JUST LIKE THE SMITHS.

One evening, not long ago, says the
Wall street News, q New Yorker was roast
ing his shins before q broad fireplace in .
country tavern in New Hampshire, when q
villager introduced himself as Abraham
Smith, and said that he wanted to make
q few inquiries concerning his son Joab,
who lived in New York, and from whom
he had not heard for two or three years.
Eyes, I know your son WE'LL" replied
the gentleman, thinking to draw the other
but. I'll was in good health when I saw
him last"
"Was he? The old woman has worried
about him a good deal, but l have felt per-
fectly safe. It's just like the Smiths to
have good health. What business is

well. he has tried several things since
knew him. At one time he was . prize
fighter"
"You don't say 80 Actually trained
himself to knock 'em right and left, did
he? Wonder he never wrote me about ii,
for Joab knows what his father has done on
town-meeting days. It's just like the
Smiths ; I never saw one yet who wasn't
on his muscle"
But he changed from that to q preach

"No, I haven't. After being In the
preacher business about six months his
health failed and he opened q saloon"
"He did, ehf By George what versa
tility that boy has. But it's Just like the
Smiths. I never saw one yet who couldn't
turn his hand to anything. How did he
come out?"
"Bad-very bad. Location was poor
and times hard, and he finally came to me
and borrowed fifty dollars and skipped out,
and / haven't seen him since"
"Just like the Smiths for all the world
Say, Mister ! presume Joab told you I'd
pay that money back il he didn't?"
" Yes ; that's what be said"
"That's just like the Smiths again. And
you've come after it r.
YES"
"Ssy, stranger" whispered the villager,
as he leaned forward. There's over q
dozen Smiths in this county. and Il Satan

couldn't rake in a pair Of boot-heels. You
can sue, and levy, and attach, and kick up
a Robbery, but you won't get anything. The
only thing that l have had standing in my
name for the last six months was a cake OF
m~aple-sugar, and we ate the last of that
for supper. It's just like the Smiths to be
sorry you lost fifty dollars, and just like
'em, again, to keep shady until your claim

THE defeat of Garfield in California
and Nevada is attributed to the Morey
letter by the Eastern press. We do not
believe that it changed a vote on this
Coast. If Garfeld's record on the Chi
nese question had not already determined
the peoples minds, why then there could
be no virtue in that letter. Garfeld's
votes in Congress did the business.

Some years ago an article appeared IN
these columns, written by the same hand
that pens this, severely auimadverting
against Col. NJ. N. Stone, of Virginia
City. The article was written under
great excitement, in the heat Of a politi-
cal campaign. and contained things that
should never have been said. The enmity
thus engendered has never been recon-
ciled to this day.
During the recent campaign Colonel
Stone occupied a position as a member OF
the Executive Committee of the party, in
which, had he been less a true Democrat,
he might have seriously damaged the
chances of the writer for an important
political office. Instead of doing this, how
ever, as we are reliably informed, he bent
every energy for Nae success of the entire
Democratic ticket, working as zealously
for our election as though he had been
our best friend, and casting an open,
straight ballot, from top to bottom, on
election day. Under these circumstances,
and in view of the fact that it is IA rare
thing for party fealty to rise above per-
sonal i'll will-patriotism above hatred
we conceive it to be the proper and grace
full thing to do on our part to make due
acknowledgment i'll some marked manner
sc ftuIu.-I C4o-a5. 1,ta.acfa1 natrrpf.
ism and fidelity to the cause of Democ-
racy. Hence this article.
We therefore take pleasure in with
drawing fully and completely all things
hitherto published by us derogatory to
or in any manner rejecting upon Colonel
Stone-personally, politically or other
wise. We have found him to be one of
the truest and most steadfast Democrats
in the State, sinking the deepest personal
feeling for the success OF the party and
we feel that we ought to do no less than
make this public acknowledgment of his
loyalty to principle and devotion to the
Democratic cause. More than this, it
affords us grateful pleasure to sincerely
commend the action of Colonel Stone in
the late canvass to the favorable con-
sideration of our friends and all true
Democrats throughout the State.

BOY SENTENCED TO DEATH.

Myers has been sentenced by Judge Abbot
to be hanged March 10 for the murder OF
his step-mother, Mrs, Mary Hester, Febru.
airy 81, 1871 Myers is not yet twcnty-onc
years old He made a touching speech to
the court, pleading not to have the death
sentence passed, but imprisonment for life,
as he could ultimately be pordoned, as he
was innocent; that one Bowden committed
the murder and would certainly sooner or
later confess it; but if he Myers was SEN
fenced to to hang, the confession might be
made too late to save him. Strong efforts
are being made by citizens for communication
Of his sentence by the governor.

New YORK, Feb. i3.-The Herald this
morning says: 1--WE regret to say that as
yet no returns have been made by large
number OF gentlemen aud firms to whom
the Heralds Irish famine blanks were en-
trusted. In a great many instances we
know these blanks contain the names of
persons who in the aggregate have sub.
scrlbcd a good deal of money aud we are
aware that they are held back in order that
their custodians who are so generously co.
operating with the Herald may be enabled
to make as good showing as possible in
print. Their motive is exceedingly credit
able but we are certain they will not misin-
terpret our meaning when We say that they
are unwittlngly putting back the cause they
at heart so earnestly desire to advance. The
Herald will esteem it great favor on the
part OF these gentlemen if they will make
their returns as early as possible tomorrow
The newspaper editors and other gentlemen
in outside towns and cities who are so nobly
aiding the Herald will also place us under
Obligations if they will forward their sub
scriptions and subscription lists by the
same time. No doubt telegraph companies
will in all cases enable them to transmit
their money without waiting for the slow
process Of the mail"
