It was a fall length, in an antique Spanish dress, a saperb and stately picture, after the style ot Vandyke. One bright afternoen In the winter of 186#, I tru wandering through Greenwood Comcterj, and suddenly came upon an humble grave, in a atnall three-cornered lot, quite unadorned, and only marked by a plain white stone, bearing aimply tbia inscription: " Mr*. Elixn Oilber*'. Dieti February 17lbf 1861-Hijrd 41. It waa the grave of T.ola Monte*. I could hardly realizo that after such a free, wild wing at lifts, from eonticnt to continent, *"hs had been liih'ited to siieij H narfo# domain'.? How that UtUe triangular bedge rceined to imprison that wilful, untamable creature, that rebel against society, that Zingra of the World How heavily the earth seemed to rest on that etange, wild heart, pasitionttte as IDS; inaon stent as water. Jlow still she lay, who bad seamed like *osie gleaming tropical bird, gay bad bare* dad restless. Kind people provided this place of repose for ber yun, weary* faded body, but it is hardly llbe'y that they often risit the spot. There are no Coral tokens of lovely remembrance. Doubtless, many an unmarked grave in tbe Potter's Field on the hillside, ia tnore fre. querttly visited. But is I stood over the , mound, I felt only womanly pity and regreti and gladly wtgld I bare laid thereon an offer ? f r^ar^^L * V>^ - # V . * * ?

Recently Col. John Turlcy, of Clay, Ohio, repudiated thtS Radical party, to which be had always belonged, in the follow* ing truthful and strong language: I am compelled to any that no party ban ever had an existence in this country which baa shown such hu utter disregard to law or tho constitution. None has strer been so corrupt, I have never been a Democrat, yet, *4 one who lores bis oountry, I am willing to unite with Demooarts, Conservatives, or man of any party, won who love their country above party, to arrest this anarchy or deepo" tism to which we are drifting. In summing up the acts of the party in Pow^ r, thb Colonel continues as follows : They have already, by their unjust, tyrant* cat and dotpotio rule, desolated the fairest por* tiou of country to tho tyrant's sway, making slaves or Wort* tlidn slaves of millions of our countrymen, Americans, by denying thein any protection for life, liberty or property, ULkiUjt thetU beyond anything ever known, with no voiee or power to prevent or rttgtllate it, with no right to tho jury box, no right to enforce a jttst claim, no rigbt to testify, no right to pro* toot their persons, their family or property, all at the mercy of the thousand thieves and adventurers, Whose duly Warrant by the Republican party to invest tho Country, Is their en" tire concurrence, and willingness to sngender malice and ill feeling between the former slave and master. No monarchical government has ever treated its cititene thus. ? *-* ADVeetisixo.?This annexed ptnfnpK from the FAIrfleld Herald contains a trUlh> ful statement in begatd to advertising, ami we commend the same to the consideration of all business men: A cotempoi-ary poeitively asserts "that people who advertise are smarter than those who don't?and better looking too, nlut eut of ten." "this is sound pVUoeephy. The fact of a man's advertising it a proof of hia intelligence, and an inielligdiit mind throws an expression over the plainest features that makes them appear handsome, fit' sideB that advertising bribgs business, bnsl* ness brings money, and money brings peace of mind and perpetual cheerfulnessIf you have good* to sell asohrap or cheap" er than your neighbor, let the world know it.

Ohio.?A Columbus (Ohio) paper says; At a meeting of some fifty or sixty Federal soldiers, who are opposed to nigger suffrage t and in favor of a restored l/mdn, held at Thurinan Hall, last Saturday night, tho following pcamhlo and resolutions wero adopted : Whereas, This Government was fouudad by white men, and maintained and governed by White Won for upwards of eighty years, and believing that it should so continue J there* therefore, \ Iteioloi J, That wo appeal to all tho hovs In blutt df this country, regardless of party, who fought for our dug and the Constitution, and the preservation of this IIuioh, to join with us to defeat the designs of all parties and tnett who are attempting to place the negrb ou equality with the white man, fiewotved, That wo, the Undersigned, form ourselves into an organisation, to be known aa the " White Boys in Blue," with the object of Using our best endeavors to defeat negro suffrage, and carry out the principles for which we fought?a white man's Qovernineut and aa undivided Union. ?? Tnu "grand army," formed for political purposes, is quite ready lor action. They call easily add numbers to their proscnt orgnttirUi tlon. Ilencc the rumor that they will aall for twenty-five thousand volunteers, black and white. They can do it at the beck of a radical caucus or eominitteo of Congress. Another sign appears to-dap, which promises an effort for resistance on tho part of tbo President. Qeneral Bhcrtbln, at the President's requost, is on bis Way to this city.?
