but twisted they certainly were, and some
how both of them passed the censors.-
When Mitraille opened his, he straightway
imagined that something had gone to smash
in Washington, and that had taken neat
way of giving him a hint, and rushed out
and bought all the gold his credit would
cover.
HE wrote me an account of his transac-
tons whose magnitude almost turned my
hair gray: and while he thanked me TOR
my hint he begged me to be sure that my
information was correct. [ thought at first
that he was crazy, and then became pref
ty near crazy myself, thinking Of what
might be the consequences of the mistake.
The first thing | did-this was the next day
you know-was to rush into Riggs and ask
| the latest gold prices.
Guess my delight when I found them
fairly jumping upward. 1t was wonderful !
Still, l was terribly nervous, for all sorts of
rumors, were ahoat; and | knew that gold
could fall as quick as it could rise. The
feeling grew on me until. pretty nearly
half demented, went into the tele-

swell, the old gentleman took that as he
bad the other one, and not only sold out,

1t was the luckiest thing in the world, for
sure enough, within forty eight hours things
did go down with crash. l began to feel
superstitious: there was something uncan-
ny about it, and [ packed my kit and made
fast for New York. [ did not attempt an
explanation, but steadily resisted all the
old gentleman entreaties to 90 on with it
any further. | even managed to persuade
him to close up his gold account and quit
it. | had Lucille to help me in that.

l tell you, and there was very little trouble
about making the other arrangements after
my bank account was made up. My hon
ored father-in law had the blinde5t faith in
my Judgment; but told Lucille all about
it. What's more, I don't and won't spec
ulate, and l won't do business for any
firm that does. It's all clear case OF
luck"

A Sad Affair.

It will be recolIected that we last week
published an account of the destruction of
the steamer Wisconsin on lake Ontario re-
Gently. A Watertown IN. Y. paper gives
the following as connected with the sad
disaster:
Among the passengers on the steamer
Wisconsin, burned near Cape Vincent, was
a Mr.. Chisholm, from Canada, on his way
to Missouri, in company with his wife and
six children. He was man about fifty five
years old, had bought farm in the State
to which he was travelling, and was moving
with his family and goods. When the fire
broke out, he was sitting on deck, but his
wife and children had retired for the night.
He called them up hurriedly and sought to
save their lives in most unfortunate way.
One of the small boats was let down to
about foot of the water, and about twenty
passengers leaped into it, and Mr.. CHS
holm assisted his wife three daughters and
a sou to get in. One of the frightened
crowd cut with knife the rope which con-
nected the bow Of the small boat with the
davit and the loosened end dropped down
like spoon, and al once filled with water.
The passengers were thrown out and
nearly all drowned. This happened not
more than a minute and half before the
steamer struck the shore on Grenadier
Island, and had all remained on board as
the captain ordered, not life would have
been lost. Mrs. Chisholm, the three
daughters, aged respectively twenty, seven
teen and fifteen, and the boy of eleven years
were all drowned. The father and the two
elder sons, who stuck to the steamer, were
all saved Mr. Chisholm had $4,000 in
greenbacks, his only fortune, which was in
his wife's satchel, and was destroyed by the
flames. Thus he was left in strange land,
a widower, bereft of four children, without
money or property, with his great grief
resting on his soul, to commence the world
anew. The bodies Of his wife and children
were recovered, and have been inferred in
the graveyard at Cape Vincent and the sad,
heart-broken husband and father, with his
two remaining sons, will go on to his home
less home in the west. Few life dreams
have sadder chapters than this.

MEMORY'S TEAR.

He sang that same old melody
My father used to sing,
When l, at eve, rocked on his knee
In childhood's merry spring
All was light and gleeful, then,
And knew no care or fear
That song brought childhood back again,
And called up mem'ry's tear.
Then, mother, sitting by his side,
Kept time, with needles bright;
And joined her soft, sweet voice to his
| see her there, tonight
Each face, each form, each hallowed spot,
Is to my heart still dear,
And seems to say, forget me not y
And calls up mem'ry's tear.
/ would not be a child again,
Oh no oh no; not ]
And yet love to think it DER,
And live the days gone by
The no0 is beautiful and bright,
And full of love and cheer;
But let me for the past tonight,
Drop mem'ry's sacred tear.
Then sing again that song for me
Touch mem'ry's sounding string,
Each note calls back some long lost hour !;
Some sweet affection brings3
Then sing for me the melody
My mother loved to hear
My heart throbs high with faith and hope,
My eye drops mem'ry's tear.

pulsive; had the faculty of winning the con-
tldence OF those under him, but was relent-
less with his enemies. As soldier, he has
shown some military ability, and not few
think that in any other country he would
have risen to high rank and won laurels in
his profession.
GEN. THOMAS MEJIA. ~
This distinguished General is of pure In
dian blood and claims descent from the
Aztec Emperor of Mexico. He is very
proud OF his ancestry, and owes his great
personal influence and popularity among the
pure Indians to this fact He has always
sided with the conservative party of Next
co. and his weight both 10 military and po
litical point of view, has been considerable.
Born and brought up in the mountains of
the interior. he was at all times able to
throw into the balance strong, hardy and
active active corps of fighting ,mep1' who I%? were
ucated officers and the most improved arms
the cavalry Of Gen. Mejia, would certainly
prove invincible in their native fastness,
most formidable in. the world.
Gen. Mejia, like most of his race, is fond
of pageant and show; although in his pri-
'o'o ioiO uO A"iOO sCIy pioluIy3 ouN O'Sh az
times meanly. He is very devoutly attach
ed to his religion; is of very pleasing ad
dress to friends and strangers, though gen.
orally very taciturn. In the company of
old or we'll known friends his conversation is
easy, vivacious and full of interest. His
life, as learned from his own lips, would
probably make the most romantic, thrilling
and interesting narrative connected with the
history of Mexico
GEN. SEVERE CASTILLO
has not figured so prom inently as either of
the others, until quite recently When
Macmillan determined to make stand
at Queretaro, he gave the organization and
command Of division to Castillo, who had
shown some ability in his campaign against
the Indians and Liberals of Yucatan and
Tehuantepec. When Gen. Miramon made
his raid on Zacatccas, in the latter part of
last January, and was forced by Escobedo
to fall back, the timely presence of Gen.
Castillo on the road saved Miramon from
complete rout.

Sailing Under False Colors,

LIZ days OF ya.e, when Republicanism, OF
Democracy, wssaaveught over to these shores
from its birth place in Europe, the party
ahat now abregstes to itself the title of Re-
publican, bat which was then known as the
Federal party, fell back on its dignity and
dressed ia bvoadeioth and gloves, refused to
recognize the bautEng as entitled even to
decent consideration. With what holy
horror did they loo.l. upon the doctrine of
impartial suffrage Gor sesite men, how they
scowled at the idea that the common people
should have voice In public affairs. In
their view, every one who embraced the new
doctrine was loafer, an atheist, revolu-
zionist and Gt only for association with swine
As time rolled on, however, and after re-
ceiving many hard knocks, the principles of
Republicanism was INDICATED. DiSowned
by the people, but ever ready for expedi-
ents, the Federal wings adopted as one of
their cardinal points the doctrine of anti
slavery, and with this they rode into power.
No sooner are they in condition to carry
out their aristocratic notions, than we find
the old spirit of moderation rampant once
more. In Radical Massachusetts,, it is un-
lawful to drink what you please, you must
be governed by laws fit only for the govern
ment Of children-laws which they propose
t. extend if possible over the entire country
laws which are counterpart and relic of
old Connecticut blue laws. 1t is
said to be impossible for the leopard to
change his spots, and it seems to be true
ism also in regard to the old Federal party,
which has in the intolerant and poke-y our
nose into everybody s-business Radical Re-
publican party of Massachusetts, an offspring
which can trace it's lineal descent without
Haw.
Comon honesty would dictate that the So
called Republican party should drop name
which its members once held in such con-
tempt. and take upon itself the one which
not only properly belongs to it, but which is
also the more applicable.

the doctor caught hold of bush and held
to it with such tenacious grasp that the
saddle girth was broken and his own life
saved. ~
A little boy in an Illinois country town
was recently killed under somewhat odd

putting the handle of i pitehfork through

handle, and drove the tines Of the fork
violently against the boys head, and one OF
the tines entered the boys eye and pene-
trated the brain.

" The Sword is Mightier than the Pen,
with Radicals.

The radicals propose to establish a sys-
tenn of military scholarships in the various
institutions of learning throughout the
country-that the four or FIVE highest annual
graduates In said institutions shall be
awarded military Offices, as is now awarded
to similar graduates at West Point
The complaint is that this latter institution
cannot furnish sufficient of military skill
to command the armies of the country
Surely, if anything the country suffered
from surfeit of military commanders in
the late war-there was no lack of men,
the skill only was lacking, something which
they have not found to this day But is
not the remedy worse than the evil? IF
there was any one thing more than another
that caused the South to appeal to arms in
stead Of the ballot box for redress of her
grievances real or imaginary, it was the es
Enlistment of several military institutions
within her borders-the graduates of which
were anxious to show their skill and cour-
age on the tented feld," and who were
taught ard seriously believed that each one
individually was a match for whole COM
pany of oppcsers Human nature is pretty
much the same the world over when it gets
full swing, and if We are to be guided by the
military laws of Europe instead of the good
old Democratic doctrines, five are to foster
and encourage military instead of a prac
tical education, it will not be many years
until we will have in our midst surplus of
military poppinjays imbued with about the
same quotient of military ardor and the
same lack of sense aan the same contempt for
the ballot box as characterized their Don
Quixote brethren of the South
No, there is no poverty of military COM
manders-we have already five too many.
Quality not quantity is what is needed, and
this ingredient is not to be obtained by
halfmili.ary education, as is instanced by
the lamentable failure of all those Generals,
in the late war, who were not thoroughly
educated in their profession.
A portion of the Radical party seems to
be insane on the military subject. They
have appointed military commanders in one
part of the country to rule against the pen,
and now they propose measures that if
adopted will eventually end in the whole
country being governed by military satraps
a Ia Europe. The old Federal-whig aris-
toracy s;if leavens the so-called Republican

DECREASE IN THE REVENUE. The New
York Herald Of June 2, publishes a COM
parative exhibit of revenue returns Of taxes
on manufactures and products for the years
1866 and 1867. The returns are from nearly
all the districts in Massachusetts,, Lonnec-
ticut, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and
Maryland. They embrace the two months
of the present year during which the new
tax has been in operation. Comparing
March and April, 1867, with the cores
ponding months of 1866, the falling off is
over forty per cent. The income returns
show decline of over forty per cent, but
averaging forty per cent. as the decrease all
round, the income from internal revenue
will be $l24, 3G2, 1893 less than in 1866.
