wassingtsn's Birth day.

Though there have been NO genors'
observations Of Wsshington's birthday,
it is evident that there is agrowins
reverence for the man who it seems is
to stand forever the first in the
hearts Of his countrymen. Born enc
hundred and forty-eight years ago yes
terdsy, and dying over eighty yesrs
ago, his name Is a. familiar and his
fame as dear to every true American as
as they ever were. The lines OF his
grand character and illustrious lie give
no sisDs Of fading ont. The name Of
Washington to-day stands in the bold
relief that has ever characterized him.
Time dims not the lustrs Of his ashiev-
ments, and as years roll on he still
tswsrs up the lofty type Of great pa
tricts, great soldiers, great stateansn,
great rulers and great nen. America
has produced her own raos Of great men,
but it was Washington, who like a
towering Colossus, bridgsd the epoch
which marked the translation Of Bng.
lands feeble colonies into the Great
Republic of the Western World, and he
stands there forever in his unspproach-
ID mAjssty, commanding the reverent
homage, not only Of the millions oil
America, but of all men throughout
he civilized world who honor lofty pa
riotism and true human greatness. |
For people made up OF all nations to
to pay this annual tribute to
nis memory is something remarkable
II history, and we are glad to Sos this
incers reverence for him growing with
very year.

dollars to the widow Of the gallant
Custer who was slain by the Indians,
yet 1t is seriously proposed to reinstate
General Porter, who failod to do his
duty in the hour Of battle, and allow
him soma s75, 200 as back pay. If the
latter proposition shall be defeated il
will only be done through the opposi-
ton Of the Republicans, as Porter seems
to have the support Of every one who
sympathized with treason when the ex-
is:ence OF the government was upper
illed.
It will be distinctly remembered by
many Of our readers that the Democrats
at the late session Of Congress proposed
to place JEFF. Davis on the pension roll
as q Mexican veteran which would
have been rewarding disloyalty, and
had it not been for the united opposi- !
ton Of the Republicans aided by al
very small fraction OF the Democratic
party, the bill would have passed. The
animus Of the Democrats is fully shown
ia these actions. They would sooner
give thousands If dollars to ous of
doubtful loyalty in the hour OF danger

A Stray Billet oux.

Three ministers sat in the pulpit OF
an East Liberty church on Sunday
evening. A rising young artist who
has a comfortable studio-if studios are
ever contradiction a street running
from Water to Liberty-who is one Of
the workers in said church, walked
bravely to the pulpit before service and
gave one of the ministers a notice to
read before benediction. The services
were about being closed, when the
young artist again went forward and
reminded the minister that he must not
forget the notice of the temperance
meeting down town. The minister
begged pardon for his remissness, took
the slip of paper from his vest pocket,
read it, looked dazed, rubbed his eyes,
then smiled. He passed the note to a
brother minister. He smiled. Then
passed it to the other minister, and he
smiled. Then all smiled. Then No. l
remarked that he would like to speak to
the young artist. The latter advanced
to the pulpit, received the notice,
looked at it, colored very red, and
looked as though he would like to jump
through the window. He had given
the pastor a notice of temperance
meeting which read something like
this:
DEAR JOHN-I am so sorry can't
let you come to see me as frequently as
usual, but papa and mamma think I
should not receive even my very dear
friends during the Lenten season. It's
awfully disagreeable, if not positively
cruel; but then you know we Episco-
palians can't 60 back on Lent. I shall
see you oftener than usual, I hope,
when the holy season is gone where the
woodbine twineth. Yours with friend
ship. --

give up the contract, as he
grasped one in each hand and beat
them together until the life was ham,
mered nearly out of them. Many other
tales are told of his extraordinary
strength. and there can be no doubt
that, in his particular specially, he is
unrivaled, and, indeed, lusus nature,
when the peculiarities of his physical
makeup" and his almost fimitless
power are considered. He states
that his father could strike a blow
equal in power to 1000 pounds;
so that his strength seems a
direct inheritance. Cardela has not
much education and an imperfect knowl-
edge of English. He dislikes to show
his strength and fails to realize his own
value. II he were to give public exhib-
itions Of his wonderful powers he would
doubtless be recognized and acknowl-
edged to be the most powerful man in

Litig alton About . Pint Of Cherries.

A case was tried in Judge Lindley's
Court yesterday, says the St. Louis
Globe Democrat, which aptly illustrates
the beauties of litigation and the weak
ness of human nature. One day last
summer Mr.. J. ,Vertheimer, while on
his way to his axle-grease factory, stop
ped in front OF fruit stand, tempted by
the luscious appearance of pile of ripe
cherries lying on table. He asked tho
young man in attendance If the cherries
were sweet, and, on being invited to
try them, he tasted few, inquired the
price, and finally ordered ten cents
worth. The boy emptied q pint of the
fruit into paper bag and handed it to
Mr.. Wertheimer. The latter looked
into the bag, and thinking the measure
was short demanded . remeasurement,
and refused to take the cherries. The
Young man resented this, and getting
hold Ut the umbrella Of the customer
broke. it over his head. Mr.. w. called
upon q policeman and the cherry ven
der was arrested, but escaped punish
ment because Mr.. w. could not spare
the time to appear against him. The
owner Of the stand, Mr.. Thomas Nc
Evilly, thereupon instituted . suit
against MIR. Werthcimer for the sum Of
fifteen cents-ten cents for the pint OF
cherries, and five cents for the cherries
consumed in the process of tasting.
The trial came of before Justice Null.
lery, and judgment for ten cents was
rendered against Mr.. w. The latter ap-
pealed to the Circuit Court, and in the
trial yesterday swore that he had eaten
only two Of the cherries, and refused to
pay for the pint because he believed the
measure was not full. The jury gave q
verdict for the plaintiff for ten cents.
The costs amount to about fifty dollars,
and the fses OF the lawyers will be q

Arrest Of "Gentleman JO."

BALTIMORE, Nd, March "A.
This afternoon James Gayler, Gen.
raj Superintendent of the city delivery
in the New York Post-ofice, with the
aid of a detective, arrested Eugene
Fairfax Williamson, in this city, on the
charge of having been the originator of
the late annoyance to the Rev. DR..
Morgan Dix and others of New York,
by writing anonymous letters and send
ing persons to their houses and places
Of business. When arrested William
son confessed that he was the au-
thor of the letters and postal cards.
He states that he arrived in New
York about the middle of February and
remained there about q week, during
which the first annoying letters were
written. He again went to New York
on the 14th of March, and remained q
week, when he wrote and mailed Of
fensive letters and cards. On both oc-
casions he stopped at the Windsor Ho-
tel, and registered his proper name and
residence, Pittsburgh. He says he does
not know. what prompted him, as
neither DR.. Dix nor any others annoyed
ever injured him. When he found, ON
u1S D0COuU VlSlL 70 NOW xOIk, inc IN.
jury he had done on the first visit, he
felt badly about it, and wrote the letter
from the Fifth Avenue Hotel to DR.. Dix,
which he afterward sent to the
New York Tribune, hoping it
would prevent people from calling at
DR.. Dix's house. He says he did not
intend to extort money from DR.. Dix
or any othef person, and did not answer
the personal In the Herald in reply to
one Of his letters. The accused was
taken ON to New York tonight, hav-
ing expressed his willingness to 20
without q formal requisition. William
son is single man, age about forty,
and says he. is native of Baltimore.
Here arrived here Friday night last,
and went to . private residence where
he was acquainted, and was found
there when arrested. He was traced
from the Windsor Hotel by detectives
by following his baggage, and many
places were visited where baggage had
been left before Williamson's trunk
was found and his stopping place dis.
covered.

The Strong Man Of Nevada.

The strongest man in the world at
the present time, so far as we are able
to learn, now lives in Reno, Washoe
County, New. Areporter recently wit
messed the astonishing feats of this re-
markable man, and was fully satisfied
by what he saw, that he is really all
that has been claimed for him. His
name is Angelo Cardela, an Italian;
aged thirty-eight years; stature, five
feet ten inches; weight, one hundred
and ninety pounds: occupation, labor
er; habits temperate, though he has
no scruples against the moderate use of
malt liquors and the light wines of this
country. In personal appearance he is
not remarkable; merely q good-natured
looking son of Italia, with . broad,
heavy face; noble development of
chest and shoulders, and large, fleshy
hands. His strength was born with
him, for he has had no athletic training.
When stripped to the buff," however,
a marked popularity in his spinal col
umn is at once APPARENT. His backbone
is. we might say, double-jointed, with
the vertebral calculations unusually
large and prominent. Though he is not
man Of unusual size. his spinal column
is double the ordinary width and his
other bones and joints seem made on .
similar large and generous scale. After
some solicitation, he finally consented
to favor the reporter with an exhibition
of strength, which proved to be such an
astonishing exhibition of lifting power
as scarcely to be believed. The report
or, whose weight is one hundred and
fifty pounds, stood with one foot on the
floor and arms outstretching, his hands
being lightly grasped by two friends,
one on each side, to preserve the bal
ance of his body. This slight assist
ance, however had no tendency to raise
his body, being merely to keep him
from topping over. Cardela then
stopped down and placed the third fin
ger Of his right hand under the hollow
Of the reporters foot upon which he was
balancing. and with no perceptible
effort raised the reporter to. .
height of four feet, and deposited him,
standing, on table near at hand. This
feat he repeated, and then grasped the
reporters ankles with both hands,
raised him above his head, and gently
lowered him to the table in . sitting
posture. Cardela had q pipe in his
mouth while lifting. and continued
smoking, as much as to say, . Per BAG
cho, tits nothing; way we have in our
countryr' On q former occasion he
raised Mr.. Lawson, gentleman con-
nected with the editorial staff OF the
Reno Gazette, in similar way. with one
finger. carried him across . room and
left him standing on q table. He has
also lifted by the same plan, using only
his third finger (Which seems to be his
most reliable one) several Reno heavy
weights, one weighing over 200 pounds.
He can strike blow with his fist with
power Of 500 pounds, measured on .
