A Stalwart Senator.

Roscoe Conkling indorses Mr.. Platt,
the Senator-elect from New York, as
a man "who never thought it necessa-
ry to apologize for being a Stalwart
Republican That's good enough.
There was once time when it re-
quired as much moral courage for a
man to proclaim himself stalwart
Republican, as it did to call himself
an enemy of slavery in the darkest
days of Democratic ascendency. If
Platt manifested that courage, he is of
the right stamp, and. will make Sen
ator Of whom neither New York nor
the nation need be ashamed. He who
stands fast by the right when those in
high.places are tampering with iniqui-
ty andsWrong, is certain to do his duty
to the people and the country.
1t is a source Of earnest congratula-
tion to all the friends of true Repub-
licanism and honest politics, that the
Empire State Of the Union is to be
represented in the United States Sem
ate by two men, Conkling and Platt,
both of whom are men of command
ing ability and neither of whom ever
bowed the knee to the baal of weak
ness, treachery and sham.-Colatmbus

Hunger Before Grace.

A Western cattle dealer, who rarely
had the privilege Of sitting down to
meat with a family, and had never
been in minister's house in his life,
was not long ago benighted and lost
in his ride across the prairies, and
compelled to ask for lodgings in the
first house he could find. Happily for
him, it proved to be the dwelling of a
good man, parson, who gave him a
cordial welcome, and what was espe-
cially agreeable, told him supper would
soon be ready. The travellers appe-
tite was ravenous, and the moment he
was asked to sit downAe complied,
and without waiting fora second M
vitation he laid hold of what he could
reach.
sStop, STOP said the good man Of
the house; 1--WE are in the habit of
saying something before we eat
This hint to wait till the blessing
was asked, the rough customer did not
understand, but with his mouth full
he muttered:
go ahead, say what you like! you
can't turn my stomach now!'
