Be kind to the book agent. He
has a father perhaps, and q mother
who knew him in his innocent youth.
Perhaps even now in some peaceful
New England village, fond hearts are
heating for him., and sweet lips
breathe loves dearest prayer for his
welfare. Therefore lay him down
~tenderly, fold his arms peacefully on
his breast. and close his eyes gently
as you put him to rest under the
branches of the weeping willow, where
tbs birds carol all through the sum
mer days their sweetest songs. But
plant him detp-plant him deep!

THE EMBROIDERY OF HISTORY.

One Of the bits Of history most ia
miliar to Americans is Jackson's bat
tie Of New Orleans, where, from be-
hind his breastWork Of cotton bales(a
material which the enemy's cannon
could not PIERCE he repulsed
with prodigious slaughter Packen-
hams veterans, fresh from their Eu-
ropean victories. This story of the
rampant of cotton, as related in both
English ann American histories, is.
however, purely apocryphal. It's or
lgln seems to have been the fact that
many days before the battle Of January
8th (for Jackson's troops had been
working steadily at the intrenchments
since Christmasl, about fifty cotton
bales were taken out OF neighboring
fiat boat and thrown into line Of
earthWorks to increase it's bulk.
About week before the assault, in
q preliminary SkirmiSh, as Walker tells
us in his jackson and New Orleans"
the enemy's balls striking one of these
bales, knocked it out of the mound, set
fire to the cotton, and sent it flying
about, to the great danger Of the am
munltl0n. All the bales were conse-
quently removed. "After this" con-
tlnues the account, "no Gotten bales
were ever used in the breastwork.
The mound was composed entirely
Of earth dug from the canal and the
field i'll the rear. The experiment of
using cotton and other articles in rails
ing the embankment had been discard
ed"
Again, for eighteen years after this
battle it was gospel with us that the
British officers at dawn "promised
their troops plentiful dinner at New
Orleans, and gave them booty and
beauty as the parole and countersign
OF the day" In 1888 General Lambert
and four other British officers, who
had been engaged in the luckless ex-
petition, denied this story, which &C.
Icordingly has measurably vanished out
OF history. The absurd fiction of the
"booty and beauty WatchWord reap
pears however, at intervals in our own
civil war, ascribed to General Beaur-
egard and other Confederate officers.
Our ancestors, ALSO, used to enjoy the
story OF Putnam's exploit at Horse
neck, where he escaped from party of
Tryon'S troops by forcing his horse
down q flight Of seventy stone steps
(another account sWells them to hEn-
dreO that formed the stairway by
which the villagers assembled to the
church on the brow of the hill. This
is the narration in Peters 'History of
Of Connecticut q work which Dwight,
calls "a mass of folly and falsehOod."
The story Of the stairway is sheer
fabrication, founded on thesfact that
common stones here and there aided
the villagers to ascend the hill; yet
there exist pictures of Putnam charg-
ing down long tier of seps as we'll de-
fined and regular as those Of the Cap
itol at Washington, while the discom.
fitted dragons at the top pour in q vol
ley that does not harm him.
A partial parallel to this exagger-
alton may be found in the current de-
scription Of "Sheridan's Ride" at Win
chester, q solid exploit, brilliantly
touched up in Buchanan Reads verse,
concerning which last the great caval,
ry general is said to have loosely re-
marked that if the bard had seen the
horse he never would have written the
poem. -G05Gay.

nHR KEE0SHA TELEGRAPH
OVATION ITO MIR. WHITF0RD.

The people Of Milton, the residenc e
of President Whitford, State Superin-
tendent elect, on learning Of his cleo
ton, gave him grand ovation on the
evening Of the 8th instant. Compli-
mentary addresses were made by Prof.
Rookwood, of Whitewater Normal
school, Gen. Bintliff, of the Evansville
Gazette Mr.. Saunders, and others.
President Whitford being called up
on, with deep emotion, spoke briefly,
and his remarks are thus reported in
the GAINESVILLE Gazette:
In modest and deeply impressive
manner, he referred to the trials Incl
dent to the campaign, and feelingly re-
ferred by name to several personal
friends who stood firmly by his side,
and sustained him through to the end,
until victory had been declared. To
the people Of Milton, also, who, through
so many years, had supported and
cheered him in the work which had
been so near his heart, he returned his
grateful acknowledgements. He then
spoke Of the broader field Of labor to
which the people Of the State had
called him, and said that, while he
fully appreciated our noble State Uni
yersity and the grand work which the
Normal Schools are doing, his mind
went out chiefly in deyising methods
by which greater advantages could be
brought to the district school, and the
youth throughout the rural districts of
the State be inspired with higher aims.
These are the sources from which the
intellectual and moral life Of the ma
ton is replenished, and I feel that they
are deserving Of special interest and
care; and, if I live to take possession
Of the Office at Madison, I shall en-
deayor to give practical effect to some
thoughts which experience and re-
Election have brought to me on the
subject.

Fruit and Vegetables in Winter,

Too little care is taken to secure the
keeping for convenient use Of our veg
etables and fruit in the Winter
A frost-proof house may cas-
lily and cheaply be made by making the
walls double of boards and filling in
between with some sawdust Or spent
tan bark. Put the boards On jointed
closely, tongued and grooved is best
inside and out, and especially on the
outside, mailing on to 2X6 inch stUdding.
Make the windows double sash and
glass, fitting tightly, and put in doub-
lie door, that is, one inside and one out
side of the wall. The ceiling must al
SO be double and filled in with the
same material The floor may be
ground, or what is better, made with
gravel and cement. The earth should
be thrown up around the building and
drainage given to carry away the wa
ter that falls. A house eight or ten
feet square, seven or eight feet high
inside, with shelves all around to hold
fruit and vegetables, would be lux
ury. 1t will keep the frost out in
Winter and be cool in the Summer.

THE GERMANS.

EDITOR OF THE TELEGRAPH:
SIR-In the Union Of the 6th inst,
under the head of ''The Elections" the
editor says, again there were great
many Germans who did not attend the
polls giving among other reasons,
''that had they fully understood that
the Democratic party favored no Gil
culating paper unless it was capable of
being convertible into gold OF silver
there would have been at least from
fifty to one hundred more Democratic
votes in this county"
The above is slur upon the intelli-
gence Of the German Democrats of our
State, for by examining the election re-
turns il will be seen that the German
districts in a great measure caused the
defeat Of the Democratic ticket, there
by entering a solemn and intelligent
protest against the thing adopted by
the Democratic convention at Fond
du Lac, and christened as the platform
of the Democratic Reform Party. /
take the following from the Christian
Statesman Of Milwaukee, which will
fully enlighten the editor of the Union
and give him the true cause, why the
Germans did not respond to the crack
Of the party whip, which is credit to
the intelligence Of the Germans Of Keno
sha county:
WHO DID IT?
When we make investigation into
the causes Of the great reverse the
Democrats have met in this city, which
has reduced their majority almost to
nothing. we find that there are in this
city large number Of Germans, whose
dignity of character, love of right, and
regard for fairness in politics, forbids
there being made the tools Of political
tricksters, and whose high business
qualities enables them to see that dis
aster must follow the advancement Of
any man to Office, OF any party to-
power, who can play the shyster in SO
important a matter as the financial
question. The Germans love stability ;;
they admire something solid in men as
well as in money, and with the con-
glomerate Of negatives and positiyes,
ups and downs, mysteries and decep-
tons Of the State Democratic platform
before them, they soon concluded what
to do, and the result of Tuesdays cleo
tons is but the hand writing on the
wall to the Democrats, and to our solid
thinking German citizens belongs the
honor of giving the center shot and
bringing down the game. With a few
DAYS more reflection and solid work it
is quite likely our German friends
would have swept the city clean for
RIGHT and honor, good order and good
government, and to them belongs the
great victory. A GERMAN.

Educational Department OF the Chi
cage Evening JoErnal.--A Phonetic
Branch Needed.
The Chicago Evening Journal has
established an Educational Depart
ment to be hereafter a regular and per-
manent feature Of the Supplement of
the Journal issued with The Daily
Evening Journal every Saturday and
with The Weekly Evening Journal ey-
cry Wednesday, to be under the gener-
al charge Of Prof. w. p. Jones, prac-
ticQl and accomplished teacher Of many
years experience. 1t promises to con-
tain the latest news from teachers,
schools, and colleges, the decisions of
Supreme Courts upon school questions,
and all official opinions and notices Of
superintendent of Public instruction,
for Ohio, Indiana, Wisconsin, Illinois,
Michigan, Iowa, Kansas ana Nebraska.
This is well. It. is high time that
some leading paper should establish
and maintain an Educational Depart
ment, and it may as well perhaps be
the Journal as any other paper. The
wonder is that the Journal or some
such paper had not established an Ed
ucational Department before. AS it
is, the Journal is about ten years be-
hind the TELEGRAPH. Nearly ton
years ago THE KENosIIA TELEGRAPH
established an EDUCATIONAL DEPART
MENT with an EDUCATIONAL EDITOR,
and it has continued and maintained it
to the present time.
AS the Journal has established an
Educational Department we hope it
will establish the phonetic system of
spelling and printing as branch of
that department. II we had reason
able expectancy of life for ten years to
come and suAiciency Of means, we
should establish a phonetic branch of
the Educational of the TELEGRAPH.
OF late years we have often thought of
doing it, but have as often thought that
circumstances would not warrant it.
We are willing that The Chicago ice
ming Journal should lead the The
Kenosha TELEGRAPH in establishing
a phonetic branch of the Educational
Department and hope it may DO SO
speedily.
