SALT can be manufactured even in
Kentucky at q cents per bushel, and
could, therefore, be sold at 5 cts. bushel
and leave a handsome profit to the
manufacturer. But this is not done
because there is duty Of IS per cent.
on foreign salt to protect our home
manufacturers. Jim Mckenzie intro
duced bill i'm Congress to put salt on
the free list, and intends, like he did for
free Yuinine, to fight till he succeeds,
for this alone he deserves the support of
the people for a reelection. Let him

Ina speech in the Cooper institute
Mr.. Abram s. Hewitt said of Garfield's
Chinese-cheap-labor letter:
'Some people may be inclined to pro-
nounce it "A forgery. have seen it. /
am familiar with Gen. Garfield's sigma
ture. l have compared it with his let
tiers in my possession, and / have no
doubt it is genuine. If it be forgery
it is the work of a consummate artist.
If l thought after examination that
there was the slightest doubt Of its au-
thenticity, should not refer to it. But
1t accords with the course Gen. Garfield
also took on questions affecting the in
terests of employers"

In 1872, Indiana went Democratic in
October by about 1000 majority, and in
November went Republican by 10000.
In 1850 it went Republican by about
5000, and in November it will go DEM
ocratic by a good majority. We will
reverse the order of reversal of 1872
this fall. Hancock, however, will be
elected without the aid of Indiana. He
will get lss electoral votes in the South
ern States, IS in New York, i'm New
Jersey and 6 In Connecticut, which
elects him and three to spare.

TIE claim has been made by the Re-

Poor Cook! He arranged with his
party, In this and other counties to sell
out in August and get pay back for him
in Republican votes i'm November. The
bargain and sale was entered into in
this county, and the Greenbackers sold
themselves, principles and all, by vot-
ing for ID. l.. Smith, a hard-money Re-
publican, for Sheriff. Now, that the
ides of November are approaching. the
Republicans have called convention
and nominated candidate of their own
for Congress, and have said by their
act, that we have gulled the Greenback-
ers into voting with us, and helped us to
elect our man, but we will not vote for
their fiat money imitation candidate for
Congress. The Greenbackers are around
trading. They seem to care nothing for
the financial views entertained by the
candidate they vote for. They have
twice, In this county, formed fusions
with the National Bank Republican
party, which has brought into existence
every measure they complain of. Is
that the way to get relief? We think
not. They denounce both the old
parties, but never miss nm opportunity to
form coalition with one to beat the
other. .tle n

The Rock River Illinois Methodist
Conference was In session when a dis
patch was received announcing the Re
publican triumph in Indiana. The
Chicago Times has the following to say:
The reading was followed by loud and
prolonged applause, and when the APP
plause had died down, some one struck
up the MISUNDERSTANDING, and the
whole conference joined with JUNCTION
in singing:
"Praise God, from whom all blessing fiow."
DIR. Hitchcock got the floor and said
that this demonstration would have
been deeply regretted by him were the
circumstances only ordinary, but under
the present circumstances he believed
that the dispatch from Indiana was an
assurance that the country had been
saved from civil war, and, though he
knew the way the conference received
the news would be widely criticised,
he felt that, considering the emergency,
the ministers were justified in lining
up their hearts in that magnificent
doxology. Applause and cries OF
The Apologize remarks of Rev. DIR.
Hitchcock are ss amusing rs character
istic. II that gentleman was merely
airing his fancy in saying he believed
the dispatch from Indiana was an as
surance that the country had been
saved from a civil war; he should
henceforth sympathize strongly with
those less eminent sinners who indulge
in the Justification of facts. II he does
really believe that unmitigated non-
sense, we are moved to inquire how u
man 90 intensely ignorant Of the affairs
of this world can have such exhaustive
knowledge Of the affairs of the next.

Keen Ahead.

One OF the grand secrets OF success
in life is to keep ahead in all ways
possible. If you once fall behind, it
may be very difficult to make up the
Roadway which is lost. One who be.
gins with putting aside some part of
his earnings, however small, and
keeps it tor a number of years, is
likely to become rich before he dies.
One who inherits property, and goes
on year by year spending a little
more than his income, will become
poor if he lives long enough. Living
beyond their means has brought mul.
titudes of persons to ruin in our gen
Grafton. 1t is the cause of nine
tenths Of all the defalcatlops which
have disgraced the age. A man who
is in debt walks in the midst of periIs.
1t cannot but impair mans seltre-
spect to know that he is living at the
expense OF others. 1t is also very de-
sirable that we should keep some
what ahead in our work. This may
not be possible in all cases, but there
are certain classes of people who can
choose their time for the work which
they are called to 40, and amongst
them there are some vino invariably
put off the task assigned them SO
long AS possible, and then come to
It's performance hurried, perplexed,
anxious-in such a state OF mind as
certainly units them Tor doing their
best work. Get ahead and keep
ahead, and your success is tolerably
sure,

Attention. Mothers.

No hired help can ever make up
for the lack of knowledge and quail
fications in the mistress of the house
hold. A mother who has allowed
her daughter to grow up uninstructed
in the mysteries of housekeeping, has
been guilty OF an unkindDess toward
her own child which will be life-last-
ing in its unhappy influences. Such
young women do no not always suit
their husbands, who expect something
more than doll for wife. There
can be no harm in learning the art of
good housekeeping, if you are never
called upon to take turn at the
wheel. Remember this, girls. Moth
ers should bring up their children
with knowledge of work, as it may
be OF use to them some day.

COurtShip and Marriage.

The woman that is happy wife
need not long to be courted again.
There is no need-she is won nor
are many compliments necessary.
Mutual devotion in an Der appreci-
ated compliment. Yet still, you who
are married do not quite forget those
old days which drew you to each
other. Be lovers always. Many
people are, and those who love are
safe. The meeting and parting kiss,
the kind look, the appreciative word !;
never forget these. So surely as you
do, worse will follow; for the hus-
baud and wife who have no tender
sentiment toward each other will be
come foes.

From TIE London Baptist.
What we want is stronger men
not men of more delicate habits, or

of clear head, and large heart, and
strong will-men of 1esistless logic
and towering imagination and If to
all these be added the ready hand
and the vigorous arm, SO much the
better. We want men with the
wrestling thews which throw the

TIRED OF LIVING.

GAS we wander midst the shadows,
Deepening on the hills of life,
Listening ever to the tumult,
OF mans hearts and hands at strife,
We grow weary of the conflict,
Long for rest beneath the sod,
Long to taste the sweet millennium
In the paradise of God.
Tired of livingl oh thou pilgrim,
Hast thou nothing then to do.
If the world seems false and hollow,
Can'st thou not at least be true?
Courage-there's some silver lining
Bursting through the gloomy past,
Earth has always some sweet hearth song
Tender as the dews that fall.
Weary? Sad heart never weary
Till the blissful goal is won;
Pause not, drop no heavy burden,
Till the setting of the sun,
Over all thine hours of toiling.
God is dropping blessings down,
Thou wilt change thy cross at even,
For faaeless, starry crown.
