OLD KENTUCKY.
The first object' which meets the eye
-of the traveler as ho approaches the quiet
and aristocratic city of Lexington,„Ky.,
is the monumental statue of lleny Clay.
And I think its also the one on which
the gaze of the departing visitor last lin

ington it was chiefly the memory of-that
great Kentuckian that prevailed the
place, and the reminiscences of him' that
beguiled the days. For this man, per

most beloved of the great Senators of his

from the centre of the cemetery, loftily
and lonely. IrWas not built in tho in

which is also a tomb, a cylindrical shaft
of Kentucky stole' (no other than Ken

aro inscribed simply the words "Henry

once green and called " eVergreen," but
long since gone to decay. On tho side of
this coffin of stone' is written this proud
boast of him within : "I can with un

the worst, of "farming" cannot make
unproductive. In fact, nature seemed
to have spaced nothing from her abund
puce in giving this section a "start."
But this is not all of the picture: The
rivckr that flows between Ohio and the
Stakof which I am_writing measures a
difference of fifty years in the matter of.
progress, and Kentucky is the behind
State. "The old system of labor," as
they still paraphrase slavery, choked en
terprise, banished improvements, fos.
terrd indolence, forbade railroads, en
couraged and compelled ignorance and
nursed vice, and the Blue Orass region
is attractive and productive, not because
of, but notwithstanding, the people.
To give some illustrations : For nine
teen years a railroad has been building
from 'the heart of the "Blue Gass'' to
the Ohio river direct, a distance of forty
five miles. It was only fialishod within
the last month, so much opposition did
it meet from those whom it was to bene
fit. -.Cincinnati offOied $10,000,000 to
build a railroad through Kentucky ...to
the South—the Southern Railroad. This
road was to give imitteasurablo advan
tages to Kentucky. It was to give to
the country south of her—one of bound
less fertility and re:t!iurces—a chAce to
breathe. It was to coax wealth and
business to flow through
,this proud I
State, leaving wealth and business iu
their track. Iu New Faghula all the
people in all the towns along the pre- I
posed lino would have vied with each !
other in offering aid and encouragement '
to such a road. Cities and towns and
individuals would have emptied their
hundreds of thousands into the hands of
the builders. Kentucky refused the ton I
millions and forbade the read. This I
was a year ago., The present Legisla-.
ture, by the deciding tioto:of the presid-t
ing .officer of the Senate, condescended
to accept the gift and grant a charter,
but imposed tt,tax of fifty cents for every
person carried over the sacred soil of
thou high-toned 'State, and twenty-five

The -Kentuckians are indeed a peculiar

on pOculiar hinges. Money alone is not
a passport. Brains are not even a re
commendation. A residence north of
the Ohio is often a' disqualification. You
must be a." thorough-bred," or the next
friend of' a "thorough-bred," else the
doors aro shut. But ho to whom they

grotesque letters, has scarcely exagger
ated the ignorance and peculiarities of
the Kentucky countryman or mouatain
oor. Ho sits in his mountain hut and
cats hog and hominy, or loafs in the cor
ner grocery and guzzles whiskey, and
talks " constitution." His sleepy eyo has
never rested on a Jearhboat, a railway
or town, but his reflective and inquiring
mind has got along with the news,. no
doubt, as far as the Concord fight, and .
I believe that lie, too, vain-gloriously
says, "I am a Kentuckian." But I
should do injustice to the majority of
Kentuckians if I forgot to mention a
certain liberality and generosity, a cer-'
Lain cordial disregard, or a light regard
for dollars and cents, which is common
here and is not common in New Buz-
land. But it is easy and natural in all
latitudes to bo generous With broad that

THE METHODISTS
SKETCIIF.S OP THE I•IVB NEW. BPNIOPS
The following interp t 9ting sketch of the
recently chosen Bishops is taken from
the Philadelphia Bulletin:
lIISTrOP BOVIAN. s
The Rev. Thomas Bowman, D b. , is a
native of Berwick, Pennsylvania, and is
53 years of age. In early boyhood, ho
became a member of the Methodist
Episcopal Church, and soon after entered
Dickinson College, at Carlisle, Pennsyl
vania. He was graduated, with distin
guished honor, 'in the first class after the
institution came under the control of the
Methodists. For a brief period, he was
assistant teacher in the Grammar De
partment, but resigned and entered the
Baltimore Conference in 1830. After
travelling several years with much suc
cess as , a minister, ho was forced by
throat disease to rest from his ministerial
labors. Soon after, however, in 1848, ho
was elected president of DipkinSon
Seminary, at Williamsport, Pennsylva
nia, au institution ,for boys and girls.
During his Presidency of ten 'years ho
was eminently successful. His popularity
was stub that wherever he preached in
Williamsport he attracted crowds. De
siring to re-outer the pastorate, he" re
signed the Presidency; but liar* had
lie resumed pastoral duties when he was
elected president of the Indiana Asbury
University, at Greencastle, Indiana, and
was induced to accept, and hero he has
remained until the present.- This insti
tution, which has been under the presi
dency of sonic of the ablest men in the
church, including Bishop Simpson, has
been managed with great skill by Dr.
Bowman, and its prospects for usefulness
were never brighter thin at the present
time. President Boivinan is well-known
as a pulpit orator, and his services for
the dedication of churches and 'other
special occasions have been widely
sought. He is fluent and forcible, and
in delivery eschews the use of notes.
His sermons are plaiii,, practical and
lucid, and his bearibg in the pulpit is
dignified. In personhe is of about the
mediuns size, compactly built and pleas
ant featured. He is plain in his attire,-
and modest and unobtrusive in his man
ners. At the General Conference in
1808, if the Episcopal Bench had boon
kiforced, lie would undoubtedly have
beetglected.

The Rev. William L. Ilarris, D. D.,
was born In no, in November, 1817,
and became a itiOmber of the Methodist
Episcopal C)Mrek in his seventeenth
year. Two years.. after he was licensed
to preach, and the next year ho joined
the. Ohio Conference, and spent . ten
years in tho 'pastoral {Vatic. Ho was
then elected Principal of the Baldwin
Institute, and after three years' service
resigned to accept a Professorship in the
Ohio Wesleyan University, at Delaware,
Ohio, where ho' spent ton years, part of
the time under the Presidency of the late
Bisheii - Thpinsom- iBBO, - "nt the Qom.
oral Conference held in' Buffalo,
ho • was elected Assistant Missionary
Secretary, which office ho has hokt up to
the present time. Had ho not boon
elected to the Eascopacy he would have
boon chosen chief Secretary of the Mis
sionary Society in placcvof ttio Rev. Dr.
Durbin, who declined a re-electiOn owing
to his advanced years and ill-health. Dr.
Harris is a writer of ability, and though
he is not known as an author, his labors
in'preliiicing the proceedings of each
General Conference, and editing and re
vising the Discipline `every four years, ,
entitle bins to, consideration in . this re-,
spat. „During the great Anti-Slavery
struggle in the. Church, he wrote much,
and well, and•some of his pamphlets will
leng be 'prized. Hole a fine specimen
of vigorouS manhood; nearly feet
high, well built, with courteous manners,
and social habits that make liim a groat
favorite. '
BISHOP FOSTER
, The Rev. Randolph S. Foster, D. D.,.
was born 'in Clermont county, Ohio, in
1820. Converted in early life,' ho Mi
tered the ministry of . the Methodist
Episcopal Church, joining the Ohio con.-
•forence in 1837. Soon after ho began
preaching, ho attracted the attention of
tho Chin. , 'authorities, ' and was ab
.pointad.--4o- some of the important
churches in Oinoinnati and adjoining
places. In 1850 he was transferred to
the Neiv• Tork,Conforonco, and spent 18
years in the 'pastoral . work chiMly at
soca!) of the most prOmlnent 'churches
in this city. ' When Drove Theological
Seminary was establiShed at• Madison,
N.Y.; ho was oleotod one'of . the .Pro
fossors, and on the,death of Dr. bloOlin
toolr;' Proal44\ of that institution, ho
<, ..,
was elected to the vacant position,' which
- ha , still - occupicis i While 'residing:- at
Cincinnati ho acquired great popularity
for his able defence of the doctrines of
the doctrines of the Cluiroh, and pith
lished a volume. on "Calvinism" Which
is acknowledged, - to - be ..,an able pro-dile
tide. Since his residence in the East,
ho has ptiblished-soveral volumes, in
cluding "Christian purity," "Minis
try," and "Lectures on Darwinism."
These works have placed him high in
the ranks of scholarship. As a writer
he is vigorous and lucid, and he thor
oughly analyzes whatever subject ,he
discusses, and presents it' clearly to the
reader, - Few ministers excol'Di. Foster
in preaching. Without having popular
qualities as a speaker, ho rarely fails to
'command the close , attention of a con
gregation, and fto interest and instruct
'them. In, person ho is tall and impos
ing, and when speaking ho is dignified
and graceful. -The solid elements of his
character early attracted the attention
of the Church, and when the late Bish
ops Clark, Tlibmson, and Kingsley wore
elected-at Philadelphia in HA , he also
was named for the Episcopate. When
the General genkence was held at Chi
cago in 18138, if - tWo Board of Bishops
had been increased, no doubt he would
have been chosen then.
The Rev. Isaac W'. Wiley, D. D., is a
Pennsylvanian by birth, and in the forty

was of signal value in the mission work.
Immediately after his return he entered
upon pastoral work, and four years af

PRESIDENT GREELEY'.
TUE .DI AOCRATIC ACCOUNT OF TILE
BATTLE, OF DORKINO-T111.:
=I
You ask me to tell you, my children,
of the events which immediately pre
ceded the destruction of the once groat
American Union and the capture of the
country by i)ifiniesent European rulers,
and to say S i timetning, also, of tho cause
which led t thee deplorable results•
undertake ktioask with a heavy heart,
fur when I revert to that terrible time
I canna help contrasting our proud con
dition up to that fatal year with the
humiliating position occupied now by
the American people. The story is a
short f orm. In the fall of 1872 Horace
Greeley, the editor of a newspaper in
Now York, was ,elected President of . the
limitcd—,States. The people voted for
him bicauso they thought ho was an
honest man. And so ho was. But he
was also vain and weak, and ho enter
tained certain fanatical and propotderons
noiions = about agricultnral matters, for
instance—Which ho wits determined to
force upoli-tbe people at all hazard's, and
despite all opposition. He 'believed,
among other things, that a man ought
to go to the West to earn hi. 4 bread, ,and
long before he was chosen President ho
used to advise nverybody to move to
that region, as a cure for all the disas
ters that could befitll the human family.
As Soon as ho reached the Executive
3Tansidn,which he used to call the White
House, President Greeley organized an_
army of two hundred thousand men, and
proceeded' to force the entire population
of the seaboard States westward at the
point of the bayonet. The' utmost.vio
lence was used. T hosewho resisted
were shot down, and their dead bodies
wore `carted off to a national'Tactory
which the• President had established for
making some kind of fantastical fertil
izer, All the large cities of the East were
depopulated, and the towns were entirely
empty. The army swept before it'
mil
lions of men, women children, until the
vast plains west of Kansas wore reached,
when the purtuit ceased and the army
was drawn up in a continuous . line, with
orders to shoot any person who at
tempted to visit the East. Of cow,
hundreds of thousands of these P6or
creatures perished from starvation.
This aequed to frighten President- Gree
ley, and ho,sent a message to Congress
recommending' that seven huudred,thou
saiid volumes of a book of his, entitled
" What I 'Know about Parming,"shohld
be devoted for the relief of the starving
sufferers. This Was done, and farming
implements wore supplied ; and ,hon the
millions of wretched outcasts rondo an
effort to till the ground. Of the result of
this I, will speak further on.
In the meantitne the President was
doing infinite harm to the country in
another way. Ills hand-writitig was so
fearfully. and wonderfully bad that;no
living man could read it, And so when
ho sent his first Annual message to Con
greet's—the document was devoted *holly
to the) tariff and dOiculture—a Sentence,
appdarBd which subSequently was ascer
taiued be, Largo caltivation of ruta
bagas and beans is the only hope of the
Alnerican nation, I am sure:". --- The
grintorai not being able to interpret
this, 'put it in the following fOrm, in
which it went to the world " The
Czar of Russia couldn't keep clean if ho
washed himself with the whole Atlantic
Qecan Once a day." This perversion of
the message was immediately tele
graphed to Russia liy t 1,43 Russian Min-.
lam., and the Czar was-do indignant that
ho immediately declared war.
Just at this tilde Piesidont Giesley
undertook to r .writo someletters to Prince
Bismarck.; upon the subject .of potato
rot,and, After giving MS singular views
at , oleatlenr;th, lie coheluded" with the
stilton:mut that the EMperot:
said thatsub-soil plowing was 'net good
in light soil, or that gnano was better
than bone dust, he Wflf3 "a liar, a villain
and u slpie‘l" Of course• the Emperor
also. irinnediately•! declared . war, and
became au ally of 11 1 / 4, issia and England,
Against which latter pountry Mr. Greeley
had actually begun hostilities already,
bcoatiso the Queen, in her speech from
the throne, had 'declared the Tribune's
advocacy of a tariff-on pig, iron incen
diary,. and 'calculated to 'the
Peace of natien. • „ •
Unhappily, thiii Was not the full meas
ure'of our disasters.. The Piesident.had
aunt to 'the Etnperor of: a copy
of hiii book, "What I know," (%c., witlr
his autograph upon a flyleaf. Tho Em
peror mistook the signaturefoi.; a cation
tamottlfo Austrain eagle, and liereadily
jointid .in • a against the ~ U nited
States ; while Franco was , provolre'd to
the same aot by the feet thatiihen the
French Milliliter :tamale call upon Mr.,
GFeeloy,,to present his 'grodentials, the
writing an editorial
nt the` time l not' oomprohonding the
NUMBER 22
French. language, mistook the Anibassa
.dor fora .beggar, and -withort§..looking
lip handed him a quarter and an order
for a clean shirt, and. said to him, "Go
West, ything ipan—go West."
So all these nations joined in making
war upon the United States. They
swooped down upon our coasts and
landed . without opposition, for thoito
exposed portion§ of our unhappy country
were absolutely deserted. The President
was - afraid to call away tho army from
Kansas: ut,.first, for fear the outraged
people-upon - the plains would come East
in spite of him. lint at last he did
summon the army to his aid-and it moved
to meetrThe enemy. It was tocra.fii.
Before the troops reached Cincinnati the
foreigners had seized Washington and
all the country east of the Ohio, and had .
hung the President, the , _Cabinet and
every member of Congress.: The ariny
disbanded in alarm, and the invaders
moved to the far West where they found
the populatthn dying of starvation be
cause they had followed the advice
,of
Greeley's book, to " Try, for your first
crop, to raise limes ; and don't plant
more than a gallon of quicklime in a
hill ?" Of course these people were at
the mercy of thin. enemy, wha, to his
credit be it said, treated them kindly, fed
them, and brought them back to their,
own homes.
You will know what followed—how
Prince'Frederielt- William of Pri'thsia as
cended the throne, and the other humi
liations that ensued. It 'liras a fearful
blow to Republicailisin—a blow from
which it never will recover. It made us,.
who were freemen, a nation of slaves:
It was all the result of our blind cmil
deuce in misguided ad man, who
thought himself .a Philosopher, but who
was actually a fv). May heaven pre

Little by little, as the child grows to

Wisely to the -entire charge. When

alto become, j•dtit partners in home and
Tiousehold responsibilities. When out
cf school, divide the work so that 'every
week the mother shall be- entirely free
from all care—a guest in the family—or
if that is :ILA' st trio great a tax on the
young pantner, "take turns" in dividing
tyre work, the daughtoz one week hav
ing charge of the -cooking, marketing
and arranging for each meal- entirely
herself ; the next week of the
dairy, if on a farm, or the laundry or
chamber work. When each week is
ended the mother can point out failure . ;
or recommend a better way of doing
souse particular thing, but unless advice
or directions are asked, it is far better
that the young housekeeper should be
loft to her own skill and judgment. For
a few times this may not prove the best
economy, but in the end "it pays," and
with good interest. 'Of course, before
this plan,can be carried into execution
to any ext, the young lady has served

herself, that Limit "of ; rifvork which
comes under her jurisdietioii each week;
and when practice shall have [nude per

daughter to . assume the- reins entirely,
for a shorter or longer time, as hearth or
pleasure may determine, subject to such
suggestions as may bedeenied advisable.
This arrangement gives rest and liberty,
