THE OLDCHURCH BELL.

J.H.N.
Swings majestic to and fro,
While the echoes come and go
Gladstone story does 1t tell
Day by day the old church bell;
Ding-dong-ding,
Sweet the echoes ring;
Let the solemn music swell,
Loudly ring the old church bell.
Gaily swells its CHEEKY voice,
While, beneath it, hearts rejoice;
Now its changing. far and wide,
Calls the bridegroom and the bride:
Dong-ding-dong,
Hear its happy song;
In those fond hearts what raptures dwell,
While rings the happy old church bell!
Now its tolling, soft and slow,
Calls to hearts bowed down with woe;
Up the aisles, with measured tread,
Move the bearers with the dead:
Toll-toll-tol1,
Sadly the echoes roll
A sadder tale no tongue can tell,
Then rings the mournful old church bell.
Than earthly cares, that 'ronnd me play,
Than earthly joys that soon decay,
This old bell, whene'er 1t rings,
Speaks to me of better things:
Dong-ding-dong,
1 hear its mellow song
Falls on my ear, like some weird spell,
The ringing of the old church bell.
oh, may its ringings ever be
Harbingers of joy to me;
May its music ever fall
Sweetly on the hearts of all!
Ding-dong-ding,
Let the glad echoes ring
Till every human heart shall swell
With joy to hear the old church bell.

CRUMP, the steward Of the White
House, thinks the allowance &C three
thousand dollars, for his attendance
on President Garfield, entirely too
small. His health was somewhat i'm
paired by his close application during
the Presidents illness. That was a
season Of sacrifices, yet it is somewhat
distressing to think how some of the
attendants utterly ruined their health
by their attendance especially was
this so with the doctors. To most of
the attendants, however, the injury
was not permanent.

THERE little Confederate demonstration in
New Orleans last week, at which JEFF. Davis made a
speech. Among other things JEFF. particular to
say that he wanted future generations to look more
favoraby upon the record the rebels with regard
to the treatment of Uuion prisoners during the war
and he hoped that in the future the word 'An-
dersonville" would be stricken from the Northern
vocabulary. There is not the shadow doubt that
Mr. Davis would like to have that word stricken out
Yet that word will be of the first features
the rebel history to attract attention. That simple
word will doubtless follow JEFF. to his grave.

A RESOLUTION was introduced into
the Missouri Legislature endorsing
the action Of Governor Crittenden, in
putting price upon the head of Jesse
James, the bandit and murderer. The
Speaker ruled the resolution out, the
Republicans and Greenbackers ap-
pealed, and the Democrats, being in
the majority, voted solidly to sustain
the Speaker. From all accounts,
Jesse has, in his time, been a very
bright specimen Of a Missouri Demo-
GRAFT.

u '"'''-' MRS. CHARLES LOGAN.
A lady of Ironton informs us that
she makes y lbs. Of butter from one
COW, and has cream on the table three
times day. She sells this butter for
40 cents pound, and has been doing
it right along. So, from Sept. 80, to
April Is, her income from that one
cow has been $7S, besides the milk
and cream for her own use. But this
is blooded cow-the best Jersey in
all this region. She paid S10O for it
a year ago, and since that time, the
net income from the cow, over the
cost of feed and keeping, has been a
little upwards Of a hundred dollars.
Now, who can beat this ?-IrOnton
Register.
May 1, 1880, we bought large
Durham cow from Scott Aleshire.
She had calf a week old. We paid
him $45, and in a few weeks he took
the calf back at &c. We kept an ac-
curate account for 6 months, and will
give the result in dollars, leaving off
the odd cents. We will remark that
she gave 6 gallons of milk per day,

Mr.. NEAL has sent us a copy of a
bill introduced in the House Of Rep
resentatiyes, making an appropriation
to pay the doctors and others who at
tended upon the late President Gar
field. It sets out with an item to pay
DR.. Bliss $25, 900, and the others from
$4,000 on down.
Now we regard this as another out
rage. This DIR. (D Bliss spent over
two months in running a tube from
twelve to fifteen inches through the
body Of the wounded man, every day,
in direction nearly opposite to the
direction Of the ball.
The farmers Of Jackson county are
perhaps no better skilled in anatomy
than men in general; yet we think
there is not one of them who ever cut
up hog or beef, who could not
have managed the Presidents case
with more skill than did this DR.. Bliss.

CHICAGO has grass widow named
Stanton. Chicago also has Clerk
named Moffot. Stanton is old enough
to be Moffot's mother, and has hus-
band living. Yet Moffot was smitten
with her charms, and managed to get
into her room at her clearinghouse.
She ordered him out, when he drew a
small revolver and shot her in the
mouth, knocking out two of her teeth,
but not otherwise injuring her. He
then attempted to blow out his own
brains, by mistake placing the pistol
to his head, where the little bullet
flattened against his skull. Moral:
Young men should not attempt to
shoot themselves through the brains
until they find out where the brains
are located. Mofot chanced to get to
the end where there was no brains.

IT lis said that Harrison cleared,
above all expenses, during his three
months revival in Cincinnati, 81, 800.
1t is also said that Gpiteau now has
$500 in bank, and that he makes as
much as $50 day selling his photo
graphs and autographs.
These two cranks should pool their
issues; but perhaps Guiteau would
object, he being much the smarter
crank Of the two.
