Cowper's Thoughts of Animals.
In measure as by force of instinct drawn,
Or by necessity constrained they live
Dependent upon man, those in the fields,
Those at his crib, and some beneath his roof :
They prove too often at how dear a rate
He sells protection. Witness at his foot
The spaniel dying for some venial fault,
Under dissection of the knotted scourge.
Witness the patient ox, with stripes and yells,
Driven to slaughter, goaded as he runs
To madness, while the savage at his heels
Laughs at the frantic sufferer's fury spent
Upon the guiltless passenger o'orthrown.
Ile, too, is witness, noblest of the train
That wait on matt, the flight-performing horse ;
With unsuspecting readiness he takes
His murderer on his back, and push'd all day
With bleeding sides and flanks that heave for life
To the far distant goal, arrives and dies.
So little mercy shows who need so much!
Does law, so jealous in the cause of man,
Denounce no doom on the delinquent? None.
Ile lives, and o'er his brimming beaker boasts
(As if barbarity were high desert)
The inglorious feat, and clamorous in praise
Of the poor brute, seems wisely to suppose
The honors of his matchless horse his own.
But many -a crime deemed innocent on earth
Is registered in heaven, and these, no doubt,
Have each their record, with their curse annex'd.
Man may dismiss compassion from his heart,
But God will never. When he charged the Jew
To assist the foe's down-fallen beast to rise,
And when the bush-exploring boy that seized
The young, to let the parent bird go free,
Proved he not plainly that his meaner works
Are yet his care, and have an interest all,
All, in the Universal Father's Love?
Success in Farming.
We often notice articles in print giving
directions to insure success in the business
of farming, and the writers invariably lead
us to infer that to make money and Leen
mulate wealth is the main object to be
attained. If one is constantly getting
better off in a pecuniary point of view we
are to understand that his eff-jrts are in
full and complete success.
Now we hold that making money is not
thezeatest object for which we should
labor, either on the farm or elsewhere.
There are higher aims and higher par
poses. A farmer can make himself an
abject slave, if he will, and still accumu
late wealth. He may work to the last
stage of human endurance and break him
self down at middle age, becoming old
before his time; he may do all this and be
successful in gathering in worldly goods
and enlarging his possessions. To be a
good farmer, thrifty and progressive, is a
noble ambition, but we ought to consider
that every-day happiness and enjoyment
is the objective point toward which our
energies should be directed. We can not
possibly enjoy life by being indolent,
slovenly, and neglectful of onr interests.
Neither can we be happy while racked
with rheumatic pains caused by overwork
and exposure. Money will not purchase
a sound, healthy body when health is once
lost, and we can not count that man suc
cessful who toils and struggles, works and
delves, almost night and day, ruining his
health and destroying himself, in fact,
even though he may be doubling his pos
sessions every decade.
As a general thing farmers do not pay
that attention to the cultivation of the
mind and the development of their social
faculties that they should. Too many of
them have an idea that education belongs
to the professional classes, and that farmers
should not take time to advance beyond
the narrow boundary of their own domain
in search of wisdom and knowledge. It is
no sign that, because I am a fanner, I
need not know any thing of history, biog
raphy, affairs of government, and the
scienees. Indeed, there is no other class
has greater opportunities for the cultiva
tion of the mind in its broadest sense than
the agricultural class. No class possesses
greater chances fur unalloyed happiness.
And if we do not, in our blindness, find
this out and make the most of it we are
not a success notwithstanding we may
leave a large-estate to our posterity.
I know of many farmers to-day who, by
constant and untiring labor, are accumu
latiog-property, and the more they gather
in the-more their minds become dwarfed,
the less social they are, and the less public
spirited. It is impossible to wring frcm
them a single dollar for either Christian,
benevolent, or public purposes. They
have settled completely down to a life of
slavery of both body and mind. Such
men are good for one thing—they help
pay the taxes. Outside of that they ale
good for nothing, and their life is a failure.
Farmers, let us wake up to the import
ant fact that there are more ways than one
to make our calling a success, and higher
aims than simply making money.—Samuel
F. Emerson in Gerntantown Telegraph.
Why Bees Work in the Dark
Every one knows what fresh honey is
like—a clear yellow syrup, without any
sugar in it. After straining it gradually
assumes a crystaline appearance—it
candies, as the saying is, and ultimately
becomes a solid mass of sugar. It has
been suspected that this change is due to
photographic action—the same agent
which alters the molecular arrangement of
the iodine of silver on the excited collodion
plate and determines the formation of
camphor and iodine crystals in a bottle,
causes honey to assume a crystaline. M.
Scheibler inclosed strained honey in well
corked flasks, some of which be kept in
perfect darkness, while the others were
exposed to the light. The result has been
that that portion exposed to the light soon
crystalizes, while that kept in the dark
remains unchanged. Hence we see why
the bees are so careful to work in the dark,
and why they are so careful to obscure the
glass windows which are sometimes placed
in their hives. The existence of the
young depends on the liquidity of the
saccharine food presented to them, and if
light were allowed access to this in all
probability it would prove fatal to the
inmates of the hive.
The Fat Men's Convention.
We can see some pleasure, if no reason, in the
convening of a baby show, but we confess we
could never see the slightest cause, reasonable or
otherwise, for a fat men's convention, unless it be
the fact that misery loves company. For fifty or
a hundred men whose several weights range from
two hundred to three hundred pounds, to hold a
convention simply because of so much surplus
avoirdupois, is absurd to say the least. It be
comes doubly so when we reflect that obesity is a
disease. What would we think of as many per
sons emaciated by consumption holding a conven
tion to compare their relative weights. There is
but one ground upon which we 'would advocate
another fat men's convention, and that is that
they will meet to discuss the merits of Allan's
Anti-Fat, the only known remedy for obesity. It

Patical Jingle.
Greenbnckers try to raise a storm,
They say they love their nation;
They loudly cry, "we want reform,"
But seek repudiation.
They think themselves must wondrous wise
Above their maiden aunt, sir,
They understand beyond surprise
The question of finance, sir.
A boy of five or six years old
May smoke and chew tobacco:
lint they are not quite half so bold
As a Huntington Greenhacker.
Should Sherman or Galusha Grow
Desire information,
They'd tell them all they wish to know
And thus surprise the nation.
Yet one thing more I will
Their principles are hollow,
As that in which they most delight
Their green rag-baby
Greenbackers now are very sick,
They like nut their condition,
One thing would cure them very quick,
'Tie a good fat position.
For the Greenbackers to a man,
Especially the speakers,
Belong to a peculiar chin,
For they are office-seekers.
The only fault they with us tied,
For which we're badly rated,
Our nominees are true and kind
But too much educated.
Some want to have an equal chance.
Their hearts would be elated,
They fully understand finance
Unless self-over rated.
Republicans in pure reform
Are first-class educators,
They rid the nation of the storm
Raised by Repudiators.
Who money want by millions wadi,
Must show that it will follow,
That it will do for foreign trade,
The green rag baby dollar.
"Has not the government the right
To fabricate its money ?
So we may to our heart's delight
Feed on its pap and honey."
Such visions vain Greenbacker's dream,
'Tie but an empty fable,
To eat the bread and drink the cream,
To work they must be able.
For if they want a dollar's worth
Sums line of trade mast follow,
Then they will earn with joyful mirth
A gold or silver dollar.
Come all ye freemen, young and •1(1,
With happy contemplation,
And vote fur dollar based on gold
The pledge •f our great nation.
Republicans, stand firm in line,
Your principles remember;
Roll up the vote three thousand nine
The . flfth of next November.
Then soon the forges' blast will blow,
Mechanics will find labor,
Our needy homes with plenty glow,
And neighbor joy with nei, , hbor.
Our nominees are tried and true
As any one could wish for,
For Congress one who is "true blue,"
. .
His name is 11. G. Fisher.
One thing against him is proclaimed,
By folks incendiary,
This town a site ho quickly named
For the penitentiary.
One thing said Jimmy Walls, one day,
I'd have you all to know, sir,
T'were better had it come this way
About four years ago, sir.
.Though Jimmy Walls is crazed, you know,
The thought was quito inspiring
For sly suggestions from it flow
To all who are inquiring.
For Harrisburg two teams are run,
A Loco and a preacher,
Will show you how the thing is done
By a merchant and a teacher.
The demo-greenbacks nominees
Can not be very strong, sirs,
If one is right, judge as you please,
- .
The other must be wrong, sir.
Our record for quite sixteen years
Has gained us reputation,
The work we done it now appears
T'was well done fur tho nation.
The Greenback party is forestall'd,
And this is their vexation,
Their party here is double wail'd
And yet not ono foundation.
The Fisher Club is now in line,
No longer will they linger,
The demo greenbacks will repine
Because they lose their Stinger.
Fisher is an honest man,
And he will be elected ;
Stanger is of are her clan
And Le will be rejected.
Foust and Doyle, a Jersey team,
Now is it not quite funny,
Although they do together dream
They can't agree on money.
Dreams contrary do appear,
It is a sad, sad pity,
We will heat them, never fear
With Bmit'i and Sam McVitty.
Our Wililainson, known as "Mae,'
As true as steel and stirling,
lie is safely on the track
To send John Whitesides whirling.
For Kuntzeluian, from near and far,
The honest votes are pouring,
One thing to me is very queer
Where a-e the votes for Boring ?
The Fisher Club, two hundred strong,
Will never scratch a man, sir,
Because they think it is a wrong
For which they could not answer
A piper is the two-edged spear
His pnradox debating:
'•lt is, 'Tis not," it will appear,
Though not as I'm relating;
"I'm not for Dill, for greenbacks, ID ,
For workingmen ! Oh, no, sir,
Hurrah for Foust and Doyle; I know
They'll voto the way I crow sir!
Facts For the People.
The New York Tribune says, truthfully, re
bellion was Democratic. It broke out in Dem
ocratic States. It was confined to Democrat
ic States. It was hatched by Southern Dem
ocrats. Democrats officered the rebel army.
Democrats made up the rank and file. Demo
ciats filled every office in the Confederate gov
ernment, from the Presidency down to the
clerkships and the messengership. There
wasn't a Republican with a shoulder-strap, or
a musket, or a "place" in the whole devilish
concern. In the Democratic city of Washing
too, under the Democratic administration of
Buchanan, the rebellion was conspired and
prepared. A Democratic member of that Dem
ocratic Administration stripped the North of
arms and smuggled them over to the South,
and sent the army where it would be unavail
able or could easily be captured.
A Democratic member of that same Demo
cratic Administration scattered the navy over
the world, so that it could not be used on the
rebel seaboard. A Democratic Secretary of
the Treasury plundered his trust to supply the
rebellion with money. A Democratic Presi
dent, entreated to do something to save the
nation, refused, declaring and arguing that
the Government could not constitutionally de •
fend itself, and that it was unlawful to coerce
rebels ; and sat sullenly down and allowed the
nation's arsenals to be plundered, and the na
tion's ships, navy yards, and fortresses to Le
seized, and the rebel armies to be organised,
without lifting a finger to prevent. "Demo
crats" throughout every Northern and Western
State applauded the conduct of their Demo
cratic President, adopted and defended his
Democratic doctrine that the Government bad
no right to apply force to suppress a rebellion,
aid from the word "go" politically opposed
every legislative, financial, military, and mor
al measure taken to speedily and successfully
prosecute the war and save the nation's life.
The country's past and present woes are Dem
ocratic, all and every one of them, without one
solitary exception.
A Western editor says: "Let Democratic
journals and orators howl over the debt and
taxes their war has brought. They but mag
nify their own sins. Every dollar of debt is a
Democratic legacy. Every tax is a Democrat
is gift. Every Government stamp is a Demo
cratic sticking plaster. Every person in the
United States drinks Democracy in his tea,
his coffee, and his whisky, and in the sugar
wherewith be sweetens them. Each ingre,ti
ent pays its quo.la for the cost of Democracy
to the country. The smoker inhales Democ
racy. The sick man is physicked with De
mocracy. The laboring man gives about one
hour's labor every day to pay for Democracy.
The capitalists pay one-tenth of his income for
the cost of the Democratic party.
"Every transfer of property is saddled with
the Democratic burden. Before he Is begotten
the child is subject to the Democratic, tax.
From the cradle to the grave he never is free
from it, The funeral mourning must first pay
the penalty of Democratic rule, and a portion
of that which he leaves behind must go into
this Democratic vortex. Generation after gen
eration will carry the Democratic burden from
birth to death. But for the Democratic party
our people would hardly have known the na
ture of taxation. But for the Democratic party
the hundreds of thousands ofyoung men whose
bones are strewn over the South would nowk
be productive laborer and support and com
fort of families now desolate.
"No one can attempt to deny this indictment.
No one can pretend that the Democratic party
had any cause for the rebellion. Yet it has
the effrontery to cry over the burdens of tax
ation. As the father of the Democratic party,
when be had stripped Job of family and pos
sessions,charged it to his own sins, and sought
to draw him from his integrity, so his Demo.
cratic sons new come forward with equal ef
frontery and charge their doings upon the loy
al people and hypocritically howl over their
afflictions, and seek to seduce theta from their
integrity, to elect to power the party that has
brought all these woes upon the land,"
