WASHINGTON STRENGTH. writer IN
Arlington, in 1884, asked Mr.. Curtis II
Washington could, like Marshal SAKE,
break a horseshoe, and the reply he re-
ceived was, he had no doubt he could had
he tried for his hands were the largest
and strongest he had ever seen. Mr.
Curtis then gave several instances of the
following: "When Washington was a
young man, he was present on one occa-
sion as locker on at wrestling games, then
the fashion in Virginia. Tired OF the
sport, he had retired to the shade OF
tree, where he sat peruslng pamphlet,
till challenged to a bout by the hero OF
the day, and the strongest wrestler III the
state. Washington declined till, taunted
by the remark that he feared to try con-
ciusions with the gladiator, lie calmly came
forward, and without removing his coat
grappled his antagonist There was a
fierce struggle for brief space OF time,
when the champion was hurled to the
ground with such tremendous force rs to
Jar the very marrow Of his bones. Another
instance of his power was his throwing q
stone across the Rappahannoca at Fred
ericksburg- "a feat that never has beer
performed since Later in life number
of young gentlemen at Mount Vernon
were contendin. i'll the exercise Of throw
ing the bar Washington, after looking
on some time, walked forward saying
'Allow me to try, and grasping the bar
sent the iron flying through the air twerft!
feet beyond the usual limits. Still late
in his career, Washington, whose age VA
lusty winter, frosty yet kindly, observe,
three Of his workmen at Mount Nernol
vainly endeavoring to raise large stone
when, tired of witnessing their unsuccess
full attempts, he put them aside, and tax
ing it in his iron grasp, lifted it to it
place, mount d his horse and rode on"

GENERAL JACKsoN.-General Wlillam
o. Butler, one of the heroes Of the war OF
1872 and If the Mexican war, and demo
cratic candidate for ce-president on the
ticket with General Cass, now lives IN
Cnro!lton, Kentucky. He said OF Cen
ersl Jackson to writer short time ago
that he was little read In books. Il DO
not remember seeing any books at ms
house but the Bible and hymn-book, and
probably a copy Of Bunyans s Pilgrim
Prppress,' but he was an ndsfatlgable
reader of newspapers, and was thoroughly
posted in current events, and especially
in politics. While possessed OF little tech
nical learning, his common sense was
boundless. He had an intui;ive kn"wi-
edge of men, and ain influence over them
that was unlimited. Ny brother Tom
{the major who was an aid to the Gen
eral. had some words with him about
requisition for arms, and a cooiness ell, !,
sued. Some time after the battle grand
bali was given the. General at which Mrs.
Jackson, who mad just reached the city,
was present. My brother was there, OF
course, and suddenly encountered the
General, with Mrs Jackson leaning on his
arm. After salutations, the General re-
marked, in his irresistible way, Tom,
you are still in huff The latter SHOOK
his head as if negatively. We'll think
YOU are, and / won't believe different un-
till YOU kiss Ms. Jackson, which Tom
gallantly and promptly did in the presence
of the whole assembly. l knew Mrs
jackson WELL" continued the General,
."and she was one of the best women l
ever knew. Certainly kinder-hearted
creature never lived. The General was
devoted to her. 1t was interesting t. OBJ
serve him when she was in his company.
His eyes were constantly upon her, and n.
he seemed to anticipate her every wish.

carefully, and continued: "No fresh

SPOTTED TAIL This veteran Indian
chief, now lieutenant in the army, is
very proud of his position. The Deadwood
(Black Hills) Pioneer says: about SIX
weeks ago he received from Paymaster
Thornburg $500 for six months service.
He had the trader change his money into
one and two dollar bills, which made his
500 represent about bushel OF green
backs He gave nearly all his money
away to members of his tribe, retaining
merely enough 10 supply his immediate
wants.

paid, last year, the enormous sum cf
$i2 10000 for eggsimported from France
and other foreign markets, and, it is esti-
mated, about the same sum for those pro-
duced here. 1t is odd that English farm

raising eggs and poultry. 1t is only the
large farmers who pay any attention to it,
the smaller ones being content with what
they raise for their own consumption.

ANOTHER PRoJEcT.-It is stated by an
Eastern paper, that among the schemes
set on foot for the relief OF the unemploy-
ed IS one TO promote settlement on the
surplus lands OF the South. 1t is sad
that capitalists in New York, Boston and
Philadelphia are concerned in the move
ment, and have formed an association with
a paid-up capital of Sl,00O,O00, with a
view to purchasing lands and advancing
money for stock and buildings. Each
settler sent out by the company is to re-
ceive 100 acres of land and the necessary
advances for beginning cultivation, exc
cutting mortgage to secure repayment
Generals Rosecrans and Gilmore are men,
TONED as prime movers in the project,
and efforts are being made to secure the
services of Generals Beauregard and I'M
boden as its agents.
