"Unele Luther" Beecher, where any
meal, either breakfast, dinner or sup
per, can be had for 10 cents.
The eating house was opened on
Monday, and has been ia operation all
the week. On Thursdsyabout 800 per-
sons were served with dinner, and on
Wednesday about 80. The dinner
room is about loo feet long and about

Randolph and Woodbridge streets
It is provided with seats for 220 peO
pie, as follows There are % plain
wooden tables arranged in rows,
each of which will ccommodate 10
persons, five on each side, and the
seats are three-legged stools. The
entrance is on Randolph street. and

ENCOURAGING sLIGHTED GENIUS
A Singular Story OF Gen. Grant.


I The subjOined scrap OF history is
from the Herdld's review OF Sber-
mans memories There Is a singu-
lar story OF Gen. GraLt that, when
taxing command of the army, he was
anxious to draw again into its ser.
vice those officers OF note and infiu-
enee who had for various reasons
"drifted into inactivity and diseon-
tent" among them Gems, Buell..
Mcclellan, Burnside, MeCOOk and
Fremont. Gen. Grant, Sherman in
iorms Us, Thought it wise and pru-
dent to give all these officers anpro-
pirate commands that would enable
them to regain the influences they
had lost" and he instructed Sher-
men To specially look out for Buell..
MeCOOk aud Crittenden. As II was
manifest that We were TO havc some
hard fighting he was anxious To bring
into harmony every man and every
officer Ofskill inthe profession of arms
TINS purpose was only partly realiZe,I
and sherman informs Us shat Mr.
Stanton, Secretary of War, "was nc
tOriOusly vindictiYe in his preiu-
dices, and would not consent TO the
employment OF these high officers.
We mention this fact as one not gen
orally known in the history OF the
war, and rejecting credit upon the
discernment and the generosity OF
Grant, who believed that to suppress
the rebellion it was necessary to use
every ageney that could be obtained.
There Is tine, patriotic story Of the

tsry % the Treasury under President
Pierce, aud the President Of 3 Ken

upon him IS resident of a southern
State MIR. Guthrie complained that
General sherman had detained his
locomotives and cars. ''I wrote 10
him" says Sherman, ''frankly telling

pealing tn his patriotism TO stand by
US. / advised him in like manner to
hold on to all trains coming into JEFF

spare bed is always as near q mile
and half way from the rest OF the

stairs at the end of the hall or of the
parlor. The parlor curtains have not
been raised for weeks everything is
as prim as an old maids bonnet, and
the bed is as square and true as il it
had been made up to a carpenters
rule. No matter whether it be sum-
mer or winter, the bed is like ice,
and il sinks down in q way to make
one shiver.. The sheets are slipper
