I AN IN ENTIRE ACCORD WITH THE PLATFORM
of the convention by which have been Rom.
mated as a candidate for the office Of Vice
President of the United States. Permit me,
in conclusion, to express my satisfaction at
being associated with a candidate for the
Presidency who is first among his equals as
the representative of the spirit or OF the
achievements of reform in his official career
as the executive of the grea. State OF New
York. He has, in a comparatively short PEI
Rod, reformed the public service ana reduced'
the public burden so as to have earned at
once the gratitude OF his State and the ad-
mlration of the country. The people know
him to be thoroughly in earnest. He has
shown himself TO be possessed with powers
which fit him in an eminent degree for the
great work OF reformation which this coun-
try now needs, and if he shall be chosen by
the people to the high office of President of
the United States, believe that the day of
his Inauguration will be the beginning Of q
new era OF peace, purity, and prosperity in
all the departments of our government l

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, July 4, 1876.
GENTLEMEN: | have the honor TO ack
the receipt of your communication
in which you have formally notified me OF
my nomination by the National Democratic
Convention at st. Louis as their candidate fol-
the Office of Vice President of the United
States. 1t Is nomination which | neither
expected or desired, and yet | recognize and
appreciate the high honor done me by the
convention. The choice of such body and
pronounced with such unusual unanimity
and accompanied with SO generous an eX.
preston of esteem and confidence ought to
OUTWEIGH ALL MERELY Personal DESIRES
and preferences of my own. II is with this
feeling, and, ! trust, also from deep sense
of public duty, that now accept the nomi.
nation, and | shall abide the judgment Of my
cOuntrymcn. 1t would have been impossible
for me to accept the nomination if could
not heartily indorse the platform of the con
ventinn. | am gratitied therefore, TO be able
IL declare that agree in the
principles, approve the policies, and sympa.
thiZe with the purposes enunciated in that
platform. The institutions of our country
have been sorely tried by the eXigencies Of
civil war, and since the peace by a selfish and
corrupt management of public affairs which
has shamed us before civilized mankind. BY
unwise and partial legislation every industry
and interest of the people has been made to
suffer, and in the executive department of
the government dishonesty, rapacIty, and
venality have debauched the public service.
Men known to be unworthy have been pro-
NOTED, while others have been degraded for
fidelity 10 official duty Public Office has
been made the means of private profit, and
the country has been offended TO see class
of men who boast the friendship Of the sworn
protectors OF the state amassing fortunes by
deirauding the public treasury and by cor.
rupting the servants of the people. In such

TAKE COUNSEL WITH YOURSELF.

Young men cannot estimate too
highly the advice of parents and
friends. Itaffords them the benefit OF
experience, and 6 given from sincere
solicitude for their welfare. 1t should
be. .reInemberedand weighed and acted
upon.
But, after all, every man has his
own individual existence; he has his
own lite to live, for which he alone is
accountable. He should derive all the
benefit he can from the counsel of
those older and wiser than himself.
Then he should sit down and mediate
by himself, and make up his mind as
to the course which he wishes to pur.
sue in the world. Having done this
he should enter upon the execution OF
his plans with determination to ac.
complish what be undertakes without
reference TO the opinions of others.
No man is of any real account in the
world unless be is something in and Of
himself.
No man possesses real strength if be
cannot, after having heard all that
others have to say, resolve, and re.
solve firmly, what to do, and carry hi.
resolution into effect.
Take counsel of others, profit by
ths ir experience and wisdom; but
above all, take counsel with yourself;
make up your mind what to do in this
world, and-do it.

A STORY ABOUT EGGS.

A traveller in Sicily paid his bill at
a~ fnn, and found out, alter lie had gone
soIne distance on theroad, that he had
Tot been charged for couple of hard
boiled eggs. He was a very honest
man; but he had pressing business.
So, instead of going back to pay then
and there, he waited till he came his
rounds again. This was not till ten
years after. No wonder. .herefore,
when he asked the inkeeper; do you
know mep the man said, Not |, in
deed" ''Well replied the traveller,
''ten years ago / ate two hard boiled
eggs in your house without paying for
them You didn't put them down in
the bill; and was in desperate hur-
ry, and couldn't come back when /
found it out. But things have pros
pered with me since then; and reckon
that if | give you fifty pieces twelve
shillings) that will fairly represent
what the price of eggs has gained in my
hands" But the landlord was . fraud,
so he said, Fifty pieces, indeed; /
must trouble you for deal more than
that. Its just the want of those eg,
that has hindered me from makingI
fortune" ''How soF ''Why y
would have turned to hens ar he
hens would have given me chicl,er =
whole poultry yard full. Well. with
the whole poultry yard I should have
bought some sheep, and by now |
should be quite big fiockmaster"
But the traveller could not see things
that way, so the inkeeper put him into
the Court, and the Judge pronounced
against him. he appealed, but there
didn't seem much chance of his being
any better off. when a briefless barris
ter, much out-at-elbow, touched him
on the shoulder and said, Leave it to
me, and viii get you righted" why,
I've had the best lawyers in Palermo"
replied the traveller; ''how can you
expect to do what they failed ing'
TRY me" said the other, and he was
so urgent that the traveller said ''yes,"
just to get rid of him. The case was
called, and the innkeeper's counsel had
made a grand speech, when there was
a noise outside, and in rushed Mr..
Briefiess, fiipging his arms widely
aLcut, and looking like one who had
seen a gost. ''Helpl" cried he ''help!
in the name of all the saints. What
shall we do2 ALI the big fish of Are.
nella are marching up to Palermo to
eat us up, bones and ALL" why, you
madmanT cried one of the Judges,
who ever saw fish walking on dry
landl" Sand who, your Excellency,"
replied Brieiess, lever heard of hard
boiled eggs turninginto chickens" So
the inkeeper lost even his fifty pieces
and had to pay costs in the bargain

PAPER INDUSTRY OF THE UNITED
STATES.

Last year does not appear to have
been profitable one for paper manu-
faeturers, at least according to Bissell's
Review aud Pr'ce List. 1t is more
over asserted that the paper mill prop
erty is rapidly depreciating. But it is
to be hoped that this is not the case
with all the 800 mills now in operation,
and which are valued at SAC, 200, 600
of capital invested, with a total pro-
duction estimated at $40, 0O0, 600. These
mills give employment nominally to
20, 600 people. whose earnings are foot
ed up at $40, 600, COO annually. This
represents very lar-H investment.
and immense labor, and it would be
unfortunate if it did not continue pro-
ductive of fair results, particularly as
any stoppage of work is very injurious
to the machinery. 1t appears that to
leave paper mill without use for one
year soQld cause depreciation Of ten
per cent, since when it is not contiuu-
ally repaired it decreases in value in a
greater ratio perhaps than ordinary
mills. With the constant increase OF
the reading and writing public it is to
be expected that the paper industry
will not long remain in this unsatisfac-
tory situation.
