Praying to Chance.

A lady who had forsaken her God and
the Bible for the gloom and darkness of
infidelity, was crossing the Atlantic,
and asked sailor, one morning, how
long they should be out.
SIN fourteen days, if it is Gods will,
we shall be in Liverpool" answered the
sailor.
"If it is Gods will !" said the lady /;
"what senseless expression don't you
know that all comes by chance 2"
In few days terrible storm arose,
and the lady stood clinging on the side
of the cabin door in agony of terror,
when the sailor passed her.
"What do you think, " said she, twill
the storm soon be over Y''
"It seems likely to last for some time,
madam"
"Ohl" she cried, "pray that we may
not be lost"
His reply was, Madam, shall 1 pray
to chance?"

A CAMPAIGN INCIDENT.

A CRAzY-LOOKING huckster wag-

occupant of the vehicle was little old

foot on the outside of the wagon. box
Interest In the odd.looking turnout was
greatly increased when the driver rein

COUNTRY PRODUCE
ALSO TUE
POLITICAL ISSUES DIsCU sSED.

This legend soon attracted large
crown, when the little old man stood up
in the crazy wagon and made formal
announcement that he had for sale
nice lot of garden produce such as pump
kins, turnips, cabbages, some chestnuts,
etc II also have" said he, as he lifted
a faded bed-qult from a keg, "a few gall
ions of hard cider, which think is the
best ever brought to yer town.
"What about the political issues ="
yelled man from the curbstone.
"We'll come to that by.and- -by-jes' as
soon as sell some ov this truck out ov
the wagon so as kin have a place to
stand"
The crowd realized that they had at
last struck something in the way of a
political orator, and it was plain that
they meant to encourage him, even be-
fore he had made the suggestion regard
ing business.
The cider was the first thing they
tackled. AS many men as could gather
around the wagon and the cider was
closed out in short order at five cents
per cup.
Drink hearty, gents" the little old
man would say, "this reminds me NV
the hard-clder campaign NV 40, when l
TUX the stump for Old Tippecanoe; an
besides, it's made NV as fine fruit as ever
growed on tree"
''See here tell us about Maine !"
yelled political man, whose thirst was
for political information.
"Don Z fret the cattle,' was the old
mans response.
One man bought all the chestnuts he
had, In order, as he said, to reduce the
stock, and get around to the political
issues.
Pumpkins, squashes, parsnips, etc.,
were purchased rapidly, the old man re-
marking that the drudgery of farm-life
was distasteful to him, and he was only
truly happy when on the stump discuss
ing the great issues before the people.
Scraping under the seat with his feet
he unearthed a gourd, and holding it up,
said:
"Gents, this is the last shot in the
locker, who is the lucky man 7"
Twenty. five or thirty men, apparent
ly, offered to purchase it. The man
who succeeded bowled it down street
with an oath, and said what he wanted
was chin music.
The crowd was breathless with ankle
ty, or would have been had it not been
yelling "speech !" "speech !"
The little old man stood up in the
wagon, took off his hat, and said:
mo occasion for speech now, gents.
Goods are all sold without it. If ye'd
hung fire like expected we would, I'D
harangued ye till sundown. But ye
KEN right up like little men and bought
my last parsnip. That's the way like
to do biz. Thanks, gents"
The party who had been the heaviest
purchaser ran to take the horse by the
bits; but that animal laid his ears back
on his neck, and showed his teeth in
the most vicious fashion.
+" L forgot to tell ye," said the old man
quietly, mot to go near Romeo, fer he''
liable ter swallow soS,e one"
He then dropped down into his sea
and drove off, remarking that when hi
went actively into politics, business II
garden truck would be darn sight dull
er than it appeared to be now.

New YOrk'S New Mayor.

We notice from the New York
papers that Willie Mr.. William j.
Grace, newly-elected mayor of that
city, is likely to prove unpopular
among the politicians and place
seekers, he will show himself en-
tirely capable and worthy Of the
high Office he has been chosen to
ELL. His inaugural message to the
beard of aldermen betrays an init
mate acquaintance with the duties
of the city government, and gives
confidence that the best results
NAV be expected from his admin
istration. The New York Tribune,
the strongest opponent to his can
didacy, and the only paper attack
ing him OF personal grounds dur
ing the late excited campaign.
publishes his message in full, and
states that it was conclusive rvi-
dence since the election of the
wrong done Mr.. Grace in the
charges against him personally,
winch it withdraws. Mr.. Grace
is sound on the public school ques-
ton, which gave rise to so much
anxiety among his opponents, and
his assurances in this regard will
be amply met. On the whole, We
think the people of New York
will have every reason to feel sat
isGed with their choice. and that
Mr.. Grace, to use his own words

National Banking.

Comptroller Knox, in his speech
delivered To the Boston merchants
association November 2Sth, said:
If were asked who first sug-
gested the national baking system,
i should answer unhesiJatiEgly,
Alexander Hamilton; for II was
Hamilton who, before he was APP
pointed secretary OF the treasury,
on being asked by Washington,
what is To be done with our
terrible debit answered: Bank
on it: it is our available capital.
and the best im the world
Now this is very good doctrine
for bankers, but a very expensive
policy for the people. 1t simply
enables the banks To live on the
interest of what the people owe
and what thev owe. They get the
interest on the bonds deposited as
security for the notes ISSUED for
them, and then loan their own
notes and get interest on those
also. If Washington was to ask
the question now what i te be
done with our terrible debit We
should reply convert it into money
and make IL legal tender for all
debts. The legal tender notes
show clearly what the result of the
experiment is: they save the pee
pie from being taxed the amount
of the interest on the debt they
represent, which is A great inn
proyenent on the bank note
system. If the tax is removed
from the banks, as there Is every
reason to believe it will be, Is
there any reason why a 3-per cent.
twenty year bond should not be at
a premium OF $50? On every
100000 the national bankers buy
they can deposit them with the
secretary Of the treasury. and get
back $4,000 bank notes, worth
just as much as the money they
paw for these bonds; so that really
they have oniy $4,000 out, on
which they draw $1,000 year, al
339 per cent. on the amount in.
vested.

Gen. Grant.

This eminent American would
seem TO have filled so many of the
conditions of enduring fame that
he could have retired some time
ago with a reputation which he
could have safety left in the keep
ing of history-that venerable
chromicler whose seat Is only at
the grave. His achievements a.
soldier have removed him as far
from criticism and cavial as Alex
ander Caesar or Napoleon.
His patriotism set every drop of
his blood on fire the moment he
heard that a traitor shot had been
fired INTO the FLAG. The grateful
republic he had done so much To
save elevated him 10 the presi-
dency twice, and gave him the
rank Of General, the two supreme
honors which they had bestowed
on Washington alone. lie aspired
to nothing else, for there was a"
higher honor his country could
give. And vet there were other
and more peculiar honors which
would impart a freshness To- his
wreath. and with which he could be
crowned by 100 hands but his own.
This wreath of true immortelles,
which has been won by only a few
great men (really great, Is in emi-
nent citizenship; useful services

had not had one iay of his own for
fifteen years. He VAS still in the
vigor and freshness of life. and the
terrible exposures, strain and anNi-
cites had not impaired his fine
constitution. or the serenity and
mastership OF his mind. But he
was weary, and he longed for rest.
He had a right to take il. He
