THE INDEPENDENT FARMER.

Let sailors sing the windy deep,
Let soldiers praise their rarmor;
But in my heart this toast Pll keep,
The Independent Farmer.
When first + no rose in robe of green
Jntolhs its crimson lining,
And round his h"nely pourch is seen
The honeysuckle twining;
When banks of bloom their sweetness
yield
To bees that gather honey,
He drives the team across the field,
Where skies are soft and sunny.
The blackbird clucks behind his plows
The quail pipes loud and clearly;
Ion orchard hides behind it bOughs
The home he loves so dearly.
The gray old barn, whose stores unfold
His ample store in measure.
More rich than heaps of boarded gold.
A precious, blessed treasure;
Eut yondcr on the porch there stands
His wife, the lovely charmrr,
The sweetest rose on all his lands;
The Independent Farmer.
70 him the spring comes dancing day,
70 him the summer bushes.
Tho autumn sHiiics with the mellow ray,
His sleep the winter bushes;
He cares not how the world may move,
No donbts or fears cOnfound him;
He smiles in calm content and love
On children gathered arOr nd him
He trusts ir. God, and loves his wife,
Nor grief nor i'll may harm her,
He's natures nob!eman in life
The Independent Farmer.

NO IL
GEN. GRANT TfLLS WHY He Il
REPUBLICAN.

At length the great Republi-
can sphinx has spoken. He
tells why he is a Republican.
But his speech is a riddle; and
his silence speaks Il stroiigel:
and trucr language than his
stony lips have uttered. Be-
sides having spoken his piece,
he presided over a Republican
meeting at Warren, Ohio, and
falsified almost every utteranc,
he made during his Southern
tour last spring.
| Among the alleged reasons
forhis political faith were: That
the Republican party was a
national party; tn tits aim was,
the greatest good to the great
est number; that it gave assur-
ed protection to life and prop
erty; that in it's hands tho pub
lie credit and the public honor
are safe; that itfosters industry
and education among poor and
rich alike, and maintains abso-
lutte equality before the law.
Divested Of unnecessary YER
biage, these are the reasons
given by Grant for being
Republican, and he enforced
his views by the gratuitous as
sumption that to all these things
the Democratic party is oppos-
ed.
Were weso disposed we could
easily show what q house of
stubble he has built upon the
sand. When the Silences are
invoked they tell quite another
tale. They show that during
the war he was neither Demo-
cratic nor Republican, but sim
ply a soldier who was taken
from the gutter and advanced
beyond his deserts, to the pref
udice Of other and better SOL
diers. When the battles were
won by others he received the
reward. He accepted a nomi-
nation for the presidency from
the Republicans because, I'M
der the pressure Of tyrannic
rule, they had the South solid
in their interest, and could car
ry q majority Of the Northern
Mates. Had the circumstances
been reversed, he would have
accepted aDemocratic nolnina-
ton without question or hesita-
ton.
! These are his primary reasons
for being y Republican. But
after he became fixed in his po-
sition he WAS Republican only
in name. His executive Office
was that of Il military tyrant,
rather than that of a civil mag
istrate, imbned with principles
of republican equality. He from
| the first contaminated his fin
gers with base bribes, because
the patron Of Rings, the protec-
tor OF defaulters, the supporter
of revenue plunderers, the
scheming salary grabber,%: the
base conspirator who wrote his
laws for the South with the
sword and interpreted them
with the bayonet.
If he illustrated Republican
ism, by his example, then Re.
publicanism is a felony and
fraud. 1t drives the voter from
the ballot box, the legislator
from his hall, the judge from
his behch, and sets up in theil
stead the scrvilo creatures O.
corruption whom his military
satraps should select. Yet ht
: prates CT equality, the CREATES
! good to the Grestest number
and equal protection before th'
law.

THE cHowDERs GO ALONG.

Mr.. Chowder, Mrs. Chowdcr and four
little Chnwdcrs went off on the excursion
to Sugar Island yesterday. II had been
the talk Of the family for week. Each
child had been taken into the bath room
and washed, secured and sand papered
down. Each one had received twelve
lectures on the art of behaving himself
or herself after getting aboard the boat.
Zach one had been told about fifty times
what TO reply il old Mrs. Clamshell fel,
gracious enough to ask after their health,
or il that bad Brown boy had one Of his
streaks on and made up faces at them.
Every time the subject came up Mrs.
Chowder called for silence and said:
"Now You children pay strict atten-
tion to what say. You can't have any
ice-crcam or lemonade or peanuts. You
can't run up and down on the boat
You must not ask your father for pennies.
You must not keep talking to me. II
Henry or William asks TO go fishing or
in swimming they will get a whipping.
II Lucy or Jennie sits down on the grass
! shall punish them"
The six sat in solemn row as the
boat started out. Mr.. Chowder had one
eye on his two boys and the other squin,
ed down the river. Mrs. Chowdcr had
one eye on the two girls and the other
flashing at boy who had harvest apples
TO sell, and who was trying 10 get near
them. Chowdcr had his mind made up
that il one Of his attempted to find out
what 4 steamboat was like, or hinted i;
fruits or refreshments, or desired TO
minglc with other boys, he would squclch
him on the spot and Mrs. Chowdcr
WAS fully determined to let her pinchcs
be felt the very instant either of the girls
forgot her dignity and wrinkled her
stifiiy starchcd dress.
Two or three hundred children romp-
cd ovei the island, played tag" pick
cd up pebbles, climbed trees and raced
after grass-hopperS. but Chowier sat on
alog and talked politics Mrs. Chowder
sat on 4 camp stool and talked of the
poor heathen. and the young Chowders
sat on the edge OF plank sea; and kept
their mouth in proper puckcr to reply
''ycs ma am" TO every old grub-hoc who
asked il they were having an awful good
time. When they returned las; evening,
not hat had been lost-not 4 button
gonc-not 4 shoc-s;ring broken-not 1
particle Of starch missing. They had
that same solemn puckcr, and Chowder
and his wife had that same awful parental
dignity. Not one had even the faintesi
trace of smile when newsboy stand
ing At the gang-plank shouted out:

THE WRONG LEO.


The Portland .i.i;fyhscr tells the fol
lowing story: There was an eminent
sergeant -at-law some years ago who had
4 cork leg that was triumph Of artistic
deception. None but his iniimaies knew
for certain which was the real and which
was the sham limb. \ wild young wag
OF the ..uiicr bar" who knew the ser
gcani pretty well. once thought to uiil-
iZe this knowledge OF the sergeant ;
secret To take in green. newly-fledged
young barrisicr. The sergeant was all
dressing special jury At Westminster
in his usual earnest and vehement style.
and the wag whispered TO his neighbor:
.'You see how hot old Buziuz is over his
case now I'll bet you sovereign I'll
run this pin into his leg up TO the head,
and he'll never notice il, he's so absorb
cd in his case. He's most cNiraOr-
dinary man in that way" This WIS
more than tlh~ green horn could swallow.
50 he took the bet. The wag took 4
large pin from his waist coat, and lean
ing forward drove it UP TO the head into
the scrgcani's leg. \ yell that froze
the blood OF all who heard it, ;ha; made
the hair of the jury stand on end and
caused the Judges wig almost 10 fall of.

exclaimed the dismaycd anu conscious
stricken wag, quite regardless of the
pain he had inflicted upon the learned
sergeant.
DO Nor EXAGGERATE.-There are
persons whom YOU can believe. because
YOU know they have the habit OF telling
the truth. They do no; color n story
or enlarge bit of news in order TO make
il sound fine or remarkable.
There are others whom you hardly
know whether 10 believe or not, because
they stretch things 80. \ trifling Incl
dent grows in size but not in quality by
passing through their mouth. They
take small fact. or slender bit Of news,
and pad il with added words, and paint
in with highly colOred adjeciives, until
il is largely unreal, and gives false I'M
preston. And one doesn't like TO lis
ten 20 folks when 80 much must be al
lowed for shrinkage.
Cultivate the habit OF telling the
truth in little things as well Is in grGai
things. Pick your words wisely. and
use only such as rightly mean what YOU
wish to say. Never stretch 4 story to
make il seem bigger or funnier. DO this,
and people will learn TO trust and res
pect you. This will b. better than hav
ing a name for telling wonderful stories,
OF making fooliShly and falsely funnicr

things happening in the world. and they
are most entertaining when told exactly
