An English Estimate Of Peeci.

Pecci is tall. with . fine head, high FORE
head, narrowing at the temples, long face,
and straight features, He has . large
mouth, prominent chin, cheerful, open
countenance, and large, well-shaped ears.
His face reminds one of Consalvi, the re-
nowned Munster of Plus VII He has .
fine sonorous voice, great dignity. even
austerity of manners in public lite, but
privately is efectionate, unassuming, soeia-
BILE and witty. As Camerlengo he has been
the head of that party which, without FORM
ally renouncing the right of the Holy See,
acknowledges the wisd Jm of submitting to
the DEGREES of providence, accepting what
seems to be irrevocably accomplished facts.
The general opinion is that for learning,
tact, energy, dignity, amiability, real
moral worth and sincere piety the Sacred
College could not find more deserving
Pope than Cardinal Pecci. At Perugia he
followed the same policy recommended By
the late Cardinal Riario Sforzi. AT Naples
ne advised good Catholics to fulfill their
duties as citizens at municipal and Drovin-
cial elections, even when the clegical press,
protesting to interpret the mind of the Va
tican, enjoined the policy Of absention.
Cardinal Pecci spoke with great effect
against the proposal for the removal Of the
Conelave from Rome, and other measures
advocated by the reactionary party. He
enjoys the confidence and support of the
liberals, or at least, . reasonable majority Of
them, in the Sacred College, and plays the
Same part as was sustained By Cardinal
Gizzi In the Conclave of 1854. Cardinal
Peccs's private life at all periods is above
reproach. He has considerable literary tai
ent and has written psetry. He never has
had Intercourse with the funetionaries Of
the present Italian Government, but is es-
teemed by them al. and these with whom
the necessity Of his duty brings MIN into
contact are perfectly charmed with him.

A Winnebago Ball
Sioux City Journal.

Sioux City journal.
About % Winnebago Indians held hop
at Hedges Hall last evening, admission 25
cents. 1t was well attended. That anti
quated maiden of the plains, Winnebago
Jane, was mistress of ceremonies. The ex-
ercses comprised the usual exhibitions, such
as feast, scalp and war dances, and the
braves and bravesses shook their light fam
tastic toes and heels with considerable Wig
or, showing more leggiugs than grace. 1t
was sort of calico ball; both sexes being
attired to some extent in this very useful
and somewhat ornamental fabric. The Or
chestra consisted of a single performer who
hammered noise out of fish kit with dog
skin stretched over one end of it, this being
beat with regularity and also with stick.
The music was intended as an accompani-
ment for the singing, which was indulged
in by the whole party, the choristers evil
IDENTIFY feeling that solos and duets would
not answer for the Importance of the oc-
casion. The earnestness of the songsters
as they joined in the cantata was quite re-
freshiug. their countenances shining with
emotion and sweat. Mile. Winnebagoan-
MIA Janeni and Herr Won Wrinkled Phiz,
two aged savages, went about the perform
ance as if they were engaged in very sa-
cred ceremony, and it kept them busy to re-
press the disposition for levIty manifested
by some of the young artistes. There was
not about the exhibition that intense feel
ing which is displayed when the Indians
meet in their camps for q dance for other
purposes than to raise money by charging
admission. The frenzy into which they
throw themselves there was altogether
lacking, but the show was sufficient to give
to such spectators as looked for the first
time upon such scene, something of an
idea of what an Indian dance is.

JAY GOULD FRIGHTENED.
How He Obtained Information from HIGH

+ CHICAGO, March 2.-'The Times Wash.
ington special says: While the, Union Pa
c'f1c interest case was pending before he
United States Supreme Court, Jay Gould
was exceedingly troubled inTrgard to the
decision that was about to be delivered.
Attorney General Pierrepont had argued
the case for the Government, and was ysry
confident that 1t would bei decided ad-
versely to the railroad company. so san
guine was he of winning the case, and SO
positively did he express this, opinion, that
q great many stock gamblersiin New-iYork
were induced to go short OF Union acific
stock. The bears had decidedly the best Of
Gould, and with all his exeitions he could
not prevent-a depreciation of securities in
VII ich he had invested so largely. He was
frightened. Pierfepont was 80 confident
and so many brokers were selling short ON
his Judgment that Gould began to believe
that the decision was nnfavora Bile to him,
which SO preyed upon him that his health
began to fail In desperation he went to
oNNkoo AAAo6 GOA3 OuC Va LIS 6LC0EuGyB, ana
told him the trouble he was in, and asked if
he could not get him some reliable infor-
nation iri regard to the decision. Fullerton
finally ARA nged with Mrs. Morgan A.
Smith, wife Of d lobbyist, to get inforrna-
ton from Mrs. Justice Hi iler. Gould gave
three calls for Union Pacific stock, aegre-
eating twenty five hundred shares, which
was to be divided among the parties
through whom the information was obtain
ed Then he got the information and pro-
,eeded to bull the stock and run 1t up to |
SET cents. The calls were presented and |
Gould refused to honor them, SO ying the
Information was not reliable, and that he
lad obtained it in another way. Finally
uit was brought in New York Courts, but
vas not pushed, and at length, on sugges-
ion of Judge Fullerton, il was dropped,
drs. Smith concluding to fight Gould in
Washington through any schemes before
Congress- in which he might be interested.

A WoMAN's, SIGHT RESTORED FOR TEN
MINUTES. Abbott, who resides with
in few miles of Pitts Point, IN this coun-
ty, says the Elizabeth (Kentucky) Neaos
had singular circumstance happen to her
une day last week. She has been totally
blind for about eight years, but for about
ten. minutes on the day in question she
recovered her sight and was enabled during
that brief period to see everything about
the house, something she has not been able
TO do for eight years before. The house
had recently been newly papered and
painted, and when total blindness came
over her again she described accurately
the various colors used in the papering and
painting. Her SON had married since she
lost her sight and she had never seen her
|daughter-in-law, but in the period she was
restored to sight she saw her, and aft err
ward described her appearance accurately.
The nomentary ecstasy occasioned By the
miraculous restoration to sight was IS sud
denly dissipated by its equally instantane-
GUS loss, and she is now as blind as ever.
This case is one of singular interest.

The SALARIES They DANCE FoR. -
There are now carried on the army rolls II
generals and 566 general staff officers, be-
sides 439 cavalry, 2s4 artillery and SIT in
fantry officers. This makes one officer to
about four and half privates, which the
general run Of unappreciative people think
is little too large. Besides this there are
3O1 officers who, although they draw pay
from general down to major, are on the re-
tired list and render no service whatever.
Army officers have very strong influence,
in social way, that they dance themselves
into, and which they have always used
when they found themselves In danger.
They operate with the wives and daughters
of Senators and Representatives in Com
gress, and already express themselves as
being powerful enough TO keep up this ex-
orbitant expense, even If the people,
through some of their representatives, do
object. In many cases generals receive
more money than it requires to pay their
commands majors more than their battal-
iors captains more than their companies,
and lieutenants more than the detachments
under their command. Il Hartford Times.
