An exchange soya there WS Only One reaping machine in the world that beat Mr. McCormick's, and that was the one that took him away. Tomorrow the democrats will selec) ten delegates to go to Chicago and vote for Tilden and Hendricks; the old ticket and the old barrel. Gov. McEnery, of Louisiana has been duly inaugurated, and that State may be safely counted for from 75,000 to2 00,000 democratic majority, as occa sion may require. There is no reform in the demo cratic party. Congress has refused to remove the tariff on art, and Dr. Mil ler's plea for nude figures shipped from Italy, is not even listened to. Senator Van Wyck is delving down into the railroad land grant busi ness, and the day is cold when he docs not stir up some new point of attack upon the land grant syndicates. The twelve jurors of Copiah county Mississippi, who tried the case of "Wheeler, for the political murder of Matthews, have issued a manifesto that they were directly inspired to clear their man. They ought to be shut up in a penitentiary until they had a little less of that class of inspiration, and could know and sec a little justice. As the time for holding the dem ocratic couveution draws on, the fact becomes the plainer that the old ticket will be at least nominated. "Whether the ancient and decrepit sage of Gra mercy Park will consent to poise as a tigure, and open a barrel is not yet a settled question; there is uo issue in the nomination of Mr. Tilden this year, there is not a fair prospect that he will live to formulate a policy were he elected ; hence, it shows the poverty of the democratic party in material when they have to run a campaign on sound ing brass and the lucre of a decrepit millionaire. GIVE USA CHANCE. The Farmer enters its solemn protest against the present mode of getting up state fair premium lists. There are four or five pages of advertising to one of state fair business, and it is so badly mixed up that it is next to impossible to find anything but advertisements. There is little saved to the state board, even though nocharge is made for print ing, as it costs two cents for sending out each list, when one cent would do were it not for the large amount of ad vertisement. About $1C0 in extra postage is required, and by putting from $50 1 $100 more with tha, it would pay for printing a decent pre mium list. Neb. Farmer. AT RANDOM What a chimera is man! What a confused chaos! What a subject of contradictions! A professed judge at all things, and yet a feeble worm of the earth ! The great depositary and guardian of truth, and yet a mere bun dle of uncertainties! The glory and shame of the universe. A new book is entitled, "What can waman Do ?" An answer to the great question c m be found by asking any oaia fteaUed man. Men are women's playthings; wo men nro tii-.: dc-vii'd. When two Vuung ladies kiss each other they fulfil a Gospel injunction. They are doing unto each other what they would that men should do unto them. Nowadays enthusiasm is accounted folly; dissimulation, self-control: truth. cynicism; stiffness of manners, digni ty; deception cleverness; hypocrisy, de cency; selfishness, economy ; free dom of thought, effrontery; and su- perslition, the prop f human morals. What progress in language. "Why is courting called sparking?" asked a Brooklyn young lady of the married aunt. "It must bo because the real Are doesn't begin to flame 'till af ter marriage," was the reply, as one speaking from experience. Written qn a skull: Lamp, what bust thou done with the flame? Skele toa, what hast thou done with the soul? Deserted cage, what hast thou done with the bird? Volcano, what bast thou doue with the lava? Slave, what hast thou done with thy master? . . i .. . . - "Shall I help you to some but'er.Mr. Smith V" asked the host. "No, thank you." "Don't you eat butter?" "No not now. I used 'o, but I have reformed you know. 1 am proud to say I am now a temperance man." "I kuow; but don't see why that should interfere with your eating but ter." "I don't take anything strong." Coolness and absence of heat and haste indicate fine qualities. A gentle men makes no noise: a lady is serene. To remain virtuous, a man has only to combat his own desires; a woman must rosidt her own inclinations and the continual attack of man. The young people of a New Hamp shire church society had met together for a supper and entertainment, and at the close of the repast toasts were in order. The worthy young man who was called upon to respond to the sen ment, 'Qur Sexton," let himself out in the mauner following: "Our Sexton! He it is who sweeps and garnishes the interior of our Sabbath house, and sets ringing the joyful bell that calls our willing fett hither. He it is who hangs upan the marriage altar the bright garlands of earth's choicest flow ers, and when the scene changes and the wedding garment has given place to the funeral pall, it is he who fur Dishes the bier" The woithy young man was as quick as any one to no tice the unfortunate but unintentional pun conveyed in the la6t three words of his speech, and blnshsd deeply as he sank into his seat. But the others laughed real irreverently. Beware of him who meets yon with a friendly mien, and in the midst of a cordial salutation, seeks to avoid your glance. A Nashville man was fined $800 for kissing a school teacher. If it had not been for two or three of the scholars who caught them at it, she would not have charged him a cent. Life often seem but a long ship wreck, of which the debris are friend ship, glory and love: the shores of our existence are strewn with them. How many women would laugh at the funerals of their husbands, if it were not the custom to weep ! A boy who had been sent to carry a silver card basket to a young lady as a bridal present, was asked on his return to the office "if he had found the right place." "Oh, yes." See the girl her self?' "Yes," "Did she seem 6ur prised?'. "Very much so." "Say any thing?"' "Why yes; she fold her moth er she presumed it was plated, but it would be good enough for her aunt out the country. Weak minded men say "money can da anything, ' hence they are willing ta do anything for money. Men commonly inquire one another withont cause, and simply to do some thing; as an idle promeaader in a trar den, breaks the young branches, and strips off the leaves of the most beanti -ful flowers. "Yes, sir." said the liquor dcakr. "it is a good law that prevents anyone from opening a school within oOO feet of a liquor-saloon. School houses are the ruin of the trade anyway. "I do wish ladies could vote," said a Philadelphia woman. "We'd certainly make it very hot for a man who doesnt get up in a street car and give us a seat, if he ever became a candidate." - If much reason is necessary to re main in celibacy, still more is required to marry. One must then have reason for two ; and often all the reason of the two does not make one reasonable being. Men always say more evil of women than there really is; and there Is al ways more than is known. A clergyman's daughter looking over the MS3. left by her father In bis study chanced upon the following sentence. "I love to look upon a young man. There is a hidden potency concealed within his breast which charms and pains me." She sat down and blush Ingly added: "Them's my sentiments exactly papa; all but the pain." Women of the world never use harsh expressions when condemning their ri vals. Like the savage, they hurl ele gant arrows ornamented with purple and azure, but with poisoned points. Stylish young ladies are wearing lit tle fgold kangaroos on their watch chains. Oh, the artful things. Tho momentfhat a man sees a kangaroo he can't help remembering that it is leap year. , A Cedar Rapids editor wants any young lady who jumps at conclusions, to consider him a conclusion. ,r Philadelphia refuses to admit women to the bar, but the saloons will sell to them if they will bring a pitcher to the gate. The life of of a woman is a long dis similation, candor, beauty, freshness, virginity, modesty a woman has each of these but once. When lost she must simulate them the rest of Jier life. A merchant in Boston is under three hundred dollars bail for keeping a monkey iu bis 6how wiudow. The line had to be drawn somewhere. The au thorities never complained as long as he kept the monkey behind the coun ter, which is a very common occur ence in dry good stores; but when it comes to parading them in a show win dow, its a mean corporation that won't kick. The more honest a mm is, the less he affects the air of a saint. Silenco has been given to woman to better express her thoughts. A little child who was playing near a bonfire, suddenly tripped and fell In to the flames. A sportsman happened to be passing and his high-bred dog jumped into flames, and pulled the child out. The frantic mother came swooping down from the house scream ing: "Is he hurt? Is he hurt?" "Dang it, yes ma'am I" exclaimed the sportsman, who arrived on the spot just before she did; "don't you see all the feathering is burnt off his tail ?" The world is divided into two ar mies. Men make ofiensive war, women defensive. Love exalts and excites the tw parties. They meet hand in hand. Love throws himself into their midst, agitating his torch. But the struggle differs from other battles in stead of destroying, it multiplies the combatants.
