HOW TO SAVE HONEY.
The times are hard ; you'd like to ooxw
How you may save your Dollars J
The way to do it I will show,
It you will read what follows.
A man who lived not far ftom hero,
Who worked bard at his trade,
But bal a household to support.
That squandered all he made.
I met biui onee, aayi be, "my friend,
I look threadbare and rough ;
I've tried to gel myself a suit,
Bat can't ssre up enough."
Says I, ay friend, how much have you?
I'llull you where to go,
To get a suit that's aound and cheap.
At Vrtl.Nii'S and Cj.
He took what little be lad saved.
And went to ltelxeustciu .V UrolherV,
And there he got a handsome suit,
For half he paid to others.
Now he is home, ke looks so well
And their effect is such,
That when tbey take their daily meals,
The j don't eat half so much.
And now he finds on Saturday night
With all their wants supplied ;
That he has money left to spend.
And some to lay aside.
His good success, with cheerful faile,
Ue gladly tolls to all;
If you d save Monev, go and buy.

The Intendment.
Itatlflritlon or the Constitutional Amend,
mcii a tondJtion" of KeNtoratioit.
. From tbe New York World.
"Who control tho Kcpublicun part y,
tho IlaJicnls or tho Coimorvatives, like
Mr. iinymond, who havo slunlc back
to it 1 , Some of the Conservatives Bay
tho constitutional amendment is a
"'ondit;on" of Restoration. . Here is
what t'A; real rulers, tho thorough
"Radicausaj" : "
From tbe Independent.
''Yfe know ltorsonally every promi
nent member of Congress, and we
kiiov that the leaders do not mean to
aduit the unadmitted States on the
me:o adoption of tho amendment.
Mrreovcr, we know personally the
leuiiug Radicals of tho Republican
prty outbids of Congress, and we
know that they havo no intention of
making the amendment thchnal meas
ure of admission. To sa-, therefore,
as the National Committee pay, that,
on condition of adopting the amend-1
inent, as Tennessee adopted it, "the
door stands invitingly open" for the
ten other States, is to make a promise
to the mr to break it to tho hope ,
To say, with tho Syracuse Republican
Convention, or with the address of
the National Republican Committee,
that Congress will restore tho ten
waiting Slates if these States adopt
tho amendment, is to misrepresent
tho issue.
"Slavery was not abolished under the
mild influence of temptation, but un
der tho strong influence of compul
sion; anJ the negro's enfranchisement
will not be achieved by bach tempta
tion, but by etich compulsion. Ac
cordingly, the Radical party, Xorth
and Souib, white and black, can as
sent to no reconstruction bhort of im
partial eufVragc. .
".No IcaJing Republican in Congress
moans to admit the ten waiting Slates
simply on the adaption of the consti
tutional amendment, Thcso States
are to bo admitted on no conditions
short of tho equal political rights of
their loyal citizens, without Uilinc
tion of race. A reconstruction of the
Union on any other basis would be a
national dishonor. Until tho rebel
States can comu Ltuk on this b;isis.
they shall not come back at all."
Mr, JJoutwell, ol Massachusetts, one
of tho -Star-Chamber Committee of
Fifteen, and a candidate for re-election
to Congress, in a m-otit speech, said
If the present Congressional plat
form expressed tho whole claim to be
demanded ol tho South, it was one
that ho would not support, Jt was
well as far as it went, but it did not
go far enough. Thero would be no
safety if the South camo in and thec
demand were only complied with.
Our only security in tho future was in
endowing the colored loyal people of
tho South with tho elective franchise,
and the speaker said ho did not in
tend to vote for tho admission of ei
thor of the ten States not at present
represented in tho Congress of tho
L nited States until impartial Futiragc
was secured to all the people of those
Su(og.
t
. "Ho believed that wlien"tho Thirty-
ninth Congress assembled in Decem
ber next, tliero would not bo found
five men who were identified with the
Republican party who would not be
in lavor of impartial suffrage in evcrj
one of these ten States as a condition
precedent to their admission."
Mr. lioutwell is ono ol tho J.a.licnl
lenders of Congrc??, and knows what
he aflirms in this matter to bo true;
and nil tho Radical rulers in the Rump
have tsaid the same thing in word, and
in tlccd also, when they refused to
pass tho bill reported April SO, ma
king the amendment a "condition."

Kit Carson, the oracle of tho West
ern plains and mountains, has lately
been visited by a correspondent of the
Cincinnati Commercial, to whom he
communicated tho following ii'terest
ing reminiscences :
All tho Indian, 'hunters and trap
pers rido with short stirrups. I am
almost bow-legged from it. It is more
important to tho Indian than the white
iiiun, as It ts only by am ot the stirrup
hecan whift his position, bangingdown
on one side so to conceal all his
body but bis Jcj. Ilia leg is all you
have to firo at, aa he throws himself
on the side buttocks, or around the
ueck of the horse. On this account,
also, they hang tho stirrups well for
ward. Some one referred to Carson's inti
mate knowledge of Indian strategy.
b- Why, yes, I am up to a good many
of their tricks, but they looled me
once thoy fooled we pretty bad that
time, I'll tell you about it. It was
in let me sco yes, 8;Jf. There were
six of us hunters out after buffalo, up
in the Snake country. We had made
a pretty good hunt, and came into
camp at night, intending to start in
next morning w ith our hunt. Wt'.I,
we camped. Had a good many dogs
with us, pome of them good dogs.
Tl,.. I ..! ..,! .. ,t....l ....st tio
heard wolves. As 1 lay by the hre, 1
saw one or two big wolves sneaking
about camp ono of them quite in it.
Cerdon wanted to lire, b'it I would I
not lc t him, fur fear of hitting buinc
of the dogs.
I had just a little suspicion that
tin; wolves might be Iwdiai.s, but when
I saw them turn short round, ami
heard the snap of their teeth when
tho dogs came too tloso to one of
them, f felt easy then, and made sure
it was a wolf. Tho Indian fooled nic
that time. Confound the rascal'' bo-
coming animated ''confound the ras
cal, doyou think he didn't have t-voold
bufl'al'j bones in his baud that ho crak
ed together every time ho turned to
snap at tho dogs ? Well, by and ly
we dozed oil" asleep, and it wasn't
long before I was awoko by a crash ,
and a blaze. I jumped strait for the
mule and held 'em. If the Indians
had been smart they'd a had us all but
they run as soon as they firod. I hey
killed but one ot us poor Davis. lie

the Snakes, and came on us by acci
dent. They tried to waylay us i.ext
morning, but we killed three of 'etn,
including their chief.
"When I first, went over into Cali
fornia in l'H, the. valleys were full of
Indian tribes. Indians were thick
everywhere, and I saw a great deal of
some largo and flourishing tribes.
When I was thereagain in 113, they
had all disappoare land w hen I inquir
ed about certain tribes I had seen on
the spot, was told by the people living
there that they had never heard of
them." '
"I,lar I'.eaii" Cloaks. The new
cloaking for the coining winter sea
sons are all of tho Polar bear order,
lulled half an inch thick, and very
soft and warm. They arc not adapted
to either round cloaks or tight-fitting
garments, and can only be made into
coats or looso paletots, anu oniy
trimmed with tho most extravagant
of buttons.
The latest fashion in buttons is to
represent upon them horses' heads,
dogs' heads, and also sometimes the
whole animal. The bear, having re
ceived its share of pntronago among
the rest, has triven tho name to the
shaggy coats and sacks of thick, white
and I light tufted cloth, which are hence
forth to bo known as "Polar bear"
cloaks.
Thcso clotl9 nro very expensive,
815 and SIS per yard, but they are
wide, and so, fortunately, it does not
take many yards to make a cloak.
The "Alpine" cloaking is beautifiil ; it
is 01 thick, white wool, or striped in
eolors, blue or ccrite, and is used only
for opera cloaks, or in all white, or
carriage paletots.
