There are number Of us creep
Into this world to eat and sleep;
And know no reason why we're born,
But only to consume the corn,
Deveur the cattle, fowl and fish
And leave behind an empty dish.
Ravens and crows might fill their place
And swallow corn and csrcasses,
Toen If their tombstone when they die,
Bent taught to hatter and TO lie,
There's nothing better will be said
Than that they've eat up all their bread
Drunk up their drink AID gone to bed

A Cclporieur's Death and Fortune.

In the year 1S49 Rev. Giles, wife and
daughter resided in Setauket, Long
Island. On the 28th of September, in
that year, the husband and father left
home by stage for Stony Point, Long
Island Sound, five miles distant, intend
ing to return by water with sail boat,
and has never since been seen by his
family. Many years passed, but Mr..
Giles was never heard from, and it was
at last supposed that he had been
drowned. The fact that the sail boat had
been found capsized led to this belief. Ac-
cepting this as true, Mrs. Giles became
the wife of the late David f. Lyon, of
Schenectady. On Tuesday, Nov. 9th, a
man known as the Rev. John Edward
Giles died of acute apopiexy at Niska-
yuma Centre, Schenectady county. Upon
his person was found neNrly $4,000 in
government bonds and bank notes. He
was slightly deranged, and for years has
followed the occupation of colporteur.
He was always reticent as to his family
relations, saying he "did not like to
speak of them, although he admitted no
had wife and child living, The body
was taken to Schenectady and deposited
in the vault temporarily, aud finally
Mrs. Lyons and daughter, whose name
is Giles, learned Of the circumstances.
They finally viewed the remains, and
fully recognized the body us that of the
long lost husband and father.

A Duel on Horseback.

The Earl of Glencairn challenged
Lieutenant. General Sir George Munro
for grossly opprobrious language used
by him toward the Highland troops, as
being mo other than pack of thieves
and robbers" They met in a field neal
Dornock. "by gray daylight" They
were both well mounted on horseback
each of them were to have one pistol,
after disch Arging of which they were to
fight with broad-swords The pistols
were fred without doing hurt. They
then engaged with their swords,
and after q few passes, my Lord
had the good fortune to give Sir
George sore stroke upon his bri-
dle-hand. whereupon Sir George cried
cut that he was not able to command his
horse; "and hope" says he, you will
fight me on foot"
"Ye CARL says my Lord, II will let
you know that / am match for you
either on foot or horseback.
Whereupon they both alighted, and at
the first bout my Lord gave him sore
stroke on the brow, about an inch above
his eyes, which bled so much that he
could not Sec His Lordship was going
to thrust him through the body, but
John White, his man, pushed up his
sword, and said,
"You have enough of him, my Lord. y
His Lordship, in passion, gave John
u stroke over the shoulders, and then
took his horse and came to his quarters.
Munro and his brother went to head
quarters, but with much ado, for the
bleeding at head and hand"
Their only attendants as seconds We're
Lord Glencairn's trumpeter and valet
his man John above mentioned-and

younger brother of Sir George. Notes

gratefully, "you have saved me from
committing great crime. l came out
here to kill myself with that pistol that
you have seen me throw away; and but
for the intervention, the tears in your
gentle eyes, and the hopeful courage in
your voice, would have done it. l will
tell you now-what ali the world will
know tomorrow am ruined man.
But will not die like coward; L will
live and face the music, as they say.
Good dbye, you wise little woman. You
have saved life-more, perhaps-you
have saved an immmortal soul this
morning simply by being the brave, con-
tented, hopeful being that you are.
Goodbye goodbye"
He wrung her hand hard enough to
bring the tears in her eyes, and turned
away, while Louisa went home rather
dizzy, her heart in whirl, and ALTO
gether too much amazed by the scene
just ended to think much about her own
share of it.
When the state of Mr.. Glover's money
affairs became public there was the
usual nine dsys' wonder. He yielded
everything to his creditors, and found
that they were more nearly satisfied than
he had hoped for; they even left him
little house which was once rented ut a
low rate to Louisa Clare's mother, and
which Louisa, in her widest dreams OF
future grandeur, had once or twice
wished some day might become hers.
Beyond that he had absolutely nothing;
but he was still an able man. He had
failed honorably, and people were willing
to trust him. And after it was all over
he went one day to see Louisa and told
her that he found she was right; his
state Of miLd was far from desperate.
In fact, he was almost happy.
After that he went to see tho little
school teacher quite often-indeed so
often that he seriously interfered with
her duties; and when she came to know
him quite well she used to tell him so,
with the sauciest toss of her head, and a
faint blush in her pink cheeks.
81 can't help it, dear, said Mr.. Clio
ver-he often called her so, for he was
many years older than Louisa-she was
such child-like little creature. You
are my counselor-my comforter-my
all in the world. More than wealth, OF
houses, or lands and though it looks as
if was going to be rich man some
time again, Louisa, 1t will be nothing to
me without the wisest little woman in
the world to show me what to do with
my money, and the best way to make it
real source of happiness to myself and
Others"
SO it came to pass that Louisa said.
Eyes being much entreated; and she
went to live in the house she mad
vaguely dreamed of years before.

A Nice, Light, Toast Lunch.

1t often happens that aftera late heavy
dinner, or when arriving home late in
the evening, or when one is an invalid or
dyspeptic, and especially when trouble
some tooth or other mouth ailment pre-
vents proper mastication of harder food +,
one wants light, easily digested and
easily masticated dish of lunch. Well
cooked oat meal, the grains nearly whole
and not "all in mush," is quite good
but is not always accessible, and is not
liked by all. Latterly we have found
the following very good, especially for
late supper or lunch, eaten only an hour
or two before retiring: Toast some
slices of bread pretty well,
scraping off any blackened, charred
portion; lay the slices on a plate,
preferably soup-plate, and pour on
cold milk enough to wet it through, and
leave half an inch or SO in depth Of milk
in the plate. Good milk; little extra
cream. in it is all the better, and very
trihe of salt improves it Tor our taste.
Put over the toast thus prepared an in
verted large earthen bowl, or tin basin
large enough to cover it, and set down
upon the plate all round Put this in
warm, not very hot, stove oven, two,
three or more hours in advance. The
milk will cook and evaporate, and its
substance be condensed in the toast,
while the cover will keep the toast moist.
1t is then very good, and eats well with
out butter, though u little may be used
if desired. - American Agriculturist.

Gilhooly lives down on Galveston
avenue, not far from milkman. Yes
terday he met the milkmGn, and taking
him off to one side asked him seriously:
Wasn't there fire in your barn early
yesterday? / had a great notion to rush
over to your assistance?" "Why, there
wasn't no fire about the barn" said the
milkman, his eyes sticking out like door
knobs; "what made you think so?''
Nothing, except | saw yon pump two
buckets of water right quick and rush
into the stable with them where you
milk your cows"

THE REPUBLICANS ratified the nomiDa-
tons of the National Republican Con-
vention last night in the Lincoln Club
room, with a pleasant spirit of unanim-
ity. 1t plainly told that satisfaction has
been given to the party in general. and
confirmed the impression heretofore ex.
istilg, that, while Er. Blaine, General
Grant or Mr.. Sherman might have been
to certain degree the candidate of q
faction, General James A. Garfield is
the candidate of the whole Republican
party and will receive the support of
the masses. But it did more than con-
firm the belief that the Presidential
nominee was satisfaotory-it showed
that the nomination of Chester A.
Arthur for the Vice Presidency. when
understood. will not meet with
a word of dissent among the voters of
the party. The Republicans are in ear
nest, they are going into the Presiden-
tial contest Of 1880 with all the vigor
and determination of former years, and,
if last nights meeting may be taken as
an evidence, they will make things par
ticularly interesting even in the little
State of Delaware oppressed and man
acled as she is by unfair assessment
laws.

The Best NOmIn atoms that Could
be Made.

Dc mnuVs
While the nomination of Genera
Garfield by the Republicans may no
create the same amount of enthusiasm
that the nomination OF either Blaine o,
Grant would have done, it everywhere
commands the most profound respect,
and from his friends and foes alike
comes the acknowledgment that the
honor thrust upon him sprang from an
unsought recognition Of his virtues ard
his deservings. The nomination Of
General Grant would have been re-
ceived with thunders Of acclanation by
his friends, especially by those who
glory in him as their old commander,
but there would have been drawback
by hundreds and thousands of Repub-
licans who were not opposed to Gen.
eral Grant personally, but who were
opposed to a third term principle.
Should Blaine have been nominated
the popular outbreak amongst his
friends would simply have been IN
paralleled, but even with him there
were many who had from the heat Of
the preliminary contest learned to be
dissatisfied and would have withheld
their whole support. Edmunds the ablest
and most intellectual of all brought for
wardas candidates lacked the magnetism
that inspires party with enthusiasm
and which carries it through to vic
tory, though there is not Republican
in the patton who probably would not
have given him his vote. These are
little things to be Looked at in cam
paign but they all have their infu.
ences more or less. But in the nomi-
nation of General Garfield all these
have been avoided. He has no enc
mics to punish ncr friends to reward.
He unites the qualities of a brave
soldier, distinguished statesman and
a biameless citizen aud may be consid-
cred as high type of the representa-
tive American, whose leadership all
men may safely follow with tie firm
conviction that his life Ct personal
integrity and his familiar acquaintance
with public affairs will ins ure the dis
charge Of every dutys entrusted to him |
with certain freedom from the short |
comings of negligence or the plumbers
of ignorance. There is msgne tism in |
the name Of James A. Garfield for Pres.
ldent that carries with it powerful
influence and from which the mass of
the people cannot divorce themselves
The Republican ticket, take it in al |
Its bearir gs could n be excelled in
every thing which MAKES ticket pop
alar and the same time gives it tone
and character. The platform of princi-
pies upon which the party stands is as
unobjectionable as the candidates, but
he men who do the work 10 q cam
paign might as well understand now
hat the campaign CT 1850 will not
be made in rose garden. Its dura-
Ii on will not be mark ed by cloudless
skies and made pleasant by winds of
unvarying gentleness. Nor will it be
10 long and leisurely as to afford time
% ambitious persons to prosecute their
OWN quarrels at the expense Of their
party. Every Republican should en-
lesvor to put away all bitterness and
personal animosities and make prepar-
alton for warm and aggressive war
fare.

The Republican Candidate for wee
President.

Jn0 HepnDA1 cSu NHuuANasc AVE-
President.
There is 3 general disposition rot
only on the part of the Democrats al
mort unanimously bu. on the part OF
many Re- ublicans to condemn General
Chester A. Arthur, the Republican can
didate for Vic, President, simply be-
cause President Hayes removed him
from The Office of collector CT the Port
OF New York Two years ago. This con-
domination is made without thought OF
the causes h!ch led to the dismissal OF
Mr.. Arthur. Had he been guilty OF
malfeaa ance in Office, Of collecting lille
gal duties, or collecting no duties at
all; had he sold out appointments and
put the proceeds in his pocket, or in
short had he been guilty Of any act
dercgatory TO the high position which
he held as tho trusted agent of the gov
eminent, there might have been some
excuse for this cutlery against him.
What was he guilty Of and what was
the cause of his removal from Office ?
Simply because he did not agree with
President Hayes in his civil service
ideas and declined to be governed by
them SO tar as the management of the
New York custom house was concern
ed. This was all and nothing more.
The civil service reform movement at
the best was always considered a poll
cy of doubtful expediency and derived
it's support from the Democrats to whom
the mcst advantages would accrue and
who if in power would totally disregard
it. General Arthur declined removing
from Office thattheir places
might be filed with Democrats. On
this question he stood out against the
President and hence his removal had
to follow. 1t is admitted that he is
8 trong candidate in New York made so
principally by what was considered the
harsh treatment of the President. New
York is where the Republican ticket
needs Strengthening and if Chester A.
Arthur is the man who. can do that;
be is the man for the position on the
ticket for which he has been nomina-
ed. His scholarly attainnents and
personal magnetism are supplemented
~ an earnest devotion to the princi.
oles of the Republican party, while his
skill and popularity as local leader
will add largely to the probability Of
counting the vote of New York in that
the addition of which is to Sc
.ure the election of the Republican
icket in November.
