publicans are in the minority for ob
vious reasons." J.I might come to
this, to b sure, for tbe only place
where it can ever be necessary t
employ farce at the polls is "where
Republicans aie ia the minority for
obvious reasons'' the obvious rea
sons being' eiiber that they are not
permitted to vote or that Democrats
vote w ilh promptness a'td too great
frequency.
Senator Chandler is oyer whelm
ed with letters thanking him for Lis
speeches in the Senate. A business
man ia .Michigan wrote: "I see that
a Washington paper ciaims that you
were drunk when vou went for the
'fraud and violence patriots' tbe
other day. If this is 'the way tbe
old thing works' with you, Michigan
wants yon to get drunk every day ou
the same kind of whit-ky." Judging
from the hearty delight expressed
about the same speech in other parts
of the country, this is the prevailing
Republican Sentiment.
All this wretched busiuesr, which
has thoroughly disgusted the country,
honorable Democrats and Republi
cans alike, I tbe first performance t
a Congress Democratic in bjlh
branches. . If there were aio a Dem
ocratic Executive, we should have
seen the remarkable spectacle of tbe
Grst Administration after the war
which wus controlled by the late
Copperheads and late rebels striking
at the Army of the United States in
a bill founded upon the doctrine' of
secession, and defended by tbe same
arguments that Jefferson Davis urged
to justify rebellion. This is a fact
which should go very far toward tbe
indeGaite postpent meet of a Demo
cratic reeturaibn. Harper's Weekly

Tnt Republican State Convention
of Maine has been called to meet at
Bangor on June 2G. The address of
the State Committee invites all
voters to co-operate with tbe party
who dit-eountenance tbe revolutionary j
coarse of the Democrats in Congress,!
who iasist on free election? free
from tbe interference of both the
Army and tbe bulldozers. and who
favor upholding tbe- financial credit
of the Nation against the schemes of
repudiators. The address is thorough
ly stalwart throughout, and gives a
true keynote for tbe coming cam
paign. It is signed by George C.
Wing, C. A. Bjuielle and Fred X
Dow. Subcommittee.
Tin outlook far Republican prin
ciples was never brighter iban it is

are thoroughly united upon principle.
Much that was irritating- ia the pa?t

unaiiimeus approval of the party.
Tbe revolutionary atiiiude of the

we were right and they were wrong;
tbat do Republican S ale should

Still I hope, 'as a matter of courtesy
to some of our erring brethren, that
you will send the delegates.
Truly your friend,

1. S. Some cf the manufacturing
Mates think that a fisht would be
awful. Without a little blood-letting
this Union will not, in my estimation,
be worth a rush - - -
3ir, (said Mr Hill,) I was stand-
in at the door of my hotel id Mont
gomery when that letter wa3 put ia
my hands. I was locking- to see the
prospects from this peace conference.
I do not wish to do anybody injus
tice. I d not know the gentleman
who wr,te that letter. It is only
one of m lay, and it showed a purpose
on tne p.rt ot tbe ivepabucai party
to defev aU efforts, at peacv a ic.
fol adj imieot. I said to a friend
standing by me, "this is terrible ; it
is sad. It the leading Republicans
seek to defeat the purpose of Virgin
ia in this peace convention it will
fail : but, if war shall come, I predict
now that those men who are so anx
ious to let blood for the Union will
never let any of their own blood;
tbey are anxious to-let other people's
blood. ' Tbat is what I eid then.
I do not know whether it came trua
or tot. Did ' Z Chandler" let any
of his blood ? I said more. I said,
"I will veDture that these men et the
Nortb, who are so c!m-jrcus to de
feat this peace moveaieiit will not
only not go iuto the war, but they
will seek easy places and make mon
ey during the w hole time it lists. I
do not know whether any of tLem
did it or not. I will not say they
did. I am mtrtfy stating a fact of
history.
Mr. Chandler took the floor after
Mr. Hill had concluded, ani said:
Mr. President, tbis is the fourth time
sir.ee 1SC1. that allusion haa been
made to a letter written by me to the
Governor of the State of Michigan ;
first it appeared in a newspaper pub
lished in Detroit, a copy cf which
was sen; lo me and a copy was like
wise sent to the late Senator Powell.
The' letter was a private cote writ
ten to tbe Governor and no copy re
tained. Senator Powell approached
me with his copy of the letter and
asked if it was a correct copy. I
told him I did not know; I had writ
ten to the Governor of Michigan a

Sir, this was the cortditioa of af
fairs when tbat letter was written;
aad after Mr. Powell bad made bis
assault upon me ia this bady for it,
I instantly responded, relating what
I have related here now with regard
to the letter, and I said, "I stand by
that letter," and I stand by it now.
Wha. was there in it then, and what
is there in it now ? The State of
Michigan was known to be in favor
of the Constitution and the Union
and tbe enforcement of the law, even
to tbe letting cf blood if need be, and
that was all there was and all to ere
is in that letter. Make the most of

The Senator from Georgia says

Will somebody inform us the exact

ence between U3 is that
in favor cf shedding
blood. .
Mr. Chandler. Nor I, except to
punish treason and traitors. Sir, the
Senator is not the man to stand uoon
this floor and talk abcut ether men
saving their own blood. Ho took
mighty good care to put bis blood ia
Fort Lafayette where he was out of
tbe way of rebel bullets as well as
Union bullets. I Id is tbe last man to
stand up here and talk to me
abcut letting tho blood of others be
shed.
Mr. President, I was then, as I am
now, in favor of the Government cf
the United States. Then, as now, I
abhorred the idea of State sovereign
ty over National sovereignty. Then,
as now, I was prepared even to shed
blood to save this glorious Govern
ment. Then, a now, I stood op for
the Constitution and the Union.
Then, as now, I was in favor of the
perpetuity cf this glorious Govern
ment. Bat the Senator from Georgia
was,' as he testified before a commit
tee, "a Union secessionist. " I have
tbe testimony here before me. Will
somebody explain what tbat means
"a L nion secessionist 7" Mr. Presi
dent, I shculd like to ee tee diction
ary where the definition ran bu found
of "a Union seceesionii-t ! ' I do net
understand the term.
He Eavs they have a i ight to have

President, the South is no more
solid to-day than it was in the year
5-
Severa! SenalorB i SCI, you

Mr. Chandler Well, ,t was the
same in 1857. It was just as solid
in 1857 as it is to-day. It has been
solid ever since, aad it was do quar
rel wittt tbe ortb Ua.t taafto tv ttolid.
It, was solid because it was determin
ed either to "rule or ruin" this Nt
lion. It tried the "ruin" scheme wi.ti
arms; and now having failed to ruin
this Government with arms, it comes
back to ruin it by withholding tup
plies to carry ou the Government.
Sir, the men have changed since 1 i.
There is now but one member on this
floor who stood here with me on the

You then fought for the overthrow

of the most marvellous ct these ia the

It is Vega or Aloha of the Lyre.
Near it are two fifth magnitude stars

In tbe same constellation is the
wonderful ring nebula, which a good

Good humor ia rightly reckoned a
most valuable aid to happy home life.
An equally good and useful faculty
is a sente cf humor or the capacity
to have a tittle fun ' along with tbe
humdrum cares and work of life. Wa
all know bow it brigbteas np things
generally, to have a liveiy witty
companion, who sees the ridiculous
points of things, and who can turn
annoyance into an occasion for laugh
ter. It does a great deal better to
laugb over some domestic mishaps
than to cry or scold over them.
Many homes and lives are dull be
cause they are allowed to become too
deeply impressed with a sense of the
cares and responsibilities of life to
recognize iu bright and especially its
mirthful side. Into such a house,
0cd but dull, the advent of a witty,
humorous frient is like sunshine on a
cloudy day. While it is always op
pressive to bear persons trying to say
witty or funny things it is comfort
able to see what a brigbteoer a little
is, to make an effort to have some at
home. It is well to tarn off an im
patient question sometimes, and to
regard it from a humeroua point of
view instead of becemicg irritated
abcut it. 'Wife what is the reason 1
can never find a clean shirt ?' asked
a good but rather impatient husband,
after ramaging all throogh tha
wrong drawer. His wife looked at
him steadily for a moment, half in

comical lock she said, 'I give it np.'
Then be laughed, and they both

According to tbe Rev. Mr. Scod-
der, a missionary in India, four men
bought a quantity vf cotton in co

not iojare it, they bought a cat, and
agreed tbat each ehouid own one of

Each leg was then adorned with
beads and other ornaments by its
owner. Tbe e.t aci-identally injured

being in great pain, rosbed among
the cotton bale), where she had been
accustomed to hunt rats. The cot
ton was totally burned.
The three other partners brought
suit against tbe owner of the invalid
leg to recover the value of their cot

Tbe Lieuienant-Govtrnor of Michi
gan writes the Elmira Hurlxindman
concerning the treatment of tractions
animals embodying the following ex
cellent ideas :
"1 propose lo give yoor readers the
bene tit of a discovery that I made
loof since, tbat is not patented, is
tree to ail, costs sotting ; saves time,
annoyance, irritation, rage, profanity ;
a weak aad futile t ffort to subdue by
brute force; intense perspiration min
gled witb extreme madness, and fi
caily failure, mortification and sur
render. It is a matter that I have
tested thoroughly in practice, aad 1
have learned that animals tbat are
treated kindly are ott apt to be vic
ious cr ugly," Treat them kindly al
ways, young or old ; let them know
mat yoa wiil not ban them; and
more, teach them that yoa are their
best friend. It is very eajy, and also
a very pleasant thing to do, and if
yon oo it the chances are tbat year
cows wiil be kind and gentle, yoor
steers and cxea and your colt and
bcrses wiil be so also. If it is fonnd
tbat any animal cannot be made use
ful by lied treatment, it is beet to gtt
rid of them. Treated kindly from
the start, they yield to it easily.
Professor Miles, when going around
witb me to see my sheep, said :
"What is the 'matter with yoar
sheep ? They do not run when tbey.
see yoa ?
I could 00I7 say in reply that they
knew me, and had come to regard ma
ts their best friend. 1 should feel,
that scmeihieg wss wrong with me
if my domestic animals did not wel
comeme and appear pleased at or
spprosch."
