How the Rads Feci oil the Situ
ation.
The news of the nomination of Greos
ley and Brown by the Baltimore Con
vention was received by the Radicals
here with an ostensible grin. They
feel confident now of Grant’s re-elec
tion, because they say the Democrats
won’t support Greeley. We hope they
are mistaken. Indeed, we do not be
lieve they are so easy on the subject
as they pretend to be. Many a man,
before now, has whistled to keep his
courage up.— Enterprise
There is a station on the Pittsburg,

called Hanna, in honor of a deceased
citizen of Fort Wayne. A trian stop
ped there the other day, and the brake
man, after the manner of his class,
thrust his head inside the door and
called out “Hauua,” loud and long.—
A young lady, probably endowed with
the poetic appelation of Hannah, sup
posing he was addressing her, and
shocked at his familiarity on so short
an acquaintance, frowned like a tbun
der-c!oud, and retorted, “Shut your
mouth!” He shut it.— Christian Union

“You have lost your baby, I hear,”
said one man to another. “Yes, poor
little thing-1 it was only five months
old. We did all we could for it. We
had four doctors, blistered its head
and feet, put mustard poultices all
over it, gave it nine calomel powders,
leeched its temples, had it bled, gave
all kinds of medicines, and yet after a
week’s illness it died.”
Dr. Livingstone about whom so much
has been spoken, written and conject
ured, has once more come to light.—
He still boldly asserts that he will pen
etrate the most invulnerable points in

energy, unwonted perseverance and
Job-like patience to attempt the ac
complishment of his herculean designs.

Henry Ward Beecher and
Christian Union.
THE CHISTIAN UNION is a Religious
weekly, edited by Henry Ward Beecher,
and published by J. B h\ rd & Cos., 2/ Bark
Place, N.Y'. It comprises 24 pages,
quarto, securely pasted at the back and
trimed at the edges, ready and convenient
for teading. It is the ablest aud best re
ligious paper published; active earnest,
alive on all questions pertainiong to the
growth of a healthy, religious life. Not
blindly bound by creed or by party, not
tied to old conservative notions, and
mouldy superstitions; yet deeply, thor
oughly, truly religious. But two years
old, circulates thousands more than any
other religious paper iu America; but its
rapid growth does not so much surprise
us when we consider that it fully meets
the wants of our t ine,—for Christian un
ion is the very thing, broad-shouldered,
clear-headed, far-sighted, large-hearted.
This is the only religious journal for
which Mr. Beecher writes, or to which h.e
in any way contributes. His character
istic articles of all kinds and the only com
plete and amboaized verbatim reports of
his weekly “Lecture Room Talks,’ as well
as Mrs. 11. B. Stowe’s delightin' (and for
the year 1872 exclusive) contributions aie
attractive features of the paper, while the
various outside artcles aud the admirably
sustained regular departments of the pa
per furnished something of interest to ev
ery member of the family.
“Wide Awake” and "Fast Asleep” a
pair of F’rench Oil Cromos, will be given
away to all annual subsiibers. The reg
ular market price of these beautiful pic
tures is ten dollars, at which thousands of
them have been sold. They are
simply charming, and cannot
fail to please all who love art or children.
The Christian Union one year and both
these chromos will be sent for $3; ten
cents extra for postage; and twenty-five
cents extra for mounting and varnishing,
