STAY AT HOME IN VIRGINIA.-A gen.
tleman who went from Rockingham to In
diana a year ago, writes back to the Har-
risonburg Commonwealth that he sees
from it that some Of his Rockingham
friends are coming out there, and adds:
''Tell them to take the advice of one who
is here, and stay where they are, for there
is no money here and nothing uoiHg.
Farmers are paying from ten to twenty
per cent. for money to pay their taxes
The Clarke County (Va.) Courier says
that ga month Oh six weeks ago several
young men left this place for Texas, hop
ing to find better tines there than in cid
Virginia. Week before last one of them
returned, and last week the other gladly
and safely landed in Berryville: and both
are no doubt convinced that Virginia is as
good a place to live in as other States, if
proper use is made of muscle and brains.
The fact is, times are hard everywhere,
and the money spent in seeking employ
ment elsewhere can be saved, if you will
devote as many hours of hard labor at home
as you are compelled to render in the
Southwest, il. order to make living"

LAWYERS AND GRANGERS.-At the last
meeting of the State Grange of Virginia,
the Worthy Master decided that "Practis-
ing lawyers are not eligible to membership
in the Order of Patrons of Hus5andry, &C
cording to Article Y of the Constitution,
because one of the specific and grand aims
and purposes Of the Order, as set forth in
the address issued by the National Grange,
is: I'VE shall avoid litigation as much as
possible by arbitration But the practice
of law must of necessity tend to encourage
litigation; therefore practcing lawyers
have an interest in conflict with our pur-
poses,' and hence are not eligible" Since
that decision in Virginia, the Master of
the National Grange has decided chat a
man being d lawyer does not render him
ineligible, if agriculture is his leading
pursuit" and an order has now been issued
from the Virginia State Grange which
renders lawyer eligible if he is engaged
in agriculture to a greater extent than in
any other business"

Easter Morn.
BY NJ. P. d.

Earth, like a mother, holds in sacred rest
The Holy one within her tender breast;
Along the SKY the stars keep solemn guard
over the tomb where lies the Sleeping Lord.
All Nature, spent with agonizing throe,
In night and silence bows her head in woe.
Harl! thro' the distance sounds celestial come;
a light breaks DER the soldier-guarded tomb;
Angels throng earthward, with bright wings I'm
furled,
And EASTER MORNING dawns upon the world.
Silence and darkness flee in haste away,
And night gives place to Christ's triumphal day.
Guarded by angels. see the Holy One
Come from the tomb! Redemption'S work is done
DEATH hell and sin He treads beneath his feet!
Lie heaven, and love, their Lord victorious, greet
Glory and splendor DER His garments shine!
upon His DroW sits majesty divine!
EASTER ANTHEM.

The heavenly c0rtege sings.
Hail to The Lord OF Lordsl
Hail to the King of kingS!"
earth from your slumbers Use!
Gods morn flames thlO' the skies!
Shake Off Your hight of gloom;
Christ trumphs DER the tomb!'
''MortaIs, behold and laud
Your newly risen Cod
From wars and tumults cease:
He comes! The Prince of Peace!
For you, upon His face
SHINES pardonlng love and grace;
For you, His sacred feet
Bring victory compete!'
''Iiail tG The Heaven AdOred!
Hail to The Risen Lord.
With jubllant song and psalm,
Praise Christ, The Easter l.amb!'

Fitting to meet her risen God;
Her garments as the sun for brightness,
Like newly fallen snow for WhiteneSs,
Aud passion flowers and daisies fair,
Floating their incense everywhere.
Thus shall we Chris.'s Bride adorn

that don't want politics in a city govern

and in the last two years has appropriated
nearly $780, 900 in addition.

HONEST people should well consid-
er their duty in the present campaign.
If reform IS to be carried into the ad-
ministration of the government, ii
must be by the people acting and
voting honestly themselves. Look at
the Democratic party upon the ques-
ton of finance. In the East it en-
dorses the repeal of the date of the
resumption act because it hinders re-
sumption; whereas, in the West, right
here in Gallipolis, the same party
supports the repeal that the country
might not be troubled with resump'
ton at all. In the one place speedy
resumption, and in the other no re-
sumption at all. Can any honest
man support such double-faced &C
ton? Can reform be expected from
a party which goes before the people
with resumption in New York, and
non-resumption in Ohio? With specie
payment in the east, and greenbacE
imitation in the west? Think Of it
and then act as becomes the part o
honest men and true reformers.

From the New York. World, 30th.l
The headquarters of the Democratic
National Executive Committee of the
Everett House yesterday were visited
by Colonel Vance. present Representa-
tive of Congress from the Eleventh
Ohio District, and renominated for elec-
ton. He reported that it was at pres
ent an even thing in Ohio between Til
den and Hayes, and that if the election
were to take place by the first of Sep
tember he Colonel vance, would cer-
tainly be reelected.
AS the election don't occur until
the second Tuesday in October, it is
to be inferred that VANCE gives up.
By the way, did VANCE go to New
York to receive his share of the
$25O,OO corruption fund Wall street
has promised to send to Ohio to de-
feat Hayes and elect Tiljen?
