Presidential Probabilities.

A Washington special, May 3Oth, to
the Baltimore Sun Dem says:
1t seems that Secretary Bristow has
formally been brought forward for the
Presidency at a Republican meeting
in Columbia county, Pennsylvania.
1t is understood from his friends here
that he has himself avowedly entered
the lists. One evidence of this is that
he is bookedn for addresses in va
rious parts of the country. Yesterday
he delivered an Grafton at Louisville.
The next move will be Republican
County Convention in Kentucky pro-
claiming him for the Presidency. In
few weeks he will go to Washington
county, Pa, to deliver an address at a
college dedication, where his rival, ex-
Speaker Blaine, will also be present
and deliver an address.

Pension Office Regulations.

Commissioner Atkinson, of the PEN
sion Office, has issued "a circular of in
structions for the guidance of eXamin-
ing surgeons in making examinations
of pensioners. 1t contains many new
and specific directions, looking to a
more careful and rigid examination
with a view of overcoming any exist
ing frauds and preventing new ones,
The following are among the new in
structiOns Biennial examinations of
army aud navy invalid pensioners are
now required by section All revised
code on every odd year, the next being
due September /, 1875. At these eX-
aminatlons it is the primary object to
determine whether the disability still
exists in the degree at which pension
is being paid. If, however, the disa-
bility shall have increased, or if a new
disability, Enthusiastically dependent
upon the original disability, shall be
found it should be described and rated.
No claimant for original pension, for
increase of, for renewal or restoration
should be examined excepting upon
the order OF this Office. Examination
before payment, .. G., an examination
required by the law or the terms of the
certificate, may be made without the
OTueT Ol lne olllce. IL no case sHOulu
an examination be made az the request
of a probable or possible claimant, the
object Of which is to secure the opinion
of the surgeon whether an application
could or could not be sustained.
The same rule applies also to an ex-
animation 10 determine if the charac-
ter Ol the disability might not exempt
a pensioner from biennial eXamina-
ton. in either of these cases the surs
geon, applied to should express no
opinion, but simply refer the person to
this Office, which, upon the receipt Of
the application, will direct such action
as may be necessary.

The use of abestos as piston-rod pack
ing appears to be still gaining in favor
with engineers, friction having no ap-
preciable effect upon the substance, and
however great the pressure of steam, or
however high the temperature may be,
such packing is said to be unaffected.
Recently the statement has been made
that this packing in oeean-going steam
ers, put in more than sixteen months
ago, is still apparently as good as ever.
The Anglia, one Of the regular transat-
lantic steamers, has, it is stated, made
fourteen round trips, having steamed on
the same packing over ninety-eight thou
sand miles. Another device has been
proposed in this connection, namely, to
place in a yentilating shaft a bag OF
abestos. This, like cotton, viii arrest
any solid particles floating in the air, and
when much soiled, the abestos can be re-
moved and made white hot, by which all
organic matters will be destroyed, and il
may then be put back into the shaft.

THE SULTAN AND SATAN.

There is an eastern story of a Sultan
who oversight himself so as not to awaken
at the hour of prayer So the devil came
and walked him and told him to pray.
"Who are you?" said the Sultan. "Oh,
no matter" replied the other; "my act is
good isit not? No matter who does the
good action, so long as tits good" "Yes, u
replied the Sultan, "but think you are
Satan, | know your face; you have some
bad motive" "But," says the other,
am not so bad as am painted, You see
| have left off my horns and tail. am a
pretty good fellow after all. l was an
angel once, and l still keep some of my
original goodness" That's all very
we'll" replied the sagacious and prudent
Caliph, 'but you are the tempter; that's
your business, and wish to know why
you want me to get tupand pray" "Well," !"
said the devil, with flirt Of impatience,
"ifyou must know l will tell you. If
you had slept and forgotten your prayers
You would have been sorry for it after
ward and penitent, but if you 60 on as
now and do not neglecta single prayer
for ten years, you will be so satisfied with
yourself that it will be worse for YOU
than eff you had missed one sometimes
and repented Of it. God loves your faults
mixed with penitence, more than your
virtue seasoned with pride"

4 BEA UTIFNL INCIDENT

A poor Arab travelling in the desert
met with a spring of clear, sweet, spark
ling water. Used as he only was to
brackish wells, such water as this ap-
peared to his simple mind worthy of a
monarch, and, filling his leathern bottle
from the spring, he determined to go and
present it to the Caliph himself.
The poor man travelled a long way be-
fore he reached the presence of his SOW
ereign, and laid his humble offering at
his feet. The Caliph did not despise the
little gift brought to him with so much
trouble. He ordered some of the water
to be poured into cup, drank it, and.
thanking the Arab with a smile, ordered
him to be presented with reward. The
courtiers around pressed forward eager
to taste of this wonderful water, but, to
the surprise of all, the Caliph forbade
them to touch single drop.
After the poor Arab had quilted the
royal presence with light and Joyful
heart, the Caliph turned to his courtiers,
and thus explained this conduct:
During the travels of the Arab" said
he, "the water in his leathern bottle be-
came impure and distasteful, but it was
an offering of love, and as such have
received it with pleasure. But l well
knew that had / suffered another TO par
take of it, he would not have concealed
his disgust, and therefore | forbade you
to touch the draught, lest the heart of
the poor man should have been wound-

Robert, Boatwright, the, youth who
thought to ayenge his brothers death in
so Sensational a manner, is astrong, we'll

Woodson, is slight, little fellow, about
fifteen years ofage. When young Boat
wright was asked by Chief Harrigan
what inspired him to do the deed, he
said his brother, an hour before death,
had exacted from hlm promise to kill
the boy Woodson, and he had intended
to keep the promise. He expressed no
regret at what he had done, but seemed
rather to exult in it. The knife with
which the cutting was done is what is
known to hardware dealers as a hunting
knife, with d plain cocoa handle, The
blade is thin, keen-edged, with long,
tapering point, and is about ten inches in
length On the handle were carved the
initials 80. j. b." indicating that it be-
onged to o. j. Boatwright.
The outrageous character Of this deed
will be better understood when it is con-
sidered that the act for which young
Woodson is on trial was probably com
mitted during the progress Of street
skirmish between a number of white
and colored boys, in which stones and
other missiles were thrown freely on
both sides. Moreover, it is more than
doubtful who threw the particular one
which struck young Boatwright. There
seems no possible excuse for such an act,

The Adm inistration, says the New

ate effort to carry the election in Con-
necticut next April, for the personal feel
ings of tn, Presidentare deeply interest
ed in the result. The Republican State
Convention endorsed Grants Adminis-
tration to the fullest extent, aud swal-
lowed the Louisiana iniqiity without a
qimace. This delighted Grant as much
as theanti-third-telm resolution of the
New Hampshire Republicans had dis
gusted him, and in Connecticut can ,be
won while New Hampshire islost, it will
be claimed as an unmistakable Indication
that the Third Term project is popular
with the people If the Connecticut Re-
publicans have any lack Of funds for their
camI aign it will be owing to an unex-
pected deficiency in the Treasury of the
United States. Such emergencies have
doubtless been carefully provided for in

THE Louisville Journal calls
Grants attention to the following extract
from Washington's farewell address.
1t is important, likewise, that the hab-
its of thinking in free country should
inspire caution in those intrusted with
its administration to confne themselves
within their respective constitutional
spheres, avoiding in the exercise of one
department encroachment upon those of
another The spirit of encroachment
tends to consolidate the powers of all the
departments in one, and thus to create,
whatever the form Of the government, a
real despotism A just estimate of that
love of power and proneness to abuse it,
which predominates in the human heart,
is sufficient to satisfy US of the truth of
his position. It. Let there be no
change by usurpation; for though this,
in one instance may be the instrument
of good, is in the customary weapon by
which free governments are destroyed.
The precedent must always greatly over
balance in permanent evil any partial or
transient benefit which the use can at
any time yield.

ply, celebrated Irish giant-as large
though by no means as ferocious as the
famous Kilmeny O'Gobble Kilmore--
died in Baltimore. He was born at
Waterford, Ireland, in low station of
life, though his accretive abilities after
ward gave him a very high Standing
eight feet in his stockings His father
was a small farmer, but he himself by
patient industry, came at last to weigh
three hundred and fifty-one pounds be-
fore he went the weigh of all flesh. His
parents brought him to this country, and
for three years he travelled with Barnum,
being looked upon as one of the greatest
curiosities in the world, and visiting
nearly every place in the Union, from
Maine to the extreme West and South
He then travelled with circus to give it
weight and standing and finally went to
where he kept a restaurant up
to the day of his death. He was hand.

A RASH PROMISE TOO F4ITHFUL-
LY KEPT.

A scoundrelly outrage was perpetrated
yesterday afternoon, before the very bar
of Justice, while a negro boy named
Charles Woodson was being tried in the
Criminal Court, on charge Of murder in
the second degree, for the alleged killing
of Oscar j., Boatwright. The history OF
the case is briefly that on the 23d of Sep
tember last young Boatwright was hilton
the head with stone or piece of brick,
and went home badly hurt. According
to the testimony of NJ. NJ Boatwright,
father of the boy, his son refused for some
DAYS to tell who had thrown the missile,
but finally, when it appeared that he
could not recover, said it was Charles
Woodson. As consequence the latter
was arrested, and his trial has occupied
the attention of the courts from time to
time ince.
Yesterday afternoon about three
o'clock, the case was in prog ,ess, and Mr.,
Boatwright was on the witness stand.
The jury had retired to allow the counsel
to argue point as to the admission OF
certain evidence. While the attention
of all was directed to the speakers, Rob-
ert Boatwright, brother of the deceased
entered the court room, walked coolly up
to where Woodson was sitting, and lean
ing over him from behind, plunged a
long keen knife into his abdomen.
The colored boy started to his feet and
fell back with convulsiye shudder in
his chair Young Boatwright tossed his
arms, still clutching the bloody knife,
struck tragic attitude and cried out.
Damn you, yol killed my brother, and
now I've killed 5ou."
The Judge, clerk and bystanders were
SO astounded at the utter wantonness of
the sudden and murderous assault, that
they remained for moment motionless
