''got along very comfortably for some time
without a literary TELLER at Berlin; May
nard is away from his post visiting friends in
this State; Stoughton got sick at st. Peters
burg, and is travelling for his health; Lowell
finds nothing to do in Spain, and is coming
home for vacation; Welsh discovers that
his only duty is to spend more money than
he gets. and talks of rssignIng. Noyes is tag
ging around after Grant; Seward does more
solid work defending himself from investi-
cation at Washington than he ever did in
China; Marsh is too sick to attend to bust
ness; Foster is coming home to run for the
Senate. Really, it seems as if we could get
along without any of them"

NEW YoRK has a society for the encourage
ment of moderation in drinking alcoholic
beverages. At recent meeting the secretary
of the society, in his address, told his audi
ence that "the time had passed when sem
'sible man would say to an intelligent audi
tence, in the expectation of being believed,
that those who deal in alcoholic drinks are
'murderers, and that all who drink are on
'the-downward road to hell" The society
'totfers four forms of pledges. The first, of q
red color, is pledge of total abstinence.
The second is white, and binds the signer
not to drink during business hours. The
blae pledge prohibits treating at public bars.
and the last, on which is flag of red, white
and blue, limits the signer to nothing
stronger than wine and beer. and permits
these only at meals and in moderation. The
pledges ali begin with the words: 4 hereby
solemnly pledge my sacred honor and no
appeal Is made to God for help. Mr.. Hadley
explained this omission by saying that here

been placed upon the Almighty

THE REVOLUTION.

The organs of the Republican conspira-
tors and the whole army of conspirators
themselves, the men who plundered
the South as carpet baggers and
robbed the treasury under Grant
men who Violated law, deied law,
stabbed constitutions, dispersed legislative
bodies with bayonets, who piled fraud upon
fraud in the interest of party, and crowned
their colossal iniquities with perjury to
inaugurate Hayes. are continuous
ly harping upon the resolution
which they declare the Democratic party is
now engaged in, and which, as il rolls on,
Is, according to their prognostics, to play
eIaash with all the cherished nights and
liberties of the people. These organs of
villains and the villains themselves
knew full well that every measure brought
forward by the. Democratic majority in
Congress is In the interest of the people.
The Democracy fully understand the policy
and purpose OF the Republican conspirators,
and are seeking by entirly legitimate means
to relieve the statutes of some OF the
most odions and infamous legislation
that ever disgraced the country. In
doing this, however. the Democrats IN
Congress are: not depriving the con-
spirators Of any rights or privileges
that belong to them. They are permitted to

oId-Time singing.

The following old-time incident was
recently related by Mrs. Hannah Forward
Clark of East CRANKY. Mrs G. will be 81
years of age the 18th of April and is very
well. both in mind and body. Her life has
not lost its sunshsne and she seems to enjoy
nothing better than story or chat with
the young folks. She was inquired of in
respect to the changes, If any, which the
form of public worship had undergone
since her first remembrance, and especially
the music She said, among other thir-s.
that the "lining'' of psalms was dropped
before her day, but that she had heard it
related that it was practiced shortly before.
She said story was told of an old deacon of
the First church In East CRANKY, who arose
in his place TO line the psalm, as usual, and
having carefully adjusted his spectacles,
raised his psalm book, and incidentally
spoke .''Im almost bind" The waiting
congregation took up the words and sang
them as line. The deacon, much annoyed.
tried to explain: Il can scarce see at ALL"
which also they sang in solemn measure. In
holy indignation the deacon raised both
hands, and exclaimed: You're all be-
witchedp' and this too, was rendered in
praise; whereupon the deacon Moderated
loudly, 1.-The devils in every one of youl"
Such a change in the sentiment, as well as
the metre, brought the singers to stand
still, and after some confusion they sang the
proper psalm. Mrs. G. was unwilling to
vouch for the truth of the story, bnt said il
was commonly related long ago. She
strongly insisted that the singing was far
better in s.ye oiden time' than now, and
we agreed that she was right. She feels that
she had never heard nor ever win, in this
world, any music like the songs of her
childhood There are never after singers
like those. Is it not so with us all? 90

THERepubllcan organs which applaud per-
jury as meaus of eleeting president, have
adopted method of lying which they be-
lieve will help their cause amazingly. 1t
is to publish interviews with distinguished
Southern leaders or Democratic senators
who preface their remarks witt q request
that their names be withheld from the pub
lie. This request the conspirator organs
readily grant, and then the wholesale lying
proceeds. The New York Tribune deals
largely in that kind of literature.

of the Treasury for information on
the subject and obtained the follow
ing official statement: The coinage
of silver ive-cent pieces was discon-
tinued several years ago, on account
of their smallness and consequent
liability to be lost. The sub-treas-
ury at San Francisco has within its
vaults about $4,000 in nickel coins
besides $21 900 in bronze five cent
coins. These can be exchanged at
any time for legal tenders, and
again redeemed by the Treasurer

well, the extent of the business
transacted every day by Messrs. D. j.
Chambers & Son. One or two items
may suffice for a little enlighten-

of Victoria, Messrs. Hickman & Of
ner, purchased of Chambers & Son,
last week, a thousand dollars worth
OF smoked meats to send into the
northern mines. These meats go to
Victoria tomorrow by the North
Pacific. The Port Blakely and Port
Gamble mill companies also make
frequent and large acquisitions on
Messrs. Chambers u Son, for sup
plies of dressed and salted meats, to
stock the larders of their outgoing
lumber vessels. Besides the sales
already mentioned, large Quantities
OF meats are weekly supplied the
neighboring logging-camps. AL
together, the firm constitutes one of
the leading business institutions of
this city.

articles of wooden ware brought
from San Francisco to the Sound
are, in many instances, manufac.
tured from the same fir and cedar
lumber shipped thither from our
sawmills. Now, we regard this pol
icy as more unwise than carrying
Goals to Newcastle. While we have
plenty of water and steam power,
inexhaustible quantities of as fine
woods as the world can furnish and
skilled labor, to transform the rough
material into beautiful creations, we
conceive it to be the veriest folly to
import household furniture and an in
finitude of wooden utensils, paying
for them a much larger price than
they would cost here. In this way,
thousands of dollars are annually
sent ont of the country which could
and should be kept at home to be
expended in developing our resour-
ces.
