Getting Ahead OF a Pied Piper.

Ii.Onuoh ielekihP"'I
Rats and their eccentric freaks play
no uncomfortable part in German leg
endary lore. That their passion for
music will induce them to brave the Ut
most peril we have learned from the
Rat-catcher of Hameln's" quaint mar
rative. Poor Bishop Hatto discovered
to his cost what desperate enterprises
they were capable Of undertaking when
stimulated to strenuous effort by the
promptings of outraged morality and of
an Unborn prediction for episcopal
flesh. Ever since they stormed that
luckess prelate's castle, and picked his
bones in highly memorable manner,
they love to linger in the purieus OF
German bishops palaces, and cathedral
cities are their favorite abodes-at
least, such is the belief in the Catholic
provinces of the Fatherland. In Pader.
born, it seems, they have established
themselves 80 solidly that the munich
pal authorities of that venerable strong
hold of the Church have found it neces-
sary to adopt extreme measures for
their expulsion A short time ago the
burgomaster Herr Frankenberg entered
into contract with the eminent rat
catcher, Baum, by which the latter
bound himself to deliver Paderborn of
its rodent population for the pecuniary
consideration of coo marks Every ia,
cility was given t. hin. by the citizens;
he enjoyed free access alike to cellar
and garrett, crypt and muniment room
and, after fortnight's remorseless cam.
paign, during which thousands of vic.
tins succumbed to his skill, he de-
clared Paderborn to be absolutely rat
less and mouseless. But he had to dc
with burgomaster wilier than any rat
that ever wore whiskers The saga
cious functionary forewith issued pro
clamation exhorting every burgess Of
Paderborn still cOgnizant of the pres
ence of rat or mouse in his dOmicile to-
make declarations thereof at the TOwr
Hall within iour-and-twenty hours
So many citizens appeared at the Rath
haus next morning in response to this
appeal that the Town Council of Pader
born has been celebrating ever since
whether or not Baum's fee shall be paiC
to him, and according to the latest &C
counts, can not come to any decision
upon this knotty point. Meanwhile
Paderborn, if not absolutely ratless,
has got rid of at least 80 per cent. of it,
rats without disbursing a silver.

Mans Opinion.

Woman may laugh at the idea If they
will, but the taste of men in the
matter Of woman's dress is well worth
consulting. They may remember that
all their slufs are devised, and all
the patterns Of those stufIs designed, by
men; that almost all the new fashions
originate with men. Then why not
compromise on the subject, and admit
that men and women need to work to-
gethcr in this as in many other things,
and that each needs the others help il
a good result is TO be Obtained2 The
help OF artists, too, is often of great
value, aud if accepted may lead to i'm
portant revolutions. The colors that
have been 80 fashionable for several
years-the new shades of green, blue,
red, and all the odd intermediate COM
bination-are directly owing to the So
called pre-Raphaelite painters in Eng
land-to them, and to their scholars and
followers, who first had stulis dyed in
colors to suit themselves, then persuaded
their wives and sisters to wear dresses
made of these materials and devised by
themselves, and finally came to control
the manufacture of stufs that would
take the folds they liked. From them
the fashion extended all over the
civilized world, 50 that now there is
scarcely rare and beautiful color
which cannot be secured in woman
dress.

Mr.. WARD, the public is waiting
anxiouSly for your answer to the ques-
tions propounded in the REPUBLICAN, Of
Thursday. 1t will not do to brush them
aside carelessly and say that they exist
only in the imagination of the REPUBLT-
CAN. That has been the only answer
we have been used to getting for long
time when we charged unfairness,
fraud and derilic!ion of duty upon the
Democratic party, but people are wax
ing up to the fact that what the REPUB
IIcAE has bean charging against the
Democracy is really true. We knew
all along when We were fighting the
battle singly and alone, that that time
would come sooner or later, aud We ere
glad that We have been vindicated. Mr..
Ward, if you do not answer these ques-
tons your silence will damage your
reputation, and We are not sure that if
the questions are answered truthful
ly the damage will not be equally as
bad.

GRANT AND SuERMAys eem 10 be thu
leading candidates for the Republican
nomination for the Presidency in the
South, SO far as heard from-Grant first
and Sherman second. Il il reported
that of the ten delegates to the Chicago
Convention, six have been instructed
for Grant and four for Sherman. Gan
eral Grant gets his delegates through a
outburst of admiration for the
man himself, and Sherman gets his
through the influence Of Federal Office
holders in the South, the appointments
Of whom he has in his own hands. The
safest choice between the two would be
the man whom the masses follow.

dred. Instead of decreasing in circula-
tion we have the pleasure of stating
il was never larger than at the present
time. We never run off less than five
thousand Of an edition now and often
as high as FIVE thousand and three
hundred which makes US safe average
circulation of at least fifty-one hun
dred. If any body disputes this fact,
every facility will be offered him for
ascertaining the truth Of what we say.
We attribute our increasing circulation
to the favor shown us for vigorously
the frauds of the Democra tic

The names Of ffty-eight additional
voters were placed upon the assess
ment lists yesterday, by the Levy
Court, very little other business being
done. The court kept in u remarkably
70 ID humor, but did their work slow
and sure. nashville and Hswkins
who are engineering the assessments on
the part of the Republicans are very
careful to make no representations that
are not clearly sustained by facts, and
the members Of the Levy Court having
found that out, treat them with marked
respect, and often ask them for infor-
nation that the applicant himself or
his voucher is unable to furnish
The members recognize the fact that
though many Of the persons applying
to be assessed are black and humble
they have rights that cannot be ignored,
and no oaptious opposition is offered
after rigid examination Of the assess
ments and delinquent lists are made, to
the placing of the names on the lists.
Ten minutes before the hour Of ad-
last evening the names Of
all present entitled, were assessed.
The members Of the court were in a
good humor, Messrs. Saville and Haw-
kins blandly smiled, and the colored
meu arrived at home singing the long
metre doxology. During the four days
Of the present week upon which the
court sat about 225 names have been
placed upon the assessment, demon
'trating the fact that not more than
our hundred additional names can be
.died during the present month which
imits the tins for assessing, unless
here is more expedition used by the
ourt. This being the casa there will
till be left from twelya to fifteen hun
red persons unassess:d in New Castle
