It doesn't lie in some peopla to get along Iflth servants. They hate no tact, no fctECi ol mansgirg. There la a great deal in managing a servant in each a way that tb.9 minion isn't aware of it. Bat some people don't know bow to da this, and consequently a servant that is a jewel in my well-regulated household is utterly tseleia In my neighbor's service. Nov, not lorrg ago I had occasion to part with a colored mas. I didn't want to cast him cut upon the cold world, because I feared that if the world got too cold he would come back to me. So I unloaded him upon a neighbor. I never had & ripple of trouble with hi in. I had employed hira csterjslb!y to groom tho horse occi slcrally and mow the lawn once or twice a jeer. I soon leaned that he was raaEicg n African cormi'cry aid a poker layout in ray ttab, and the general ap-pterai-rcct ay prtm'ses finally brought e:c letters fcrl the American Mi-sionary Union, asking permission to establish one cf their Congo cut stations between my tarn and the kitchen. This, as mach es anything elte, induced ma to part with Albert. He snipped with me under the cca de plume of Albert Wilson, but I noticed that some of the natives called him "Lame Jak." and he requested me, in writiE? his letter of recommendation to call hin Thompson t'asley. Fy aad by my reigtabor said to me: "That man, Sim Norton, yon eent me did von ever have Dy trouble with him?" "I 8iid, "No, never." "Well," 62id my neighbor, "I can't get alon? with him. Ue won't do one thirg I tell him, not a thing." uOh, wtll," I taid, "he tried that on me, too, when he first came, but I settled that n short order." "Ho did yon mansga?" arked my neighbor. "Weil," I told him, "I jxüt tellirg him to do anything." And co you know my neighbor was real argry with me, and abused me, and eaid I waa a fool and had deceived him. You sse, he had no tact. That very iipht Albert landed on my coaet again, lie conilded t3 me that hi3 real name wts Jamea Sinclair, and he brought with him hia brother, whom he introduced a3 Walter Taylor. They took r.p their old quarters ia the bam, aid boarded with rre a week before I was able to teenre tte:n places in the county jail. They both left me with sincere regret, and Altert eaid, in partirg, that any time I wanted hi in to come back, a letter ßddrested to Charles Martin would reach hira. Albert was a sadtiie colored pagan, but he was the richest man in names I ever worked for. TEE TASI.S or AVTlIOr..Hir. Nclody but us literary people knows haw closely grows the attacement between the author and his characters. It is re lazed cl ilrs. Harriet Beccher S'.owe that when, from the pagf3 of her manuscript, she read the death of. little Eva. the entire family sat bathed in tears, nor could one o them speak a word, bat all mournfully separated, qoing to their roome ts though they had just attended the fcxeral of a dear friend. Some frieaJs met Thackeray on the street one day, axd his coutenance bore traces of intense fcrief. "What is the matter?" they asked. "1 have jnst killed Colonel .Newcome," he sobbed, bursting into tears, as he hurried away. Charles Dickens had the same ex perience. So did I. Mine was even more harrowing. When I wrote my first fanny Etory about Mr. Eilderback going up on the roof to shovel oil the snow, and making an avalanche of himself and sliding down into a water barret, I was almost heart broken. I didn't kill Mr. Eilderback myself. Ah, indeed, I hadn't the heart to do that. The manag, irg editcr, that dear, considerate ecuI, saw how I felt abcut it, and he killed him for me. He al&o killed all the other detr, lovicg, gentle characters in the sattcb. Ard as I was leaving he remarked that he would kill me if I ever came back with any more such stuff. lie meant it, tco. People who aaw me coming out of the cfh.ee Ecraping dust, and lint, and pine slivers, and routa cf paste ofl' my back, saw at once, by my giitf-stricken face, that something had happened. Cut I could not tell them what. My poor, bursti nz heart was too full. JCST CAUGHT OS TBK FLY. It is true, my son, there is always room at the top, but nobody wants it when he goes to a hotel. F.emember when in college that the best sculler or the curviest pitcher often stands at the foot of his class. The woman whose head is turned by fattery would feel much Hatter if Ehe heard what ia said when her back is turned. Women do not swear, but the profanest man in America would give $5 if he could imitate the expression of a good woman when she hits her thumb with the hammer, andsajs, "Mercy on me!" A ioan dreamed that hi3 mother-In law was dead, and langhed aloud in his sleep. The next coining she came to his house with three trunks, a vapor bath, a foot muff, and two pags. Now he does not dare to go to sleep, and when he falls Into a doze frcm exfep.ustion he shrieks with fright and awakes. He is afraid he will have another dream. A CCWAEDLT iySI5L ATI05. "Does your cow cringe and curl," asks the New England Farmer, "and appear nervous and fidgety when you sit down to milk her?" Well, not much, she doesn't fche isn't that kind of a cow. She isn't one of your shy, timid, bashful cows. Ehe just fixes her eyes on vacancy with a glare that will raise a blister on an oak knot, sticks her tail straight up in the air, tiff as a poker, plants three feet firmly on the ground, and than feels around with the other for the milk pail, milk stool, milk maid; finds them; fires them up somewhere Into the bine empyrean, and remarking, "Ha, ha!" amid the shouting, jumps ovr a six-rail fence, and tramples down an acre of young garden. Don't talk about cringing and curling to a cow that has to be milked with a pipe, line, and a pumping station. IIZEBALITY OF COErOBATIOSS. Talk about corporation! having no souls! Here only a few days ago an employe who had been twenty years in the office of a euperitendent of a certain express compan found upon his return from his wedding tour an envelop addressed to him containing a $5 bill and the "best wishes of the company." Wasn't that grand? Waan't that Christian and soulful in the company ? Wasn't it, now? Tell yon It was. Y. a I thought, the other day, when I had to pay that company $3 for carrying a package worth sixty cents down Into tne next county that It was going to make come wedding present to somebody.

The reason for that is at once ap. paient. It enables her Majasty to get a better grip on the wing of a chicken. In wrestling with the common hen of Com me ice at the dinner table, she mast be handled without gloves, or the battle is lest. Gloves would also be very much in the way when her Majesty desired to clutch an ear of corn by eaca end, the tip and the lobe, so to sreak, while she gnawed at it amidships. Yon see, there are a hundred emergencies that might arise daring the progress of a sta'e dinner nterein gloves would be in the way. 1LIASCKES OF ANTICIPATION. Very often, my son, it is the dread of punishment, rather than tbe punishment itself, that restrains ns from evil doing. Many times a boy would gladly run away, and go fishing on Snnday, if he could only get bis father to thrash him in the morning before he Eets out; then he could enjoy the whole long day without a pang. Bat when he has to wait until evening for it, the dread of that unknown ill that awaits him clouds all his skies and pitches all his songs in miner keys. Pf N'T CATCH WHAT YOU DON! WAST. Ye, my sor, it is true that molasses catches nits better than doth vinegar. Bat it is also tree that, cs a rule, yon don't want to catch flies; you want to drive then; away. Argil, dct't fmear jourself with moNsses Ltc yon are liable to be exposed to Ilies. There is only one kind of Mies ycu want to catch, and moIa3sts Isn't twet enough ncr sticky enrr.gh for that. Time flies, my 6CE, time nits. A VERY LI' HT PISCOUNT. A newspaper has the startling head-line, "A New York drummer elopes with a married woman and her three children!" Ob, well, don't get excited about thatl That's only five otf; tha: isn't mach for a New York drummer. TOO OLD TO IE fiOOD. No, Edward, it hasn't. Yon are correct; the ii a L- of our beloved country has no Ecars of centuries. It is a tiiz withoat a bi&tory. It is no flattering dairy. It is a ag that makes history, and it makes good his'ory, too. You keep right along with your studies, and doa't grieve bacause the ÜasO'sn't as old as the grave. Tbe older a rlag is, the more s'-ains there are on it; the more wrong it has protected, the mare evil and shame and iniquity, tyranny and foal abuse it has pronely floated over. A tiig five hundred yeais old i? very apt to be ashamed of every thread in its fabric. Would you compare the vicious old sinner of eighty years with the laughiEg babe in the cradle? THE l.OXELY MAN. There are 1,400,000,000 pecp'e living oa the jlanet which we inhibit. And yet there is now and then a man who wonders what the rest of ns will do when he dies. There are people in "society" who honestly think tha: a'd the world closes its eyea whtn we lie down to sleep. Tnere are men who fear to act according to their own convictior s, becnse, perhaps, ten persons in a crowd of 1,400,0X.000 will lauh at them. Why, if a man could only rl:e every moment what a bustling, bu7, f assy important little atom he i3 in all this great ant hill of important, fuspy It tie atom, every dey he would regard himself less, and tfciLk still Kss of tha other molecules in the corral. KOHEF.T J. ßl'F.DETTF.. THE WORKING WOMEN. They Are Mure Contented Than tbe Idi Daughters of the Kich. an Francisco Call Barely no able-bodied. self-respe?ting woman has any complaint to make of the lact that in the past lifty years there has been secured to her the right to earn her living. This is rather an occasion for rejoicing, in this age, when the public press is devoting so much attention to opening fields of labor for women, when from pulpit and rostrum and work shop and school room are coming words of help and encouragement, it Is curious to hear one voice raised in lamentation over the fact that all this means the setting of women to work, as if they had not always been working slaving, in fact in unrecoenized corners and against fearful odds, as though the socalled carte of labor had not. for women as wtll as men, concealed the "fairest boon God's love could send;" as though there were any reason in fact for such a statement as the one that wome i who are ont in the world at work are grov leg hard and bitter and losing their worn aly delicacy, etc. The writer's experience with eeveral organizations of workingwomen has been that among no class of women are there so few bitter or discon'ented ones. Nothing so broadens one's life and mind and character as heartv, wholesome work. It is the greatest of follies to spend so mach time in commiserating the hard lot of the working girl in having to work. Many an idle, novel reading, discontented daughter of wealth is more to be pitied. 1'ity the conditions under which women have to work, the inadequate wages, the unreasonable demands, the cruel oppression and the many disadvantages which the agitation of strong minded women have cot jet been snnicient to remove, but offer your sympathy to a bright, wide awake American business girl, because she has to work, and note her astonishment at your views. And who with the score of examples npen every side of noble women, supporting themselves and others, going to and from their business daily, and maintaining in every relation of life a dignity and delicacy of womanly character that commands the respect of all, dares maintain that our business women are losing their delicacy and refinement? Nor do men lose their chivalry. It is the testimony of all who have tried the experiment, that the best way to elevate the tone of a business establishment in which there are many employes, is to employ self respecting women and let them work side by side with the men. An Eastern manager of a mercantile business which boasts an office in every large city in the Union, desirous of Intro ducing a better tone of morality and deportment among the employes of his office, tried the experiment of employing women in eeveral of the departments. The experiment was a decided success, and to-day that office, for thorough business ability and equipment, and for the moral and social character of its employes, is a model among the offices of that concern, and its example is widely copied. Men do not respect women less for being independent and self helpful, and the chivalry that only regards protected womanhood as worthy of consideration is a poor sort of article that the world is just as well off without. Who Wrote Grant's Memoirs? IN. Y. Epccial to Chicago Times. It was rumored to-day that Gen. Adam Badean had Instituted proceedings against Mrs. Gen. Grant to recover $35,000, which it was claimed he asserted was due him for having written the book known as "The Memoirs of Gen. Grant." It was also stated that Col. Fred Grant, having learned of the suit that was to be brought against his mother, had consulted Roacoe Conk ling and W 1111am M. Evarts and endeavored to secure them to defend Mrs. Grant, but that both declined and advised Col. Grant to settle with Gen. Badeau on the terms proposed by the latter. A gentlemen who Is well acquainted with the facts surrounding the writing of tbe Grant memoirs told a reporter tiat Col. Fred Grant had said that whn Ce:i. Grant was working on the book he had callfd Gm. Badean to his assistance to verify certain data appertaining to batt'.f i and incidents in the late civil war, aa t that farther than that Gen. Badeau had nothing to Co with the writing ol the book,
WERE THEY POISONED?
ic Icniiry I'.a ths Rscnt üj.leri:aj Fe. tu it HGütirgtco. The Coroner Storped the Funeral and Took Possession of tho Body Anal jsis of the Ke mains in Fregreis at Ft. Wayne. Hcstisgton. March lC.ISpecia1. The myteriou8 death of John B. Yonng, on last Tuesday, and the serious illness of his entire family, with the exception ot a married daughter, is the subject of considerable comment here, and there are many who do not believe the report which was at the time given ont, that he had been poisoned with mouldy cheese. It is charged by many that some other poison was U3ed, and unfair means are suspected. At the request of Dr. Leyman, at whose grocery the cheese was bought, Coroner Wright stopped the funeral of Mr. Young and took possession of the body. He has sent some of the cheese like that purchased by the Youngs and the heart, longs, liver, kidneys and stomach to a competent chemist at Ft. Wayne for analysis, and an answer In regard to the cheese is expected to-day. The coroner began the examination of witnesses. Dr. Leyman testified that he took a part of the came cheese home and that it in no way afitcted any of his family. It was also developed that Bo3e, who ate some cf the cheese given to Mr. Ycnng, came near dying, and his physicians say that from his symptoms he thought he had been poisoned with arsenic. Nathaniel Mason a son in-law cf the deceased took him the cheese that it is said poisoned him with the rest of his supper which he ate at his batcher shop. One fact that is being connected with thia atlair is that Mason who is a painter some time ago, was woi king with a man who was poisoned with croton oil, which had been pnt in his dinner backet, while Mason's dinner was all right, although it was put up at the same place. Mas Da married Mr. Y'oangs youngest daughter and her death weich occurred about four years ago was more or less mysterious. Mrs. Young, the widow of the deceased, and the other immediate members of his family are satisfied that all of the suspicions of foul play are groundless. Mr. Young's two brothers, who live at Crown Point, are anxious that the investigation go on, as they think it strange that they were not apprised ot the serious illness of their brother when there was ample time to have done so. It is believed that the Young's domestic affairs were not the most pleasant, as he has slept in his butcher shop more of the time tbao at home for more than a year and had his meals sent to him. DOWN AN EMBANKMENT. A Laekawana Traio Takes a Tumble With Fatal Kesnltit Tbo Injured. BlNGHAMTOJ, N. Y., March 1G. An accident occurred on the Delaware, Lscka wana & Western railroad at Tracy's bridge this morning to a passenger train which left BufTalo at 0:30 last night The rails spread, and all the cars following the smoker left the track, and rolled, one oa top of the other, to the bottom of a thirty foot embankment. There they caught fire from the stoves, and soon they were a mass of red hot embers. Passengers crawled out of the windows aa best they could. The following is a list of wounded as far as ascertained: Hok. David Grat, of BufTdlo, and his brother, who were on their way to Cuba ; both seriously injured. J. P. TrcKiR, Pullman car porter, New York: badly cut and burned is dying. C. Colkman, also Tullman car porter, EuÖalo; badly crushed. Miss R. Wei ster, Oil City, Pa ; back severely injured. W. Boehmke, Cleveland, O., bad cuts on hed. J. J. Zi.vmef.man, Buffalo; braised In side and kntes. Mihs Plant, Hamilton, Ont. ; bruised and cut. Moeeis Link, Sandusky, 0 , fracture of clavicle and two ribs broken. Many others were more or less bruised and cut, but were able to take care of themselves. Tbe wounded named are at the city hospital. David Gray of BufTalo, who was an In valid en route to Cuba, in company with his brother, is unconscious from tne shock and internal injuries. His brother is able to walk about. The pas&engers lost all their hand baggage and those in the sleepers their money and iewelry. The passengers say the accident was not caused by the spreading rails as claimed by the company's officials, but doe solely to flimsy nature of day coach which was old enough for retirement. The Admission of Utah. Washington, March 10 The bill introduced by Senator Butler to-day for the admission of Utah as a state provides that the qualifications necessary to take part in the electton of delegates to the constitutional convention directed to be held by the bill shall be the same as are now rerequired in elections of members of the territorial legislative assembly. The Utah commission is granted power to apportion the state into 100 election districts and on the day o; the regular annual election in August, 1SSS, delegates shall be chosen to a constitutional convention to meet at Salt Lake city on the second Tuesday of December, ltS8. if, after organization, the delegates shall adopt the constitution of the United States, they shall have the right to frame a state constitution which shall contain, among other things, an irrevocable ordinance providing that perfect toleration of religious sentiments snail be secured, and that no inhabitant of the state shall ever be molested in person or fireperty on account of his mode ot reigious worship. If the constitution formed by this convention shall be ratified by tbe people of the territory the president is required to issue a proclamation admitting the state into the Union. febe Died Content. Boston Record. A woman of that large class of people who get all their participation in the goings on of high life through reading reports of them in the newspapers, and all the food for their imaginative life through the stories in the "weeklies," was stricken down and lay dying. A piously inclined neighbor, feeling that her spiritual state needed looking after, sent for a elergyman, who made a professional call. After some questions exhortation and advice, he asked, as he was leaving, if there was anything she would like him to do for her any material thing she would like to have attended to. After a momentary pause tbe woman answered: "Yes, sir; I'd feel very grateful if you'd send me the last number of the - Weekly. It must be out by this time, and there's a story in it I've been reading; I'd like to know what becomes of the people in it before I die." The clergyman left, shocked beyond expression, but the woman's husband, oomlng in later, had a better appreciation of the ideal vacuuia in tia wlie'i bouI that had
never been filled. He got the desired Weekly, read her the fate of the characters, and she died content.
II IN HANCOCK'S DEFENSE. A Letter to Senator letalis From a Mem br of the General' Staff. New York Special. Colonel Finley Anderson, who was on General Hencock s staff during the civil war, has addressed the following open letter to Senator Ingalls at Washington: New Y ork, alarch 12, 1S3S. To Eon. "John J. lnttail, 'resident pro tern., United 6ttea Senate, Washington, v. C: eir 1 tare jnst received 4 Copy cf tne ConKreKiontJ Record containing theofficial report of your recent speech, in wblch you not only Insult the chief magistrate of the nation, but attempt to dishonor tbe memory of bothllancock and McL'lellan by earning eacn of them as navlrg been an ally of tbe Confederacy. As a surviving ntmrer ef General Hancock's staff, who shared with him the toils and the triumphs of the civil war. and aa a friend whom be nonored wiih bis confidence and affection to the end of his DarrelcEs life. I can not bear in si.ence jour hiatal blow at my old commander. I mufct, tterefore, as a sol jier and a citizen, protest against any utterances tbat Imply an Impeachment of his loyalty to his country. When the summtr llowers bloom asrain on the p:vcs of tbe heroic dead a quarter of a century will have passed since the cattle of Oettjbt urg tecame tbe arena where the valor of tbe North and the South alike illustrate 1 thcgrcatnetsol the American ppople, and commanded the admiration of tbe world. The name of that peaceful Pennsylvania village btpUzed anew with their mingled blood, was thus made immortal as the symbol of a national power equal to any on earth. The crowning victory ol that combat has proved under f rovidence as clearly as though we hal heard the voice of God eay himself that tao-e principles of liberty and law and fraternity and union in earnest devotion to which Hancock lived aud died, are essential to the welfare of mankind. To this result the highest human achievement of this century, Hancock contributed more than any other soldier in the field. Nhen BeycoMs fell on the morning of the first day, It waiiiaucok whom Meade selected to take supreme command in front with power to choose the ground where the great battle of the war tbould be fought out. It was Hancock who planted his colors on Cemetery Kidgc, where he rallied our disordered troops and formed the lines on those historic h-Mtus, beyoLd wbih the risirjg tide of rebellion never raffed. It was Hancock by the counter-charge which saved the honor of the army on the evening of the second day. It wag Hancock who ropu.fed that grand assault, with the most brilliant in the buesIs of the war, when the Mower of the army of Northern Virginia withered and died before tbe fortitude of the Armv of the PotomaT in the final struggle of the third day. It was thus that Hancock won at Gettysburg a triple crewn of glory. hiaturallv enough, both houses of Congress adopted a joint resolution to tbe eflect that, in addition to tbe thanks which had been voted to tte cßicf r and soldiers of the Army ol the Potomac, "For the skill and heroie valor which at tttttsburg repulsed, defeated and drove back, brr ken ami dispirited tee veteran army of the rebellion, the gratitude of the American people and the thauks of their representatives in Corgress are likewise due. and are hereby tendered to Maj. Gen. W. 8. Hancock for his meritorious aid const 1CUOU8 bbare in that great and decit-ive victory." In view of Hancock's constant and conspicuous eiviee to his Cuuntry for more than forty years, sealed as that service was by bis own blocd, and in view of his proverbial purity of character, it is amazing bow any man could rlkein the Senate chamber to defame his memory. But having had tbe audacity to do so, tho least yon can do in reparation of this cruel wrong alike to Hancock's memory and the patriotic rentiment t the country is to rise aain in tte .Senate chamber and make a full retraction und apclcgy, Bespecfnly, yonrs, ISigned Finley Andeeson. EUGENIE'S ROMANCES, A Love-Latter of the Kx-Empresa Which fl'i Sold at Auction In Paris. The love-letter of the Empress Eagenie which was sold the other day at auction mart is one out of a bundle containing a good many, says a Paris letter to London Truth. P.CS88, to whom it was addressed, was a patriotic and liberal senor, and the uncle of a Spanish deputy as charming as distinguished, and still younc, Luiz de Ilnte, third busband of Mme. UaUz.i, nee Bonaparte Wyte. It was written at Eeyonne alter the Empress and her mother had returned thither from Brighton, where they had spent a uharmir g summer, so far away back in the past as lsiu. The Countess de Teba was in that season a belle of the Chain pier and Kemp Town esplanade. Ehe was devoted to Rosas. But, souvent femme varie; the Dac de Sesto cut him out before the Empress hal time to pay another visit to England in 148. Thereby hangs a dramatic incident which, should the Empress ever be brought into a sensation novel, might, if well worked up, brirg a fortune to the novelist. The Comtesse de Montijo end her beauteous daughters were essentially birds of passage at Madrid, Paris, Belgium, Brighton, London and Clifton. Eugenie was too pretty and successful a man slayer not to have felt what an unchant ibla world this is. This is why she sent Rosas the image of a heart traced with a psn, "instead of blowing to him lots of kisses." While the correspondence was going on with the Spanish patriot, Due a'Osaanna had the fatuity to suppose that he was her loved one. What brought Mme. ds Mcntijo so much to England was her old Intimacy with the late Lord Clarendon. He took a scarcely lees deep interest in her second daughter, whom fate had marked out to be to the Satz canal what Isabella the Catholic was to America, and to be the unconscious tool of Bismarck in abasing France and buildirg np his new German Empire. Lord Clarendon's friendship led to the Comtesse de Montijo and the future Empress btiDg invited to Cambridge Hou3e wheD both were under a cloud on the continent. The then laughing and garrulous young Spanish beauty, who was born in a garden during an earthquake, always had a presentiment that a strange and brilliant destiny awaited her. Rosas, I hear, shared it. But it would have greatly astonished Lord Palmer8ton were a soothsayer to have told him that the light-hearted senorita W8s to upset his policy In Egypt, and to bring to a head the scheme of the Prince consort, Stock mar, and Bansen, for German unity. Sleeping Her Life Away, I Philadelphia Press. 1 The village of Attica, N. Y., has a re markabla sleeper in Mrs. Emma Althouse. Lately she sank into a lasting Blumber. Her first sleep was of three days' duration. She was awake for twenty-four hours afterward, and then slept for seven days. Her periods of trance or slumber have increased lately, so that now she has been asleep for fifteen days. Every device known to medical science has been tried, but without success. Ms. Althouse lies on her left side, with her right arm thrown over her head, and her posture is that of a person who has just fallen into a heavy sleep after a great fatigue. She weighs 1C0 pounds, and has heavy, dark brown hair, white skin and rosy cheeks. Her lips are continually moving, as it her dreams were very pleasant. She has frequently been heard repeating the hymn, "Nearer, My God. to Thee." When awake the lady talks rationally. She has taken but two quarts of milk since she began to sleep, and her stomach is Incapable of holding any solid matter. She is bat twenty-two years old, and is the mother of a pretty boy with golden curls and deep blue eyes. The doctors expect that she will sleep herself to death, either this time or in the next trance. Before she went to Bleep she said she should not wake before twenty days. Six Men Killed. Lakito, Tex., March 15. InteMigen-e has reached here to-night of a serious incident on the Mexican National railway, fifty miles south of Saltillo. A construe tion train was taking a large number i t Mexican laborers from Saltillo to the end of the track. While en route one car containing thirty men jumped the track and rolled down the embankment, killing six and seriously injuring twenty The train was under the control of ths contractor, and the company is not responsible for the accident,
CONKLING AND INQERSOLL.
Some Interesting Gossip About theU:nui9 of the New York Bar. iNew York Tribune.1 Pel taps the most unique, If not tbe most impressive figure at the bar of New York is floscoe Oonfcling, he of the curly forelock and the majestic frown. Mr. Ccnkling is not in ordinary practice. There are hints abroad of great fees that have been paid him in exceptional litiatiocs. He will appear for Judge Hilton ia the Stewart will case, and I am told that th.'s retaining fee in that impending conflict was a check for $25,000. The same sum is said to have been paid him by the Bell tele pLöße company, and the Impression generally exists that the ex-senator considers fees of $10,000 very small potatoes, indeed, and scarcely worth his while. Not that I actually know of any $10,000 fee which he has spurned, nor of any lowly litigant, unable to offer more, at whom his sensitive nos9 has b3en disdainfully elevated. It would be safe to say that he is employed rather for the strength ot his name and political associations and reputation than for any extraordinary legal attainments. After he resumed practice, upon the legislature's refusal to return him the trust hs had abandoned, his first case brought him into controversy With Mr. Choate. It was on a motion for a non- suit, and he addressed the court for six hours. The court listened indulgently, for the speaker was an ex senator, an orator of distinction, and it was his first case, although motions for a non-suit rarely occupy half that time in their disposition. In beginning his reply, Mr. Choate referred in that quietly sarcastic way cf his to the reappearance of Mr. Conklicg, and welcomed him back to the bar with much apparent cordiality. "I had much pleasure," said the amiable Choate, "in listening to the address with which he charmed your honor, and I shall venture no other criticism upon it than that it was not long enough. It occurs to me to advert, however, cot in the way of criticism, but only of friendly suggestioD.to one of my learned friend's remarks. He alluded to something I bad said as 'false, utterly devoid of truth.' Of course, my friend forgot for the moment where he was, of whom he was speaking, and to whom hia remarks were being addressed. But if he wishes to succeed as an advocate, he must abandon the methods of a politician. He mast keep in mind the ft thai he is in court and not in congress." It is often said of Mr. Con kling that he Is too mnch given to bantering for success in eerions work, and tbat he impresses himself rather than his client upon the attention of the court. He is grandiose in manner, he employs picturesque phrases and indulges in much cynical repartee, but his grasp of facts and law is none too 6trong. The tendency of the cearts now; adays is toward business p ".iples Brilliant oratory is effective Ou v in the eyes of admiring clients, who are uazzled by its style and fancy it must also carry away the courts. Col. Itgersoll is another member of the picturefque school of lawyers, aud mnch rcsemblee Mr. Conkling in oratorical pro pt nsity. There is this difference, however, that no element of self appears in the breezy spechts of the colonel. They are heart aid soul for hia client. He is at his best when engaged in presentirg his facts. His statements are lucid and full, his illustrations dramatic and ingenious, his manner frank and persuasive. Therefore, despite his somewhat slight acquaintance with the forma of practice and the law as the books give it, he makes an excellent jury lawyer. In ap pearance our American free-thinker bears a close resemblance to his English friead, Mr. Bradlangb. The likeness is so striking that Erglishmen who have met the colonel on the streets of New Y'ork have epoken to him, actually believing that they were addressing Bradlaugh. It is an odd fact about the colonel that he always seems to get on the wrong Eide of public questions of the day. Most persona who are regarded as erratic upon theological questions like Mr. Colljer, Mr. Frothingham and Mr. Adler, for instance, are distinguished for their zealous advocacy of everything that ennobles hnman life, that tends to make man better and happier. Their hatred of creed makes them all the more earnest in efforts to promote movements of progress and relorm. But it seems to bo tbe other way with the colon eL He sneered at the boodle prosecutions, and spoke savagely of the "atmosphere of conviction" in the courts where the boodlers were tried. Some of his conspicuous clients are men cf doubtful antecedents. Bat his speeches in court, like hi3 wicked lectures, are full of huaior, invective and tenderness. I heard him in a recent casa speak of his adversaries as "vultures sitting on tte fence of expectancy." He alluded to them also as "lcllicg around the hole in the ground m which my client was digging, and when his spade unearthed the precious ore, they all with one accord jumped in upon him and attempted to rob him of tbe fruits of his toil." At this point his client, Edward Stokes, plucked the colonel's eleeve and whispered in his ear. With a genial grin, Mr. Ingersoll turned to the court, saying: "Please, your honor, my client says that my metaphor is beautiful and true except that in so far as it represents him as finding anything valuable in the hole!" "Mortgage these wires'." he exclaimed, at another point. "Why, you might as well talk of mortgaging the track left by theiüghtof a Hock of geese through the air!" Too Much Talk. New Albany Ledger.l There is just a little too much talk in the newspapers about this and that manufacturing establishment shutting down if the Mills tariff bill becomes a law. The bill is imperfect in its present shape, needi amendment in several important particulars and will not te likely to pass without amendment. But these statements about closing doors if certain things are done BOUBd too much like threats. The American people do not take kindly to threats. This is shown by the results of the last election. Daring the canvass there were many such statements made as are being given out, that in the event of Cleveland's election the factories would close. Cleveland was elected and the factories did not close. It is like the old cry of wolf. When the wolf comes nobody will believe the cry. Tariff Dalnsion. Seymour Democrat. What do the farmers of the West and Northwest want of a tariff on corn, wheat, flour, corn meal, lard, beef, pork, hams, bacon and butter, when these are the very products they raise for export, and the export of which makes up half the commerce of New York? So far as the masa of agriculturists of the country care, these absurd duties might be abolished to-morrow. They were never put in the tariff except as a delusion and a pretence, for the purpose of making farmers believe that they are getting their share of the protective bounties under which Eastern manufacturers are growing rich, selfish and arrogant, A Doctor's Great Expectations.

Word comes from Boulder, on the Wiekes branch of the Northern Pacific, thirty miles from here, tbat Tascott, the murderer of millionaire Enell, was recognised there yesterday.
