A boy who Is polite to his father
and mother is likely to be polite TO
every one else.
A boy lacking pOliteness to his
parents may have the semblancc Of
courtesy in society, but is never
truly polite in spirit, and is ia tan-
ger, as he becomes familiar, of be-
traying his real want Of courtesy.
We are in danger Of living too
much for the outside world, for the
impression we make in society,
covering the good opinion of those
who are ina sense "a part of our
selves, and who will continue to
sustain and be sustained in us, not
withstanding the defects of depOrt-
pertinent and character. We say
to every boy and to every girl, cul-
tivate the art Of courtesy and
propriety at home-.-in the sitting
room and kitchen, as we'll as in the
parlor, and you will be sure in 9TH
places to deport yourselfin becom'
ing and attractive manner,
When one has pleasant smile
and 4 graceful demeanOr, il is "a sat
isfactiOn to know that they are not
put on, but that they belong TO the
character, and are manifest at all
times and under all circumstances.

The election is over, but there are
a few words and thoughts in the
speech delivered by the Hon. Hor-
alto Seymour at Utica pending the
canvass that we desire to print in
our columns. They are as follows /:
In the course of my long political
experience | have seen and felt so
much of the evils which men bring
upon themselves by discords that /
cannot refrain from warning you,
to whom / am under so many and
great obligations, against dissensions
in your ranks. Men are apt to
think that the result of elections
chiefly affect candidates for high
offices. This is ia great error. They
fall upon the mass of the voters in a
ten-fold greater degree than upon
those who are called leading men.
As a rule, these are advanced in
life. In a little while they will
pass away, while personal contro-
versies among the young and active
may live for many years to harm
and embaFaaSS them. 1t may be in
the power of men to crafty some
passing prejudice or interest by de-
feating those of their own political
faith, but it never fails ia the
course of time that things come
back to harm and plague those who
indulge in personal prejudices.
New York is by right, by tradition,
by interest, a Democratic State.
This country, in its better days,
upheld the principles of Jefferson
and Jackson. AS | stand here at
the request of the young men of the
Democratic party in this city, to
speak particularly of cur county
and city tickets, which are made up
OF those who are in the early stages
of life, wish to say to them, as one
who has run most of his course, and
who feels a deep interest In the
welfare Of those who are coming on
the stage of active exertions, that
eXhort them always to keep in
view their duties as citizens, to be-
come intelligent i'm regard to all
matters that concern the welfare of
the American people, and to be
earnest and active in upholding the
side which they shall deem to be in
the right. / do not wish to do iu-
justice to our political opponents.
respect their convictions, but / be-
lieVe that when American citizens
shall study the principles which
give life to our Union and prosper
ity to our States, the Democratic
party will regain the aseendency in
all sections of our common country.

and left some of our folks at home.
Now, as long as it's just simply alb
stract queStiOnS-that is, abstracting
things that belong to other people

to electing somebody TO Office, why
we've kinder got with the minority.

DIAmOND RING.
How Mr.. C. G. Breed Lost and Re
covered a Fine stone,


Some days ago Mr. Gilbert C.
Breed, the very able purchasing
agent of the Louisville and Nash
Vile railroad, was asked by his
daughter for the use of beautiful
diamond ring, presented him a few
months ago as an evidence of the es-
TEEN of a number OF friends. Mr..
Breed told his daughter that the
ring was in certain drawer in his
bedroom, and the young lady went
to seek it, finding, however, that it
was missing. Mr.. and Mrs. Breed
also searched the drawer in ques-
ton, and sure enough the ring was
gone. The husband suspected their
maid servant, but his wife insisted
that the girl, a negress, was honest.
Mr.. Breed called her and said
"Mary, l have left my diamond
ring in the middle bureau drawer
upstairs, while we are taking sup
per wish you would go and get it,"
The maid servant disappeared and
returning in few moments, hand
ed Mr.. Breed his ring, which she
said was found in the identical
place indicated. Now Mr.. Breed
knew that this was false, as he had
searched the drawer carefully and
found no ring, so 1t was all he could
do to avoid discharging the girl, but
his wife insisted that She was hon
est, and he forbore his purpose to
punish her.
Several days ago, his daughter
again asking for the ring, discov-
cred that the setting was considera-
bly, shattered, and so told him, who
sent the ring to Hendricks. 1t was
discovered that the original dia-
mond had been removed, and i'm
stead of a stone worth 1850, a fifty
cent piece of paste was i'm its stead.
Mr.. Kendrick, Jr., remembered
that fine and real stone of about
the same size had been offered for
sale several days before, by negro
girl. Miss Breed acquainted her fa-
ther with this information, and
Capt. Bligh being called in soon
found the real stone, which the ne
gro woman had sold for 90 to "a sec
Ond-hand "shyster."
THE Nashville American, in a
strong article in favor of Bayard,
says:
By eliminating the West the Ohio
election has turned the attention TO
the East. IT has had the effect TO
bring out pronounced opinion in
favor OF Mr.. Bayard-all over New
England throughout the entire
East. The same thing is true Of
the West. Where his naIne has
scarcely been mentioned before, il
has been frequently mentioned
since the Ohio election. This npin.
ion is nowhere more pronounced
] than here" IS

GOdey's Lady's Rock for December
Closes the year 1879 with flying col
Ors. The publishers have more than
fulfilled their promises made in jan
uary, and each number of the year
as it has succeeded has erceeded the
last. In the December number we.
have an exquisite steel plate, from
Darley's original design, suitable to
the season, reminding us to whom
we should render homage at the
cheerful Christmas gatherings. In
addition is a beautiful colOred win
ter scene, and a double page of dain-
ty trides for Christmas presents, at
once beautiful and suggestive. The
Mammoth COlOred Fashion Plate is
very fine, and the costumes of great
taste and beauty. Besides this, are
several pages of fashion patterns of
articles to help a lady in making a
tasteful and becoming toilet. The
pages of literary matter are very
choice-two Christmas tales and pO-
ems, a continuation of the series of
Representative Women" and sew
eral pages of the interesting novel,
GA Rosebud Garden of Girls" The
recipes for Christmas Dinner make
the mouth water, and in every de-
partment is shown the beauty and
finish that characterizes every issue
OF Godey's Lady's Book. The pub
fishers promise a still better book
for 1880. 1t is mystery how they
can make one, but if they say so,
they aciU do it. We will furnish
Godey's Lady's Book and the
CHRONICLE for 1880 for $3.50 on APP
plication at this Office.
