CURIOUS CoNuNDRUM.-A Boston
newspaper, as if aggravating conun-
drums enough had not been started
already, wants to know "Why two
thirds ofthe hotel clerks are bald?"
If this be the fact, Of which we are
not sure, it may be because the for
ces Of nature have been diverted
from the scalp to the cultivation of
supernatural cheek. Possibly these
gentlemen sell their hair to raise
money for the purchase of shirt-pins.
Or the consignment of innocent and
way-worn travellers to the sixteenth
story may subsequently breed re-
morse Though we doubt it, and re-
morse may, in turn, produce the bill
liard-ball badness. But it isn't a
problem with which, in this weather,
we care to grapple. 81

people. of the South. They are men
who forget that in presence of the
dead the eye Of anger should lose its
baleful fire, and fill with the arm and
holy light Of kindness. They are
the men who forget that vengeance
should dof it's casque of steel, take
off it's shoes of mail, and tread with
reverent footsteps and uncovered
head beside the graves where brave
men sleep. They are the men who
forget that while it is possible to
crush the armies and bury the BAN
ners of a people. it is not possible to
entomb their memories. Memory,
sir, is q monarch who holds unboun-
ded sway III enchanted realms, and
when he waves his mighty wand,
bolts and bars and all the contrivan-
ces Of human ingenuity to stay his
progress are Of no avail. At his be-
hest, all that is grand Or beautiful, or
worth recalling in the history Of
people, marching with noiseless foot
steps to music unheard Of mortal
ears, sweeps by his throne in grand
procession.

Let it not be written, let it not go
down in history, that we struck
chains from the limbs of four mil
lions of black people only to bind
them upon the limbs Of eight mil
lions of white people. I believe that
the black race of this country should
have every right that we possess
But I do not believe they should have
any more. Not for them, as has
been the case in Louisiana, should
armies be invoked to destroy the
ssnctity Of the ballot and to silence
the voice of the people. Not under
the pretense that it is for their ele-
walton should eight millions Of peo-
pie, in whose hearts to-day throbs
the same blood that throbs in yours
and mine, be made to pass under the
yoke and be smitten with thongs
all the law gives for their equality.
But their supremacy, if supremacy
they achieve, should be the result Of
their own efforts, not enforced by
Federal bayonets. Armies if need
be to sustain them in their rights,
but no arms to sanctify their wrongs
and give them force of law.
For myself I ask nothing. Ispeak
for Louisiana. I claim for her the
Justice which is her birth right.
Clothed in the garments of woe,
bending her queenly head in sorrow,
suffering such oppression as never
before fellsto the lot Of any State in
the Union, she yet maintains her
faith in the Federal compact, her be-
lief in the justice Of this great ma
tion. Weak and tottering as she is,
her hand would be among the first to
seize the sword if wars alarm were
sounded in the land; if danger
threaten, side by side, shoulder to
shoulder, the men who live beneath
her tropic skies would march with
the men of the North in defense of
this nations honor.
l ask such Judgment at your hands
as l am entitled to expect. I ask no
Republican votes because have been
a Republican. I ask no Democratic
votes because I have affiliated with
the Democracy. I simply ask you
shall do the people justice in the
person of the representative they
have sent here. -"

Whose heart seems the highest,
Where all hearts are light;
Though her eye dances gaily,
Though smooth is her brow,
There's a barb in her BOSOM

about it in another way. He offered
to share with certain parties the
amount Of his appropriation, if he
was successful, but probably he did
not come down heavy enough for the

past success, he thought he would
try Vigers, Bill Vigers, clerk, whom
we believe the Bulletin has made the

day, with pangs' of patriotic anguish

Here is journalistic biography. con-
densed from Max Adeler in the Dan
bury Nsns: 10y
Colonel Bangs. s,litor Of the Morning
Aryus, became a journalist because he
couldn't help 1t. Shortly after he was
born, the doctor ordered that the baby
should be fed upon goats milk. This
was procured from goat in the rear OF
the Office OF the Weekly Ssartier. and fed
chiefly upon the exchanges which came
TO that Journal. Tho consequence was
that youn: Bangs was fed entirely upon
milk that was formed from digssted
newspapers, and he throvo on 1t.
although. when the Irish woman mixed
the Dsmocrvtic journals carslessly with
the whig papers. they disagreed when
they were eaten, and the milk gave the
baby the solic. Old Bangs intended the
boy to be minister; but as soon a. he
was old enough to take notice, he cried
for every newspaper that he happened
10 see. He ran away from school four
times 10 enter newspaper Office as q
devil. and finally. when old Bangs put
him in the House Of Refuge, he started
weekly in there. and called II the
House Of R,fege Record; and one day he
slid over the wall and went down - the
Efu Office. where he changed his name
TO whsngs. and began his career on that
paper with an article ON " Our Reforma-
tory Institutions for the Young" Then
old Bangs surrendered to what seemed
10 be a combination Of manifest destiny
and goats milk. and permitted him TO
pursue his profession. But you wsnld
hardly believe this story II you ever read
the Arys. often suspect, when l Am
looking over that sheet, that the nurse
used to mix the goats milk with an un-
fair proportion OF water.

communicating intelligence, operate by natural
law as much as the electricians who work the At

to get intelligence from the Sandwich Islands,
must be en- rapport with some one there in order

What Is the Enghsh stloke2 For England Is u
la.ge country, ana confess II was asked TO de-
fine Sne Anerican stroke that would be at q loss;
ior there ls no d1stinctlvey national stroke in
either country. Gulston and his London crew never
rowed in 1869 at any rate, with all the stlll formal
the wild scramble accredited often TO Cambridge.
Now. which Was the English strokes Captain COOK,
Is correct, was taught mainly by Captain Gulst0n.
The stroke, to look at, seems principally different
in the water and less in pulling it through it.
IL is claimed that thus the ROVER Is tired less
because he gets longer rests ne also rows
several strokes less minute but better ones.
There are also minor points, ike throwing the
head back in the last half OF the stroke and max
ing its weight tell. The first man ever do this
was Sir Charles Dixie, when he was in this cOun try
In 1866. We lent him a boat at Cambridge and the
way he set his head back makes me think that he
may, after all, make something OF this movement,
where he and one other gentleman u while ago
found themselves in a noble minority OF two, so
pefsistentty did he Keep ii up. That the main
features OF this stroke. as described, help man
much, believe; but think. its superiority has
either not been sufficiently tested 10 prove 1t cOn-
elusiveiy better, or else tnat the Wards victory
demands explanations. Columbia at least Is re-
