Confederate Auditor.
——-
1110 Democratic party thinks that it will pay,
To have a Union soldier for candidate today,
So looking all about them to find a good
decoy,
One Hancock is the man they’ve determined
to employ.
Expecting Union soldiers, our noble boys in
blue,
Who followed him in battle, to vote for him
right through,
I-lrpardless of the fact, that holding such a
place
As Dunocratic fight-cheat}, is his suprcnze
disgrace.
Admit. jurt for argument, that he could ever
be
Democratic President, made so by you and
me ;
W hat is the one base function that IIanco<k
would fulfill,
But girnply that of Auditor of every Robrl
Bill.
Once Union soldier Hancock, knows, and so
do we,
As do all his lcadcrs,t-hat be their tool would
be, .
That in exchange for honor, the only thrng
he gains,
Is (for a Rebel Congress) to audit rebel claims.
The rebel hordes, and Hancock, may think
the boys in blue,
Will forget the Southern battle-fields, and
Libby. prison too,
That they will vote for traitors, who boldly
now proclaim
The war was all a failure,that their comrades
died in vain.
But there is not a soldier, who ever were the
blue,
Will vote to give the Government up to that
traitor crew,
Or to put a renegade in the Presidential chair
That he may audit rebel claims while he is
sitting there.

Visible Electricity.
During a recent shower in Black Rock,
West Stratford and other places along the
shore, the spectator could see the electric
currents striking the water at frequent inter-
vals, sending up a dash of spray and creating
a great commotion among the fishes. The
telephone wire to Black Rock carried into
the store of Sherman Fancher & Son 21 cur-
rent which set the instrument on fire. With
the design of putting out the fire Charles
Fancher began pouring a dipper of water
over the instrument, but while he was doing
this another flash came, and the electric cur-
. rent finding the best'possible conductor in
the water and the dipper, followed them up
and gave Mr. Fancher a severe shock in the
arm. He was stunned for an instant, but
soon recovered. His arm was slightly burned
and swollen.

In marked contrast with the utterly foul
abuse of General Garfield which constitutes
the chief stock in trade of the Democratic
organs of today is the following editorial
opinion of him given utterance to by the
New York World in 1872: “In the midst of
the organizrd carnival of corruption which
has been going on now so many weary
months and years at Washington, it is r'eally
satisfactory to catch a glimpse now and then
of honesty for honesty’s sake, and without
consideration Of party. General Garfield of
Ohio, is a Republican of Republicans, but. it
is his simple due, which we gladly pay him,
to admit that be has done more than any
other single member of his party, during the
last session of congress, to show that it is not
absolutely impossible for a man to act with
a congressional majority and yet to keep his
self—respect and the respect of honest men.

What is a. fair Show ?
A Democratic newspaper, more high tem-
pered that candid asks, “Is there one load-
ing “Republican who is really willing that
the South should have a fair show in our
National Government?” What is .the mat-
ter with President Hayes? A few months
ago, Democrats were compelled to admit that
he was not only willing but anxious that the
South should have a fair show. If anybody
has prevented, it is not the President,nor
his administration, nor any leaders of the
Republican party, for all of them have for
several months been in complete accord
with the President. What is the trouble?
The South is fighting for an unfair show.
That is precisely the difiiculty. Southern
Democrats are not contented to carry a part
of the Southern States, nor to carry some by
slender majorities. They kill people who
attempt to prevent them from getting over-
whclming majorities in every State. Wit-
ness the treatment of the Greenback speaker,
Mr. Randall, of Alabama. Nor do they
count votes cast against them, even when
they are certain that such votes can be over-
come by those of other States. Alabama
had an infamous fraud, called an election,
the other day. The Democrat who pretends
that this so called election was a fair ex-
pression of the will of the people knows that
he is lying. The Northern people are not
unwilling to have “the South” have a fair
show. But they are unwilling that a cow-
ardly, brutal and rascally minority, who
couht the votes at the South should wield all
the political power which that section may
rightfully exert.
“What are you going to do about it P" said
Tweed. The North is going to beat the or-
ganized swindle which calls itself the South,
for one thing. Then it is going to make
such laws that the actual will of the people
in any county of the South, as expressed by
their legal votes, can in some way be heard
and felt, and cannot be overcome by a set of
scoundrels at the voting place or county seat.
To that end, the North will elect a
majority of the next Congress. Then we
shall see what constitutional and proper
means can be devised to prevent bull-dozing
cliques from wielding the power of ten or
twelve States. That is the first step.
But if these conspirators really represented
the South, what would be the answer ? A very
simple one, The North does not gropose to
have the whole country run by a minority of
its voters. The South embraces about one-
third of the people. We do not intend that
one-third shall make themselves masters
over two~thirds. The one-third were rebels
it is true, and the two-thirds were loyal.
But “fairshow” does not mean that are-
bellious and disloyal one—third shall do as
they please with a loyal and faithful two-
thirds. We will submit that question to the
ballot. There are creatures at the North
who would gladly sell out their neighbors,
and their country, for the chance of Federal
office. Possibly a man can. be found who
would sell himself and his State for a chance
of the Collectorship at New York. But the
people of the North have a decided opinion
about the men who are trying to get Federal
oflice by acting as toadics for Southern
rebels. We shall see h0w these office seek-
ers will fare when the election comes.
The North is willing to give the Southa
fair share. But it is not willing to give en-
tire control of the Government to Southern
ballot—box staffers. That is not a fair share,
The independent, law-abiding, and loyal
people of the North are not {ready to be
ruled in that way by the men who did not
win in the late war; and. Mr. Hampton and
his Northern supporters may as well take
notice that they will not—Tribune.

Letters from the People.
o‘n—n _
Enrrons or Gazammif— . 3 .
We notice our citizens are receiving Sena—
tor Eaton’s speech broad cast, as delivered
May 17, 1879, in which he claims the people
“can exist without an army,” &c. As far-
back as our last War with England, we had a
Hartford convention which made a similar
claim, and John Cotton Smith was Governor
of this State until 1816,when the cry was
we have had Cotton long enough, are going
to try wool, when Oliver Wolcot was made
Governor. For ten years he remained Gov-
ernor. We have had a Republican Governor
most of the time up to the'prcscnt.
Mr. Eaton calls himself a Republican but
advocates just what Franklin Pierce used to,
as a specimen of his sentiments I quote from
his letter to Jeff Davis,101h of Jan., 1860,
in which he says, “I have never believed
that actual disruption of the Union can
occur without blood, and if through the
madness of Northern Abolitionists that dire
calamity must come the fighting will not be
along Mason A: Dixon’s line merely, it will
be within our own borders, in our own
streets, between the two classes of citizens
to whom I have referred. Those who defy
law and scout constitutional obligations will,
if we_ ever reach arbitrament of arms, find
occupation enough at home.” We presume
that Senator Eaton is the same kind of a Re-
publican as was General Jackson who was
voted for almost unanimously as a Republi—
can for Nice-President in this State in 1824.
In 1828 he was elected President by the sham
democracy and rc-elected in 1832 when he
got completely under the control of wily
Martin Van Buren and undertook the man-
agement of the currency,and after appointing
three secretaries of I the treasury, found
Taney a man after his own heart, who re-
moved the deposits from the U. S. Bank and
placed them in what was called ,the Pet
Banks, with orders to loan liberally. The
consequence was the greatest flood of paper
currency ever known in this country,in 1835
and 1836, and the greatest financial crash
that ever happened in any country, in 1837
Banks, people and every kind of business
went to the wall. All of our financial
troubles have originated from sham democ—
racy evcr since our government was formed,
and the first thing that will happen should
the sham democracy succeed in the coming
election, will be some measure that will lead
to a financial crash. This sham democracy
never can do an upright thing unless by'
accident. 1 do not mean that it is made up
of dishonest men altogether, or that all real
Republicans are honest, but that the leaders
of the democracy are born in sin, and that
they originated from the old Federal party
such as comprised the Hartford convention.
Taney was the strongest kind of an old
Federalist; trace them generally and you
will find their origin the same. Gideon
Tomlinson was in the House and Senate
some twenty years and a Republican, but the
sham democracy elected them. Wildman
and Whittlcsy, in this district, sprang from
the old stock of Federalist. I don’t know
the origin of Mr. Eaton, but from his speech
should judge that slavery was the ground-
work of his political sentiments, and that
Taney would have stood high in his estima-
tion.
We are a Republican government and can
have no hope of general prosperity without
an honest administration in the main. If we
must submit to the doctrines of such men as
Pierce was and Seymour of New York was,
when that city was under mob law in 1863,
of course we need no standing army or
anything else, but let mob law reign. We
rejoice that the people in the main are hon-
eat, and all we fear is that they will not
see the danger soon enough. In 1862, we
think, Ohio went democratic, but. the next
year about 100,000 Republican ; it was
soon after such reign in New York and
the Vallandigham doctrine was promulgated
in Ohio. This all goes to show that our
hope rests in the honesty of the people and
the Higher Power that Mr. Seward ventured
to name in Congress. S.

Garfield’s Independence..
From Gary’s Letter to Chicago Tribune.
On a certain occasion, when Garfield’s
name was before the eongressionel conven-
tion at Warren, it was desired by the dele—
gates to obtain a statement from him as to
how he stood on a measure obnoxious to a
very large proportion of the republicans,
which Senator Ben Wade had advocated in
the senate. It was whispered quite loudly
that if Garfield took the same ground that
Wade did on the question, he could not be
nominated.
Finally, it: was demanded that Garfield
should come before the convention and de—
fine his position on this point. He went,
and braver speech from man was never
made. He said: “I regret that ‘Senator
Wade took the stand he did on this question.
I cannot see it as he does. But if any man
expects me to get up here and abuse those
old gray hairs, he expects something he will
never see done. I respect them too much
for that; I respect the man who wears them,
for what he has done in his long and consist-
ent course in congress, too much to submit
patiently to see him abused. He is good,
and he is great. If he erred, it was an error
of judgment, not of heart—one error in a
thousand right actions and noble deeds. Do
we forget the gallant fight for right against
the encroachments of the slave driver ? Do
we forget his noble fight for the Union? No
sir, if my nomination depends upon my
ability to vilify and curse that noble old man,
I hope I may fail.”
The speech seemed to turn the whole tide
of sentiment. It was loudly cheered at any
rate, and it is perhaps unnecessary to state
that Garfield was nominated without opposi-
tion for another term in the house.
I
The New Haven Register in its new born
zeal for blue uniforms calls General ’Hancock
“ahe most brilliant Union soldier of the civil
war.” This is laying it on a trifle thick. N 0
one desires to detract from Hancock’s laurels,
but as a “brilliant soldier,” he is not to be
named the same day with a number of gen-
erals living and dead. It is too early yet to
put the democratic aspirant above Grant,
Sherman, Sheridan, Thomas, Mead, Lyon,
Sedgwick, Hooker, Reynolds, Rosecrans,
Phil Kearney, and several others. He was a
reasonably successful corps commander, who
was wounded at Gettysburg where he did
excellent service in command of a portion
of the field, although his judgment has been
severely criticised by General Hunt,:chief of
artillery, who accuses him of making a blun-
der which nearly lost the day. During his
service he did nothing of special brilliancy
such, for instance, as Sherman’s Georgia
campaign, Thomas at Chickamuga, and at
Nashville, Sheriden in the valley, Terry at
Fort Fisher, and Grant from Donaldson to
Appomattox. The Register should be less
gushing. It is perhaps safe to call him “the
most brilliant soldier, who trains with the
democratic party.” That‘ would be true
enough.—-0wrant.

A gang of sharpersjn Philadelphia have
for more than a year been swindling visitors
from the country in a novel way. They have
a stable ostensibly for the purchase and sale
of horses. When a countryman enters to
look at the stock, apractically valueless horse
is offered to him for $150. A bystander
offers $200 but the dealer angrily says that
he will not sell to this man at any price,
having had a previous quarrel with him. The
bystander draws the countryman aside and
says: “Buy the horse for $150, and I’ll take
him off your hands at $200.” This seems to
offer a chance to make $50 without risk ;
but the victim, after paying the $150 for the
beast, does not see any more of the promised
purchaser with the $200.
—-—-——.—#.
There is a sudden cooling among the
Democrats concerning the soldier vote. They
opened the campaign firmly convinced that
ex-Union soldiers every where would rush to ‘
the Hancock standard. Several weeks have .
passed, but the great stampede has not oc-
curred. They will find that fifteen years
have not sufllced to efface from the soldiers
memory the action of the' “copperheads"
who, afraid to join their .fricnds,'under the
prote ction of the federal government, by their
votes, fought the soldiers as fiercely as did
the rebel in the front. The nomination of
Hancock is too sudden. Much as he is re—
.Spccted for his war record—standing with the
Detmo cratrc'party he will repulse the soldier
v0 0. _ . .

Prof. Henry Draper has stated facts which .
seem to point to the conclusion that it is not
improbable that the planet J upier is still hot
enough to give out light.
That the American people are alive to the
advantages to accuaejfrom scientific research
is amply shown by the interest manifested in
the Boston meeting of the American Asso—
ciation for the Advancement of Science,held
during the week commencing August 25th.
This was probably the largest gathering aa-
vants ever witnessed in this country.
The ”photophone” is a novel instrument
by which rays of light are made to produce
sound. The honor of the discovery of the
applications involved is claimed by Prof. A.
Graham BelITIhe inventor of the telephone.
He lras succeeded in so controlling light vi
brations as to be able to transmit speech by
rays of light, without the aid Of conducting
the wires. In this way articulate sounds
have been reproduced at a distance of about
seven hundred feet.
In Sweden nearly two thousand “school
gardens”baVe been established as instruments
of useful scientific education.
At the request of the Centennial Commis.
sion, a committee was appointed in 1876 by
the Philadelphia Academy of Science to in-
vestigate and report upon the subject of the
insects and plants that might be introduced
to our soil through the medium of foreign
exhibits. The committee now announces
that but thirteen species of plants have been
found in the exhibition grounds, and these
only in isolated specimens showing no dispo-
sition to spread. Some of the species are
from the western part of our country, some
from Europe, while a few of them are from
Japan.
At a recent Berlin bird—show, several
canaries were exhibited which attracted much
attention on account of the peculiar colors of
their plumage. Some were green, others
red and light brown. and others of a soft
gray tint, while all differed more or less from
the light' yellow of the common bird. These
variations of color were produced by the
daily use of cayenne pepper in the food of
the birds. The pepper is given in small
quantities at first, and the birds appear to
like it. The immediate effects are, however,
anyihing but pleasing to the beholder, for the
feathers soon begin to fall, giving the bird
the appearance of molting; but in a short
time new feathers mak their appearance,hav-
ing the curious tints observed.
Tthablochkofi system of electric light-
ing is now in use under almost every possi-
ble condition and in every variety of estab—
lishment—in streets, on bridges, in railway
stations, theatres, circuses, engineering and
industrial works, docks, basins, on board
steam-vessels, in hotels, and in private
residences. King Theebaw, of Burmah, has
sixty lights fitted up in his place at Manda-
lay; the Shah of Persia, has four at Teheran;
Prince Agaklam has six at Bombay; and the
King of Portugal and the ex-Queen of Spain
are also using them. Seventeen hundred and
sixteen were lately reported in use in differ-
ent countries, onehundred and ninety-eight
being in England.
A new process of obtaining stereotype
plates for printing has been discovered by
M. Emile Jeaninn, a sculptor of Paris, who
proposes to employ for that purpose the
material known is celluloid. The process of
preparation takes only half an hogr, when
the matter is once in type, and the plates
thus produced are remarkably adapted for
cylinder machines running at a high speed,
being very light, flexible and durable. In
this last respect they are said to even surpass
nictal plates, affording fifty thousand im—
pressions, whereas the best electoyped plate
will last for only thirty thousand.
Gray hairs sometimes come prematurely
by inheritence, trouble, or the large use of
water containing lime. The sudden dlanch-
ing of a head of hair is frequently caused by
severe nervous shocks, and numerous his—
torical and traditional cases may be cited in
which sudden fear or overwhelming news
has turned the hair white in a few hours.
The case of Marie Antoinette is one of the
most tender and touching, for a single night
her rich dark hair was changed to a silvery
gray. A sepoy of the Bengal army was taken
prisoner in 1858, and the fright he received
caused his hair to become completely whit~
ened within half an hour, the change being
no rapid as to cause his captor to exclaim
in astonishment, “He is turning gray I”
Under the influence of fear or any great
mental shock the blood recedes from the
surface of the body to the heart, and it is
supposed the same influence- may cause the
coloring fluid of the hair to retire to the root
bulbs, where it remains thereafter. Gray
hair has been known to become dark with-
out the chemists aid. In 1774, Nazarelia, a
man 106 years old, was presented by nature
with a new set of teeth and a restoration of
the black hair of his youth. John Weeks
was blesesd with a regeneration of the color
of his hair a short time before his death,
which occurred at the age of 116; and Sir
John Sinclair, dying at 110, rejoiced in a
youthful head of hair during the latter
years of his life.‘ Dr. Richards has reported
the case of a man who had three changes of
his hair from black to white during his life,
the first taking place when he was about 35
years old. ,
Careful and patient counting has show
that a single plant Of purslane will produce
1,000,000 mature seeds. This will furnish a
seed for every square foot of ground on 23
acres. At this rate, the second generation
from a sihgle plant will produce the enor-
mous aggregate of 1,000,000,000 seeds or a
seed for every square foot of 23,000,000
acres. '

“Dear wife, I’m waxing near the end,”
The dying cobbler said; A
“Soon to an upper world my sole
Its lonely way must-thread.
“I fear, indeed, I’m pegging 0m?
But then, what boots it, love?
Here we’ve been a well fitted pair,
And so we’ll be above.
“My ills I know do drugs may heel,
So it’s well to prepare :
We can’t run counter to our fate—
Just put a peg in there!
“The future need not give you care,
I’ve left my awl to you ;
For deep within my inner sole,
1 know that you’ve been true.
“I’ve always given you your rights,
But now you must be left};
However, do not grieve too much
When of me you're bereft.
“A last farewell I now will take.”
He smiled, and raised his head.
“B—last the cruel malady
That lays you low,” she said.
“I’ll slipper away in peace,” be sighed,
“The strife will soon be past.”
His head fell back, he sweetly smiled,
And then he breathed his last.

“Heard ye that mirthful melody? Remote
It rose; and straight the strain, approaching
near,
Caught of the careful cat the critic ear-
Proud dame, in tortoise decked or tabby coat‘
The villain vermin’s vixen vanquisher;
Her frolic paw the festive fiddle smote,
Which, as high Hesper poured his glittering
glance,
Inspired the not un-awkward cow to dance
Above the beamy moon; all this beheld
The dog diminutive,while its strange romance
With laughter loud his bosom swelled;
The dish, high heaped with food of savory
store,
Kissed the bright spoon, by kindred love
impelled-—
Such is the nursery tale of infant lore.”
“Probabilities” from Josh BII
lings.
Josh Billings, who is as usual spending his
summer in the White Mountains, has put it
in the way of the editor of the White Moun-
tains Echo to print a few component parts of
his new book to be published in the fall. Its
title;will be “Old Probabilities: Perhaps ,
Rain—Perhaps Not ;” and it will have for its
leading motto: ”Truth iz sed to be stranger
ban fickshun—it iz to most phplks.” The
Selections are these:
About the hardest thing a fellow kan do iz
to spark 2 gals at one time and preserve a
good average. Try it.
Don’t dispizc your poor relashuns. They
may be taken suddenly ritch sum day, and
then it will be akward to explain things to
them; undoubtedly so.
Next to a klear konshience for solid com-
fort cnms an easy boot. Try both.
If a young man hain’t got a well-balanced
head, I like to see him part hiz hair in the
middle. Don’t you?
I don’t take any foolish chances. If I wuz
called upon to mourn over a dead mule, I
should stand in front ov him and do mi
Weeping.
Thare is no man so poor but what he can
afford to keep one dog, and I hav seen them
so poor that they could afford to keep three.
I say 2 thirds on the ritch people in this
world, make the most 0v your money, for it
makes the most ov you. Happy thought.
I never argy agin a success when I see a
rattlesnaix’s head sticking out ov a whole ; I
bear off to the left and say to miself that
hole belongs to that snaix.
The infidel argys just az abullduz chained
to a post. He bellows and saws, but he
don’t get loose from the post, i notiss. Not
much.
I thank the Lord that thare is one thing in
this world that money kant buy, and that iz
the wag ova dog’s tail. Yurc unklc.
I have seen men so fond of argument, that
they would dispute with a guide boaedztethc
forks ov a. kuntry road about the distance to
the next town. What fools.
There are but fu sights in this life more
sublime and pathetick than to see a poor but '
virtuous young man struggling with a mus-
tach. It is thus.
I notiss one thing, the man who rides on
the kars every day is satisfied with one seat;
but he who rides once a year wants 4. That’s
so.
Flattery is like colonc water, to be smelled
of, not swallowed.
‘ The man whom you kant git to write poe-
try or tell the truth till you get him hafi
drunk, ain’t wuth the investment.
Whenever i see a real handsum woman en—
aged in the wimmin’s rights bizzness,i am
a going to take off mi hat and jine the pro-
cess-bun. See if i don’t.
-rnday Schools for Education
and Evan gelization.
A missionary of the American Sunday
hool Union in Texas, introducing himself
a contributing Sunday school with which
33 commences correspondence, gives the
experience of his four years’ labor on his
field Of twelve counties, covering what is
called the Garden of Texas,already populous,
and rapidly filling up with new settlements,
constantly forming on an ever extending
frontier.
This population is composed of diverse
elements, and so a Union Sunday school
can generally be organized before any other --
agency for education and evangelization can
be started, so doing effective and successful
work where denominational enterprises, if
attempted, would meet with opposition, and,
if established, would divide and weaken
Christian work.
For this reason, and others. four—fifths of
all the Sunday schools on his field were or—
ganized and continue as Union Sunday
schools.
He sometimdds extends his work over into
the Cherokee and Choctaw tribes, among
whom are many whites and negroes, who
often need Christian effort to save and elevate
them even more than their red neighbors.-
Church Union.
A Pennsylvania correspondent sends to the
New York Tribune a poster which bears
the astonishing announcement that “the
J ohnsonville Union Sabbath school will hold
a grand old democratic picnic, on August 28,
in Sands Spring grove.”,;_This, says the Tri-
bune, is a conglomeraticn of youthful piety
and ancient politics never heard of before.
The poster also informs the Sabbath school
grand old democratic picnickers that a “suf-
ficient quantity of refreshments will be pro—
vided on the grounds.” Imagine a moss-
backed bourbon sipping the usual Sabbath
school refreshment of watery lemonade I
Imagine also the tender Sabbath school in-
fant sipping the established bourbon “rc—

They had their usual evening quarrel as
they sat by the hearth- On one side lay
qurctly a blinking dog, and on the other a
purrrng cat,and the old woman pleaded with
her growling husband: “Yust look at dat

Calino does not pass for being courageous.
I met him the other day getting ready to go
up 111 a balloon. “How?” said I, with aston—
rshment, “you are going to make an ascen-
sron—you who hardly dared to get on top of
an omnibus?” “Oh, yes; but now i’m forty -"
“Well?” “Well! Then youdon’t know that
all the medical books agree in sal’in that the
deaths'between forty and fifty are almost in-
significant?”—0/:arz‘vari.

A man out west was offered aplate of
macaroni soup, but declined it, declaring
that they “couldn’t play off any biled pipe
stems on him.”
A retired oyster dealer, speaking of a

said, “.3er hastn’t goltaanyhhcad. It looks all
