Twenty-one years ago I atood among a Dyspepsia ] Ague, Fever, And Bilio Brain & Nerve FORCE REVIVERS. | Great 'Health ESTORERS vast crowd in one of the public squares of a great Eastern city. Bands were playing, national colors were flying, and from various stands speakers were em- ploying the arts of oratory to stimulat popular enthusiasm. At one of these s gray-haired, sweet-voiced orator, great alike in war, in law and in politics, ar rested the attention of all who came within reach of his clear tones and m netic eyo. “They tell us,” he said, “that the proservation of our Union will ocost treasurce; well, wo have it. That it will cost blood; well”—and here he dropped his voice and bowed his head “we have that, too.” But a few weeks passed away and the orator of that ocea sion, Baker of Oregon, had yiolded his own blood at Balls Bluff, one of the first of the Martyrs to the cause to which he had 80 solemnly consecrated himself. In the crowd that listened to him on that April afternoon wana boy of only thirteen years. The nervous eloquence of the splendid old gray haired orator and watriof so excited His' patriotlo on thusiasm that from that hour he too gave himself up to tho service of his country. Refused by recruiting sergeants, rejocted by mustering officers,it was many months before he reached the goal of his ambi- tion—the uniform of a private soldier Nor was it until he had smuggled himself through to the front and served without onlistment for a long time, that at last, just before the close of the war, he was pormitted to sign the muster rolls and wield the arms of a soldier. I recall him as 1 saw him the firat night he went on picket duty. [ can seo now, after all thede long years, his sparkling oye, his ruddy cheek, his tawny curls, = How elated he was at the trust reposed in him! How his brave young heart throbbed with ambition. But at midnight there was & llru‘;ping shot or two, then a scat- tering volloy, and the boyish soldier's watch was ended forever. 1 looked into his face by a lantern's light, and the sparkling eye had become dimmad, the ruddy cheek was pale, and the curls were dabbled in bluod. And 8o old man and young boy, the rich and the poor, the city clerk and the farm laborer, men of all classes and con- ditions, consecrated themselves to the task of perpetuating what their fathecs had constructed.

And that they ceased to fight when the war was over gives them as just claim to the gratitude of their country- men as that they took up arms when fighting began, But, my comrades, if we demand no special meet of praise from our country for the performance of a plain duty,there are yet obligations resting upon ourselves toward each other, and those of our com- panions who have gone before us, which we shall never lnfi to recognize.

I know that there are those who see, or affect to see, in this warmth of friend- ship, in this strength of comradeshi some vague danger, some chance military parf some prejudi upon our peaceful institutions. t sure- ly they who trusted us during four years of war, who have suffered no_ great dam- age from us during soven- teen following years of peace, may bear with our harm: less friondships during the few years we have vet left to indulge them. And even if there were danger in thus indulying a warmth of love for the com- panions of the best years of our lives, it would be a danger “without a remedy. For “the thoughts of youth,” says the bard just dead, “‘are long, long thoughts,” It is not possible for us at this day and at our age to give up our faith in, and our love for, our old associates of the field. And not to the living only are our af- fectionate recollections eonfined, This day of every year, big with the promcse of the future, rich with the hope of bounteous harvests, is by common con- sent sacred to the memory of the dead. Their narrow houses, where they rest in heace, wakened by no bugle call, alarmed by no musket shot, are around us on every side. And how fast they spread! A fow short days, of comradss of the old, old time, and ours will be among them. Fower and fower, as the years roll on, will be the trembling hands that will scattor the fragrance of the spring; fainter and fainter will grow the voicos that will speak of us, until, at last, eternal silonce and peace shall brood over the groat army whose volleys onco shook a continent. But then, as a type and an emblem of the work that was done and the results achieved by the brave dead, Nature will do for us what we now do for them.

Lol Tammany Looses a Vote, New York Journal, A short, slim woman, with a pair of black eyes,accompanied by an exceedingly stout woman in widow’s weeds, mounted the stand in the Jefferson Market Police Court, ina mournful procession.

Jacobs Oil, the great pain.cure, it is unequaled as remedial substance.” | — Gentlemen's Styles. There seems 1o be Jittle doubt but that simplicity, if not severity, of costume will continue to characterize men's attire this winter. The English fashion, which, by the way, is a very sensible one, of wearing cont and vest to correspond and trowsers of a different material, will be in vogue A coat and vest always outlasts one pair of pantaloons, often two or three pairs, 8o that this fashion assists economy. However, there should be but little dif. forence between either color or material of the upper and lower garments. Strong contrasts in this particular are objection- able, There is almost as much choice in goods for gentlomen’s as for ladies’ woar this fall, but, as a rule, diagonal cloths and plain fine or almost imperceptibly mixed tweeds will be favored as suitings, together will frieczes and small checked, striped, or spotted English goods for trousers. Some assert that the fashions govern- ing mon's attiro are so arbitrary that no room is left to them for the exercise of individual taste. This is a mistake, Men may not have so many opportuni- ties as ladies for displaying their own taste, because their styles, even in such matters as cufls, collars, and neckties, being much more pronounced, are moro difficult to depart from. Still there aro some matters whorein a man may, if ho choose, indulge his own fancy and judg- ment. The cravat, though limited to some ox- tent every season by prevailing stylo, can be varied as to color and design to the wearer. The ‘*‘all round” collar is said to be the most fashionable shape of the present season, but a man who looks his worst in one should have the hardi- hood to wear an open broken, standing or turn-down collar. Quiet, lowtoned silk checks, or small figures, make by far the most desirable tie, aside from plain black. and the loose sailor knot is worn just now by most fashionable men, but here. too self taste should govern the wearer, and the style of knot be made to depend less on fashion than becoming- ness. There is one crowning grace, however, to a man's attire that is wholly under his own control, and woe be he who does not understand how to profit by this license. Most men know the advantage a becom- ing headcovering gives to the tout ensemble of his appearance, as well as the woman does, and the fashion of men’s hats is not premeditated or predes- tinated. No one knows the exact curl or turn a brim is to have even a fow hours beforoe its manufacture. The ‘fin isher” is the arbiter of its fate, and a man can wait patiently overy season till hats are put on exhibition, and then, from an almost unlimited assortment, choose that which pleaseth him, un- h}fiured by anything but his own sweet will, MEN'S SHOES are also to be plain and simple. Patent leather vamps with kid or silk uppers ap- pear among the most dressy. These are medium pointed, and all grades of shoes are laced up the fronts. SCARF PINS, or pins of any style, are not seen on cravats. The fashion of wearing but little jewelry provails alike with gentlemen as with ladies. Later in the season when fur-trimmed cloaks will be worn by those of the femi- nine world who can afford them, gentle- men will be seen with fur-trimmed over- coats. But during the early part of the season frieze sacks, cut double-breasted, and the English frock of medium length will be worn, The glory ot » man 18 hus strength.

Last year the loss on corn in Nubraska from want of these would have paid for them and it will be just so long as the want remains. These cribs should be built not over 10 feet wide for safety in all years, of good material, nearly tight ety supports, one foot above the ground and securely covered. If a lu-ru crop is raised the crib can be made a8 long as needed and o placed that it can serve the purpose of crib and wind break for one side of the cattle yard to which a shed can be added at small ex- pense, The habit of throwing corn on the ground should be abandoned at once it it is intended for market, or to lie long ws it in sure to spoil it for any purpose. No fu‘la can be placed on corn that has much dampness about it and corn so treated soon has & smell of mildew if not the visible spots. No dealer is safe in receiving it into his elevator and no far- mer can afford to raise corn and market it for the price it is really worth lumber for the roofs cannot be afforded I age,” and whose long years of experience ought to have brought wisdom, and not foolishness to his command, say: “I would vote for Beelzebub if he were honestly nominated on the republican ticket." Such men care more for the success of their party than for good government. More for their party than for right, law, or, justice. If their statements can be relied upon, theyare willing to see corrup- tion, fraud, lawlessness and anarchy itself, only so these things exist within their own party, and that party always in power. Or to put it in the mildest form, they would rather see every species of corruption exist than see their own party defeated. Blinded by prejudice and supreme selfishness, for such men are al- ways thus blindly devoted to party for their own personal agrandizewent, they vie with each other in makiug extrav- agant and idiotic expressions, supposed ll(; denote great party devotion mni loy- ty. ‘Y‘I would vote for a yellow dog,” says one, and *‘1 would vote for Beel- zobub, says another, if he were on my ticket,” Tney seek to become wvotorious, as dyed in the wool,” **trueblue,” *'staunch,” ‘‘straight,” ‘‘yellow do,” republicans.

The Unshrived Spirit of a Female Suicide Hanging Itself Nightly, Philadelphia Times. A crawd of superstitions and trembling countrymen and villagers conversed - in whispered tones last evening beneath a {owering oak, whose arching limbs spread over a small frame dwelling situated on the outskirts of town of Jackson, back of Atco, on the Camden and Atlantic rail- road, The strange gathering was for the pur- pose of investigating the report, that had t |spread like wildfire throughout the adja- cent country, that the ghost of Mrs. Die- trich, the former occupant of the cc ttage, who recently committed suicide by hang- ing, nightly made its appearance in her bedroom and that its moans and groans could be distinctly heard. While the party waited patiently for the “‘ghost to walk” an old, gray-haired man, whose tongue, however, had not lost its glib- ness, detailed to those who were not fa- milliar with the dead woman’s history some interesting chapter of her life. In his own disconnected way he told a story substantially as follows: Mrs. Anna Dietrich, a woman of good family, was extremely prepossessing, and before her marriage had been known in the town where she resided at ‘‘the vil- lage-born beauty.” her husband at Jackson she still lived at that place, respected and liked by the entire populace. About a year ago she fell a victim to the wiles of a ‘‘handsome stranger,” who afterward disappeared. Four months ago a child was born. The scandal was a great surprise and shock. With the charity usually displayed in small places for such unfortunates, abso- lute ostracism followed. The woman was pointed out as a social leper and her life was thus rendered unendurable. The day preceding her self-destruction a neighbor woman slammed a door in her face, after first ordering her from the house. Mrs. Dietrich returned howme and the next day was found hanging by the neck, dead, in her barn, Just as the narrator had concluded a sudden gust of wind rat- tled a shutter on the bedroom window, and a swinging limb, which while motionless had excluded the moon’s rays, let a flood of light for a moment into the room, “For God, there is Mrs. Anna!” ex- claimed the historian, hurrying off down the lane. His example was followed by a few of the more timid. Those who remained were assured by a man living on the place named *‘Wash” Walter (the original discoverer of the ghost) that it had not yet appeared. His story, which had set the entire country agog, was repeated to a Times reporter, who was present. It is to the effect that last Wodnesday night, as he was walking in front of the dead woman’s house, he heard a mean, which appeared to come from the loft. The doors were all with- out locks. He had no difficulty in enter- ing the house. Ascending to the dead woman’s bedroom (and the fellow claimed to know the way), he says he lit a match, which, although the air without was very calm, was instantaneously blown out by a sudden puff. Hethen litseveral iatches with the same result, and, becoming nerv- ous, was about to leave the house, when a vague, uncertain light filled the apart- ment, which, upon growing brighter, as it gradually did, revealed the ghostly form of Mrs. Dietrich, kneeling, with her hands clasped in a supplicating manner. Her hair was streaming down her back Spellbound, the intruder could not mo he says, but manfully witnessed the delib- erate action of the apparition as it unwound a coil of rope which lay in a corner, threw one end over the open door, shaped the other end into a noose, then stepped upon a chair and swung itself off, remaining suspended by the neck in the air. The misty light that pervaded the room then gradually faded away, and when darkness again reigned the gelf-accused, terror-stricken witness of the blood-curdling occurrence says ho rushed out of the building with a yell. The repurter waited until train-time for a manifestation of the ghostly pres ence, but in vain, Whether or not the ghost story owes its origin to an unsettled condition of its discoverer's mind, or is told by him as a vainglorious joke, it is generally credited, and & few firm be- Tievers in spooks are in favor of exhuming he body of the suicide and turning it fuce downward in the coftin, in order that its spirit may rest in peace.
