Just.at that, riiromeot, PhimWele John; a'
shrewd old fellow, appeared on the scene.
He surveyed the group with an anxious twin
kle of the eye.
“What’s the matter, Fanny ! Anything
gone wrong?’’ he inquired.
“Gone wrong! Matter enough! Oh, Un
cle John, he’s a wretch, and he set out to
strike me with a poker."
“And she threw a plate of muffins and the
ham at me! ”
“He's a monster, Uncle John. I'll be di
vorced from him this very day. He’s worse
than a savage!”
“So he is,” cried Uncle John, entering
925 warmly into the spirit of the thing. “So he
is"—strippiug off his coat—“and I'll settle
the matter at once. You stand back, Fanny;
I'll give him such a thrashiug as he’ll be like
ly to remember. Striking his wife with a
poker, indeed! I'll rectify matters;’’ and
Ancle Joe grasped the long-handled feather
duster and flourished it threateningly around

Of course they took Phil and Uncle John
for housebreakers, aud if Fanny’s explana

of her broom-stick, the consequences might
have been serious.
The first moment of calm was seized upon

And Uncle John left the house during this
interesting performance, still firing of the

A meeting has been called at Leavenworth,
Kansas, to choose delegates to the Philadel

at which five thousand people attended, was

General Sheridan reports officially that
detachments of French troops still continue
to be landed at Vera Cruz. He slates that
from bis own observations he has lost all
faith in the sincerity of Napoleon in his state

troops.
Columbus Delano has been renominated
for Congress by the Union party of the Thir

In the Indianapolis (Ind.) District the Re
publicans have nominated General William
Harrow.
Now that deception uas been crowned with
success, the men who brought unutterable
calamities on the country, arc boasting of
those purposes wliich they entertained from
the beginning, but which they found [it nec
essary at first to conceal from the people by
systematic falsehood. There seems to be a
sort of morality in the world, which regards
failure and success as synonymous respect
ively with crime and virtue. Even such a
man as Job, was pronounced a culprit by
his best friends when misfortune overtook
him. In like manner, puffed up by prosper

The Demitcr-ds had presented the spectacle of for-

the name time That Government was in the hands of
their political adversaries; thus proving, to ho me ex

ever characterized them; this, too, when, as the
speaker knew (he being a member of the Government),
that Government was inipj&Pd in a rtiost vnscnipv-

Government, bound by mo constitutional restraints, j
aud in-which the liberties «»f the. neoplc would be at
the mercy of a bare majority of <?oilgress, controlled
by a self-constituted and irresponsible central direc
tory.
2. Resolved, That tbe Democratic party are bow, a»
ever, the only true Union party of the laud; that, we
point with pride to the unselfish and untiring efforts
made by all Democrats and Conservatives, in and out
of Congress, to preserve tho Union before the war
commenced, by conciliation ami compromise, the
only means by which it was formed, and without which
it will never be more than a name; that the refusal of
the Republican party to yield their partisaniprerjfedioes
for tbe sake of peace aud union was the immediate
cause of the war, and posteritv will hold them respon
sible.
3. Resolved, That we will hold all the departments
of the Government of the United States to its official
and solemn declaration, that the war was not prose
cuted for any purpose of conquest or subjugation, but
to maintain the supremacy of the Constitution, and to
preserve the Uuion with all dignity, equality %nd
rights of the several States unimpaired; that the war
having ended by the surrender of the rebel armies,
the ]>eople of the South are subject only to such penal
ties as the Constitution of our common country, aud
the laws passed in pursuance of it, may prescribe,
aud arty entitled to all the rights which that Constitu
tion insures to all the people of all the Htates.

Cold Drinks in Hot XVeatiier.
Many people come to sudden deaths by
using cold drinks iu hot weather. An ex
change says: So long as they can take a
cold drink, a majority of the people care very
little what they drink; although physicians
and sensible people are aware that many
people are annually killed by too frequent or
injudicious use of cooling beverages during
the heated term. For the benefit of our
readers, we recently applied to an eminent
physician for an opinion ou the subject, and
a prescription that would moBt readily meet
the requirements of thirsty people during the
warm weather.
"Ginger,” said the Doctor, “I consider the
very best article, most easily procured and
least expensive for all persons to employ. By
its proper use they may have cold water in
abundance, and at the same time avoid most,
if not all the ill effects produced by the cool
ing abominations a great many people pour
down their throats this hot weather.” “Tell
your readers,” continued the physician, “to
buy a few ounces of powdered ginger, and
every time they are thirsty, let them mix half
a teaspoonful in the cold water they desire to
drink. If a spoonful of sugar or molasses is
added, it will do no harm. -‘Extract of gin
ger” may also be employed by those who pre
fer the article in a fluid form. A bottle of
the extract should be placed near the pitcher
or cooler, and when people drink let them
pour a teaspoonful of the extract in their
tumbler, filling it with water. -‘For my use,”
said the Doctor, ‘ ‘I prefer the powdered ar
ticle, because I believe it acts more benefi
cially. In tbe West Indies this root is con
sidered one of the best preventives for the
summer complaints of the tropics, when it is
properly used aud not abused.”

is believed, will contain more interesting
matter relative to the science than has ever
before been published.

Symptoms—A feeling of contraction, as it i nished with a copy of a letter from Mistress
by a tight band around the bead ; a sensa- most resoectahl* cirt™n°«
tion of fullness and horning about tbe eyes,
accompanied with dizziness aDd pain.
Treatment—The person affected should be
immediately placed in the shade, in a lying
position, with the head somewhat raised.
The head should be bathed either with cold
water, or a quantity of crushed ice, wrapped
in a towel, should be applied, and a physi
cian at ouce sent for. All clothing should
be loosened, especially about tbe neck and
wrist.
Plunder Pretexts oe the Prohibitory
Bino.—The Chicago Tribune, the leading
Republican paper in Illinois, continues its
vigorous warfare upon tbe proposed tariff at
Washington. It aays:
“ T£e issue in Congress on the tariff ques
tion has taken a definite shape. The West
ern members generally are in favor of a tariff
that will yield the smallest amount of reve
nue, and at the same time afford adequate
protection to American manufactures. As
the existing tariff does both these things to
a remarhable degree, the Western members
are opposed to impairing its usefulness, or
reducing its revenue producing power. They
want to “let well enough alone.” It affords
from forty to sixty per cent, of protection to
American manufactures, and it poured into
tbe National Treasury $170,000,000 revenue
in gold for the fiscal year ending July 1,
18G6.
“ On the other hand, the Eastern members
are clamoring for a prohibitory tariff, that
shall cut off importations and reduce the
revenue from imposts $50,000,000 to $70,-
000,000 per annum. Thi9 is the issue. It is
safe to say that ninety men of every hun
dred in the Western States are opposed to
reducing the revenue from the tanflf by ma
king the impost prohibitory. And it may be
further stated, that the Illinois member who
w « ys i the inte rest of the West and of the
National Treasury, by supporting the pro
hibitory scheme, most snrely dig* his political

it will be seen from her letter that she is not
devoid of cunning, and some of the arts some
times resorted to by so called fashionable
belles of another color. Charity appears to
be “ very liappy” In her new relations, hav
ing married a white man and having a “ house

her “ dear cousiu” Kitty, of this city, and
reads as follows:

Kitty, 1 a try named now to a nice young
gentleman, and he is a white man too! But
that in nothing strange to you, for you know
that I wouldn't have a nigger as long as there
is so many white men that wants colored
wives! He is a Louisville gentleman, and
he thinks that T. am the “belle of Mobile
and I am going to keep him thinking so as
long us he has cotton to sell! but, when the
cotton is gone, I don’t know what he will
think then; but as long as he has.got a bale
of cotton I will love him still! Hi a name is
Joe Harris, and that is the name 1 go by as
long as the cotton holds out. But as soon
as it is goue, I think I will change my name
to Johnson agaiu. Direct to Chanty John

eral Clary figured disreputably
The community has been considerably ex
ercised in regard to the rascally conduct of
Brevet Brigadier General R. E. Clary, who
left this city protected by a guard from Gen.
Stoneman. The circumstances are these:
Mr. Duvall, a man ot unquestionable loy
alty, who resided in Philadelphia during the
war, demanded of General Clary the posses
sion of his (Duvall’s) house, which Clary re
fused, but allowed Duvall’s children the pos
session of two rooms; but on the 30tb oi j
June, Gen. C'lary ordered his guards to put |
the children and goods in the street. It was {
done, the General still refusing to leave.
Duvall sued out a writ of attachment against j
him. Tlie Sheriff, in attempting to execute |
it, was resisted by Gen. Clary with armed i
men. Tho Sheriff made a return accordingly. |
The court ordered him to arrest Gen. Clary
for contempt in disobedience, and not re
specting the process of the conrt. The De
puty Sfieriff accordingly took the General
prisoner. He was placed under bonds of
$3,000.
This process was decided void for inform
ality, and tbe Judge, on a new writ, ordered
another arrest. The Deputy Sheriff, on
Saturday, called on tbe General to execute
the writ. The latter asked-trinr to wait a
moment till he called hit orderly, and to the
discomfiture of the Sheriff, a squad of sol
diers appeared in the room. The Geo.ordered
them to put the Sheriff off the lot or kill him.
The Deputy did not like the offensive mo
tion of the bayonets, and left. On bis. making
a return, the court ordered bim to summon a
sufficient posse and the Metropolitan Police,
if necessary, to overcome all resistance. The
Deputy, accompanied by several Metropol
itans, proceeded at once to tbe Marble City,
on which boat tbe General had engaged pas
sage. There was considerable excitement
on the levee, and everybody seemed anxioos
to join the hunt for him. They searched the
boat, aDd not finding him, put the Captain
under bonds not to take him. Tbe General,
however, bad flanked them and bad got into
the Navy Yard, and signalled the But Able
to touch there. Tbe Deputy hastened to
Gen. Stoneman’s Adjutant General to get
an order for military assistance. While they
were detained there, Gen: Clary wan es
corted on hoard the Able by a company _ of
regulars, and four armed men MCompamed
bim to Cairo to prevent his arrest.
