A REUNION.

In the telegraph dispatches this morn

q movement now on foot to have goodly
number of the blue aud gray coats as
ssmbled at the Centennial grounds in
Philadelp hia next Summer. Philadel-
phia was ever the most loyal OF all the
Northern cities, and was for while the
bulwark of the Union; yot, though she
contributed with men aud money to per-
petuate the cause she has at heart. she
has not forgotten the motto of her
founder. the plain. drab-coated William
Penn. and now proposes to exemplify
brotherly love by assembling around
peaceful camp-fres old foes, but now,
happily, loyal citizens OF united coun-
try. This contemplated feature is the
most pleasing of any We have noted in
connection with the great Exhibition,
and for this reason. Since the Centen-
NAL first assumed tangible shape at
tempts have been made ut various times
to endow or Undue it with political sig

minority have constantly uttered low
growls Of discomfort, and. with the

narrow minded fanatics have fro wned a

tween the two sections OF the country
Those voices will be silenced by the fra
ternal hum of the Centennial army

THANKSGIVING DAY.

To-day is set apart by national procla-
nation endorsed by State authority as
day of thanksgiving and prayer. The
intent Of the thus setting apart day in
the dying year wherein we return thanks
to the Creator and implore bis mercy is o
most commendable one. The custom
originated in New England, in times OF
sore trial and hardship and has extended
into such national proportions that to-day
every city. town and hamlet in the broad
expanse Of the American continent par.
tally ceases from the daily round OF
labor in expressing thanks to God for bis
manifold gifts and blessings throughout
the year that is drawing to close. We
all recognize the existence of Supreme
Being, Of Spirit eternal, independent.

things, who governs the universe, con.

find cause for thanks during the last

though fortune fails. though disasters

much to be thankful for. Locally speal

to the solitary African OF Indian Bar,
was killed by woman known as " Slim
JOSIE" under the following circum-
stances: Josie came to the county last
Spring, and owns small ranch. occu-
pied by her, a COW and calf. pair OF
pigs and large dog. The dog and calf
are now no more, and their ticking of
led to the killing OF the lion. Two weeks
ago Josies dog Bully won't out on hunt
and returned no more. Josie, who is a
strong minded woman, and fears not the
demon himself, went out and secured
the woods for three days. On the even
ing OF the third day she found poor
Bully, cold and stiff, clasped in the en-
brace of death. He had been fearfully
mapgled in the encounter, in which he
had come off second best. Josie returned
home and all went we'll until Saturday
| night, when she. was aroused by the
bleating of her calf. She arose, took her
trusty rifle and sailed out to tho pen.
| On her arrival at the pen she paused,
and in the bright moonlight she plainly
perceived q large lion tearing and eating
her calf. The rifle was promptly leveled
and the lion sprang into the air and
dropped dead with bullet in his brain
As soon as the African heard OF the death
OF his enemy, he went and popped the
question to Josie, who answered by
