A SOLDIERS CoNFIDENCE.-One day
when Napoleon was reviewing hi $
troops in Paris, he let iall the reins OF
mis- horse from his hands upon the
animals neck, when the proud charger
galloped away. Before the rider could
recover the bride common soldier ran
out from the ranks, caught the reins,
stopped the horse, and placed the bride
again in the hands OF the emperor,
"Much obliged to you, captain" said
Napoleon. The man Immediately be-
lieYed the chief, and said, "Of what reg-
ment, sir" Napoleon, delighted with
his quick perception and ready trust In
his word, replied, "Of my guardsW and
rode away. As soon as the emperor left
he laid down his gun, saying, "He may
take it who will" and instead of return
ing to the ranks whence he SO suddenly
ISSUED, he started ior the company oi
staff officers. They were amazed at his
apparent rudeness and disobedienee OF
orders, and one of the generals contempt
uousIy said, "What does this fellow
want herew "Tnis fellow" replied the
soldier proudly, sis captain OF the
guard" "Youl my poor friend; you are
mad TO say so," was the answer Of the
superior officer. 'He said it," replied
me soldier, pointing to the emperor, still
in sight. 81 ask your pardon. sir" said
the general respectfully; 81 was not
aware OF it," And so tue soldier came
| duly to his post as captain Of Napoleon's
guard.

The ''Hoppers" outwitted.
From the Avoca Towa) News !

FROM Gle ANOGi kIoMdJ NeW5'
Well, the grasshOppers have almost
disappeared, and the crops as whole
have suffered but little. They have de-
posted their eggs mere, but no farmer
need be afraid of these if he is willing
to work. There is not man in this
county who can not clean out every
hopper of his place in the spring, before
they do a do ,r's worth OF damage, il
they will only so to work and do il, in
stead OF sitting down and whining
about it. Two farmers north OF
Avoca, Mr.. 'Priester and Mr.. Fritzh
Hull, saved eighty acres of barley this
year by killing about twenty five bush
els of grasshoppers. They each of
them got a pan sixteen feet long by
about three feet wide, put wheels on it
and about one inch OF coal tar in 1t, then
hitched their horses behind it and
pushed it across the field the same as a
header. The hoppers, not yet having
wings, jumped straight up for the pan 10
pass under them, and dropped back into
1t, stuck, and were killed by the tar.
The total cost of saving tue grain was
about $9 ca b, and it would have been
less than that had their neighbOrs done
as they did. You can save your crops
and annihilate this pest in the same way
if you will all 60 to work with a will and
determination to do it. Call a meeting
in your respective townships and talk
The matter over, and all unite in one

elected; and out of 250 members of the

NOR is current that the family of Gran
is in financial difficulties. The sacri
fee of the ST. Louis stock, the advcr
tsing of Mrs. Grants New Jersey
land for taxes, the Adams Express Com
pany loan and the late hasty visit L

resulting from the financial stringcncy
in the Presidential household. II ap
pears that President Grant is indebted
to the Adams Express Company t.
the amount of $4,000. Like the &C
ccptancc of large gifts of money from
persons afterward appointed to lucra
tive offices, this is a discrcdtable trans
action. 1t may not be correct, but il

HITTING EORNEY HARD.
A POINT OF RAscALIry WHICH BECOMES
FUNNY.


The Now York Nation contains tho
following severe attack upon Col. For
ney, which ought to bring him home
very speedily;
The Anglo.American Tines, very
good paper, published in London, has
In the Inmbcr received by tho last mail,
an article, almost ecclesiastical In Its
tone, entitled "Col. John W. Forney
and the United States Centennial Ex-
hibition,' in which the writer gives
way to the most extraordinary reioic-
ings over the appearance of the Colonel
in England as American '1nternational
Commissioner TO Europe" We wish
We had space to quote some of his
dithyrambs over this auspicious event.
They would greatly amuse some of
our readers. We are sorry, however,
to have TO make known the fact to the
Angio-Americdn Times, and oour English
readers that the dispatching of the
Colonel in an official character is look
ed upon by the best portion of this
country as an objectionable indlscre-
ton on the part Of the Centennial
Commissioners, and as a striking Illus
tration Of tho disregard even of ap-
I
pearances, which familiarity with cor.
ruption has bred even In men who
are themselves honest Twenty-Five
thousand dollars Of the Pacific Mail
corruption fund were traced to the
colonel's capuoious pockets In the
Congressional investigation last winter,
but he has never given himself the
trouble TO notice the charge, and his
failure TO meet II ought, Of course TO
have disqualified him for any place Of
dignity or emolument, and, above all,
for that of an international commits
sioner. Nor is this the first case of
the kind in which the Colonel has
been implicated and exposed in fact,
we believe il is the third. He certainly
got $4,000 Of the money Of the Georgia
ring, headed by Bullock, when they
were trying to get Congress to set
aside the State Constitution, in order
to enable them to continue their game
of fraud, before Bulloeks fight from
justice. 1t is, indeed, almost matter
of public notoriety that the Colonel
has had hand in most of the great
Washington jobs, and his European
mission is there fore national disgrace,
for which the Centennial Commission.
ers owe an apology, not only to the
public, but even to the Indian ring.
When the Colonel lifted up his tuneful
voice in London, few weeks ago, in
"vindicationn of General Schenck,
many honest Americans laughed
through their tears, because there is a
point at which rascality becomes funny.

man he will pray for him and get all
the preachers to pray for him, too.
But he won't take any stock in

anybody. The bishop has the rare
