Gen. Buffers Reply.

Il reporter Of the Neacs and Cou-

field, and the following conversation
occurred:
Reporter, Have you anything to
say, General, in reply to the charges
which Col. Cash brings against yeu?
Gen. Butler. No, except to say
that they are purely imaginary. Not
a word of truth in any Of them. Of
course, 1 do not say whether his
charge, that am coward, is true or
not. 1t is never safe to pass judg-

Laughing Off a Duel,

"Speaking of the Cash Shannon
duel said the Eachange fiend, put
ting his feet in the waste basket, GIVE
need a few men like Judge Dooly.
He laughed out of duels with an au-
dacions wit that compelled even. the
admiration of his enemies. You re-
member he said, when they threatened
that if he didn't fight his name would
fill the columns of a newspaper, that
he had rather fill ten newspapers than
one coffin, Once he went on the field
with man who had ST. Vitus' dance.
His opponent was standing at his
post, his whole frame jerking nervous
ly from his mnlady. Dooly, in the
soberest manner, left his post and
cutting forkcd stick, stuck it in the
ground in front of his opponent.
"What docs this mean2' aslscd his
opponent.
"Why, says Dooly, Il want you 10
rest yonr pistol in that fork 30 that
you can steady your aim. If You
shoot at me with that hand shaking
80 you'll pepper me full of holes tho
first fire."

BOYS.

Get hold Of the boys heart. Yon-
der locomotive with its thunder train
comes like a whirlwind down the
track, and regiment OF armed men
might seek to arrest in in vain. It
would crush them and plunge unhced-
ed on. But there is little lever in
its mechanism that, at the pressure Of
a mans hand, will slackcn its speed,
and in moment or two bring it PAN
ting and still, like whipped spaniel,
at your feet. BY the same little lev
er the steamship is guided hither and
yon, upon tho sea, in spite Of adverse
wind or current. That sensitive and
responsive spot by which boys life
is controlled is his heart. With your
grasp gentle and firm on that helm,
you may pilot him whittier you will.
Never doubt that he has q heart.
Bad and willful boys very often have
the tendercst heart hidden away some
where beneath incrustatlons of sin, or
behind barricades Of pride, And it
is your bnsineRs 10 get at that heart,
aeep hold of it by sympathy, cc,,l! con A'-
ing in him, mani(estly working only
for his good, by little Indirect kind
nesses to his mother or sister, or even
his pet dog. See him at his home, or
invite him to yours. Provide him
some little pleasure, set him to some
little service of trust for yon; love
him-love him practically. Any way
and every way rule him through his
heart.-Sunday Shool Times.

The following, which we clip from

the climax: Con Sunday last a. j..
Clinton, colored, of liberty Hill, sent
n letter to Horace White, also color
cd, by his son. The letter was of an
offensive nature, and ended by chal-
longing him to duel with pistols, at
ten PAGES; and said he only wanted
Il chance to put two bullets through
his darned heart. Now, Horace did
not want the bullets put through his
heart in that manner, SO TO prevent it

Garfield on the Road.

Presidential combinations on the
road have hitherto been an unhrokeu
succession Of political disasters, and
General Garfield ahould have studied
their history carefully before starting
out on his present starring tour. 1t
is true, that there was urgent necessi-
ty for general council Of war by tho
Republican chiefs. Chairman Jewell's
flank movement under Gen. Weaver
in Alabama, resulted in 9 most dis
graceful lout, and closed the cam.
paign in the South for the season,

that Gen. Garfield could give galua-s
ble counsel TO the national committee
about carrying the debatable States,r
but the critical nature of the enier- :
9enoy doubtless, made the managers,
feel anxious to have their Presiden-
tial candidate take o full shsrasof in-i !

that may bring irretrievable disaster

Gen. Garfield and his cause if he bad

OF initiating tho many exhibitions OF

That he lies will make to him the,

in the "fetters Of the law" when my

To that end, we trust that every

best policy for US to post.
