press an interview between General
Gordon and u reporter The substance
Of that interview was in effect that Mr..
Hills attitude was unfortunate for
himself md deplorable to the Demo
cratic party" That ut was exceedingly
unfortunate that Mr. Hills action In
somo instances in the past had laid q
foundation for the reports and rumors
concerning his present designs That
the General did aot feel Mt liberty TO
give Tree expression to his opinions
touching Mr., lIilPs attitude since it
might be construed as an interference
by him in the senatorial contest pend
ing in Georgia. and Quoting u Balti-

been badly treated by the Democracy
of his State and in Congress, and IL
ripe for revolt,
The whole tenor Of this published in.

during the senatorial race, must mani
testify have been intended to bring
about Hills defeat, Gordon considered
HIM dangerous rival and thus sought
his destruction. But he failed inglori.
ously, for Ilill went in by triumphant
vote, and the telegram announcing his
success was placed in his hands before
the applause evoked by his great speech
on the compromise bill had ceased it,
echoes in the Representative chamber
That Gordon and Hill can now be
friends may be ranked among the very
remote possibilities.

rare power of sei2ing upon the salient

no more sacred when it comes to us

have invariably been driven to the wall.
Truth, wherever found, is sacred because

The co,ored West Pointer.

Lieutenant Flipper was born at
Thomasyille, Thomas county, Geor-
gia, March 81. 1856. and is now
past 81 years Of age. He was born
a slave, the property of Rev. Il.
Lackey. q Methodist minister Of
Thomasyille. His father was the
slave of Mr.. E. G. Tender, who after
wards bought Henry and his mother
and moved to Atlanta. During the
last nine months of the war lIenry's
father and himself lived as refugees
at Macon, bit after this returned to
Atlanta. The lad received some in.
struction there from the wife of an
ex-confedera.e officer. In 1866 he
attended the mission school. In
lSG7-6S be attended the Storr's public
school, and in go be entered the
Atlanta University, which is partly
supported by the State. He remain
ed 10 this institution until his APP
pointment 20 West Point by Congress
man Freeman. 1t is stated that
while there. despite the antagonism
of the prevalent aristocraey of that
institution, he held his own under
the most trying tests AID the most
severe examinations, concocted with
the evident intention to "freeze him
out" He was, however, found pre-
pared for these issues, and came
through with success. The Southern
papers speak Of him with no little
co%mplacency. and are INCLINED to
give him due honor.

An Emprc.~' Co.aume.

A friend in Paris thlls me that at
the last reception ut the Elysee :he
Empress of the Brazils wore a dress
of pale blue brocatelle, ornameni.d
with old Bruxe'lrs point lace, ard
bouquet o purple cactus; as be, d.
dress, an a~igrette, with cactus and
arrow OF diamonds. MADAME de
Sampany, a dame d. honneur of the
Empress, had a dress Of brbcatelle,
queule de loup, or fox-glove red, over
lemon colored faille. with high comb
of diamonds, and mantilla of white
blonde. The MARKETABLE wore ivory
white fingered silk. over a skirt Of
Parma violet. with thin cordons or
strings Of dark velvet on the seams
and edge of the skirt. At the Aute-
uil races the Empress had a plain
dress of gray faille, princesse fash
ion, and for young. graceful figures,
extremely pretty; but rs each season
has its peculiar flowers; SO ought
each age to have It's fashion; howev-
er, that is an awkward subject to
touch upon, but in my eye the chief
evil of the ~princesse shape is that
the stouter the lady happens to be,
the more she PERSISTS iu wearing this
shape, and in addition insists on hay-
ing the dress made as close-gtting as
possible. As a rule, however, all
dresses are made much Tess tight
fitting than a month ago.
