A New Presidential Ticket

The New York Sun states
that the Central Grant Club of
that city has just published a
letter in favor of the nomina-
ton of "Ulysses S. Grant, of
New Jersey, for President, and
Fitz Hugh Lee, of Virginia, for
Vice-President," and that copies
of the letter have been sent to
influential politicians North and
South, East and West. The
letter starts off with the assump-
ton that peace is not yet re-
stored to the country. 1t con-
tinues: 'FThis centennial year
is a year of a Presidential cleo
ton. 1t is a fitting season for
patriotic men Of all parties to
unite for the peace and prosper
ity Of our common country.
If a candidate for President
and a candidate for Vice-Presi-
dent Of the United States could
be selected under the auspices
of Peoples Convention, rep
resenting both our national po-
litical parties, we might afford
practical means to secure that
restored Union Of the States
which all good citizens seem to
desire. Col. A. j. II. Duganne,
the President Of the club, was
interviewed by reporter for
the San, to whom he said:
"Grant and Fitz Hugh Lee
are our nominees for President
and Vice-President. We think
that they can beat any ticket
that can be put up. Their cleo
ton would tranquilize the North
and the South, and would bury
the hatchet of discord so deep
that Blaine could never get hold
Of the handle. Lee is a repre-
sentative man in the South.
He is nephew of Robert E.
Lee, and a descendant of Light
Horse Harry of the Revolution.
He is also related to Washing
ton."
"Has Lee accepted your NOM
ination?"
1--WE have sent him one of
our letters, but he has not an
swered it yet. Gen. Longstreet,
Joe Johnston, Beauregard,
Meminger, Gordon, Hill, Brown
low, and other prominent men
in the South have been invited
to give their opinion in regard
to our ticket. We have not
sent to JEFF. Davis, or Toombs,
Of Georgia" :"
"What is the present condi-
ton Of the third-term move
ment throughout the country?"
'It is encouraging. In Maine
the movement is quite strong. |
. newspaper has been started |
in Augusta called the Third |
Termer. In Ohio there are
several papers for Grant, and [
hear that clubs are being Or
ganized there, as we'll as in 9th
er Western States. Our club is |
in correspondence with leading |
men in the country, but their
to us cannot be made
public yet"

A curious old bell is to be
hung in the belfry of the main
building Of the Connecticut
screw company at Tariffville.-
1t bears an inscription, the part
of which that can be deciphered
shows it to have been cast at
Rouen, France, in 1877. From
that place it was brought to
Newgate, the old Simsbury cop
per mine prison, where it did
service till the prison was dis
continued. The bell has con-
siderable amount Of silver in it:
and has also a fine tone.

ACROSTIC.

BY JESSIE FERGUSON BROWNE.
Just and merciful and true,
0, may every virtue rare,
So replete be found in you,
Ever is my earnest prayer;
Peace of mind with sweet content -
Heavenly blessings kindly sent.
Meekly trusting - firm in faith
Other godly traits be thine;
Reaping richly after death,
Gaining by a course divine -
Attributes that yield thee joy
Nothing 10th at last to die.
Bearing patiently each cross,
Rising O'er the ills of life,
On its stormy waves ye toss,
Warning with its care and strife
Never languish in despair,
Even when there's least to cheer.
