CNLAP. Joe Hassett was a queer Jetitus "Uncle .Joe" every body called him and, though poKscsting but very few of the poods of this world yet lie was one of the niOMt useful men in town. If any one wanted mi bid job done he was the man to do it In idiort Le was a tort of universal ".Man Friday,'1 and for a consideration he would pcrloi m any work which illicit be called for. lie wus a happy old fellow; asfullof fun as an cgj; is lull of meat, and he could (rack eoiue very hard jokes without hurting any body. lJu owned a little cttitfrc luck of the viiluge, to which was attached a few acres of good land; und besides this he had a cow and koine other items of stock, lie lived quite couiibrtubly and the impression had (lone abroad that he had managed to lay up some money. C'Mpt. Jianiel Ixiber, who had recently nettled in the town, owned a fine piece of land adjoining Uncle Joc'k lot, and he was not long in making himself very d'lMigreea ble to our pood man Friday, lie was a proud, selfish person, aad a litllo mean withal. Uncle Joe had some geese ami they ran upon Lobeis laud; uj on which the in dignant captain threated to shoot them if lie caught them there again. "Kf yo'd make your fenoc tighter my geesj wouldn't get through,11 meekly tug gftstcd poor Joe. ''My fence is as tight, ns the law requires,'1 atiMvercd the doughty captain aiid with this he walked away. t;o Uncle Joe had to go to work and tight en the fence, aad put larger yoke upon his geese, Lobcr's next move was ngninct his hens. He swore that he would sjioot them if they were not kept out of his lot. Joe built a hen house, and placed his leathered birds therein; but it was a sore trial - to him, and people sympathised with him, though they could not htlp him. One season (.'apt jobcr plowed up his land some ten acres of it and sowed it with wheat. 1 he gram cxuie on finely, and the owner used to take men out thereto show them his field. It was acknowledged to be the best of wheat in town. But the captain was destined to a piece of ill-fortune which he had not thought of. This laud Was at some distance from his dwelling, and when busy at other points a week or two might pass without visiting it. One afternoon he came to see his wheat, mid when he reach ed the edge of the field he btood aghast at the sight that met his gnee. The tall gruin was trodden and trampled down over half of the lot, presenting a scene of havoc and destruction truly horrible to It h.iid. Ami the astounded own r was at no loss to ac count for the desolation, for near the center of the lot lie saw a horse. It was a jaunt heavily built animal, of a dingy white color; and though evidently well stricken with years yet lie capered and frisked about with marvelous spirit now cropping a fuW of the well fiiled wheat heads, and nnoli trnru pling away upon the devoted grain m tho1 he were treading the wine vat. T should not date to tell all the oalhs which Captain Leber then and there poured forth; but they were terrible ones, and the hi!e fbtim Ftood upon his lips ns he raved. As soon as he could collect hi. thought h;i started for Uncle Joe's, lie knew that Joe " must have seen the horse in there for the animal could not have been less than three or four days tit the Work anil perhaps the depredator might beloni; to Joe, Just as ti e Captain reached the mad, he met ir'ani Wanuv. Sam was not a temperance man, nor did he belong to the church, but he was a particular friend. to Uncle Joe, and didn't think much -of Daniel Under. "Mr. Warner," cried the captain, trem bling all over with rage, "docs Joe Kascett own a horse?" 'Taas, b'licvu he does, 'fcVptiro," return ed 8am. "Is it a while one?!1 "Kind o' whitish." "How old is iff "Wa! 'tain't very old nor Very. .Voting. But it's kind 'o shaky around the knees." Captain Lohcr po- ted off to -Uncle Joe's cot, and found tile old fellow at work about 'he premises. "Mr. Ba.-is.ett," he said with awful mean ing, "do you own a horse?" "Wttl I rather kalkilate as howl dew, Squire," answered the old fellow. "And did you know that your horse had destroyed more than half of my wheat?'' 'Ju-mc-mleml Tou don't say io, 'Squire! exclaimed Joe, in terror. "It is a fact, sir; and now vou may settle it or suffer the consequences. 1 "But, Sqnire railly 1 kan't believe it. My boss is such a quiet critter. "Are you willing brattle it? cried the captain madly. "But 'Squire railly, I couldn't pay yo noth'n sanin 1 couldn't." "Then you'll pay somebody else. You know that your horse has been in my field." ' "I couldn't ewar 'at he hadn't, that's a fact. 1 1 "That's enough." And with this the captain went off. lie went to one of the assessors, from whom he learned that Joe owned some two or three hundred dollars' worth of property; and then lit went to a lawyer, and had Joe Bassett sued, setting the damages at one hundred dollars. 1 he lawyer sent Joe a letter, but the old fellow, refused to take any notice, of it, and the case was carried into court, Captain Lober having sworn that he would push Uncle Joe to the last extremity. The court was in session, and the day for the trial arrived. The room was crowded, for a whisper had gone abroad that Uncle Joe would get the best of it. Finally the ease was called on, and Leber's counsel u.ade statement of the cause which had led to the su.it, enlarged upon the damage which had been done to his client's property, and explaining how little tho transgressor had eoetned to care for it. "Whore is the defence?" No body seemed to know. "Is the defense in court?" All eyes were turned upon Uncle Joe, and he arose. "Are you tho defendant in this case?" asked the court. "Mo?" returned Joe, with a vacant stare. . "Yes you." "lie is," your honor," said Lober'g Law yer. Have you got council, sir; the Judge re sumed. - "Not's I know on", replied Joe, with a half foolish, half wicked look.

The Captain's counsel looked very blank, while the captain himself turned very red, and very pale by turns. In the mean time the spectators cutne nigh Fplittititr with laughter. iSolne attempt was made to tep riniaiid Uncle Joe for this result; but lie Was simple and honest on the occasion that all blame fell where it rightfully lelonsed upon the man who brought the suit. It was very easily proven that Joe never own ed a "live bons, ' and he was sent about his business. It was a small affair perhaps, hut it made a great noise; mid so hot and heavy Were the various remark that came showering down upon I)anied Lober, that in les's than a month be was glad to sell out and move.

I nlJcil Slau s Govei ciiDM nt L.I- :'(, It is Well known that a large class of pro fessional and other business men are now, under recent acts ot Congress, required to take animal licenses. These licences expire on'the first of May in each year. Persons whose business requires licenses, should make immediate application for the same at tho office of J. II. Barudill, Esq., U. S. Assessor for this District. Among the recent changes in the license law me the following: Common carriers, or persons or enrnpn tiies doing an express business, whose gross receipts exceed i'iOO per annum, are lcqui led to pay a license of 111). Insurance brokers must pay a license of 6"if). Any person negotiating or procuring insurance in, behalf of another, and recei ving pay thoi-lor, is deemed an insurance broker. , .... Persons nr companies tin ploying others in mining I'of coal or older minerals, when their annual irceine exceeds SI 000, and when not licensed as manufacturers, must pay fit) license. It is provided in the law relating to ped dler's license, that no one between the arcs of 20 and 4-0, who is not enrolled for militia duty, or exempted lor physical disability, shall beentitled to a peddler's license. If any peddler fail to pnidoce his liceri.se, when demanded by an o Dicer, Midi cfiicer may seize the horse, wagon and contents, or the pack, bundle or basket of such peddler, and have the mine forfeited and sold. Ohio Ihmwrnt. Ex-l'rcNldrnt Jtiu !.in:Ui atid rvfnrj Mittatcii. Ux-President Biirliaiian has thought the N. Y, Pimfs misrepresentations of the his tory of the Cincinnati Convention worthy of the explicit coutiadiction and exposure. Wdile the venerable Pcnnsylvaiiiaii is devo ting himself to the "truth of history," we would suggest that he enlighten the public on another point of more practical impor tance, upon which he is equally well quali fied to speak attthoiitativtly. Secretary Stanton is in the habit of claim ing credit with the enemies of Mr. Buchan an for having intimidated him so greatly as to prevent him from ordering Major Ander son out of Fort Sumter, as according to the redoubtable Secretary, was proposing to do. This charge is one which the ex-President will have no difficulty in refuting, if he deems worth his while; but the point which we repeat, is of importance; is. the alleged cohdttl-t of Seeretiiry Htatitorl himself, four years ago, in aiding and abetting the leading traitors in the inception of their treason. Unless -wo tub grittty misinformed, Mr. Buchanan will have no difficulty in showing that, even so late as the first battle of Bull Hun, Scerotaiy Stanton adhered to his o-ig-inal comiictions in favor of secession and treason, laughed at the difcomforture of the federal troops, and derided anew the possi bility of coercion.

ANDREW JOHNSON. By the President: W.M. II. StWAiti), 8cc'y of State. Cfiif cH for Soldi i s. The Republican party "now has a splen did opportunity of proving the sincerity of fts fiequent declarations of friendship lor r'iio soldiers. The war is over and now "Johnny comes marching hotnc" 11c will soon want, work of some kind to do; will the Republicans prove themselves as ready as the Democrats to employ him? There are a great many otfjees of various kinds to be filled soon, There arc assessors and collec tors of internal revenue, and postmasters innumerable, to bo appointed all over the land. President, Johnson has frequently expressed his belief in tho policy of rota tion in office, and will doubtless make many changes of officers tinder his control. Will the Republicans who have, during all the war, stayed at hotnc and made money, now stand gracefully aside nnd give the returning soldiers a chance? Will they eiicultito pe titions and write recommendations for the appointment of discharged soldier to of fice? If they were honest in their professions of friendship they will now show it by their woikri. If they do not do so, it will become apparant that all their boastings about pe culiar devotion to "the brave boys in blue" W'as mere clap trap for dolitieal effect. 'The time for putting these pretensions to the test has come. "We will see what wo will see. 1 1 Wheeling Register. Twenty Years Ar-o !

The sweeping inaj irity of one hundred thiiusinJ of the so ealleJ Uniein party in Ohio, in Kstili, dwin,i!e l down Inst year to ! one liall its termer proportions, tliefit'irh tin; most streimoiH exertions were u'iile by tie; friemlsi of the AJiuim.-tnitiei' to keep up the majority. From the tone "f several county journals el the opposition, and tdu divided opinion of those of iinio reiiiectuble calibrt and circulation, we ere convinced they feel tli.it. the sceptre of power isueit secure in their grasp in Ohio, There is much discordance in the ranks of those who arrogate to themselves all the patriotism and "loyally." Some of the faithful arc displeased at the i-lsM of keep ing in the most prominent positions, in the State, those "life-long Democrats11 who were so suddenly converted to the political faith of men whom, on all occasions, ihey had zealouslp aud determinedly opposed, and are hcfrinning to clamor lor the rein-I statement of "our own men." Ilt-n.v there j appears to be a formidable resistance organ- i izing to oppose the re-nomination of our pre- j sent Governor, John Broiled tho great j original "life-long Democrat." The Per- i rysburg Journal, on orgiin of the coal-black wing, is singularly averse to the nomination : of this broad and illuu.inable patriot, and j with a lack of that courtesy which the "loy- ! al should observ,- towards the Chief Exec utive of the Buckeye Stale, sneeringly ob serves that "the Governor-will soou find that every dog has his day." A correspon dent of the Cincinnati Gazette writes that the "feeling against Governor Brough is al-nin.-t universally among tho Ohio soldiers. Not even a respectable niiniority desire his reiioinination." On tho other baud the Governor has his organs, and they grind out of him most fulsome praise, and declare that HIS action in calling out the National j Uiiani or Ulno, last summer, was a grand stroke of policy, and that his Jacksonian energy aided materially in giving the crush ing, blow to tin; Great llebeillon. Ast the mutter stands' now. the fight is a pretty one. between those who think the Governor a great man and those who don't. Wo are sure we do nut care which party comes out uppermost, yet indications are evident that Governor Brough is to be consigned to the shades of private life as unceremoniously as was Governor Tod. We are satisfied that the latter aud his friends can have no teats to shed over a summary disposition of Gov ernor Brough. It is. now an acknowledged fact and admitted by a great many promi nent Union leaders; that if ever injustice was shown to a man by a party, it was shown to Governor Tod by the Union party of Ohio to which he gave strength and vitality in its early days by assuming the leadership, and currying its standard when it cast him aside for Governor Brough. As everything indicates that Peace will sotui shed its quiet beams over the country, some of the officers of the army are. getting lviuiy to claim civic honors of tho State. In Chattanooga, and its neighborhood, iu the soldiers discover that Geiier.il James B. S'eeelmiin has the requisite qualifications for Governor, and with afiouri.-li of truniphets his snl'oniinaics fill the air and the news papers with disj praises. In addition to his achievements in th field, this General can be-cUiuied asa- "lif'o-lonr Democrat." Hliei the latter by some is thought a good ground f or preferment in the Union party. Again, from another portion of the "si'miy S-iuth," the name of Major General Cox is whisper ed about as a suitable person 'tw bo adorned with (be Executive honors of Ohio. Other General nf creator or less note, are spoken ol'nlso, in connection with the Government ship und liitmtcnaiit Governorship, and Brigadier General Robinson is regarded by the "army in the field'' as just the man for Treasurer of State. This desire for civil honors on the part .of tl:e tried veterans of the ni my is all right; but it is particularly annoying to the distinguished gLMil.leuniu who on the stump and in the bail have ex pended a vast amount of "Gas" in putting down the wicked rebellion. They think that the soldiers should be satisfied with luu id wreath of glory, won irt the field ; to t lie-in the patriots at. home should belong the fid diippings of officials station, Plain L'cuhr, Shall Wc Hans JofT. t;ivis? The Spiingfield (Mas".) lujnthh'cnn, a staunch and able supporter and admirer of Mr. Lincoln's administration, and a very earnest anti-slavery journal, spea'es as fol lows conjeriiin.tr the treatment uf the rebel leaders: There are throe men of whom wo don't see how they can be hiing under any circum stances. The three negotiators whom Pre sident Lincoln mat at Fortress Mjnroe and talked with for hours, fully aud frankly, he, at any rate never could have hung. "King's iiiee brings grace." And wo imagine no one will be found autbifimls trf interfere with his legacy of mercy. They are ariiong the chief offenders. There is only onn above them. With Stephens, Hunter and Campbell spar ed, the balance must be nice that sinks tt'i'h Davis. Do We wish to finish tin rebellion, to turn out its very ashes? Then make no martyrs. The wounds' inflnited iiiCold blood are what keep animosities alive. At this moment there lire a million of women at th? South who would give all they have to save Jeff. Davis' life, who would coiiduet ami shelter him as Flora McDonald the fu cative Charles Edward. If his life is ta ken they are ready to dip their handker chiefs in his blood, to Ueg lucks of His hair; and to perpetuate for a hundred years the scnti.nent of vengeance. Unless we present t hem this grievance, in five"yenrs ho will be remembered only as the author of innumer able woes. The Last right In Texas. New Yokk, May 29.
