pashed the foot on one side aud took

The next experiment was more
Simple, but no lees wonderful. Mr..
Brown, being blindfold, requested
one gentleman In the company to
TX his uaind on one of the others in
the room and he would lead him to
MhoeYer that party might be. Mr..
Brown being again made blindfold,
Cal. Joel was requested to thiak Of

led him around the room among the

settled his mind on the latter. Thus
what appeared 1T first to be failure
Was considered by ell present to be
the strongest proof Of the genuine

he would undertake an experiment
that would not admit of any suppo-

When the war ended, and the
three millions q day which 1t cost
was stopped, the speculative classes
rushed into other enterprises for
reckless expenditure. An era of
railroad building by Credit Mobi-
lier companies commenced, and
hundreds of millions of dollars
were borrowed on bonds and Voted
by municipalities aud cities, and .
large part OF the money was stolen,
and the roads are now bankrupt.
Every city developed . Bill Tweed
class of professional tax-eaters, who
sold bonds, multiplied municipal
debts, increased taxes, and robbed
the people. Every session Of Con-
gress the tariff was increased, in
whole or part, in order that those
having stocks OF goods could mark
up the price on the consumers and
changed up and down to suit the in
terests of the gamblers and thieves,
and thus matters were conducted.
Two years and . half ago we had
a collapse of inflated credit and .
financial revolution that swept away
the means OF tens of thousands. In,
the ruin were buried the vain am
billions Of the prematurelY rich.
Though gaunt poverty stands At
many threshold, the riOtOuS and
extravagant habits produced by the
war still curse the land, and are fast
bringing the nation to q financial
ruin only equaled by the moral
wreck already produced.
That man is alone serving his
country, his family and his race,
who firmly limits his expenditures
to his actual needs, and thus ACQUIRES
safely in the deluge that 10 rapidly

the inevitable curse of war.

in the little city of Camden,-had
achieved no distinction whatever
even in his own State, and had
not the first element of statesman
ship to recommend him for 8 Cab
met position.
Take too, poor Belknap,-what
had he to recommend him for such
an important and trying position
as that of Secretary of War! He
had been q good, fair officer in the
war of the Rebellion, as thousands
of others had, but where was
there the faintest evidence OF
craftsmanship about him? Ee
was not even a Republican,-had
never been known as q public mar
in Iowa, and had literally nothing
but the Presidents fancy to rec
ommend him. Temptation assail-
ed him and he yielded, and now
his fall has startled and shamed
the country. The President is
disgraced by him, and the great
Republican party must bear the
odium of the official sins of this
unknown Iowa Democrat whom
the Executive lifted out of obscur-
ity.
The lesson is one that all parties
may we'll heed. These Cabinet
positions should be filed only by
the statesmen of the country. No
President has q right to consult
merely his own preference in fill
ing them. The party that elects
President has a right to demand
that he shall call around him its
strongest and best men. If he
does not do so upon him must rest
the responsibility and the odium
Of the failures that may ensue.

A vessle becalmed near the

The heat was intense.
In the past tense.

were two men, each reclining on

You cannot fail to have recog-

"Why, of course, me ;earty.

"No, no. But when the mate

the skipper, ''old ard. l was

At that moment the sound d
hurrying feet on the deck above
attracted the notice of the two
friends, and then the cabin doors
were hastily opened by an indi
vidual whose gaunt form was
partly concealed by an Unster.
He advanced, and abruptly ex
claimed:

the Fiend, with a sardonic smile.
| Without a moments hesitation
the young man drew his trusty
navy revolver and sent sever
ounces of lead crashing into th'
brains of the Fiend.
Did we say brains? We mean

The Book Agent fell insensible.
Always insensible to the feelings
of others, he was more insensiblt
than ever at that moment.
