Bravery Appreciated.

The Baltimore Sun says that one
pleasant incident Of the late confeder-
ate army meeting in Richmond, Va,
was the loud applause with which the
s'boys who wore the gray'' greeted a
graceful eulogy in the speech Of the ora
tor of the occasion upon the gallantry
of federal lieutenant and sergeant at
the battle of the crater, near Petersburg.
After the mine was fired and the Union
troops were awaiting the explosion to
advance upon the confederate lines, an
unexpected hindrance delayed the ex-
plosion, but what it was no one could
conjecture. If the fuse was still alight,
burning but slowly, to enter the mine
was certain death. Time dragged slow
lly on, when, said the speaker, ''two
brave men, whose names should be men,
toned with respect wherever courage
is honored, Lieut.. Jacob Douty and
Sergt. Henry Rees, both Of the Forty
eighth Pennsylvania volunteered for the
perilous service, and entered the mine.
Crawling on their hands and knees,
cropping in utter darkness, they found
that the fuse had gone out about one
hundred feet from the mouth of the
main gallery. They relighted it, and
retired" The mention of this incident
drew applause from the battle-scarred
veterans of Virginia, who had been in
the same fight with these gallant Penn
sylvanians, showing how brave men re-
spect each other.

The New York Journal of Commerce
(Democratic), after explaining the pow
ers of the Republican Boards in the dis
puted States, under the laws of those
States, says:
The contest is not, therefore, about
any possible device for miscounting, or
underhand trickery for cheating in the
count, of the popular vote. 1t is ques-
tion as to what these several canvassing
boards may feel called upon to do, and
be legally justified in doing, in the way
of correcting or rejecting the votes
which are placed in their hands for
compilation. If they assume in all the
three States to make such changes as
will reverse the majority sent to them,
Democratic partisans may rave and
threaten, and thoughtful people of all
parties may disapprove or heartily con-
denim, but we see no legal method OF
setting aside the inevitable result.

Florida Frauds.

A prominent Republican now in
Florida, writes to the national commit
tee, the 18th inst: The routine of get
ting evidence of frauds is well under
way. Each train takes out men to
counties to investigate and prepare evi-
dence. The returns now in show that
Hayes is ahead over all frauds, which
have been very great, and there is dan
ger remaining. Two or three counties
may overcome these majorities so far as
the State ticket is concerned. The
Democrats yesterday attempted to make
terms with the canvassing board, but
failed ignominiously.

The Doubtful States.

The New York Times of the 22d inst.
says it is plain that the Governor and
canvassing board of Florida are mas
ters of the situation in law and in fact.
The Columbia S. c. correspondent of
the same paper gives the law in the
case of the coup d'etat, which shows the
board of canvassers were right. They
are required by law to close their ses-
sions within ten days after commencing
and the time expired Wedneday at noon.
There was consequently no other course
left open. The action was taken before
the mandamus of the court was granted; j;
at any rate it was done before writ
was served upon the board and the board
has now ceased to exist.
The N. Y. World of the same date
says: Our reporter interviewed Wade
Hampton tonight. He takes the matter
quite coolly, and says he has no fears of
the result. He maintains the board of
canvassers clearly in contempt, and has
faith in power of the Supreme Court to
compel a fair count. Later.-The court
has issued an order reconvening the
board of canvassers tomorrow. A MEM
ber of the board assures me that he will
not obey it, and characterizes the court
as a pack of ID scoundrels. The
plain inference is that the radical crew
here are acting under orders from Wash
ington.

I rejoice that it was there to do you
service in time when you must have
needed it 80 much"
! The Jew took the proffered chair,
saying:
"Believe me, prince, your treasure is
all safe. Just as told it over with you.
The closet was searched again and
again, and every seam examined without
success The fine old china, and indeed
all our possessions, were sacrificed to
the plundering rapacity of the enemy i;
but, thanks TO Providence, we were
enabled to keep sacred the trust you
put in us. Your property only awaits
your order, to be restored to you as
you gave it."
The prince was astonished.
Il had scarcely believed in such
honor and integrity, my friend" said
he. "You have taught me that mans
integrity may be incorruptible; and
henceforth I shall have increased faith
in the dignity and purity Of human
nature"
A few days after, this, the prince
called at the house in the Juden Strasse,
and received his girdle with not stone
missing. In that very house the children
of Ben Heber were educated in the
principles of honor and justice. Every
where the integrity of their father was
sounded abroad by the prince, who
deemed that his thanks and presents
alone were not sufficient. The world
heard the tale, but the humble Jew
received net only the trust, but the
companionship of princes and mobiles.
In all parts Of the commercial world
men heard the name with veneration,
and at this day his family are scattered
about in the grandest cities Of Europe,
the monarchs Of finance, the arbiters of
the money market, the successful,
because honorable, controllers of the
wealth of nations.
Though frequently urged to make
her home in one of the princely palaces
in which they dwelt, Sara Rothschild
passed her peaceful cid age in the quaint
old house of the Juden Strasse. When
her sons, who were mobiles by their
country's gift Of uobility-given, too,
to merit alone-visited her, she receiv-
ed them in the same room in which
they had received their lessons of truth
and honor, and while they bowed theiI
heads to receive her blessing, the stately
woman rose up with a grace and
dignity that would seem to belong
only to a queen, aud laying her hands
upon their heads, blessed them as in
days of old.
Such is true sketch of the house of
Rothschild.

eHEEREULNEss.

What we call Glow spirits" is very
frequently the result of bodily weakness
or disease People, with few excep-
tons, love to be cheerful, and not have
to hear sermons and lectures upon the
subject to appreciate cheerfulness. But
these frail bodies are easily put out of
tune, and dependency is very apt to
accompany the small ills which seem
but slight, and for which We find but
little sympathy. When Elijah sat
down under the juniper tree in great
dependency, so great that he longed
to die, the angel of the Lord did not
say; "Man, you give up too easily !;
dependency is dreadful thing, never
give way TO it. No, the Lord is too
wise physician for that. He knew
that the prophet was Suffering from
bodily weakness and WEAKNESS. The
good man was allowed to rest, first vf
all; mark that. Sleep and rest are
often all that is needed to cure low
spirits. Then miraculous meal was
prepared, and the angel touched the
sleeper and said: "Arise, and eat, for
the journey is too great for thee" How
sympathizing and tender were these
words ! Elijah did according to this bid
ding, and we have no more complaints
of that kind from him.
Just here is the secret in numbers Of
cases where dependency holds sway:
''The journey is too great for thee. y
The tolls and cares press so heavily
that the mortal frame is out of order,
and dependency is the result. Avoid
over fatigue, taking too much thought
for the morrow, grumbling and brood
ing and anything that Is hurtfal to
physical nature. And remember, that
the greatest cheerfulness is induced by
firm trust in the Lord. When the
journey necessary is too great for thee
the angel will come and give thee meat
that shall strengthen thee.

A PAIR OF ADVENTUROUS LADS.

Walter Farber, aged fifteen, and his
cousin, Frank Farber, aged seventeen
ran away from their home in St. Louis
recently, the Black Hills being their
destination. They proposed to kill
Indians and make their fortunes. They
had read dime novels and Black Hills
advertisements, and learned just what
they had to do to make themselves ia.
nous and rich, SO they got together
S94.8O cash Of their respective parents
and bought tickets to Denver. Their
equipment, as was subsequently learned
consisted of two tiny seyen-shooting
revolyers and two boxes of cartridges
for Indian killing purposes, several
little sacks for storing the nuggets of
gold that they were going to find,
pocket diary each, and the jacket, shirt,
pants and shoes in which they were
dressed. They reached Kansas City all
right, and while awaiting the departure
of the train for Denver were approach
ed by Sunday'school looking young
man whose sympathy was evidently
excited in their behalf. He told them
that he could get their Black Hills
tickets exchanged for tickets which
would carry them clear to California
and then they could come round to
the Black Hills by the back way and
get good view of the country. He
required, however, a bonus of ten
dollars on the exchange. They thought
this an excellent suggestion on the part
of the kindly young man and gave him
their tickets, together with ten dollars
in cash, receiving from him a NICE
looking check on the Hibernian Bank
of St. Louis for 500, which was to
secure them until the young man
brought back the California tickets
They held on the check until it looked
rather scaly in the light of the young
mans continued absence, and they soon
after found lets of persons who could
tell them that they were victims A
little inquiry developed the fact that
the young man had sold the tickets to
ticket-scalper, and the boys bought
them back at an advance of SIS. They
felt very dismal indeed at this exper-
fence. They had been out from home
more than day and not an Indian nor
a gold mine had they sighted. just as
the runaway lads were in the glo omiest
part of calculation as to how they
could make their few remaining dollars
hold out till they could get shot at
an Indian or pounce upon gold mine,
an officer, bearing telegram from the
Chief of Police of St. Louis, nabbed
them, and they abandoned their pro-
posed expedition to the frontier and
were escorted back home. -Denuer

Selling the Old Farm.

There is a constant buying and SELL
ing of farms going on from year to
year in our country. This restlessness
on the part Of the farmer and this
desire to change present location for
another one, hundreds of miles off, is
SO frequently witnessed in our day that
we cesae to wonder at it. In the time
of our forefathers, when a man was
settled on farm he commonly con-
tinued through life, and then left it for
his son. In time gone by the same
farm was first occupied by the grand
father and so on by the son and
grandson. Then the good old home
stead was reverenced and the occupancy
of it was esteemed great privilege.
There was satisfaction felt by the
successor that his predecessor was his
relative, cultivated the same fields,
wandered by the same brooks, traversed
the same hills, and ate the fruit of the
same orchard. Then there was home
feeling, home associations, and home
attachments. Now the farmer looks
more to h is pccuniary gains, and when
offered large price for his land.
hesitates not to sell. He quits his
beautiful home. bis well-cultivated acres,
emigrates to the Far West, and COM
mences life of hardship that he never
dreamed Of 1t can be safely said that
where one man succeeds in this under-
taking many fail. If he could only sell
his new farm. how gladly would he
HE back to the old home, now occupied
by strangers, and the enclosure con-
tanning the graves of the kindred gong
to ruin. With the advent of spring
many will dispose of their farms and
remove to far off country, to undergo
the privations and troubles incident
upon establishing home in new
country. Our advice is to remain
where you are. If you are comfortably
of, be contented to remain. Do not
exchange a certainty for an uncertainty,
unless powerful reasons are brought to
bear upon you to seek new settlement
in a distant region. Stick to the old
farm, for it has never failed you in time
of need
