To Judge from the tone OF the CoNK11Na
press, the situation in the Republican party re-
setnbles that on board the Sary Jane, as graph
ically described br ARrEMUs WARD in his noyel

Here is the situation:
noble ship the sa1y Jane is sailing from France to
America along the Wabash Canal. a prut bote Is In

and bucr overcote rushes on deck aud SEE he to the

the starboard bulkhesd IN take charge OF this bote.
The Sary Jane, in dis ingenious story, is the
Republican party; the pirut botc is the Dcmoc-
1acY; the Capting Of the SD. is Mr. HAYES; and
the noble youth In russet boots and buffer
oycrcote is Roscoe CosKLEG, otherwise
"Moses the Sassy; for, The Disguised Juke."
History, it will readily be seen, repeats itself.

made sum equal to ten millions Of dollars OF

Mr. C.JEREMIAn Vanderbilt, IT,, says that
he Invented new way Of getting rid of bores:
he borrowed money from them. This idea vas
cvidently pirated from the excellent Vicar Of

probation OF human nature, used to lend his
bore something,-money, or an old coat, or q

4 MAN or CHEEK.


Sam Baily, says the Virginia City Chro.
nicle, was brought before the police court
yesterday on suspicion of having been
connected with a number of petty laCre-
MES. The man was given until to-day
ut three o'clock to plead, and then allow
ed to go on his own recognizanCe, which
in polite terms means "Get out of town
as fast as you can, and don't ever show
up again." This man has a peculiar his
tory, He came to the coast several wears
ago, round the Horn. His real name is
Van YeCklan, and his family, who have
long since disowned him, are among the
first in New York City, holding forth in
q palatial residence on Fifth avenue.
Getting into evil courses the young man
ran away to sea, and in Frisco called
himself Sam Baily. For some time he
served as canvasser for the Evening
Post. Before he took to drink his activ-
ity as Canvasser was proverbial, and his
solid cheek the envy of his soCiates. He
was the chap who telegraphed to his
father under an assumed name, "Your
son is dead; what shall 1 do with the
body" and beat the old gent out of S15O
IOI luu6Idl eAp6uS6b, WHICH kept MIN
gloriously drunk for three weeks The
writer once called to interview Victoria
Woodruff and found Bailey there, sitting
in rocking chair, his feet resting on top
of the stove, talking to Vic and Tennie
on the most familiar terms. He had
known them both in New York, and was
indulging his conversational proclivities
somewhat in this style: "Say, Tennie,
how does the old town look since left?
Vic hasn't changed hair since saw her
last. Shove that old spit box in range
and give me whach at it." Tennie push
ed the spittoon as directed, and Baily,
throwing his head to the right sent a
stream of tobacco juice over Vic's lap,
and when it struck the spittoon the ves-
sci shook from center to circumference.
He knew all the notables, and was never
abashed in the presence of high digni-
taries. He called on King Kalakau at
the Grand Hotel, and his Maiestey was
so taken with his sang .frOid and solid
American cheek that he set up the cham
pagne royalty, and Bailey, in a burst of
generosity, offered to drive him out to
the Cliff. Bailey is now a sot and
vagabond.

GOLDEN WORDS.


Beware the fury of patient man,
dryden.
Fine manners are the mantle of fair
minds Alcott,
All luxury corrupts, either the morals
or the taste.-[ Joubert.
Receive thoughts as guests and treat
your desires like children.
For where your treasure is, there will
your heart be also.- Jesus.
If you would keep a secret from an en-
emy, tell it not to friend.
Have the courage to be in minority
when you know the truth is there.
Justice to your neighbor and comfort
to ourselves are one and the same thing.
The highest clouds seem to move slow
est, and so, too. does everything great,
Have the courage to do right at the
risk Of being ridiculed by those around
you.
If persons would take more trouble
about living they would be less troubled
when dying.
We can hardly learn humility and ten
derness enough except by suffering
George Eliot.
Have the courage to say no, when you
are tempted to spend that which belongs
to your creditors.
Find earth where grows no weed, and
you may find heart where no error
grows Knowles.
Keep the horrors at arms length.
Never turn a blessing round to see
whether it has a dark side to it.
If a man could only look at himself
with sober eye when he is drunk he
would never drink again.
Uneasy and ambitious gentility is al
ways spurious. The garment which one
has long worn never sits uncomfortably.
Says Emerson All souls are better be-
levers in immortality than they can give
grounds for. The evidence is too subtle.
