One day the Squire himself came by :
‘My horse has lost a shoe, John ;
And its a least of all my cares—
But cares don’t come to you, John;
The lightning struck my barns last night;

And then the Squire rode sadly off.

And, as he watched, two faces bright

GENERAL GRANT'S OPINION on THE DEMO—
onarro CANDIDATE non run runsronxox
THE mama msromr or nanooox‘s GENERAL
ORDER no. 40.
The Cincinnati Gazette prints the report
of an interview between the Rev. C. H.
Fowler, D. D.. and General Grant, which
gives some startling points in connection
with the inside history of Hancock’s Or-
der No. .40. General Grant talked freely
to Dr. Fowler, and after the interview gave
his written consent to its publication under
certain restrictions as to time. The con-
versation took place in General Grant’s li-
brary, at Galena, on the 21st of September.
Speaking of Hancock, the ex.Presideut
said :—
Down to 1864 he seemed like a man am-
bitious to do his duty as an ofiicer; but in
1864, when McClellan was nominated, Hau—
cock received one vote, and that greatly ex-
cited him. He was so excited that he smiled
all over. It crazed him. Before that we got
on well; after that he would hardly speak to
me. I was working to enforce the laws of
congress, he was working for the presidency.
Perhaps he thought I did not praise him
enough; but any way, he hardly spoke to
me. It was on my nomination that he was
made a brigadier general in the regular army.
When I was made general, Stanton told me
it was a compliment to me and that
I could name the men to fill vacancies in the
lieutenant generalship and major generalship
caused by my promotion. I nominated him
for the vacant major generalship to the reg—
ular army. He acknowledged it manfully.
He was a very fair corps commander, but
was never thought of for any great place.
When the army of the Potomac was hunting
for a commander it took almost everybody
-—eveu came over into the west for officers,
but nobody ever even suggested Hancock
for the place. After he received that vote
in 1864 he had ‘the bee’ in his bonnet and
shaped everything to gain democratic and
southern favor. He has watched and planned
and waited, till at last he has received the
democratic nomination.”
“General, do you think he is in sympathy
with the south ?” ‘
“He is crazy to be president. He is am.
bitious, vain, and weak, They will easily
control him.” -
“Do you think, general, that his celebrated
order No.40 represents the direction of his
sympathies ?” .
“Well, I will give you the true, inner his-
tory of order No.40. Congress was striving
to prevent Andreleohnson from undoing the
reconstruction laws. Whenever congress
passed alaw, Johnson bent his energies to
defeat its enforcement and would find pre—
texts to dodge round_it. Then congress would
pass another law to hedge him up there. So
it. went on till congress had taken from him
all control of the generals commanding the
seven districts of the south,except the power
to remove them and appoint others in their
places.’ These commanders could remove
any civil ofilcer of any grade, judge or gov-
ernor. When I was made general and they
were determining} my powers and duties
they gave the general, by accident, I think,
or without seeing all it involved, co-ordinate
power with these district commanders, and
as I was senior, it gave me‘ authority.
General Sheridan was sent to the department
of Louisiana and Texas. He is very shrewd
and very able. He kept his eyes open,
learning rapidly the men who were not
worthy to occupy their places, and discover-
ing competent and worthy men to put in their
places. The Legislature of Louisiana passed
a law authorizing the issue of $7,000,000 of
levee bonds, ostensibly for the levee. They
conditioned their sale on their bringing to
the State not less than 80 per cent. of their
face. The governor and three commission—
ers were to place the bonds on the market,
but they soon found out the bonds would
not bring more than 40 per cent. To avoid
the law they invented the plan of borrowing
money and using the bones as collateral.
They could borrow about 34 or 35 per cent.
of the face on the bonds. Just at this junc
ture, to prevent these men from defrauding
the stale, General Sheridan took off the
heads of the governors and commissioners so
quick they did not know what ailed them
and appointed good men in their places. For
some reason, the removed men were very
anxious to be reappointed. They employed
Reverdy Johnson and another lawyer to
work for them, agreeing to pay them $250,-
000 if they were reinstated. This is a great
deal of money for four men tofpay for po-
sitions, unless there is~some special gain in
the case. Reverdy Johnson came to me, but
I was so stupid and stubborn that I could
not be induced to reappoint them. He went
to Andrew Johnson and made his case, and
Andrew Johnson sent. to me and asked me
to reinstate those men. I refused to do so.
He said : “Reinstate them if it is only for
one day. I will promise that they will re-
sign.” I thought Johnson might not know of
the motive why they were so anxious to be
reinstated, and thinking I Would do him a
great service in keeping him from a blunder,
I told him that one hour would do these men
as well as one day, and I unfolded their in—
tent. But Johnson insisted on their being
reinstated. I refused and excused myself.
Johnson then removed General Sheridan and
appointed General Hancock. He called
Hancock to Washington to instruct himin
defeating the laws of congress concerning
reconstruction. As soon as I learned that
Hancock was in town I called at his hotel
instead of sending for him. I wanted to see
him privately in his own room. I found him
in his room, perhaps before he had his break-
fast. I said: ‘General, you and I are sold.
iers—army ofllcers. We have his positions.
We serve under Successive administrations
without regard to party. It is our duty to
enforce the laws of congress. We are not
responsible for the wisdom Of the laws;
congress'bcars that responsibility. We sim—
ply enforce them.’ He said: ‘Well, I am
opposed to nigger domination.’ I said:
‘General, it is not a question Of nigger do-
mination. Four million of ex—slaves, with-
out education or property can hardly domi-
‘nate 30,000,000 of whites with all the edu-
cation nnd property. It is a question of
doing our sworn duty.’ He said: ‘Wcll, l’m
opposed to nigger domination.’ I saw that
my only chance to influence him was by the
remnant of authority left in my hands. He
costing the government $250. his reasons. I
telegraphed him that the reasons were not
sufiicient; to send by mail other reasons.
He again telegraphed about the same points,
only not quite so long, costing only $150.
~He telegraphed that if he could not have
freedom to act, his usefulness would be de-
stroyed, and that he would have to. ask to be
relieved. I telegraphed him to revoke the
order. He asked Johnson to relieve him, as
no one else could. That is the inner history
and spirit of his celebrated order No. 40.
This order resulted in the loss of many lives.
I know 'of cases and can give thiem. His
statement that the civil authorities are su—
preme is a truth admitted by all in time of
established peace, but I can demonstrate that
he did not subject the military power to the
civil, but that he used his military power to
overthrow the civil.” '
Dr. Fowler, who held the above convcr—
cation with the cmpresident, was until re-
cently editor of the Advocate, a leading
Methodist paper published in New York. He
is now missionary secretary of the Methodist
Episcopal church.
The Oyster Trade of Maryland.
Baltimore Sun.
Baltimore packs more oysters than any
other city in the world. It is the center of
the packing trade, surpassing in that partic-
ular' all other cities, and handling yearly
more oysters than all the other packing
points of Maryland and Virginia combined.
During the season from September 1, 1879,
to May 15, 1880, the number of vessels ar-
riving in Baltimore loaded with oysters was
9,543, a daily average of 37 for 257 days,
bringing 7,252,972 bushels, or an average
cargo of 760 bushels. In addition there
were 25,000 bushels by steamers to hotels,
etc., making a total of 7,277,972 bushels of
which there were, packed raw 3,769,353
bushels, hermetically sealed 2,680,939 bush-
els, and used for city consumption 818,679
bushels. There are 45 firms engaged in oys-
ter packing in Baltimore, with a capital of
$2,338,390, occupying houses, etc., worth
(estimated) $1,360,966. During the summer
these firms are engaged in fruit packing.
They employ 4,167 males and 2.460 females,
total 6,627, and during the season of 1879—
’80 paid to them in wages $602,427. There
were packed 6,459,492 bushels, requiring 25,-
546,780 tin cans and 929,614 wooden cases.
The value of oysters packed, including
shocking, cans, etc., was $3,517,349. For
the cans $794,919 was paid, and for the
wosdeu cases $102,622.
Next to Baltimore, Crisfield is the most
important packing point in the state, being
literally built upon oysters, or, rather oys-
ter shells, which have been utilized to make
new ground. The statistics of oyster pack—
ing in Maryland for 1879—80 season show
that in Baltimore, Crisfield, Cambridge, An-
napolis, Oxford, St. Michael’s, and sundry
small places in Somerset county there are 98
firms engaged in packing; capital employed
$2,492,250; value of buildings occupied,
$1,467,036; males employed, 6,179; females.
2,460; wages paid, $777,779; bushels raw
packed, 5,930,031; value, $2,725,727: bush-
els steamed , 2,623,191; value $1,268,112;
total bushels packed for scasou,7,653,492;
Value. $3,993,848; tin cans required, 25,-
546,780; cost. $994919 ; wooden cases, 929,-
614; cost, $128,822.
Baltimore is the only place where tin cans
and wooden cases are used to any extent,
shipment elsewhere being principally in
bulk. 0f the 6,179 males employed in the
raw trade, about three fourths are colored,
and the majority are very steady workmen,
while the whites are more disposed to be
idle and intemperate. The 2,460 females
are all employed in the steam oyster houses.
They are mostly white girls of from 15 to
25 years Old, and, almost without exception,
of foreign birth or parentage, Au indus-
trious hand can make from 75 cents to $1 a
day. Men in the raw business can make
from $8 to 15 a week. It is a singular co-iu-
dence that Mr. C. S. Maltby and Mr. A.
Field, who respectively established the raw
and the steam trade, were bo.h originally
from Connecticut, and both are still alive, the
former in active business.
About $250,000 is invested in the manu.
factors of cans for oysters. and 400 men are
more positively that all our financial troubles
from 1832 have come from the rule Of the
sham Democracy, and although General
Jackson was honest in his financial acts he
blundcred egregiously through bad counsel.
We shall see precisely the same kind of
blundering in case of Hancock’s election.
He is a good general, indisputably so, and so
was General Jackson, but just look at his
(Hapcock’s) counselors. They are made up
of just such men as said the “war was a fail-
ure” at the very moment it was becoming a
success. When McCullough was retiring
two millions per month, that same species of
advisers went to Washington and made such
a sensation about the country’s being ruine'd
if he did not stop the retiring process, that
he (McCullough) and the government yielded
—-thc result being the distress of ’73. Noth-
ing could ever have produced such a railroad
mania as we had from the stopping of the re-
tiring of Greenbacks and flooding the coun-
try with them. We should have resumed
specie payments in 1870 had it not been for
dishonest advisers. The people, i. e. a ma-
jority, cquld not see the trouble until the
affliction brought them'to themselves. When
they made a set time for resuming specie
payments, what did the Democracy say?
Just what they said about “the war being
a failure.” No country on this earth was
.ever more universally prosperous than this
at the present. What do the leading Demo—
crats say? “We want a change,” “we must
have a change, the war is a failure, specie
payments is a failure, let us have a change."
From whence sprang Lincoln? From whence
sprangGraut and Wilson? In fact all our
honest men came up from nothing, all self
made, real workers that knew honesty to be
the best policy. Can it be possible that the
doings of the last Congress for two years has
failed to open the eyes of the people ? they
have wrought with all their might for a
change, and only wanted 8 Hancock to_ effect
that which would result in ruin. Keep it
before the people. An honest. self-made
man is what we want for President. Garfield
is practical, self-made and honest, and is
going to be our next President, God willing.
The Slaying of the First Born.
Deferred from last week.
. Upon the morning of the 25th of Septem-
ber, I being a Republican saw upon the gate
posts, the sidewalks, the fences, and in fact
upon anything that would contain them, the
mystic figures, 329. I asked my friends
whom I met on the street, what it meant?
Some said it meant 329 cents, some said 329
dollars, one thought some lunatic had
escaped and passed through the town and
that vigilant officer Sullivan DID NOT sun
mar, some gave it up. Some said it meant
the .Republican majority in Norwalk on
November 2d. * I still pondered upon it, and
soon met a friend, who said, “Did you hear
the great cry at midnight in Cobble Hill and
Dublin ? and that the first born of the Demo.
cratic party in Norwalk for 1880 were dead
‘drunk,’ ” said he, “fragments of them have
been found strcwing the road from Westport
to Norwalk.” And I rememberedthe gallant
company I had seen march eastward from
Wall street, in the early evening (of their
sobriety). I remembered the chariot driven
by Ed Lynch, and manned by thunder, or I
should say, by some warriors who constantly
called upon the infants-ry to “fall in," but
alas! they all fell out. I still sought for
more “torch” light, but found it had all been
presented to the pollywogs and squaks in
Peat Swamp, to enable them to guide the
“lame” ducks in their annual migration to
the (solid) South, for, said they, “the No-
vember of their discontent is nigh.” Istill
saw the figures staring me in the face, on the'
pavement in front of my office door. I
hailed a man who said it meant 329 barrels
of new vinegar, cider, ale, lager, and some
whisky that that sympathizing, noble man,
Al. Relyea, had furnished some weary stran-
gers with, because thcyhad no collateral se--
curity to pledge for it, and I remarked I
always did admire ALRelyea, and did he
think it would rain Tuesday night, as I
wanted to go to New Canaan. I thought of
all I had heard and read, and at last it came
to me, or I thought it did, for I am still
questioning why such a strange instrument»
ality should have been employed to mark
employed, whose wages for eight months
amount to $100,000. About 300 workmen,
with wages amounting to $156,000, are en-
gaged in repairing oyster vessels. The city
trade amounts to 818,680 bushels, the open;
ing of which costs $122,802, employing
about 640 men; average wages, $6 a week.
About 500 men sell about the streets with
earning amounting to $96,000. The local
consumption of towns on the bay is 200,000
bushels, paying 150 men $30,000 to shuck.
The total number of people engaged in the
oyster business is 24.60%; wagrs and earn-
ings, $3,820,521; persons supported, 83,345;
capital invested, $6,245,776; total catch in
Maryland last season was 10,569,012 bushels,
7,653,492 being packed, 2,021,840 being ship-
ped out of the state, and the balance used fOr
local consumption.
A Great Evil.
The foe of American social life is in the
tendency to luxury and efiemiuacy among
the well-to do young women of our Ameri-
can cities and large towns. They do not
realize how this dreadful mania for expen-
sive pleasures, and a life of alternate idle—
ness and amusements, is destroying their
health, abolishing true marriage, feeding the
flame of gross sensuality and intemperance
among young men, and saddening the hopes
of the best parents in the land. Some of
them will never know it in this world.
Thousands of good hearted young girls are
sacrificed every year when a little wise and
loving guidance could save them. But we
feel that they will pass away like the flow-
ers of June and a more hardy and resolute
class occupy their places. American society
will shed every class of trifiers male or fe-
male, that does not do its work, as the forests
shed their withered leaves. Let them awake
from their dream of social indulgences;
learn to live out of doors; to build up their
health: to cultivate more simple tastes in
dress, and more moderation in pleasure;
study domestic economy; study social skill
and tact; fit themselves for the noblest po-
sitions ever yet oficredto their sex, and learn
that woman is the soul of American life, not
the tinsel on its garment.
”
This passage in General Grants speech
seems to have a rasping effect upon the
Democrats, "There is not a precinct in this
his ballot and have it counted as cast. No
matter what the prominence of the Opposite
party, he can proclaim his political Opinions
without fear and without proscription on ac—
count of his opinions. There are fourteen
States, and localities in some other other
States, where Republicans have not this pr‘iv
ilege.” That strikes the democrats as “sec-
tional." From the time of William H, Eng-
ilish in Congress in 1860 down to the present
to state truths like those about the Demo-
cratic party has been “seclionalism.” In
fact,\for twenty years there has been no real
difference between scctionalism and patriot-
ism.

Emrous or GAZETTE :—
That the true inwarduess of the Democratic
party continues to unfold itself, is demon-
strated by the following circular addressed
to German Catholics, and published in a
non partisan paper of recent date:
The leaders and members of the German
Catholic Church are now busy at their work
of organization. Already they have thou—
sands of German Catholic citizens mustered
in as members of their secret German Catho-
lic lodges connected with every Catholic
church. They have established a 'secret
German Catholic society, each member of
which has to bind himself by his oath to
stand true to the secrets of the society. The
Catholic priest is the president of such lodge,
and the members must first obtain permission
from'the priest; if he thinks the candidate
to be a good German Catholic then he will
be admitted to join the lodge. Each candi-
date has to be. balloted for before becoming
a member, and a vote of two-thirds of all the
members present in favor of the candidate is
necessary before he can be admitted. After
this vote is taken the new member has to
take an oath that he will strictly keep all
the secrets and stand by the constitution of
the Grand Lodge of the German Catholic
Church. - _
ruruorrnns 0F Tun onoamszsrron.
The main principles of this organization
and of its constitution and byolaws is tbnt
every member shall vote the democratic
ticket; that the democratic party is the party
where they have to look for favors, and that
the Catholic Church is the only true chu'cb,
that the members must work together like
brothers and more so, and that favors must
be extended solely to our German Catholic
Sebret Society and other true German
Catholics. That every member must work
against the system of free schools in the
United States, and that if we cannot do aWay
with free schools we, the German Cath-
olic Secret Society, must see to it that Cath-
olic teachers be appointed to all free schools
and teach the Catholic Bible and Catholic
catechism in all free schools where Catholic
children have to go, and that if we carinot
get teachers appointed it would be bes for
Catholic parents to 'keep their children at
home and not send them to those “black re
publicau. devlish free schools." . All children
who attend our free schoois Will have some
day to go to jails and penitentiaries, and
that their secret organization will fight the
free schools to the bitter end. —,We the
German members, vote for the democratic
ticket and work for the ticket in orderto be
part ruler in such party with a democratic
resident and a democratic Congress, and
,that we will have power in getting laws for
the good of our Catholic Church. That all
members must first obey the laws of the
Catholic Church; and it is_uot enough to bea
good Catholic.
AFTER ran POPE THE DEMOCRACY.
We must fight for the Catholic Church
and believe that we are fighting for the only
true Church. We must first obey the laws
of the Pope. He is the highest law maker
in this world. We must believe that the
Pope is infallible. We must all look for the
United States ; that some day the Pope will
make his home in the United States and be
ruler. We must work that our Church will
some day be the great light in this country.
We must work like brothers, and all work,
for our men, and keep all other churches
down as much as possible. We must only
kcmploy laborers and others who are German
.<
members of the Secret German Catholic
Church are bound under oath of God that
every member shall and must work for the
benefit of the only true Church, the Catholic
Church, and that its members are supporters
of the democratic party, as the democratic
party is at present the only party we expect
help and support from for our only true
Church, and that we approve only of such.
laws of the United States as our Pope and
Church deem worthy. We will fight to the
very bitter end. -
While we have no desire to interfere with
the Roman Catholic rellgion as a religion, by
bringing forward what it is safe to presume
will be claimed by the Democrats as political
capital used for the benefit of the Republi-
can party, we do desire to call attention to
and lay proper stress upon what is so com-
pletely antagonistic to our ideas of free
government. That government gives to,
every man the right to indulge his own
opinions, whether upon religious or secular
matters, but when such ideas as are contain,-
ed in the foregoing circular are made the nu-
cleus around which is centered so much that
is opposed to the American conception of
what constitutes: loyalty, we are fully justi—'
fled in attempting to combat them with all
the energy of which we are capable ; indeed
it would be decidedly uu-Aruericau to let
such a document go unchallenged.
The government Of the United States wel—
comes all nations and creeds, and is bound to
protect them in their legitimate rights; but
when a hierarchy having for its object the
supremacy of the church over the state, set-
ting up its dogmas, and endeavoring to in-
culate treasonable teaching, it becomes every
patriot of whatever color, or political creed,
to rise above the mere exgencies of the mo—
ment, and sink the ambition of the politician
into the superior question ' involving those
institutions upon which our properity as a
republic depends. We are not to be under-
stood as laying the blame of .treasouable
people. To the priesthood alone, belongs the
distinction of so- moulding and‘ concentrating
the minds of those under their charge that
it is only occasionally a man of sufficient in-
dependence of thought can be found to throw
off the trammels of faith in which he has
been reared—and in which he conscientiously
believes—and act according to the dictates
of his own conscience. It takes more than
ordinary boldness and intelligence to with-
stand those influences that the custom of
years has made so powerful. We have come
to look upon the growth of Catholicism is
this country as something to be deplored,
even while we accept it-as the natural con-
sequence of an increased foreign population.
Moreover, we have in too many instances,
come to regard it as an obnoxious subject,
and one that requires the most delicate
handling, utterly disproportinate ‘to our
characteristic fearlessness when called upon
to discuss all other matters pertaining to our .
welfare as a commonwealth. We have an
extreme sensitivencss about what lazy and
indifferent minds from iamistaken notion of ’
liberality, choose to term undebatable ground
therefore not to be lightly entered upon. It
is the very grave' thoughts involved in this
subject that induces us to write frankly and
without undue prejudice against any effort
or combination ‘of efforts. that has for its
motive the destruction, or hindering even, of-
our public school system. Though the so-
in the near future, thanks to the strong bul-
wark of national independence that is about
us, these malicious ,iutr'iguers. and would be
disturbers should be made to uupdrstaud that
ideas. so offensive. cannot be- promulgated
without incurringthe censure they so richly
deserve; for they transcend the privileges
accorded them. as citizens, and- bring cou-
tempt upon the religion they are welcome to,
uphold so . long as they keep it within '
ecclesiastical limits. Asthis is not intended .
as a disquisitiou upon the relative merits of
Roman Catholicism and Protestantism we
leave that portion of the “circular,” which
relates to the desire for the establishment of
Papal power, as represented by the person of
“his holiness the Pope,” to be digested ac-
ceive it. That it is “a consummation de-
voutly to he wished,” however, by those
whose thirst for'absOlute power so frequent-
ly excbeds their patriotism, as well as their
prudence werdo not doubt, but we feel perf
fectly safe in asserting that ecclesiasticism
will never take precedence, over the long
established principles that lie at the founder
tiou of our national institutions, and which.
nothing short of anarchy can ever endanger.
. How far the Democratic partyjs responsi-
bk for sentiments so Opposed to the gener-
ally accepted impression as to what consti—
tutes fealty to our Constitution, is left to the
intelligence of the reader. Having home the
onus of so much that is disreputable and un-
principled, we can readily conceive its un-
willingness to be openly charged with this
crowning act of villaiuy. When we con—
sider that whatever oath of allegiance as a
citizen, a Roman Catholic may take here, is
of secondary importance compared with what
he is taught to regard as his duty to his
church, and that the ruling spirit in the or—
ganization referred to is that which is con-
stantly striving for the ascendeucy, just as it
has striveu in the years that are passed,
with all the might of concentrated energy,
and hatred of protestant institutions, we do
well to inquire what will be the result of the
restoration of the Democratic Party to power,
which in consequence of its long suppression
has become naturally vindictive, and bent
on the full accomplishment of its purposes,
whatever the cost to the Government.-
MAYFLOWER.
'l‘he Sutro Tunnel.
It must be fun to be a miner in the Sutro
Tunnel. The rats and the bats have it all
their own way. The miner who brings his
lunch basket is not at all sure that he will
eat its contents. If he leaves it fora few
minutes the rats eat lunch and basket and
all.‘ '
Nor is his chance for dinner much better
if, instead of the basket, he take the ordinary
tin kettle. A party of rats will steal a kittle‘
before its owner’s eyes and roll it away down
into a hole where no man can follow them.
Then they rip up the lid and devour the con-
tents at their leisure. There are millions of
those rats, and many of them are larger than
kittens, and much more muscular and ra-
pacious.
The bats bother both the mines and. the
mules, When one big bat flies against a
miner's face, and another bar, equally big,
flies in the face of that miner’s mules, there
is a complication of troubles. The man can-
not see which way thcmulc is gorng to kick,
and the male, who cannot see either but
goes it blind, kicks at random and is apt to
hit the man where the but hit him. The bats
are as large, as numerous and as powerful as
the rats. For a man to have his dinner
stolen by rats, then to be hit by a bat and
kicked by a mule, is a combination of
infelicities calculated to mace him wish
himself at work in almost any other field of
labor.
We have revenged ourselves on the man
who let his hens into our garden last year.
- We have presented his wife with a lot of
plants which he will have the felicity of lug-
ging down cedar every night while frosts
lasts, and they willbesureto die about spring

cording as the American mind elects to re-’ “
loading the stuff on a big wagon, struck out
into the country to retrieve their fortune.
They packed their type just as it stood in the
forms, tied up the articles with stout cords
by a process well known to printers, and
packing them closely in boxes, vowed to es-
tablish a newspaper somewhere which would
be the leading exponent Of politics and hit:-
tory of the Pacific cont. Had not an unfor-
tunate circumstance taken place it is evident
that the newspaper which they contemplated
would have been alive to-day. Their jour-
ney over the mountainswas utterly unevent-
ful until they reached Simpson's Station, s
spot well, known to old travelers on that
route. Here they met a party of emigrants
making for Lower, California, and the latter
which they had brought with them across
the plains. .
Twain took a great fancy to this gun, and
offered fifty‘dolls‘rs' "rot: ifl‘with two kegs of
powder. The emigrants were» glad enough
to part with it, as the'y,_coucluded the time
for its use had ,g v'Dan thought the pur-'
chase of artilery and, military supplies was '
a reckless plece‘of extravagance, and said as
much; but Mark replied: '
“When we start our paper we must fire a
salute; a newspaper office wrth .artillery has
a big pulge on the business; no well regula-
lated office in California should be without a
howitzer ; if a rran comes, in for a retraction '
we can blow him into the next county. The
howitzer goes"; g
This silenced argument. and the next day
the two journalists lock the road with their
printing outfit and artillery.
The next night they camped in a mountain
ravine, twenty mfie'sgfrom Simpson’s, and
after building the-usual camp fire, fell asleep.
About eleven o‘clock the horses awakened
them by prancing about, and the two jour- ?
ualists were led to the conclusion that a party
night attack. In the clear moonlight human
forms could be distinguished about half a'
mile away, at the foot! of the ravine. The
idea of encountering Indians had never
entered the heads of‘ the two fortune-seekers,
and they had no arms; suddenly Twain
brightened up, remarking:
“The howitzer l” , ,
“We've got nothing but powder,” said Dan.
“Well; powder'll scare ’em; and we’ll
load her up.” , '
The piece was immediately loaded with a
go‘od big charge, and the two men felt quite
certain that the Indians, hearing the roar of
the gun, would beat auunconditiounl retreat.
The piece was hardly loaded and placed in
position when about forty of the redskins
came charging up the ravine.
Twain seized a brand from the camp fire
and was about to lay it on the touch—hole,
when .Dan yelled, “Hold on 1" as he‘ rammed
something in the nights of the piece and re:
marked“: ' g g '3 ’._ *
“Turn 4e: loose." . '_ ,
The roar of the howitzer echoed through
the lonely f0rest,~and the-savages, with fran-
tic cries of pain, reeled down the ravine in.

stufied column after column in the hOwitzer’s
mouth as the savages came charging on.
Another round from the gun, and the fid-
skin‘s rolled over each other, like boulders
sWept away by ' a mountain cloud-burst.
Mark, in an ecstacy or delight, pulled an.
American flag out of his effects, nailed it to
the tail-board of the wagou,*and was about
to make a speech, when the dusky figures of
the foe were once more seen moving to the
attack. ' . ’ ‘
The piece was again loaded, and this time
with a double charge. Mark's leader ’on
“Law and Order ;” the puff of an auction
house, by Fred. McCrellisb, “as a sickener,"
Dan said; Frank Gross‘s verses'0n “The
Rebel Yell ;" an agriculturalarticle by Sam
Seabaugh, showing the chemical properties-
of corn—juice as an educational lever; ' a
maiden poetical effort by Olive Harper, and
some. verses by Col. Cremony and Frank
Souls completed the load.
“That poetry reaching ’em first will throw
’em into confusion, and my editorial coming
on the heels of the rest will result in a lasting
demoralizatiou. It will be like the last cav-
alry charge of the French troopers at Auster-
lilz.
For the third and last time the faithful
howitzer belched its typographical compli~
ments to the advancing foe. The havoc was
terrible. There was a wild yell frOm a score
of savage throats, and then the but greens
of the dying floated up the ravine On the gen-
tle wind. The two men walked over the
field of slaughter and counted fifty-six abo-
riginals lying in heaps. The 'bOdies were
horribly mutilated with nonpareil,'bourgeois,,
“caps,” misery dashes, and unassortcd pi.
"My leader cooked that man’s gem," said
Mark, pointing to a savage hanging over the
limb of a cedar. , ’
“My geological article'did the business for
him,” rejoined Dan, nodding carelessly at an
Indian, whose head was lying twenty yards
away. 4

AI WE GROW OLD.
As we grow old our yesterds‘ ys
Seem very dim and distant;
We grope,as though in darkened ways.
Through all tint is existent;
Yet far-cl days shine bright and clear
With suns that long have faded,
And faces dead seem strangely near
.To those that lifehasdtaded. :
