they are as sure of success, tbey say, as in

Editor Herald : Please find en
closed pifetal order for 3 for which give
me credit on my subscription tor the Her

friendly visit your paper has made as ev
ery week ; it is now established as a fami
ly necessity, giving us all the news from
old Somerset county tbat we could desire.
While I am what is called a conservative
Republican, and like to read such papers
as the Chicago Eteuing Journal, which.
you know, is a reliable conservative paper.
and wniie we must nave tne spice oi me
in our mental as well as oar natural tood,
the Herald furnishes that red-hot Re
publican spice that every conservative
needs in bis political tood. So your paper
is Aust what 1 need in my conservative
diet.
The holiday season has been joyously
observed in the West; and as we have
just emerged from the financial gloom and
depression ol tne last six years, and nave
entered into the sunlight ot great National
prosperity, it is well that every American
citizen should rejoice in view of such sig
nal bleasines. 1 be times tn the West are
all we could desire. The tamers are
prosper ag ; the markets art very steady.
buoyant ; trade is very good ; mechanics
are happy. We have had a very fine w ut
ter so tor, very little cold weather and no
sleighing, which is rather a disappoint
ment to tha young people whose greatest
enjoyment is in the winiM Mason.
1 will close by winning you a happy aad
prosperous new-year and many new sub

ald, and I hope the many who immigrate
from your county to the West will not for
get their old triend their county paper.

A very good story is told of Gen
Grant while he was being received
at Jacksonville FU., recently, lie
was driven from the depot on bis ar
rival at Jacksonville, to. he hotel; the
colored people were ia great numbers
about tbe entrance as be walked inco
the hotel, they attempted to i'uIIjw
him ia. Nicholas the proprietor,
stepped between them and the Gen
eral, and said :
"Go oat, yoa are not wanted
here."
General Grant immediately put
his hand on Nicholas thsulderaod
said: "Wherever I am tbey can
come. It not ia Ibis hotel, tbea I
will go to oae where they can."
This was said in a low tone bat
sufficiently audible to be beard by
those near him. General Grant did
net leave the hotel, neither were tbe
colored people expelled from his
presence. Tbe lesson was a good
one.
A bombshell was thrown into the

Tbe German government recently
paid tte highest compliment to the
United States by addressing through
the Germao minister at Washington,
a letter requesting to be exactly in
formed as to tbe process by which
the Signal Service Weather Uureau,
so promptly collects the meteorologi
cal reports from all parts of the Uni
ted Siates an extent of territory
greater than Europe and so rapidly
drafts and publishes tbem upon the
daily weather map. These maps
are issued three hours after tbe re
cords are made of tbe different instru
ments in use at some two hundred
stations.
When it is remembered tbat tbe
request comes from a Government
noted for its skilled cbartograpbers,
and standing first ia Europe, tbe val
ue ot tbe compliment will be appreciated.
Washington is at this time having
a treat id tbe way of a Poultry kx
bibitioa at Masonic Temple. Large
numbers of people visit the Temple
and all 1 have met seemed highly
pleased. The fowls are arranged
around tbe large ball ia coops ia
a most convenient maocer. Toe
coops for tbe fosls, geese, ducks,
turkeys Ac , numbering some 450 oc
cupy tbe large hall while tbe ante
rooms and dining rooms contain some
two hundred cages of pigeons.
Tbe Colombia Poultry Association
bas expended over $1,000 preparing
for this grand exhibition, and the re
salt of tbeir efforts is truly a most
gratifying sight. Carrier pigeon
races are made daily, some of the
birds being seat to Baltimore and
others to Alexandria
There is an incubator ia full opera
tion and a most interesting sight is
to watch its operations. I; is filled
with about 200 egir", which are
batched at all times daring the day.
The chickens are taken oat and pat
ander aa artificial mother. Sncb a
show is rather a novelty in tbe Dis
trict, and is unusually attractive es
pecially to tbe ladies aad children.
Tbe general cry is "I m bo giad I
came," and one lady, who was so
carried away with admiration, heap
