currency and free religion. In this
age of incorporated monopoly this
creed is hateful, and any man who
would propagate it must share the fate
of Rienzi, the tribune.
| am vain of the solicitations 1 have
received to stand for Congress, and
assure those who have offered me their
support, that l shall actively advocate
the reforms they are pursuing. 1
would not, however, insist upon the
usual of greenbacks if the Govern
meut would discredit it. In fact it
begins to appear important to take all
power to make money away
from the Federal Government, as il
seems bent upon discounting and dis
grazing every currency it may put out;
as is now seen in the trade dollar.
shall expect, as soon as the New York
gold bugs get off the gold they have
monopolIzed at fifty per cent premium,
the Government will set it at discount
by the amount Of glass in the dollar,
and so scalp the country again. Well,
monopoly has, in all ages, worked its
own destruction. There can be no
doubt but that its deiestable tyranny is
approaching its fate in the U. 5. Then
labor will resume that sovereignty to
which it was exalted when the Almigh-
ty said I'm the sweat of his brow he
shall eat bread" Obediently &C.,

Resolutions of Respect.
In Memory Of Joseph McDanIeI.

I'm Memory of Joseph Mcdaniel.
Alta called meeting of Rosine Lodge,
No. $50, A. Y. NJ, the undersigned
were appointed a committee to draft
suitable resolutions relative to the
death of Joseph Mcdaniel. The COM
mittee thereupOn submitted the follow
ing:
WHEREAS, That memorable leveler
of human nature, death, has removed
from this life our lamented brother
and co-laborer in the lodge below to
rest in the Grand Lodge above, over
which the Grand Master and Architect
of the universe presides therefore be
it
Resolced, That the members of Ro-
sine Lodge have heard with feelings
of deep regret of the untimely death
of Bro, Joseph Mcdaniel, lately an
industrious and faithful member Of
their lodge. After life of usefulness
and honor to himself, his friends and
his country, he has prematurely been
compelled to lay down the implements
of our Order, and his good name is not
called in the ranks of the living.
Resolved, That in the death Of our
worthy brother, Rosine Lodge has sus-
tanned a grievous loss, his family a kind
husband and an aHec6Onate father, his
fellow citizens q useful and honorable
man, one whose place in the walks of
life and duty it will be difficult to fill.
ResOlUed, That the members Of this
lodge wear the usual badge Of mourn
ing for thirty Gays.
Resolved, That we tender our warm
est sympathies to the afflicted family of
our dear brother in their bereavement,
and that a memorial in the minutes of
this lodge be inscribed to the memory
of him whose death we sadly mourn,
and a copy of these resolutions sent to
the bereaved family, and to the Hart
ford HERALD for publication.

BUFoRD, KY, Aug. 26, 1873.
Editor Herald:
The dropping courage Of the farm
! ing class of this community was evil
IDENTIFY aroused by the invigorating
shower of rain yesterday morning,
which will improve the condition of
the present growing crop. We are
very sorry to note that great deal of
sickness is now prevailing in this sec
ton. Miss Cora Bell. one of the
aimable daughters of Thomas Bell, an
old citizen of Bufard, is lying quite
sick. There are also many cases of
fevers in this immediate neighborhood,
too numerous to mention.
WatermeIons are indeed Il luxury
with us this season. Peaches are also
in great abundance.
Mr.. jeff Allison and wife, of Hend-
erson, arrived in BufOrd few days
since, where they will remain short
time among their relatives.
L. l.. Sullenger made his departure
from Buford according to the will of
the good citizens of Ohio county last
Monday morning to take charge of the
Jail in Hartford. While regretting to
lose "uncle Ras," one of our best citi-
tens, from our midst, we wish him all
the success imaginable in the position
which he has honOrably attained.
l.. NJ. Kelley has been in our burg
for three weeks past with his tent,
making pictures. We give Mr.. Kel-
ley the praise of being one of the best
artists that has ever taken the fac-semi-
les of the ugly old bachelors and beau
tiful young ladies Of this section. l
don't wish to see you captivated, Mr..
Editor, but if you will cOEe down to
our village l will show you a group l
had "tooken" for myself
Miss AIollie French. one of the
charming young bellies of this section,
left last Tuesday for our neighboring
town, Beda, where she will spend few
weeks among friends.
Mr.. John Bell, a resident of this
place, was sitting on a large goods box
one morning last week before the dry
goods store of Rogers 81 King, when
very suddenly the plank on which he
was seated slipped of at one end, let.
ing John down head foremost with
terrible crash into the bottom of the
box, which was about five feet high.
One or two of us seized him by the feet
and OF pulling Linn out and examining
him found that his neck had come in
contact with a nail that was sticking
in the box, inhicting considerable
wound, and would have, undoubtedly,
been very serious one had the nail
been substantially located. 1t was
quite laughable scene to those pres
ent, but not so funny to Mr.. Bell, as
his neck has not entirely recovered
fr0m Its soreness yet.
Mr.. West Peyton, near Hartford,
has been employed to teach the district
school at the Holbrook schoOl-house
this fall. AS Mr.. Peyton has had a
great deal of experience as a teacher,
it will doubtless be conducted with sat
isfactory results.
Mr.. Albert Dorsey, a young gentle
man of this section, on his return from
an exhibition at the Howard school
house, given by the young ladies and
gentlemen of that neighborhoOd, and
which we had the pleasure OF attend
ing, was thrown from his mule, but
fortunately escaped with ne serious in
juries. More anon, SAUCE.

An amicable adjustment of the En-

the aim of every member Of the party
who places measures before men, and

PARTING.

At twilight we parted
Our hearts touched with sadness,
As thoughts Of the past hours
We spent in loves gladnoss,
Would rise to our minds eve
Ia con 'raSt now blended,
With dread separations chill
Which perhaps was Portended'
Across the green meadow
where stands the old stil',
We sat chatting merrIy
OF the sweet yet a while;
Our hearts thrObbed in unison
A. our friendship was plighted,
Our hands met in silent clasp
As our eyes with love lighted.
Twas in blythe, gladstone May
That We met, loved and parted,
The gay Southern mOcking bird
To is night rest had started,
The star tWinkled merrilv

Look bright and chcerily,
Take heart and be gay.
Ne'er can times icy fingers
Nor arrangements cold chill,
Touch loves shining banner
True friendship 10 still,
Tho sadness has entered
The fond heart before,
Loves light will Ger brighten
When parting's no more.
