'"1 ho Grand Army of the Republic ha met with many vicissitudes since its organi zation. It would seem u.itural, alter the close of tho war, that men who lud enlisted togetucr, who had marched together, who i i . . i . .i i ... . , ijuu cncauipco. lojicincr. w no loiiiriit toel ti-1 cr, and who ut last came out together to see the flag gloriouslj triumphant, should seek to become united iu one glorious .r'r mizv tion. They had many reasuis d !e t.nited. Iikc many of my comrades L entered the sir my a boy being only nineteen years of nre, and came out a grown man. Many of my com rades bleep around Fort Done 'sou, There we taught the rebels that one Suu'.herti n a'i with a cornstalk sould uot whip five Yan kees. They arc lying along the Tennessee liver. They nre lying on tho bloody fields of Shiloh. Following (J rant in his campaign nlttig the banks o!" .Ston river, they also lie there. Wc sdtould revere their memory. And now since the war has closed, it was well that wo should gather together and form an organization. We came together, however, in uo rpnnrtisan spirit. When this Grand Army ol the Republic was or gauized wc did not say that the oiliecr.' alone should cnnie in. It. became a level institution. Xo nia'ti r whether n man w.v a private or a jir U.'Lenl. Wc did ooi osk whether that man entered toe army i Democrat or Republican. Wc did not asl at what utcr he kneels. Wc applied onbj one test, end that is that he went into tin army with a brave ni''tic. -We did no! ask to what nationality he belonged. We care not w hether he is a ou of Jacob oi the duwii-trodded sou of Hiru. Wc grjsj his hand and call himfiii-nd. Applause. We have no liisiinetion of color ; wc have . it. v ... . . no national naircu in tins g:a;iu orgrmza. tun, The ciily lest is loyalty. Vn plausc It is vrvv strange t! at utter th war closed we liad r.ot mote meuibeis in our ranks. Our olje-nt in funning the Grand Army of the Republic was lifit to place am members of 'hat army in a political position Rut, if we. see a numied soldier, ii wc so a starving orphen, it wc see a widow sfrug Hug to uiaiutuiu herself and family, we wil lend a helping hand. This is our grand mission. We arc gathered together in one glorious brotherhood, not only to perpetu ate the memories of the past, but to do no. blc deeds iu the future. Our organization is not a political one. Wc have nothing to do with political organisations. No matter to what party a mau may belong ho can become a member of this organization. In the first place "our object is to become good law-abiding citizens, and id the next to be ready, should treason again raise its head to again enter the army. Wo arc now en- teiing npon a grand mission. Let no mem bcr be faithless to his duty. Lend a help kg baud to all who may ask for aid. Show the people that you have a worthy object in covuiug together, and in being members of fneh a glorious organization. About SI'), 000 citizcus of this State left their homes to battle for their country. About 270,000 men were permitted to return to their homes, leaving 74,000 who perished upon the battlc-fiold. Let us gather together as many of the liviug as wo can, so that we may do a still greater work. I will aid you all I can, and hope that the Grand Army of the Republic will stand as the old army of Pennsylvania did in days gone by. A MOST DETEltMlAED &L1CILE Chicago. Jan. 27. Mrs. Harold of Devilda, Jo Davis County, Illiuois, recently became insane on religious matters, and ou Tuesday morning, iu the ubseDce of her husband, she obtained a razor and attempt ed to cut her throat, when her daughter 6natcbed it from her aud rau toward an outhouse to hidoit. The mother overtook her daughter, and after a struggle regained the razor, and was about to draw it across her throat the second time, when another daughter. 15 vears old, placed her haud there, and received a teuiblo gash, 'ihe mother then succeeded in cutting her throat tsffectually and died tdu.Oet instantly A L OA U WALK. In 1732, Thomas 1' enn contracted with T!edyuscuing and some others for a title to all the land in Pennsylvania, to bo taken off by a parallel of latitude from any point as far as the Lest of three men could walk in a day, between sunrise and sunset, from a certain chestnut tree, at or near Rristol, iu a nnriwest direction. Care was taken (o select the must capable for such u walk The choice fell on James Yates, a native (J Rucks county, n t:ill slim man, of much agility nnd speed of foot; Solomou Jen dings, a 3 nn Ue o, very stout uud strong; Rdward Marshall, a native of Rucks coun ty, a noted hunter, chaiuearrier, &e., u large luavy-set, and strong-boned mau. 'J he day was i.ppointcd and the chain piuns notifi -d. The people collected ut wiiat they thought the first twenty miles ol the Duiham road, to sec them pass. First came Vntcs, stepping as light us a feather accompanied by T. lYnu and attendants on horseback. Aft.r hint, but out of sight, ramc Jennings with a Mronir, steady step ; and not lar behind, Kdward Marshall, aj- parcutly careless, swing'i'g a hatchet in hi htnd, ui.d eating a dry biscut. Rets ran in favor of Yates. Marshall took biscuits to support his stomach, and cariied a hatchet to swing iu his hands alternately, that tin' action in bis aims should buhinee that in his legs, us hs was filly determined to beat theotheis, or die in the attempt. lie said he first saw Yatis in decetiding Durham Creek, aud gained on hi.n. There lie saw Yutes sitting on a log, very tired : presently he fell off uud gave up (lie Walk . Marshall kept on, aud belorc he reached the Lehigh. overtook and pas.-ed Jennings waded the iver'at Rethhhcm hurried on faster b where Nazareth stands, (o (he Wind Gap. That was as fat us the path had been masked for lactn te walk on, aud there was collection of peupU; waiting to see if any ol'thc three would reach it by sunset. He only halted for the surveyor to give him u poekrt compass, and slated again. Three Liidiui runners were scut ufter him to see f he walked it fair, and how far lie wcut. lie then passed to the right of the Focono Mountain, the Indians finding it difficult to keep him in s lit, till he leaelieu fctiil Water and he would have gone a few miles fuither bui for tho water. Here he mark ed a tree witnessed by the three Indians I he distance he walked between sun and. sun not being on a straight line, nnd aboil' hirtN inili s of ii throuh woods, was estit;;a ted to be from Oec bundled and ten to one hundred and twenty miles, lie thus woi the great jiize. which was five hundred nouiius in :i.oi:cv. anJ live Minorca ceres of-h'iid anywhere in the purchase.

Whether her death was the result ef acci dent or violence is as yet undetermined. Her husband was urrcsted on suspicion, be ing found in tho burning room. Ho sta ted this morning that his wifo aud himself had both been drinking early last evening, nnd (hat he had gone to bed and fallen asleep, leaving his wile sitting in front of the fire, lie was aroused by the stifling smoke, and saw his Wife's clothes and the chair in a blaze. He sprang tip and died to wrap carpel about her. lie did not know whether she was dead or not. Just then Adams says he was put in custody nnd taken lo the watch house, lie says his conviction is that his wife did it herself to put. an end to her life. To him she had several times said she was going to kill hcisclf. Fur the past filleen years she has hern drinking nunc or less. He had been married to her about ten years. Adams is al out fifty years of age and a n an of sonic property. Cnclk's NtiiiiKU. An incident told by a Toledo paper forcibly illustrates thesueial changes which have inaiked the history ol our country during the past ten years. A poor ragged family on their w.iy (o Chi cpgo wee detained ut Toledo and uranteil permisssun lo spend (ho ti'ght ut the Sta tion louse. In the morning, as t hoy were leaviug their wretched lodgings a prosj or ous colored citizen by the m ine of Davis happened to call at the Station-IIuuse, when he met the company of begjing trav. ers.

Davis was thunderstruck by this exehiiua tiou, and, with that courtesy which ch.irac tcrizes a Sous hern negro iu the. pr sense ol I. is master, made his obedience lo the wo man and asked her to explain.
