Indian Summer.
Oh ! theso day.
Autumn days!
When the languid earth lies dreaming
In n sort or golden Imze;
When amidst the verdant woodlands
Stand tho maples all nlilar-e;
Gold and crimson, brown and orange.
How they rise.
Glowing pyramids of color.
To tho skies.
When the summer tasks are clone.
And the song-birds southward gone.
And no sound
Stirs the voiceless, breathless forest;
Stivo when, far away and seldom.
The ripe acorn strikes the ground ;
Or when leaves
With a melancholy rustle.
And uuitirrcd by any breeze.
Circling downward from the trees.
Spread around
A rich carpet brighter tinted
Than the cunning Persian weaves.
Ohf theso days.
Autumn days I
Who can paint the glow and glory
Of these halcyon autumn days?
Tho Tyranny of Lincoln and Grant.
Heading the speeches, ornate and
grandiloquent, of the Southern gen
tlemen who have welcomed the Pres
ident, one would gain the impression
that vindictive and cruel despots had
ruled this country for the last fifteen
years. That Lincoln, sympathetic
und large-hearted, was a Cajsar. That
Grant, magnanimous and generous
the man who spared the pride of Lee
and his officers, and softened the cha
grin of their defeat by tho nobility
and delieacy with which he received
their surrender was a bloodthirsty
tyrant, who ground dowir a poor, un
happy people to the last verge of pos
sible endurance.
8uch has been the tenor of the re
ception speeches, and in one instance,
at least, the tenor of a speech in reply
that made by Wade Hampton, who
accompanied the Presidential party.
Could there be anything more rid
iculous than this? Wherein have the
Southern people the ex-Confederates,
tho ex-rebels been Illy treated?
When tlieir great crime was defeated
of its object, after our eofFers bad been
emptied, and almost every household
shrouded iu mourning, what revenge
did the Northern people wreak upon
the authors of the war? Did they
hang the leaders of the rebellion for
treason ?
No.
Did they confiscate their property ?
No.
Did they forbid their restoration to
citizenship?
No.
Did they deny them any right un
der heaven enjoyed by those who re
mained loyal to the government?
Not one.
The grass had hardly grown green
over tho graves of the men who gave
up their lives to prevent the destruc
tion of the government before those
who wrought their deaths were in full
possession of every privilege enjoyed
by any American citizen.
What, then, has been the trouble?
Simply this: The Constitution and
the laws give to all citizens, without
distinction of color, the right to act,
speak, and vote as they will, and
pledges them the equal protection of
the law.
This supreme enactment has been
defied, trampled under foot, spit upon,
and insulted, wherever tho absence of
Federal authority has made it safe to
do so.
Accepting tho amendments with
words, the Southern people havo sys
tematically viulated them iu their
acts. Thev havo kept the word of
promise to the ear and broken it to
the hope. Free speech has been sti
lled ; free suffrage denied, and it has
only been by the firm attitude of the
Federal arm, and the known determ
ination of the government to see to it
that acts of violence and intimidation
were punished, that anything like a
republican form of government was
maintained in hrlf a dozen of the
Southern States.
There was no formidable outbreak.
A company of soldiers, backed by a
resolute will and unhamperad by Con
gressional weaklings, was enough to
uphold the laws, and resistance was
only kept alive by the sympathetic
cries of Northern Copperheads and
lily-livered Republicans; but the vac
illating course of tho latter lent the
conspirators courage, and eo the
trouble continued, growing greater as
the stern policy of justice yielded to
the milk-and-water programme of
knock-kneed conciliators.
Here in tho North wo obeyed the
Constitution and the lawe, and res
pected the rights of all men. But the
ex-rebels of the South claimed a priv
ilege we did not and would not enjoy
the privilege of denying the rights
of a portion of their fellow-citizens;
and it has been this claim still theo
retically opposed, but practically .con
cededthat has occasioned the troub
le. It is for insisting on the observ
ance of the amendments to the Con
stitution that Grant and the Republi
can party were tyrannical. It is for
yielding, or for doing what the ex
rebels thus interpret, that the present
administration is lauded.
There is a mistaken kindness that
is more cruel than the sword. There
is a false generosity more bitter in its
results than the law of the bayonet.
We shall see ere long If these mistakes
Lave not been ours.and if it Is not true
now, as iu the days of King John,
that -'Mercy murders pard'ning those

The KeTolntionnry Boys.
From tho New York Observer:
There were tories in all the thirteen
States during the Revolution. .In
Connecticut some were to be found
along the Connecticut river, though
they seldom dared to show their sym
pathy with the British. But at one
period of the war the opportunity of
fered of doing their friends a good
turn in the way of providing the
British cruisers with fresli beef. A
party of tories, about ten miles up the
river, collected a quantity of stock
aud quietly loaded it on two sloops,
intending to sail out with the next
tide. But a small boy spoiled their
plans.
This boy's name was Eliphalet
Brock way. He happeued to be play
ing around the tavern where the To
ries had collected, and, for some rea
son, he suddenly took the notion to
listen to what they were saying In
low tones. He lay on a bench under
a window, and soon learned all about
the plot.
Young Brockway was aB stout a
Revolutionist a9 could be found in the
State (often ho had swept oil whole
British armies in his play-fights), and
his blood boiled as he heard the Tory
plans. Leaving the tavern at once,
as soon as he was out of sight he ran
with all his might to his home aud
raised the alarm. Mr. Broekway,
senior, aud his neighbors got together
at Deacon Marvin's, on Joshua Rocks,
and made up an expedition to break
up the Tory doings. The boys (there
was more than one like Eliphalet,)
were taken along, and before mid
night the party had rowed down to
the sloops. True enough, there they
were, full of cattle one in the stream,
the other at the dock. But the first
one was found to be guarded, armed
with a swivel, and all hopes of cap
turing it was given up. The other
one, however, was unguarded, and,
before the Tories could collect in suf
ficient numbers, the boys had jumped
aboard and were driving the cattle
off the sloop. The men then told the
boys to head the animals across lots
in a
"bee ljne" for Joshua Rocks,
while
they secured the sloop. The
Tories fired around from the swivel,
but it did no harm, and they got
away as fadt as possiblo, in fear of a
general alarm being g.ven. 'Cross
lots the boys drove the cattle and put
them all safe in Deacon Marvin's
barnyard.
Mrs. Marvin asked what had hap
pened, and, like a true general, came
to tho conclusion that some lurking
tories might yet try to recapture the
stock in the absence of tho men, who
had not yet come up with the captur
ed sloop. Accordingly she put on the
Deacon's old cocked hat and military

himself), and went out to watch the
barnyard till help came.
Tim story was told recently at a
gathering of the descendants of these
patriotic boys and their fathers, and
the speaker telling it said that the
Deacon's wife carried a broomstick
that night instead of a musket.
'-No, sir,' chimed in a motherly old
lady present; "she carried a gun ; my
mother wns that woman's daughter,

What She Asked Tommy.
Ho was named Thomas "and she
was named Jane. They sat on a ho
tel balcony yesterday for three long
hours and giving themselves away as
being out-of-towners. As they sat
down Thomas took one of Jane's
hands. She allowed that sort of thing
to go on without a word of protest,
and the flaxen-haired youth finally
seized the otherone. They talked and
talked, and looked down upon the
street, and sighed, and the hours slip
ped away. At the end of the third
hour she said:
'Tommy, dearest, I want to ask you
something.'
'Ask mo a hundred a thousand a
million things!1 he exclaimed in re
ply. 'Well, Tommy, I've got an awful
cold in my head,' she continued, 'and
if I drew one of my hands away and
wiped my nose would you think I
was mad ? I've either got to do that,
Tommy, or let my nose wipe itself.
Just one wipe, Tommy, and then you
may have it back.'
Tommy released her hand, though
he hated to, and her nose was softly
and duly wiped. Del. Free Press.
The Hardest Man in Colorado.
Colorado Springs, Sept. 23. The
hardest man in Colorado is conceded
by a large majority to be the stone
man dug up near Pueblo on laBt Sun
day. The finder, who is a resident of
this place, has this latest wonder on
exhibition here. Barnum, who is de
livering a lecture here to-night, has
offered Mr. Conant $20,000 for his
prize, but the latter wants $25,000.
Public sentiment is divided as to
whether the stone man Is a petrefac
tion, or was chiseled out by the pre
historics or somebody else not quite
so historic, but the majority Eeem to
think that his stoneship once lived,
moved, and had his being.

Farm and Draft Horses.
The Impetus given to breeding
horses for draft purposes by the Im
portation of Percheron-Norraan, and
Clydesdale horses into the country
during the past ten or fifteen years,
has carried the enterpriKO to an ex
tent which, at a glance, is now dis
cerned. But in traveling over the
country and observing the number of.
such horses and the ofKspring of vari
ous grades, showing unmistakable
marks of their origin, some Idea of
the progress made in disseminating
this class of stock, may.be obtained.
The superior quality of the draft hors
es seen in our larger towns and cities
is another indication of the advance
made in this branch of stock-raising.
It has not been very Jong since
these horses were very unpopular.
Twenty years ago they were the sub
ject of much ridicule in every neigh
borhood where the few that had been
imported, were to be seen. The fa
mous old "Louis Napoleon" was the
butt of the jokes and gibes of farmers
and horsemen at the time "Charley"
Fullington brought him from France,
and for some time thereafter. A I
though the price of "Insurance"' was
but $10, his service the first j'ear ex
tended to but three cases outside of
the use made of him by his owners ;
Indeed, it was not until his colts be
gan to show for themselves, that the
value of this animal for breeding pur
poses was at all appreciated. It was
not until then that the value of
this blood as a cross with our Ameri
can stock, began to be seen ; that it
was just the thing to give our horses
greater size, as well as stamina, and
make them more serviceable for farm
and other heavv work. What a rev
olution has since taken place In the
views of farmers on this subject ! The
popularity of this class of horses has
gone on increasing until the capital
invested in tho business aggregates
millions of dollars. Importations of
Percheron-Normans and Clj'desdales
are constantly being made, and the
sales are annually Increasing. A
single instance will give some idea of
tho magnitude to which tin's interest
has grown. Mr. M. W. Dunham of
Du Page County, in this State, made
sales during eighteen months preced
ing October 1875, reaching the enor
mous sum of $160,000.
But notwithstanding that a great
advance has been male there are
thousands of small and inferior horses
for ordinary farm work, bred from
year to year, a vast number of farm
ers not seeming to appreciate the ben
efit derived from raising better stock.
We have often pointed out the sacri
fices that are thus made of time and
money In raising common nondescript
horses for farm purposes. We do not
intend to repent them now, but mere
ly desire to say that with the light
which the past throws upon this mat
ter It is passing strange that any farm
er can bo found so blind to his pecuni
ary interests as to persist in raising
inferior scrub stock. Besides being
better in every way for farm work,
there is a constant and growing de
mand for this class of horses in the
cities for all heavy work. Tho ex
press companies, mail service, large
meroantllo and manufacturing estab
lishments that do their own hauling
require heavy horses. Light and
leggy animals are not wanted, but the
improved clasa obtained by crossing
with the draft breeds command
good prices and a ready market. It is
but a little while ago that we heard
of tho purchase atone time of thirty
of tills kind for one of tho large
wholesale firms of this city. Poor
horse stock is too unprofitable for
anybody to raise. Western Jiural.
A religious journnl objects to trust
ing subscribers, on the ground that so
doing leads them into temptation, and
tends to corrupt good men. It says:
"The credit .system in publishing re
ligious newspapers leads subscribers
into temptation. Knowing Mint they
will not be forced to pay. and con
cluding that the Church will not suf
fer if they fall to meet obligations,
the duty of making payment is post
poned from time to time, and witb
each passing year the authority of
conscience is weakened, and the debt
13 never paid. Thus good men are
corrupted, and Christians backslide."
