WAsHINGToN's VISION.
BY WESLEY BRADSHAW.

Geneva, (ohio), Times.
The last time ever saw Anthony
Sherman was on July 4th, 1859, in
Independence Square. He was then
SO, and becoming very feeble; but
though 80 old, his dimming eye re-
kindled as he looked at Independence
Hall, which he said he had come to
gaze upon once more before he was
gathered home.
"What time is it ?" said he, raising
his trembling eyes to the clock in the
steeple, and endeavoring to shade the
former with trembling hand, "what
time is it? | can't see as we'll as |
used to-"
"Half>past three"
"Come then" he continued, " let us
90 into the Hall, want to tell you an
incident in Washington's life, one which
no one alive knows except myself; and
ifyou live you will see it verified,
Mark me, / am not superStitiOus, but yO,t
,uiU see It verified"
Reaching the visitors room in which
the sacred relics Of our early days are
preserved, We sat down upon one of the
old>fashioned wooden bences, and my
venerable companion related to me the
following singular narrative, which
from the peculiarly of our national
affairs at the present time, / have been
induced to give to the world. l give
1t as nearly as possible in his own
words:
"When the bold action of our Con-
grees, in asserting the independence Of
the Colonies, became known in the
Old World, we were laughed and
scofed at as silly, presumptuous rebels,
whom the British grenadiers would
soon tame into submission; but un'
dauntedly we prepared to make good
what we had said. The keen encounter
came, anu the world knows the result.
1t ie easy and pleasant for those of the
present generation to write of the days
of Seventy.six, but they little know,
neither can they imagine the trials and
suferings of those fearful days. And
there is one thing that | much fear,
and that is, that the american people
do not properly appreciate The boon o.
freedom. Party spirit is yearly becoming
stronger and stronger, and 'OithOut 1t Is
checked, aciU at no distant day undermine
and tumble into ruin the noble structure
Of the Republic. But let me hasten tc
my narrative.
"FrOm the opening of the RevOlu
ton we experienced all phases of for

victorious and another conquered The
darkest period, however, was, | think

A Corner on Pigs.

The other day an old negro with decided
lisp, talking with General McGinnis, asked if he
wasn't a Kentuckian. NO" said the General.
I'm an Ohio man." The negro then asked if
Ohio was a good State for colored man. The
General replied that he didn't think it any better
than Indiana or Illinois. II was thinking of
going on farm" said the old man. II have &
cow and calf and two thows and pigs" Two
thousand pigs!" calculated the General in great
surprise. swell, if were in your place and at
your age wouldn't think of farming. I would
sell the pigs. You'll get enough for them to keep
you comfortable all the rest Of your days"
~ geth you mithunerstud me-" was the
answer. II didn't say two thousand pigs, but
two thows and pigs"
At this explanation the General beat hasty
retreat, followed by the laughter of two or three
bystanders
