The present Presidential campaign- in

Demorcet'a Monthly*
This popular parlor Magazine has won for
itself an enviable place in the esteem of
American ladies. Its usefulness, the amontt
furnished for the money, is only equaled liy
its variety, its high tone, and general
literary excellence, hi all these respects it
is far in advance of ilssßonteinporaries, aißl
thoroughly deserves the high favor it has
won. It is marvelous that premiums of
real and great value can be added to a
magazine 6f such cost and character, for
three dollars per year. It proves what is so
often said,. that books tnd newspapers are
the cheapest and best educators in the world.
Address W. Jennings Demorest, 4T3
Broadway, New York.
Beinereat’a Young America,
This enterprising Magazine, which has
already won so large a share of juvenile
favor, enters upon its third year with the
November number, and also increases its
size nearly one half. This change will
effect a great, though doubtless costly im
provement, and is due to the success which
has attended the two years of its existence,
and to the determination of the proprietor
to make it acceptable, not only to its present
class of young patrons, but also to their
older brothers and sisters. The price will
remain unchanged, $1.50 per year. Ad
dress, IV. Jennings Demorest, 473 Broad
way, N. Y.
The Reason Why.
An old negro woman, in accounting for
the lack of discipline among the youngsters,
insists that it is because their mothers wear
gaiters. “You see, when we wore low show,
and ths children wanted a whippin’, we jus
tuk off a shoe mighty quick, an’ guv ’em a
good spankin’; but now, how’s a body to
K‘t a gaiter off in time T So the children
gits no whippin’ at alt now-a-days.”
Lay Hi K»»rC»iU. .
We tak*fleas»r®ln dije<in<£ aMcntla«i<o
the advertisement of Mr. C. A. Rowla<d,
who proposes furnishing our citizens with a
superior quality of Coal on comparatively
moderate terms. In fact, he offers it at,
seven dsflartL feta pet toji tiuwt |ome of us
paid during the lust season—and is really
cheaper, as well as better, than wood.
There are unmistakable indications that'
many of our citizens purpose using coal as a
fUI next winter, and' remijid them
erfthe propriety of hailing Rfuks put iilhair
houses during the summer. A simple
arrangement as grates iu parlors, chambers
silting rooms, business offices, etc., is all
that the w») of deal requires, the Cost of
which will be saved to the consumer before
the winter is half gone. For culinary pur.
poses, of course, the wood will continue to
be used, but the.demand for it being far less,
the price will at all times be within reach of
the humblest. We, therefore, urge our
people to put grates in their houses, and be
2IHT
Good Idea.
A philanthropic journalist, prompted by
pity for suffering humanity and desirous of
cutting down reporting expfinses, has in
vented a speaker extinguisher which is
described as follows: It is a large sheet
iron cone which fits into a grooved plate.
The plate is fixed on the floor, and the cone
fastened above by a chain of sufficient
length to adroit of its descending to the
groove. It is so arranged that at the end of
five minutes it falls and becomes almost
air tight. Every speaker is required to
stand upon the plate, Mid. informed of the
time he can employ. If he exceeds five
minutes, the cone falls and shuts the fellow
under, so that he can't extricate himself or
be heard. The machine bears the motto •
“ Speech is silver ; -silence is golden.”
Street Music.
It has often been a matter of wonder to
many persons where the Italian organ
grinders Spend their winters, and liriw they
serve to pass away their time and earn a
livelihood during the mouths w hen the in
clemency of the weather prevents them
from furnishing music to the million. With
the earliest dawn of spring our ears are
regaled with the choicest airs from Verdi,
Gounod, and other favorite masters, and
during the later years not a, low of the
hafibnaf songs'and vfefl known baftads have
been arranged and furnished by these
street musicians. Much depen is upon the
construction of the instrument, its melody
of tone, and the skill that has been display
ed in its manufacture. While a good
organ is capable of producing harmonious
and agreeable sounds, an inferior,instrtr
inent so tortures and disguises popular
melodies as to render them a great torment
to those who are capable of appreciating
and enjoying fine music. A little Observa
tion as to the performers themselves gener
ally discloses the fact that the Italian
presents the operatic, while the American
solicits yonr pennies in exchange for
the songs and productions of his native
land. Some of these instruments are
very creditable, judging by the sounds they
produce, while others are miserable speci
mens, and deserve to be ignored as a
nuisance. The old fashioned upright hand
organ, with its movable group of dancing
girls, soldiers, and morticians, in miniature—-
the delight of so many little urchins and
the receptacle of so many little pennies,
lias almost entirely disappeared ; the inevit
able monkey, which does so much to en
hance the attractions of the organ and to
collect the revenue, is still occasionally seen.
The Italians are harmless, frugal, and
inoffensive people. Their wants are few,
and their surplus means are often returned
to their friends and. families in the old home,
while not a few, we presume, go there to
tell the wonders of the New World, and
thus induce many more to follow their
example and try their fortunes among us.
Take it altogether, we are rattier fond of the
music of the street organ, but there are
times when tliefe hackneyed strains become
wearisome, and we would fain wish them
back to the dreamy land front whence they
came.

llinla to I’olili cal mccliirgo.
As the season of political meetings is at
hand, it is proper to produce lire following
excellent advice, given by Horace Greeley
some years ago, which Republicans will do
well to heed:
1. Do not fix the day, for yuUr meeting,
and then look up your speakers—they will
already, perhaps, have been engaged else
where feV (hat very day—but secure yoar
speakers first. Let them fit the day.
2. Two prominent speakers, with the I,'cAl
aid at your uomtnand, arc :i«lq>)y sufficient
for any one mass meeting. Let the people
understand these can be relied on, and do
not load your bills with an array of gieat
names, only to disappoint your audience.
3. Have your meetings, if possible, in
doors. One indoor ineeliug, even if packed,
is worth hull a dozen outdoor gatherings.
The fortrier is comparatively easy, and the
latter difficult fop a speaker to epuirql.
4. If you must have out door gatherings,
then seek the grove of woods, and fail not to
erect stands for your speakers, and cover it
with boards, and with nothing else. Can
vass absorbs ami deadens the voice, while
with nothing above the speaker s head, the
voice will waste in the air above, aud iu
five cases out ol'iix he will break dowft.
5. Always put down upon your platlortb,
whether in or out of doors, a piece ot course
carpet to stand upon. Never cover with
oil cloth, unless )on expect your speaker to
be lifeless of dirfl.
6. Consume as little time as possible in
preliminaries, iti marching" and eOnuler
marching. Get your procession upon the
ground with dispatch and proceed al once to
the business of the meeting.
7. Remember your speakers—especially
the more prominent one*—haw families to
support. Their time is valuable, and it
coSts them money to travel on railroads aud
stop at hotels. “Thou shalt not muzzle the
mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn.”
One Senaible Fashion.
By the last advices from the emporium ot
fashions in the city ot Paris, it has become
hashionabfe U> the at rente or
public squares, in walking dresses that
come no lower than the top ot a close-fitting
gaiter, just whete the little foot joins in line
of gracs the trim and captivating ankle.
This fashion is founded on good rhyme,
reason and ‘ ancommon asa»e.’
A COURTING SCENE
BETWEEN MISS SEYMOUR AND THE DEMOCRATIC
SWAIN.
Blushing, twiddling, head averted,
Coy, coquettish, Seymour stood,
Vowing ho should Mas her never,
While she really looped he would.

Said the mixtest Marcy belle,
While she whispered e’er her shoulder,
“Kiss wot—l will never tollI”
“Do not kiss me," cried Miss Seymour
To her democratic swain,
Down whoso red and flustered visage
Sweat-drops poured lik« Summer rum.
“Do sot kiss me”—roundhie waistband
Slipped Mias Seymour’s pretty arm,

[From »our Own Correspondent.
OUR ATLANTA LETTER.
Atlanta, Ga., July 14, 1868.
Mr. Editor: This .city is quite dull,—
Many of the members have availed them
selves of the opportunity offered by adjourn
ment and gone home or pleasure seeking in
a higher altitude.
The Committees are still iu session. The
one from the Senate will make its report
to-morrow. They have been hard at work,
and many conjectures are extant as to the
number who will be excluded, and their
politics. We bear of one Democrat in the
Senate and one Republican, but presume
these reports to bo mere surmises.
The all absorbing topic, aside from the
Senators to bo elected, is the question sprung
in the Senate as to the right of the colored
man to hold office ; but, mark you, this is
only talked of by the Democrats. Invectives
are heaped upou the Republicans as being
the originators of the doctrine, as though
that party were not proud of the blessings
they conferred upon a people declared to be
free, and that too by an argument to which
dicro is, neither can be, any appeal.
The greatest anxiety of the Republicans
is to settle immediately the present pending
difficulties, pass the amendment to the Cou
sUtution, elect Seirotors and State ofliqjrs,
and go to work legislating for the good, of
tine people. Great issues are before them :
that of a judiciary system, which it will
take many weeks to accomplish ; then the
questions of finance, relief, and the tax bill,
beside^. innumerable local issues, will con
sume much time; hence the solicitude
manifested to begin operations aud work
with a will.
Hind that business is very dull in Atlanta,
but merchants are breaking up preparatory
to the falTtrade, which many predict will be
unusually licavy* They predicate this opinion
from the fact that the State will be restored
to the Union, and many who were fearful of
investing, owing to political trouble, will
launch their boat once more on the ocean
of speculatiou. * .
To -morrow, I hope to furnish you with all
Ute proceedings connected with the report of
the Committee appointed in the Senate,
The House'will not meet until Thursday.

Gentlemen—lt is now nearly eight years
that I have suffered from Pneumonia, and
have had tire best advice, but could riot be
cured. I was in the hospital 105 days, and
all that time I spat blood and luatter, but
seeing that 1 coaid not get any better, I
made up my mind and left it. And, fortu
nately, 1 was met by a friend, who recom
mended Dr. Railway & Co.’s preparation.
After taking the first dose of Relief and
wqter, I eould breathe with ease, and felt
all my pains diminishing. I continued
taking two of Radway’s Pills every night,
and a half teaspoonful -of Relief and water,
and also rubbing my chest and throat with
it, and,-thank . God, I feel tnyself perfectly
well. I oiriv took ten bottles of Belief and
three boxes of Pills. I hope that the
authors of said preparation may have a tong
und prosperous life.
