Whistles of All Sorts,

The primary idea of a whistle lies in
the making of column of air to vibrate,
In whatever condition As there is no
lack Of means or methods for doing this,
the Infinite diversity Of the forms Of the
apparatus for producing the vibrations
and the resultant sounds is q matter Of
course. The most general form Is the
human whistle, which one can make
sound-after fashion-without much
preliminary training; but many musicians
have made themselves masters of its In
donations to such degree that, instead
of tho usual inharmonious and unmethod-
heal discords, they can render with it the
most difficult passages of elaborate mu-
steal notes shall not dwell upon the
means that maybe employed to make the
sounds sharper and to modulate their
tones. Every one knows what effects are
produced by inserting the fore and second
fingers 80 as to turn the tongue slightly
back - the column Of air passes over it.
or BY sending the blast over the outside
Of the bent fingers.

Advantages of Audible Laughter.

NAL In existence. Girls giggle, boys te-he,

The Republican party turns to the new South
with wide open arms. It offers loyal assis-
lance in the development of its agriculture, the
opening of it's mines, the building up of its
manufactures. 1t proposes to break down the
barrier of unpleasant memories with the hope
of a new prosperity.
But the Republican party is not left without
great men to place upon its ticket. AS we
gather hera we remember that another great
convention was held in this city in 1860. We
remember how it was inspired with the wis
dom and courage to select that great man of
the people, that Moses who led US through
the parted waters of the sea, past the wilder
ness of battle, over the Jordan of safety into
the promised land.
When Robert Bruce, king Of Scotland. lay
upon his dying bed he requested that his heart
should be taken from his inanimate body and
borne by knightly hands to the Saviors sepul-
cher. After his death, James, Earl Of Doug
lass. undertook the sacred mission, and with
the heart encased in o golden casket set out
upon his pilgrimage to the Holy Land. On
their way thither himself and comrades were
set upon by great host of Moorish warriors.
Though they fought with all the valor of NOR
tai men, they were borne backward by sheer
force of numbers and their overthrow seemed
certain, when Douglass, drawing from his
bosom the priceless casket, cast it far out into
the midst of the oncoming host and cried out,

There will be vigorous protest against

will be assailed for attempting to destroy
the industries and debase the work

veterans of the late war, and his pension
vetoes will furnish text for a lurid

together in peace or war as God
may will. You take the oath of fidelity
and obedience. swear ever to remem-
Der that the eyes of my ancectors look
down upon me from the other world and
that shall hereafter have to render an

party friends, by the men and the sons of the
men with whom it had been his conspicuous
honor to have been associated in the first
opening campaign of 1855.
Fred Douglass then came before the
convention and delivered a short adj
dress, urging the Republicans to make
short work of driving the Democrats Out
of power. He called the Democratic
party the enemy of slaves and appealed to
the Republican party not to forsake the
negro.
The Virginia contested election case
then came up, and hot piece OF "give

between Wise and Malone, until the de-

Boutelle, of Maine, asked whether it
was proposed that If a delegate from any
state was absent any alternate could vote
in his place. If this was so he said it
was inimical to the principle of district
representation.
Hoar, of Massachusetts,, explained and
said alternates could only take the place
of their district delegates.
Root, of Arkansas, moved that the con-
vention decide what delegates may suo-
