10
put stop 10 the evil spoken Of but be-
cause do not believe that the mode of
action required by said resolutions
comes within the legitimate province
of the order of patrons of hushandry'
The order ! consider, was instituted
for M entirely different purpose ANA
should not, under any circumstances,
he directed into channel calculated To
assume the execution of the duties OF
the officers of the law. That many
criminals escape justice IL II grave l,cl,
and that the officers charged with the
execution Of the law are, In many
cases, crminally negligent In the DIS
charge of their duties, N also too lrue'
Can we not devise means calculated 10
correct these evils and Insure better
enforcement of the law by assisting
the officers all We can by giving vol
untary aid aud information, aud then
holding them, ~ public officers, strict
ly accountable for any dlreliction OF
duty +? II there Is anything lacking In
the law, then, let us endeavor, by uni
ted action, TO obtain the necessary re-
form.
There are many reasons, In my judy
ment, why the resolutions referred to
should not be adopted by the different
oranges. 1t is hardly likely that the
brethren could be II unit ON this point,
aud am afraid il would not be har-
mohlous to compel those who felt In
cllned TO object, TO shoulder his gun in
pursuit Of horse. thieves, aud anything
tending TO create dis3ord should be
carefully guarded against; and then, If
adopted, will IL not be in conflict with
section five, article eight Of the consti-
tuition. The declaration of purposes
contains nothing contemplating any
such action.
Again: 1t will take considerable
amount of money to perform the nee
essary work, which would be tax
upon our membership levied for the
performance Of work heretofore paid
for by ny in the shapeo of county tax
levied for the very same purpose. |

Brief Notes.

The crowded state of our columns
precludes anything but brief reference
to several matters which under other
circumstances would receive attention.
Congress adjourned on Tuesday eve
ming. At the last moment, President
Grant sent in the nomination of Boss
Shepherd as one of commission to
govern the District of Columbia, and
the Senate rejected it.
The democrats of Maine nominated
Joseph Titcomb of Kennebunk for gov
ernor, on Tuesday.
A shocking catastrophe occurred at
Syracuse Tuesday evening. by which a
score of people at strawberry festival,
lost their lives.
Congress finally passed the postage
bill fixing the prepaid rate on news
papers at two cents per pound, half a
cent higher than was suggested by the
Postmaster-Ge General. We wish to see
the yeas and nays on that bill.

County Politics.

1t will he noticed that the Republican
County Convention is called at this
place next Friday, July Sd. Under the
vote of two years ago it is supposed
that hereafter there will be new deal
all round every election. That is. as
soon as Il man has been elected to office
once and becomes of any service to his
town, county or state, he is dropped,
and Il new man taken. This is fine
theory but mighty poor practice.
There have been several names men
toned in connection with the offices to
be filled next week. prominent among
whom are those of 5. S. Thompson and
Franklin Fairbanks for senators. n. NJ
