Tbe latest dispatches regarding tbe
Eastern question represent tbe Greek Gov
ernment as King more disposed toAisten to
the protests of the other European jpojwrs
than heretofore. The popular feeling
against Turkey is said to have forced tbe
Greek authorities into tho position they
pow occupy, This warlike sentiment is
undergoing -a chango, n,nd it is thought
that i;' the Sultao wjll .grant lime for fur
ther negotiation war rfiuyr.be averted. The
report that Russia hod sett,to Prussia an
unfavorable note xccatdiug he Kas'ero

TnE Columbus Cr!i, a leading Demo
cratic paper in Ohio, has an article layiiu
down the basis for the reconstruction of the
Democratic party. It is to cancel tbe
bonds, .abclish ,the legal tender., abolish the
banks, abolish the tariff, abolish ail internal
revenue duties, ana support the govern
me.it by a direct tax levied on the property
of tbe country. It declares the previous
;uonotary and financial schemes of the
Democratic party all wrong, and that the
only way to restoration ,?f tbe party is by
coming back to these true Democratic
principles. And la vdejv of tV'ir advent
it declares it the duty of tho pros of the
country to warn tbe widows and orphans
and poor people ot tbe country
to disposo of all the bonds in their
posession, for " repudiation is inevitable."
This is Democracy simmered down to what
in practice it would have shown itself to
be. Only the defeat of Seymour and Blair
prevented the consummation of its ruinous
schemes.
Fowls in the Horse Stable. Fowls
should never be permitted to have access
to the horse stable, nor the feed room, nor
the hay-mow, 1 heir roost shon'.d been,
tirely separate from the sUble, so that they
rnay not always be ready to slip in when
ever a door is opened, and that the vermin
whioh invest poultry may not reach
horses or cattle. It is a well known fact
that fowls of all kinds frequently drop a
very sordid, offensive, viscious odor, and
when allowed to go on the hay mow, or iu
the feeding room, or anywhere in the barn,
they damage more fodder than we are
Font to suppose We would as soon allow
fowls to live in the kitchen, and hop on
the dinner table while we are eating, and
to roost on in beadstead, as 4o have free
access to tho horscstable and bain. Some
horses are always afraid of fowl,, and when
cue enters the manger, or rack, the timid
hordes will immediately surrender their
entire right, however hungry they might
be, to those lawless marauders Exchange.

Tell Youa Mother. I wonder how

notes and cart at vmrei with young men,
who make fun of them and their pictures,
speaking in a way that would make their
cheeks burn with shame it they heaid it,
AH this, most iperedulous and romantic

they gaie at your fresh young faces ad.
miringly, and send or give you charming
verses and boquets. No matter what
" other girls do, don t you di it. School
'girl flirtations may end disastrously, as
many a foolish, vretched young girl could
tell you. Your yearnings for soma one to
love is a great need ot every wama& heart.
But there Is a time for everything. Don 'I
let the bloom and freshness of your heart be
vrusnea on in sniy mrtatiaas. And, above
all, tell your mother everything. Never
be ashamed to tell her, who should be your
best friend and confident, all you think and
feel. 1 1 k W very strange that so many
young girls will tell every person but
motbe. that which is most important that
she should know. It is very a&j that in
different persons should know more about

The old Wilmot District gave Grant a

nearly equal to the Republican mnjority in

count of counties formerly all strongly
Democratic, until Judge Wilmot conquered
them to our faith. We believe this Dis
trict is unanimously for Mr, Grow for

A Queer Hymn Book. A good joke
is told of a preacher in Nebraska, who had
dined with a friend just before afternoon
services. As it happened, this friend occa
sionally luxuriated in asmilo of the ardent,
and sometimes carried a morrocco covered
flask in his overcoat pocket.
By mistake the miuistertook the friend's
overcoat for his own on his departure, and,
walking into the pulpit, began the exercises
without doffing the garment, it being rather
chilly In the room.
Looking very ministenaly over bis con
gregation from behind his spectacles, he
began drawing Irom his pockety as he sup
posed, his hymn book, with the introductory
remark that the congregation would sing
fronj a particular page which he had se
lected before band.
The minister hell the supposed book up
in lull sight ot the congregation, and at
tempted to open it sideways, but it was no
go.
The situation was realized in a moment,
but alas ! too late.
His reverence was dumbloun led, the
audience giggled, and the whole scene was
made ludicrous by a fellow in the back part
of tho congregation, not nltogothar too
sober, who drawled out :
Say, Mister, kin we all (hie iinc in
that 'ar hymn ? "
It has bee a distinctly and officially
