Brave Deeds.

Johnny Higgins was polishing a
mans shoes in front of EglestOn's iron
warehouse, on South street New York,
across the way from the basin south of
Roosevelt street pier. He heard the
splash of a body falling in the water,
and he saw a constantly growing thrOng
of men along the string piece of the
dock, gesticulating and shOu ting.
'.Hold ON said Johnny to the man
whose shoes he was backing. "Pll run
across and see what that is"
He saw little child sink and rise
again in the muddy water. He looked
at the faces of the helpless men and
boys along the string-piece, and then
he threw off his coat and leaped into
the basin. The child was nearly dead
from fright and exhaustion when John-
ny seized him and swan for some dis
tant logs. Yet the child unconsciOusly
crippled him by its struggles. The logs
were reached, and Johnny clambered
back to the street, while a man in "a
rOw-boat took the child to the next
pier. Both the boys then went into
the cabin of tug-boat, stripped, and
dried themselves and their clothing.
The companions of the child ran away
and returned with the mother of the
rescued child, who embraced the dar-
ing boOtblack, and offered him So,
which she said was all she had. johnny
refused to take the money.
81 didn't take the money!" said he,
"because l see that the woman couldn't
afford to part with it. 1 was big fool
not to ask her name. They called the
boy Willie, and heard that he came
way from the Bowery. He had short
trsusers, a white waist, and light hat
with black band. No; it wasn't SO
very cold until got out of the water.
You see, the men were a-hunting up
little bits of ropes what wasn't no good
for to throw to the boy, and the boy
was a-drowning. That's why l went
in for him."
Johnny Higgins is regular attend
ant at the Vandewater street night
school, and the principal and teacher
both speak highly of him. He is IA
years old.

Yesterday an APPEAL reporter saw a mum
Der of Washoe Indians, in an old wood shed
working away at the 1851 IA puzzle. Then
idea is, that you simply shove the blocks
around for amusement. About half OF the
blocks we're upside down and with the blank
sides up, they appeared to derive as much
amusement from the puzzle as any other way.
The Indians show IA Dre sense than the whites
in the manner of playing this remarkable
game.
The political eutcasts who are just now
clamoring for chance to vote at the Repub-
lican primaries had better go and take a hand
in the Democratic primaries. They voted
with the Bourbons last year, and it Can hardly
be possible that they will be refused admit
lance at their next primaries.

FRESHMEN, READ THIS.

Garfield was one Of IA nays against l04
yeas, in the Fortieth congress, to vote
against the following resolution, on March
s, 1867:
Resolved, That this house extends its
sympathy to the people Of Ireland in their
struggle for constitutional liberty
Again, April II, 1871;
Whereas, The prolonged incarceration
in the prisons of the Dominion Of Canada
of persons accused Of violating the neu-
trality laws is q source Of irritation to q
large number Of American citizens; there
fore,
Resolved That the president Of the
United States be respectfully requested to
have the cases of such persons presented
before a joint high commission, to the end
that their release may be effected.
James A. Garfield objected, and voted
against the passage OF this most just anc
harmless resolution looking to the release
of certain American citizens who had beer
arrested as Fenians and confined in Ca
madam dungeons for more than five years

one, believe that the Republican party has
had its day of usefulness, and we should
regard continuation of its power as
dangerous. And when an opposing party
presents good men to I'll the same positions,
no harm can come to the government by

greatest confidence Of the man whom
the Democrats have placed at the head
of their ticket, for as boys we played
together, and as men we fought together
on the same battlefelds, shared the pr.
vations of campaign in aforeign country, and
have yet to learn of one solitary act of dis
honor charged to Winfield Scott Hancock.
With such man at the head of our gov
eminent we have nothing to fear. The
purity Of his character, his intelligence,
his patriotism, all admonish me that he is
the right man in the right place Hence |
say TO you that my humble influence will
be cast for Gen. Winfield S. Hancock

THE CAMPAIGN OPENED.

The Illinois Democrats are terribly II
alnest in this campaign. Their enthusi
asm having been aroused by the nomina
tlon OF a superb national ticket and an If
reproachable state ticket, both strong
before the people, and believing thai
issue affecting the structure and purity
OF a free representative government
are at stake, they feel that with proper eff
forts the state cen be redeemed thi:
year to the Democracy. 1t is now
certain that the proper efforts have been
are now, and will be put forth. Never
before was the party organization at this
period of campaign so thorough and ei-
fective, and telling work will be accom-
plish by it. Meanwhile the agency OF the
stump will not be neglected. Ar
rangements have already been made for
speaking all over the state during the
month of September, the prin-
cipal speakers being Hon. Ly-
man Trumtull, the candidate
for governor, General Lewis B. Parsons,
the candidate for Acknowledgements,
Hon. John II. Oberly, the candidate for
secretary of state, and ex-congessman
James c. Robinson, OF Springfield. The
campaign was formally opened at Belle
vile on Monday by Hon. Lyman Trum-
bull, who reviewed the issues between the
parties with wondrous perspicuity and IL
resistable logic. The speech proved that
when the Democracy Of Illinois chose Mr.
Trumbull for their standard bearer they
selected not only man Of spotless recor.
and personal worth, but one also who has
the ability to advocate their cause with in
viIcible force.
