SOLDIER BIRDS. DS.-ThpSe are the StOTkS
Of India, where they are much valued.
and in some parts OF that country they
are kept in large focilS, Ike the ostrich
i'm South Africa, for the sake OF their
beautiful feathers.
During the wet season. or in times Of
iRundation. these birds do good service
to the natives and owners OF property
fer they consume vast. numbers of Iep-
tiles. which are driven from their hauntS
10y the rising water. Rats, toadS, liz
ards, snakes, all disappear down their
immense GeakS at a surprising rate.
In some towns it is unlawful to hurt
them, as they consume The refuse which
is thrown into the streets. which in such
a hot country might produce disease.
They win sometimes hurry in through
an open window, and swallow a slice or
two of bread and butter, or anything
else that may happen to be left uuguard-
ed on table ; while even puppy or
kitten playing by the waySde, has ere
now furnished them with dainty lunch
One traveller llmeu,Cd the loss Of
bis milk-wl.ite Persian kitten, which
was seized hy one OF these feathered war
riOrS, as il lay basking on the sunny YER
auda Of his house, and swallowed in an
/ instant.
They are commonly known 10y the
name of '.Adjutant birds, " because they
are mostly found near to the barracks or
an encampment Of soldiers, where they
go in search of the refuse and waste
pieces Of food.

3 IN Adiutant which had been set upon
by a flock of crows, for a long time bore
their tormeIting without much disturb
ing himself. At last his patience gave
way. he made sudden dash, caught
one of the impertinent fellows in his
. huge beak. and in an instant swallowed
him whole. while all lis brother crows
set up tremendous cawing. as if to eX-
press their horror at his fate.

ORIGIN, OF THE BEACH-Ihe peach

5 Unqualified Endorsement of HI. Views.

1t is pleasant and refreshing TO read or
hear the views of Western Democrat like
those recently expressed by this gentleman
In late interview at Louisville he said :
''The Democratic party united, could DEFY
all opposition, just as the people OF the
United States united, could defy any nation
in the world" On this point there is
entire agreement North and South, East and
West. We next look to see whas basis
be suggests for union. There,
his conception. with a platform favor
ing the liberty and fraternity of the people,
and the equality and rights of the States, in
opposition to the corrupt and daI arous
concentration OF power in the general Gov
eminent, plainly tending 10 an empire /
should not doubt the success of the party"
On this point assuredly the entire
Democratic party is unit. What
then stands in the way? This he seems
TO have well considered, and the only really
distractiDg question is in his opinion, that
on finance. But he's quite as fortunate and
wise on this point as on the others. He
says, for myself, / want our money to rank
with the same standard recognized by all the
great commercial nations OF tie world ]
want no deprecated or unredeemable paper
forced upon our people. | want the labor
real dollars that win purchase Just as much
of the necessariss of life as toe dollars paid
10 bondholders or ofieshOldels, and with -
great purchasing power as the best money in
the best markets Of the world. Honesty, in
my judgment, is the best policy in finance
and politics, 81 well as in morals generally.
and If pohtioitns would take half as much
trouble TO instruct and enlighten the ms ssss
that they do 10 take advantage of their sup
posed prejudlces II would be far better"
If We could nave the ear OF every Demo-
crst in the country We should be glad to
know If any thing better than this has been
uttered, and who can honestly dissent from
it2 Mr.. EnglIshi is a resident of Indiana, one
OF the 81 Ates holding a very important rela-
ton TO success next year, If not the key TO
it. He is an eminent private citizen, havir Q
no political aspirations. He is actuated By
no motive but that which h1ws from an In
teiligent appreciation of the situation. His
heart has always been loyal to the country
and the Democratic party. His judgment is
based on large and successful experience as
q public man.

iher, has only two dollars in its treasury,
owes $3.50, and, as the novelty Of the thing
has worn of. does not know where to look
for contributions Several hundred are now
in ST. Louis, on their way to Kansas; as
many more n Washington. on their way to
Indiana-and all alike destitute. How they
can avail themselves Of the cheap lands Of
the West when they have not money TO
buy bTeed-We leave the Republican
TO determine. The prospect Of bet
ter wages is equally ridiculous.
The labor supply in the West,
in all departments, is amply sufficient for
present and prospective demands; and the
colored emigration, should 1t continue and
increase, can only have the effect OF reducing
wsges-and by such reduction the blacks
must necessarily suffer more than the whites.
To compare the former with Immigrants
from Europe proves either the strongest
prejudice or the deepest ignorance. Aside
from the habits OF industry and economy
which the majority of European immigrants
possess, three-fourths, perhaps nlne-tenths,
bring cash enough to give them little start
in their new home. They require no re-
lief societies, and no hat is passed round for
their benefit. Very few Of them are paupers
in any sense of the word, while the larger
proportion OF the emigrants from the South
are paupers in every sense, and likely to re-
main so. The fact of the matter is that the
exodus is mostly made upof the thriftless and
worthless class of negroes, who would turn
the .rden of Eden into poor house if the
primeval Paradise were given them free of
cost. An industrious and economical col
ored man can do far better in the South
than in the North, and when the thrifty
blacks in Georgia pay taxes on 100000 of
property and hold over 100000 acres of land
in their own hight no further argument is
nee ded in that direction"

To the Editor of the Sentinel:
SRI want to express TO you my thanks
for your editorial 10 to-dsy's Sentinel In de-
Tense of soldiers pensions. Four years ago
was at political meeting when this ques.
ton was ssked Hon. Frank Lsnders, VINO
was then a candidate:
Are you in favor OF pensions to the Grip
pied ana diseased soldiers OF the Govern
ment in the late war;
Quicker than lash he answered:
II don't think our Republic should main
tain much, il any, of standing army, but
do think il shoIid depend upon volun-
destroy. them IN preserving il cit
il should pension every one OF them and
care for their needy families, and then il
would never have to draft men when il
needed soldiers To those who do not take
the personsl risks of war and have Govern
ment preserved TO them, this payment
would be lieht task
I indoIse the idea Of Mr.. Landers. But
there seems to be an impression growing that
