CiiiCAoo, Nov. 5. A Washington
special savs the President in conver
sation to-dav admitted his chagrin at
1 1 if result f the elections, and there
is as good authority for the state
ment by one of his immediate asso
ciates, that in- will, at the 'proper
tim- indicate his preference for R.
R. Washburue as his successor.
In
his Message to Congress next month
he will, according to the same au
thority, take such grounds against
the Credit Mobilier fraud corrup
tionists of the Republican party, as
to direct attention to Wadibnrneas
one of tier pure and incorruptible
men of the party, on whose record
ho tarnish is to be found.
A 7 V. special says the President
has taken the Republican defeat with
great indifference. He expressed
some surprise at. the revolution in
Massachusetts, lint otherwise, as far
as is known, he said nothing. To
dav he refused to see any one but
Secretary Rristow, with whom he
was closeted half an hour. After
that he was reported unwell.

Leagues.
The existence of Leagues is indica
tive of misgovf rnmer.t. Under an
honest administration of good laws
there is no necessity for Leagues;
but when one class is allowed to con
spire against and oppress another,
protective organizations are t lie nat
ural consequences.
We believe the league of the
Granges will result beneficially to
the country, in bringing the farming
population together in social and ar
gumental converse up. on public
affairs; but we have warned them
from the start, and we repeat the
warning, that they can accomplish
nothing as a r'i.-s. in the way of cor
recting evils, and obtaining a fair
deal. They must ally themselves, as
ii)!lrt'h"tt:--, with the Democratic
party, to accomplish their aims.
The country is too large, and the di
versity of interest too great, to admit
of a special issue, unless it lie one
that interests, and is appreciated by
tho masses. The blacksmith, the
carpenter and the mason want a fair
deal, quite as much as the farmer;
and the merchant, the ship-owner,
and the machinist are entitled to
equal considerat ion. An occasion
sometimes -will occur when a League
of this class, or that, may win a tran
sient victory; but no solid ad vantage
is gained, no lasting benefit is se
cured. Has Come. The predicted revolt
of Senator Morton has come. The
Indianapolis .Jour, ml denounces the
President's adherence to the notion
of a third term, declares he could

pure politics if ho could be. The

The Cockroach.

The cockroach iz a bug at large.
He iz. one ov the luxuries ov civil
ization. He iz easy to domestikate, yield
ing gracefully to ordinary kindness,
and never deserting thoze who show
him proper acts of courtesy.
Wo are led to bcleve, on a cluts
examination ov the outward crust ov
these fashionable insekts, that they
are a highly successful intermarriage
between the brunette pismire and
the -,Vy..- bci-o
or common Amcr- !
ican grasshopper.
He don't leave the p?aco he waz
born at upon the slightest provoca
tion, like the giddy and vagrant ilea,
or the ferocious bed-butrg, and until
death (or some vile powder, the in- j
venshun ov man! knocks at hiz front
door, he and hiz brothers and sisters
may be seen with the naked eye ever
and anon calmly climbing the white
sugar-bowl or running foot races be
tween the butterpiates.
The coch roach iz born on the fust
ov May and the fust ov November
semi-annually, and iz reddy for use
in lifteen days from date.
Th'ey are born from an eg, four
from each eg, and consequently they
are all ov them twins. There is no
such thing in the
anmus as a single
cockroach
The maternal bug don't set upon
the eg as the goose doth, but leaves
them lie around loose, like a pint ov
sjiilt mustard seed, and don't seem
tw care a darn wether they get ripe
or not.
Rut I never knew a cockroach eg
fail tew put in an appearance. They
are as sure tew hatch out and run as
Kanada thistles, or a bad cold.
The; cockroach iz ov two colors,
sorrel and black. Thev are always
on the move, audi kan trot, I should
s y. on a good truck, and a good day,
cluss to three minutes.
Their food seems to consist, not so
much in what they eat as what they
travel, and often landing them dead
in my soup at t he boarding houses,
I have come to the conclusion that a
cockroach can't swin, but they kan
lio.it.
Naturalists have ah-o declared that
tlie cockroach has no double teeth.
This iz an important facUt . and ought
tew he introduced into all the prima
ry school-books of America
Rut the most, interesting feature
ov this remarkable bugg iz the love
lines:; ov their natures. They han't
bile nor sling nor scratch, nor even
jaw iM'-k. '1 uey arc so amiable that
1 have even known them tew get
stuck in t;.e butter, and lay there all
dav. and not holler for help, and ak-
tuallv

To realize the meakne.ss of those
uncomplaining little fellers, let the
p'.iiosophik mind just for one mo
ment compare them to the pesky ilea
who light noon men in hiz strength
and wone a in her weakness like red

just one bed-bugg left in the world,
and he waz waiting for my kandle
tew go out and for me tew pitch into

In conclusion, tew show that I ain't

The excelence of Oregon fir as
ship-building wood has been so un
mistakably proven that we are sur
prised and pained to notice the at
tempts that have been made, either
directly or by implication, to detract
from its icpntation for the purpose
of advancing private interests. Not
long ago the relative strength of
hickory, Fastern oak and yellow fir
was determinated' tested in this city,
when it was shown that the fir was
fully equal to the best Fastern oak,
breaking under the same strain.
Now comes a wood-preserving com
pany which advertises, that, by put
ting the fir through its process of
curing, it can be made as durable as
Fastern oak, thereby implying, or
insinuating that it docs not, in its
natural condition, possess tlie quality
of durability to an equal extent with
the oak, and modestly proposes to
remedy the defect for the mere triile
of SO per thousand feet! We are pre
paring, and will shortly publish a
statement which will prove, beyond
all doubt, that the yellow fir is more
durable and less reliable to rot than
the best Fastern oak. without going
through any process for the preser
vation of wood; and we shall give so
many silent examples of this fact that
no one will presume to question its
reliabilitv. -S. F. Com. Herald.

! Their children have grown up inher
! iting their iiarents' animosity, and
j their eldest sons have several times
! been subpieuaed as witnesses in law
i suits which have grown out "of tlijs
diilicultv. The case had been a sort
of suit in chancery, having run on
from year to year, Loth men spend
ing their money in lawyers' fees
without any legal conclusion.
About a year ago the two farmers
awoke one Monday morning to find
that each had lost a child one his
youngest son. and the other his only
daughter. Like the houses of Mon
tague and Capulc t, in llomeo and Ju liet,
the scions of the two rival
houses had secretly cherished a fond
ness for one another, and, without
divulging their passions, they met
clandestinely and carried into effect
an elopement.
A week passed, a't the end of which
the father of tha runaway daughter
was called on to go to Frie and at
tend again the everlasting lawsuit.
He went in early to the office of the
lawyer, and taking up one of his
weekly papers, read the marriage
notice of his Emma. It was a terri
rible blow, and he went out iuto the
yard to try and walk oil' his excite
ment. All that passed through the
old gentleman's mind was not known,
but there seemed to be a desperate
struggle within, which resulted in
his returning to the lawyer's oftico
and postposed the business. Then
he drove directly .to his farm, and
had a long private interview with his
wife; then he did what he had not
done tor twenty years went over
and called on his enemy. Ho was
found sick, having been con lined to
his room since the abandonment of
his favorite son. Rut the two far
mers met, and both for a few min
utes stood face to face in profound
silence.
At length the father of Emraa
spoke:
" I have come to settle that dis
pute; let the children have a lot on
either side of the lane, and I will
build thorn a house'
" And I will furnish ic."
So the recreant children were sent
for and forgiven, and canie home to
seek their parent' blessing. And
now there are no mor.9 lawyers for
the two farmers, but each has faith
fully fulfilled his contract in regard
to his house and furniture.
The ?s lumber of Type i.i a TVewspapcr.
The Pougiikeepsie E-jle, in an ar
ticle on " how mistakes happen in
newspapers," figures up tlie typo
used in a newspaper the size of tlie
Eaijlc at GOO.ooO, . e., the actual
number of bits of metal arranged and
rearranged every day in preparing tt
newspaper of that size for the press.
We suppose few people think of the
printing trade as one of the most ex
acting and particular of all the
handicrafts, but it is. In making
typo, variations that might be allow
ed in the linest machinery would
render the type useless. It is very
rarely that type furnished by two
separate foundries can be used to
gether without a great deal of trou
ble, though they try to make them
after the same standard. We read
once in a while of a wonderful piece
of cabinet work, or mosaic work, con
taining ten, twenty, or fifty thousand
pieces, tlio maker of which has spent
months or even years of labor in pro
ducing it and people go to see it as a
curiosity; but the most elaborate and
carefully fitted piece of work of this
kind does not compare with that
which the printer does every day,
for minuteness of detail and accuracy
of fitting. The man who does tho
iirst is looked upon as an artist a
marvel of skill and if a hundred of
his pieces are put in wrong side up
or turned the wrong tv.iv. it is not
observed in the general effect; but if
the printer, in fitting ten times ?
many pieces together in a single el ay,
puts one where another should be,
or turns one the wrong way, every
body sees it, and is amazed at the
" stupid carelessness of those prin
ters." Has Rfn Its Hack. -The No

has been no such change in public
