An Old SOldier.S Talk.
[Chicago Times Interview with Gen. John
Corse

Corse
Gen. j. NJ. Corse, who for year past
has lived in New York, is in the city on
his way east from Colorado. Gen. Corse
is known to be upon very friendly terms
with S. J. Tilden; and with view to
learning how nearly he. knew what the
Presidential prospect looked like as seen
through Mr.. Tilden's spectacles, a re-
porter for the Times called upon him at
the Palmer House on yesterday after
noon.
"Iknow very little," said the general,
when apprised of the object of the call,
81 know very little of how the case
stands now. Ihave been in the West the
last two or three months, and I've seen
very few newspapers"
"At least you know what the state of
things was when you left New YorkT'
eyes. MIR. Tilden was feeling very
confident of the nomination next year.
There's no doubt he can carry New York
in the Convention if he wants to-"
"What is the general feeling Of the
Eastern Democracy toward him%
"Of that Pm hardly prepared to speak,
though in every case so far as know it
is favorable"
"You have heard of the outbreak on
Mr.. Fields part, haven't you"
certainly. But l don't think there's
anything in it. The Governor has not
compromised himself, Pm confident. Mr..
Field is an old man, and ugly. The truth
of the matter, as l think, is that Mr..
Field is piqued because Mr.. Tilden sold
his stock and invested in the correspond
ing enterprise"
ITO what enterprises do you refer?
"To the elevated railways. There
were two.elevated railway companies
the Metropolitan and the New York
Mr.. Tiden had stock in the one that was
controlled by Mr.. Field. The stock went
tup very high, and Mr.. Tilden sold
out at handsome profit. The
other stock was low, and he
bought it. The reason why he did this
was that he knew the two corporations
were coming together and that after theil
consolidation stock in one would have al
equal value with stock in the other. Con
sequently, being a good business man, he
sold hig and bought low. When Mr.
Field heard of it, he got mad. CUES
that is all there is to it."
"Then what Mr. Field says has ne
no political signifcance?"
81 can't see how it has any,"
'1s there any movement toward an or
ganized effort in Mr.. Tilden's behal
among the New York Democrats"
"No, nothing that you could call al
organized movement has been started
that | know Of"
"1s Mr.. Tilden himself making any ef
forts looking in that direction?
"No. Mr.. Tilden is confident that h
will be nominated, but he feels that tn
nomination ought to and will come t.

The BibliOtheque NatiOnale.
[The Athenaum.


In her Bibliotheque Rationale, Paris
possesses collection of printed books and
manuscripts more extensive and more
valuable than that existing in any other
capital in Europe or elsewhere. 1t is
probably, however, not too much to say
that this magnificent library is worse
housed, comparatively at least, than any
other of anything like the same import
ance. The buildings which contain it
are badly and inconveniently arranged
internally, while the exterior is wholly
without pretensions to dignity or beauty
of any sort. In such a capital, with SO
many beautiful buildings, it is not toe
much to say they are mean when thell
purpose is considered. They are also sit,
uated between two narrow streets, and
part of them is in such close proximity
to other private buildings as to be in con
slant danger from fire; so much so that
the Chamber was asked some time ago tt
vote a very considerable sum to pull
down a large portion of the Rue Viviennt
to isolate the library and so obviate thi'
danger.

Making Phrases.
[Chambers' Journal

lSuouuSis vouihA'l
The French have a great tendency to
cherish sayings and phrases which were
uttered, or are believed to have been
uttered, by celebrated men. This prone.
ness is due in part to pardonable kind
of national vanity, and in part to GER
tain fitness in the French language to
adapt itself to brief, telling, epigrammatic
sentences and phrases. Multitudes Of
such examples are to be met with, found
on sober scrutiny to lack verification
nevertheless they live, and seem likely to
live in spite of criticism. ola France est
assez richie pour payer sa gloire," is attri-
buted to Guizot, the statesman, when he
signed treaty of peace with vanquished
power without asking for money in
demnity.
France has truly shown herself, in re-
cent years, to be rich enough to pay for
defeat if not for glory; but the question
is whether Guizot uttered the words at
tributed to him-words which brought
upon him a taunt for boastfulness by the
Opposition. 1t has been shown that the
phrase was put in his mouth by French
iournalist-in fact, downright inven,
ton. "Le Garde meurt, ct ne Sc rend
pasw said to have been exclaimed by
Gen. Cambronne, has, in like manner,
been traced to Partisan journalist; yet
the French will doubtless continue to be,
lieve that the General, in relation to the
condition of the famous Imperial Guard
at critical moment, heroically declared
that the Guard would die rather than
surrender.

Ex-Governor DeWey's Misfortune.


A gentleman in this city has received a
letter from personal, but not political,
friend of Governor Dewey, in which he
says: II suppose you have seen the
newspaper accounts of the wreck OF Gov.
Dewey's fortune. 1t is the old, old story
The panic of 1873 caught him with too
much land and, under our ruinous usury
rates, too big an interest account to be
realized from unimproved property. In
this way the poor gentleman was
handicapped for many years, and l know
he has struggled most earnestly and
persistently to weather the dreadful
storm that finally overwhelmed him.
II understand the Governors affairs
we'll. and know more than perhaps it
would be judicious to write, and for the
present will only conjure you and his
other many friends to give him the bene-
fit of their patience and await further
developments. Governor Dewey has
furnished means to meet all demands
that had accrued to secure family sup.
plies, and I feel great confidence in his
being able ultimately to at least save
Mrs. Eastman from the ruin that has
been predicted for her. Both Of hi:
children have been provided with paying
positions If the poor man can have
some mercy and fair play shown him, he
will ultimately come out all right, anc
be on his feet again. Nothing can bf
made by pushing him. have knowr
Governor Dewey for twenty-five years
and dealt thousands of dollars with him
and have never seen the first evidence o
crookedness in him, and believe him al
honest but unfortunate man." The fore
going was not intended for the publi
eve, and is from one of the most con
frmed Republicans in the State.

Detective Duffy.

fhe Board of Police Commissioners held
. meeting last evening to investigate the
charges preferred by Coroner Carrick
against Detective Duffy, as to his peculiar
eonduct in the Fifth-street infanticide case,
in which woman named Julia Koehler, of
o Hopkins street. figured as the alleged
ehild-murderess. The case has already
been made public.
The Coroner brought charges that Duffy
vas not doing his duty, and that he was
tying to aid the guilty parties to evade
prosecution. DR.. Carriek, his clerk and
hrs. Parvis were examined, and it seems
that the charges against Duffy were sub
SGantiated.
The Coroner nevertheless complains that
he had not a fair chance of getting in all ms
testimony and that his witnesses were only
SLOWED to answer such questions as were
proposed by Duffy's counsel.
The Board has withheld its decision in
the case.

incompatible "Glenn's Sulphur Soap" ex
cusively for about four years; also have
recommended 1t to very many persons, and

YOU claim for it. All to whom | have re-
commended it say, as well as myself, that
1t deserves its established reputation as the
best and most etficacious Sulphur Soap that
can be used for all skin cleansing, as we'll
as toilet purposes. Some unprincipled
drug store keepers have endeavored to sub
stitute other kinds of Sulphur Soap for
Thanksgiving they were "just as good,
but having myself tried other kinds, lind
none are so good or so beneficial as the
