Tng Republicans have again started
up their everlasting song that they
"iought the war and saved the Union,
and that Democrats were all Copper
heads aud rebels" OF course no one
believes them. but they keep 1t going
all the same. II the millions Of Demo
Gratis in the North during the war had
armed themselves and commenced TO
fight the Republicans, wouldn't the Re
publicans have had an easy time Of II TO
whip them and the South at the same

A Succession Of Startling Horrors
Planned by Comic Actor.

Once Foote, the English comic actor.
made wager that he would upset the
dignity Of certain head waiter at q
hotel ia Bath, who had the name Of
being the most dignified man in Britain.
Foote went to the hotel with three
friends-an engineer who had lost an
eye. a cavalry officer who had lost an
arm, and an old sea captain who had
lost Q leg. The precious quartette
ensconeed themselves IN the four corners
Of the room and bawled for the waiter,
who came in with more than ordinary
assumption of dignity, as a iacit protest
against their uncremoniOus treatment Of
him. "Waiterf' cried the one-eyed
engineer, come and take off my eye
glass;" adding. as the waiter swelled
with Indignation, ''and while you're
about it, just take out my eye" "Your
eye, sir? ?" echoed the startled dignitary.
"Yes, my eye; don't you understand
Epglishy Look sharpi" Eye glass and
eye came away toge ther, and the waiter
reconnoitered them donbtfully as they
lay in the palm Of his hand, like man
eying watch that has suddenly stopped.
Just then the oDe-armed dragoon shouted
in his turn: "Waiter, take off my glove;
and now that think oi it, take off my
arm" Glove and hand gave way at
first touch and the waiter, appalled, to
see his customers tumbling away like
mosaic puzzle, was turning hastily away
when the one-egged sailor roared:
"Wsiter, pull off my starboard boot.
and you mny as well pull off my leg,
too" The poor waiter shudderiDgly
complied, mentally repeating every
prayer he could think Of. Instantly the
previously loosened straps of the corl:
leg gave way, aud down went the man Of
dignity on his august back with the art.
ficial limb quiveripg in lis clutches.
1t was enough. Forgetting everything
in his agonized longing to escape from
this chamber Of horrors, the i'll starred
waiter, casting terrified glance at the
fragments which strewed the carpet,
sprang toward the door But before he
could reach it, Fuote himself-the length
and hexibility Of whose neck might
have aroused the envy Of an ostrich
twisted his neck right around over his
shoulders, a d called out in o voice
hollow and unearihly enough to frghten
a Bengal tiger: "Waiter, come and take
off my hat, and while you're at it take
off my head" Human nature co ,id
bear no more. The martyred wait,r
gave one yell worthy Of a Cherokee
Indian and made but single bound
from the top OF the stairs to the bottom,
upse!ting not only his dignity but him
self, 50 thoroughly that to the day of his
death he was never quite himself again.

Blaine a Typical Republican,

As intimated by the HERALD the day
nfter his nomination, Blaine is PERSONAL
ly possessed OF many attractive qualities.
Ii it were not that he entertains the
principles of cold and cruel party,
which are antagonistc to the very ex-
istence of the Republic, he would be al
ocrat, himself. We do not say that he is
honest enough TO be Democrat, because
that Arkansas railroad vote and ruling
of lis. when he was in the House, aud
his Credit Mobilier history, are too well
shown up for any one to take much
stock in his honesty. Besides, it is just
little strange how a Congressman ON
$4,000 year, living extensively, can
manage TO gave enough out of his salary
in twenty years to make him million
aire. The ordinary mind cannot readily
comprehend such figuring, but to the av-
erage Republican politician, versed in all
the mysteries of addition, division and
silence" il is the simplest thing imagina.

Blaine is undeniably a good fel.

He is magnetic" a sort of po.

know him, and is consequently
popular with the masses, Especially are
Democrats inclined to say good word
for him, in spite of his shortcomings,
but he is about the last man on earth
they would ever vote for for President,
even il he were honest Democrats
have admired the way in which he has
often squelched the hypoerites and
snifilers in his own party, and has run
counter to the goody-goody Republi
cans generally. But, after all, he has
been their relentless, uncompromising
foe at all times. There has never been
a measure before Congress too corrupt
or too prejud ced or too shamolessly one
sided or partizan for him to favor. In
fact his party could never go far enough
in its excesses TO satisfy him. He has
always seemed intoxicated with enjoy.
ment when engaged in some scheme to
overthrow some sacred right of the peo-
pie. OF all the horrible frauds and
abuses OF the party in power, what sin.
gle one has he ever been known to
condemn? Even Conkling couldn't

German News.

A Michigan fruit-grower has been
testing the insect-destroying propensi-
ties OF the English sparrow, and finds
them of no particular use. He laid out
doors some boards on which were placed
many cocoons of the codling moth, with
wheat screenings scattered about to at
tract the birds. The sparrows came and
greedily devoured the wheat. but paid
no attention to the larva; while the pair
of blue birds as greedily ate the larve
and left the wheat untouched. He
therefore concludes that zone pair of our
own blessed little insectiverous birds is
worth more to the fruit.growers than all
the imported sparrows."
