LONDON, August l4.-^-AJl tho jour?
nals cor.iinout on Stevens' death.
The Times, after recounting Stevens'
prominent connection with the re?
cent impeachment project and his
views relative to the payment of the
5.'20 bonds, concludes: "The death
of Thaddeus Stevens is not a public
loss. His impeachment policy was
of incalculable injury to Ira political
party, and the .financial 'dishonesty
which ho encouraged, dies with him.
He was a fanatical, bitter and ' self?
-willed man, but not mean or deceitful.
w He is the last of the leading Americans
who had the courage to rise above
political partisanship." The Morn?
ing Telegraph has the following :
"Stevens was neither good, wise nor
g?nerons, but in his time did signal
service, and With all his faults, he
merits the famous phrase, 'That was
a mani' " The Daily News concludes:
"The death of Stevens loaves no im?
portant plaee unfilled, either in the
lead of his party, or in tho councils
of the nation."

WHAT INDUSTRY Wmn Do.-The
Macon Journal and Messenger says
"there is a seventeen year old boy
liviug in a county below Macon, who
has twenty-one acres planted in cot?
ton. He hired one man early in the
spring, prepared the land, bought
about $1U0 worth of guano and put
upon it. After getting it planted, he
started to school, which he has regu?
larly attended dnring tho summer,
with the exception of about two
weeks, which his crop required. He
works an hour or two every morning,
in the afternoon and every Saturday.
His cotton is looking very fine, and
he expects to get at least fifteen bales
off the twenty-one acres. Estimating
each bale at 500 pounds, and that he
will get twenty-five cents per pound,
the gross receipt will be $1,875. His
entire expense, including the guano,
will not be over $500-which will
leave $1,379 as the net earnings of
this school-boy. Give him the bene?
fit of every doubt, ond he will surely
make $1,000 clear. Wo commend
this to young men mourning over
their fate, complaining that they can
get nothing to do, and can make no
money."
GENERAL HOWARD'S SOUTHERN
TOUR.-Gen. Howard, who is osten?
sibly on a tour of inspection, to look
into and determine the mode and
manner of closing up the Freedmen's
Bureau, was specially induced to
inquire into the report that rations
were still being issued to idle, vaga?
bond negroes. The charge is made
to the Government hore, that in ono
county in Florida, registering 2,700
voters, the bureau agent has issued
this year 35,000 rations. The state?
ment sent up hore says as long as
the Government will support these
negroes in idleness, there is no hopo
of their making any effort to support
themselves. How long will the
Northe J people, the laboring olasses,
be willing to pay taxes to support
free negroes in absolute idleness,
oven though by this means their
votes may bo secured to carpot-bag
radicals?

THE CROPS.-The crops in this
District are excellent-better than
they have been at any time since the
war-especially the corn crop. The
farmers are jubilant; some say that
they will make enough to last them
two years. We are safe from the
want of bread for one year at least.
The recent rains have worked won?
ders, and, in addition to tho seasons,
the laborers have done their part bet?
ter than usual. The cotton crops
look well and bid fair to supply the
planters with an ample wherewith for
greenbacks to liquidate tho liens of
the present year, or to purchase sup?
plies for the next. Fruit?, &c, aro
in abundance all ovor the District.

A gentleman of Troy, New York,

Colonial history affords a striking
evie! o nco of the foot that the Ameri?
can Indian was comparatively harm?
less, until whiskey, the gift of white
men, had fired his bleeping passions
and transformed his whole nature
into that of a demon. The future
historian, when he oomes to record
tho eventful scenes of the past three
years, says tho Petersburg Express,
will tell of the African, transplanted
to America-'nourished for a century
with tenderness by those to whose
custody he was committed-tame,
gentle, confiding, obedient-and yet
within a short time corrupted and I
demoralized by contact and associa?
tion not with mean whiskey, but by
a still moro baneful influence-mean
white men.
RUMORED PROSPECT o GRANT'S
WITHDRAW AD. -The New York World
asserts that the proposition is serious?
ly entertained among the Republican
National Committee to have their
National Convention re-assemble, re?
ceive Grant's resignation, which ho
stands ready to give in, and nomi?
nate a new candidate for the Pro
sidenoy. The reason given is, thnt
Grant has already shown his entire
unavailability, and possesses no points
on which tho party can rally oven in
a respectable minority in this can?
vass. Thc Convention, bo it remem?
bered, did not adjourn without day,
but adjourned subject to thc call of
tho National Committee.
BRIGHAM YOUNG ON FART YOUNG
MEN.-Brigham Young is evidently
"down on" young men of immoral
habits. In a recent sermon, he
spoke of having refused several young
saints the privilege of visiting his
house and becoming acquainted with
bis daughters, because they were in
the habit of profaning the name of
Deity, and then added: "I do not
wish my daughters to be entangled
with one who does not serve God.
I would rather see every one of them
sealed to Father Perkins hero, who
is eighty-five years of age, than that
any of them should bo sealed to a
wicked man."
THE LAST SURVIVOR.-Tho Trenton
Gazelle has the following: "The last
survivor of the party of young ladies
who strewed flowers in tho path of
Washington, as ho passed through
this city in 1789, on his way to New
York to assume the Presidency, is
Mrs. Sarah Hand, now ninety years
of age, and a resident of Cape May
County, and, notwithstanding hor
advanced ago, is still vigorous and
in good health. On Sunday, June
14, she walked to church ut Cape
May Court House, and back to her
residence, a distance of half a mile."
WHAT RADICAL RULE COSTS.-The
civil services of our TJovernment un?
der radical rule costs $10,000,000 per
year more than that of England.
The cost of our War Department,
as stated by radical authorities, was
8123,000,000 lust year, while the
British army only cost $74,000,000,
and that, too, with a force nearly
four times as large as ours. In ronna
numbers, our army is composed of
(?0,000 men, whilo the British army
has 213,000. _
SALE OP TOWN LOTS.-The salt? of
lots, around tho Court House, that is
to bo, came off Thursday last. The
lots all brought good prices, and, we
understand, enough will be realized
from these sales to complete the pub
lio buildings necessary. Many par?
ties from abroad invested. There
are others amongst us now seeking
investments and homos in our com?
paratively quiet, safe and healthy
section of country.

SAD ACCIDENT.-Our community

about seven miles from this place.

his gun was accidentally discharged,

The. lifo of the flesh is pure blood. Upon
this theory alone the inventor of the
Queen's Doligbt establishes the great hy?
gienic law, without-pure blood no flesh is
free Jram disease. The Pale and Shrunken
Forms, Yellow Faces, Weak Stomachs,
Diseased Livers, Crippled Rheumatics,
Nervous Hypochondriacs, Dyspeptic Vic?
tims of Headache, so common, in. this
country, is owing entirely to the humors
of the blood. Very many other diseases
may bo traced to bad blood, Scrofula or
King's Evil, Erysipelas, Exanthema or
Elevare, a Rash or Emption cn females,
Blotches, Tetter, Goitre or Swelled Neck,
Syphilis and Syphilitic Sores, Strnmous
Ulcers, Ac. These cannot be cured with?
out purifying the blood. Now as to the
remedy. There ia no other blood purifier
that will accomplish such positivo and ex?
traordinary cures as Hoinitsh'e Queen's
Delight. You may take a barrol of extract
Sarsaparilla, and still yon will not be
cured; and. as a proof of it, look around
and you will observe tho country, through?
out its length and breadth, is flooded with
compound Sarsaparillas, extracts and
syrnpn. claiming to bo blood purifiers, and
yet wo BOO to-day more evidence of im?
purity of the blood than ever. Why is
this ? Simply because these extracts and
Sarsaparillas aro worthless medicines.
Ask for Heinitsh'a Queen's Delight. This
is not the Extract of Stellingia or Queen s
Delight, nor is it a Compound Syrup oj
Queen's Delight, or Sarsaparilla and
Queen's Delight, but simply Heimtsh a
Queen's Doligbt ia tho trade mark. Ask
for this, if you want to bo cured, and coo
