a Splendid Opportunity for a Lady Of this
CcuLty.

The Queen City Ssspendsr Com
pany, Of Cincinnati, are now man
ufactpring and introducing their new
stocking suspenders and supporters
for ladies and children. They give
to the movements of children while
at play, and DO not bind or iniure
any part of the body; our leading
physicians recommend them, and
are loud in their praise. This man
ufacturing establishment is managed
by ladies, who have made the wants
of ladies and children study, and
they ask us to refer them to some
reliable and energetic lady, to in
troduce them in this county, and we
certainly think that an earnest
solicitation in every household
would meet with ready response,
and that a determined woman could
make handsome salary during the
summer months. We advise some
intelligent lady of this county, who
is in need of employment, to drop
a postal card to the Company, and
mention this paper.

The question of connecting the
railroads al the head of the lake
with the Wisconsin Central at Ash
land is being agitated seriously in
certain quarters, and a move
towards building the link OF seventy
miles may be made sooner than
many anticipate. The country
through which the line would run
presents no unusual engineering diff
tculties, having a level or gently
undulating surface, with but little
rock, and being covered with a fine
growth of pine and hard woods.
Nothing would now do Superior
and Duluth and this whole northern
country SO much good as the con-
struction of this short piece of road.

GONE TO THE CITY.-An aged
correspondent gives the following
"short history" Of the family of one
of his neighbors "He had family
of three boys and three girls-all
are now living and have families.
One of the sons and one Of the
daughters went to Boston to seek
their fortunes when they became of
age, while the others remained and
settled as farmers wives within a
few miles of the paternal roof. In
their younger days the Boston
couple would occasionally visit their
old birth place, and by their fine
clothes and a liberal display of
jswelry, became almost the envy
OF US country boys--wc inferring
that Boston was 8 good place to get
rich speedily. Twenty years have
passed away-the boys and girls
who settled down in Maine have
fine, thrifty farms, well stocked, nice
farm buildings, are ont of debt, en-
JOY all the comforts of life, and, i'll
fact, are what ia known as 'wel-to-
do families. Being in Boston few
months since, [ called to see my old
neighbora. They resided in hired
tenement houses, in the fourth. story,
on a narrow and confined street, and
complain of very dull times, with
but little employment and small
compensation for labor; and they
informed me that were it not for
the assistance received from their
brothers and sisters in the coentry
they could not make living during
the present dull times"
| There is no doubt that some per-
sons from the country may prosper
in the city. But they are not the
class that waste their time in sight
seeing, their health in tight lscing,
and their money in fine clothes and
flash jewelry or in luxurious and
expensive anuSements.
The boy who is vii ing to perform
as hard work and stick to i; az many
hours as he did on the farm, and
who will dress as plainly az he did
in the country, and who i'll the midst
Of a thousand temptations can save
his money as carefully as at home,
may, under favorable circumstances,
prosper in the city, and become in
huential and wealthy.
But if he goes to the city for easy
work, short time, fine clothes and
gay living, he will quite likely find
himself at last where hundreds are
to-day, without home, friend or
3 penny, and only anxious to get a
place to work for bread to keep him
from starving. 'Blessed is the man
who stays where he ii"

Incipient Rebellion.

To the Editor of the National ReOuJHcdn:
STR have read with care your editorials
on the Revolutionary" acts of the Southern
members Of Congress, and can say amen to the
sentiments aud facts, as far as they go. Per-
haps you will allow me space to show that the
record of the past session is mcroly rcpeti-
ton Of the scenes enacted just before the open
ing of the late war. Then we were told that
the fact of the election Of President from the
North would be prima fdciecG jcNi. The threat
was uttered everywhere openly in the streets,
theatres, hotels, aud in the corridors, If not in
the Halls, of Congress- We all know the re-
suit. Not only our vast debt reminds us of
the terrible results of such unprinCipled at
tcmpts to force the North to bay as mudsills to
the supposed superior wisdom of the South,
hut the hundreds of thousands of graves, both
North and South, appear to us rs horrid
nightmare from which we would gladly escape
but cannot. Is the threatening attitude Of the
South any less patent to the average citizen to-
day than it was then? TO be sure, they have
not dared yet to say they will fight unless the
President yields to their impertinent demands
but they think they can force His EXCellency
to accept their insolence and comply with their
wicked requirements by threats This time
they have openly said on the floor of both
Houses that they will not pass the usual ap-
preparation bills until tho President and Re-
publicans yield. Let me assure them they
have got no imbecile Miss Nancy" in the
White House now. President Hayes will give
tho South and North both what he thinks is
right aud just; but let either try to coerce him
and firmly believe they would find him as firm
as the old exponent Of Democracy, Andrew jack
son, when the South Carolinians 50 far forgot
| themselves rs to threaten him. That this i;
| the opinion of thousands of loyal men | am
| firmly convinced. Cursed be the hand which
is again raised in strife against this good Gov
ernment but ten times accursed would DO he
who should yield to the insolent demands of &
party of fraud, whose record shows the blood
of so many thousands AS the result of its un.
holy practices. Let another war como, and
there will be none left to pardon or pension
| among tho lealers Of the AIlraY. NIATOR.

THE OFFICES or THE SENATE.

As the Democrats are eagerly hunting
after the long list of the offices in the
United States Senate, perhaps it would be
rs well to look into the matter little fur
ther and publish little more information
for their benefit.
Referring TO the journal of the Senate
for the first session Of the Thirty-third Con-
grcss, under date of December %, 1858,
will be found the following:
Mr.. MASON submitted the following resolu.
tion, which was considered by unanimous con.
sent and agreed to-
"RcsOlred, That a select committee be ap-
pointed to take into consideration the several
resolutions and orders of the Senate, providing
for the appointment and prescribing the duties
of its officers 10 report rules aud regulations
fixing the number of such officers and other
subordinatcs, classifying them, fixing their
compensation, prescribing the mode of an.
pOintment to and dismissal from office, aud
etIecting such organization generally as better
to insure their responsibility aud efficiency
the committee to consist of three members, 10
be appointed by the chair"
Under date of December % we find, on
motion of Mr., MASON
Ordered, That tho select committee to re-
port rules ana regulations IN relation 10 the
appointment, compensation, aud number oil
the officers and other employees Of the Senate
authorized by the resolution of yesterday con
sist Of five members.
The President pro tempore appointed Mr.
! MASON, Mr.. CAss, Mr.. CLAYTON Mr., BAY,
! ARD, aud Mr. PEARCE the committee.
Under date Of July 10, 1854, we find:
Mr.. MASON, from the select committee ap
pointed by q resolution Of the Senate to report
/ rules and regulations respecting the number o
officers and others employed by the Senate

We will now turn to the report of tn,

make q few extracts therelrom;

ommendaton Of the Sorgeant.at-Arm3 that tho
officers in the employ Of the Senate should be

respective positions so long as they continue
faithful in tho discharge Of their duties.
While, therefore, they recommend, as in the
office of the Secretary of tho Senate, that the
appointment Of his subordinates and the power
Of dismissal should remain with those officers
respectively who must be responsible for all the
service committed to their charge, vet they
further recommend that their subordinate Off
GERS, during the session of the Senate, shall be
dismissed only by the Secretary of the Senate
and dSergeant-at- Arms, respectively for reasons
to be stated In writing; and such dismissal to
be approved by the President of the Senate.
In the recess of the Senate such dismissals,
with the reasons therefor, to be reported to tho
President Of the Senate, in writing, on the first
day of the next meeting of the Senate there
after and then in like manner to be subject to
his approval.
Referring again to the journal of the SEN
ate, under date of July II, 1854, we find
that the resolutions offered by the commit
tee were agreed to; and among the resolu-
tions we find the following;
ReSolued, That the several officers and Others
in the departments of the Secretary of tho SEN
ate and Of tho Sergeant-at Arms shall be ap-
pointed and removed from Office by those off
GERS respectively, as heretofore; but when
made during the session Of the Senate any such
iShio'al w po hiSb dppIoNCu Wy bhc lcoluOh'
OF the Senate, on reasons to 10 assigned there
for, in writing, by the officer making the re-
moyal and when in the recess such reasons
in writing to be laid before tho President oil
| the Senate, OH tho first day Of the succeeding
session, aud to be approved or disapproved by
| him.
That resolution was drawn up by a Dem.
ocrotic committee and adopted by Demo-
cratic Senate in days of yore, when thC
Democratic party was full of wisdom. viii
the Democrats now coming into power abide
by it or attempt to override it? Severa
Democratic Senators have stated that they
were opposed to any removal of competent
and faithful clerks. If they are sincere il
this, all they have to do when their con
stituents come boring them for places is t
call their attention to the above resolutions
shrug their shoulders, and say: "You se'
how it is. can do nothing for YOU"

THE BUREAU OE ESGRAyISG AND
PRINTING.


Last week we took occasion to speak of
the persistent attacks that had been made
upon the Government Printing! Office, and
to show that the affairs of that Office were
ably and honestly conducted. Now we
propose TO say few words in regard to the
Bureau Of Engraving land Printing. This
Bureau was established TO protect the Gov
ernment by having the sealing Of its securi-
ties done in the Treasury Department; but
il was soon found by Secretary CHASE that
the bank-note companies had him COM
plctely at their mercy in tho matter Of
charging for the engraving and printing of
the United States securities, aud he de-
termned to see if the entire work of en-
grazing and printing could not be done by
the Government itself. From the small he
ginning of two or three GngraYcrs and few
plate-printers, the Bureau has grown until it
is now the most perfect establishment of its
kind in this country, and probably in the
world. The banll-note companies soon per-
ceived that this Bureau was n formidable
rival, and they have used their utmost en-
deayoTs to crush it out Of existence. Nearly
every Congress has been beseiged with the
representatives of these companies, who
have charged all sorts of crimes
and misdemeanOrs upon the Tespec-
| tive officers of the Bureau, and many
| Congressional committees have investigated
its affairs Notwithstanding all these in
vestigations the Bureau still lived, and APP
preparations for its support were annually
made, and whenever it entered into compe-
| titon with these bauk-note companies il
always showed that it could do the work
more cheaply and fully as good, if not bet
ter, than they.
One of the first acts of Secretary SHER-
MAN, after he assumed charge of the Treas
ury Department, was TO appoint commit
tee of gentlemen in the Department to make
a thorough investigation of this Bureau and
report what reforms in its management
seemed to them necessary. lie had known
of the working of the Bureau and the at,
tempts Of the banlt-note companies to in
lure it while he was chairman of the Senat,

securities could and should be done by TN
Government more economically and Will
