Gen. Grant in Canton—a Scene
of Oriental Splendor.
Mr. Young writes to the New York Herald
of the reception of General Grant in Canton :
I have seen some extraordinary sights that
now and then I dwell upon as a part' of the
pageantry of memory. The famous review
at Munson’s Hill, the night retreat at Bull
Run, Philadelphia the night the news of
Richmond‘s fall arrived, the funeral of
Lincoln, the falling of the Column Vendome,
are among the scenes that one can never
expect to see again, and which are the crown-
ing memories of a lifetime. Among these I
place the spectacle of General Grant‘s en—
trance into Canton. It was certainly an ex—
traordinary sight. The colors, the surround-
ings, the barbaric pomp, the phases of an
ancient civilization, so new, so strange, so.
interesting, and beyond all this teaming city,
alive with wonder and curiosity, giving this
one day to see the foreigner,to look with awe
upon the face of the American whose coming:
had been discussed in every bazaar and by
every silk loom in Canton. As soon as we
crossed the bridge and were carried down the.
stony. slanting path into the street the crowd.
began. It was not an American or an Eng-
lish crowd, swaying, eager, turbulent, some
at horse play, some bonneting their neigh-
bors, shouting snatches of song or chafling
phrases, but a Chinese crowd,densely packed,
silent, staring. The multitude seemed to
have been pressed into space by some system
of artificial pressure, the people were so close
together, men, women and children.
At intervals of a hundred yards were
guards of soldiers, some carrying spears
shaped like a trident, others with stavcs or
pikes, others, the clumsy, Old-fashioned gun.‘
There is nothing martial in the Chinese sol
dicr, I am afraid, but his dress was specially
decorated and helped to give color to the
scene. Then came groups of mandarins
(officials), their hats surmounted with the
button which indicated their rank, holding
fans, and as the general passed saluting him
in Chinese fashion, raising both hands to
the forehead in supplieating attitude, holding
them an instant and bringing them down
with a rotary gesture. Wherever the street
was intersected with other streets the crowd
became so dense that additional troops were
required to holditin place, and at various
points the salute of three guns was firetl.
The road to the viceregal palace was thrcc
miles, and as the pace of the coolie who car-
ries your chair is a slow one, and especially
slow on days of multitudes and pageantry,
we were over an hour on our journey, and
for this hour we journeyed through a sea of
faces,a hushed and silent sea, that swept
around us, covering windows, doors, streets.
roof tops, wherever there was room for a
pair of feet or hands. ‘
Mr. Evarts very neatly sums tip the demo-
cratic backdown :
Tney began by saying to the President.
“Sign our political measures or we will
withhold $46,000,000 of the appropriations
for running the government.” "That does
not frighten me," replied the Presrdent; “I
shall 0 ahead and do my duty just the
same.’ “Very well," said the democrats,
“if that’s your intention we will keep back
$20,000.000.” Finding the Presrdent still
unmoved, they cried out, “If you don't back
down we will refuseyou $10,000,000.” As
this threat had no effect, they finally held
back $600,000 and ran away. It was a re
markabl well—developed case of the small
end of t e born.
The Secretary takes an opposite'vicw of
the Southern situation, and believes that the
best classes of the Southern p le are sick
of Bourbon rule and the unpro able alliance
with the Northern democracy:
The are all the while told by their North-
ern aides to keep quiet, and not to show
their heads above the hatches, lest they
should arouse the feelings of the Northern
people. Naturally they begin to ask who
these Northern people are that they must be
' careful not to offend. They find that they
are the people of intelligence, property and
influence, and that they are the Republicans
and not the Democrats. ' It cannot be long
before some of these Southern men wrll come
to the conclusion that they had better seek
the friendship of the class in the North that
can be of service to them and cut loose from
the party of camp-followers with which they
are acting. The Northern Democrats have
done nothing for the South in the past, and
will do nothing in the future. If that section
is to get any real benefit from political action,
it must come from association With the Itc-
publieans of the North.
A Home in the Country.
A writer in the New England Farmer dis-
courses thus sensibly about how to have a
beautiful home :
It does not always require great wealth to
possess a pretty home. If the house is un-
painted, a woodbinc or climbing rose trained
over the door or window is a great improve—
ment. But trees I always thought one of
the prettiest ornaments to a farmer's hone;
besides they are of other value. How re-
freshing a few sugar maples and elms look
near the house on a hot summer's day; and
if a few evergreens are set on the windward
side, they will afford as much pleasure in the
winter season as deciduous trees do in sum-
mer. Flowers, too, add a great deal to the
beauty of.a home, and they should in no
wise be neglected.‘ Let the farmer prepare
the ground, and the wife and daughters will
be glad to plant and cultivate them. cis a
general thing, farmers do not like “posies,”
and all time spent on them is considered
wastcd.' But I say let us have fiOWers, and
help the women cultivate them, too. They
cast an influence of refinementaround, one’s
home, besides reminding us of, the goodness
of God in giving us spohsbedgtgulthings to
cheer us while at onrlabrfpul , -
“Johnny, what does your mother keep a
cat for 7" “To lay kittens," was the unex-
pected reply. The questioning for that ses-
' sisted of herself and husband, a daughter

Educating the Girls.
A lady writes as follows to the St. Paul
Pioneer Press :
Not long ago, while 'visiting in the city, I
called on a friend, whom I found suffering
with a nervous headache. Her family con-
nineteen years of age, who had just returned
from Wellcsley College, and a son fourteen
years of age. and two young ladies—boarders.
Txe hired girl had gone out for a few hours,
for it was Sunday. the day they always ex-
pect a .little .iberty, after dinner is over.
'thn tea time arrived my friend said,
"Well. it is tea the, and Christine has not
returned; we must try to get something on
the table.” .
“Oh, dear!” says the daughter, “I Wish
that girl would stay at home. What is to be
done 7" ‘
“Well,” replied her mother, “in the first
place there must be a fire made to heat
some water for tea, and then set the table;
there is plenty cooked.”
“Oh, mercy! make a fire! I’m sure I don’t
know how to do it,” responded the daughter.
Then the weary mother, with aching head,
explained the process.
“Well,”. says the daughter, "I can go and
try; but I haven‘t the least idea I can make
a fire—so you need not expect to have any
tea for an hour to come. But first I must
pin up this miserable dress or I can do noth—
ing.” '
- As she said this she gathered up yards of
cloth that she had been dragging around
behind her, fastened it up to her waist, and
left the room with a very dissatisfied look on
her face. '
After she had been gone a little while her
mother said, “I suppose I may just gs well
go out, make that fire and put on the tea,
first as last, for I don't believe she will ever
get it made.” And pressing her hand on her
hciid,shc dragged herself out into the kitchen.
As she passed out, I heard these words:
I “Ch, mother! I am so glad you have come
out, for I am sure I never can get this fire to
burn; but I think I can set the table.” The
fire was soon made, and my friend returned
to the sitting room. As she came in she
said:
“New, Mrs. Carpenter, I suppose you have
been saying to yourself, ‘If I had a daughter
she would do better than that,’ and I have no
doubt she would: but living as we doI don’t
know how I could teach her to work. I have
always kept a hired girl, and my daughter
has always been in sehoo .” -
Just here the door opened, and the daugh—
ter put in her head and said:
"Do tell me for mercy’s sake, how you
manage to cut bread in slices; it breaks all
to pieces.” ~
“Well, break it in pieces, then ; I can—
not comc cut again," answered the tired
mother. ,
After a time the door opened again, and
she came in cxclaiming, “Well, the job is
done at last; btit I have bad a dreadful
time of it. I have got bread and butter,
cookies and sauce, and tea on the table. Is
that all?”
“You may go down cellar and get some
canned lobster,” said her mother, telling her
just where it stood.
She soon returned, saying “There is no
such thing down there; I have looked every-
where, and I can't find it.” ‘
“Well, then, I suppose I must go down and
get it;” said the poor woman; "but I don’t
feel as though I could get there. I know it
is there, because I saw it there yesterday.
“Let me go,” interrupted the husband; “if
there is any such thing there I can find it.”
But who ever knew a man to find anything?
He soon .came back erupty—handcd, saying
there was no such thing in the cellar. So the
woman went herself at last, and brought
back immediately what they had been looking
for. They both declared that she had it hid
somewhere; brit she insisted it stood in plain
sight.
And so the meal was ready at last, and we
thinking what a wife that girl would make.
She: was smart and capable and well educa-
ted, btit entirely ignorant of those things
which a wife and housekeeper should have
a thorough knowledge of. No matter how
rich a man may be, nor how much hired help
there may be in the house, if he has a wife
who is ignorant of housekeeping he cannot
have a well ordered household, and he will
soon begin to think there is a screw loose
somewhere.
Now, is it right for mothers to allow their
daughters to marry until they are fitted for
the duties of a wife and mother? It is not
only wrongiug the daughter but the man who
marries her. I would say, give them an edu-
cation, by all means; but sometime before
they marry make them serve an apprentice-
ship in the kitchen until they have a thorough
knowledge of the art of housekeeping.

SHOULD not be regarded as a trifling nil-
nicnt—m fact nature demands the utmost reg-
ularit y of the bowels, anti any deviation from
this demand paves the way often to serious

impure accumulations from the Kowcls as it
is to eat or sleep, and nohcaltli'can becxpcct-
cd where a costtvc habit of body prevails.
SICK‘HEADACHE 1
This distressing affliction occurs most frequent-
l y. The disturbance of the stomach, arising
from the imperfectly digested contents, causes a
severe pain in the head. accompanied with disa-
greeable noses, and this constitutes what is‘pop-
itlarly known as sick heartache.

Celebrated Safes,
In purchasing a Safe, we wish to call your
attention to some of the important advantages
our Safes possess over all others, and which
make them the cheapest and best Safes now
made. ..
1st. Our "PATENT Ixsrnn BOLT Wonk”
consists in placing the bolts and locks on the
inside of the door (as shown in the cut abovtg
where they are at all times accessible, an
can be cleaned and kept in order, and thus
prevent them from unexpectedly locking you
out. In all other Safes the bolts are placed
next the outside plate of iron, being covered
completely by the filling, consequently im-
possible to oil or clean them without digging
out the filling, which is expensive, besides
losing the use of the Safe several days. As
the filling in our Safes is between the locks
and bolts and the outside plate of the door,
in most cases we can unlock our safes on the
combination after they have passed through a
severe fire, which saves breaking them open.’
2d. Our “PATENT HINGED CAP" consists
of the back plate of the door being hung on
hinges, and fastened by a thumb-screw,whieh
enables one to have access to the locks and
bolts by simply removing the thumb-screw.
3d. While other safe~makers use three
wheel locks on their fire-proof safes (reserv-
ing the best four-wheel locks for bank safes),
we put on our FOUR—WHEEL Locus on all
safes, from the smallest to tire largest, and for
simplicity and durability cannot be excelled.
4th. All our Safes are IRON-LINED INSIDE,
instead of wood-lined as in other safes, which
enables us to use the the greatest amount of
water in our filling without danger of the
_Safe’s being damp. All corners of the Safes
are secured with angle iron, which, together
with the very hard nature of our filling, pre -
v. them from injury from falling, or fall—
ing walls or timbers. Our Safes have THREE
FLANGES instead of single or double as in
others, and are made with and without inside
doors. In the great Boston fire our Safes had
the champion record, as was fully proved at
the time, to these important improvements
do we owe our success and the great popular-
ity our safes have attained throughout the
country. After that great fire we published
a complete list of_our Safes exposed,those that
failed to preserve their contents, besides those
that were successful, and for months chal-
lenged our competitors to followour example
which they would not do, as they knew that
by so doing they would only assist us in dem-
onstrating to the world the superiority of our
Safes, and our claim to the champion record.
Although that Great Fire so conclusively
proved the superiority of our Safes to resist
intense heat, we believed that we could im-
prove them, and we have, therefore, since
that time, increased the thickness of the walls,
added to the number of flanges, and strength
cried them in various ways, until we now
manufacture a Safe better than ever before,
and unequalled for its excellence. It has been
our constant'aim to make the BEST SAFE that
can be produced, believing that, especially in
purchasing a safe to keep that which may
have cost a lifetime to accumulate, the best is
decidedly the cheapest. In these dull times
it is the custom of many safe—makers to man-
ufacture several grades of cheap safes, and
recommend that which can be sold the cheap-
est, without regard to quality, and many
safes are now in use that are painted finely
outside, but are worthless to preserve their
contents from fire. We make but one class
of Safes, which is the best we know how to
produce. Send for descriptive catalogue.

CARRIAGE BOWS,
Enrrons Gaza'rrr. :-—The following lines
found on the last page of an old album have
a milesian flavor: '
It’s a sort of good-bye that I’m writi ng,
A kind of farewell, as it were,
And I’m tould to be witty and wise,
Which I think, by the way, isn't fair.
For if witty, I mustn’t look solemn ;
While, if wise, like an owl I must be;
Such a quarc combination of faces,
’Pon my word, friend, is too much for me.
So I’ll quietly slip in at the back here,
Where I’m out of the way, do you moind!
And then if not wanted or welkim,
I’ll not take it the lastc bit unkind.

“ Sa-luting the Bride.”
There was a marriage at the upper end of
the Detroit, Lansing and Northern road the
other day. A great big chap, almost able to
throw a car-load of lumber off the track, fell
in love with a widow who was cooking for
the hands at a saw-mill, and aftcra week’s ac-
quaintance they were married. The boys
around the mill lent William three calico
shirts, a dresseoat, and a pair of white pants
and chipped in a purse of about $20, and the
couple started for Detroit on a bridal tour.
within an hour after being married.
“This ’crc lady,” explained William, as the
conductor came along for tickets, “are my
bride. Just spliced 56 minits age. Cost $52,
but durn tlic'cost! She’s a lily of the valley,
Mary is, anti I’m the right bower in a new
pack of kerds. Conductor, sa—lute the
bride! ”
The conductor hesitated. The widow had
freckles and wrinkles and a turned up nose,
and kissing the bride was no gratification.
“Conductor, salute the bride or look Out
for tornadoes! ” continued William as he rose
up and shed his coat.
The conductor sa-luted. It was the best
thing he could do just then.
“I never did try to put on style before,”
muttered William, “but I‘m bound to see
this thing through if I have to fight all Mich.
lgan. These ’erc passengers has got to come
up to the chalk, they has.
The car was full. William walked down
the aisle, waved his hand to command atten—
tion, and said:
“I’ve just been married, over thar’ sets the
bride. Anybody who wants to sa-lute the
bride kin now do so. Anybody who don’t
want to, will hev cause to believe that a tree
fell on him.
One by one the men walked up and kissed
the widow, until only one was left. He was
asleep. William reached over and lifted him
into sitting position at one movement and
commanded :— .
“AF’YGI goin’ to dust over thar’ an’ kiss the
bride ? "
"Blast your bride, and you. too! " growl-
ed the passenger.
William drew him over the back of the
seat, laid him down in the aisle, tied his legs
in a knot and was making a bundle of him
just of a size to go through the window,when
the man caved and went over and saluted.
“Now, then,” said William, as he put on
his coat, “this bridle tower will be resumed.”
