THE RICHEST MAN IN HJ1NE, But Nobody Would Suspcet It to Moot Him as He Travels on UU Own Steamboats' Passengers on the Maine line steamers freqnen Ij notice in the pilot house ft tall, slender man, with a long gray beanl and the general aspect of a retired steamlxat captain or something of that sort. He seems to take a casual interest in the navigation of the vessel, and is evidently on familiar footing with the officers of the boat. Occasionally he may invite some curious passenger into the "wheel-house to see the compass or to peep through the glasses. With such he -will chat entertainingly about ships, the ocean, the -weather, or any other ordinary subject. Incidentally it mil probably come out that he is President of the" line, and he may mention tha ; he is also in the oil-cloth business in New York, though his home is in Maine. He is full of thoughtful suggestions about the best way to avoid seasickness, the best staterooms to try to get for the return trip, and as to other matters relating to the comfort of the trip. The passenger who has been fortunate enough to fall in with him concludes that the Maine line has a most accommodating gentleman for its President, and thinks it would be a good thing fc r the line if it would hire its President to sail on every trip and make things pleasant for the patrons. "Going to stop over in Portland and come back with us neit trip, are you ?

he said to a couple of voyagers recently. "Well, now, don't you stay in Portland ; go over to Cushing's Island, to the hotel there, the Ottawa; it's the only one there is, and yon can't miss it. Itll only take half an hour or so to go there, and yon can spend one night and two days there a good deal more comfortably than you can in Portland. Just mention at the hotel that I told yon to come Mr. Bailey, President of the steamship line; it won't do yon any harm." These two passengers were more than ever impressed with the geniality of the Maine line's President, and they took his advice. They had the best room at the hotel, and received other attention that made them curious as to where Mr. Bailey got the "pull that he evidently had with the hotel proprietor. They asked some one who this Mr. Bailey was "Bailey? Oh, President of the steamship lino ? Why, that's Charles S. Bailey. He's the richest man in Maine. Wor;h ten or fifteen millions, and made it all himself. He was about the first oil-doth manufacturer in the country, and is the biggest one yet. He most owns, the steamship line and a lot of other things. Close as a chestnut burr, too, about business, but does an almighty lot of good with his money on the quiet. He don't go much on churches, but he has a fancy for helping young men studying for the ministry, or young preachers. Hell put up all the money they need right along until they get to mixing in politics or temperance. Then he shuts down on 'em right off. Says a minister's business is to do good to humanity, not to talk politics or prohibition. Hell do most anything for ft man he takes a fancy to. I knew a young man went to him once and asked him for $5,000. He got it, and was going to give a note lor it. ' Never mind that he said ; ' if jou"re honest youTX pay me without it, and if you're lishonest you won't pay me anyhow; your word is all I want. That's the kin I of a man he is, though You'd never suspect it if you had any business dealings with him. You don't mean to say you were talking to him and didn't know who he was ? Beckon you don't know much about Maine i there ain't maay pies down Eastways that he ain't got a finger in. Tbe two travelers made up their minds that thi j had reversed the usual form and had seen entertained by an angel unaware. Baffialoes on the Cars. The buffalo had a strong aversion to leaving their eld homestead; and considerable difficulty was experienced ia getting them aboard the cms, two days being spent in the effort. Half a dozen expert horsemen, besides a number of cattle-drivers who had loaded hundreds of wild Western cattle, found they had a more difficult task before them when endeavoring to load buffaloes. However, by a strategic movement, they were eventually got into the pens of the cattle yards. How to get them to walk the gangway was a still more sorious matter. The infuriated and maddened beasts, when they found themselves caged, commenced to have a little circus on their own account. Some terrible combats took place between them, and, when the enormous size and strength of these animals is considered, one can conjecture how high one of the younger ones would be thrown in the air when caught on the horns of one of these mighty l ulls. Every conceivable effort was made in endeavoring to get them on the cars, but to no puqtose; prods with sharppointed forks, lashes that would almost cut a sheep in two, seemed to be appreciated as a tickle in the ribs or a aoft and gentle caress. Eventually, a tremendous old bull undertook to be -ster of ceremonies, and succeeded, after every effort of man had failed. There was nothing new in the manner in which he did it; he only did what buffaloes have done from time immemorial, when working up a stamped. He got behind the herd and begsn making it lively for those ahead, prodding, bellowing at them, and driving the laggards for ward with vigorous digs of his horns in their haunches. They had to travel, i nd having no other place to go, they passed over the gangway and into the cars. When the "big pusher," as the crowd dubbed him, had driven them all in and reached the door himself, he seemed to be quite astonished! This was the most extraordinary stampede he had ever engineered. Tossing his head i cornfully, he wheeled about and ran back into the den ; he next accomplished the feat of jumping ft ten-foot fence, and seeming to like it, bounded from one pen to mother, clearing or smashing everything in his

way, until he rt ached the board fence

which bounded the west side of the yards. The paling is about fourteen feet high, but he jumped at it, struck near the top, went through with a crash, and steered for home, a much agitated bull. Uucle Sam's Great Seal. It may not be generally known that we have a "keeper of the" great seal" of the United States, but it is a fact. He does not bear that title: in truth, he bears no title, being simply a clerk in the State Department, but for forty years he has had sole charge of the great seal of the United States, and the Secretary of State himself cannot induce that faithful old clerk to unlock the doors which guard that emblem of the country's liberties, without a formal warrant signed by the President of the United States. Thft present seal of the United States was made after the design of Mr. Dwight, formerly Librarian of the State Department, and it is the fourth of the series. It depicts the American eagle, holding in each claw a sheaf of thirteen arrows, and surmounted by a circular wreath inclosing thirteen stars, corresponding to the original States, and encircled by the motto "E Pluribus Unurn." It is mounted upon a massive block, and is so admirably constructed mechanically that the slightest turn of the screw will develop all the pressure required. The cost was over one thousand dollars. The original seal of the United States is still preserved in the department. It is inartistic in design, and crude and clumsy in operation. It was superseded by a second seal, more nearly approaching that now in use, but smaller in size. This, as it wore out, gave way to a third, which was used for a number of years before the fact was discovered that the eagle, by inadverter.ee, had been given only seven arrows in its claws, instead of thirteen. This defect has been remedied in the present seal. The uses to which the great seal is put are various. It goes upon all commissions, pardons, and other official documents issued by the President; but a law passed in 1789 says it shall not be affixed to any instrument except a commission "without the special warrant of the President therefor." When an autograph communication is sent by the President to one of his "great and good friends" of the royal monarchs of Europe, the envelope which bears the august missive is always stamped with the impress of the great seal. Numerous applications for an impress of the seal are received, but to all such applications a formal reply is made that the law forbids it. A Miser's Board A Parisian miser had for many years lived in a ghostly looking house, inhabited solely by himself and the rats, mice, black beetles, and spiders, which made it their home. No one save the Miser Dubosque was ever seen to enter this mysterious mansion. When the Franco-Prussian war broke out, however, and misrule held high revel everywhere, it is natural to suppose that a place with so tempting a reputation would be the first to be invaded. Indeed this was done by the Mobiles quartered in the neighborhood, who are said to have discovered Dubosque dead from sheer fright in one of the passages of the house. Suspicion pointed to the probability of his having met with, foul play. Search was, at all events, forthwith made for the old fellow's hoard, when, to the astonishment of every one as he was known not to have banked his money not a solitary sou was to be found anywhere. Even to the very cellars the place was empty, save for the truckle bedstead on which the old skinflint slept. It was even without the commonest necessaries. One day, however, one of the soldiers, for some purpose, was hammering a huge staple into one of the walls of the vaults, when, to his surprise, a quantity of liquid spurted out upon him and startled him not a little. He was still more horrified, on emerging into the light, to see its sanguinary hue. Had a man, then, not quite dead, though embedded behind those bricks, received his coup de grace from the Mobile's hammer? Suffice it to cay it turned out to be Dothing more nor less than a bricked-up wine collar of enormous extent. . It was in this form that Dubosque had hoarded his wealth, feeling, with much wisdom, that every year added immensely to its value ; though it was not long, as one can imagine at such a crisis, before the fine old fruity savings of a lifetime were scattered, and inebriated soldiers were drinking deep draughts of the rosy to the repose of the soul of Dubosque, the miser. Why the Widow Was Crushed. Speaking of widows marrying made me think of an incident that happened near where I lived way back in the fifties. I lived next door to Dick Tolbot. He had five little brats, Dick went off hunting one day and shot his leg. It was mighty bad wea'mer, and at last the doctors had to cut off his leg to save his life. He lingered along for several months and then died at last. I was there the night he died. His wife took on mighty bad. Some of the neighbors went to her to console her, but it did no good. At last I went to the seemingly heart-broken wife and told her that poor Dickwas gone, e nd told her it did no good to "tale on so. "I can't help it," said she, and continuing, pointing toward her children, said: "Just think that these poor children will have to come under

a stepfather. It is more than I can

bear," Chattanooga Times. Mamma Why did you tell me a lie, Johnnie? Johnnie Because, mamma, yoUfcdidn't give me time to think up a truth that would fit.

Home-Made Soap. I have found a way in which I can make soap while waiting for the teakettle to boil for supper, says a writer in Good Housekeeping, It very easy. Get of a druggist or grocer a pound box of the pulverized lye now sold so cheaply and in such convenient shape. It will cost you 15 cents. It xmes in a neat can, which can bo opened with any penknife. Dissolve this lyo in three pints of cold water. The lye heats the water, and you must wait till this heat passes off before making your soap. Melt your grease and strain through a cheese-cloth and weigh 5i pounds. As soon ns this melted grease is cool enough to bear your hand in, pour grease and lye together and stir thoroughly a few minutes, and you will see it thicken. Now pour it into a box or dripping pan, lined with greased paper, and let it stand in a warm place for 2i hours, then cut into bars. It will be ready for immediate use, will keep growing better, is clean and thoroughly satisfactory for dish washing and the laundry, makes a good suds and is economical, having cost you only 15 cents, the price of your lye, as the grease was saved at odd times. It can be made without fire, as you see it does not have to be boiled or even have boiling water added, Our laundress uses it and says "It is good," and she is apt to be critical. To Those Interested. Hastings, JWJch.. April 22, 1839. Rheumatic Syrup Co.. Jackson, Mich; Gents This is to certify that I had been troubled with rheumatism in all its forms for the past twelve years, and was conliued to my be 1 at various periods from three to six months at a iim- and I could jret about only by the aid of orutciies. I employed several first-class physicians of tbis city, ron of whom effected a cure or gave temporary relief even. About two years ago I was induced to try HibbarcTs llheumatic Syrup, and, after taking a few bottles I experienced relief, and sow consider myself cured. I unhesitatingly recommend this medicine for rheumatism. I know what it has done for me, what physicians could not do, L e., cured me of rheumatism. Mas. II J. Kenfield. Ask your drusglst for it.

Lost Ills Hand and Didn't Know It Early Wednesday morning Officer "Wells, of Lynn, discovered a man coming down the Boston and Maine Kailroad from the direction of West Lvnn. The man appeared very jolly and entirely oblivions of the fact that he had but a bleeding stump of his right arm, his hand having been severed above the wrist. The man was leaving a trail of blood to mark his course. On investigation it appeared that the man had lain down to sleep with his right arm across the track, and when at daylight a freight train was backed down its wheels cut his hand off as clean as though with a knife. The man's nerves in the arm were perfectly numb, anl he did not realize what had happened to him until his attention was called to it. He had been drinking, but did not appear to be drunk. He gave his name as William Cable, of Hartford, Conn. Chistopher Gaffney saw Cable coming through the freight yard singing. His hand was

gone then. Cable is 2A years old.

Boston Journal. t , Very Risky Indeed. To tamper with symptoms indicative of growing kidney disorder ; to nogiect for a brief time needful stimulation of tbe renal organs when their inactivity points, as it always and unmistakably does, to their eventual permanent disease, is certainly very risky indeed. This is, however, a risk that many persons perceptibly drifting into Bright's disease, diabetes, catarrh of the bladder, etc., constantly incur. To those vrho read, reflect and heed tbe lessons of recorded experience, tbe advisability of using Hob tetter's Stomach Bitters as a diuretic needs scarcely more than a suggestion. No fact is more generally admitted by the medical profession and the public than its efficacy for the prevention of serious renal disease. The unmedicated excitants of commerce, no matter how pure, bear in mind, react prejudicially upon the kidneys when inactive". The Bitters subdue a malaria, constipation and rheumatism. A Case of Conscience. A case of conscience has lately come to our notiee which is so exceptional as to merit attention. A merchant in this city some time ago applied to the Governor for an appointment as a Justice of the Peace. His application was favorably acted upon, and he took the usual oath to obey all the laws of the Commonwealth. After taking the oath it occurred to Mm that there were some things he would have to give up if he obeyed his conscience. He enjoyed an occasional game of poker, for instance ; but lie must give this up or prove false to his oath. He was addicted to numerous other fashionable vices, which, though not particularly deep-dyed, are contrary to the law. Thinking it all over he concluded that he couldn't live up to his oath, and so he sent in his resignation. Boston Herald. The lioud to Wealth, "Mr. Jones !w said the old millionaire.

His Blasphemous Prayer Fulfilled Several days ago Patrick Gallagher felt in Lis coat pocket for his pipe. It was not there, and its absence caused him to make a terrible wish. His wife reproved him. "Well, I don't care," he said, "here with tbis uplifted hand to heaven I pray that my Creator will paralyze the man who has my pipe." Before his utterances had died away Gallagher felt a severe twitching of the heart, and complained of feeling unwell, A doctor was hastily dispatched for, and said he received a strole of paralysis. As Gallagher was in straitened circumstances it was deemed best to remove him for treatment to the Home for the Aged Poor, where death ensued iulesa than twelve hours. The grief-stricken family were at a loss to understand his sudden death. In looking yesterday, however, through his clothes removed at the time of the paralytic stroke, they were filled with superstitious horror, for in one of hirf outside pockets was found the missing pipe, which had worked its way into the lining.
