Speaking more particularly of the

as are current. The family, consisting

an industrious and energetic couple.
The children were bright, active, and

Fly complained of dizziness snd was
soon afierwards violently seized with
spasms. Within one hour from her first
complaning, she was dead. Mr. Fly died
before morning, and the oldest children
were found dead in the morning, upon a
neighbors’s doorstep, whither, it is sup-
posed, they had gome for assistance.
Yesterday—Sunday—two more of the
children died, and the remaining three

Ax Invitariox To Dixxmn.—A good
story is told of a couple of farmers who
lived a few miles apart. One day one
called on the other, happening around at
dinner time. The person called upon,
by the way, was a rather penurious old
fellow. He was seated atl the table, en-
joying bis dinwer. The visitor drew to
the stove, looking very wishfully toward
the table, expecting the old farmer to in-
vite him to dine. The oid farmer kept
on esting.
“What's the news up your way,neigh-
hort TUN eating. * No news, oh 1”
“* No, I believe not.” Presently a the't
struck the visitor. ** Well, yes, friend,
1 did hear of one item of mews that's
worth mentioning.”
* Ha, what is that 1
* Neighbor Jones bas a cow that has
five calves.”
“Js that so! Good gracious! What
in thunder does the fifth ealf do when

“Why, be stands and looks on, just

Political.
The Pennsulyvania Democracy.
The New York Citizen, the well
known Democratic weekly, formerly
owned by ‘Miles O'Reilly,’, has ne
spmpathy with the Pennsylvania Dem-
ocracy,either in their platform or can-
didates. It says: —
“No condemnation of the rebellion
against which the soldiers fought even
though the soldiers were praised—
the omission being an insult, If any
reference to the subject were proper.
No fitting expression in favor of echn-~
omy in public expenditures ; nothing,
in fact, first or last, but the old negro
question and general abuse of Repub-
licans. The self-same grumbling with-
out proposing an improvment; the
same refusal to understand the altered
position of the whole country, which
has led to defest so frequently. The
nemination of a man with nothing to
recomend him but the faculty of heap
ing up wealth, with no record worth
mentiening.and nothing about him to
arouse enthusissm but his money.’ Not
the first sign of true loyalty, nor the
least evidenee of a devotion to the
best interests of the whole country.
Under such circumstances we do not
expect nor wish that the Democrats

Tae silence of the ** greenbacks for
bonds’’ supporters of Packer is begin:
ning to be pai We had a suspic
n that some of them might be honest
in their claims; but ince the nomins-
tion of Packer.the bloated bondholder
nf ul
the delusion hasbeen dissipated. But
let no one suppose that Packer took
the bonds when the country wanted
money most, and when patriotic men
came forward with aid to the extent of
| their ability. Packer did no
{ thing. He had no heart for such a bus-
such
| iness. Between the two he would have
| given sooner to the Jeff. Davis coneern.
Not wishing to assist the Government,
and not daring to assist—openly at
| least— the Confederacy, he kept Lis
money till he perceived that the bonds
| were good to speculate in. He then
| went in to the tune of some millions,
| which he doubtless intends to keep
without taxation till he gets his gold.
| Hence the silence of the ones blatant
| organs whose cry has ever been green-
backs for bonds.”
Hancock didn't suit the Demo

held responsible—when they got into a
fight, shot too many members of the
