General Grant in Liverpool re-
ceived all the honors and pomp-
osity of royalty. He will make
a big swell in court circles, and
be worshiped and fawned around
as one of the mighty ones of the
earth. 1t is astonishing to see
with what adulation these cock
neys of old England bow the
knee and fawn around a man
whose actual intelligence is be-
low the standard of American
craftsmanship and generalship.
The worthless of old John Bull
are at an actual loss to know
how to treat him. They do not
know whether they must regard
him as a representative of our
government, or as private indi-
vidual. If he is to be taken by
the foreign element as a fair sam
pie of our great and good men,
then we say God help this coun-
try, for the standard greatness
of Daniel Webster, Henry Clay
and John G. Calhoun has depart
ed forever from the councils of
the Union. We are inclined to
think that the rich ancedote told
of Artemus Ward when a pomp-
Gus old fellow approached him
while travelling on steamboats,
more applicable than anything
else: "Well, sir,'' said the old
gentleman, "Grant is kicking up
hell all over the Southern States
observation-disclosures to me |
have heard of that name-Grant
well tell me who he u.s." said
Artemus. The old fellow turned

NEVER KNOCK UNDER.-No,
never! Always rally your forces for
a more desperate assault upon ad
versity. IT calumny assails you,
and the world-as it is apt to in
such cases-takes part with your
traducers, don't turn moody or mis-
anthropic, or, worse still, seek to
drown your unhappiness in dissipa-
ton. Bide your time. Disprove the
SANDER if you can; if not, live it
down. If poverty comes upon you
like thief at night, what then!
Let it rouse you, as the presence of
thereal thief would do, to energetic
action. No matter how deeply you
may have gone into hot water
always provided you did not help
the father of lies to heat it--your
case, if you are of the right kind oil
stuff, is not desperate, nor is it in
accord with the divine order and
sweep Of things that live should
have any difficulties which an hon
est determined man, with Heavens
help, can not surmount

PEOPLE IN RUSSIA are
but two classes OF people in Russia
the masters and the peasants All
the peasant has is his masters.
There is no literature worth speak
ing of. How can there be when the
writer of book with one or two
liberal ideas in it is liable to be pun
ished, and his book to be forbidden?
The best books written on Russia
have been written by Russians who
live out of Russia, from necessity or
choice, and such books are, of
course, not allowed to pass the from
tier. The emperor is reverenced as
the representative of heaven. The
peasants live-are born, bred and
die-in filthy novels, in which we
should think it a shame to store
cattle. They are learned nothing,
know nothing, except such things
as concern primitive native toll. The
priests are peasants too, and know
little except the Office book. written
in, SlavonIe, a language which the
Russian peasants do not understand.
The fact is, Russian civilization is
nothing but tissue of make shifts.

Senator Dawes takes a practi-
cal view of the situation, saws
the Boston Post. He would have
"every Republican stand by the
President" for the reason that
the old policy could not be main
tanned without running the party
and placing the power of the
Government-especially "the
appointments, the appropria-
tions"-in the hands of the Dem
ocrats. He declares that the
party must "either change it's
medicine or buy its coffin" But
the coffin is already bought, and
Mr.. Boutwell,, unlike Mr.. Dawes,
declares that the party is ready
to get into it and lie right down.

found it so, you whose well-known
virtues have placed you in a posi-
ton which You occupy with feelings
of commendable pride? And you
whose fame has been the target of
envious tongues, have not you seen
good name to be the. only breast
plate that is impervious to the pOis,
oned shafts of calumny? Gold and
talent, what are these without a
character? A light to render dark
ness visible; gliding, which, by
contrast, makes the substance more
revolving. Cherish it then, all We
who possess it; guard it carefully
for, depend upon this, its purity
once furnished, the most unweary
ing efforts will hardly restore it to
it's pristine lustre. Let it attend
you through the journey Of life,
GROWING your days with peace and
happiness. The rectitude which won
it will engrave upon your face a let
ter of recommendation to people of
every nation and tongue. And
when the treasure is no longer need
full to you, it shall decend to your
posterity, legacy with which mil
lions would bear to be compared.

The Cincinnati Enquirer on Sat
urday printed an interview with
Senator Beck, of Kentucky. He
thinks the Presidential question
ought not to be reopened; that the
Democrats shouldn't get off their
platform because the Republican
President has got on to it, but favors
making the fight upon the living
issues of money, tariff, reform and
popular justice. as expressed i'll the
st. Louis platform. He denounces
bitterly what he terms the cowardice
of the New York politicians, who,
he says, failed to come to the front
when the Presidential fight was real
ly at its hottest, and thus lost the
day.
