A Story Worth Repeating.


Judge Davis, of Illinois, is a rich man.
The public may not know how he became
wealthy. About thirty years ago, when
Judge Davis was practicing lawyer in the
West, he was employed by a Connecticut
man to collect $500, Davis went to the
place where the debtor lived and found him
to be rich in landed possessions, but with
out spare dollar in money. He finally
settled the bill by giving deed for tract
of land-a fat moist and undesirable
piece of land in appearance, lying close by
a sheet of water, and consisting perhaps of
sixty acres. Davis subsequently met his
Connecticut client in st. Louis, when the
latter (who seemed not to have the usual
Connecticut shrewdness) fell TO and gave
him a regular "blOwing up" for taking the
land rather than insisting on having the
$500 in cash. He did not want any of your
Western land, and he told Davis that hav-
ing received it in payment of the debt, he
had better keep it himself and pay the
money out of his own pocket. To this
Davis agreed. Stepping into a friends
Office he borrowed $500, took the Connect
cut mans receipt for the land, and held it
for rise. That land forms part of one of
the suburbs of Chicago Judge Davis has
sold two or three hundred thousand dollars
worth of it, and has nearly million dol
lars worth left. 1t is striking example OF
what the Western property has done for its
holder, and as the story has never been
printed we thought it would be interesting
enough to publish

NEW YORK, August 6.-General Grant
gave his promised reception on Pullman
island, st. Lawrence river, yesterday, and

sions by kissing the pretty girls and an Oc-
casional baby Grant not having done much
| in the oscular line since the news from
| North Carolina got into such muddle. In
| conversation with Herald reporter Grant
| expressed his personal Indifference in the
present campaign in these words: II was

simply because thought that was SAe best

portupity I 10 not grudge them, and | de-
pend upor the people to rebuke or to in
dorse p6, as they see fit. Ali those who
have seated me unfairly have now chance
to f5clare themselves"
Correspondent-Then | may say you do
nOt personally cOvet the position any
longer!
President-No, SIT; the mera fact of my
having occupied the position I-have already !
enjoyed was an honor to me, which l trust |
duly appreciated; but attacks were made |
upon me long before / had fulfilled my |
term, and before had ever thought of |
second term. / reluctantly consented to |
enter upon the secOndstruggle, and / would
not have done so at all If l did not feel q |
desire to know whether a majority of my
fellow-citizens were willing to aid my enc
mics in fastening SANDERS upon me. Be-
sides, l am anxious to ascertain whether
the Republican party, whose choice l again
happen to be, wish to have its policy sus-
tanned or not.
The daily kilograms of this correspondent
say 1--we are told the Grant politicians of
this State have laid such plans as will ef
detach 10000 or $4,000 Irish votes
from the Democratic party and transfer
them to Grant, thus imperiling the chances
of Horace Greeley carrying the Empire
State. The leading genius in this conspiracy
is Tom Murphy, assisted by DecOy Bliss,
William A. Darling, James O'Brien and
several prominent members of the late Tam
many ring, foremost of whom is Bill Tweed.
The indicted ring members are to have the
suits against them dropped by the Republi,
can Attorney General, and other favOrs be-
sides, in consideration of their services. At
the present moment this scheme is being
and the Murphy gang declare that
they will take such a slice off of the Irish
vote that Grant may count on a majority in
New York of from 10000 to 10000. The
and Grant himself, have great
faith in Tom Murphy's name, lineage,
brogue and general low cunning, but they
ignore the fact that every Irishman in New
York of the least intelligence sees as fully
through Murphy as they do themselves.

A,nnnr the Pine Trees.

Hundreds of people avail themselves
every Sunday morning of the accOmmoda-
ton afforded by the jackson railroad excur-
sion train which leaves Calliope street depot
twenty-five minutes before eight clock, and
gets passengers back into the city by ten
o'clock at night. The trip is exceedingly
pleasant, the road smoother than it ever
was before, the cars neat, convenient, new
and strong, the conductor accommodating
and the engineer sIullful. Fruit can be had
on the road freshly plucked from the trees
or vines, and at the hotels and private resi-
dsnces such courtesies are extended as to
make all welcome to the country.

LOOK OUT FOR THEM.

People of New Orleans who pay five
eighths of the State taxes, see to it. I'm
p0verished people Of the country parishes,
see to it. The holders of State bonds,
at home and abroad, see to it.
1t might be suggestively added see
to what See that the rotten hulks
of a past political power don't cum
Der the way: see that the voice of the
people, chained down by those who do
none of the voting and all of the gFowl-
ing, and who are in the first rank to get a
fat office, TO which their interest does not
entitle them, see to it that these public de-
moralizers have no chance at the bellows,
no finger in the pie again. The State IN
debtedness has not been increased one cent
BY Fl. G. Warmoth. On the contrary, vii
lainy in the Legislature, by which the debt
could be increased, was killed off by the
S25. 900 900 amendment, suggested by Gov
ernor Warmoth, who has destroyed by his
veto more Jobs than ever have passed. The
State debt is but $23, 0O0, 900, all told. See
to il. The State taxes are levied to pay the
interest of the bonded debt, and we say,
bully! We believe in paying debts-see to
it. The augmentation in the city debt has
been made BY the rose-watered Democrats
see to it. With the bad deeds OF past adj
ministratiOns numbering the records, and
for which the present administration has to
pay-echo answers, see to 1t.

Barbnrities at an Insane ASYLUM.

From the Chicago Tribune.I
NEW YORK, August 6.-Mr. Van Week,
banker, just released from BlOomingdaIe
Asylum, is rapidly and effectually stirring
up the gross villainy in the management Of
that institution by proceedings III court and
statements in the daily papers. A writ of
habeas corpus was issued Saturday direct
ing the experimenting physici of the
BlOOmlngdale Asylum to produce Mary Nc
Cabe in court. before Judge Barrett, at
half-past ten this morning. 1t is claimed
that Miss McCabe has never given any sign
of insanity. The Theory urged on her be-
half is that, being an inmate of a convent in
this city, she complained that one of the
officers of the convent had made proposals
to her which no YirtUOus person could
submit to, and to prevent her giving pub
Iicity to this scandal she was oonveved
by force to the asylum. 1t was in this in
stitution that Van Week was confined, until
very lately, when, after being discharged,
it was found that he had never been insane.
He was in court this morning with his cOun-
sci. He is in appearance a quiet man of
business, little past middle life, without
any evidence of that excitability associated
with insanity. The return made to the writ
was that Mary McCabe was no longer in
their charge, but in the New York Lunatic
Asylum. Mr.. Townsend said this was the
fifth case in which, after he had begun pro-
ceedings, the authorities Of the asy
lum had managed in some way to get rid of
the person detained. They had always
done so, except in one case, where a gentle
man insisted ON remaining until the matter
was brought before court. The proceed
ings OF that institution were infamous. Mp.
Townsend has obtained another writ for
the production Of Teresa Drew, also at the
BloOmingdale Asylum, although said to be
quite sane. 1t is said she will be spirited
to another asylum before the writ can
reach Bloomingdale. Mr.. Van Week says
he is determined to turn the asylum inside
out. He charges them with killing a pa
tient, named Tilton, with narcotics. Two
former employees Of BlOomingdale back
Van Weeks report, and one of Them lady,
makes an affidavit of the icentious prac-
tees carried on by the officers of the insti-
tuition.

reply to the secretary of the Illinois State
Central Committee, desiring him to fill
such appointments to speak in behalf of

reasons why Greeley should be elected.
