JUSTICE FIELD.


The Hon, Stephen j. Field is becom'
ing one of the prominent possibilities
of q Democratic Presidential nomina-
ton. lie is discussed US one of the prob,
ables by the knowing ones, and If IL
should happen that the mantle Of the
Moses, who came so near the promised
Presidential land at the last election,
should fall upon the shoulders Of Mr.,
Justice Field, we may regard his nom
ination certain, and his election proba-
BILE. If the contest should come be-
tween General Grant and Judge Field,
the issue would be clear.cut and well
defined. Judge Field was loyal man
during tho war (as only an appoint
ment of President Lincoln could have
BEEN, and represents the highest order
of legal and judicial talent, as General
Grant represents the highest order OF
military capacity aud genius General
Grant will embody the idea OF central
ization and military power, and Judge
Field will embody the idea of State
sovereignty and the majesty OF the
civil law. General Grant will reflect
the glory OF Agustus, while Justice
Field will stand as q representative OF
that constitutional principle that de-
clares the ocivil' to be superior to the
military" power The one will carry
with him INTO the campaign the en-
blems of peace-the pen, the gown, the
civic wreath, generosity to the South
forgetiulness Of the war; the other,
the sword, the glittering uniform, the
laurel crown, the bloody shirt. The
one will be new man, taken from
peaceful pursuits, asking for no gifts
the other hero demanding his rights.
The one seeking first term the other
a third. The one maintaining an
honored political and as yet inviolate
tradition the other casting before him
the threatening menace OF dynasty.
As neither of those distinguished gen.
tlemen may be nominated, we will con-
tinue to indulge ourselves in thinking
that we will do as we please until a
real issue is presented to us for our de-
cision.-.San Francisco (Cat) Argondm.

Father, Step in ali Your Tracks.

One winters morning, after 4 snow
storm a father took his hat for walk
to attend to some farm affairs requir,
ing attention. As he started, his lit
tie boy Of fi3e also snatched his hat and
followed his father with mock dignity
an and assumed buSincssIike air
When they reached the dor the gentle
man noticed that no track or pathway
had been made in the SNOW, and he
hesitatcd about letting his boy follow
him. But the soft, Heccy snow looked
so tempting, so pearly white, that he
concluded to allow the child to walk
after him. He took short strides
through the untrodden snow, when
suddenly remembering his little boy he
paused, looked back for him and ex.
claimed:
"Well, my son, don't you find it
hard work to walk in the deep snow p
go, no" said the boy, I'm coming,
for father, [ step in all yonr tracks"
True enough, the dear child was
planting his tiny feet just where the
parents foot had trodden. The child's

fiected that thus would his child keep
pace with him, and follow his tracks
through life.
He was not friend to jesus, not u
man of prayer, and not christian
and well might he pause and tremble
as he thought of his child, ever striving
to "step in all his tracks," onward
through Iife's myterious mazes and
myths, toward eternity! That little
boys reply brought that strong stub
born hearted man to think, when even
the preached word Of God had made
no impression upon him.-Finally he
repented, sought and found peace in
believing in Christ. We believe he is
now making such tracks through life
that at some day that son may be
proud to say, father, 1 step in all your
tracks.-Evangelical.

DON'T Sell the Old Farm.

There is a constant buying and sell
ling Of fams going on from year to
year in our country. This restlessness
on the part Of the farmer, and this de
sire to change 4 present location for
another one, hundreds of miles off, is
so frequently witnessed III our day
that we cease to wonder ut it. In the
time of our forcfathers, when q man
was settled on farm, he commonly
continued on it through life, and then
left it for his son. In times gone by,
the same farm was occupied by the
grandfather, and so on by the son and
grandson. Then the good old home
stead was reverenced and the Occupan-
cy oft was esteemed a great privilege.
There was Il satisfaction felt by the
successor that his predecessor was his
relativa, cultivated the same fields,
wandered by the same brooks, ira
versed the same hills, and ate of the fruit
of the same orchard. Then there was
a home feeling home associations, and
home attachments. Now the farmer
looks more to his pecunIary gains, and
when offered a large price for his laud,
hesitates not to sell. He quits his
beautiful home, his well-cultivated
acres, emigrates to the far West, and
commences a life of hardship that he
never dreamed of. It can safely be
said that where one man succeeds in
this undertaking many fail. If he
eDIId only sell his new farm, how
g adly he would HE back to the old
h ,mo, now occupied by strangers, and
tie enclosure, which contains the
graves of his kindred going to ruin.
With the advent of fall, many will
di pose Of their farms and remove to 4
fat-off country to undergo privations
and troubles incideut upon establish
in a home in a new country. Our
advice is to remaiu where you are. If
you are comfortbly off, be contented
to remain so. Do not exchange a
certainty for an uncertainty, unless
powerful reasons are brought to bear
upon you to seek a new settlement in a
distant region. Stick to the old farm,
for it has never failed you in ths time
| of need,

well, he said, having been a room
mate at college with hiln-Princeton
college, I think-years ago. You
know how it IS when two old cronies
meet after lapse Of years; first they
don't remember one another, then they
slap each other on the back and say /;
You look younger than forty years
ago.
" Anybody could tell from snch a
meeting that Mr. Randolph would not
let them off that night. No. he said,
we're going to have little party to-
night, and while you and sit on the
porch discussing some very excellent
Madeira, which, by-the-by, was i'm
ported by my grandfather, the young
man can have a chance to compare
some Southern beauty with that of the
North, and / thank ours will pass
muster. In the meanwhile, if not two
tired, perhaps you would not object to
a short ramble over my grounds.
"WeH the party was a great success,
I've understood the ladies looked
well and all seemed to be having
good time. After one of the dances
Capt. Beamish (for he was one Of the
Northern men) was talking to group
of ladies about the changess since the
war. The White he said, was then
a cavalry barracks! and then the peo-
pie are so different Then he told
about a lady slapping him in the face
with a dish-clout-he could not re
member her name. All admitted him
to have been badly treated, all but
the handsomest lady in the room, Miss
Tildford. who said: 1t just served
you right Capt. Beamish was so
much incensed at his treatment that
the next day he called ON his old foe,
offered himself, was accepted and mar
ried, all in two weeks.

here major; what do you think of it :"

Long Engagements.


Sunny South.
A st. Louis young woman enters
into some interesting statistical and
matrimonial conjectures. She figures
out that she knows perhaps one hun
dred young men, in round numbers.
Of these she thinks she knows about
thirty intimately, and Of these thirty
there are not more than four whom
she would consent to marry for love or
money on the spur of the moment.
1t may not be a pleasant way of put
ting it but what she says is that, tax
ing one hundred young men as they
come and go only one out of every
twenty-five can be set down as un-
Objectionable and able to make living
for himself and wife.
The St. Louis young lady goes on to
advise her sisterhoOd as sugely as
though she spoke from the pinnacle of
experience. She tells them :'Now
that you are being courted, you think,
of course, it is all very well, and it
will be nicer when you get married.
But it wont. He thinks he's @, ius to
keep on this high pitch of love ali the
time. But he won't. He doesn't
knowhims eff and you don't know him.
It can't last. 1t must cool down.
Whea he sees you as many times a
day as he wants to, and may be more
wien he sees your head done up every
morning regularly in curl papers and
the bloom is ali off the rye; when your
homo contains n good deal of wash
tub, cradle and cook stove, he won't
stand in frontof the hoifse. for one hour
out in the cold, watching your light
in your window. He'll be thinking
rather of getting out of the house.
Young woman, protract this courtship
as long as you can. Let well enough
alone. A courtship in hand is worth
two marriages in the bush. Don't mar
ry till Christmas after next.
