The Greenback party has gradually

Democratic convention, when the com

Fifth district delegate created laugh by
asking what the conference consisted of,
and another delegate warned the conyen-
ton that there was danger OF the Democ-
racy feeling too strong, and that they
must not ignore the assistance Of their
allies. Ii is evident that the Democrats
begin TO feel that they can run things to

Not many years ago an old man of this
city, poor at the time, but previously pros
porous, and even wealthy, yet through all
vicissitudes of fortune universally respect
ed, sat one winter evening by the light of
a tallow candle in a small and somewhat
cheerless room, examining and arranging
the papers contained in his antique desk.
A young friend kept him company. The
old gentleman's old dog was also present,
somnolently extended on the hearth before
the low wood fire. Paper after paper was
drawn from the dusty pigeon holes and
quaint recesses of the desk, generally with
some remark concerning each, and now
and ther some pleasant or pathetic little
story. That night the old man was livin.
his past life over again, all its animation
and color seeming to be restored by the
magical notes and letters.
I'll res one from Joseph jefferson! Dear
old Joe The best friend | ever had, Let

debt to me- know he would have paid it,
but misfortune overpowered him, and then
came death. tie died the very month in
which this letter was writteD-forty-o
years ago" A week later the young man
was again with the old. He presented him
a Ietter--a letter from the grandson of his
ancient friend. warmly expressing grati-
tude and inclosing a check for the sum dus
with interest That amount. carefully em-
ployed rendered my old friend comforta-
bic. at least. till the day he "went home. "
