a CHANGES OF NAME. Great Men Who Are Known by Names Not Originally Given Them. I noticed in a recent publication the revival of the old story of the change young Jobn Rowland made in his name and fortune when he substituted his Rowland with Stanley, and dropped John for Hen ry M., being now known to the world us the great African explorer. | This reminds me that suveral of the | great men known to science, litera-| ture, war and art were originally | known by names «almost wholly un- known to the world at large. Henry Wilson, vice president un- der Grant, was christened Henry} Colbath, and was known by that name until after the end of his nine- |, teenth year. By a curious concidence U. S. Grant, who was president at the time Wilson was vice, as above men- tioned, was also a herowith a chang- ed name. Prior to young Grant's | call and see me. store in the city. "r".

U. Grant” would sound odd if written on the pages of history, but, in fact, would be perfectly proper. The great general was christened Hiram Ulysses Grant, and by the name of Hiram, or Hi, was known to all his school fellows. T. H. Harmer, an ex member of congress, is responsible for U. S. Grant, being thrust upon the world. It came about in thig way: When the name of the aspiring young man was sent in as a candidate to West Point, by some oversight on the part of Mr. Harmer it was sent as “U.S.” insteadof “H. U-” Grant. “U. 8.” Grant was appointed. When he graduated in 1848 his commis sion and diploma were both made “ ” of governing they have divided the {ten acres of his corn, and he will! eS nations into two classes, wolves and j take care of the rest himself. sheep.

The way to get money without any loss of peace or self respect is to earn it by toil of brain or sinew, and the funds thus acquired have no gnawing teeth. All other wealth eats like a canker.” The need of the country to day is more real, honest, intelligently direct- ed labor and less legislation relating to trade and money.

Twenty new papers have been started in as many different parts of the state in the last few weeks. These papers nearly all pretend to be in dependent and make excuses on the ground that the farmers need spe cial organs. We have been under the impression all along that Cole man’s Rural World and the St. Louis Journal of Agriculture were devoted exclusively to a disscussion of mat- ters concerning farmers and stock raisers. Both these papers are worthy of support and well worth | on their errors, but reclaim them by enlightening them. If once they be- come inattentiveto their public af- fairs you and I and Congress, and the assemblies, Judges and Govern ors will all become wolves.” From Jefferson's First Annual Message, Dec- ember 8, 1801. “Considering the general tenden- cy to multiply offices and dependen cies, and to increase expense to the ultimate term of burden which the citizen can bear, it behooves us to avail ourselves of every occasion which presents itself of taking off the surcharge, that it never may be seen here that. after leaving to la bor the amallest portion of its earn. ings on which it can subsist, Gov ernment shall itself consume the whole residue of what it was institu- the subscription price to any farta-! ted to guard.” er. But it is different with the local papers which make a pretense of be- ing farmers paper. We ean find ten times as much interesting agricultu- ral matter and valuable suggestions in any one issue of Coleman's Rural World as is contained in twenty lo- | cal papers. This being the case,we are led to believe that most of these | papers have something else in view | besides telling the farmers when to plant pumpkins and how to pro- | mote string beans.
