EVER since the Democratic Convention Of
1865, when Senator pENDLEToS and his
Greenback horde from the wild, wild West
were hooted at in the streets Of New York,
that great soft-money leader has made de-
termined advances TO secure the control of
the Democratic party in behalf of his al
legged financial principles lie was over
thrown at Baltimore in 1872, and at 81.
Louis in 1876, as he had been in New York
in 1865; but lie now seems to be marching
to the front with harbingers of victory
lowering over him. When the hard-money
leaders shall have been dethroned in the
Senate PENDLEToN will be entitled TO recog-
milton as persistent and consistent advo-
cate of the successful "Idee." Who knows
but that Presidential prospects may lurk
behind these contingencies.

ANOLD MANS DREAM.

Telling along with weary step in
the hot sun. On old man found shade
and sat down to rest under . tsee
which some kind hand had planted
long years before. Some children
watched him from across the street,
wondering If he had no one to lean on
aud no home to 60 to.
The wind whispered softly through
the branches overhead. and the shade
was SO cool and refreshing that the old
man slept. He dreamed that he had
II home again, and children played be-
fore tho door. He returned from his
days work as OF yore, and little faces
were at the gate to be kissed. and little
voices cried out in glec. Around his
table were wife and sons. and he sat
with them on the porch rs the sun went
down and had heart big with thanks
giving. Then his dream changed.
He again sent his sons to war, never
to see them again. and no once more
stood beside the coffin Of his wife and
felt that earth mad no more happiness
for him. In his dream be saw
strangers in his hon G, strange children
at the gate. and he beheld himself
old and poor and forsaken His tears
fell, aud when he awoke he found he
wa. crying out in the bitterness Of his
heart.
Il had better be dead, for no one
soul on earth cares for me !"
He looked down and there was food
at his feet. The ragged old hat which
he had laid aside was replaced by q
better one, and inside it was Q childs
handkerchief and three or four pennies.
Hidden behind the fence across the
way the children noted his amazement
and laughed softly. and he looked up
and down and failed to find them.
He gathered up the things with glad
smile, and as no rose to 60 he said
II know not who il was. but an old
man gives them his blessing"
The children watched him a. he
moved away with brighter steps. and
rs he wiped away q tear.
How little it was. yet how much
nearer Heaven he felt for it!--Free

EDITOR News Dear Sir: As there
are various reports Of the great storm in
the papers, I think letter from one Of old
Highlands former citizens would be in Or
der.
Crops are looking well here. Winter
wheat viii be ready to cut in two days.
The storm occurred on the evening Of
the 29th Of Nay. While the wind from
the southeast was strong, 3 heavy cloud
rose in the west, of a fearful dark color.
It was soon discovered that another was
coming from the southwest. This gave
warning to those who had Witnessed such
scenes in other States. It soon proved to
be a regular cyclone from the southwest,
covering from 1 to 2 miles in width and
sucking up almost everything before 1t.
Even stone houses would not stand. It
scattered houses, barns, fences, grain, SC.
for miles, even carried of horses and cattle.
Some we're killed, and some we're carried
high up and set down again without much
harm.
One neighbOr boy, when their house was
taken, was carried so rods and not hurt
He was seen by a neighbor. but he could
not tell which way his home was.
The tornado seems to have started in the
Solomon Valley, but it did It's greatest dam
age in our county, gradually disappear
ing near the northeast corner Of the coun-
ty. Our losses are very great The loss
OF life is less than 6rst reported, being 19
in the county, and perhaps not less than 200
wounded, which is surprisingly few when
looking at its track and seeing houses,
barns and their contents, and farming i'm
Plements, scattered for miles from where
they started.
Among the dead is Elias N Groves.
from Brushcreek township, Of your county.
He served in the Goth o. V. /. and in Capt.
Hills Battery during the war. His house
was blown to pieces. He was found dead
about 10 rods from where the house had
been; the little girl, an only child, near 9
years old, was found about 40 rods away,
with one thigh broken. His wife, who is a
sister Of mine, caught to a post in the
yard and was not seriously hurt.
There we're three Of their near neigh
bOrs killed, all heads of families. It's too
terrible to describe. There was a heavy
rain, and hail fell Immediately after.
We buried the dead on the first Of June.
being Sunday. We took thefOur c0rpses in
in one procession, which was nearly half
mile in length. 1t was truly solemn
scene to US, reminding US that while in the
midst Of Inc we are in death. y

organ of the Maryland Democracy,
referring to the Ohio Democratic
Convention, says; The platform a
dopted yesterday contains a few new
and good points, but the readOptiOn
of the financial planks upon which
the party has stood for the past ten
years, together With the nomination

TO SECURE A HANDSOME INCOME
The Ohio Scale Works oi Cincinnati
have Just patented and are now introduc-
ing to the public a Handsomely finished
Family Scale, an article that has always
been needed in every household, and IN
communication addressed to the publish
ers Of this paper the proprietors ask us to
refer them to some reliable party, to in
troduce it for them 10 the people Of this
county. Il Is very seldom that a new ar
ticle steps so suddenly into universal IA
vOr. HOusekeepers are loud in It's praise.
it Is always ready, there are no weights to
get lost or to he hunted up, is reliable, and
will not get OutOf order. The description
Of them is a handsome base surmOunted
by a column, in which works a spiral
spring so scientifically adjusted as to weigh
anything up to twelve pounds with per-
feet accuracy. On the top Of the column is
the platform on which the articles to be
weighed are placed, and they have an ad-
Unstable indicator so that you can take the
tare Of any vessel you may use In weigh
ing, giving yOu the exact net weight.
HOusekeepers at once see their value in
weighing fruits, sugars and Otner mgredl-
ents used in preserving, cooking, etc, OF
in testing the weights Of purchases from
others.
The Scales are made of Brass, are highly
polished and are finished in a sbillful
manner. They are very attractive and
take the eye Of every one who sees them.
1t seems to us that nearly every family
in this county viii want one, and tits GER
tainly a rare opportunity for some smart
and energetic party to pick up quite a
nice little income during the next few
months. The Company has agents in other
counties who are easily making from $500
to $500 per day selling them, and We
would recommend parties in need Of en-
ployment to drop the OHIO SCALE

Rev. DR.. John Hall warns the young
men of America that they are threatened
by four perils, which are ShallOwness
in business training, dislike Of a trade,
lack of any settled purpose in life, ane
enervating pursuits. Four dangers also
confront the community in general.
These are, in his opinion, a defective
public spirit, weak commercial con-
science, an exaggerated idea Of personal
freedom, and the feebleness Of the pre-
vailing religious life as evinced by enor-
nous church debts, the dearta Of able
ministers and the intellectual gymnas-
les to which some clergymen resort ID
their efforts to obtain hearers,
