"Not so bad rs he is painted " 1t
is the fashion to depreciate Mr.. Hayes.
the President dc f;.cto, but we are re-
mined by the philadelphia Record
that in 1868, when he and Garfield
were each offered u Congressional
nomination, Hayes wrote from the
army to his constituents: 81 decline
the nomination. Any man who would
leave the front at this time to accept
place of safety in the rear ought to
be shot, Gen. Garfield took another
view Of the matter, ana attcrWard
took his seat in Congress, where nc
has remained ever since.

We call the attention of our local
Grccnbackers to the following state
,nent from the New Orleans Democrat,
which is fully substantiated by tel
grams from Maine:
The coalition between the Demo
Gratis land Greenbackcrs in Maine
is now complete. The two parties
have united on a State ticket, on
anembers of Congress and on the ieg!s,
lative ticket, as well as presidential
electors. They have, therefore, not
only an excellent prospect for carry
ing the State and electing majority
of the Congressman, but also of Sc
curing a United States Senator to
succeed Hannibal Hamlin. Hon. Brad
bury is spoken of in that connection

of ten thousand dollars to their cam

thousand dollars for the honor Of be-
ing defeated by the Democrats, the
party can get somebody else. The
assessment will be reduced.

Of Hancock as she prepared to give
the audience the handsome face Of the
General. Instantly there was loud
applause. When she had gone as far
as The eyebrows another round was
given for Hancock, and when she got
as far rs the mouth the audience broke
out again in plaudits in which Mr.
Sherman did not Join. The finishing Of

form en exact estimate to what extent busi-
ness really has increased in this town with,
in The last few years. Il Is true we have
statistics Of cotton shipments, bat that Is sll
and ct the same time inadequate. The best
criterion We think Is the number of new
business houses that have been opened, the
way the town hns generally improved, and
the great demand for houses. With the
Blaa Ridge Railroad completed, there ID no
doubt OF Anderson's assured dsuccess and the
position she will hold as the lesding market

and others OF that class have given SO
much of their time TO discussing the i'm
portant natter Of female education, that
1t would seem os If, were the girls
trained at home in about the following
manner. the wise heads would have
something else to talk and write about.
Teach them thoroughly the following i'm
portant things:
Self-reliance and independence.
How to make bread and cook well.
How to make shirts.
Not to wear false hair.
Not to powder or paint
Not to run up store bills.
To wear thick, warm shoes.
To wash and iron clothes.
To make their own dresses.
That dollar is only hundred cents.
To darn stockings and sew on buttons.
To say no and mean it, or yes and
stick to it.
To wear calico dresses and not fee
ashamed of them.
That good rosy romp Is worth nifty
consumptives.
To regard the morals and not the
money of their beaux.
To have nothing to do with intemper-
ate and dissolute young men.
10 keep house in neat order, with
everything in its place.
That the more one lives within ones
income, the more one will save.
That the farther one gets beyond
ones income, the nearer one gets to the
poor house.
That a good steady mechanic without
cent is worth dozen loafers in shiny
broadcloth.
Accomplishments, such as painting,
music and drawing-if they have the
taste, and YOU have the time and the
money.
That God made them in his image
and no amount of tight lacing will i'm
prove their appearance.
Teach them every day some item Of
dry, hard practical common sense, and
they will yet find time for idealisms.
Give them, of course, a good substan-
tial common school education, but dom
neglect home training

Charl ey Parkhurst.
"Holy sh-hooks ~

WATsoNvILLE, Jan. "A fact was
brought to light here few days since
that is we'll calculated to cause surprise
to all who may learn the circumstances
connected with its revelation. On Sun
day last there died at the Moss ranch,
near this city, person known as Char
ley Parkhurst, aged g., who was well
known TO old residents here as a stage
driver. He was in early days accounted
one of the most expert manipulators CT
the reins who ever sat on the box OF
coach running from Stockton to Mari
posa, from Oakland to San Jose, and
from San Juan to Santa Cruz-when
San Francisco was reached via San Juan.
For fifteen or twenty years he had been
engaged in farming, working IN the
woods, ETC., and it is said that he accu-
mulated several thousand dollars. For
several years past he has not done much,
being greatly troubled with rheuma-
tism, which caused great suffering as
well as considerable deformity. The
immediate cause of his death was can
Ger of the tongue. 1t was discovered
when friendly hands were preparing h m
for his final rest that Charley Parkhurst
was Enthusiastically well-developed
woman. 1t could scarcely be believed
by persons who had known Charley
Parkhurst for quarter of century.
1t is one of the most wonderful OF the
few such cases on record That this
woman, living among men for thirty
years or more, going through all the
dangers and vicissitudes of California
life, should conceal her sex, could hardly
be believed, but it is fact. On the
Great Register of this county Of the
year 1867. appears this entry: "Park-
hurst, Charles Durkee; 55; New Hamp-
shire; farmer; Soquel-where he then
lived. 1t is said by several who knew
her intimately that she came from Prov
idence, r. /. Of course great curiosity
is excited as to the cause that led this
woman to exist so many years in such q
strange guise. There may be q strange
history, that to the novelist would be
source of inspiration, and again she may
have been disgusted with the trammels
surrounding her sex, and concluded to
work ont her fortune in her own way.
More light may be thrown on this won
] derful case. Bee.

The Fig and the Rat.

A pig so fat that it could hardly
move, once loolling indolently in its sly,
saw a poor, half starved rat, that, with
much timid alertness stole from its hid
ing place, and after Selling one of the
many grains of corn that lay scattered
around quickly made his escape with
his prize, and with very much the air of
beggar who had asked for something
to eat, and had then run away, ashamed
to be seen.
"You poor creature grunted the
pig, "what life you lead half starved
and half frozen Behold me now !.
Here | am "a person OF consequence,
carefully fed and attended to, with ev-
cry morning fresh, sweet straw thrown
in TO me to make my bed soft and warm
AS for you, poor creature, it is only Mt
the risk of your life, by constant labor
and struggles with your fellow creatures,
and even beggery, to speak Of nothing
worse, that you can contrive to live at
ALL"
"Please to recollect," said the rat, as
he paused for a moment at the mouth OF
his hole, "when you heap your pity upon
me, that you receive favors and benefits
not on account of the love your master
bears you, nor on account of your own
worthiness, but because Of the use he
intends making of you when he has fat
tened you up to his liking. As for me,
do not live in constant fear Of the
butchers knife, and think it is likely
that shall keep my place in the world,
poor as it is, much longer than you will
keep yours"
