Civil Service and Politics.

WARRINGTON, aug. ~.
Charges have been preferred from
different parts of the country before
the President against Federal officials
for active interference in the management of
political conventions, and he has been asked
whether his Civil Service order is still in force,
or whether, as has been stated in various quar-
tiers, he now regards it as dead-letter. To
one of these correspondents the President,
few days since, addressed the following reply:
MY DEAR GENERAL: I have your note as to
the inteferenceo of Federal officeholders in the
Republican County Conventions This is the fret
l have heard of it. I agree. with you
that the interference of public officials with
partisan political management ought to be
stopped, and that the order on the subject be
enforced. The truth is, that the less public
officers have to do with partisan political man
agement the better it is for the public service
and for their party. A public officer can best
promote the interests of his party by rendering
faithful and efficient service in performing the
duties of his office. If you will send me the
names of those you complain of, with brief
statement of the facts against them, will see
that the affair is looked into and Justice DONE
am glad to know that the rue on the sub
ject is more generally complied with as it is
better understood, and that the public senti-
ment sustalns 1t. r. B. HAYES

Nice jelly Cake.

will give recipe for roll jelly-cake. I have
tried great many recipes, and this is tbs only
one could get to roll: Beat dozen eggs and
one pound of pulverized sugar together very
lightly; then stir in three quarters of pound of
flour, making batter as thick as for sponge
cake; have pans lined with brown paper; no
grease on pan or paper; when done let it cool
few minutes: turn out of the pan while warm,
brush lightly over paper and pull it off; spread
cake with jelly and roll up. To make vinegar
pie, take one-half cup vinegar, two cups water,
one cup of sugar. and let boil for few min
utes; then add two table spoonfuls corn starch,
wet in water and let boil a minute: flavor with
lemon and bake with one crust. Moss Rose.

Smile Whenever You Can.

ELECTED BY MRS. K. NJ. STONE, ELKADER, IOWA.
When things don't go to suit you,
And the world seems upside down,
Don't waste your time in fretting,
But drive away that frown.
Since life is Oft perplexing,
Ills much the wisest plan,
To bear all trials bravely,
And smile whene'er you can.
Why should you dread tomorrow,
And thus despoil to-day.
For when you borrow trouble.
You always have to pay:
1t is good old maxim,
Which should be often preached,
Don't cross the bridge before you
Until the bridge is reached.
59s You might be spared much sorrow So 141
If you would keep in mind
The thought that good and evil
Are always here combined.
There must be something wanting,
And though you roll in wealth, =
You may miss from your casket,
That precious jewel. health.
And though you're strong and sturdy,
g. - You have an empty purse; egaz g
Earth has it's many trials,
Which I consider worse, sB r& A.
But, whether JOY or sorrow
Fill up your mortal span,
Twill make your pathway brighter,
70 smile Whence er you can.

POLITICAL POINTS.

Col. Brownlow, of Tennessee, recent
in regard to the nomination of Gen. Grant The
latter is represented as saying that another
term as President could add no glory to fame
great as Grants, and his influence for good,
with his countrymen of all parties, would be
far greater out of Office than in it. As the Gen.
erals friend, he was earnestly opposed to his
candidacy. He was also satisfied that it was
distasteful to Gen. Grant to again be made a
candidate for Office"

joy most. And | want to tell you city ladies
how we like to have you come to see us, and
how much we enjoy society, which is necessa-
rily SO limited on the farm But did it ever
occur to you howinconvenientit is for farmers
wives and daughters to have company
through harvest time and the excessively hot
weather. Is 1t pleasant for you to sit on cool
verandas, or wander through gardens and
orchards plucking the choicest fruit and flow
ers, enjoying all the pleasures of INDECENT
country life, while your hostess stews, and
roasts, and boils, and bakes, preparing dainty
articles for you to eat?-milking and churning
early and late in order to procure the ''sweet
cream" and "grass butter" for you to grow
romantic over, wnen you come leisurely in

These, and hundreds of others are duties that
fall to the lot of country women, which their
city sisters (as a rule) do not think of when
they wish to "rusticate" for few weeks
