A Washington correspondent of the

prevailed two yeas ago. At that time

If it hadn't been for the good sense of
Mrs. Speak I wouldn't now be writing j

is to have a good . wife, and oh golly !
what a curse it is to have a bad one. I
don't believe that all the matches are
made in heaven, by the . Good Man. I
ain't a church member I guess I ought
to be, though ; the preachers say that all
ought to be. I have a kind of a leaning
toward the Methodist church in some
things, and in some things I lean in an
other direction ; but on the question of
making a match between man and woman,
I lean far out toward that old Methodist
who traveled nearly all over creation on
foot, and made appointments years ahead,
and was put in jail like a thief, by them
tarnel Southern fellows, because he said
tnat slavery was not godly and was
wrong. Them fellows always Kukluxed
a fellow if he didn't gee when they said
"Gee," and the only thing abont Andy'
Jackson that wasn't perfect was that he
didn't straighten them fellows more ; but
you know that he hadn't the chance. If
he now stood in Grant's place he'd fetch
them np a whooping. Dow, was that old
preacher's name Lorenzo Dow. ; I've
got his life in the house that's where I
! read all about him. I'vo got the Pil-
grim's Progress in the house, also, and I
tell you mighty good books they are, if
the one is a dream.
Well, preacher Dow didn't believe that
all the matches were made in heaven
If
they had been, he said, they'd been all
good, and smooth, and happy. lie
thought that the Devil made a good
many, and I think so, too. I'm a Dow
man on that score. Somehow or other I
think that Mrs. Speak and me made our
own match. 1 tell you it was a mighty
good thing forme,

She had some money
and lots of good sense, which is a good
deal better, und if she does give me fury
sometimes, I just say nothing, and the
storm then soon blows over. The other
evening just about dark, after I had come
in from the cornfield and was npstairs,
she called in a very excited way and told
me that there was a light np towards Mif
flin, and she believed that the other part
of Mifftin was burning down. Of course
I looked out as soon as I could, and soon
saw that Mrs. Speak was wrong. I saw
that it was the ''Northern lights." After
we went into the honse and got down to
supper, we bad a general talk about the
fire. We talked of the mighty big fires

Mrs.
Speak's eyes for poor Mis Lot,
who was turned into a stone for looking
at the fire. That seemed hard ; but ii
was right she was told not to look.
It does my heart good to hear of how
the people do send the sufferers help. If
anything will open the purse strings great
(ires will, and they are the best things to
make quiet people talk that I know of.
Yon know that last winter our quiet and
great working Senator stood up in his

his presence, and made a great and elo-
qnent speech of a quarter of column of
a newspaper, on the great fire in Mifflin

I keep a scrap book, and I have the
speech in that book. Fires will make
any one talk ; and now that I am talk
ing abont the fires. I just want to say to
you fellows at Mifflin and I don't want
you fellows to think hard of it either ; if
I wasn't your friend I wouldn't talk so
plain ; friends always talk plain that
yon fellows had better not let another
such a big fire break out in your town,
fur the Legislature won't do nothing for
you after that fight abont the $20,000.
(eel over the news that I got to-day as I
passed the' Seven Stars. A distinguished
citizen of this township told me there
that the Jackson Democrats joined the
Republicans in New York and gave the
Tammany ring as big a licking as Andy
Jackson gave the British soldiers that
licked the great Napoleon, ne said that
it was a regular New Orleans licking,
and that the ring candidates were all
killed by the paper bullets that fairly
rained down on the ring, excepting
Tweed I think that's his name ; if it
isn't, just put the right name in, the
boss of the ring, who was elected to the
State Senate. I said to my friend, the
distinguished Greenwooder, " Glorious
election ! The Republic is once more
saved from the danger that threatened
it " ' The people are all right, even in
New York, when they know of danger.
The hearts of the people are always
right, if they understand what's what.
I tell you that, though they have kicked
Tammany out, they dou't realize how
much good they have done ; and I far
ther tell you that if Tammany had car
