Transcribed from a Soldier's Diary for the HOME JOURNAL. jdly 14th 186L “Bad,” says the old man, “run over to Horniky’s and tell him to come np here—some men here that wants to hire him to go a huntin’, I reckon. I send him that word be cause he is sich a great hunter, the Nimrod of old Virginy.” Is he reliable—that is truthful aud faithful to a trust,” says Clint. Oh, yes, he is true blue about everything but huntin’—he will lie about that, or at least you’ll think so wheu you bear him tell all his cock and bull stories about how many deers and bars he kilt, and how he liked to lost his life several times with a bar that got. holt of him. He is a great feller to sing all sorts of songs, and can tell more tales than yon ever heard. He’s a right good fiddler, too, but he lost his fiddle sometime ago scrambling in the mountains try ing to catch a deer he had shot and wounded. He always in gineral took it along and this time he lost it, but he can make a corn stalk fiddle in a few minutes that makes right good music with him holt of it. You jist ought to hear him. Come in Horniky,that’s him now,” says the old man, “how do yon does today?” ‘Tin all hot," suys Horniky— only a little tired. I’s been hunt-; iu’ and kilt a-fine buck this moru- jist got bim skint and put up as Bud come for me.” “Let me make you acquaints* with these men. I don’t know noni of their names, buo tbey’s all sol-; diers from one of them gentleman’s army that had the fight the other day." ‘How do you do, Mr, Horniky," says the seven soldiers in one voice, “We are, glad to make, your ac quaintance, and feel it ah honor to meet the greatest man, as-wo have been told, in -all the mountains of ‘old. Virginy.’ We would JtkKJto hire you to pilot us through the mountains the., nearest and most unfrequented route from liere-to Monterey, or perhaps to Staunton, Va. We are on a special mission from - Head Quarters to one of those places and most get through by a certain .time and wish to take all .the near. cuts and over a way where we won’t be seen often. We are willing to pny you a liberal price for your services, as we feel sure no one could do us such valu able and reliable service as your r self. Do yon know all the by? paths dowu Cheat, across the Val ley, over Alleghauey and through the other Valley between that and the Blue Ridge? How far would yon call it to Moutery and then again to Staunton?” 'I know the mountains,"suys Horniky, “almost as well as if I had made'em mysplf, qn4 it is many.a sight from here to Monte rey. It is still further to Staun ton, yon know. Monterey is be tween the Alleghaney and Bine Ridge in the Valley ; Staunton is beyond /the Blub Ridge,, and a mighty party place.

Well to the best of my uuder- standin’ it is about two hundred sights to Montery and about eighty more to Staunton,” says Hotuiky.

A sight with you according to your computation of distance, amounts to about a half-mile with us. So Iiundrei one hundred and forty, miles, more or less.” ‘Well, that’s it to the best of my knowledge and belief," says Horn-, iky. “I’ve been all over it until I know it like a book, as the feller says, though I don’t know very much|about boobs, more than what I’ve been, told.” “Can’t you read and write ?’’ says Clint " “No, I can’t write, and X don’t reckon I can read like yon fellows.

Others of the party may not have seen the man as I had read him, but I felt lucky that we had (it seemed accidentally) stumbled upon Horniky—especially in our dire extremity to find our way back through the dehse and wild moun tains so many miles ahead of us. “But we are burning daylight,” says Clint, “and must not tarry longer with our goo* 1 and clever friends wGo have furnished us such a bountiful and nice dinner, ahd whom we hope by now to have convinced that we are not too crazy to enjoy something that is good.” “Ha, ha,” laughs the old man, and “ke, ke,” the old lady and ail the gals ; we’ve enjoyed seein’ you eat as much as you have to do it, 'and wish you could stay the bal ance of the day and all night with ns.

The result in Ohio will be less significant, as Ohio is a border State, belonging to the East rather than to the West, but not iu a po sition > to express either Eastern or Western sentiment. The Western reform movement of 1890 was felt in all the Atlantic States except Maine and Vermont, and the present indications are that there will be no reaction from iu. The Democrats are in a posi tion to carry New York against Fassett as the Cnstom House can didate of Harrison and Platt. In Pennsylvania they. are . attacking Wanamaker, Quay aud the Phila delphia National Bank and Treas ury ring with every prospect of success, and in Massachusetts they have been re-enforced by the most active and progressive element of the population of the State. East or West, Democratic pros- pects were never better than they are now. All that Democrats have to do to win this year and next is- to push Republicanism at every point, as they did in 1890. Onions for Chills, Colds, Etc: One day I was taken with chills and headache, says a writer. My quinine box was empty, and I was looking forward to a restless night. Iu desperation I peeled a raw on ion and slowly ate it, then went to bed with warm feet and ari extra quilt, I was asleep iu five min utes, and awakened iu the morn ing quite well. Our homely but strong friend will be appreciated in time as a medicine, and if agri culturalists would turn their atten tion to raising model onions with the strong scent taken out that taints the breath so unpleasantly, families would be putting snob pills in the cellar by the barrel, and the doctors wonld take to on ion farming. The onion acts as a oathartic and diuretic, and may help to break up a cold or lessen the bad symptoms. A doctor says: “I always store a barrel of onionB in my cellar in the fall. We have them cooked twice a week, and whoever of the family is threaten ed with a cold eats some onions raw. If this vegetable were gen erally eaten raw there wonld be no diphtheria, gout, rheumatism, kid ney or Btomach troubles. I know the young men and women are afraid to eat them. One young man went so far as to say to me: ‘If my wife ale onions I would get a divorce the saqje day.’" Happy Hoosiers* Wm- Timmons, Postmaster at Idaville, writes: “Electric Bitters has done more for me than all oth er medicines combined, for • that bad feeling arising from liver and kidney trouble.” John Leslie, farmer and stockqiaii, qtthp same pla^e, says; “-Find Electric Bit ters to, fee the best kidney and liv- er medicine; made me feel like a new man,"- J, W, Gardner, hard- ware merchant, same town, says; “Electric Ritters is just the thing for it man that is all run down, and don't oare whether he lives or dies; he found new strength, good appe tite, and felt just like he had a new lease on life.

Of all the noble, or tender inci dents that thrilled our heaVts While we watched over the flickering life of onr soldier hero, General Grant, none pleased me better than those which denoted his parity. It is said of him that he did not swear, did not tell or listen to vulgar sto ries, and did not hesitate to say to the man who began a narration with the remark that it wonld not do to tell in the presence of ladies, that then it would not do to tell in the presence of gentlemen. If were General Grant's mother. would feel pronder of this record of parity than of his world-wide fame as a commander of armies; believe Jus valor came largely from his purity, and I wish every boy in the world would make him m this respect an example. But General Grant wonld not have been a pure minded man had he not been a pure-minded boy. You know that all boys are not pure in thonght, or word.. Some times when among themselves they talk in a way that they fancy is manly, .but they would not want their mothers to hear them, once stood in a wondrons room in the new palace of the Emperor William near Potsdam. The walls were covered with shells laid in beautiful patterns, and" sparkling here and thre were large and splendid precious stones, ame thysts, rubies, garuers, and they gleamed and scintillated dazzingly in the sunlight. Would you not think the Emperor very foolish if he were deliberately to mar and deface those walls, and tarnish the gems? Yet he would not be as foolish as the boy who defiles and defaces the jewels oj purity in his heart.

A uovelty amoug vehicles in tbis country^ an electric carriage, is now being constructed at the fac tory of M. W. Quinlan, in Brook line, Mass., from plausdrawn from a photograph of a similar carriage present use in Loudon. The battery contains thirty-two cells, and is placed iu the rear end of the body of the carriage. The motor, which is of foreign manufacture, rests between the hind springs, where it is attached to the body by two binge clasps in such a manner as to allow it to swing when the motiori of the carnage is irregular, although this swing is regu^ted by a connecting rod. The driving shafts of ihe motor extend on ei ther side beyond the springs, and are fitted with cog-wheel attach ments which connect by an endless chain with large cog-wheels on the inner side of the real- wheels. The steering apparatus is on the left side of the carriage platform. In case of accident to the motor, shafts can be fitted to the carriage, and horses attached. When com pleted, the whole carriage will weigh about 2,500 pounds. All the electric work is done by the Holtz- er-Cabot Company.—New York Tribune. We want every mother to know that oroup can be prevented. True croup never appears without warn ing. The first symptom is hoarse ness; then the child appears to have taken cold, or a cold may have accompanied the hoarseness from the start After that a peculiar rough cough is developed, which is followed by the croup. The time to act is when the child first becomes hoarse; a few doses of Chamberlain’s Congh Remedy will prevent the attack.
