Cincinnatti Commercial :-"The silver advocates are not aggressors -they are on the defensive ; they are not innovators-they are for the reptoration of the old money measure." Cincinnati Commercial :-"The Senatorial estimate of the loyalty and statesmanship of the President is according to his subserviency to the Sonato." The Chicago Times says that neither the Republican nor the Democratic party has any longer a cause to live. The Communists alone have a principle now." Congressman Vance, of North Carolina, chairman of the committee on patents, claims the credit of having defeated the extension of sewing machine patents, and of thereby conferring a boon on countless thousands of toiling wo Mon, Nashville (Tenn.) Banner :-The South to-day is more national than the North, and will continue to be so for years to come. Not until the North ceases to be radically section al will the South again become dividedly politically. The South is looking to the future and not to the past." Of the independent political move ment in the South the Memphis (Tenn.) Appealremarks :-"It is the most contemptible organization that ever appeared in the politics of America. Professing independence, it is a subservient tool to radicalism, which the carpet-baggers use as they do their spittoons." St. Louis Republican: -"If we are to keep on pursuing Mexican Indians into Mexico and the Mexi cans are to pursuo our Indians into our country without limitations, wo will in time cease fighting the In dians and get to fighting one anoth or. It is plain that matters on the Rio Grando are breeding another war. St Louis Times:-"England pro., duces neither gold nor silver; America produces both in large quantities. That the people of the United States should join foreign countrios in depreciating silver, which is one of their principal pro ductions, would be the extremo of commercial insanity. They might as well join England in the declara tion that wheat shall not be used for food or cotton for clothing." The Harrisburg (Pa.) Telegraph (Republican) says:-"Thero is no coherence in the elements by which we were defeated, and what seemed on the morning after our election a broken up Republican party is as united, as resolute and as harmon - ous i. all parts of the State as over it was when it walked through campaigns and was honored with victory in two~thirds of the counties of the State." Of Dan Voorhees the Troy (N. Y.7 imen.s says :---"His record pro claims him a bitter rebel who lived at the North wvhere ho wvould not be under the necessity of jeopardizing his property or his precious person in fighting for his convictions, but who wvent ha'nd and glove with traitors every hour the rebellion la:stod. It is to be expected that the South will send ox-rebels to Congress, but what can be thought of the disgrace and insult offered to the nation wvhen a Northern State sendis such a man as Voorhecs to sit in the United States Senate 7" MABAUREMENT OF CORN TN THE CRIB3. -"E. B. S." asks for a rule for the measurement of corn in the crib. Such rules are never exact, because different varieties of corn and the same variety during different seaM sops will shell more grain than others. Of some kinds two bushels of ears will make more than one of shelled corn, while two bushels of the large cob kinds will not rpake one of shelled corn. If we assume that two bushels of ears will make one of shelled corn the following rule will give a correct result : Multiply the cubic contents of the crib in feet by four, and strike off the right hand figure. The remnain., der will indicate the number of bushels of shelled corn. This rule Imay be explained as follows : A Umited States standard bushel con tains 2,450. cubic inches ; a cubic foot contains 1,728-therefore a bushel is to a cubic foot as 5 is to 4. If one bushel of shelled corn is the p roduct of two of ears, then illeproportienl is that of,10 to 4, or mulipy 4an. ivdeby 10 as atto fla imes. BRIC-A.BRAC. B. F. Butler will deliver the ad. dress at Gettysburg, on Decoration Day. Senator McDonald, of Indiana, began his working life as a saddlert and Josse D. Bright was once a laborer in a brick-yard. Clara Morris appeared as .Tane Eyre in New York for the benefit of the Custer monument fund. Eighteen hundred dollars were realized. Benjainin Leopold Far'eon, who came ovor to America wit Joseph Jefferson, whose daughter he has married, is the son of a Tunisian Jew, but liberal enough in his reli gion to write an annual Christmas story. He is forty-three years old. Henry M. Stanley, the African explorer, and one hundred and twenty of his follows were taken to the Cape of Good Hope in her Majesty's storeship, Induatry, which will also take them to Zanzibar. Mr. Darwin went from London all the way to Liverpool not long ago to call on Pongo, the learnedgorilla, and left his card tucked in the door of Pongo's room, just above the door-knob. Senator Morton's will gives the whole of his property Ubsolutely to his widow, leaving her to use her own judgment and discretion as to what aid she shall give their chil. dren in their education and other wise. The estate is valued at about $50,000. Two years ago the peak of Popo, catopetl, in Mexico, was ascended by Mrs. Terry and Miss Sawyer, of Now York, and Mrs. Richardson, of Now Orleane, who were the first ladies that ever reached the summit, which is 17,880 feet above the level of the son, and 2,134 feet higher than Mont Blanc, This feat has now boon accomplished again by Mrs. Skilton, wife of the United States Consul Oeneral to Mexico, and Miss Bertha Read, of Missouri. The new monument to be erected to ex-President .ohnson,. at Green ville, Tenn., will be twenty- six feet high, with a base of granite and a shaft of Italian marble. Upon the front is a scroll representing the Constitution of the United States and an open book with a hand rest. ing upon it, suggesting the taking of the oath of office. Over the apex is the American flag, and surmount . ing the whole an American eagle with outstretched wings. "That reminds me of Ben'Hill," said Senator Conkling in a reoent interview ; "he is a genial, open man. He came to me the other day and said : 'Senator, I am obliged to give you notice that I have filed an application for your seat when you are cothpelled to leave it. I don't say that I personally hope it will be empty ; but in case it is-and that now looks probable-I have put a cancat on it.' 'Mr. Bill,' said I, 'there have been five applicants for my seat, and they are all dead .or disappointed. I don't know that I hope you will have as bad luck.'" A TERHIDI,E INDIAN KILLE.-A man who has been in the B3laek Hills and returned is a big gun at the village drug store, and feels called upon to tell the truth when narrating his adventures. Such a man, named Curt, was telling, the other night, how many Indians he had killed during his three months' residence in the Hills. After he had talked half an hour, o.ne of the listeners, who had kept track of the number killed, exhibit~ od the figures. "I find," ho ex claimed, "that you killed fifteen hundred savages in three months." "Is that all?' exclaimed the nl abashed Black Hiller. "Why, I be-. lieve you have left out a week's work there somewhere." ,"If you had such good luck killing Indians, why didn't yon stay there ?" de mar dod another suspicious listener. "Well, the truth is, gentlemen, I was afraid of ruining my left eye. I'd squinted along my gun-barrel so much that my face was bela~ drawn out of shape, and the sigh was so far gone that I had to.bp led about by a dog." "A.n4 you killed Indians while in that condi tion 2" "I did ; though I'% always felt a little mean ab~ou6 It. I couldn't see to shoot,and aso rua 'em down and kloycd 'em -to ..deathN It wasn't manly in me, and 1 wAnt to ask the forgiveness ofy tlement right hero anid now.'
