When half way up the extension tliey halted to admire the prospect. Suddenly a stone slipped underneath the young man's feet and he went down like a curtain- stick. He caught hold of some vines which clung to the rocks and hung on for dear life, expecting to fall a hundred feet and be dashed to pieces on the rocks be­ low. The young woman could not pull him up, so she fell on her knees and prayed for him. The young man united with her after this fashion: "Help! Murder! Oh, Lord! I know IH be all broke up. Now I lay me. Confound it all, I forgot. Oh, Jerusalem! I've got to let go pretty quick. Give us some daily bread. Oh, that ain't right! Oh, Lord! Send somebody to help me out of this scrape. Help! Thunder!"

Garfield was among the first to lay aside the ease and enjoyment of private life and the attraction of per­ sonal and political popularity and enter upon the arduous duties of the soldier. He set about raising a regiment among his pupils and friends and fellow-citi­ zens ; and mainly by his efforts the Forty-second Ohio regiment was formed, of which he was appointed Colouel by Gov. Dennison, in August, 1861. On Dec. 17 of that year he left Gamp Chase, Ohio, with his regiment, under orders for the Big Sandy valley region, in Eastern Kentucky, reporting in per­ son to Gen. Buell at Louisville. Upon arriving in that city he was invited by Gen. Buell to arrange his campaign; and he accordingly worked out a plan, which was submitted to and approved by the commanding General. The next day he started for his field of operations with a little army of four regiments and about 600 cavalry. The Big Sandy'was reached, and followed up for some sixty miles, through a rough, mountainous region, his force driving the outposts of Gen. Humphrey Marshall before them lor a considerable distance. On the 7th of January, 1862, he drove the ene­ my's cavalry from Paintville, after a se­ vere skirmish, killing and wounding "twenty-five of - them. At a strong point, three miles above Paintville, Marshall had prepared to make a stand, with two batteries of six guns each, 4,500 infant­ ry, and 700 cavalry; but, when his cav­ alry were thus unexpectedly driven in, his courage failed, and he hastily evacu­ ated his works, retreating up the river. The rapid marching, thus far, had much exhausted Gen. Garfield's forces ; still he resolved to pursue, and, picking out 1,100 of his ablest troops, continued on to Prestonburg, a distance of fifteen miles. There he found the rebels strongly posted upon the crest of a hill, and at once attacked them and main­ tained the battle during five hours, the enemy's cannon meanwhile playing tack them in front; and the General did i try in relation to Mr. Garfield, on the 22d of not propose or attempt it. Halting at j 4"°®* P^^nted to the committee the foot of the mountains for the night, he sent his cavalry early next morning to the mouth of the gap, to menace the rebels and draw them from behind their defenses. This they did, arriving at a given time and threatening an attack. The rebels jumped at the bait, and at once came out to meet them, our men rapidly retreating, and the rebels following until tbe latter were some dis­ tance in front of their breastworks in­ stead of behind them. Meantime, Gen. Garfield, with his infantry, had scaled the mountain side, in the face of a blind­ ing snow-storm, and, marching along a narrow ridge on the summit, had reached the enemy's camp in the rear of his for­ tifications. A vigorous attack was now made, resulting in th§* complete rout of the " ebels, many of whom were killed, wounded, or taken prisoners, and the remainder dispersed through the mount­ ains. The General now reassembled his forces and spent a comfortable night in the enemy's quarters, faring sumptu­ ously on the viands there found. The next morning the cabins, sixty in num­ ber, were burned, the breastworks de­ stroyed, and the General set out on his return to Piketon, which he reached the following night, having been absent four days and having marched in that time about 100 miles ever a rough and broken country. On his return he received orders from Gen. Buell, at Nashville, to report to him in person. Arriving at that place, he found that Buell had already begun his march toward Pittsburg landing, and pushed on after him. Overtaking the army, he was placed in command of the Twelfth brigade, and with his command participated in the first day's fight at Sliiloli. He was present through all the operations in front of Corinth, and, after the evacuation of that place, rebuilt with his brigade the bridges on the Memphis and Charleston railroad, and erected for­ tifications at Stevenson. Throughout the months of July and August he was prostrated by a severe sickness, and, consequently, was not in the retreat to Kentucky or the battles fought in that ?.

By comparing this account with the entry made in diary, as first quoted, it will be seen that they are not duplicates either- in substance or form : and that in this account a new element is added--nainelv, an alleged payment of *329 in cash June 19! This is the very element in dispute. The pretended proof that this sum was paid Gen. Garfield is found m the production of a check drawn by Mr. Ames on the Sergeant-at-Arms. The following is the language of the check aa reported in the testimony: • ' . . Juno 22, 1868. «y O. A. or bearer $329, and charge to my ao» coiiQu OAKES AMFH This check bears no indorsement or otlier • marks than the words and figures given above. It was drawn on the 22d day of June, and, as shown by the books of tho Serpennt-at-Arms,, was paid the same day. But, if this check was- paid to Gen. Garfield on the account just quot­ ed, it must have been delivered to him three days before it was drawn, for the account says that he received payment on the 18th of , June. ̂ Gen, Garfield himself has made a re-- * view of the whole subject, and from it- claims that the following conclusions- are clearly established by the evidence v That I neither purchased nor agreed to- purchase the Credit;Mobilier stock which Mr. Ames offered to sell me, nor did I receive any dividend arising from it. This appears not only from my own testimony, but from tlmf- tirst given by Mr. Ames, which is not over­ thrown by his subsequent statements, and is strongly continued by the fact that in the case> of each of those who did purchase the stock there was produced as evidence of the sale* either a certificate of stock, receipt of payment, a check drawn in the name of the payee, or en­ tries in Mr. Ames' diary of a stock account, marked adjusted and closed, but that no one of these evidences existed in reference to me. This position is further confirmed by the sub­ sequent testimony of Mi'. Ames, who, though St:ite. During his illness he was as- he claimed that I "did receive $329 from him on signed to the command of the forces at Cumberland gap, but could not assume briskly. Although they were now un- j Upon his recovery he was ordered der fire for the first time, the daring valor of the Union troops swept all be­ fore them ; the rebels were driven from every position, and, after destroying their stores, wagons and camp equipage, they precipitately retreated to Pound gap, in the Cumberland mountains, sixty miles above. This was the first brilliant achievement of the war in the West, and a most complete and humiliating defeat to the rebels, their loss in killed and wounded amounting to 250, in addition to forty taken prisoners, while that of the Federals was but thirty-two, all told. It is related of Gen. Garfield that at the time of this battle he had in his pos­ session a letter written a short time be­ fore by Humphrey Marshall to his wife, but intercepted by Gen. Buell and sent to Gen. Garfield, in which he stated that he had 5,000 effective men in his com­ mand! This letter the General refrained from showing to his officers and men until after the victory. His commission as Brigadier dates from the day of the battle at Prestonburg. Gen. Garfield now moved his force to Piketon, Ky., 120 miles above the mouth of the Big Sandy. Here he re­ mained several ijveeks, sending out, meanwhile, expeditions in every direc­ tion wherever he could hear of a rebel camp or band, and at length completely Payne.

The London Lancet calls attention to the danger incurred in the case of young girls by prolonged stooping-over work and crossing of the legs. Dr. Malherbe, with a view of obviating these evils, has invented a plan which consists of fixing to the edge of an ordinary table a sort of cushion, on which the work can be easily fastened or spread out, as on the knee. A framework of the simplist description admits of the raising or lowering of this cushion, so that work may be done sit­ ting or standing, but in either case the vertebral, column is maintained per­ fectly straight, while the facility of change of position greatly lessens fatigue. To test the invention, Dr. Malherbe in­ troduced it at the Communal School of Nantes, and with good effect on two pu­ pils, who had a tendency to malforma­ tion.

The worst of it is that, after Ewing 10 After one ballot the convention adjourned till 10 o'clock a. m. of Thursday, June 24. Third Day. Chairman Stevenson rapped the convention to order at 10:30, and the Bev. Charles Taylor, of Covington, invoked the divine blessing. Mr. Peckham, of New York, rose to make a statement in behalf of the State of New York. That delegation had heard with great sensi­ bility the votes in the convention yesterday for the honored statesman of New York, 8. J. Til­ den. Tbe delegation received a letter from Mr. Tilden, in which he had renounced him­ self before this convention, and the delegation, knowing his honesty of purpose, had considered it final and conclusive, and had, this morning, agreed on another candidate than Tilden. He was requested to announce that New York's choice before this convention was Bamuel J. Randall, Speaker of the House of llepresentatives. The roll-call then proceeded. Alabama, at the opening of the second ballot, cast 11 votes for Hancock. California followed with 5 for Hancock. When IHinois was reached, the vote came, for Hancock, 42 votes. Cheering followed the announcement of the vote of Louisiana, Maine, Michigan, and Minnesota. When Missouri's 28 for Han­ cock were Riven there was another rousing cheer. New York's 70 votes went for ltandall. When Ohio was callcd, Alexander Long said the delegation asked leave to retire for consulta­ tion. The Htate was passed. Pennsylvania also asked to retire and was passed. When Ohio was called again Mr. Hill said the most of the delegation was absent, and the Chairman was also absent, but, :n obedience to the in­ structions of 300,000 Democrats of Ohio, he would cast the 44 votes of Ohio for Allen G. Thurman. The Chair refused to recognize Mr. Hill's right to cast the vote. Ohio returned and cast 44 for Thurman. Wisconsin got permission to cbnnge her vote and cast 20 votes for Hancock. Here another i wild scene of excitement ensued. New Jersev followed, casting her 18 votes for Hancock. Instantly the whole convention and the gal­ leries became wild with enthusiasm. When at last peace was partly restored, Mr. Hale, of Pennsylvania, mounted on a chair and shouted out-, "Pennsylvania is proud of her son." He went on to eulogize Hancock, and closed by changing the vote of Pennsylvania, making it 58 votes for Hancock. The climax of the excitement was reached when all the banners of the States rushed to the Chairman's desk and surrounded the ban­ ner bearing the portrait of the choice of the Democracy. When something like ten minutes had been spent in this exciting outburst, W. C. P. P.reck- inridge, of Kentucky, with great difficulty, changed the vote of the State to 18 for Hancofk, 5 for Bayard, and 1 for Thurman. Nebraska changed liar 6 votes to Hancock. Virginia then changed to Hancock ; then Nevada, then Rhode Island, and the work was done. A delegate from New Hampshire moved to make the call of the States anew. The motion was quickly adopted, and the new call begiin. didate to bribe hia way to the neat of a usurper by billeting villains upon the peojile. 7. The great fraud of 1876-'77, by which, upon a false count of the electoral votes of two States, the candidate defeated at the polls was declared to be President, and for the first time in American.toietory the will of the people was set aside under a threat of military violence, struck a deadly blow at our system of representative govern­ ment S. The Democratic party, to preserve the country from the honors of civil war, submitted for the time in the firm and patriotic faith that the people would punish this crime in 1880. This issue pre­ cedes and dwarfB every other. It inspires a more sacied duty upon the people of the Union than ever addressed the consciences of a nation of freemen. 9. The resolution of Samuel J. Tilden not again to be a candidate for the exalted placc to which he was electee! by a majority of his countrymen, and from which he was excluded by the leaders of the Repub­ lican party, lg received by the Democrats of the j United States with deep sensibility, and they declare their confidence in his wisdom, patriotism, and in­ tegrity unshaken by the assaults of the common ene­ my; and they further assure him that he is followed iuto the retirement he has chosen for himself by the sympathy and rispect of his fellow-citizens, who re­ gard him aa one who, by elevating the standard of i public morality, and adorning and purifying the pub­ lic service, merits the hutting gratitude of his country | and his party. i 10.

With the selection thus account of stock, yet he repeatedly testified that beyond that amount I never received or demanded any dividend, that none was ever offered to me, nor was the subject alluded to in conversation. Mr. Ames admitted in his testi­ mony that after December, 1867, the various stock and bond dividends amounted to an ag­ gregate of more than 800 percent., and that be­ tween January, 1868, and May, 1871, all these dividends were paid to several of those who purchased stock. My conduct was wholly in­ consistent with the supposition of such owner­ ship, for during the year 1869 I was borrowing money to build a house in Washington, and se­ curing my creditors by mortgages ou my prop­ erty, and all this time it is admitted that I re­ ceived no dividends and claimed none.

One of the grand secrets of success in life is to keep ahead in all ways possible. If you once fall behind, it may be very difficult to make up the headway which is lost. One who begins with putting aside some part of his earnings, however small, and keeps it up for a number of years, is likely to become rich before he dies. One who inherits proj»erty, and goes on year by year spending a little more than his income, will become poor if he lives long enough. Living beyond thei^ means has brought multitudes of persons to ruin in our generation. It is the cause of nine-tenths of all the defal­ cations which have disgraced the age. Bankers and business men in general do not often help themselves to other peo­ ple's monev until their own fund begins to fall off, and their expenditures exceed their receipts. A man who is in debt walks in the midst of perils. It cannot but impair a man's self-respect to know that he is living at the expense of others. It is also very desira'ile that we should keep somewhat ahead in our work. This may not l»e possible in all cases; as, for instance, when a man's work is assigned to certain fixed hours, like that of the operatives in a mill. But there are cer­ tain classed of people who can choose their time for the work which they are called to do, and amongst them there are some who invariably put off the task as­ signed them as long as possible, and then come to its performance homed, per­ plexed, anxious, confused--in such a state of mind as certainly unfits tliem for doing their best work. Get ahead and keep ahead, and your success is toler­ ably sure. ALL accounts agree that the banks of New foundland were never more thickly sprinkled tlisiji now with icebergs, which for some mikown reason have drifted south this year in unusual number?.

No Captain or pilot would take charge of the boat; it was an impossi­ bility to navigate the Big Sandy with anything in the shape of a boat; and they would not go. Gen. Garfield, however, was not to be balked in this way. Determined that the provisions should go through to his starving men, ho took command of the boat himself and piloted her up the river, standing at the wheel one day and two nights. It was a perilous voyage up an untried stream full of eddies and currents, in which the little boat quivered and turned, at times threatening to make instant wreck of itself and all on board; but the indomitable energy of the General cjuried him safely through all these difficulties, and in due season himself and his cargo arrived safely at the camp, greatly to the joy of his suf­ fering soldiery. About the middle of Mmcli he made his famous Pound gap expedition, for a proper understanding of which a few words descriptive of the locality will be necessary. Pound gap is a zigzag openiug through the Cumberland mountains into Virginia, leading into a tract of fertile meadow-land lying be­ tween the base of the mountains and a stream called Pound fork, which bends around the opening of the gap at some little distance from it, funning what is called "the pound." These mimes originated in this wise: This mountain locality was for a long time the home of certain predatory Indians, from which they would make periodical forays into Virginia for plunder, and to which they would retreat as rapidly as they came, carrying with them the stolen cattle, which they would past­ ure in the meadow-land just men­ tioned. Hence among the settlers it became known as " the > pound," aud from it the gap aud stream took their names. After his defeat at Prestonburg, as lias been stated, Humphrey Marshall retreated with his scattered forces through this gap ioto Virginia. A force of 500 rebels was left to guard the pass against any sudden incursion of Gen. Garfield's force, wlio, to make assurance doubly sure, had built directly across the gap a formidable breastwork, com­ pletely blocking up the way, and behind which 5C0 men could resist the attack of as many thousands.

If he had known the 1 true character of the proposition made to him he would not have endured it, much less em­ braced it. Now, couple with this Mr. Ames' admission that he gave no explanation whatever of the matter to Gen. Gartield, then reflect that not a particle of proof exists to show that he learned anything about it previous to his conversation with me, and I think you will say that it is al­ together unjust to put him on the list of those who knowingly and willfully joined tho fraudu­ lent association in question.
