EccentI icity.

THE following singular instance of
eccentricity, illustrating the close connec-
ton of this condition of the mind with
insanity, is related by Professor Ham,
mond in his work on diseases Of the nerv-
GUS system.
A lady had since her childhood shown
siDgularity of conduct as regarded her
table furniture, which she would have of
no other material than copper. She
carried this fancy TO such an extent that
even the knives were made of copper.
People laughed at her. and tried TO reason
her out of her whim, but in vain. In no
other respect v as there any evidence of
mental alteration. She WAS intelligent,
by no means exciIable, and in the enjoy
ment of excellent health. An uncle had =,
however. died in ane- A trifiing circum-
stance started in her new train of
thought, and excited emotions which she
could not control. She read in the morn
ing paper that Mr.. Kopperman had ar
rived at one of the hotels, and she an
nounced her determination to call on him.
Her friends endeavored to dissuade her,
but without avail. She went to the h'tel
and was told that he had iu>t left for Chi
cago Without returning to her home,
she bought ticket for Chicago. and
actually started on the next train for that

her, and she was brought back from Ro-

fidence in him, probably on account of
his neglect to collect the New York Cen
tral scrip tax. Pleasanton took his walk
ing papers very hard, and has ever sitice
been hungry fer revenge.
But the letter itself is more remarkable
than its author. SchurZ made his speech
OH the 22d of July The Pleasanton let
ter, as published in the Tribune of this
morning, bears date of July 25, 1872 Was
it received at st Louis three days in ad-
vance of its existence We get a clue to
the explanation from the fact that Carl is
now in New York. We believe that no
such letter as he claimed to have had has
ever been written to him. Hethought he
could brass the charge through. The ex-
plicit denial by Presidential authority was
doubtless surprise to him. Compelled
by that denial to either stand convicted of
barefaced lying or to trump up some
show of proof, he FASTENED to New York.
Of course PleasantOn was very glad of
any chance, however trivial, to feed his
grudge against President Grant, and
Schurz had no difficulty in securing from
him the letter now published. 1t is
strange that they did not date the letter
back, at least few days but it is often
the case that rogues leave some bar down
by which they can be detected
1t is notable that Pleasanton's letter
does not assert point blank that the Pres
ident said Schura could have ''patron-
age" to his hearts content if he would
support the treaty. He only says, THAT
was the distinct impression the Presi-
dents conversation made upon my mind"
No court of justice would accept any
such testimony, especially as against the
direct denial of the President. Even if
Pleasanton were a disinterested and trust
worthy witness, it would still be true that
his ''distinct impression" would be ruled
out as against the positive assertion of
the President himself Impressions are
often erroneous, and wrong differences
are frequently drawn. In this case, how
ever, no credence would be given to the
SANDER, on the score that an officer re-
moved ''for cause is not credible wit
ness against his late superior, especially
when one is the man Pleasanton and the
other General Grant, whose personal hon
esty even his enemies admit.-ChicdgO

"Say, what makes it look so awful
queer? The dirt won't come off, said
Emma
81 don't know" said Ellie, rejecting.
Why, I'll tell you. We didn't know
much, did we? We must put soap ON
them, of course T.
So they got mammals soap dish, and
soaped the clothes with Lubin's soap,
putting it on freely. Swash. splash, and
scrub again. until both of the children,
and everything within reach, were about
as wet as the clothes in the tub. Still the
dirt didn't come out.
"How funny the water looks What's

81 don't know" said Ellie, puzzled.
"What shall we do." asked Emma,
who was beginning to think that washing
was not so much fun after all. Ellie,
who did not know any more than she did
what to do, said grayely:
"Sister, it's awful naughty to 60 jun p
ing into mortar beds and spelling your
pretty little dress"
Emma began to cry. That cheered
Ellie up. 1t was q popularity OF the
twins, that if one was soTrowful the other
was not; and when ore was naughty the
other was almost always as good as she

in despair.

began pouring that on plentifully.
eff this won't do it." she said solemnlv,
as she poured. "weIl try the pallogolic.

Just then Bridget, hearing little voices
in the bathroom, tried the door, and
when she found it locked commenced
knocking and shaking the door, telling
them TO let her in. She. very naturally,
wanted to see what was going on.
But Ellie would not let her in, though
Bridget pounded, scolded, and coaxed.

Schurz, Pleasanton and the President.

CARL ScHURz has been compelled, by
the explicit denial given on the authority
of the President. to give his authority for
saying in his St. Louis speech that, haG
he supported the San Domingo Treaty, he
could have had all the patronage" he
wanted No wonder the man did not
want to give his authority, and comes to
it only on compulsion, for it is none other
than the written word of General
Pleasanton, the sorest of the soreheads.
1t will be remembered that Secretary
Boutwell, called for Pleasanton's resigna-
ton as Commissioner of Internal Revenue,
and that the Commissioner insisted upon
staying in Office. He appealed to the
President to retain him. They had been
warm personal friends, but General Grant
refused to be influenced by personal con-
siderations. The Secretary had lost con-

a WORD FOR THE CHILDREN

Children, make your mother happy,
Make her sing instead OF sigh;
For the mournful hour Of parting
May be very, very nigh.
Children, make your mother happy;
Many z iefs she has to bear;
And she wearie- meath her burdens
Can you not those burdens share:
Children, make YOUR mother happy;
Prompt obedience ch ers the heart,
While a wilful oisobedirnce
Pierccs like poisoned dart
Children, make your mother happy;
On her brow the lines of care
Deepen daily don't you see them?-
While your own are smooth and fair.
Children, make your mother happy;
For beneath the coffin-lid
All too soon ner face, so saint-like,
Shall for evermore be hid
Bitter tears and self upbraidings
Cannot bring her back again;
And remorseful m.mories
Are legacy Of pain.
oh. begin to-day. dear children,
Listen when dear mother spesks;
Render quick and sweet obedience;
For your highest good she seeks
Loves you better than all others
For your sake herself denies
She is Patient, prayerful, teuder.
Gentle, thoughtful, true and wise.
Never. while you live, dear children,
Though you search the rounded earth,
Will ynu find friend more faithful
Than the one who gave you birth.

THE death of an old man at Mapping
er's Falls, Dutchess County, n. Y, few
days ago, ended novel bargain, in which
more was paid than was intended to be
paid. About twenty-five years ago, when
the old man was about eighty years old.
he was partner in a manufacturing es-
tablishment, which he started and built up,
afterwards taking in two other partners.
These, after learning the business, wanted
to shove the old man out, but didn't sue
ceed until they promised to pay him
81 600 year until he died. So the old
man retired, but lived oh. In course of
time the younger partners died. Their
sons succeeded them, and they, too, died
before the old man, who continued in the
enjoyment of his 81, 900 income for years
after they were buried, and at last died
at the age, it is said, of 104 years

AN AMUSING

A Washington correspondent writes
as follows: While the House was in
Committee of the Whole to-day on
the deficiency appropriation bill a
question arose on which a division of
the House was demanded, and the
Chairman, Stevens, of Ohio, appoint
ed General Butler and General Farms
worth tellers. Butler and Fansworth
are not on speaking terms. and when
they met in front of the clerks desk
they did not observe the usual GUS
tom of shaking hands, whereupon
some member, wishing to carry on
the joke. insisted upon introducing
them. Butler was unwilling to look
at Farnsworth, while the latter refus-
ed to recognize Butler. They stood
looking away from each other without
speaking, to the great amusement of
the members who are familiar with
their peculiar relations. Each tried
to ignore the presence of the other.
and each announced the count of his
side without consultation or agree
ment. Fortunately for Farnsworth,
he could not tell whether Butler was
looking at him or not. He has an
impression that occasionally Butler
went one eye on him, but he is not
certain of this, for sometimes it
seemed as if Butler was looking ia
two or three different directions at
onee. The affair passed of without
any personal collision.
