The Greenbackers do pick out queer men for
leaders; there can be no doubt about that. In
Maine the chairman of their State committee
is said to have accumulated fortune OF $780,
600 by lending money at usurious rates OF in
terest. The Augusta Journal calls HIM the
g champion money-lender Of the Kennebec
Valley" and charges that he had almost com
pleted arrangements for starting a national
bank at Gardiner two years ago, when he dis
covered that he could get larger per cent for
his money In other ways, and abandoned the
project. The Journal says he habitually
charges eight and ten per cent. interest holds
large amount Of Government bonds, is a
trustee OF savings bank, and lives in the moot
elegant house in the city Of Gardiner; yet this
man, who has acquired fortune by money
lending, signs flaming circular denouncing
money-lenders and bondholders. This seems
10 be one o. the sublimest cases OF unadultera-
ted check" on record

EDITOR TRUE NoRrHERSxg:


Havlrg carefully read the letter OF II. J.
Relyea. AZ 1t appears in last week. Iadepend-
eai [ desire to ask the question: What does
it amount to? Admitting every word OF said
Whitney went through the farce Of appointing
such committee to examine an applicant out
OF court still. how does that help L. NJ. Brown
IN his race for the Prosecuting Attorneyship.
Ny understanding OF it is that the United
States Courts. OF which Judge Whitney is the
presiding Judge, admits no one to the practice
in those Courts except they are already pracu-
TONERS in the State Courts. But, supposing l
am mistaken il this, still the case Of Mr..
Brown ia not helped An admission By a
United States Court would not give him au-
thority to practice in the State Courts. BY the
following rules prescribed by the Supreme
court for the admission OF Attorneys ii will be
seen thai the examination must not only be
in open Court, but the application muss be
male in the Judicial Circuit where the appli-
caDt resides.
RULE L, Applicants for admission to prac-
tice az the bar as Attorneys and Councillors
shall be sxsmined, il entitled thereto. in open
Court upon the principles Of common law and
practice generally, as well at law as in equity
RULE z. 10 enutle an applicant 10 an ex-
animation, he must make application By petit
ton, addressed 20 the court, verified by his
own oath 10 which he must state that he is
a citizen OF the United States twenty one
years OF age. and resident OF the Judicial
Circuit in which he so applies. To such petit
tlon before 1t shall be acted upon BY the court.
there must be annexed the certificate OF ut
least ono reputable member OF the bar, or
soms other reputable person known to the
court, certifying to the good moral character
OF the applicant aud in manner satisfactory
to the Court"
1t will DO seen by this that tas examination
must be made al Paw Paw OF Kalamazoo.

its reputation for honsty--that is to
say. for honest intention: yet it would
be absurd TO say sucn class of men
were inaccessible to the bad impulses
of human nature. Gen. Marcy had
stated that while the administration
to the war department cost SlS,0O0o 900,
the Indian department cost $500, 900;
difference of S3,200,0o0. Such a COM
parison was absurd. The Indian bust
ness in $40 was nothing to what it had
now become. He read statement of
the amount paid per 100 pounds of beef
by the two departments of the Indian
bureau and of the military, which
showing n saving Of $6,440,00O in favor
of the former General Miles had
stated that the transportation Of
the army cost S4,00O,0OO, while
the transportation of food, clothing,
etc, for Indians only cost 1925, 600 A
glance would show that the department
of the interior got its transportation at
cheaper rates. He did not attribute
any of these things to the dishonesty of
the army, but rather to their cavalier
way o. looking at and dealing with
things. Soldiers never thought of the
cost of a thing, if it was thought
to be necessary, As an instance, he
mentioned that ut the close of the
Sioux war there were about 10000
horses, ponies and mules taken from
the Indians, for which COWS were to be
given them, and 1t turned ont that these
ponies and mules cost SIS, 400 besides
the COWS, and that to sell them cost
50, 6S3 additional This was an instance
of their cavalierly way, which was not
found in the interior department.
G.. c. Watkins, inspector Of the In
dian department, followed Schurz, and
opposed the transfer. He explained
the mode of inspection of Indian sup
plies.
Gen. Miles gave his reasons why the
control of the Indians should not pass
to the war department.

A Whole Family In Heaven.

The following eloquent passage Is
from the pen of Albert Barnes: A whole
family in Heaven VINO can picture
or describe the everlasting Joy? No one
absent. Nor father, nor mother, nor
son, nor daughter, away. In the world
they were united in faith, and love, and
peace, and joy. In the morning
of the resurrection they asccndod to-
gether. Before the throne they bow to-
gether in united alteration. On the
banks of the river OF life they walk
hand in hand, and rs family they
have commenced career of glory
which shall be everlasting. Their here
after is TO be no separation IN that
family. No one is to lie down on n
bed OF pain; no one 10 SINK into the arm
Of death. Never, in Heaven, Is that
family to move along in the slow pro-
cession, clad in the habiliments Of woe,
to consign one Of its members to the
tomb. God grant that in his intimate
mercy every family may be thus
united

The dusky BANJO man goes up and
down the streets singing for ms bread,
His banjo Is Il sweettoned instrument,
and under his skilful lingering il gives
forth dozen familiar melodies that
ravish the uncuitivated ear Of the popu-
lace. The first faint notes Of his pre-
Jude, or even the tuning of his strings,
causes n dozen men sitting around ON
drygoods boxes or holding up awning
posts to prick up their ears and slowly
gravitate towards the spot. They come
IN from every point OF the compass,
when he begins Way down upon the
Swanee River every face beams with
pleasure, and the nodding heads keep
Tune to the music. Ouce ina while the
performer misses n note OF fills in gal
III the time with false one, but thai
takes all the better, for it gives every
man in the crowd n chance 10 frown and
way show that his oXperinced ear has
detected the blundcr. Then, when the
musician jumps up few notes and
launches into the chorus, every face
glows with delight and every brogan
beats sympathetic time. The music
flows out of that old battered banjo,
with its stained sheepskin and worn
catgut, ana fails life mama in the
wilderness upon ,he hearts of men,
filling them with feeling of charity for
all the world. That old tune comes
over them like sweet odors waited Up
from the erange-groves and everglades
of the south. A little dash Of one of
these old-time melodies has better and
more lasting influence on man than
the sublimest strains Mozart ever put
into his crandest symphony.

Induratcd Customs.

Some OF the induratcd customs and
practices in the Russian service, the
origin Of which has been forgotten, are
very curious. Bsmark is reported in
DR.. Bush's book AS telling about n SEN
incl continually stationed in the mid
die Of Il lawn in the summer Garden at
Petersburg, without any one knowing
Why. Strict inquiry revealed that 100
years ago the Empress Catherine had
gwen orders for the protection Of
snow-drop at that particular spot, and
Il sentinel was sent to perform the duty.
The order never having been counter
manded, he and his successors kept on
guarding the spot for century, and
long after the original occasion tor It
was forgotten. A correspondent Of the
London Times matches this story with
another. Toward the end Of her reign
the Empress Catherine discovered that
the civil list other son Paul was charged
with some thousands Of bottles Of bran
dy, though il was liquor he never
touched. The charges were traced
back to the day Of his birth, when the
nurse had sent for some brandy to
make a lotion for him. From that
time bottle OF brandy was sent, or at

w. G. Woodruff, of the Dubuque
Times, in an editorial correspondence
to his paper, written from Milwaukee,
under date of the 18th instant, relates
the result Of an interview had by him
with the Hon. Alex. Mitchell and the
Hon. J. w. Cary, the former being
President of the Milwaukee & st.
Paul Railroad Co., and the latter its
General Solicitor. The inquiries made
by Woodruff seemed to be directed to
the object the company had in their
recent purchase of the Dubuque South
western railroad. We give the fol-
lowing paragraph from Mr.. Wood
rufus letter:
1--WE are satisfied that there are pos
sibilities, not to say probabilities, in
this purchase of favor to Dubuque in
the future not yet limited at. The
construction of the revived line from
Cedar Rapids to Ottumwa ria Sigour-
ney, and thence to Kansas City, will
be a practical extension of the ID. S
W., and that enterprise is almost sure
to succeed. Dubuque should be look.
ing to her interests while this shifting
of the scenes is proceeding. Nothing
can be gained by inaction; everything
by watchfulness and energy.
