The Fational Banner L ARNelEee. : : . [By Grace Greenwood | e In the city of Hartford, Conn., lives the hero of the true story I am about to relate, but no: longer “little” as the perilous adventure ‘which made-him famous in his native -town happened *several years ago. : - i Qur hero was then a bright, active boy of fourteen—the son of a mechan--ic.. In the severe winter of 1835 the father worked in a factory about a mile from his home, and every day the | boy carried him his dinper across a piece of meadow land. . - _ One keen, frosty day he found the | snow on this meadow nearly two feet deep, and no trace of the little foot ~ path remaining. *Xet he ran as fast as possiblé plunging through drifts,. keeping himself warm by vigorous: exercise, and brave, cheerful thoughts. - When'in the midst of the meadow, - nearly half a mile from home, he suddenly felt himself going down, down. . .He liad fallen into a well. Hesank down, down into the dark, icy water, but rose i[}zmedi;ttely to -the surface: There he grdsped hold of a plank/which had fallen.into the well as .he ‘went down; one-end of it rested on the bottom of the well, the other rose about - .four feet above, the surface of the water. :

. .The poor lad shouted for help untijl ‘he was hoarse and almost ‘speechless’; but all in vain, as-it was impossible to make hiinself heard from such a depth; and at such a distance:from any. So at last, he- concluded that if he was saved dt all he must save himself, and ‘began at oncej as he .was getting extremely cold in the water. So he went to work. Pk ,' iFirst he drew himself up the plank,

and braced himself against the wall o

the well which was of brick, and quite smoeoth. Then he pulled off his coat, and taking out his pocketknife, ie cut off his beots that he might go to work to greater advantage. Then, with his iiket against one side of the well and isshoulderagainst the other,he worked himself up, by the most fearful-ex-ertion, about one half the-distance to the top. ~ Here he was obliged to pause to take breath and gather up his energies for the work yet before him. Far harder ;was it than all he had gone thro_ug}g,for, the side being from that point all covered with ice, he must cut with his knife grasping places for his Afingers slowly and carefully all the “’qy up’ e L N i > 2

It was almost a hopeless attempt, but it was all that he ‘could do. - And kere the little hero lifted up his heart to God and prayed fervently for help, fearing that he could never get out alone, . ™ . Doubtless the Lord heard his' voice

.- calling but wrought no miracle to save . him. He breathed into his heart a - yet larger measure of calmness and .courage and strengthened him to work: -out his own deliverance. - 1 =« After this- our little "hero cut. his way upward inch by ineh. His wet stockings'froze to the ice and kept his feet from slipping, but his shirt was quite worn from his shoulders ere he ‘reached tlie top.. He did reach it at last. crawled out into the snow, and laid down for a moment to rest, panting out. his -breath on little 'white clouds in the clear frosty air. =~ ° His clothes soon 'froze to his body, but he Ao -longer suffered with cold,

as, full of joy and thankfulness, he ran to the factory, his father was waiting and wondering. = .. : 5 The. poor man had to -"go- without: his dinner that day, but you may be sure he cared liftle about that, while listening with tears in his eyes to the thrilling story which his son had to relate to him. ; ‘ ¥

i I hayve not heard of the *hero” for two ar three years, but I trust that-he is growing up into a braye, heroic man, and . I hope he will never forget the Heavenly Friend who did not forget him in the hour of his great need. . There is an old saying that truth lies at the bottom of a well.

I trust that this brave boy.found and brought up from there this truth: “God helps those who help themselves.” : ‘ ‘

) Lying With a Purpose. = It.seems to be indispensable to the weal of the republican party that one ‘or the other of the late confederate leaders'sheuld be kept perpetually on exhibition before the people, in the act of breathing forth threatenings _and slanghter against the government ‘and the north. Notlongsince Jeff. Davis was credited with a bloody and foolish speech which never passed his lips, and about ‘the same time. the White House organ at Washington reported that General Forrest, of rebel fame, had delivered himself at Mul‘don, Tenn.,-declaring that “he believed “there would be anotheér war, and his “policy would be to raise the black “flag with a skull .aud cross-bones on “it, and not leave a’Republican, white “or black, alive in the State.” ' In answer to -a letter of inquiry on the subject, General Forrest. now ‘writes that he has not said anything ‘of the Kkind, either in public or in private,and has not even thought of such a thing.. He has made no:speech anywhere for two years; is:taking no part in polities, and had never heard of such a place 'as Muldon, Tennessee.— ‘He greatly deplores the efforts that are made by soine persons . in ithe north;and in the south to engender animogities between the races, and to prejudice the President against the Southern people; and:he. only desires that peace majg be preserved, good feeling restored,;and the Constitution and the laws respected and upheld all over the land. e R * Such, of course, is the sentiment of" everybody ‘at the South -who is anybody, and of none more emphatically than of those who took an active part in the war against the Union.. The time cannot be far distant when this will be understood at the North, and it will be useless for the loyal press to ‘publish . lies. to the contrary. In the meantime, however, these lies serve a -useful purpose for the party of all the ‘morality,and, the harvestof them will not fail. e . gl i

" ” ‘Elmportant Decision. | The Supreme Court of this State recently rendered a decision which may prove the source of as great trouble to the railroads as the Grangers have ‘been. The decision was made in the case of €ox vs. the Louisville, New Albany & Chicago Railroad Company, from Tippecanoe county. It is tothe effect that a railroad company can not. occupy a street with its track without purchasing the right of way from the owners of the adjoining lots. . The decision is thus reported by the Sentinel. _ Under- the statutes of this State relating to the making and recording of town plats, the laying out and designating a street on a plat dees not pass from the proprietors the fee simple in the soil'of the street. . A déed conveying by its number or by an appro‘priate description a lot on a street in a city or town, in the.absence of an -express statement to the contrary, con'}fis the fee to"ithe'esntet 'o§¥he,stree_t;" ‘Fhe permanent oecupancy of a street ThmE P s - new use or . riaion of the soil mtmmowm?gggdmn L T

The Negro in Saloons and Barber--2 AT IO lABReRE T oy e Under date of March 18th, Ben Butler writes .to a prominent negro of 'Ci‘pci‘nnatizi s e “I am hs?y__ to say that the Civil Rights bmén oes not give any right to 2 ‘colored man to go into a dr)&*mg saloon without the leavé of the pro‘prietor, and am very glad t_;hat"ijfi{éges not. .1 am willing o ¢oncede, as a friend to the colored man, -that the | white race may have at least this one | superior privilege to the colored man, % ‘that they can drink in bar-rooms and saloons, and-I never shall do m;;}‘.hl'ng ‘to interfere with the exercise of that Ligh and distinctive privilege. " 1 would not advocate a bill which sho’d give this right to the colored man. . Ir I were to vote for any bill on this subject at all, it would be one, to keep the colored mdn. out of the drinking saloons; and I.hope no barkeeper will | ever let.a colored -man have a glass of liquor at any bar open for drinking.‘ | Indeed, I 'should be glad, wheneyer A colored man should gointo a drinkingsaloon for the purpose of drinking at the bar, ifsomebody would at once take: him and put him out, doing him as little injury as possible. = He could do the colored man no greater kindReRE o A A PRIVACY OF A BARBER SHOP. ~As to the other "branch- of your question, in reference to the barber shops, ‘let me say that the trade of a | barber _is like any other trade, to be carried on by the man who is engaged in it at his.own will and pleasure, and the Civil Rights- bill has nothing to do, and was intended to have nothing |to do, with'its ‘exercise. A barber has a right to shave whom he pleases’ as ] much as'a jéeweler has a right to repair a watch for whom he pleases, or | a blacksmith to shoe such colored | horses as lie pleases. In other words, | these are not public employments, but | private business, in’ which: the law does not interfere.” . ‘

. A’ Monster Hotel. v [Cal. Corresyondence of the N. Y. Graphic.] "As a hotel builder Ralston excels any living person. He and William ‘Sharon own the Grand Hotel and the Cosmopolitan:. THey have just constructed the Palace Hotel, one of the ‘most- enormous structures in this country=3so- feet by 275 in dimensions, and covering nearly 100,060 square feet of land. e & Mr. E. McGrath, who is‘doing the marble work for this house at a cost of $300,000, is now in the East,and he has given:me a few_ figures which indicate the extraordinary character of this edifice. “The Grand Hotel, just opposite the Palace, cost $600,000; the Occidental cost $300,000. The Palace and Grand will be united by a tunnel. The present- capaeity of the Grand, the Russ, the:Lick, the Cosmopolitan and the Occidental is about fiifteen hundred persons in all; but the Palace Hotel will contain 765 rooms, every outer room with a bay window, and to every ‘two rooms there will be bath and toilet apartment, making in all: 348 bay windows and 377 bath rooms. The breakfast‘room will be 100 feet by 50, the dining room 150 feet by 55, the center court 144 feet by 84, roofed with glass, and eonverted into’ ‘a tropical garden filled. with exotic plants, fountains and statuary. A band. of music will be-a prominent feature of this house, which is designed to be both a Summer and Winter resort, as the temperature of the climate is from sixty to seventy degrees Fahrenhiet in Summer, and in ‘Winter from fifty to sixty degress.

The Black Hills.

It is now reported that the Sioux Indians are anxious to sell out their possessions”in the Black Hills country.. Perhaps they.may as well sell out as.to be.compelled to evacuate by the hot-headed: enthusiasts who are convineed "that the Hills in question are full of gold. There is, however, ‘the. faintest suspicion on the part of some - skeptical - observers, that: the whole rumpus has been kicked up at the ‘instance of the Indian bureau. The gentlemen who have been commissioned to look after the interests -of Lo will not be -averse to selling out the reservation at a high figure to the government, for it must be a high figure 'as the Black Hills is the chosen. spot of all the great northwest.. -The purchase money will ‘more than half of ‘it go into the ‘pdckets of the ring, and there‘will be an end of the excite‘ment.. There is very little gold there, if we may credit the accounts of men whose opinions are entitled to most réspect. Whatever may be the resources of the soil, the country is too far removed from other habitableportions " of the country. The'gold excitement ig without doubt a sublime advertising dodge.—Fort Wayne Senbladel, o A e e o ; “The President’s Pay.

~ This stoyy is told of a father who was’ one evening teaching his little boy to recite his Sunday school lesson. It - was from the fourteenth chapter of Matthew, wherein is related the parable of a malicious individual who went about sowing tares.. ik “What is a tare? Tell me, my son, what a tare is,” asked the anxious par-

=You had ’em!” ¢ o ~“Johnny, what do- you mean?’ asked his father, opening his eyes rath erwide, - v o

~ ‘.“Wlkv,‘ last week, when you didn’t come home for three days,” said Johnny, “I heard mother tell. Aunt Susan that you were on a tare.” ¢

Johnny was immediately sent to bed.

- The Chicago T'ribune pays the following tribute to the man who has nullified the Civil Rights Bill;: - “Judge Emmons is not a Southern :man. He has lived all his life in Michigan; and in the selection of eminent lawyers to be Circuit Judges under the aet of 1871, he was appointed because of his high standing and learning as a lawyer. e has never been a ‘Democrat; was originally a Whig; and, ‘has been a Republican since the party ‘was - established—more than’ twenty years ago” - | :

..~ CONSUMPTION, the seourge of the human family, may in its early stages be promptly arrested and permanently cured. » L RAVENSWoOOD, W, Va. Dz. R. V. Pieror, Buffalo, N. X.: Yo ; '.* SIR—For the last year I have been | using your Golden Medical Disc'overz; | I owe my life toit, having been affected for years. Did nolén use it buta short time before I was benefited; at that time I was very bad, not able to sit up much, was suffering greatly with my throat, was getting blind, had a ‘dry cough, and much pain in my lungs. I have used twelve bottles of thie Discovery and am almost well. - KATE T. WARDEN. :Ason of Mr.J. H. Meseck, of Chatham Four Corners, N. Y. has been -cured of consumption by Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery,-— so says Mr. C. B. Canfield, editor of the Chatham Courier. e g S. R. Eglar, druggists, jof ‘West Union, 0., writes to state that: Dr. Pierce’s< Golden Medical. Discovery has effected a wonderful ecure of Consumption in his neighborhood. A Prevalent Disease.

There. is no disease so prevalent in. America as dyspepsia and certainly none which has so generally baffled and defeateds the skill of the medical proéession. The only remedy for this distressing complaint is a pure medicated stimulant. Hostetter’s Stomagh Bitters, whose essential prineciple is sound rye, is admitted by medical practitioners to be the only alterative, corréctive and restorative, on which they can rely. 'The Bitters are the best possible specific for flatulengy, dizziness, vvéterbmsh, irregularity of the bowels, and all indications of confirmed dyspepsia. They donol excite, but. sooth the irritated stomach and bowels, and may be taken by persons of the most delicate and sensitive organization, who are unpleasantly affected by the use of the ordinary stim‘ulants of commerce. Though their effect is most decisive. yet-they are so mild and beneficent in operation, as l te be suitable to.¢hildren as well as to adults. : " 49-whH.

A farmer’s boy was crossing a field where a very wild and ferocious. bull was allowed to roam at large. When the boy had about reached the middle of the field he suddenly saw the bull, with head lowered, rushing furiously at him, Being accustomed to managing cattle, he was in no way disconcerted, and ran to a é’ree near by and commenced running around it with the bull after him; presently he caught the'bull by the tail, and commenced belaboring him unmercifully ‘with a stick. .The bull; finding that “tail” was turned, started off at a run, the boy swingging to him; but the faster he ran the more the boy belabored him, until finally he commenced bellowing. “O,” says the boy,'increasing his blows, “you may bellow, but I'd like to know who started this?? - - Fr— -—— . 3 : ; Naval Cadetship.
