A New TRIBE.-During recent trip
westward it became the painful duty of the
writer to occupy an old fashioned stage
coach. in order to get from one of the
country towns in the beautiful Cedar Val
ley to the ID. 4 S. G. II. r. In the same
stage was lady of prepossessing appear
ance, social disposition. fine conversational
abilities, and rery superiority cducated.-
She was at home in mathematics. the high
er the better botany was but child play
to her; chemistry only an amusement for
a leisure hour drawing. painting and mu-
sic were minor accomplishments but if
there was anything in which she was
more thoroughly versed than anything
else, it was history. She aired her erudi-
ton till oil tho resi og who constituted tho
stage load grew dumb with conscious infe-
riority. At last her tongue ceased it's wag-
ging, and 6 silence, like a poultice, fell, to
heal the blows of sound" sa"
By and by conversation began anew. A
remark on our part concerning the large
number of New Workers to he found in
Dubuque, drew from a Minnesota gentle
man, on the opposite seat, the remark that
the county in which he lived was settled
largely by New Englanders, among whom
were many Maine-ites.,'
The word awoke the erudite lady's un-
ruly member, and she, Il, great suavity
and very evident appreciation Of her own
magnificent condescension in acknowledge
ing that there was one thing in the world
that she did not know, lispngly inquired
of the Minnesota gentleman, whether the
" Maine-tes' were now at pc &c nith the
Whitcs?
There were some hard battles fought du-
ring the war, but none were more closely
contested than that hetwecnA the sense OF
politsnss aad the sense of ludicrous. among

Detroit.-The history of this city is in
some respects like that of Pr. du Chen !:
in 1870 it was occupied by the French as
a military post; they found there tribes Of
Indians, who had their villages at and
near this point. In 1850 the British took
it and held it until the Revolution. In
1912 Gen. Hull surrendered it to Great
Britain, by which he lost his command.
In 1913 Gen. Hanson drove the British
out, and during this year Gen. Lewis Cass
was appointed Governor of the Territory
and moved to Detroit, which was his home
the remainder of his days. A portion of
the present city was once his farm. BY
this he has left his heirs each handsome
fortune. Since the Generals death the
old homestead-an ordinary 2-story wood
en- structure--has been fixed up and paint
ed. Every pleasant afternoon, upon the
avenues, with gilded livery, may be seen
Gen. 10. Hooker, who succeeded Burnside
in the army of the Potomac and was sue
ceeded by Meade after days fight and
failure at Fredericksburg with 100000
men. He has command of Michigan, ILL.,.
and Wisconsin. / have fondness for
this old city at the straits. Twas here, in
the autumn of 1852, the writer found his
mate. .
