"Thc Children of Despair"

1t has long been mootcd point
whether single or married men make the
best soldiers.
Some maintain that tho lack of q wife
and family tends to mako u man moro
reckless of his life-thcrcforc good
soldier.
Others say that tho married man is al
most veteran when he enters the ranks,
being Injured to combat-therefore q
good soldier.
In the recent Tunisian campaign a
Colonel was questioned on this point.
"Both are right" said he. "Iook
yonder--do you see that battalion of
happy, dovil-may- care fellows They
are all single men, and they would take
their lives in their hands But look
again-do you see those taciturn, SOM
bre, gloomy-looling mon They arc all
married, and in hand-to-hand fight
they are torrors."
"What is tho name of the battalion ?"
asked the inquirer.
''They are called" said the Colonel,
gravely, "The Children of Despair"

never produce good fruit.

.He LEADS US ON.

He leads LIB on,
BY paths we did not know:
Upward He leads US, though our steps be slow,
Though oft we faint and falter by the way,
Though storms and darkness oft obscure the day,
Yet when the clouds are gone
We know He leads US OH.
He leads us ON
Through all the unquict years;
Past all our dream-and hopes and doubts and
fears,
He guides our steps, Through oil our tangled
maze
or sin, OF sorrow, and Oerol0udcd days,
We know His will Is dOnc;-A
And still lie leads us on.
And he, at last,
After the weary strife,
After the restless fever we call life,
After the drearneBs, the aching pain,
The many struggles which have proved in vain,
After our tolls are past
win give us rest at last

A Bon Tire Gnt Of Insurance POlicie.

Bon Tire Gut OF Insurance Policies.
Thomas Heydt, itch Bcrks county
tavernkccper who had paid large assess-
ments on graveyard life insurance policies,
organized q meeting Of his neiShbors at
his tavern to burn the pesky things on
Saturday last. Although it was generally
understood that the ceremonies would not
take place until the afternoon, people COM
menced arriving early in the morning, and
by noon quite q number had already as
sembled. At two o'clock in the afternoon
a delegation of farmers who had as.
scmbled at Hufi"s church arrived, headed
by the Union corEct band, OF
that place The band wagon was drawn
by four black horses elegantly caparison-
ed, followed by string of vehicles. At
four o'clock the ceremonies properly COM
mcnccA. Previous to this time IN cxpe-
rience meeting was organized IN a large
hall of the hotel, where persons represent
ing $500, 900 insurance related their expo
rience with the Shylock agents. There
were poor people present who had bOr-
rowed money to make their pay
ments until all their substance had been
expended and they foInd themselves re-
duccd to misery.

speeches were made. Then the policies
were collected. They were of suflicien!
number to fill busEcl basket. They
were tied to the end Of a long pole and q
procession was formed and proceeded
through the village with band of music
at the head.
Upon the return to the hotel the pro
cession halted in the middle of the square
The policies were saturated with coal Oil
and the pole to which they were fixed was
planted in the middle of the square. At :
word from the president Of the meeting :
torch was applied to the heap by q young
lady, aud what had represented 0,0OO
upon the face, but, in fact, was wortl
little more than waste paper, was reduced
to mass of ashes. The band played :
lively air. and Mr.. Thomas IIeydt, whose
policies represented $4,000, started :
dance around the pole, in which a nun
Der Of his ncighbors joined, after th'
fashion of an Indian pole dance. Afte
more music by the band the party returned
tu the hotel where there was genera
jollilication. la the evening there was al
old fashioned Dcrks county frolic, il
which the lads and lasscs for miles arOunt
joined, and dancing was kept up unit

The Fight In the Senate.

After the close Of the Gazette
report of the proceedings OF the
Senate yesterday.Mr. Maxey said
that he was troubled in spirit, 1t
had everywhere been beaten into
the ears Of the people Of the North
man, woman, and child-that
the country was in danger of being
placed under the dominion Of con-
federate brigadires. Now he saw
the whole republican party take in
to fellowship and brotherhood con-
fsdsrste brigadier, who announced
himself democrat. and who had
exclaimed that he had no apology
to make or excuse to offer for the
course which he had pursued as a
democrat. And yet this confsder-
re democratic brigadier, in the
presence OF the Senate and Of the
whole people, was surrounded, an
ovation given him, and the right
hand OF fellowship extended by his
republican colleagues. He (Mr.
Maxey) could not understand it.
lie could not see why confederate
brigsdier should be blessed on one
side and cursed on the other. An
other thing troubled him. The
Senate was called upon to reorgan-
ize its officers. One Of the nom
nations made was the nomination

thor and finisher of that clause of
the constitutional amendment which
provided the validity Of the public
debt should never be questioned.
Did that party mean to say that
that clause applied to the national
debt, but shat a State might repu.
date as much as it pleased +? The
Senator from Virginia (Mr. Mahone)
had said, 81 am a readjusier. Do
you know what a resdjusier is ?"
He (Mr. Maxey), knew what read
justment meant. 1t meant that
the Senate was to DO readjusted in
all its officers; that the republican
party readjusted itself under the
banner of the confederate brigaiier,
who claimed that he had never re
pented. Laughter. Politics made
strange bedfellows, but lie trusted
that lie would never be called to
lie down On such bed as that He
referred to George. Gorham, the
candidate for secretary, as what in
Texas would be called pitching

Of the republican party whenever
he pleased. Why had he been ee-
lecled ? The papers had stated
that the Senator from Virginia
would vote for him. That was an
other portion Of tie readjustment
Pitching mustangs were to be
taken into the readjustment, togeth-
er with democrats who did not re-

In His Flesh for seventeen
Years.

The Richmond (Va.) WAig says:
.'Atthe battle of " hiie's Tavern.
in 1868, Mr.. Robert Priddy, =
gentlemen now living in Manchas-
ter, was shot in the left leg, just
above the knee. The ball psnetra-
led some distance in the flesh and
las never been extracted. MIR.
Priddy has since suffered very
much from his wound, and for the
past three weeks has been quite
unwelI. Last tuesday, while dress
ing the wound,he discovered piece
o. the pant-loons, about the size
of fve-cent piece, which he wore
during the fight, imbedded in his
hesh. The ball forced it into the
leg; after much difficulty the cloth
WAS taken out, and Mr.. Priddy at
last accounts was much better. 1t
had a fresh appearances, and though
having been imbedded in human
flesh for more than seventeen years,
looked as ii it had but recently beer
cut out of pair Ofnew pantslOon'.
Gen. J. R. Chamblis and Mr.
Priddy were near each other in the
fight and were shot about the same
time, the former being killed"

THE Readjusters have Issued another
address 10 their followers. 1t is signed
by William Malone, Chairman. Int
public generally feel little interest IN 1t,
as they know the party that boosted OIL
It's great strength is simply an annex
unable to accomplish anything without
the support and assistance OF the ht-
publlcans. The battle this TALL will be
between the Democrats and Repuol :
cans. Should the Republicans see pro-
per 10 fight under the name Of Readjus-
:ers, it will not strengthen Them. They
may receive a few recruits lem The
columns OF the 81 900 faithful,
but in changing names they will lose as
many. Malone cannot lead democrs-
TIC read into the republican camp
even II he continue to declare himself
a democrat.

The Sum And Substance Of 1t

The plain truth is that Mr.. Ma
hone was elected to the Senate by
Democrats and as . Democrat, and
never protested 10 be anything else
until this debate. 1t is true that
be seeded and received some Rs
publican votes but these were CIV
en- him for a price, which was paid
and that bargain was closed. His
faction or the party Endorsed The
nomination Of Gen. Hancock, and
put before the people list Of cleo
tors pledged to vote for him. 1t is
not so long since these very news
papers and Senators would have
resented as slanderous the insinua-
ton that they had any utilization
with Mr.. Malone or he with them
and would have used language as
strong as that employe in this de-
bhe by Senator Hill and other
Seutherners. II is true that Mr..
Hill, with his unhappy record in
the secession business, should not
have put himself forward in the
matter; but the plea YOU'RE anoth.
or" is Of no force out OF a boys
play ground. AS regards Mr.
Davis, of Illinois, that retort is not
even true. Mr. Davis was elected
under circumstances which left him
free to vote with either party, as he
pleased. He has not. like Mr..
Malone, deliberately betrayed a
political trxst.- Wash. Post.
