One of the finest and most substantial pieces
of work ever turned of in this city by any
painters was the Resting and gold leafing Of
the eagle that surmounts this Office. The
work was done by the firm Of Grant & Ste

and over ten feet from tip to tip. The leaf is
pure gold laid on in double layer, employ
ing a little less than go worth. Messrs.
Grant 4 Stevens in ornamental and artistic
work are hard TO excel and their bills are
very moderate.

Henry Bergh's Methods.

In a paper, by Mr.. G. c. Buel, in
Scribner for April, on Henry Bergh and
his Work. occurs this passage regarding
his methods Of enforcing the laws against
cruelty:
Moral suasion and a resolute bea.ing
are Henry Bergh's most potent auxili-
aries. Only rarely has he been forced to
use his muscular strength to defend him
self. One winters day he met two large
men comfortably seated ON a ton of coal,
with one horse s,raining to drag the cart
through the snow. He ordered them to
get down, and after an alteration pulled
them down. At another time he stood
ut the southwest corner Of Washington
square, inspecting the horses OF the
Seventh Avenue Railroad. Several weak
and lame horses were ordered to be sent
to the stables, and blockade of over
loaded cars soon cnsued. A loafer on
car platform, annoyed at the dely, be-
gan to curse Mr.. Bergh, who atood on the
curb-stone three feet distant, turning a
deaf ear till the spectators began to urge
the bully on. Then, losing his patience,
he seized the reins and suspended the
movement of the car until the order was
complied with. This IS one of his
'curb- stone" speeches, often used with
effect: 'Now, gentlemen, consider
that you are American citizens living
in republic. You make your own
laws; no despot makes them for you.
And appeal to your sense of justice and
your patriotism, oughtn't you to respect
what you yourselves have made2" Once,
Mr.. Bsrgh ordered the ignorant foreman
OF gang Of gas-pipe layers to fill up one
half of trench they had dug directly
across crowded Greenwich street, even
under the railway track. Tho man gave
surly refusal which would have caused
his arrest had not a stranger stepped out
CT the crowd and said:
"Mlke, you better do what that man
tells you, for he's the law and the gospel
in this city,
"The law and the gospel is it, then9"
replied Mike, surveying Mr.. Bergh from
head to foot ''Well, lie don't look bit
like it,"
"No matter. but he is," enforced the
stranger, "and if you can take friends
advice, you will fill up that trench"
And the trench was filled.
1t is compliment to Henry Bergh's
tact and moderation in the use of his
great authority, that he has won the re-
spect OF most of the drivers of the city;
these people may frequently be seen lift.

MURDER AND SUICIDE.

A terrible double tragedy occurred at
Clifford, a small station on the Iowa Central
railroad on the 7th inst. John Bell, station
agent, 10 years old, deliberately shot Miss
Robbins, his lady friend, through the heart
twice aud then telegraphed for the railroad
officials to send another operator up as he
was going to kill himself. Shortly after he
fired two shots into his abdomen and Is now
