    An Old English l'oslboy.
"The orthodox Ret-up of tlie regular
down-the-roivl Ul pt-loy, when on duty,
consisted, as I have said, of blue or yel
low j;uktt, a very ?hhiy whito haf, Lil'!
cord breeches; tnp-lxots Mith a leather
shield on the ri?ht le to piolcet it Irom
t!e rubbinsr against tlio ioi, and a short
;;wblp lojirfullT nd wonderfully made,
fttitl which to le duly a;pn:i:tcd should
' N sptti lit all event it i beyond my
""cWeriptive powers. I had almost for
gotten ciio article, which was m-t eon-
. )-ciciitiously and invariidily adhered to by
the postboy it was the necktie snowy
white I never lmcmlier to have Fcen a
. colored one. It went twice round his
neck, was of considerable depth, not un
like the ties the late Lord l.rou.shaiii used
to wear, well up to the chin, without any
collar; it was tied in a mysterious !ort of
litile knot, but where the. end wcut to
there was nothing to indicate. I have an
idem they were passed down his back.
The choker altogether you nnu.ht imagine
was a jack-towel tw isted round the "jolly
jiostboyV neck. A yellow waistcoat
with small peafl buttons completed the
- fine-weather toggery, but in ense ithould
rain on the return journey wiih the horses
the poMboy strapped on to the spring of
the jxlch.iise a hng drab coat wilh white
bone button-. Thus (.tiuipped, and with
a large shawl in the pocket of his coat, he
considered himself prepared to meet all
weathers hail, rain, or snow. The undress,
or half dress, of the postitoy, who was
waiting for the " firt turn-out," when he
might Ixsccn at the yard entrance look
ing out for any josting job up or dow n
the road, consisted of a long mikh k-l'rock
of the finest white linen, reaching from
his chin nearly down to his heels, or, at
all events, below the top of his loots.
The object of this w as to keep the w hile
cords and jacket clean ; and directly a job
apicaretl in hight the long frock was oil",
and in an incredibly short lime the J. P.,
or "jolly iostloy," appeared in the sad
dle, riding his horse out of tliC yard, fol
lowed by a helper with the other horse to
put to. Of all classes of persons I know
of none that more rigidly adhered to their
style of dress than the postboy, except the
Quakers, irreverently called by C'obbett
"unbaplized Luttonlcss blackguards."
IS'olMMly, I suppose, ever saw a postloy in
the days of real postboys in a coat, a pair
of trousers, or a colored necktie; and no.
bodj- I supMse, ever knew a jxistboy who
arrived at man's estate, or at least pro
gressed ?o far as to be called a postman.
Why they always remained boys to the
end of their lives I never understood, but
I have known several of them, certainly
over sixty, who were still called postboys.
1 know but one living at the present da',
and he is still called a postboy, but must,
I am sure, Iks over seventy. Why, on the
other hand, are the h Iter carriers always
called postmen? Many of thein arc now
in fact so young thai they are mere loys,
but they are never c alled so. What the
education of the postboy was, or how his
earliest boyhood days were spent previous
ly to arriving at the dignity of the blue or
yellow jacket, 1 do not quite know, but I
have a stroiigMipicin that many of them
qualiiicd by riding the leaders in the
coai lies when it lcc.ame necessary to put
on extra pairs, either on a hilly road or in
consequence of heavy loads, etc. I think
all that I have wen olllciating in that ca
pacity were actual ttana fide Imivs. They
never mounted the regul ar po.-tboy dress,
anil were probably helpers about the sta
bles and inn yard, and looked after the
poor old cripples who worked as the ex
tra leaders in the coach. Land and Water.
Horses finding the Way Koine.
In a recent Tribune appears a clipping
from the Turf, Fitld and Fa nit, giving an
account of a party of "Surveyors saved
by a horse.". , As an evidence that such
intelligence is Siot confined tolhe 'Tndian
ponies," the follow ing will be interesting
to lovers of that noble bea.-t in general ;
In the fall of 1S(1 we w ere campaigning
in Southwestern Missouri; and, on a very
cold evening, it became my duty to re
lieve the chain of pickets in our front. I
started from camp with about seventy
mounted men, alxntt an hour before dark;
made my circuit, dropping the new men
and taking up the old ; and when all had
been rclieed it had become quite dark,
and a slight snow began to fall and the
w ind to increase in force.
We were now about a mile and a half
from camp, if we were to follow the picket
line tiil we struck the road, but, in a di
rect line, not more than half to three-quarters
of a mile; and, wishing to get into
quarters before the storm became severe,
1 concluded to take a short cut for home,
which, like many an attempted short cut,
proved a very long one; for, riding long
enough to have gone several times the dis
tance, it became apparent that we did not
know where we were, and I was forced to
acknowledge that I was not a very good
leader.
In turn several of my mtn w ho thought
they foul 1 do Intlcr tried to lead us; but
all t a no purpose. - It was now nearly
eleven o'clock, snowing and blowing a
gale, wilh a fair prospect of our having
to remain out all night. I had noticed
sn unusual fretfulness and indisposition
to submit to my guidance on the part of
my mare, and it Hashed upon my mind
like an inspiration: Perhaps she c an take
ii to camp! We had dismounted in a
little ravine and built a fire. I gave the
order to mount, and told the boys that I
was going to try IJetsy and see if she did
not know more than all of ns. We
moved out of the ravine, and after getting
well out on the prairie I gave her the re in.
As soon as she realized her freedom 1
found her bearing oil" to the left, and in
alout ten or. fifteen minutes we saw a tire
which, on Hearing it, proved to be the one
we had ju-t left. She showed no inclina
tion to go ir.b the ravine, but shirked
along the edge rtr.ti! she reached a narrow
point. This she leaped, and soon struck
into a brisk trot; and in twenty minutes
more we were sate in camp, much to the
joy of all, for it was feared that we had
been bu.-Jicd.
On several occasions subsequently I
tested llctsy's intelligence, and always
with the lest results. Once, having re
turned at evening from a long scout, I
found camp had been moved, an 1 I could
pet information only as to the direction
the regiment had taken. After about three
hours' bridi ride Fttsy brought me, not
only to camp, but to my own company,
and never stopped till she stood in front
of my tent.
We have frequently heard physicians,
practicing in an early clay, relate how cer
tain of their . horses proed unerring in
their ability to make a bee line (a straight
line) over the prairies for home in the
darkest night- Facts illustrating this are
too abundant to be denied. All horses do
not possess this sense or power, but many
of them do. There is no.hiug improbable
or remarkable about the alove narrative.
An Intrepid Officer.
Tearing madly over the many car tracks
on the Ijowery came a runaway, bridle
less horse. On and on he came with tail
streaming over the dasher and mane erect,
and every inch of progress seemed to in
crease the w ild, headlong speed of the an
imal. The frightened people w ere fleeing
. from the street and seeking places of safety
and refuge, only to emerge again in the
- twinkling of an eye and g:ize in open
mouthed wonder after all danger had
passed. All of a sudden a thrill of horror
ran through this watching crowd, and
every man and woman there involuntarily
prayed "God help him." Before the
words were formed the man who sprang
frcm. the sidewalk had hold of the horse's
mane and quick as lightning he changed
his grip to the ears. The animal was as-
tonished; he almost stood still; and before
he had time to start again his plucky
captor was on his feet and had him, all
trembling with lather, firmly by the fore
lock. Then the people gathered around,
and our hero, whose coat was ripped all
the M ay up the back, and whose panta-
' loons would hardly hang together, an
swered the remonstrance of an old gentle
man, who was angry at being so badly
frightened, that he 'might have been
'killed,' by saying: "It was my duty, sir;
if I had not stopped the horse he might
have killed a dozen people!" This man
is a policeman, but where he belong
could not be ascertained. So it win In;
seen that these much-abused ollicials are
f around sometimes when they are wanted,
notwithstanding the cheap wit and ire

The 'ovembcr Elections.
tW The Albany Journal says the re
sults of Nov. 2 are generally received as
n earnest of a grand Republican victory
in the Empire Slate next year.
V2f" The dimensions of the great Dem
ocratic victory in Maryland are manifest
from the fact that, excluding the ba Mot
et u lied vote of Baltimore, the total I'emo
cratie majority in the State was but 2-0.
t2fIf Uncle Sammy Tilden finds any
thing to rejoice over in the news of a re
duced Democratic vote in the State-at-large
he's entirely welcome to it. Put
New York dow n for a Republican major

JWw York Commercial.
tm The tidal wave of lat year is
sweeping back, and the Democracy every
where are carried away by its under tow.
The Republicans can now enter upon the
Presidential year of 1ST( with the prestige
of victory and the mo.-t auspicious omens
of success. It will be theirown fault if
they fail to conquer. Detroit Tribune.
12?" Altogether 'he results of these No
vember e lections may be accepted as evi
dence of the determination of the people
not to trust the Democratic party any
longer. They have had all they want, and
more too, of Democratic rule, and they
have returned to their first love, satisfied
to trust the only party that has ever been
true and faithful to their interests. 1'ilts
burgh Commercial.
3f In response to a serenade tendered
him at the Washington celebration of the
Republican victories of .Nov. 2 Presi
dent Grant said: "Gentlemen I am
very glad to meet you on this occasion, and
to congratulate you on so good a cause for
rejoicing to the-, entire country as the
elections of last Tuesday. While the Re
publican majorities were not great, they
were sufiicicnt to accomplish the pur
pose. The 'rag-baby' has been entirely
suppressed, and the people now know
what kind of money they are to have in
the future, and I think we have an assur
ance that the Republicans will control this
Government for at least four years
longer."
tW Taken as a whole, yesterday's elec
tions arc a pronounced "Republican tri
umph, and more than counterbalance the
reverses of last year. If the latler was a
tidal-wave that swept away much that the
Republican party had accumulated in a
long lease of power, its present successes
are a tidal-wave that completely drowns
all the hopes recently aroused in the De
mocracy and leaves it more utterly pros
trate than before. Thus crowned with
vic tory, we approach the great contest of
next year, and, if only the promise of ;jood
management held out during the etirrent
yearlw fulfilled, the result next November
will lie a most emphatic triumph for Re
publican principles. Phil. Tilcgraph.
C2T The meaning of the elections is
simply this: The people have notlost con
fidence in the Republican party and do
not trust the Democracy. They still Ikj
lievc that the administration of the Gov
ernment is safest in the hands of the party
that, saved it. If they do not approve of
all that the Republican party has done,
they still believe it t le loyal in principle
ami honest in purpose, which is more
than they can be made to believe of the
Democratic party. The Democratic vic
tories of last year were political scratches
were freaks of popular caprice the Re
publican triumphs of this year are the un
mistakable expression of a well settled
purpose to keep the Republican party in
power, at least for the present. They vir
tually settle the next Presidential election.

A Hopeless Task.
The New York Tribune, which has
been trying to train up the Democracy in
the way it should go, throws up the job
in despair and declares that its " stupidity
is adamantine."
Nothing penetrates it. When the people,
rising up against the degeneracy, the cor
ruption and greet! and recklessness of the
party in power, give to the Democrats, as
tlicy did last fall," the opportunity to show
tlieir capacity and their disposition to do
better, the occasion is frittered away and the
opportunity wustcil by some such trcnicn-'
clous blunder as was made in Ohio and Penn
sylvania. It was the same elsewhere. Here in
Chicago, when the people roe en mattae
to stem the fearful title of corruption
which was w helming cvety- interest, where
stood the Democratic party? In the hope
of gaining some petty advantage it boldly
sided with gamblers, thieves and public
plunderers, and " unanhnously" indorsed
them. It was no use that their
veteran leaders, like Thomas Iloync,
Judge Miller, Dr. Davis and oth
ers, protested. Thieves and scoundrels
were indorsed by the Jellersonian Club,
and known to Ihj such. Men fresh from
plundering the county treasury were
fondled in the arms of Dennx-racy, and it
recognized as its leaders the scum of the
city.
if the ballot-box has been tampered
wi!l, the Democratic party, as reorgan
ized, must share the responsibility, for it
refused to interfere for the protection of
honest voters. If "thieves and scoun
drels" are returned to the County Board,
the "Jetrs," be it remembered, pro
nounced them " good and faithful serv
ants." In short, the Democratic party here is
as it is everywhere else the same as it
was before and during the war. It has
learnci nothing and forgotten nothing a
fact w hich it demonstrates w henever it has
an opportunity. Chicago Journal.
The Returning Tide.
tiAPT year the Democrats carried the
State of "New York by ou,:jl majority.
Now their majority will not much exceed
10,000, and the Republicans have both
houses of the Legislature.
Last year the Democrats carried Penn
sylvania by a majority of 5,70. Now
the- lose Uie State by about 15,000.
Last year the Democrats carried Massa
chusetts by 7,0:V2. Now they lose the
State by several thousand.
In the Democrats of 'Wisconsin
elected Gov. Taylor by 13,412. Now he
is probably defeated ior re-election ly
ovef !,000.
- n T-i the Republicans of Minnesota
elected their Governor by 5,rlfl. Now
thev elect their Governor by not less than
10.OO0.
Two years ago the Democrats, by as
suming all sorts of false names and dis
guises, carried the State of Illinois. Now
the recent result at county elections shows
that the Republican party is stronger than
ever.
In 1S73 the Democrats of Ohio elected
old Bill Allen Governor by 817 majority.
Last month he was defeated for re-election
by alxnit f,XK).
It is very evident that the people are
waking up to the fact that next year there
will be a Presidential election, and they
are preparing to frustrate the schemes of
the pro-rebel Democracy to get possession
of the Government which they treacher
ously tried to destroy. Chicago Journal.
How It Was Done in Mississippi.
A cour.EsroNDENT of the Cincinnati
Commercial, writing from Jackson, tells
how the thing was done in Mississippi.
There was universal apprehension of an
outbreak, and a great many families were
sent to Yicksburg, that city having been
so garrisoned with police and special offi
cers as to be considered safe. All the whites
were armed, and all the negroes knew
it. There was a general and polite under
standing that too nuch Republicanism
meant blood ; everyone knew that a single
spark of trouble w ould kindle a war, and
everyone was careful accordingly. When
a negro approached the polls with a Re
publican ticket in his hands he was met
with bantering entreaties to change it for
a Democratic "ticket, and with the memory
of Clinton fresh in his mind he was ordi
narily easy to convert. A favorite trick
was to bet with a negro that he was afraid
to vote the Democratic ticket bet him
two dollars; and pay him the money after
he had won It, as he generally did whether
he wanted to or not. As it was in Jack
son so it was all over the Stattvcxcent in
some places where chatfwas discarded to
make room for open threats, which served
qually well. The State was carried by
the Democrats as much by terrorism as
though they had driven the colored men
from the iolls at the bayonet's point.

How the Law Was Administered by a
Colorado Justice.
Jim Barker, a well-know n character of
the mountains, who.-e latch friu.r hangs
out at the brad of Bine Lizzanl gulch,
Was duly elected a Justice of the Peace lor
that section of El Paso County at the Sep
tember election, and Mike Irving, a com
rade of Jim's, was empowered ns the exec
utive ofTiccr of his court. Last week Jim
convened his first court, to hear the com
plaint of Elder Slater, a traveling mission
ary, who had caused the arrest of Zimri
Bowles, a resident of the fot-hills, ujxm
a charge of stealing the Elder's one-eyed
mule. Zimri had leen arretted by Irving,
the Constable, while in the act of easing
the descent of the mule down Mr.d Gun
.Mountain, with his lariat fastened to the
tail of the animal. The proof against
Zimri was conclusive. Accordingly the
Justice, after much legal perplexity of
mind, proceeded to sentence Zimri to one
year's confinement in the Territorial Pen
itentiary, which sentence he concflided as
follows: "An' now, Zim, seem' as I'm
alKnit out of tilings to eat, an' as you will
have the coat to pay, I rec kon you'll belter
take a turn among the foot-hills w ith your
ritle, an' sec if you can't pick up some
meat before night, as you can't ttart for
the Big Canon " before mornin'." Which
marketing duty was performed bv Zim
bringing in one blacktail fawn and a rab
bit within the time prescribed as a post
script to the sentence. On the following
morning the Constable mounted upon his
broncho, accompanied by the prisoner
astride of the mule which the Elder had
kindly loaned him, started through the
mountains tor the Penitentiary, where
they arrived the second clay out, their
animals loaded with a deer, two antelope,
and a small cinnamon bear, which they
sold to the Warden of the Prison. After
dividing the money the Constable pro
ceeded to hand over Zimri on the follow
ing mittimus, which is carefully preserved
and may be seen in the possession of the
Warden :

comes with this here, Stole Elder Slater's

Elder had, and I sentenced Zim olticially to
one year in the Colorado prison, and hated
to tb"j it, seein as Zim once stood by mc like
a man when the Injuns had me in a tight
place, an nrter I sentenced Zim to one year

the Arapahoe, an, father, I have heard you
tell that after you was wounded at Sand
Creek, an helpless, it was Zimri's rille that
halted the Indian that was creeping in the
grass to scalp you." An then there was a
tear splash led upon the sentence and I
changed my mind sudenly, as follows: see
ing ns tlio "mule had but one eye, an wernt
nior'n half a mule at that, you can let Zim
go at about six month, an sooner if the In
juns shod get ugly, an, furthermore, if the
Elder sliud quiet down an give in any times,
I will pardon Zim out instanter.

The Warden, after informing Uie Con
stable that lie could not receive the pris
oner upon the commitment ottered, pro
ceeded to explain that he should have
given a bond in the sum of about $:00
to appear at the District Court. Accord
ingly, the Constable withdrew with his
prisoner, when it was agreed between
them that Zimri should give the Constable
his bond for the amount mentioned by
the Warden. Tins was accomplished by
Zimri subscribing his name to an old re
plevin lKnd culling for $:J00. found
among the papers transmitted to the Con
stable by his predecessor. Then, as the
Constable intended returning by way of
Pinon Mountain, to examine a bear den
where he had seen a couple of cubs play
ing last spring, he gave the bond to Zimri
to take back to the Justice. But Zimri,
while on his return, traded the is:0o lond
to a mountain squatter, just in from Mis
souri, for a horse, saddle and bridle, and
the prisoner is believed to be, at this time,
a dashing hunter on the plains. liocky

A Souvenir of Hans Christian Andersen.
As soon as the mourners and friends

day was that of a poor woman who, sim

advanced toward the altar, and, after
eagerly, but in vain, searching all around
for a flower or fallen tw ig, murmured sad

they're all gone," as the tears rolled
clown her cheeks.
" Do you want a flow er, my gxxl moth

the woman's evident distress.
"Ah, yes. good sir! My boy at home

SerTlces for a Bashful Lover.
The Glens Falls (N. J). Mettenger de
scribes a recent suit at law for services
rendered in that vicinitv, as follows:
" A very curious and interesting case at
law has j'ust closed at Thurman, before
James C. Pollard, Justice, and jury. The
defendant was a widower desirous of se
curing another helpmeet or wife, but being
of rather bashful and retiring disposition,
with a very limited acquaintance in soci
ety, he was prone to seek assistance of
others to effect the much-coveted object of
his heart. According to the evidence
given it appears that the defendant on one
or more ex'casions requested the plaintitt
to speak w ilh a certain lady of his (the
plaintiff's) acquaintance on the subject of
a marriage with defendant. Anil defend
ant averred in his sworn statement that he
told the plaintiff: 4 It he could do him any
good be would see it made, good with him
in ilue time.' The plaintiff, testifying in
his own lehalf, affirmed that he had con
sumed in all five and a rjuarter days in
going to see the lady and her connections
to bring a favorable influence to liear for
the defendant, and that he charged the de
fendant four dollars jer day for these serv
ices. Plaintiff also affirmed that he did
not see the latly in eiuestion but once, and
was only in consultation with her and
another lady (not particularized) about
three hours. The Court considered the
price charged exorbitant, and incompati
ble with the services performed, and
that no services actually for the defend
ant's benefit had been rendered. The
matter was left with thejury, who returned
in less than five minutes with the verdict
of 4 No cause for action.' The judgment
against the plaintiff was $-3.46."

the liver out of the milk, strew on the
slices powdered crackers or flour, put on
a little pepper and spice, then fry them in
the butter until they are a little yellow on
both sides.

Daily Cure of House-Plants.
In many instances when the contents of
flower-pots are sprinkled daily w ith water
the soil at the middle w ill become hard
and dry. When the ball of earth becomes
dry It takes water a long time to penetrate
it, and surface waterings do not accom
plish the object. In this case set the pot
in a pail of water and let it soak until the
earth is thoroughly wetted through. If
proper care in the respects above men
tioned fails to induce a proper grow th,
then the plant must be repotted with fresh
earth and have a portion of its top cut
back. Irregularities in shape must be
corrected from time to time by pinching
off the shoots which may start to grow
out of place.
The red spider is quite adverse to moist
ure; the green fly, however, likes it, but
may be destroyed so readily by tobacco
smoke that only neglected plants will suf
fer from this cause. The mealy-bug is so
large that it may be; easily picked off.
Watering must Ihj properly attended to,
and while the plant must not suffer from
lack of moisture the roots must not be
kept saturated with water. The sound of
the pot when struck by the knuckles is
epuite different when the ball of earth is
wet from w hat it is w hen dry. This and
the lagging look of the plant will indicate
that water is needed. A little practice
will soon enable one to anticipate the
wants of the plant and to supply water at
the proper time. N. Y. Herald.
now Deep in the Fall.
We cannot conceive - of a cheaper
method of improving lanel than by con
stantly increasing the depth of the soil
with the plow. To turn over a shallow
soil deeply, throwing a poor subsoil to
the surface upon which small grain is
sown, will seldom prove tc be advanta
geous to the first crop, and frequently it is
quite injurious. Many a farmer has tried
deepening his soil in this manner with
results which l'orevever afterward have
made him an advocate of shallow plow
ing. While no one will deny that a deep
soil is better than a shallow one, there are
many who cannot be persuaeled to attempt
deeper plow ing than usual for fear of in
juring it. Of course, if a man has plenty
of manure to spread over the poor subsoil
brought to the surface when inverting the
soil to an unusual depth he can remedy
any deficiency in fertility; but this is not
always to be had where a greater depth is
desirable. We have ourselves inverted a
poor, thin soil to the depth of a foot or
more and then allowed it to remain idle
for a vear, thereby permitting the poor
subsoil brought to the surface to become
mellowed and sweetened, as it were, by
the rains and frosts of a season, after
w hich it was occupied with crops, and
the results were highly satisfactory.
But as there are few farmers who would
think they could nflbrd this system of
deepening their land, we would recom
mend reaching the same end by easy
stages, say one or two inches every- year or
two, until a good depth is secured. Land
that is to be sown with grain or planted
next spring may be plowed with advan
tage this fall, by putting the plow down
an inch or two clceper than ever before and
bringing that amount of the lower soil to
the surface. This will be acted upon by
the frosts and rains of winter, until it be
comes thoroughly pulverized ami in a
condition to be incorporated evenly with
the older-stirred soil in the spring, and
with great benefit to the succeeding crop.
The next time the land is unoccupied in
the fall let this deepening process be re
peated, ami pursue the system until a
depth of one foot or more has been se
cured. We have millions of acres of old culti
vated land which has never been plowed
to a depth exceeding six nnches, and as
a result exhausted fertility and light
crops, unless manure is frequently ap
plied ami in large quantities. Ko man
who has ever cultivated plants of any
kind upon a soil twelve to twenty-four
inches deep wilneedto le told how much
better it is than one of six inches depth,
either in wet or dry weather. We have
tried this deep plowing upon various
kinds of seils, from a light sand to a
heavy, stiff clay, but neyer w ithout per
manent beneficial results. The only clan
ger to be guarded against is in attempting
to deepen too rapidly where there is no
manure spread upon the poor subsoil
brought up; consequently it is best to
proceed slowly, going down an inch or
two at a time "and at intervals of two or
three years. Ar. T. im.

" All Run Down.
This is an expression that we hear from
doctors when they are in doubt about
the nature of the disease of their patients.
The country seems to be tilled with such
cases, and they arc trying first one remedy
and then another, hoping in vain to find
relief. They generally have Jhe following
symptoms: A general depression of spirits,
witli evil foreboelings, a whirling sensation
In the head when rising tip suddenly, foul
breath, with a bad taste in the mouth,
especially in the morning, pain in the sides
and back, urine scanty and high colored,
frequently voided with difliculty, frequent
headaches, a distressed feeling at the pit of
the stomach, food affording no nourishment.
The patient feels tired an the while, and
sleep affords but little rest. After a time a
dry, hacking cough sets in, followed after a
t'me with expectoration, hands and feet cold
and clammy at times, a general wasting of
the body. In such cases we need a remedy
that will act upon the liver ,kidneys, stotnack
nnd blood at the same time, and when we
use such a remedy it all'ords relief. The
best article for this purpose is the Shakkr
