Rise in your might, ye Democrats Ye stalwarts, brave and true, Nor falter in the glorious work Tour honor 'tis to do; And hold the standard high aloft, Nor let It trail in dirt, Whloh bears a name that spiked the guns, And bleached the bloody shirt! No need have we to offer proof Of that unsullied name. The country, North, South. East and West, Glows with its honored fame; For perjury and jobs and bribes It cannot be impeached One charge it owns it spiked the guns The bloody shirt it bleached! The ruby ensign now no more Republicans can wave. Who, to attain ignoble ends, Would rob the soldier's grave; Instead of war's dread emblem now rne nag 01 peace we'll flirt, Since Hancock's name has spiked the guns And bleached the bloody shirt! No more we'll hear of "solid South," Or-'Tebel brigadiers" They're "solid" for "t ne Country," and Of loyal men are peers; The treasured goal for which they strove At last, thank God, Is reached, For Hancock now has spiked the guns, The bloody shirt has bleached!

The re sult was a mixture of the two and the production of okra corn as shown to us. There was no shucks nor tassel on the corn. Raleigh Observer: An officer of the government,- who is now engaged in sounaing tne Dotcom or one of the sounds of our coast, thinks he has dis covered, far from the shore, an immense bed of phosphate rock.

General Grant's Future. Denver, Col, July 23. Theauestion "What are we to do with Grant Y" seems in a fair way to be settled, if the rumors which are begining to take shape here in connection with his present visit to the west may be accepted. A gentle man, whose means of obtaining infor mation on the point are good, tells me that the general has under se rious advisement a proposition from the Sian Pedro Mining Company, which is operating in New Mexico. He states that the real purpose ot the recent visit to New Mexico was that of examining the property of the company. It is a fact that he stopped but a day or two, and then passed on to the mining dis trict, like a business man with a place of destination before him. My inform ant tells me that the . company has made Genera Grant a proposition to connect himself with it at a salary not to be less than $25,000 per annum, to in a manner take general direction of the affairs of the company, but principally to give it prestige. The present presi dent of the company is Mr. George William Ballou, of Boston. .The prop erty forms part of the Canyon del Aqua Mexican grant. It was worked exten sively by the Mexicans from 1840 iintil the American occupation, and a city of 4,000 people was built there. It is stat ed that one nugget worth $7,000 was found. , It is certain that the placers are very rich, but the Americans have ound their working unprofitable on ac count of scarcity of water. If General Grant goes in he will advise the laving of water pipes from the Samlia Moun tains, some eighty miles distant. While visiting the mines ne maniiested great interest in them,' asking numerous questions and closely scutinizing them. He washed out an ore pan himself, which yield several colors and a nugget the size of a pin's head. - In case "the proposition is accepted General Grant will spend his time between New York and New Mexico. If he does not ac ceptit seems probable that he will form Some connection with the minning in terests of Coloiado. . He is now in Lead Tille, where Governor Routt is chaper oning.hiro. They explored' ' one of the Governor's mines to-day. FrOm Lead ville he goes to the- Jiew mining . re gion on tbje-Gunnisonaud Eagle rivers. As may well be imagined there isa gen eral dispoUon to. take jGrant into all new mining schemes; AHe is certainly destined -to become'a bonanza dnKv ; f Grant has accepted - the -presidency t the San Pedro Company; as ;alreadr Stated in The OBSETtrm " !:; : SARAH BERNHABDT. She Packs Her Art treasures for America The Skeleton in her Bo dolr. i Paris, the gay, the delfhtf ul, the si ren of cities, is as dull as a beauty in the morning after a mad rout All in terest has departed from her with the prorogation of the legislative bodies and the flight of the beau monde to the country and seaside. All whose affairs and means allow of their going out of town are enjoying the dotee far niente at the watering places or 'in quiet rural nooks. The journals hate never been so devoid of attraction, and the city it self reflects the blankness of these mir rors of Parisian life. When, however, nothing else is talked about, people talk about Sarah Bernhardt Monday she returns from Brussels. She will take a week's repose at her villa at Ste. Adresse, near Havre, before making active preparations for her trip to America. The company for the Amer ican tour is almost completed. It con sists of twenty persons and is selected with a view to casting -the "eight pieces of her repertoire as powerfully as pos sible. The costumes for "Hernani," "Adrienne Lecouvreur" and "Phedre" are all being made here. Rerhearsals commence in a fortnight at the Varie ties, which M. Bertrand has gallantly placed at Sarah's disposal. The rehears als will extend over four weeks and will be pretty severe, as it is proposed to avoid rehearsals altogether in Amer ica. HER HOUSEHOLD GOODS. Many of the tragedienne's art treas ures are being packed for shipment, to be used in America as a Bernhardt Gallery, which will be open "to inspec tion in the large cities during her tour. Among her penates shipped to New York will be the famous skeleton of her bed-room. It has a peculiar history. It is the skeleton of a young station of ficer, who committed suicide on account of disappointment in love. This ana; tomical souvenir was presented by the dead man's friend, Dr. Pozzo, to Sarah, who has a religious regard for it. How the skeleton will bear the handling of the American baggage smasher is a question which has not as yet been dis cussed by experts in the lady's pres ence. Sarah Bernhatdt's villa at Ste. Adresse is a pretty little retreat. It was one of the whims in which the tragedienne indulged about a year ago. She calls it La Solitude, and here she retires when she has the blues or wants to get away from the excitement of Paris of the"rash of the critic. She is extremely sensitive of newspaper -criticism. Nob long ago she said: fOne thing would prevent me from going to America namely, if I felt that the newspapers would treat too severely. Some London papers have treated me very badly. I once complained to the Prince of Wales of the matter, and he replied, "My dear friend, you are not so badly spoken of as my mother is.'

The Quak er City has had an heir to $4,000,000 among its people for several years. A young man in moderate circumstances, named William J. Carlin, and residing with his mother at No. 2,031 Mount Vernon street, is in receipt of letters trom London which point to the proba bility of his succession to the estate of an Australian millionaire. The testa tor, Alfred B. Carlin, a bachelor, re ported to be worth not less than $4,000, 000, was known up to the time of his death as the king of stock breeders in Australia, and lived in a way becoming his great wealth on a vast estate near Wagga Wagga, in that country. His name will be remembered by those who were interested in the tamous Tichborne trial, held in London six years ago, as the most conspicuous wit ness for the claimant to the Tichbome estates, appearing as the man who first employed Arthur Orton as a herder on his arrival in Australia, and whose tes timony as to the personal appearance of Orton when he first saw him corre sponded with Lady Tichborne's descrip tion of her son and heir as she knew him before he left home. According to Dr. Kenealy, Orton 's counsel, over $100,- 000 was contributed by Mr. Carlin to en able the claimant to establish his heir ship. Nothing was known of Alfred Carlins antecedents among the few with whom he associated, but he was generally supposed to be without rela tives. Shortly after his death, how ever, a will was produced by his attor neys, Browne & Silsby, in W agga Wag- go, directing the sale of his property and payment of his heirs, whom he named. Efforts were at once made by the attorneys to place themselves in communication with Mr. Carlin's heir, and the result, after considerable trou ble and delay, was that early last Janu ary a letter was received by William J. Carlin, at his Mount Vernon street res dence from a firm of Solicitors in Lon don, setting forth the demise of his un cle and '. requesting him to prove his identity, and thus hi claim to the ui heritance. After, recovering from his astonishment, Mr. Carlin, who had nev er heard of this uncle, took the letter to his mother, bhe recalled references to a brother which her husband once made during his lifetime, and advised her son to answer the letter.' The re sult has been a continued correspond ence, and the probable settlement of he property uuon the heir within a couple of months. , m Sirs. Wetmorel Death. London. July 26.
