i. ..: have read over and over age”, and
2 .- with fresh pleasure, is that of Ser-
wr . ,: S Prentiss. at New Orleans in 1845.
I .. a.» delivered on the 23d of December,
1. . .iz.:.ivemry of the landing of the Pil-
i ..<. We quote a single passage for its
is to New England and its magnificent
(:illng y of the Union. Unhappily. Mr: Pren~
tiss died before the dark days of disunion and
civil war. If he had lived, perhaps his elo
quent appeals might have done something to
stay the madness of the hour. If these
sentiments prevailed in New Orleans and In
all the cities and States of the South, our
country would have been spared the loss of
hundreds of thousands of lives and hundreds
of millions of treasure. It wrlloo us all
good this week, just after an excitement of
the Presidential election, to read such a
tribute to New England and to our Federal
Union. .
Glorious New Englandl thou art still true
to thy ancient fame and worthy of thy an—
cestral honors. We, thy children, have as—
sembled in this far distant land to celebrate
thy birth-day. A thousand fond assocmtions
throng upon us, roused by the spirit of the
hour. On thy pleasant valleys rest, like
sweet dews of morning, the gentle recollec—
tions of our early life ; around thy hills and
mountains cling, like gathering_ mists, the
mighty memories of the Revolution ; and far
away in the horizon of thy past, gleam, like
thine own Northern Lights, the awful Virtues
of our Pilgrim Sires!
an it II:
The sons of New England are found in
every State of the broad Republic. In the
East, the South, and the unbounded. West
their blood mingles freely with every kindred
current. We have but changed our chamber
in the paternal mansion; in all its rooms we
are at home, and all who inhabit it are our
brothers. To us the Union has but one
domestic hearth; its household gods are all
the same. Upon us, then, peculiarly de-
volves the duty of feeding the_fires upon that
kindly hearth; of guarding wrth pious care
those sacred household gods.
We cannot do with less than the whole
Union; to us it admits of no division. In
the veins of our children flows Northern»
and Southern blood; how shall it be separat-
ed; who shall put asunder the best affections
of the heart, the noblest instincts of. our
nature '1’ We love the land of our adoption ;
so do we that of our birth. Let us ever be
true to both; and always exert ourselves In
maintaining the unity .of our country, the
integrity of the Republic.
Accursed, then, be the hand put forth_to
loosen the golden cord of Union; thrice
accursed the' traitorous lips, whether of
Northern fanatic or Southern demagogue,
which shall propose its severance. But no I
the Union cannot be dissoived; its fortunes
are too brilliant to he marred; its destinies
too powerful to be resisted.

It is a fortunate thing for Shakespeare that

One night we were sitting out in the moon-

ly some one—a poetic—looking man With Ia
gentle, lovely face—said in a low tone: Vf'Did
you ever think of the beautiful lessons the

I CORRESPONDENCE.
The Situation.
Probably the result of no political contest
in this country has ever given so much and
such thorough satisfaction as the one just
concluded. Multitudes of Democrats declare
that they are glad, and the most earnest and
hard working Republicans are both surprised
and overjoyed at the completeness of the
victory. Not only have Garfield and Arthur
been elected, but the House is ours and the
Senate—which seemed hopelessly Democratic
for two years longer—may come into bar-
mony with our National progressive and law-
abiding Republican party at once. Already
an active canvass for senatorial honors in
the States in which Senators are to be
chosen has commenced. That men posses-
sing both the disposition and ability to wipe
away the last vestiges of the fatal doctrine
of Stale SovL-reignly and its legitimate out¢
cone. the Slaveliolder‘s Rebellion, and to
lift us as a united, prosperous and peaceful
people at once to our rigl.tful position ——lhc
mightiest Nation of the world—may be
chosen is the prayer of every patriot. One
feature of this canvass is worthy of remark
and seems to indicate that these great results
may be accomplished. It is noticeable that
the Union Generals who have long been
neglected and overlooked—while the South-
ern States have been placing and keeping
their brigadiers in Congress—are coming to
the front. It is an undeniable fact that our
army contained the cream of our yOuth.
Can a good reason be given for ignoring
them in maturity ? General Hawley in
Connecticut, General Harrison in Indiana,
General Sewell in New Jersey, and new
General Henry E. Tremaine, in New York,
are prominent candidates in their respective
states. All who know their history both in
peace and war, their ability and independ-
ence, will agree- that their election would do
much to perfect and render permanent the
successes recently won, and .to make the
administration of President Garfield the
most glorious in our history. E.
____+__.
What Does the Republican Vic-
tory Mean?
Mnssus. EDITORS :—Permit me to say in
re- aflirmation of the indivisibility of our
common country; the authority of the gov—
ernment, symbolized by the flag, over every
acre of a territory nearly as large all Europe.
It means nationality among, and in its inter-
course with,the nations of the earth. It means
the union of strength and strength of union.
It means the assurance of protection, in the
dignity of manhood, to the citizens of the
Republic, of whatever color or rank, sleep-
ing or waking, upon land or sea, at home or
abroad, anywhere on the planet. It means
liberty and right, the struggling outcome of
uncounted centuries of oppression and the
tyranny of ignorance, governed and regula—
ted by law.
It means free schools, upon which It is safe
to base free investigation, free thought, free
speech, free press and freedom, and an even
chance for all men, in the genuine sense of
that plural noun. It means an emphasis to
the mind and the man and the enlarging of
his capabilities, and his right to stand as the
noblest work of God.
It was Jefferson who said “Error cannot
long make headway where reason is left free
to combat it.”
Our victory’ upon the late battle field, a
continent in extent, which exhibits not a
mound of the killed nor a cot of the wound-
ed, means the better comprehension of
justice and the rights and duties of the nation
and states and persons. It means a growing
ascendancy and visibly increasing power of
the Divine gift of reason, which. like all
other of the Creator's principles developes
by progression and progresses by develop—
ment. .
Light is no use to the blind nor pigs to a
milestone, nor correét political truth to the
party blind and party bound. But the
Democratic'party is moving forward in the
grand scheme of progress. Their attitude
and platform, except for revenue only, con-
tains none of the rallying points of a few
years ago. They are; among the settled
points in history. They are known only as
objects in the past over which the Democracy
blundered'and fell, badly weakened in their
efforts to avert the inevitable, They are like
the ram that attacked the locomotive, show-
ing good pluck but ruinous judgment, and
now all there is left of them is a few canton-
ments of their forces in party power and a
disgusting history. They aremoving forward
by» moving out, not lost to retrospect nor to
memory dear. Some of their Southern
leaders are calling for a reorganization of
parties. But What good will a rs-organization
of the‘ same materials be?
Since slavery and Slavery extension into
the past and present territories is dead, and
Free Trade will never be permitted a real
birth, and state sovereignty in all probability
throttled for the last time, and since territo—
rial popular sovereignty has expired, and
Mason and Dixon‘s line is rubbed out, they
can'have little further use for their Northern
Democratic allies who only gave them a min.
one hope of succeeding in measures which
would have involved all hands in a general
wreck.
They did their level best to assist the
South in her attempt to set up a Southern
Confederacy,giving her hope of final success,
even after the fall of Vicksburg and the bat.
tlc ‘ of Gettysburg, after which, every man
on either side killed was murmred, for no
nation or people has a right to commence or
continue a war without reasonable prospects
'_of success. It becomes, then, simple, use—
less slaughter. The Southern sense of honor
must instinctively withdraw itself from com-
panionship in a forgery that would disgrace
any but Northern Democratic leaders, as it
did in the assassination of Lincoln.
It would be better, then, for the South, in-
stead of being solid against the party of
statesmanship at the North, to join heart and
hands with them and conduct the affairs of
the government for the best good of all, and
then there would be wr etchedness enough
in the country to employ a large share of the
time of the philanthropist and reformer.
This wOuld be a mostlhappy consumm‘atiOn
to the_last victory,which means that national
integrity, the basis of credit, so far manifest-
ed,which has placed our bonds at a premium
of four per cent. ; which makes a ten dollar
note to know that its redeeming eagle is in
the vault of the nearest bank, and is a legal
tender the civilized world over, because that
eagle is there to take care of it when it comes
home.
Which means the continued disuse of the
old bank note list or . detector, which our
merchants or storekeepers were oblidged, be-
fore the war, to purchase once a week, and
examine every bill to see the rate of dis-
count, if the bank was broken,,or the bill a
counterfeit; which means a continuance of
‘ of, that fostering protection to our industrial
institutions and mechanical arts which has
converted our portion of America from a
bowling wildernessto a grand nationality of
a thousand cities; which disembowels’ the
earth of its metals and converts them into
railroads enough to three times encompass
the earth, and a net—work of telegraphy
flashing the thoughts of. men over mountain
tops, across plains, through valleys and
ocean depths as the sun flashes the intelli-
gence and will of God.
Tariff protection and patent laws carpet
the floors of the mechanic, put an organ in
his parlor and send his children well clothed
to schools which makes the nation of the
future.
If the mistakes of the past serve as warn-
ings to the coming generations,.something is
gained from them, and the North and the
South, the EaSt and the West, standing at
the cardinal “centers, shall clasp'hands‘ in love
for their Nation. The land of the free and
the favored of God. FRANK BLISS.

MEssss. EDITORS:
I desire again to announce to the Lum-
her-loving and Lumber-buying, public that,
notwithstanding the unprecedented drought
at points of production and the enormous de-
mand at points of consumption, (both of
which items have tended materially to reduce
the supply,) I have now in stock and en route
the largest, most complete and satisfactory
assortment of Lumber ever ofi'ered in this
market. As evidence of this factI refer to
some few items below and respectfully re-
quest an examination of my stock by any one
who contemplates buying. I offer:
750,000 ft. BANGOR SPRUCE TIMBER in
all sizes from 2x3 to 6x10 and 8x8 making a.
specialty this year to keep in stock long

best XXX brand of sawed Cedar and also
100,000 of the same brand of shaved Cedar.
I also have a first—class lot of Rived Pine.
I claim to offer the best assortment of
Shingles in this part of the State, and having
bought for cash and shipping upon low
freights can sell at the lowest price in the
market. If the "deer public" would buy
shingles let them call upon me, for I literally
mean “buSiness” in this respect.
I would also call attention to the item of
100,000 ft. of 5 and 6 inch BARN BOARDS
planed two sides, dressed T. dc G. split from
gang sawed stock boards, absolutely free from
sap and every piece sound as a nut. I'also

The First American Rail“ ay.
The construction of the Baltimore & Ohio
railroad, with a. branch leading to Washing-
ton, was commenced in the early part of
Gen. J ackson‘s administration; and it was
ridiculed by some,while others were positive
that it would never be of any practical use.
At first the cars were drawn by horses, and
for a time a car was propelled by sailswhich,
with a fair wind,made fifteen miles an hour;
but finally a locomotive was constructed and
driven by Peter Cooper, now of New York.
It was a combination of belts and cogs, with
a blower kept in motion by a cord attached
to one of the wheels. English locomotive
builders had asserted that no engine could be
built to turn a curve of less than nine hun-’
dred feet; but some of the curves on the __
Baltimore and Ohio'Railroad were only two
hundred feet, yet Mr. Cooper's engine rah '
around them. Among other evidences ,of-
the excitement caused by this successful'in-l
troduction of “the iron horse" was an oper—
etta called “The Railroad," written by Geo.
Washington Park Custis, the grandson of
Mrs. Washington, and the adopted son of
“Pater Patric." The following song, which
was sung by Mp. Jefferson (whose son now
graces our Stage), will give an' idea .of the
dramatic capabilities of the owner of Arling-
ton, who used to sing occasionally himself
at festive boards :—
AIR—“ The Steam Coach.”
Of each wonderful plan
E’er invented by man,
That which nearest perfection approaches,
Is a road made of iron,
Which horses never tire on,
And traveled by steam, in steam coaches.
Cnonus:
And we’ve 'no longer gee up and gee be,
But fiz, fiz, fiz, off we go,
Nine miles to the hour,
With thirty-horse power,
By day time and night-time,
Arrive at the right time,
Without rumble or jumble.
Or chance of a tumble,
As in chaise, gig‘ or whisky,
When horses are frisky.
Oh! the merry railroad for me;
Oh! the merry rail, railroad for me.
At the inns on our route,
N o hostler comes out
To give water to Spanker or Smiler;
But lolled at our ease,
- . We asked landlord to please
Put a little more water in the boiler.
Caonus:
Andlwe’ve no longer gee up and gee ho. etc.
Conductors won’t fail,
When they carry the mail,
Where the coachmau ne’er loitérs or lingers:
And should robbers approach
Our smoking mail coach,
They’ll rather be apt to burn fingers.

And we've no longer gee up and gee ho, etc.
Courtship on Scientific Principles.
[Max Adieu]
Miss Mary Ellen Flynn was studying medi-
cine and being courted at the same time. Mr.
William Budd was attending to the latter part
of the business. One evening, while they
were sitting together in the back parlor, Mr.
Budd was thinking how he should manage
to propose. Miss Flynn was explaining oer--
tain physiological facts to him.
“Do you know,” she said, “that thousands
of persons are actually ignorant that they
smell with their olfactory peduncle ?
“Millions of ’em I” replied Mr. Budd.
“And Aunt Mary wouldn’t believe me when
I told her that she couldn’t wink without a
sphincter muscle !" ‘
"How unreasonable!” .
“Why, a person cannot even kiss without
a sphincter !”
“Indeed ?”
"I know it is so I"
“May I try if I can 1’”
"Oh, Mr. Budd. it is too bad of you to make
light Of such a subject I" .
Mr. Budd seized her hand and kissed ithat.
She permitted it to remain in his grasp-
“I didn't notice," he said, “whethera—a—
what do call it ?—a sphincter helped me then
Let me try again 1’”
Then he tried again, and while he held hel'
hand she explained to him about the muscles
of that portion of the human body.
“It is remarkable how much you know
about such things,” said Mr. Budd—“really.
wonderful! Now, for example. what is the
bone in the back of the head called 1’
“Why, the occipital bohe, of course!”
“And what are names of the muscles of the
arm ?”
“The spindle and infra-spiralis, among
others.”
“Well, now, let me show you whatI mean-
When I put my infra-spiralis around your
waist, so, it is your occipital bone that rests
upon my shoulder-blade, in this way 2”
“My back hair, primarily, but the occipital
of course, afterwards. But oh, Mr. Budd,
suppose pa should come and see us ?”
“Let him come, who cares P” said Mr.
Budd, boldly. “1 think I'll exercise a sphinc-
ter again and take a kiss.”
“Mr. Budd,_how can you i” said Miss Flynn
after be had performed the feat.
“Don't call me ‘Mr. Budd,’ call ‘Willie,’ ”
he said, drawing her closer. ‘ 'You accept me,
don’t you ? I know you do, darling. "
“Willie,” whispered Miss Flynn, faintly-
“What, darling f”

Perhaps the champion Iill' of Christendom
may be found in Colorado. You meet him in
the man who has real estate and wears-store
clothes; In the prospector who has or has at!
a lode to sell; in the miner digging in the
ground with only a pair of pants on; in the
professional man, tradesmen and bummer;
' all chases have their champions. They smile
kindly upon the tender-foot Illd give hip;

may be that their grand mountains, vast

known to the people of the east and other '
less favored regions. Local or State patriot-
ism overrides nationsl patriotism. religion
or politics, all being secondary-to. the repu-
tation and glory of Colorado, and hence, my
be, arises their inordinate propensity to draw
the long bow and tell fish storied. But,
“with all their faults. we love them still." for
they spin their yarns with an easy,_=gnoeful
flow of language that is astonishing, and
their kindness and hospitality is as wide and
liberal as their imaginations, and you are
soon convinced that it is all done for your
enlightenment and pleasure and the glory 01
their adopted State. .
In matters of business they are as reliable
as any people, and from my experience I
think more so, as one of them told me the
whole truth about a horse I purchased from
him, and that is not my experience with the
jockeyd of Kentucky. But when the pressure
is taken 03 of their honor, and their imgi.
nations are set to work as to what the State
is, or has superior to other states; what their
neighbors have, or what they themselve s
have, or have hadror done, then stand from
under, for they will overwhelm you with
scenes from their imagination as. startling as
say from Munchansen. Asa specimen, a
proprietor told me that he and some compen-
ions were crossing the continental divide
when it was coveredwith snow. Three miles
below them, down a decline of forty-five de-
grees, deeply covered with frozen snow, lay
the spot they desired to reach, while to go
a’round by trail was fifteen miles. He took
a tin pan, used for washing gold, spread his
blanket over it, got in himself. in a squatting
position on his haunches, tucked theblankot
around, held his rifle and other trapsover his
head. and got one of his companions to give
him a push. He informed me thsthe went I
dowu at the speed of sixty mile“ minute,
and shot far out into the valley lit-the foot of
the mountain. When he stopped he found
the soldering of the pan melwd fromlfrictiou,
his blanket on fire, and it was his impression
that had he gone much' further he would
have been burned up, together with all his
traps. He further informed me that he got-
up, waved his hand and called to “the boys"
to follow, but they declined. I presume
they saw how he was smoked from hot
bOxes, and concluded they would try an
easier grade.
IAnother prospector told me his favorite
amusement had been to jump upon a large
bank of drifted snow'and start an avalanche
and ride upon it in its fearful course of de-
struction to the valley below. - 0n ' one
occasion, however, he got turned under, and
when "the boys” dug him out he had both
arms and one leg broken,bcsrdes being other-
wise scratched; sinee that time he has re-'
guided the amusement as a little dangerous.-
As proof of his story he showed me his
broken arm, and I accepted his statement
in regard to the broken thigh: without
further proof other than that he walked game.

The following are sOme of the thingsthe
Coloradoans will tell you that you will not
find entirely correct—principally told by the
Denverites to strangers on their arrival
among them, many of them apparently know- "
ing no more about the State after several
years’ residence than the new-comer knows,
and it is evident from their conversation that
they have taken many things on hearsay,
and perhaps seen no more of the State than
that part which they passed over in coming
to Denver. They will tell you that it does
not get hot in summer nor cold in winter;
that there is a peculiarity in the atmosphere
not to be found nowhere else on earth, and
its sanitary efiects are miraculous; that it is
the great grazing section of the United Stubs; '
that cattle keep fat all the year on the '
sandy plains; that meat will not spoil with.-
out salt if properly prepared (I suppose var-
nished to keep the files off), and that dead
animals are not offensive to the smell; that
Denver is the most remarkable city in the
world; that people do not die here, therefore
worms donot eat them; that a bobtail rat
'dOesnot always get in the hole first; that
mountains are forty or fifty miles away,
when in reality they are only ten. All this
and much more they will tell unto the asi-
tonished and gaping tenderfoot. An East ‘_
Tennessean, a few years ago, came into the
town of Silver-ton, which is 9,400 feet above'
the level of the sea, and was looking around
with some interest when his attention was
called to Mount Kendall, with its base rest.-
ing on the valley in which the town is built
and its top towering some 13,000 feet heaven-
ward. Some of the citizens told him it was
fifteen miles to the top, and it would take
a day to go there and return. He immedi—
ately offered to bet 8100 he could go up and
return- in three hours, whereupon a man,
acting on what the citizens said,took,the bet.
The'I‘ennessean started from the main street
of the. town, forded Animas river, climbed
the mOuntain, waved his flag from the top,
went back to term in less than two hours,
scooped in his money and lived to be the
efficient and accommodating ’ clerk of San
Juan county, and occupies that position unto
this day.

It is related of a well-known merchant of
a neighboring city that, after making his
will and leaving a large property ton trustee ,
for his son, he called the young man in and
after reading the will to him asked if there
was any alteration or improvement he could
suggest. “Well, father,” said the young
gentleman, lightinga cigarette, “I think as
things go now-a-days it would be better for ‘
me If you left the property to the other fel-'
low and made me the trustee.” The old
gentleman made up his mind then and there
that the young man was quite competent to
take charge of his own inheritance, and
