One evening, in the curly part of winter,
the door Lull run" with energy, nml the
servant nnnmincecl a mnn who w ished to nee
mo. A "nrin" is nno thing with n ervtint,
a "tpntlcniiin'' nnothcr, nnd n person some
thing dilTeront from either. The mnn etood
in 1 1 iu hull, but ! wondered why hu hud not
l.een culled n gcntlemnn. I wns puzzled
where to placn him myself. Itis diess wns
very neat, but plain nnd rather course. I Its
linen, that biulu of refinement', whs while,
in t'rfect order, nnd almost elegant. Every
thing about him teemed substantial; but
nothing gnvc me a tluo to his position in
life. In all outward seeming he wns simply
n num. When lie spoke to me, his address t
was ainiple, t-lenr, direct, and with a certain !
air tf self reliance. . )
"Doetcr," lie mid, "I want you to come
and see tnv child. AVc fear he is threatened j
w ith croup."
1 put on my hat, nnd preparer', to accom
pany h;.m; for if the case were as lie suppos
ed, there was no lime to lose. In this
disease u single hour may make a life's dit
I'ri er.ee.
In a moment we were in the street, nnd
walking briskly up one of our broad avenues.
I he child, he said, had been playing nut of
doors, had eaten heartily at supper, gone to
sleep, nnd waked up a short lime since very
hoarse, with a clinking cotigli. J lie case ,
was a pritty clear one, nnd I hurried my j
walk still more, nnd in a feu- moments we j
were tit ll.e door. A went up up, up
to the fourth story. The last flight of steps I
was carpeted, nnd a smart lamp ut the lop
lighted us it p. An excellent and very dura
ble kind of mat lay at the door. You will j
see in lime why I yivc these particulars.
I entered the door, and wns welcomed by j
a rat hi r pn-lly nnd remarkably tidy woman, j
who could h ive I ecu nobody in the world
bul the wife ol the infill who summoned me. '
'I mil glad you have come so soon,'' she I
said, in a soft, pure, accent. (-Little Will-j
i.r.u seems so distressed that he can hardly ;
breathe;" and the next ino-.r.cnt, as we pass
eltlno gli a narrow passage to wherein
I iv, I heard the tintnistakablu cronpy sound
t'.iat jt s'ly carries such terror to the pari nl's
heart.
' Is it the croup, doctor?" asked the father
with a voice of emotion, us I bent over the
child a fine boy, three years of age.
'It H certninly the croup, and a pretty
liolent attack. How long is it situe jou
thought him sick?"'
"Not above nn hour," was the culm reply.
; It was made Calm by a firm self control. 1
looked at the mother. She was very pale,
i bul did not trtt?t herself to speak.
'Then there is probably but little danger,'
' I said; '-but we have something to do. Have
ymt the water hcrcf"
. The husband went to what, seemed n
e'oset, opened two doors, nnd disclosed a
1 neat pine but king tub, supplied with Croton.
This was beyond my l opes; but 1 had no
lime to wonder. The little fellow was in a
high fever, an I hd oHntr for every breath.
Taking him I'iMii his little crib, where he
lay on a nice hair nvitlress. lit for a prince
to sleep on, I took olf his e'eati night clothes,
stood him in the bath-tub, und made his
father pom full upon his neck and chest
three pails of cold water, while! rubbed
him briskly with my hand. He was then
w ipid dry, and rubbed until his whole body
was in a Ihitiie. Then I wrung n large towel
, out of cold water, and put it annum ins
i throat, and then wrapped him in blanket.
The brave little fello'v I""l borne it till
I w ithout coiiw.liiliit, as if ho understood that
I under his f.ither's eye no harm could come
i to mm. In fifteen minutes niter be was
wrapped in the blankets he was in a proluso i
p.Ti-piration, in n sound slumber, und breath-
ing freely. The danger was over sm rapid
is this disease, nnd so cosily cured. '
Happiness had shed a serene light upon j
the countenance of the father, nnd thrown .
over t lie mother's face a glow of beauty. ' I (
looked upon ihem, nnd was more than ever j
pu..led w here to place lh'-ni. Theie were
no in ii ks of high birth or superior breeding, I
not the fhudow of decayed gentility about I
them. It was rather the reverse, as if they
were workinp- from a low rank to a higher
I looked "around the room. It wits

and a dollar upkee hud framed them. - The 1
floor had a carnet that seemed to match
lie smiled and held out his hand, which
showed the unquestionable marks of honest
toil.
"You are ft mechanic?" I said, willing to
know more of him.
'Take that," suid he, placing n two dol
lar note in my hnnd, with not to be-refuscd
nir, "nnd I w ill gratify ;',ur curiosity; for
there is no uso pretending thut you ure not
a little curious."
There was a hearty, respectful freedom
about this that wus irresistible. I put the
note in my pocket, and the man, going to a
door, opened it into a closet of moderate
size, nnd displayed the bench and tools of n
shoemaker.
"Vou must be tin extraordinary workman,
said I, looking around the room, whiih
seemed luxurious; but which, ns I looked at
each item, I found that it cost very little.
"Xo, nothing txlrii. 1 barely manage to
earn a little over a dollar a tiny. Mary helps
some. Willi the housework to do, and our
boy to look after, she earns enough to muke
our wages uverngo eight dollars u week. We
began with nothing we live us you see."
Al! this comfort, this respectability, the
almost luxury, for eight dollars a week t I
expressed my surprise.
"1 should bo very sorry if w e spent so
mill h." said he. "We have not only man
aped to live on that, but we have something
laid up in tip in the savings bank."
"Will you have the goodness," said 1
"just to explain to mo how yon do it V for 1
was real I v nnxiotis to know how a shoe
maker and his wile, earning but eight dol
lars a week, could live in comfort and clc
'gance, nnd lay up money.
! I took a chair which lie handed inc. Wo
.were seated, nnd his wife, after going to
I listen to the soft and measured breathing of
I little Willie, sat down to her sewing.
"My name is William Carter. My father
i died when I was vomit:, and 1 was I-ouml
out nonrentiee to a shoemuker. with

as boys generally do at school ; anil as I was
fond of reading", I made the most of my
spare time, and the advantages of the Ap
nrenlice I.ibrarv. Probably the book that
helped me most was the sensible writings
of William Cobbctt. Follow ing his exam- j

"I was hardly out of my time when I fell
in love with Mary there, whom some people
think very pretty, but whom I know to be
very good."
Mary looked up with such a bright, lov
ing smile, ns to fully justify "some people"
in their notion.
When I had been one yearn journeyman,
nnd laid up a few dollars, (for 1 had a strong

nil, is a mill which cost mc twelve shillings.
It grinds all my grain, gives mo the
freshest and most beautiful meal, and saves
toll and profits. This is a barrel of wheat.
I buy the best nnd am suic it is clean and
good. It costs less than three cents a pound;
und n pound of wheat n day, you know, is
food enough for any man. We make it in
to bread, mush, pies nnd cakes. Here is a
bos of sugar, nud this is a butler jar. We
take a quart of country milk a day; I buy
the rest of our living by the box or barrel,
where I enn get it the cheapest. Making
wheat eaten as mush or bread, and nil
made without boiling and potatoes, or
hominy, or rice, the staph', you can easily
see that a dollar a week lor provisions is
not only ample, but allows of a healthy and
utmost luxurious variety. For I he rest, we
eat greens, vegetables, fruit and berries in
their season. In thcauiuincr we have at raw
berries and peaches, as soon ns they are
ripe and good. Maty will get up n dinner
from these materials, nt the cost of a shil
ling, better than the whole bill of lure at
the Aslor House."
I was satisfied. Here was comfort, in
telligence, taste, and a modest luxury, all
enjoyed by a hun.blo mechanic who knew
how to live at the cost I have mentioned.
How much ii-eless i oniplaiiiing might be

I never shook a man or woman by the

We h.ivo received from tlic Hon. John j
Cessna, Chairman of the I'nion Slate Cen-
trul Committee, a copy of a very able ad- I
dress from that body to the people of the j
Stale, on the issues of the ctmiiiiign, which I
is too hmg lo enable r.s to jive it entile,
We make room however, f.jr the following
extract :
! motive to be snvinii.) we
li.!ir,li.l lit l.or father's and she bound shoes
; for the shop where I worked. We lived n J confidently believed that they will fail
i few weeks ut her home ; but it was not our
j home the home we w anted; so we deterniiti- j
I ed to set up housekeeping. It wns rather
j a small set up, but we uuide it answer. I ;
spent a week in house hunting. Some wcie j
j too dear, some too shabby. At last I found i
I t'.ie pl.ice. It was new ni:.l clean, high ami
airy, and I thought it would do. 1 got it i
i for'ti ty dollars u jear; and though the'
' ruits all around have advanced, our land-I
party recognizes the services of the soldier
declares that the war was commenced by
the rebels that peace wns the result of the
courage and heroism of the Union urmy
that the cause in which ho fought was holy
and sacred, nnd that honor, glory nnd pros
perity to the country, and not "debt, dis
grace nnd slaughter," ure the legitimate
fruits of his toil.
19. Because the Union men expressed the
hope that our troops might soon be able to
conquer the South, even by their exhaustion
nnd want of food, those leaders of the new
Democracy declared that "we could never
conquer the South," mid that "ihey hail
more to eat in the South than we hud
in the North."
20. Because when rebels were starving
our brave soldiers by the hundred at I.ibby,
Belle Island, Ani'tersonville nnd elsewhere,
these same leaders excused or mitigated the
crime by declaring than "they fed our pri
soners as well as they did their own men ;"
that "owing to ti e unconstitutional block
ade of the tyrant Lincoln, they could not
obtain a sufficiency of food.
1'IIKHIDUNT JOHNSON AND TI1K Ofl'OSITIOX.
The opposition have not been ta consist
ent in their couive towards President John
son as they hae on the subject of war.
Prior to his rcnomination they abused, villi-
' lied nnd denounced him. From the time
his nomination until the election no
epithets were too coarse. Prom the inaugu
ration until I lie death of President I.ineiln
they continued in the same train. After
that they began to flatter then to approach.
When ho ordered the execution of the as
sassins they sent forth a loud howl of in
dignution. When he ordered a trial of the
Andersouville wholesale murderer, nnd talk
ed of trying Jcll'erson Davis, they were
about to give up in dispair. But now they
profess to grow a little more confident.
They indorse him in Maine and New York.
They ind.use him (provided lie will do as
they wish; in Pennsylvania. In 1803 they
spoke of him thus : Senator Lambei ton, Jle
cord of lbGJ. page :(!!); "But then he was
Andrew Johnson the Democrat. Now, how
ever, he has deserted his pot of duty in
Tennessee ; he is stultifying his past record ;
he has become a pensioner on power, and
a defender of the usurpations of Abraham
Lincoln ; und ho appears among us to day
as an ilinercnt peddler of Abolitionism."
Senator Wallace, page ;)7I : "During all the
existence of the rebellion, where is Andrew
Johnson? In the Semite of the United
Stall's, seeking protection for himself and
his fellows under the bayonets of the sol
diers of McClellan. .He is never found in
arms in defence of his Slate, or valiantly
lighting in defence of the liberties of his
people against the armed cohorts of the re
bellion. " Never, never!" Senator Clymer,
page :W7: "I sav, sir, that his (Johnson's)

Extraordinary efforts are being made by
our opponents to obtain the votes of our
fellow citizens recently returned from the
service of the country in the armv of the na
tion. In IIicm.- illorts t lie v slioubl, nni! it is siutcs. to that liosition was a usurpation ol

pally opposed to the Administration.
a. Becanse the friend of the Union cause
have always sustained and supported the
soldiers in -lie held, nnd the leader ot pre-
Andrew Johnson as an
night, the ruler nnd his hosts of subjects
followed them even into tne midst of the
Bed Sea. Our nation has sulTercd more
thnn all the plagues of Egypt. As the law
of primogeniture has been abolished among
ns, the deaths were not all of our first born,
but ticarly ono of every household ; yet
these deluded hosts, led nn by hard linrted
and wicked Phnrnoli, as leaders, nre still

nctt CANniPATKS.
Tor Auditor Uenenil we have presented
the nnme of Major Ueneral John F. Ilart
runft, of Montgomery county ; and for Sur
veyor General, that of Jacob M. Campbell,
of Cambria. As biographies of these two
Gentlemen have recently been published
and circulated among their feltow citizens,
it is only remarked here that they arc both
bravo and gallant soldiers, anil especially
qualified for a satisfactory discharge of the
duties of the respective officers for which
their fellow-citizens have nominated them.
IMPORTANT otf T1IK ISSfK.
It is not to be disguised that there is a
large number of persons, both at the North
and at the South, who have nc-t finally
abandoned the hope of the ultimate tri
umph of the principles of thc.lutc rebellion.
They hope to secure by tho success of their
viewsat the ballot box that which they fail
ed to accomplish by armed force. It may
depend upon the decision of Pennsylvania
on the 10th of October whether the war
shall prove at last, a failure w hether its
fruits are toonly "debt, disgrace and slaugh
ter," or whether it is to have substantial re
sults in the death nnd buriul of slavery,
State sovereignity and the right of secession.
It is a well cs'.alished fact that the contest
was long protracted by reason of the hope
and belief entertained by the South, that
they would receive aid. nnd sympathy from
the" North. It is now all-important to the
South that they should be assured that this
hope is fallacious, and that the North will
adhere unfalteringly to the doctrines, prin
ciples nnd views which carried them tri
umphantly through the four years of bloody
war. It is best to let them know, nt once
and forever, that their is no hope for the
final triumph of the doctrines and measures
for which they contended in the field.
We have seen that the men among us who
were first to urge upon the government to
hold the rebels in the light of bcligvrcnta
are now the first to strive to relieve them
from the consequences and penalties of their

their predictions that the "war would never
end," and "that the south could never be
conquered," are now most ready to insist
that tho war U over, nnd that its objects

rebels shall be instantly restored to all their

CoxsTAS-Ttxon.K, Aug. 23, 1803.
Constantinople has thrice before been vi
sited by tho Asiatic cholera, but tho forme
visitations have been of small imporlnucc fi
comparison with the present. 1
Fifty davs have pnssed since its first an
thenticnted appearance iu the city, and no'
less than fifty thousand persons "have bee.
swept into eternity by its ravages. It reach
ed its bight about August 6, w hen it is snp
posed that the deaths were not less thai
three thousand a day for eevcml days.
The published report of deaths in th
city hns never reached this point, but it i
known to oil that to prevent a general so.
nncontrnlablo panic, :tbese reports hav
been deliberately falsified. I have mad.
careful investigations upon this point, anc
am able to speak without fear of contradic
tion. Take ft single day for example, sini'
tho decline has commenced. On Augu.st 14
the tiSBciid returns, as actually made to tin
Grand Vizier and as registered in his ofllci
show the deaths on that day to have beet
1,08911 six times the number reported it.
the published bulletins.
These published statements make the
whole number of deahts only about 15,000
At the rate of August 14 this would givr
00,000 as tho real number of deaths, but
this estimate is too largo. Since the num
ber of deaths has fallen below a thou
sand a day, the ratio has been verj
much less.
Fifty thousand is a fair estimate, incltid
ing nil rjiiarters of the city the militay gar
rison and tho navnl contingent. More thai:
one hundred thousand persons besides havi
fled from the city. This number of deaths
in addition to those who have fled, in
population of a million, has changed the
city from a busy mart of trade to a city of
the dead and (lying. Whoie families Uu.vi,
been swept off in a day, and hundreds ol
houses left tenantless. I know several Kng
lish families vhc:o the father and nil tlu
children have died within a week. 1 know
of a laniily which consisted of a grandfather,
his son, his son's w ife and four children. No
cholera had appeared in their quarter ot the.
city; but suddenly it came, and in two days
left the old grandfather the sole living rep
resentative of tho family. Certain quarters
have suffered so severely that tho surviving
inhabitants have left their houses, their uc
buried dead everything not easily moved
and have fled in dismay to open fields
beyond the city.
At certain points dead bodies, in some
cases uncollitied and naked, have been liter
ally piled up by scores waiting transporta
tion to the burial places. One of tho
cholera hospitals on the old city wall next
the sea had a slide arranged down which
the dead bodies were shot into boats to be
buried in tho sea.
Two weeks ago one cnu'.d not gq into- th

thought that they might allow the old sub- 1

"the question with as much apparent zeal ,
th ns ever. With a full knowl
edge of the fact that negro suffrage and no- (
uro equality are not and could not possioiy j
be an issue in tho October contest, they are
makiii" extraordinary efforts to mislead and
deceive their fellowciti.ens into a contrary;
belief. They think that our hostility aud j
prejudices against tho negro aro so gteat, j
and that they have so often appealed to
these with some show of success, that it is
only necessary to n peat tho effort in order
to accomplish their designs. They tell you
that efforts are being mane 10 i-iuwuc
ne"ro, and to place the two races on an
equalitv. They seem to be very much out
strip them in the race of lite. Ihey tell
us that these negroes aro weuK, lgnoraui,
and inferior to the whites. If so it would
seem that they needed our help aud assist
ance to educate unl instruct them. The
only danger of equality we can see is, that
some white men, by continuing longer in
such a course ir argument, in utter disre
gard of truth, experience and history lor
the base purpose of reaching the prejudices
of the thoughtless may nt last succeed in
bringing themselves down to or beneath
the level of the negro. The timo was when

dinner ; 1
The first course consisted of n kind of !
squaro tower funned of slice of breast of
goose, and of a fish which tho 'Chinese call
"cow's head," with a largo dish of hashed
tripe, and hard eggs of a dark color, pro
served in lime. Next came grains of pick
led wheat and barley, shell full unknown
in Kit rope, enormous prawns, preserved gin
ger and fruits. All these aro eaten with
ivory chopsticks, which the guests bring
ui.ii ill. .in tin oi-iind occasions the th't
dish is birds' nest soup, which t-.n-ists of a
thick, gelatinous substance. Small cups are

Their taste resembles iiiai 01 on- ni"..,
fat turtle. Tho snails w ere followed by a
dish of tho flesh covering the ukull of stur
geons, which is very costly, as several heads
are required to make even a small dish.
Next was a dish of Bharks' fins mixed tip
with slices of pork, uud a crab salad; niter
these a stew of plums and other Iruit, the
acidity of which is considered a corrective
for the viscous fat of the fish; then mush
rooms, pulsor and duck's tongues, which
lust are considered the iu: phi ultm of Chi

-which tho Kmperor himself sends as a
