BHATTON «t KENNEDY, Address, OfII CANDIDATE. An exchange, speaking of thC State ticket, says that Hon. Charles E. Boyle, Democratic candidate for Auditor Gen eral, is a self-made man. He is a prac tical printer. For several years lie was editor of the Genius of Liberty, the old organ of the Democracy of Fayette county. At the same time lie sluclied law, and soon after being admitted to -the bar, was chosen District Attorney. He served the past two years in the State Legislature, and in- that short time established a State reputation Which has given him the nomination for the high cilice to which lie lias been selected. Mr. Boyle is yet a young man—we presume not much over thir ty years of ago. He is a lawyer of abil ity, and above all, a man of high char acter—strictly honest and fair in all iti.s transactions, and will make a compe tent and laithful ollleer. He is a g.,od public speaker, and sound in the Dem ocratic faith. His election can and must bo made sure. Onward, Democrats I—More than two million Democrats enter this Pres i 'en ial contest, to win back Democratic Government for the whole people.— Wo have no responsibilities or bag gage-wagons loaded with plunder to check our march. Wo have courageous leaders. We have never dying princi ples. We unfurl a map of thirty-seven states, and raise high the old flag, and demand the old Constitution to live un der, with equal representation, equal taxes and a white man’s Government. Onward, Democrats I Mbs. Harriet Beecher Stowe, now resi ent in Florida, thus rakes up her testimony: “ The Southern people are no more inclined to resist tire laws or to foster tiro spirit of rebellion than Vermont is. They desire only peace anti the restoration of the Union.!’ TAXES* Foil THE I*ooll MAN—HOLD FOR THE HONDItOLDER. Congress is wasting week after week .in devising ways and means to pay the interest on tho national debt and pro vide stealings for tho Radical olllco holders—and yet, strange to say, it never occurs to tho bomlliolding lords, who under Radical rule legislate for the laboring man, to tax their own bonds. Every proposition which has been in troduced has been indignantly scouted out of Congress. These men who revel on ill-gotten gains, and. count their five twenties by tens of thousands, think it perfectly fair and honest that the labor ing man should be taxed in everything he eats and drinks and wears—that the product of his labor should be taxed in every shape it takes under bis skillful hands—in order that tho bond-holding aristocrat may get ids six per cent, in gold on bonds which are exempt from taxation. This is Radical policy. Tn is is the principle they reassert in their Chicago platform, -and which every man will vote for who votes tho Radi cal ticket—gold interest and exemption’ from taxation for tho rich—rags for money, unrequited labor and grinding taxes for tho poor. Look at the facts. A barrel of Hour used to cost four or five dollars. Radical legislation has in creased it three fold. This is the tax which tho bondholders have placed upon the bread the poor man’s children eat. When the poor man wants to kin dle his fire ho takes a match from a box on which there is agovernmentstamp, and that stamp goes to pay the bond holder his six per cent, in gold. Tho rich man may possessa millionin bonds, and they arc exempt from taxation.— But the poor man’s house, however humble, is t >xed, and if the taxes are not paid it will bo sold at tax sale over his head, and tho proceeds of the sale . finally get into tho bondholder’s pock et, in six per cent, gold interest on his coupons. The poor man used to get two or three dollars per day in gold or silver. Now he gets it in paper worth sixty cents on the dollar, and \yith this depreciated currency he pays twice as much for the food Ills family eats.— This is the tithe levied upon him by bondholding “ loyalty.” Under tills system of Radical robbery the rich man is getting richer and the poor man poorer. This is the prize the poor man drew in the Black Kepubli cm lottery. The rich do not rmv their share of the taxes,and the balance falls upon the poor to pay. If the money invested in government bonds, in this county, bore its proportion of lax, the burden would ftvll comparatively easy on all. As it is, the bonds are thrown out of the assessment entirely, and the poor man pays his own luxes and those, his rich neighbor. The poor pay the taxes and the bondholders put them in their pockets* Every coupon the Rad- ical bondholder hands in to be cashed Is a corner cut olf of the house and lot of the poor man. This “ best govern ment the world ever saw” is one in which all legislation is in the interest of the rich, while the j-»oor man pays tri- bute to nabob. The jingle of the bondholder’s gold has thus far drowned the poor man’s cry for justice; but there is a day of retribution coming. No government can stand which places the heel of the rich nabob upon the neck of the labor ing man, and no such government ought to stand. The JaboHug men are the bone and sinew of the country. It would be well for our monied nristoc- racy to heed the muttering:; of the com ing storm, and do justice while it is in their power, or it may happen that in a general financial convulsion they will get’neither greenbacks or gold for their bonds. We hear a good deal now a-clays about “ keeping the faith of the government towards its creditors.”— Lot it not be forgotten that the labor ing men of this country are the source of all its wealth and Its most deserving creditors. They are entitled to the blessings of a just and equitable govern ment, which bears equally upon all classes of citizens. When we deprive them of these, and rob them of the re sult of their nonest toil to stull* out the plethoric pockets of a bondholding arid tocraey, the country has no longer any claim to their • allegiance, and they would be justified in driving oil* the public robbers by the use of any means within their power. S JO A ob 8 DO 10 d 0 J 5 00 25 00 “The groat question which politicians should study Ju.si now, is. what shall be* done to relieve the taxpayers? That the-country cannot long endure the present rale of taxation, nnd prosper, is no longer a debatable question.* The burthen *s now so heavy that many think U really chin ('crotiK to add another feather to the eaine.l’.s load. Whence, then, shall relief coiiio?”— Ez Wc answer—turn out of Congress the robbers and thieves who are adding to our indebtedness at the rate of ten mill ions of dollars a month ; do away with that sink of iniquity the Freedmen’s Bureau; send adrift the sixty thousand troops who are now quartered in the South to assist vagabond negroes to car ry elections; tax Government Bonds, Justus all other sources of investment and wealth are taxed; cut down sala ries when they are too high ; dispense with the thousands of office holders who have nothing to do but receipt for their salaries; reduceourarmy and navy to a peace footing; practice economy in all the departments, and our word for it, the long wished for relief will come. Ourlisle, Vena'a. Grant in Favor ok Negro Runic. When General Hancock had removed some of the Aldermen and other city oflicers of New Orleans, because their misconduct was intolerable, General Grant ordered themjo he restored. A majority of those removed wore utterly incompetent negroes, and to keep those ignorant blacks in power over white men was esteemed desirai.le by the ex treme men of the parly, whose tool Grant lias consented to become. So lie obeys their mandate in that spirit of submission which has since led him to declare that lie will have no policy or will of ids own, if elected President.— That the people will ever consent to see such a man made the Chief Magistrate of tho Nation, we cannot believe. The reason why the Senate did not vcfte on the remaining articles of the Impeachment was to’save their friends the money, bet on the result. This Im peachment turns out to have been a most wretched and infamous system of gambling to raise money to carry on the next election. Wo hope the preach ers will remember tills in their prayers for Grant and Colfax. See our Club rates for tho Caucas ian, under theeditorial head, and send in your clubs at once. “LET UN HAVE PEACE.” “ Lot us have peace” is the concluding portion of Grant’s letter accepting the Chicago nomination. Aye “ let us have peace,” is the prayer which swells up from the great heagt of the nation.— Millions of human lips are uttering the words. It is the aspiration of every pa triotic heart. But the masses of the p.-uple know and led that there can be no true peace while tlie Radical party maintains its hold on power. They feel and know that tho first great neces sity of the hour is the defeat of that cor rupt and mercenary organization; Yes, the people are determined to have peace, and they know how to get it. They will not continue men in power who will stand in tho way of its blessed coining. General Grant cannot be sin cere if he moans that peace can be se cured by carrying out the policy of the Radicals, for he has denounced that pol icy ns destructive, and as calculated to bring about a war of races. It is the fault of tho Radical party that peace has not come before this. They have had complete control of the government ever since the war ended. ’They have directed tho whole course of legislation, and they jilone are responsible for tho present distracted condition of the coun try. Will it bring peace to the country to sustain the negro despotisms which have been established by bayonets over the white people of the South? Will it bring peace to the country, to insist on electing himself President by the eighty negro electoral votes of the South?— Will it bring peace to maintain the freedmeu’s bureau swindle, and use it as a means to enforce the rule of half civilized negroes and Northern jail birds? If this is ttie peace General Grant would have,* ho will not get it with the consent of the white freemen of tho North, lie must go to the bar barian negroes ofthe South for his sup porters. A Knave, but not a Fool.—When gold was worth S-SO in greenbacks, Hen Butler, a military commander, seized $OB,OOO in Now Orleans, sent it to New York, and undoubtedly sold it realizing $170,000 in greenbacks. The owner of the gold sued Butler, and got judgment. Butler, honest soul, paid the judgment in greenbacks, making only one hun dred and eight thousand dollars by the transaction. But he is an acknowl “ pm \jf mvtnl ideas.” How true thesaying of the old “ Beast,” in reply to Chandler, as they were conversing on Pennsylva nia Avenue, the other day: “People call mo a knave, but you never heard, anybody call me a fool.” Beauties of Radicalism.—During thepastinontii, the citizens of Washing ton have been enjoying the practical re sults of Radical teachings in negro mobs parading the streets, assaulting and murdering white persons, breaking op en and pilaging stores and restaurants, smashing the windows of private resi dences, besides other acts of high hand ed and lawless outrage. The month has witnessed a perfect saturnalia of blood in the capital city. This is but the na tural result of Radical teachings in Con gress, and if not speedily squelched by the while people at the ballot box, will end in a war of races that will extermi nate the unfortunate negroes, who have been deceived by wretched white dem agogues who are using them merely fur personal aggrandizement. The proposition to force negro suffrage on all the Northern States, was again before Congress on Friday. Senators Sumner and Yates both spoke in favor of it. If, they say, Congress can im pose negro suffrage on the South, why not oii the North? Surely, why not? The question is well put and comes from the right quarter, although it Is a direct kicking over of the Chicago platform. These men are honest. They are no hypocrites. It is dishonest to force such a dose on the South and reject it every where in the North. “ What’s sauce for the goose,” ought to be “ sauce foi the gander.” The trial of Jeff Davis, under Radi cal mismanagement, is again postponed to November next. Why not postpone it indefinitely, gentlemen, and let the “arch traitor” go. Surely you don’t intend to convict him when you didn’t convict Andy Johnson, whom you re garded as a “ red handed,” “ double dyed,” “ horned-and-huofed” traitor. Better give it up for a bad job. Hor ace Greely will doubtless stand bail for Davis for all time to come, so save your money and buy ‘‘ flannel weskits” for the colored folks in the South., What has become of Stanton? He has gone but like a penny dip. His light has been thoroughly extinguished and will never again be rekindled. — Andrew Johnson squelched the petty tyrant as effectually as he caused Sheri dan and Sickles to subside. Stanton, having ceased to be thojdiant agent of the conspirators, has sunk into well merited insignificant e, from which not even his most intimate fellow mischief workers have either the disposition or the ability to rescue him. Grant sends his children to school in a carrringe, a mounted orderly chid in the uniform of a United States soldier rides behind. The salary of the Gener al is near twenty thousand dollars per annum, which comes out of the oppres sed tax-payers of the North. ,He lives in a magnificent mansion which was presented to him, and pays no taxes on iris bonds. Truly we are on the verge of royalty. How pleasant to pay the tuxes ourselves to keep up all this show. What say you, taxpayers? The Russian Government lias issued a decree that all persons in Poland are to take oil their hats to the police when passing, on pain of fine and imprison ment. We have the same thing in the Southern part of this country. Every corporal in the army requires the Southern people to u off hats” when he passes. The Russian government is called a despotism. We call ours re publican. Not much difference. Our friends in various parts of the State are responding cordially to our Caucasian prospectuses. Wo have already received lists from Westmore land, Perry, Lancaster, Berks, North ampton, Tioga, Butler, Leßanon, Dau phin, Chester, Centre, and York Coun ties, together with inquiries and encour aging reports from several other coun ties. Keep the ball rolling. OIIANT AS A TYIIANT. On tho night of Mnrch*So, a certain George W. Ashburn was killed in a negro house of«ll-famo, in the city of Columbus, Georgia. From the differ ences known to exist between Ashburn and some of his political associates it was generally believed that he was killed by members of ids own party, who were in the house at the same time, and wore heard by several witnesses to make threats against tho life of Ash burn. To direct suspicion from them selves, these men endeavored to suborn a number of negro witnesses to swear the crime upon several of the most re spectable conservative citizens in the community. These negroes were ar rested and carried before the military officers of the post, and were kept in close confinement for several days, with out food, in tho hope of eliciting from them something that would implicate the parties on whom it had been deter mined to fasten the crime; but their testimony only went to confirm the gen eral belief‘that none of, these parties were within miles of the place of the murder on the night it was committed. Notwithstanding thiS, these gentlemen were thrown into prison, where they could neither learn the cause of their arrest, nor tho names of their accusers, and are some of them there to this day. This is under the mild and beneficent sway of Ulysses Grant. This is under the rule of the man who wants peace. Shall we have a similar peace estab lished in the North? Is tills military dictator to have the lives, liberty and property of the whole people placed at his disposal as he now has those of the people of tho South? Are we willing that tho Republican party shall make Ulysses S. Grant military dictator of the whole country? If so all that it will be necessary' tu do will be to vote the Radical ticket in tho Presidential election. Then this tyrant can throw us all into his military dungeons and hold us at his absolute disposal. Long live our military despotism ! Grant Stock.— Thereappoars to be no enth usiusm over the nomination of Grunt. Ho whs the forlorn hope of the Wooly heads who assembled at Chicago, but tin people seem to earc but little about him. They ace ready to admit that he may have been good in youth at mule riding in u circus. They have been told that he smokes well, and-.** talks horse” vehe mently. They know he slocked a very large burying ground—turning into a constant stream of “twenty thousand more;” but they believe that hard drink ing is'poor qualification for the Presiden cy. Besides all this, Grant has got into verj bad company. His controversy with the Presidentand his Cabinet, shows thin he can lie quite us well as Forney, but whether he can really steal like Butler or whether he prefers a negro wench to a white woman, like Stevens, we are at pres ent uninformed. It is, however, true that *’ bints of a feather flock together,’ and if any man whose only ability con sists in silence and obstinacy cun carry such a load of despotism and infamy us is now weighing upon the shoulders of the smoking Ulysses, we shall then belie\e that infamy in the eyes of the American people is harmless and that treason is only another name for patriotism. ,S*ro£rcHs .of the ITulou Pacific Railroad.

There is surely no more econ omical way to increase our vote. His Speech.—Grant made the follow ing speech on being visited by the com mittee appointed to inform him of his nomination : “ You’d scarce expect one of my age To speak in public on the stage, And if 1 chance to fall below Charles Sumner ami Gulusha Grow, Don’t view me with Ben Butler’s eye But pass my imperfections by. From Marshal’s pups great (fogs do blow From little colts great horses grow. As you’ll agree it is too late For me to try to cultivate The art of speaking. Therefore X Will let the little job go by. I’ll only say that I’ll fulfill Whatever so i my friends may will. Ami it is now my lull intent. If I am chosen President To so discharge otlicial duty That every act my friends, will suit you. Th,h people will readily see how gla ring a falsehood is the resolution of the Chicago platform, which charges the President with responsibility for the extravagance which prevails, when they remember that Andrew Johnson can not even draw a dollar of his own sala ry except under the appropriation act, which must first be passed by Congress. Butler says Bingham is a murderer. Bingham says Butler is a coward and a thief. Donnelly says Washburne is a scoundrel and a fool. Washburne says Donnelly'is a criminal and a liar. All these leaders of Radicalism are on domed for truth, and veracity, and in this instance none will question their reliatjility. Galena, the home of Grant, Has an swered tiro voice of Oregon by electing the whole Democratic ticket by a ma jority of 300. This occurred less than ten days ago, and we presume no one can sny the Radicals of Galena had not heard of Grant’s nomination. Every election which takes place points to one result—a crushing defeat of the Radical party and its expediency candidate. A prominent Oswego Republican made a bet the other day with a Radi cal brother of ten tons of coal, that the State of New York would give 75,000 majority for the Democrats. who is coifaxj There are hundreds of peoplethrough out the country who know no more about Schuyler Colfax, than they do about a half hostler at a country hotel. Although ho has represented a certain portion of Indiana in the Congress of tho United States, and been the editor of a newspaper from tho time he was old enough to choose tho wrong that It might lead to affluence, yet so meagre are his abilities, that ho haf never yet accomplished a single object to attract tho attention of tho public generally.— True, he has been Speaker of the House of Representatives, but ho was chosen to that position because he was one of the “ ring” of the corruptionists about the capitol. As Speaker, he has ailed tho chair,, but Billy Todd, the speaker’s page, has boon the speaker in reality--has done all the labor attend ent upon the position. Schuyler was never able to do any thing but take care of his pocket, when delivering his so-called lecture “Across the Continent,” and to organize Know- Nothing Lodges, which business he turned his entire attention to in 1854. Hero arc a couple of the oaths he took at that time, which we commend to tho earnest attention of foreigners generally and our Catholic friends in particular. They will serve to call up a few recol lections of burnt churches, of ostracised Irishmen, ol imprisoned Sisters of char ity, and other little matters, which the party now asking the support of Irish men, acccmp'ished, when they became so careful of their government. Here fs his platform. In tho Cock-loft of the Exchange Hotel, South Bend, Indiana,, on tho night of tho 17th of June, 1804, he took the following oath : “hi the presence of Almighty Gotl ami these witnesses 1 do solemnly promise and swear that I will not vote, nor give my Inlluence. lor any man for any cilice In the gift of the people, unless he ho on American born citizen, in favor ol Americans ruling America, nor If ho be a Roman Catholic.” * SECOND DEQUEK, “ la the presence of Almighty God and those witnesses I do solemnly and slm oroly swear, 11 It maybe legally done, I will, when elected or appointed to any olllclal station conferring on nu* the power «o do bo, remove all foreigners, al iens or Homan Catholics from ofllce or place, iinil that I will In no case appoint such to any olllce or place In my gift.” Foreigners and Catholics will see in these oaths the evidence of the sympa thy this candidate for Vice-President has for them. It is overwhelming, ain’t it ? How ungrateful for any one who happened to be born outside the limits of this “the best government the sun ever shown upon.” .to turn his back up on Colfax —to refuse to support him, af ter all that he has done and promised for them 1 ADVERTISEMENTS.

The Secretary of War sent to the House to-day an estimate by the Paymaster General of deficiencies of appropriations required for reconstruction purposes. An estimate of necessary expense was seni to the House Committee on the 14th of December, as follows : First district, $4- 50,000; second d.strict, §199,080,25 ; third district, $197,102,99 ; fourth district, $383,- 522 ; fifth district,ss2l,B79,BB. Appropri ations were made January 31, as follows: First district, $50,000; second district, $110,183,74; third district, $97,000 ; fourth district, $500,000; filth district, $240,000. On May 10th an appropriation of $87*701. 55 was made for the first district. The balance unappropriated ia ocmv applied lor. From the above, remarks the Lancas ter I/Uclliycnccr , the tax payers may get some slight idea of what it costs to enrol negroes anti drive them to the polls to elect a set of worthless carpetbag adven turers and seally-wngs to "office. How long will the masses of the Republican party sustain the faction of Radical office holders which admits that its only hope of success is in keeping up military des potism and negro supremacy in the South at the expense of the toiling white nun of the North ? Grant is the candidate ot this faction for the Presidency. The tux payers must vote them down, if they would have relief. Ex-President Pierce has written to say that lie will sustain Mr. Seymour, Mr. Hendricks, Mr.. Doolittle, Gtn. Hancock, or any other man whom the Convention may nominate for the Pres idency. Pie desires a united Democra cy, ami a vigorous effort to “ arrest the surge of Constitution defying Jacobin ism.” , Mr. Ross-of the House of Represen tatives in Congress asked Stevens “if Senators would bo justified in perjuring themselves for tlie purpose-qf procuring a conviction of the President? 1 -’ He replied “well I don’t think it would hurt them much.” . The old sinner nearly ripe for another world. The Rump Reconstruction Commit tee has reported a bill cutting up the territory of Texas into three States—to be named East Texas, South Texas and Texas. It provides for the admission of these states as soon as they ratifly the Black Republican fourteenth article, which they attempt to force into tiie Constitution, in order to enfranchise all the niggers. - The Radical Convention of Philadel phia last week, after much bickering, ruminated W. B. Mann for District Attorney, but the offended minority delegates formed another convention and nominated Isaac Haziehurst. This “split” will insure the election of the Democratic candidate. Oun friends will oblige us by sending in their clubs for the Caucasian at as early a day as possible in order that we may have our mailing list classified and properly arranged by July 10, the day of the first issue. Why GrontDlslltee* tho Jew#. The question is often naked, “Whnf lias Gen. Grant against tho Jews?" or, “ Why did ho Issue that notorious proc lamation driving all the Jews and oth er vagabonds outside of his encamp ment? 11 And not having sden publish ed any satisfactory answer, I will give you what 1 suppose to bo the real .cause, of his dislike of the Jews. During the winter of 1859 and 1860, while Grant was about to commence business on his own hook and thinking there was aspeculalion in buying dressed hOgsond shipping them to Chicago, he came down to Hie town of Bellevue, lying some miles south-west on the west bank of the Mlesissppl, for tho pupose of buying of farmers as they came in town with their pork and having it hauled to Galena and there shipped on the rail road to Chicago or in any other way disposed of so as to mako a profit which was very honorable and if mana ged understandingly could have been a profitable business. There lived at that time in Bellevue a man by the name of Rosenthal who was a Jew and who was In the pork trade and of course would be glad to keep the trade in his own hands, so he determined if possible not to give Grant much of a chance und the first twoor three loadsof pork were bid up far beyond its real value and finally Hold to Grunt. By this time Ro:-enthnl discovered thalGmntknew nodiflerence between the price of light ami heavy fiogs, when in reality there isadillerence of at least one dollar per hundred,-‘-heavy hogs, being worth one dollar the most,— the hogs already purchased by Grant be ing light and he having paid the full price for heavy hogs. 60 Rosenthal goes to his ware house, selects out all his light hogs, enough to load twoor three wagons; gets some farmers who hail woodrneks on their wagons to load on* the hogs drive out of town by another street and come in on the main road to the corner wlieie Giant was buying.— Rovcnctml meets them there by another street commenced bidding against Grant, ami after bidding toe pork up to the lull val ue of the heavy pork it was sold to Grant. But the joke or “sell” being too good to keep it was not half an boor before every body nearly was splitting with laughter to see how the Jew had sold the Galena pork buyer; which so disgusted Grunt that he went home that night und wai- never seen in Bellevue after that. Anil that transaction so embittered him against the old tribes of Israel that 1 doubt whether he could now be recon ciled, and this is undoubtedly the whole cause of the expulsion of Jews from his camp.— Vhicago Times, Influencing- the Votes of tlie Senators on tlic Impeachment.

Theotherduy there was a dinnei party given by a New York con tractor, at which it was understood that Ben Butler would be a guest. Some dis loyal wag without'the feur of Congress before him, got hold of Tom, fed him N übe’ully, and put him up to a piece ol outrageous and treasonable tomfoolery.— After the guests were served the host <aid ; “ That will do, Tom, you can go.” Tom did not go. Observing that his or ders was not obeyed, the contractor re peated, “ I told you to go, Tom ; if I want you, I’ll ring for you.” Still Tom hung about the door, and did not retire. At last, very much worried at hfs contuma cy, Nesv York turned upon Ethiopia, and -aid sternly, attracting the whole com pany, “I’ve told you twice to leave the room, and I must be obeyed, .or put you out myself.” Tom approached the table humbly, and replied in a subdued tone, nut loud enough lobe heard by all present, “ If you please, sub, —with submission—l can’t go, I’m obliged to stay." “The b—ll you are! What for?” “ Well, sub, if I most iell you, I must. I axes Mars Butler’s pardon, but I’m ’sponsible for de spoons.

Butler—Produce It and the papers con tained in the envelope. Witness here is the money. The pa pers you can’t have. Butler received the package of money and directed the witness to. leave the room, which he declined, saying he was responsible for the money and was not willing to leave it in Butler’s hands. ' Butler threatened hia arrest. Witness denied his power to do bo. Butler proceeded to count the money and said : “ I find here $10,000.” Witness—l’ll swear.l handed you $l7, 000. Butler— Then you had better count it yourself. Witness—lf you will raise that news paper I think yon will find a thousand dollar bill under it.

The address was fully worthy of the occasion, was written in a forcible and perspicuous style, and abounded in vigorous, original thought.

No fun is more tickling, or leaves behind it less regret. No history is purer, as a whole, than fireside histo ry, and none lives longer or more lov ingly in remembrance. Ho who cannot look forward with yearning desires to fireside enjoyments, gs the staple enjoy ments of his life, is greatly to be blamed ; for the fireside has Its duties to be done, ns well as its pleasures to be realized.— They who make light of its sanctities, or who rise up in rebellion against its spirit, or who wantonly disturb its pence, or who poison its springs with jealousies within the most charmed circle, or who profane it by aught that savors of selfish ness or despotism, break the spell which environs it, and forfeit its rewards. It should be the altar to which we' bring our daily sacrifices—the turtle doves and young pigeons of home life—to offer them to the genius of domestic unity. Tbeie is no place where we are more bound to “ mind the things of others” aaourown, or more gracefully display affection in trifles, or can, with more profit study to please others than ourselves. Forgetful ness of fireside duties indicates, to say the least, a deficiency of disinterested love. A man cannot be truly judged by what he does before the world. All man ner of selfish motives may urge him to wear in that broad theatre the dress of sanctity, or courage, or courtesy, or pa tience, or consideration, “that he may be seen of men.” But it is at his own fireside that he best shows himself when ho casts aside the garments of pretense, and puts on the slippers of natural hab its. Wijkthe is there and then he proba bly is in reality for his heart is en disha bille, and commends itself, or otherwise, by Its own proper qualities, unveiled and undisguised. .

A piece of new or ttmised sponge is cutinto small pieces, which are smeared with butter and plac ed within roach of the rats, next to the dish of water. The rats eat the sponge, and becoming thirsty, drink the water, which swells the sponge, and in a short time kills the animals, which are found lying dead all around.
