involved all the communications and

involved all the communication and
defenses of the northwest--thatG Geo.
Croghan, with his gallant record, was
to be court-martialcd on charge of
"lntempcrance i'll alcoholic drinks."
When the arbitrary, illogical, anti-re-
form old general heard this, he laid
down his pipe, rose from his chair,
smote the table with his clenched fist,
and wit hproverbial energy, declared !:
"Those proceedings of court-martiaI
shall be stopped, sir! George Cro-
CHAN shall get drunk every day, of his
life, il he wants TO, and, by the Eter-
nal, the United States shall pay forthe
whisky" gI5 a
As q member of cold-water tenn
pie, Gen. Jackson's speech cannot be
|applauded Nor does he make a mitch
better show as civil-service reform
or, but I think he came much nearer
the American heart. think he repre-
sented much more accurately the real
wishes of the American people, and
think, also, that if Miss Meade were
far less able to work than the reform
ers represent her, the people would
still forgive Mr.. Schurz more freely
for breaking his rules and retaining
her, at their expense, than for casting
her adrift in the interests of rigid
and economical integrity.
l have heard that Miss Meade, hav-
ing been dismissed, was afterward re-
turned to her post by the presidents
own intervention. thrust this is true
am sure that no one act of hiswhole
reform would be more creditable to
his head, or would more recommend
him to the sympathy of the people,.

Particular about Her Associates

The Dnbuque Iowa) Tiiaes, of the
lTth, says: "Thc following may
sound like a biirlcsqne, bit il ii an
actual occurrence that took place in
this city, yesterday. A young lady,
who claimed to be in want of 4, place.
was told that Mrs. s.. the lanalady OF
a boarding house, was in need Of
girl, and, il she could find a good
one, who would give satisfaction,
would keep her. Over to Mrs. s.
goes the seeker of a situation In ihe
course of the conversation that en-
sued Mrs. s. casually that
she Kept ~ few bosrders The girl
inquired "Will Ibe expected to as
sociate with the boarders 7? Mrs. s.,
with some emphasis, eSplaiaed that
she would he employees for thc pur-
pose of waiting uPoniic baar,iers,at
meal times, at least. The girl pom
dered, and finally said if il was eN-
pected that she must associate with
| The boarders she guessed she wouldn't
come. And she did not. As the
very elite of Dubuque society board
at the place referred to, the girls re-
pugnance shows her to possess rare-
ly exalted taste and tone"
