Our Cleveland cotemporary the Herald
is very bold and Independent, and speaks
forth in tones that leave no uncertainty as
to its position and meaning on questions
in reference to some of the ways of the ex-
ecutive-of the principles enunciated, and
which, are having their effect as they are
reduced to practice. Here is an extract,
from an article in late number.
ga great deal has been said and written
in favor of the Presidents policy OF cOncil-
iation, and the folly of rejecting the Prod
igal Son" after he had seen the error of
his ways This all sounded well. and de-
ceived many good people. But when this
mawkish notion went so far that the Adj
minsitration affected to look coldiy upon
Republicans, and warm into life by official
patronage, Democrats, whose gratitude in
time, would be shown in stinging the hand
that fed them, we thought it wise to call u
hault We had no objections to the prod
'igal Son." on the contrary were quite
ready to welcome him, and rejoice over
him. But we did not fee! like deciding
him the homestead away from the other

The late serious reverses and losses of
the Sublime Porte, rather warrants the
opinion, that peace would be agreeable to
Turkey. While this sentiment is hecom-
ing the popular idea Of the world, Rus
sia shows no disposition to either end the
war, or to define the terms upon which
she would consider the question. Hav-
ing within some eight months, overrun
and conquered the greater part of Arme-
mia and Bulgaria, she is in just the
frame of mind to proceed and subjugae
Turkey.

The general tenor of the report of Hon.
John Sherman, Secretary of the Treasury,
had generally been anticipated, as it was
supposed that his views on resumption were
indicated in his Mansfield address, last fall.
He holds on to the opinion that resumption
is practicable for the date fixed, January /,
1879. The construction of the resumption
act in one particular, however, GENES some-
what unexpected to many, wherein he holds
to the opinion that the resumption act au-
thOrizes the Secretary of the Treasury to
keep afoat 300 millions legal tender curren-
CIV, which would enable the banks 20 re-
deem National bank notes in greenbacks or
specie, at their option, while the govern
ment would assume the responsibility of
keeping the greenbacks on a par with gold.
Gen. Garfield, in speech delivered in
Warren, last fall, took substantially the
same ground in regard to the greenback
circulation, and argued that resumption on
that basis, instead of tending TO contrac-
tion, favored initiation or an increase of the
circulating medium. Mr.. Sherman recon-
mends that the legal tender feature of the
greenbacks he retained, and that the free
banking clause Of the resumption act be
continued. Mr.. Sherman's plan which
proposes keeping the 300 million legal ten
ders out in addition to 100 millions of
gold which would probably be put in circu-
lation, and % millions of silver, would
seemingly make resumption a comparative
ly easy matter. He recommends the coin
age of the silver dollar, under such restric-
tions as will keep it on a gold level, which
it is believed may be accomplished by linz
iting the amount Of its coinage and also its
legal tender quality.

A Host of Asses.

A man named Jean dc Falasic was
hanged in the sixteenth century for a Sc
ries Of murders. TO all questions he re-
piled with song, and on the scaffold, and
in the presence Of six thousand persons,
he asked, and obtained permission to say
a few words. Then he begged the throng
to join in the chorus Of a popular ditty
"There were four asses in a field, nipping
the tender grass" which consisted Of i'm,
itations of braying. Then said Jean: Il
die happy because at my last moment I
heard 5000 asses braying at once, and I
have no desire to live with such fellow
creatures. > " 0vsTa ss.

Cultivate singing in the family. Begin
when the child is not yet three years old.
The songs and hymns which your mother
sang, bring them all back to your memory
and teach them to your little ones; mix
them all together, to meet the similar
moods, as in after life they may come
over us so mysteriously sometimes. Many
time and oft, in the very whirl of bust
ness, the sunshine and gayety of the
streets, and amid the splendor of the
drives in the park, some little things
wake up the memories of our early youth
the old mill; the cool spring; the shady
tree by the little school the
next instant we also see again the ruddy
cheeks, the smiling faces, and the merry
eyes of schoolmates, some gray headed
now, almost "lie Wondering in the
grave.'' And " the song my mother
sang" springs unbidden to the lips
cries.
At other times among the crushing mis-
haps of business, a merry ditty Of the
the olden time pops up its little head,
breaks in upon the ugly train of thought,
throws the mind in another channel: light
breaks in from behind the cloud in the
sky and new courage is given to us. The
honest man goes singing to his work, and
when the days labor is done, his tools laid
aside, and on his home, where wife and
child, and tidy table, and cheerful fire,
side await him, he cannot help but whistle
or sing.
