Ha wu so familiar with corrupt and desperate pouucai mmmum taat ao was soon placed oa Campaign Committee and eventually became It Secretary. Doniag to term aa Secretary bo became familiar with the methods of rettiar and earryiag out tbe eontracta for carrying tbe Federal mail. He earned ia that boeinea and invented, tbe scheme for robbing the Treasury commonly celled 'the Star-route robber." By tbk uneans be accumulated a large fortune, part of which he basmveeted ia cattle ranches and silver liars la Now Mexico. When the rVeaideetlat eoateat of 1880 opened it was epeedihr discovered, through tbe Republican defeat la Maine eariy ia te ramner, taat tae rental list-shall Jewell, of Ooaaecticut. Chairman of the Republican Committee, was wanting in sonsethlng. and that their cause wsa lost unhnw the asoet deepcrate xaeaaures were resorted to. In this dire enntrgoucy the KepubUoaa leaders iaatinct ively turned to Dorsey, rave hiai the asaaagemcnt of the remainder of tbe campaign and bogged him to save tbe grand old party. Dorsev accepted tbe task and went at it with'eharacteriatie ardor and anscrupukmsaess. The keystone of tbe contest was Iadiaua. If he could wrest that froai the Democratic ranks tbe aVwuhlieaas night elect tbe President. Tbk bsjsucceeaed in scccssmtishiag. Hancock was defeated. GarfieM was elected. Every intelligent politician was aware that Indiana bad been carried for tbe KepubUoaa ia October of 1880 by tbe tbe lavish use of money. Indeed. VicePresident Elect Arthur, at tbe famous Delmoaico banquet ia Now York, ghea ia honor of Dorsev. openly and ahamelesslT lauded Dorsey for tbe exceedingly able manner ia which be carried Indiana by tbe use of "documents and soap." When Garfield was -elected be offered Dorsey tbe position of Secretary of tbe Interior, but Dorsey declined. He had a "better thing' in tbe postal route frauds. All he desired was to shape tbe Administration so that be would be allowed to steal with impunity. This it was agreed ohould be ! door. But to Dorsey's great disgust. I President Garfield attempted to take care of Doreev and at tbe same time play tbe part of a great reformer. He j put James and McYeagh into bis Cabinet. They happened to be honest and hence thev jprosecuted Dorsey, tbe savior of the Republican party, for tbe iStar-roate frauds. Garfield was shot bv a Reiiublk-an statesman Gui- j teau. James and MeVearh were put out nf the Cabinet of Preaideat Arthur to make tbe task of saving Dorsey easier. But there was the Star-route prosecution, like a white elephant, left on Arthur's hands. Arthur found himself in aa embarrassing position. He became seized with the desire of being elected President. He tried to carry -water oa both shoulders. He determined to be. a. reformer just a little m for a rent and he ordered the; prosecutions against Dorsey to proceed. Of Dorsey was to be aared ia tbe end. Tbe trials ended ia Dorsey 's acfuittal by the jury. Before the bar of public opinion, however, be was found ufltr. The trials cost him a greet deal f money, rue Mar-rowle stealing was j aexfken np.

This is for Garfield Is dead aad not answer for himself. But Dorsev oosdd aot leave Garfield out of his story' for the reason that he was tbe central ftgure around which the drama revolved.

Afirv Jforc JfegsJMr. mm The most amnaiag, if aot tbe Instructive, feature of tbe DorseyBarker revelation is tbe new light thrown upon two important political events: tbe nomination of Garfield at Chicago aad tbe Republican victory ia lntttana at the election ia tbe following October. The contemporary historians of ths great moral idea party have "spread themselves," so to speak, la describing the Providential circumstance" which led to tbe defeat of Grant and tbe selection of a candidate who had never been seriously thought of ia connection with Preaideatial honors, and who was as much surprised when they were thrust upon him by tbe Convention as was Clncinnatus when summoned front the plow te tbe dictatorship of imperiled Borne. Who can forget, or remember now without a burst of laughter, As accounts of Garfield's behavior on that immortal occasion P how he was " completely overwhelmed " when his name was mentioned: bow be raialy eadeavored to decline the coming event ia favor of John Sherman: how be "insisted that consent was impossible;'1 how "terribly confined" be was, aad how "the blusbe of modesty and embarrassment mantled his cheek" when tbe result of tbe final ballot was announced; and how be tried to escape from the ovation of congratulation which closed the pretty piece of business. The picture drawn by Republican pencils was so graceful and attractive to tbe unsophisticated popular mind, that the artist engaged in tbe preparation of the Garfield National monument m ight have incorporated it in the forthcoming marble or bronze, aad so transmitted to admiring posterity tbe edifying spectacle of a Presidential nominee who did not want to be nominated, had not the slightest expectation of being nominated; and would not have been nominated if he could possiblv have helped it Alas for "the troth of historvr Alas for the design of the artit! Uemorseleea )orsey and Baker have sat down upon both and flattened them out forever. The world now knows, beyond all reasonable doubt, the real facts in the case; knows that Garfield knew all about the plans of his friends for springing him upon the Convention; knows that he was consulted in regard to the matter, and g:r. his consent with the utmost Kromptne and pleasure; knows that e hail no more intention of nomtnatjug Sherman than of doing the same for tier.eral Jackon or Julius CVssr; know that all his confusion, surprise and modesty was only a neat bit of ,icting, and that he must have miled in his leeve at the srame ao icrefallv played. Thanks to Dorsey ami Barker unimpeachable Kcpablk-an witnee4 they are. too one more Republican historical humbug bits been exploded, aad vanishes out of i;ht leaving behind nothing save a had omell. A worse smell, h wever. is left by tbe second exploded humbug, the October election in Indiana. The Republican press declared at tbe time, and have been de lar.'ng ever since, that the Republican victorr was due to "a grand uprVtng of tbe people in behalf "a great work of political conversion." a moral tidal wave," a special rrovidence for tbe salvatinn of the Union and the result of the war. " Tbe world now kaowa that (iarfield's bargain aad ,uUe produced S,0MO0O for campaign purptHcn; that 4KQ0 ) went to Indiana " in crisp two-dollar bank note;" that this money was used in the most unscrupulous fashion, and that tbe result of the election no more represented the true sentiments of the people of Indiana than it did thoe of the people of Dahomey. No .uch scaadalon and ahamelem transaction as this is recorded ia our political annals, tbe Presidential conspiracy of 1876 always excepted; and both are fragrant Mowers in the bouquet of Kepnblicaa rascality and rottenness. We can not help pitying those honest Republican who voted for Garfield In 1880. believing him to be a champion Civil-serviee Reformer and as free from all complicity with tion as an wnborn babe. How their eyes and mouths must open ia utter amaaement as they read of his share ia the Indiana performance, sad how utterly disgusted they must be at their own innocent gullibility! For sweet charity's sake we will say nothing of the biographic which will have to be revised to meet the demands of the Dorsey-Barker documents; the funeral orations which must undergo the same process for the saute reason; the complete demolition of the Idol which Retmhl!can hands erected for the Republican multitude to adore. Knough to say that biographers, orator auf idoimakers have a bundant cause to curse Dorsey and Barker with the most ingenious and profuse profanity, aad that if the Star-route trials have done nothing eUw they have contributed largely to the stock of popular information upon certain sunjects nereioiore enveloped ia a thick cloud of ewsatloaal romanee aad impudent falsehood.

Blisters are emineatly efficacious m dispersing such callous swellings as arise from strains, bruises, aad other similar causes. They are of great service la redudns; the inflammation of parts remote from the surface. This iniammation of the internal parts of the loot may be reduced by blistering sbove the coronet; inflammation of the bowels, by blistering the abdomen, aad ialammatkw of the lungs, by blisteriag the sides. Blisters are aim the beet remedies for curbs, windgalls, spavins aad various other disorders. When properly made aad free from aay such oaustie ingredients as sulphuric acid aadeorroeive aubllmate they inflict no permanent damage on the skin, and do aot prevent the hair from growing; aad when they am not snoreasfui in the first application they can, with all safety, be repeated. But a blister ought never to be applied to a part which is Irritated or tender, for it might then produce extensive and virulent sbughing; nor ought it ever to be applied where there is a tendency to grease or scratches, for it would be likely to aggrarate such disorders; and whenever It requires to be applied during winter, thorough care ought to be used to protect the animal from cold or from a current of air about tbe legs. When a blister is to be applied, the part should previously be cleared as much as possible from hair, a quantity of the blistering ointment should be well rubbed into it. and a thin coat of tbe ointment afterward spread over the whole surface. A horse, on beffinaiusr to feel ftie action of the blister, is very apt to bite the part, and, in consequence, both to do serious mischief to the part and to Winter his month. To prevent this, he ought to either be tied short or to hare what is called a cradle placed about his neck, durinsr six to eight hours after tbe application of the : uii ! L . LIS.. t . 1 mivrr, t n vii uir niwier i applied 10 any of the legs, tbe bedding should be removed during the same number of hours, and if the hinder limbs are to be blistered, the tail nbould be tied up during the first day. The most active ingredients in the great majority of suitable blisters U pulverised Spanish il ;;. One common blistering ointment for horej N comMMed of half an ounce, of iowdt:red Spanish tile, an ounce of oil of tur)entite. and four ounces of bog lard: another is composed of hb snd a half or two ounoM of Spanish Hie, half, an ounce of oil of origanum, one ounce of oil of turpentine, two ounces of bogs' lard, ana four ounces of common tar. Corrosive sublimate has frequently been recommended as aa ingredient of blister; yet, except when very severe blistering, aa in a eaee of bone spavin, or ring-bone, is required, it ought in every instance to be omitted, for it is very apt to ulcerate the skin, aad leave a permanent mark or blemish. Good mustard, made into a paste with hot water, and applied hot, often blisters as well as ointment of Spanish flies, and ought to be used instead of the latter, when a large surface is to be blistered, such as tbe sides, the abdomen, or the loins. Some of tbe preparations of iodine aad mercury also make active blisters, aad are sometimes used mixed with ointment of Spanish flies. jfVofrtc Fmrmer. Uke the Tattey ef Bsaia.

" Oh. tell her Til be at tbe door by tbe time she gets her things on. Be sure you have the butter and eggs, all ready to put into tbe wagon. We're makta' too late a start to town." Butter and eggs, indeed! As If Lindy seeded a reminder other than the new drees for which they were to be exchanged. " Elmer and I can go to town next time, can't we. ma?" she asked, entering the bouse. " Yes, Lindy; 1 hope so,' was the reply. "But don't bother me now; your pa is earning already, and I haven't my shawl oa yet. Yea. Wilbur. I'm here. Just put this butter ia. Lindy; Til carry tbe eggs in my lap.

Elmer went to deep, and Lindy, feeling rather lonelv arain, went nelv airain went out-of-doors for a change. It wa a warm autumnal da-, almost tbe prrf.ct eounterfiart of a dosen or more, which hail preceded it. Tbe sun shone, brightly, and the hot' winds that swept through the tall grass made that and all elfc it touched so dry that the prairie seemed like a vast tinder-lov. Though her parents had but lately moved to thb pl.ue. Lindy was ac-ustniel to the. prairies. She had been born on them. ami her eyes were familiar with nothing j vtmts; jt:, inw nnm 10-uaj wun mat brown, unbroken expanse roiling awav b( fore her until it reached tbe pale bluiab-gray of theskr, tbe imlescribable feeling of awe and terrible atditude which such a scene often Inspires In one not familiar with it stole gradnally over W. But Lindy was far too practical to remain roug under such an influence. The chickens were " peeping " loudhr, and she remembered that they were still without their dinner. As she passed amend the corner of the bouse with a dish of earn la her hands, tbe wind almost lifted her from the trrbnad. It was otrtaialv' blowing with greater violence than during tbe morning. Great tumble-weeds went flying bv, turning over aad over with almost hV tilng-like rapidity; thea, pausing for aa instant's rest, were caught by another gust aad carried along, mile after mile, till some fence or other obstacle was reached, where they could pile up in great drifts, and wait till a brisk wind from an opposite direction should s ihI them rolling and tumbling all the way back. But Lindy did not notice the tumble-weeds. The dish of corn had fallen from her bands, aad she stood looking straight ahead with wMe-opcn. terrified eyes. What was the sight that so frightened her? Only a line of Bin below the horiaon. Only a line of tire, with forked names darting high late the air aad a cloud of smoke drifting away from them. A beautiful relief, this bright, chaaghsg spectacle, front the brown monotony of the prairie. But the scene was without beauty for Lindy. Bar heart had gi ven one great hound when she first aw the red line, awl then it seemed to oease beating. She hail seen many prairie fires; had seen her father and other men fight them, and she knew at once the danger her home was in. What could she, a little girl, do to save It, and perhaps herself and her Uttie brother, from the destroyer which the south wind was brinjring straight toward them? Only for a moment Lindy stood, white and motionless; then with a bound he wa at the well. Her core wa de cided npon. If only time and strength were given her! Drawing- two palls of water, she laid a large basr In eaun, and then, getting some matches, hurried out beyond the stable. She must fight fire with fire. That was her only hope; but a strong, experienced man would have shrunk from starting a back-fire In such a wind. She fully realised the danger, but it was possible est; ape from otherwise inevitable rksstrudiou. ami she heenated not an instant to attempt It. Cautiously starting a blase, she stood with a wet bag ready to smother the first unruly flame. Tbe great fire to the southward was ransdlr aaUTeedttenr, Prairie

If she hurried tea much, she would lose control of the tire she had started, aad with H all hops of safety. The heat was intense, th- etaoke suffocating, the rapid sw.o; jg of the heavy bag moat exhauatlng, but she was uaconscJous of these things. Ths extremity of the danger inspired net with wonderful sUength and endurance. Instead of losing courage, she increased her almost superhuman exertions, and in another brief interval ths task was completed. None too enue either, for the swiftly advaaclag column had nearly reached tbe wavering, struggling, slow-moving line Lindy had aeat out to meet it. It was a wild, fascinating, half terrible, half beautiful scene. The tongue of flame, leaping above each other with airy, faataatte grace, seemed, eat-like, to toy with their rictims before devouring them. A sudden, violent gust of wind, aad then with a great crackling roar the two fires met. the fiantes shooting high into the air as they rnsbnd together. For one brief, glorious nuHtirut thev remained there, lapping tba air with their fierce, hot touirues: then, sudden ly dropping, they died quickly out; and where an instant be 'ore had been a wall of fire was nothing now but cloud of bine smoke rising from the blackened ground, and here aad there a sickly flame finishing an obstinate tuft of grass. The fire, on each side, meeting no obstacle, swept quickly by, and Lindy stood raxinir. MM-ll-bouiiu. after it as it darted and flashed in terrible zigzag lines farther and farther away. Oh.

What strange houses they can build! They make a sort of cabin of branches of trees aad mud. The mud aaewer nicely for mortar. They have large, strong teeth. When they are cutting the branches for use they gnaw them on with their teeth. They make the stkks just as nearly the same length as they can. They dig up the mud with their paws, for they are Kntt diggers. When they are ready to ild their cabin, they use their fiat tails just as mason ne a trowel. With ft they spat aadsnsootk the coat of must as thev put it oa. The1 beaver's tall to very short, aad well adapted to this purpose. As the wall of the cabin rises higher, it to hard for the builder to reach the top. What do you think he does? Why. he props himself up on it and goes on with hto work. The beavers always select a place for, building close to a stream of water.! To get to the entrance, they must go down under the water. In order to keep the water over the doors Just high enough, they make a perfect dam. This dam to also built of branches and mod. For fear the branches might move aad get out of place, they fix stones upon them, sotnetimes of large size, to keep them down. l)o you see how they can understand all this? If they did not have a dam. the door of the cabin might be closed up with ice if the water got tew in the Stream in winter. In thii cabin there are two Httle rooms. TheY artt shaped like an oven. The beavers live tot the upper in the lower they store away their food. They eat the root and branches of different vegetables In the winter. They! often lay up food In very large ouantiThto wonderful little animal to about three feet long. His tail to ekvent Inches long. He uses it as a rudder in swimming, as welt as a trowel.
