When a New York rascal gets into trouble he unearths some letters. Jas. D. Fish and Ferd. Ward are as desperate as Tilton was, though their letters are more clumsy artifices than the Moulton documents. Mr. Fish, as a plain business man, took a very roundabout way to find out what Grant knew about the contracts, but as a schemer he took a cunning way to involve General Grant by implication. He certainly never made a loan, except to his confederate Ward, on such an indefinite statement as the Grant letters, taken as evidence of government contracts.

THE BANE AND FILE.

The memorial services of to day are the most interesting in all the year to American citizens. The associations, at once melancholy and glorious, are tempered by time to a tender sentiment. equally at home in the hearts of the rugged veterans and gentle mourners of fallen husbands and sons. It is fitting to-day to honor the memory of the private soldier as fully as that of the more distinguished but no braver commander—very fitting to exalt the rank and file who volunteered without the inducements of any adequate reward, without the knowledge of the treasures to be poured out in bounties and pensions at a later day. Let the foremost figures in our grateful though to be those who filled the serried ranks which swept across Southern fields or up the mountain steeps, following where any dared to lead. It is told that when the allied armies occupied Paris after Waterloo that Blucher wished to blow up the bridge of Jena, memorial of Prussia's defeat Te protect the bridge, Wellington placed upon it a solitary Bentinel. The single red-coat, representing 60,000 British soldiers held the bridge against the angry Blucher. We would place before our renders, a3 a type of the army of liberty, of the genius of the Union's safety the humblest Indiana volunteer, for in him was all that made the Union army what it was. No marshal's baton nor general's stars lured him to war. Titles and pay could not fill companies whilst simple loVe of country swelled corps and diviaoins. More or less vividly the idea that this was the best government the world ever saw seized upon all, and indignant at treason the hosts of volunteers swept forward. The great majority fell in battle or returned still simple privates without the title which might call attention to their services. This is the memorial day for all the untitled he roes, who were so modest, yet so brave.

There was a great multitude of young men in whose future were enfolded wealth, honor, friends, family, but they were swept away to die Qbscure arid unknown further than revealed by a head-stone in Borne national ceme tery, which speaks eloquently to no relative or intimate friend. We raise an altar to the unknown, heroic dead. The southerners have already decked the graves of thg Confederate dead and recalled the deeds and sufferings of the sons and fathers who were all in all to many a home. We can well doubt the honor of many rebel leader in the lost cause but_„ wa....-cannot—question ... liieir bravery without belittling our own glorious dead. We must pause before passing sentence upon the rebel rank and file, for with too many of them "Theirs not to reason why—

Theirs but to do and die." We can not expect the memories of to-day to be forever vivid. Though for giveness and forgettiDg go together with all the forgiveness shown to the south, there is still no forgetfulness of our soldiers, their deeds, sacrifices and military genius.

How to keep the memories green of all American soldiers, how to honor loyalty, fidelity and chivalry whilst the wounds heal, the entrenchments are ploughed under, and the dismantled forts gradually disappear, may be learned of the men who fought the battles, the privates in blue or gray, who between the battles, on the outpost?, on the field covered with dead and dying, or in the hospitals, in friendly truce exchanged aid and comfort.

But Thackeray used it in his "Adventure of Pilip" before it became current in this country, and in exactly the sense that we employ it. -Well, bless my soul," Philip Is made to say, rtferlngto some mysterious talk about a candidate for the House of Commons, "he can't mean me.

Now that the mob, the flood, and the dramatic and the musical festivals are past, the Enquirer announces the appearance of a mad boy on the street, who barks like a dog, prances like a horse, and kicks like a mule. It required two policemen to arrest him. He was never known to have been bitten by a dog, yet has all the symptoms of hydrophobia,

But that supply was exhausted and we were as badly off as ever again. One Sunday a small boat was observed leaving Sullivan's Island and coming in the direction of Sumter. It had no white flag and contained only three men. When it got within 500yards ol the fort it was hailed by the .sentinel and ordered off. a shot being fired in front of it as a warning. The -laoat stopped and a figure in the stern-sheets commenced gesticulating violently and no doubt shouting, although we could not make out what he said. At last he seemed to give it up. He ceased gesticulating and sat down. Then some inexplicable proceedings were indulged in, and presently a large white flag was di-played,_ and the rowers resumed pulling toward the fort. The sentinel reported, "Flag of truce approaching," and the officer of the day ordered a boat away to receive it. But the flag of truce was too quick for him. While he was yet talking it came sweeping around the corner of the fort, and in an instant had hold of the wharf with a boat-hook. The officer of the day was furious at this irregular proceeding. He ordered the boat to cast off at once on pain of being fired into. "Fire away if ye loike and divil a hatr I care!" said Mclnerry, for he it was in the stern sheets of the boat. "Do ye suppose that after ruining my Sunday Bhirt by tearing the tail aff for a white flag that I'm going to be driven away like a dog without givin' the boys the tobaccy Meantime he was throwing plugs of tobacco ashore to the men. After distributing in this way a good armful of navy plug he dropped away without waiting for thanks, and the officer of the day promptly withdrew in order that the men might have aix opportunity of expressing themselves without committing a breach of discipline in his presence. This they did with a will, and many hearty cheers were sent after the generous and loyal Irishman who had riBked his life and ruined his Sunday shirt on their behalf.

Death of Bob Burdette's Wife. Decatur Republican. Carrie Burdette, wife of Robert J. Burdette, died at Aidmore, Pa., Monday. She was an invalid from her marriage, and the great humorist cared for her as he would a babe, giving her every possible comfort. Mrs. Burdette was the daughter of Auren Garrett, of Peoria, and was married to Burdette some fifteen years ago. Her father was opposed to Bob, and he made the course of true love of the young people anything but smooth. Bob was a clerk in the postoffice at that time, and Carrie was a beautiful young lady but with a will of her own that more than matched that of her father. One day the old man commanded her to discard Bob. She refused, and a violent altercation ensued. Carrie had an undefined trouble with her heart that this precipitated. She was stricken down with a spasm. They sent for Bob, and he found her pale and lifeless on the sofa. Here she managed to express wish that they might bo married before she died) and a clergyman was Bent for. The marriage of the great humorist was amid tears and sighs, the orange blossoms absent, and only the pallor of a dying face looking out from the heap of pillows. Strange to say she immediately began to recover, ana she soon regained her former strength with, it however, was an unaccountable malady.

A Snake Cures a Headache. James Carley recently suffered for a week with severe headache, fays the Danbury News. Every possible remedy was resorted to without relief. Finally one of his shopmates informed him that D. B. Wilkes could core it without fail. Mr. Wilkes, who is farmer, received him cordially, and at once assured him he could cure his headache. He requested Carley to accompany him to the cider-mill, which they entered, and Mr. Wilkes pulled out from beneath the press a box covered with a coal sieve. From the box he took alive black snake and wouad it around Carley's neck. Strange as it may seem, almost instan taneously the pain left his head, and has not returned since. Mr. Carley and his friends vouch for his cure. Mr. Wilkes also cures sprains and swellings in the same way. He explains the matter on the principle of animal electricity, whicn he supposes the snake possesses.

It was in a street car a couple of comely German girls were standing when a sudden jolt threw one of them into the lap of a handsome young Philadelphia Progress reporter seated in the corner. He expected she would startup, look bluabinglyembarrassed, and apologize, but she did nothing of the sort. She calmly turned round, faced him, and said: "If you'd as lief, sir, I'll stop here." He was the embarrassed one now. Gretchen kept her

This displeased the rebels, and a committee waited upon him and demanded that he withdraw his teams. The committee reminded him that he was a citizen of South Carolina, and that patriotism demanded that he should not help the enemies of his state. "A citizen of South Caroliny is it?" replied the drayman. "Faith, and do ye suppose I crossed the broad Atlantic to become a citizen of only ore Shtate Of course McInerry's motives may not have been unmixed with mercenary considerationsin that transaction, buttne following is believed to be pure.

THfi BOY CHAMMON

Bashfully swinging to and fro on one foot, and Bncking an orange between his sentences, the little fellow, for he barely stands 4 feet 6 inches, and looks to be not over 10 or 12 years of age, acknowledged that he had thrown the cigar-case boy, who stood two heads taller than he.

His bell-boy friends chimed in that "Claude is the stuff it wonld take a pretty good man to getaway with him, and other like testimonials to the vorite's powers. "What is your best hold Claude?" "I only wrestle catch-as-catch-can. "Have you ever seen any professional wrestling matches?" "No, but I have ieen some pretty good men it arouBd in the blacksmith shop. They do" some pretty lively work there." And hi? merry eyes twinkled. "Where were you born, Oland?"' "In Detroit. My father and mother are both dead.* They were born in Italy." "When are you going to tackle McLaughlin and the Jap?" 'Oh, now you are langhing at me," and the sunny-faced champion of the Bell-boy wrestling circles scampered off and joined his companions. A well known sporting man offers to put up $100 on Mutti against any other boy of his age, catch-as-cateh-can.

London Truth finds the following in the Scots Magazine, March, 1775 ''There was lately presented to the Empress of Russia a laboring man who had two rives, the first of whom brought him four times four children at a birth, seven times three, and ten times two. The second wife brought forth three children, and the other six tiines two. The whole number of children 'by the two wives amount to seventy-two."

AYER'S PILLS.

A large proportion of the diseases wine, cause human suffering result from derangement of the stomach, bowels, and liver. AYEB'S CATHABTIO PILLS act directly upon these organs, and are especially designed to cure the diseases caused by their detaugonient, including Constipation, Indigeg tlon, Dyspepsia, Headache, Dysentery, and a host of other ailments, for all of which they are a safe, sure, prompt, aud pleasant remedy. The extensive use of tlicse PILLS by eminent physicians in regular practice, shows unmistakably the estimation in which they are held by the medical profession.

These PILLS are compounded of vegetable substances only, and are absolutely free from calomel or any other injurious ingredieut.

A Sufferer from Headache writes: "AYEB'S PILLS are invaluable to me, and are my constant companion. I have been a severe sufferer from Headache,'and your PILLS are the only thing I cotud look to for relief. One dose will quickly move my bowels and free my head from pain. They are the most effective and the easiest physic 1 have ever found. It is a pleasure to me to speak in their praise, aha I always do so when occasion offers.

W. L. PAGE, of W. L. Page & Bro." Franklin St., Richmond,Va., June 3,1882. "I have used AYEB'S PILLS in numberless instances as recommended by you, and have never known them to fail'to accomplish the desired result. We constantly keep them on hand at our home, and prize them as a pleasant, safe, and reliable family medicine. FOU DYSPEPSIA they are invaluable. j. T. HATES."

Alexia, Texas, Jane 17,1882. The REV. FRANCIS B. HARLOWE, writing from Atlanta, Go., says: "For some years

From

ast I have been subject to constipation, which, in spite of the use of medicines of various lands, I suffered incressii Inconvenience, until some months ago began taking AYXB'S PILLS. Thev na' entirely corrected the costive habit, and have vastly Improved my general health."

AYER'H CATHABTIC PILLS correct irregularities of the bowels, stimulate the appetito and digestion, and by their prompt and thorough action give tone and vigor to the whole physical economy.

POISON

In the blood is apt to show itself in the spring, and nature ahonld oy all means be assisted in throwing it off. Swift's Specific does thif effectively. It is a purely vegetable, non-poisonous remedy, which helps nature to force all the nolson or taint out through the pores of the skin.

Mr. Robert A. Easley.of Dickson, Tenn writes, under date March 10,1884: "I had chills and feVer, followed by rheumatism, for three years, so that I was not able to attend to my business had tried almost every kind of medicine, and found no relief. A friend recommended Swift's Specific. I tried one bottle and my hcnltb began to improve, I continued until baa taken six bottles, and It has set me on my feet, as soond and well as ever. I recommend it to all similarly aflfeeted."

Letters from twenty-three (88) of the leading retail druggists of Atlanta say, under te March 24,18M: "We sell more of Swift's Specific than any one remedy, and three to ten times as much as any other blood medicine. We sell it to all classes, and many of the best families nse as a general health tonlo."
