MARK TWAIN ON BEN FRANKLIN
What an adroit fold adventurer the SUBJ
ject of this memoir! Iu order to get d
chance to fly his kite on Sunday, he used
to hang his key on the string and let on
to be fishing for lightning.
He invented stove that would smoke
your head off in four hours, by the clock.
One can see the almost devilish satisfac.
ton he took in it by giving it his name.
He was always proud of telling how he
entered Philadelphia for the first time,
with nothing in the world but two shil-
lings in his pocket and four rolls of bread
under his arm. But really, when you
come to examine it critically, it was moth
ing. Anybody could have done it. Frank
lin said in one of bis inspired flights of
malignity:
"Early to bed and early to rise
Makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise"
As il it were any object to boy to be
healthy, wealthy and wise on any such
terms. The sorrow that maxim has cost
me through my parents experimenting on
me with it, tongue cannot tell. The legi-
innate result is my present state of gem
eral debility, Indulgence and mental aber-
ration. My parents psed to have me up
before nine o'clock in the morning some
times, when I was boy. If they had
let me take my natural rest, where would
I have been now? Keeping store, NO
doubt, and respected by all.

arrangement Grant wa, to proceed to

federate States Government at once ADAM
don further resistance and surrender its
armies. Lee was to return to Richmond

sion to Washington. On receiving which

The assassination of Presidsn. Lincoln.
however, deferred the consummation of
Grants purpose in visiting Washington,
aud the subsequent surrender Of John

collapse Of the rebellion in its organized
character, rendered the further prosecution
