The American Cooking Stove After twenty years' experience in the manufacture of toveo.we became convinced, some ix year ince. inai a vaft amount of money was heinir expended bv the people of thH country "in buyln? cheap and almost worthless stove?, a lanre portion of wl ich was wasted : and that true economy conieled in buying the beet ptovep that could b mnde. notwithstanding the price wa higher. With thW view, wc proceeded toroiiFtruct the American Cookimj Stovt, and spared no pains or ox pen?e to make it the best and most perfect ptove that could he made. And wc have experimented with it, aud carefully watched Its operations for the lat nix years, and when an improvement snpgestcd itself, we have at once adopted it, and we have sevrral of these aernred by letter patent. In thU manner, we no noj hesitate to pay, we have brought it to a higher state of perfection than has heretofore been att ined in cooking atoves. Tue recent improvements in tn s ptove nasaaaed largely to its convenience and effectiveness. Ii ' the varieties of stoves we manufacture, we study n all usefulness, durability, convenience and economy In operation, rather than cheapness in price, and in so doing we are satisfied we study the interest of thoae purchasing oar stoves.

Leisure Moments.

BY APUURY If but half the leisure moments That are squandered day by day Were employed In friendly missions To the needy br the way, "What a burden of affliction, "What a weieht of bitter woe, From the children of misfortune Might be lifted as we go. Very much we might be doing, W hile wc sit with folded hands, Thoughtless of the call of duty Ana philanthropy's demands: Heedless of the wails of anguish That wc hear on evefy side, Hugging only to our bosoms Our own selfish lust and prldei Precious moments we are wasting, When wc might be doing good Moments freighted with rich blessings, If we'd spend them as we should; Moments that we might be using For the sowing of good seed, That to starving hearts of others "Would bring luscious fruit indeed. WheroJs Your Leg? BT CAPTAIN MACS AM AHA. "In the Municipal Court vesterday after noon, a one-armed soldier.leaning on acrutch, named Thomas riant, was fined five dollars without cost, for allowing his hand organ to remain on the side walk, in front of the Old South Church for a period of time exceeding five minutes by the Old Soulh Clock. Thomas paid the money, and thanked the prosecuting ofllccr for introducing him to the court, and departed to recommence Ins grinding in another location. Botton Herald. TJiis is the way that heroes are. paid Men who Iiavc slept with the dead Who fought to defend your honor and flag nen accusers anu juuges jiaa ilea. In the storm and glory of battle In the run and passion of fight, His organ, the musket, won freedom, And he held up your stars shining bright. But the battle is over, and limbless The hero is limping about ; He has fought to the music he plays you, Though no longer he s stalwart and stout. Now the armless, weary and broken, le drag from the front of the church Ye pull the brave soldier to prison, The hero ye've left in the lurch! America knows not true glory, Else its soldiers brave never would beg, Or be prisoned for grinding an organ Poor Devil, oh, where is your leg? Comments of a Radical Paper on the Result. From the Cincinnati Commercial. Tlic llcactlon. There has been more of the severity of justice than of the wisdom of expediency in the extremely radical policy of Congress for two years past. It has been constantly assumed by the radical leaders that they only represented an intense and inveterate radicalism in the people. They asserted that they were really driven before the popular tempest of radicalism, which was des tined to sweep round the world like the trade winds. There are uow visib'.e signs that the country has either had too much or too little of the radical policy. As we see it, there has becu too much of the good thing. Several times in the course of events since the surrender of Lee, we have expressed misgivings as to the complete consummation of the radical policy. We hoped to be able to stop at a sale place, and consolidate the llcpublican victory wou in the war. Wc dreaded the consequences of attempting to compress iuto the period covered by a couple of Congresses, the work of ordinary centuries. AVe had not as much confidence in the age at d in modern improvements, as some others. Hut there is a popular weariness as to fijrhtinir the old battles of the war over all the time. There are some other things to think about. Wc begged Ben. Wade to stop the torrent of personal vituperation and partisan violence long enough to talk a little about some of the new issues which were particularly important here. Nothing could be got out of him but the same old ding-dong. The third officer of the Government, Mr. Speaker Colfax, gave us but a very small amount of instruction in proportion to the latitude and longitude of his discourse, and indulged in an unseemly and untimely threat of hanging the first officer of the CJovernmeut. The efficacy of such indiscreet harangues is seen in the election returns from Ohio. Something beside war talk will be wanted hereafter. No one need deuy that there is a reaction against the radical policy of making Black States in the South, coupled with the most reprehensible carelessness in financial legislation, save where care is taken to favor special interests, and a terribly profligate system of appropriation. Within a few weeks Congress meets. There will be those so demented that they will wish to rush forward "jump ahead," as len Wade say take a leap in the dark in further proscriptive legislation, confiscating outhern estates, impeaching the President and all that sort of thing. It will not do. Congress has work to do far better. Aye, it is vital work. It is t) re-model tho reconstruction of the South, bo as to couple with Impartial Suffrage, Universal Amnesty. We use Greeley's words and they aro golden ones. Then Congress must address itself with extraordinary energy to financial questions. Wc wrote out our policy on this head a few days ago, so satisfactorily to ourselves that we reproduce the language hero : "The thing to do is to make the greenback dollar a good as gold. Let Congress address itKclf to that work. The way to accomplish it is plain. Insist upon an cconouiical administration of the Government. Kick aside the corruptionists in all directions; cause the enforcement most rigorously of the revenue laws. Get at the matter of equalizing taxation and persevere in it. Kepeal tho prohibitory and protective legislation, and reconstruct the tariff for revenuo. Stop harbor appropri tions, where harbors do not exist, and commerce is impossible. Throw away forever i the proflizato canal projects of the extreme North. Touch lightly as possible th Pacific railroad schemes to absorb both tit

lands and the revenues of half a continent. Keep up taxes after equalizing the burden by the exercise of common sagacity in that particular, and discriminate carefully in favor of those whose little property is the immediate result of their industry and thrift. Frown indignantly, as Washington would say, upon the appearance of repudiation, iu whatever disguise. Devote the surplus revenue to the payment of the national debt. See to it that every month it is reduced some millions. It is viin to talk of turning the debt over to remote fenerations to pay. They will have wars and debts enough of their own, unless we learn to govern ourselves better, and teach our

children a higher order of wisdom than thus far we have exhibited competence to do. A e must reduce the bulk of this debt very materially, and fund the rest of it in long bonds at low interest if it is to be paid. Mate the greenback worth its face in gold by practicing economy in the administration of the Government, and indicating in cur conduct the presence of public virtue and national integrity ; and then the laboring man, instead of being robbed by issues of paper money, will be enriched by the increased purchasing power of his money, and the increased demand for labor that will tow out of an assured financial condition. From the Mobile Times, 2d. Tbe Iatc IVcgro Voting Farce In Alabama-Tlic Election. This one-sided affair closed last night. It is likely that more negroes voted than were registered. Hunter and Horton hav ing defaced and altered the lists to suit their partisan purposes. Some ludicrous incidents took place. A lladical in the Sheriff's office, speaking to a gentleman, laughingly remarked, 'Do you know what the negroes are voting for to-day ? The geutleman replied, "For the Convention, no doubt." "No, no !" said the fellow, with a knowing smile; 'they are voting for their freedom; at least we tell them so I" Negroes from the country were at once taken charge of by tho leaders and driven to the polls, as soon as they could manage to find a name, generally not that under which they had registered. Some one would often say, "No, that's not your name, yor are called George Washington. I know you well." And as they had on hand a large re serve of George Washingtons, down wo'd come the vote as George Washington. When asked what they had voted lor, the poor ignorant dupes would say, "I don't know guess I voted for tho Inv$ntion; and some wag would suggest, ''Well done! negroes should always vote lor new inventions. "Guess so, master," rejoined the new sovereign. "We is voting for a seat," exclaimed another darkey. "We is going to have a scat l" "And where?" would retort some in quisitive party. "Don't know, sar !" The white scamps who were phtying this little farce were, indeed, greatly enjoying it; and even Horton forzot that he had so much gall in his vein that would soon drop with yellow fever, and the hideous old thing was actually seen to attempt a smile. O. horror! The North will learn with terror what they have been allowing to do what they have tolerated. Had the reconstruction bill committed no other enormity than to cast the ballot into the hands of tho ignorant masses just emerged from lavery, without snatching it from the educated and intelligent men of the land, this great error would have corrected itself by the overwhelming vote of the whites; but while they armed one they disarmed the other, and thus threw the destinies of the country into the hands of a few unpriocpled and ravenous rascals. But now that they see their fault, will they rise up in their majesty and crush the odious fraud? Let Ohio and Pennsylvania answer first. XrRro Ambition for Ofllce. The New Orleans Timet, referring to the approaching election in Louisiana, says : "It is undeniable that a strong feeling ofi caste of exclusiveness is growing up in the breasts of the colored people, and that the tendency to ignore white men as counselors aud leaders, even though they be of the most radical type politically is constantly on the lucrease. Even at this early day, long before an election for the new local governments can be held, there is scarcely a State or a municipal office that cau be named for which a negro candidate has not already been put forward, with active and strong supporters at his back. A colored man, now holding office by appointment of Gen. Sheridan, boasted on a leading thoroughfare, in tones to be heard by passers, that he would be the next sheriff eleeted, if it cost him $50,000. He is confident of succeeding without any such liberal expenditure ; another is quite as confident of being the next Mayor. The member of Congress from the first district is decided upon, and so on to the end of the list." TheWonderriil Change. The political iweeo in the State, is perfectly wonderful. Of the 42,000 radical majority, which towered so high last year, hardly a vestigt remains. There has been a change for the Democrat, in the total vote of at least ten per cent. The most angjine expectations of the Democracy havo been more than realized. The Republicans, putting confidence in the loud boasts and taunts of their organs of what immense majorities they would obtain, are dumbfounded at the result. They had no premonition of the tremendous popular hurricane that was setting in. It strack like a thunderbolt from a clear sky. They now sec the "handwriting on the wall," which presages their future doom. Their ascendancy in Ohio is irretrievably broken, if only a moderate degreo of sonso shall actuato the Democratio party.

NEW VOHI DEMOCRATIC STATE tOÄVB.VriO. Speech of Governor Seymour. Gov. Seymour was made permanent

President, and on taking the chair made an eloquent speech, a synopsis of which is appended below. On taking the cuair, he said: We can not, if we would, escape from confronting the problems of the day. Neither safety, honor, nor patriotism will suffer us to stand dumb or inactive in this dark hour of danger. We have put down rebellion and now we are struggling with revolution. The first is sectional, the last is univer sal. The first sought to divide the coun try, the last threatens to destroy it. Mr. Seymour alluded to the charges against the President and charts against each other y members of the House of Representa tives, iven the öeuate has pursued this policy revolutionary in its teudency; in its blindness it is striking suicidal blows against its own existence. Colorado to day balances four millions of people in New York. It was admitted to gaiu two votes in the struggle with the Executive. But a boldr act is in view twenty Sen ators are to be admitted from ten States lately in rebellion, not as Representatives of while people nor of the blacks, but be cause they hold the views of a majority of the senators, and are sent to ashington by their agents. If this revolution is begun, it must go on to its logical, just end. It must not roll on the necks of the majority of the American people and stop there ; but num bers must be represented, not rotten LoroulIis or eham States. We implore Senators not to begin this revolution. Be content with your vast powers. Your or ganization is at war with impartial suffrage and impartial representation. If you con tinue your usurpation, the country may not be content with driving you back within constitutional limits. It may go further, and, acting upon the doctrines you assert, it may crush you out, and make another Senate, based, in truth, on manhood suffrage. The country needs peace, but if you will have revolution it can not stop at any chalk lines you may mark out. New York, Pennsylvania, Ken tucky, Tennessee, Illkois, Indiana, Wisconsin, Ohio, Missouri, Minnesota and Michigan, with a majority of the people, of which are now virtually disfranchised in your body, and controlled by the Represcntatives ox a quarter oi our population, if the government is to be re-shaped, will have their lull rights. They are not suffering merely from theoretical wrongs. The destruction of the carrying trade of New York; and the overtaxation of the Northwest, shows how unequal distribution of power makes unequal business. During the war of the rebellion we put the exertion of the Senatorial power upon the weak head of the enrolling bureau in fixing the quotas of the States. While their purposes were to save their own constituents from the sacrifices of war, by so doing they threw upon other States the cost of life and b'ood. In New York this grew into abuse so flagraut that even partisan passions could not be blind to the outrage. But the northwestern States suffered the most severely from this injustice. I have the official proof that, while the average quotas iu the Congressional districts iu Massachusetts and New Hampshire were 2,167, In Illinois the' were 4.004 In Indiana they were 3,248 Jn Wisconsin they were 3,172 In Michigan they were 3,047 We ask the people of New Eng!and if it is not time for them to stop the stupid malice of their Senators ; to put a stop to the teazhing that New England Senatorial power is in violation of natural rights. We suffer in New 'York by the present constitutional law, but we seek peace. We wish to uphold the constitutional powers of all the States. We remember the glorious part they bore in the Revolutionary contest. If time has changed their comparative population, we do not wish to strip them of any political power. Wc implore them not to teach doctrines which must, n their ends, be destructful to them and - nurtful to the peace of the country. What is the social condition of the coun try ? I shall speak only of the situation of the north. It is not possible to fasten the Republican party to any standpoint as to the condition of the southern people. They arc iu or out of the Union, as partisan purposes demand. They must carry constitutional amendments, but they are pun shed if they vote. They must do their political duties, but are held to be criminal if they take part in public affairs. The southern people have to deal with political problems more bewildering than the theological dogmas which are set forth in the verse : You can and jou can't You will and you won't : You'll be damned if you do. And you'll be damned if you don'tThe social state of our country is alarming. The public mind is startled with unusual violence and murder throughout our land. Men, and women too. kill those who have done them no wrong. Life and property have beeome unsafe. Our people learned to do these things from those wbo should havo taught reverence for the Taws. The seeds which were sown when men were imprisoned, mobbed, or murdered because they honestly differed from the party in power, are now springing up in an abundance of crime, which plagues and curses those who were actors in violence or consenting witnesses to outrage upon their neighbors. If, when an unworthy secretary of Stato boasted to the representatives of kingly power that American liberty was sham and that he could do what Britain's monarch dare not, impris on without warrant and punish without trial, weak and wicked vanity had been fittingly whipped by justice, the floodgates of violeueo would not have been opeued. But be was upheld, and a hordo of robbers and brutal men, drunk with unusual power, were organized as spios and detect iven, and let loose upon the public The spirit of cowardly and criminal vi o!QCo that was sect out from tbe Depart nieot or i& tiu ;ta:tci Die it iato

the chamber of the Secretary in the foul form of tfce assassin. Murder, arson and robbery, afflict the people who did hot care what wrongs were done to thuir neighbors. It wc would avert God's just judgmcuf, let us all uow try to bring buck reverence fur the lars which our fathers left as a heritage, and thieh we luve wasted. It was not courage, but cowardlc, which made the administration trample upon laws, courts, aud home rights, and made judges trail their ermines in the du&t. Gov. Seymour devoted much of his speech to the financial question. lie opposed repudiation. Do not, he said, tho reports of the Secretary of the Treasury show we could swiftly wipe out our debt if our income was not devoted to partizau purposes? It is said it is repudiation tc force our legal tenders upon the bondholders. What makes it so? The low credit of the country. Buiid that up, and make vour paper as good as gold and this question cac not come up. lie appealed to the bondholders to keep faith, and not to add three-fold to these burdens by upholding a policy which distracts our country, endangers cocicty, corrupts cur governmei:t. and oppresses labor. After alluding to the immense amount drav.n from the people in the tax on alcohol, one hundred aud fifty millions of which is corruptly divided among the officers of law and the violators of law, he said : Give us back our commerce, lessen taxation at the uorth, shorten the hours of labor for

our mcchauics, raise the price of our securities, give us back our Union. Let us fight for our fireside rights; for freedom of opinion, and for an houcst management of public affairs. Abovo all, let us do battle for the salvation of the Union, and may God defend the right. 3Irs. Lincoln. The New York correspondent of the Louisville Democrat says : Mrs. Lincoln is making a terribk coinmotion in Black Republican circles here, by her threat to tell all she knows concerning them, if they don't come forward and supply her with the means of support. Gossip says that the fine shawls and other toggery she is now advertising for sale were never purchased by her, but weri presents from politicians who desired to secure her iuflucuce while her husband was President, iu obtaing oSces for them. Some of the politicians, it is further asserted, are parties who carry their heads loftily in this community, arid who are commonly looked upon as the exponents of I great moral iU2as. .Urs. iiucoin, in privatc, says she does not intend to be bashful. She is going to wait awhile, and then if certain folks don't do what is light, she is going to tell all she linows. The newspaper reporters have paid their respects to her iu a body, and one of them, I am informed, has been authorized to offer her $500 if she will writ up a history of her experience and observations iu the White House, during the Lincoln rajimc. I don't know whether she has coucludcJ to accept or uot; but if she h inclined to do anvthing in that hue, she could get $. 000 as easy as S500. Bonner, of the Ledg:r stands ready tj make that offer, so docs Bennett, of the Ht-rahl. a-S ajp I t. Two Youxa Ladies tree a Naked YoUTH. A young man of Liberty county, Miss., who a short time previous won the heart nnd hand of a neighborhood girl, denuded himself of his !ir leaves for the verv pleasant object of taking a bath in the creek. Scarcely had he submerged his heated frame in the o.ling waters, ere he heard the crackling of twig? ani the silvery ring of girlish laughter, aud, looking up ho saw horrendum monstrum ! the object of his affection and a female companion approaching. Quicker than thought aud unperceived, he made for the bank, and running nimbly up a tree, there waited the end of the predicament. The young ladies approach, our hero's heart thump, they stop beneath the tree that holds him, and very naturally start with surpri-e hen they see a man's clothing on lh ground and no wearer about. Our friend ab )ve Juddered at their curiosity, aud, desiring to make his retreat more secure, moves cautiously higher up, but accidently puts his whole weight on a decayed limb, which breaks and drops him, with all his blushing charms, pop in the midst of the girls! He, of ccurse, spius off at a tangent, like a burstcd shell, iu one direction and they retreat equally as fast and horrified in another. -msb a. - A Jury of One Man. Joe II is one of the characters in Lifaycttc Township. Recently he was summoned to act as juryman in a case being tried before a magistrate. lie proposed to the parties to the suit that they allow him alone to act as jury and decide the case. They agreed, the evidence was heard, and Joe retired to make up his verdict. He soon procured a bottle of whiskey, some crackers, a box of sardines and a can of cove ovctcrs from the defendant in the suit, lie helped himself to as much as he wanted of the provision? and liquor, quietly laid down in the room in which he was lucked snd took a n.ip. lie awoke toward ctening, and reported thnt "the jury have not agreed upon a verdict," and sent the Constable after the plaintiff, demanded more oyster?, crackers, sardines and whisky. Witn these he spent the night and had a pood supply over for breakfast. lie was again interrogated as to the verdict, and again answered, "tho jury have not agreed." Toward noon getting very thirsty, and unable to get further supplies, Joe called in the Constable, had himsclt conducted before the 'Squire, reported that it was impossible for the jury to agree, and was discharged. He said that where the eating and uriuking was as good as in this case, he don't mind sitting ou the jury. - m 0 - An industrious tradesman having a new apprentice, awoke hitn at a very early hour on the first morning, by calling out that the family ucre fitting down to the table. "Thank you," taid the boy, as he turned over in the bed to adjust himself for a new nap, "thank you; 1 never cat anything during the niht!"
