General Grants Greatness.

In description of the closing cere-
monies of the Centennial Exhibition,
the Philadelphia correspondent of the
London Times makes this reference to
the composure of General Grant:
No one who watched him would
have imagined that only all hour or so
before be had been called on to meet a
serious National emergency. He had
just sent his order to General Sherman
which has gone all over the world. |
was discussing it with distinguished
foreigner and diplomat, who has been
long in America, and ought to know
the President as well as most men and
he declared that it was, without doubt,
the production of Mr.. Secretrry Fish.
Next evening | happened to meet
General Hawley. who told me that he
was there when, just before the meet
ing in Judges Hall, the President got
the news which called forth the order,
and that after moments reflection,
and, without recourse TO any other
confidential adviser than that nearest,
dearest and discreetest of his counsel
ors and inseperable companion, his
cigar, the President then and there
wrote off the order as coolly and
promptly as he might have written all
order for his carriage.

Hayes the Next President.

In all human probability Mr.. Hayes
will be our next President, and if the
Democratic party is patriotic and mag
unanimous enough to accept this result,
when it finds that appeals to Congress
and public opinion cannot prevent it,
there is no reason for fearing that he
will not treat it with fairness and JUS
tice. We have no doubt that the south
would be as well governed under him
as under Mr.. Tiiden. We have no
doubt that he would take the advice
of the best class of southerners IN his
treatment of that section. We believe
that his policy would be in all respects
cOnciliatory if the Democratic party
gives him fair treatment after his in-
auguration. All his sympathies are
with the liberal element of the Repub-
lican party. With one branch of Con-
gress opposed to him in politics he
wonld be bound over to good behavior
even if fairness was not the leading
trait of his character. 1t would be
madness for the Democratic party to
resort to violence against such man.
and thereby run the risk of keeping
the Government in the hands of Grant.

Corn and Hogs.

From carefully conducted expert
mcnts by different persons, it has been
ascertained that one bushel of corn
will made little more than ten pounds
of pork, gross. Taking the result as a
basis, the following deductions are
made, which all our farmers would do
well to lay by for convenient refer
ence, that:
When corn sells at 1912 cents per
bushel, pork costs rs cents per
pound.
When corn costs II cents per bushel,
pork costs 2 cents per pound.
When corn costs 25 cents per bushol,
pork costs cents per pound.
When corn costs 80 cents per hushel,
pork costs 4 cents per pound.
When corn cost so cents per bushel,
pork costs 5 cents per pound.
The following statements show what
the farmer realizes on his corn when
sold in the terms of pork:
When pork sells at cents per pound,
it brings % cents per pound in corn.
When pork sells at 4 cents per pound,
it brings so cents per bushel in corn.
When pork sells at cents per pound,
it brings As cents per bushel in corn.

The United States Senatorship.


This month the Kansas newspapers
have been making United States Sem
ator, mex. month the Legislature will
be trying its hand on the same job,
with probably more definite, if not as
satisfactory success. The Augusta
Republican came out last week in a
very able and well written article in
favor of Southwestern Kansas favor
candidate, Colonel Preston b. Plumb.
The Republicans points, that he is the
peer of any man in intellectual endow-
ments aud legal acumen who now
or who have heretofore represented
the State in Congress, and that he
would in industry, popularity and in
flucncc prove second to none, are
we'll taken. Governor Osborn. Col.
Plumb aud Judge Sears will each, in
a measure, be sectional candidates, and
viii lead all others on the first ballots.
Governor Haryey's strength is more
at large, while other candidates will
more particularly be encouraged by
complimentary votes.

Hon. George A. Crawford, of Fort
Scott, spent Sunday in Kansas City.
and on Monday proceeded to Topeka
to render ali account of his steward
ship as United States Centennial Com
missioner from the State of Kansas.
Governor Crawford has been at his
post of duty since May last, and has
rendered very active and efficient serv-
ice in his official capacity. Visitors
from Missouri and Kansas have inva-
riably borne testimony to his intelli-
gent supervision and obliging services
and Kansas has been regarded as es-
pecially fortunate in the selection of
Governor Crawford for this exalted
trust. He should be commissioned to
represent Kansas at the Paris Exposi-
tion of 1873.

William p. Kellogg, commonly
known as 'Pitt" Kellogg, who has Of
late years attained such notoriety in
Louisiana, is. as might be suspected,
formerly of Kansas" and used to
own land in this county. Old resi-
dents remember that during the rush
attending the land sales in 81, the up
per story of the old Cataract House at
Grasshopper Falls, then unfinished,
was filled with beds or cots to accom-
modate the dodgers, and on rainy days
these cots were placed side by side in
a continuous line, as a foundation on
which the said dodgers could display
their activity. In these gymnastic con-
tests "Pitt" always came out ahead.
He could turn more successive hand
springs and do more "grand and lofty
tumbling" generally than "ary other
man in that neck O. woods" The
Democrats say he has lost none of his
agility.-Oskaioosa Independent.

The New York Nation has again
changed ground OH the presidential
question. This time the article will
not be quoted by Democratic papers.
The Nation says: ''ln fact, there is on
ly one course upon TO US in the matter,
and that is 10 let the States manage
their own election, and accept the re-
suit as they give it. We fiannot make
State governments better than the pop
ulation of the State want to have
them"
The article concludes with: at
seems to US that the only sound course
now is to stop clubbing and chopping
logic, TO accept the southern figures,
however bedeviled, and inaugurate
Hayes in the interest of peace and quiz
ct, and fer The better preservation of
constitutional form. ANY other course
would be Mexican"

Not only Gen. Joe Shelby, but Col.
A. Stay back, another dashing confed-
crate leader, repudiates the bulldozing
party. and declares that he will stand
by the executive branch of the govern
ment. in the event of disagreement
between the two houses Of Congress.
Col. Clay King, who commanded a
Confederate Missouri regiment, also
endorses Shelby's views, and falls into
the Union line.
