Frozen Kindness.

This world is full of kindness that neysr
was spoken, and that is not much batter
than no kindness at all. The fuel IN the
stove is what makes the room warm, but
there are great piles of fallen trees lying on
the hills where no ops can get them, these
do not make zaybody warm. You might
freeze t. death fer want of wood, in plain
sight of sll these trees if you had no means
of getting the wood home and making D
FIRE with it. Just Sc Ia family; love is
just what makes parents and children,
brothers and sisters happy, but it they
take Gaze neTer to say a word aboas it-ii

drinking entered the car in which he W, ;

became indecent. Two ladies, accompanied
only bp small, boy, sat opposite to these
rowdies. Morrissey left his seat, walked
up to the offenders, and said, good natured-
ly, "ceme boys, let's go into the smoking
car and have good cigar" one of the men
churlishly declined. Morrissey then seat
ed himself in front of them and ask them
not to talk 80 loud. Immediately one of
them began to tell an indelicate story
Morrissey requested him TO desist, and was
told in reply to mind his own business
"My bnsiness," said Mrrrissey, is to pro
tect ladies from insult, and if either of you
say another improper word / will pitch
you both out of the car. The men rose
simultaneously, one making a pass a
Merrissey, which was of course warded of

gARFIELD's SPEECH REVIEWED.

He said: '"The opinion OF lo6O-|
81 was the aggregated opinion of all
the Americans on the subject of fl
nance and currency"
Then we had swarms Of local and
state banks, promises to redeem In
coin, failures to so redeem, and all the
evils to supply currency by banks of
issue. That was the result of part
of their opinion. The other part was
no better, for it presumed 200, 900, 900
of coin and 2O7, 100000 of paper mon
ey was sufficient in quantity and quail
ity. To this opinion we are asked to
knesl and bow in reverence, and the
simpleton whs points us to 1860 for
perfection in finance and would return
to that condition, is fool enough, we
should think, to return also to the
opinions of the "fathers" and re-estab-
lish slavery itself.
On page 5, Mr.. Garfield, who has
been named for the Presidency since
making his late speech in Congress,
said:

II it was forced on the Army il

SC IF the government changed it;

B)ndholder got gold, how comes i
that the patriotic Mr.. Garfield forgo
to pay the Army the, difference ther
existing between Gold and Green
backs? The difference then being q
per cent. There is due to the Arm,
mustered out about 1000, 10000 il
gold if the interest be counted. VIII,
are the Bondholders SO much NOR
precious in the eyes of Republica
law makers than the boys in blue?
"The volume of currency depend
upon a higher law than Congress Q
government can make"
This does not turn our eyes Hea,
onward for the "higher law" like tn
old abolitionists did, but to the "Ay
gregated wisdom" of 1S6C-61,. whe
the labor riders had happy tim
ileecing the Aocks of the gentiles. Ths
must be the "higher law"
81 do not believe in keeping Greer

gang of plumbers denying that tt

A very peculiar bill was passed in con-
gress December l. 1t was to allow each
surviving officer of the lost steamer Huron
$1,000 and each seaman 500. We cannot
comprehend why the law max ing power of
a country where ''all men are born equal
can make such discrimination between
man and man. Were the officers COMPEL
ed to endure greater hardships? Did they
work harder to save their more precious
lives? We seriously doubt it. But let it &c
on record that the congress of the United
States has officially determined that an
officer is worth just ten times as much, a:
one of the common rd.-Labor Adrdnce.

SunfloWer Seed for Fowls.

We have, for years, been aware of the
value of sunfower seed in the fall of the
yee-, and in winter time, too, as food for
fowls. This plant should be grown by eve
~ poultry grower in the country who has
the opportunity to raise only few stalks,
even. For its properties for CLOSING the
plumage of exhibition birds are altogether
remarkable. Buckwheat, properly fed, will
operate similarly; but the latter, is by far
to heating in its nat1re' in comparison with
the other.
This plant is very gross grower, butt
yields wondrouslY, and may be set in any
soil where other : u;ts or vegetable cannot
be conveniently = ;sed-fcr examplo clong
the sides of fences, or anywhere where the
soil S not easily cultivated as IN the open
fields. If given good chance-as other
gra= IS have-it will grow luyuriantly and
VII repay its care, for its yield is many
hundred fold under ordinary cultivation
The great Russian sunfowsr s s. new
thing with US in this country, ard mar

seed. The flowers are double the avere-
dimensions of the common South America
variety so we'll known among US, and as
