Pennsylvania is the native State
and the home of Major-General Win
field s. Hancock. It Is admitted that
he is universally beloved and respect
ed within the limits of his native
State. 1t is we'll known there Is a
widespread State pride in ,Pennsylva-
MIA to have another, President Of the
United States, and Publfc. sentiment Is
overwhelmingly In favor OF Gen. Han
cock being that President. 1t is adj
mitted that the chance OF carrying the
State of Pennsylvania for the Demo-
cratic candidate In November, In the
face of the Philadelphia Radical ring
of "Addition, Division and Silence" /"
is slim indeed. 1t ought to be univer-
sally admitted that that chance
rests on Gen. Hancock being the next
Democratic candidate. That he cam
not get the nomination at Cincinnati
without the individual support ofthe
delegation from his own state, Is a
proposition too plain to require any
demonstration. ~ 81, t..r Tee. .,y

Preachers and Health.

The New York correspondent of the
Troy Times writes: "Our preachers
as profession are very healthy, and it
is for this reason that the death OF
Adams has occasioned such general no.
tice. It is looked on as an unusual
thing for q preacher to be laid up from
work. Life insurance companies al.
ways prefer risks on this class, and per-
hsps their temperate habits have much
to do with their Longevity. Looking at
the profession, the following brief re-
cord may be given: Among the Bap.
lists William r. Williams stands promo
nent. He has been preaching for more
than forty years, and is now seventy-six.
Vermilye, tho senior Reformed Dutch
pastor Is seventy.seven. Fifty-fve years
have elapsed since bis ordination. Tho
senior Tying Is now in his eighty.
year, and It is fifty.nine years since no
entered the ministry. These men be-
long to the retired list. There are,
however, instances Of working clergy
who have reached q mature age. Fl

How q Skillful Swimmer May Easily
he Drowned.

We read frequently of the drowning
of good swimmers, who suddenly sink
in the water without any apparent
cause. The common explanation q
such an accident is that the swimmer j.
seized with cramp; but an English
naval officer offers q different solution
of the phenomenon. He bases bis
theory on his own experience. iiD
ship was lying for a long time OFT Adsa
Harbor, and it was the practice t@
cricketing parties to swim from the
vessel to the shore every evening, hsv'

Worse OF than the Prodigal.

Der of the sanitary police squad found .

if he was i'll. The man pointed to the
old house, cautioned the officer to speak

"I'm the husband of the woman you
see hanging out clothes over there"
"And why are you hiding here?"
"I've been of on spree for whole
week."
"Ah! l see. 1t is the return Of the
prodigal."

The officer slipped around and told
the wife that her husband was hiding in
the alley, and then took position
where be could witness what followed.
He had hardly secured it when the man
came down the alley on gallop, fol-
lowed at . short distance by the wife,
armed with q hoe-handle. There were

SWEET SUMMERS GONE.

THERE'S a purple tint on the woodland leaves
And the winds are up all day;
There's a rustling heard in tho yellow sneaVes
And it seems to sadly say:
'Sweet summers gone away!
In the wrnklcd brook no roses peep;
And the bees no longer stray;
And the butterflies have gone to sleep;
And the locust trills all day.
Sweet summers gone away!
On the browning fields the spider spins
Where the lambs no longer play;
Aud the cricket now his chirp begins;
And the quail is whistliny Kay.
Sweet summers gone away.
There are loving arms for baby dear,
Though the skies are CAill and gray,
And u coy hOme-nest all the year,
And sweet kisses every day,
Though summers gone away.
