father, in his enthusiasm, had devoted
to the purposes of the christening. The
sad relics of the devoted, long lost Me

many eyes moistened the clay that was
thrown over them, and to this day, the

An observant and philosophicalfriend

SO, how powerful must be the force of

THE FUN OF BEING PRESIDENT.

1t is not an enjoyable treat some
times to be the editor of paper, and
mould public opinion at so much per
mould and complimentary tickets to the
sleight-of-hand performances, but with
its care and worry, it's heartache and
apprehensions, it is more comforting OH
the whole than being President.
When we were boy, and sat in the
front row among the pale-haired boys
with checked gingham shirts at the
Sabbath school, and the teacher told us
to live uprightly and learn hundred
verses of the Scriptures each week so
that we could be President, we thought
that unruffled calm and universal ap-
probation waited upon the man who
successfully rose to be the executive of
great nation.
With years and accumulated wis
dom, however, we have changed our
mind.
Now we sit at our desk and write
burning words for the press that will
live and keep warm long after we are
turned to dust and ashes We write
heavy editorials on the pork outlook,
and sadly compose exhaustive treatises
on the chinch bug, while men in other
walks of life go out into the health-pro-
noting mountains, and catch trout and
woodticks. Our lot is not perhaps a
joyous one. We swelter through the
long July days with our suspenders
hanging in limp festoons down over our
chair, while we WELD the death-dealing
pen, but we do not want to be Presi-
dent.
Our salary is smaller, it is true, but
when we get through our work in the
middle of the night, and put on our
plug hat and spike-tail coat and steal
home through the all-pervading dark
ness, we thank our stars, as we split
the kindling and bed down the family
mule, that on the morrow, although we
may be licked by the man we wrote up
to-day, our official record cannot be at
tackled.
There is a nameless joy settles down
upon us as we retire to our simple
couch on the floor and pull the cellar
door over us to keep us warm, which
the world can neither give nor take
away.
We plod along from day to day,
slicing great words of mental pabulum
from our bulging intellect, never muir
muring nor complaining when lawyers
and physicians put on their broad-brim
chip hats and go out to the breezy can
yons and the shady glens to regain
their health.
We just plug along from day to day,
eating hard-boiled egg from one hand
while we write scathing criticism on
the sic transit gloria cucumber with the
other.
No, we do not crave the proud posi-
ton Of President, nor do we banker to
climb to an altitude where forty or fifty
millions of civilized people can dis
tinctly see whether we eat custard pie
with knife OF not.
Once in awhile, however, in the still
ness of the night, we kick the covers
off and moan in our dreams as we i'm
agine that we are President and we
wake with the cold damp sweat Tor
as the case may be, stand
ing out of every pore, only to find that
we are not President after all, by an
overwhelming majority, and we get up
and steal away to the rain-water barrel
and take a drink, and go back to
snoreless sleep. Nye

The floods in the West and Northwest
create some uneasiness in the Lower
Mississippi region, and the planters on
the banks of that river from Memphis
down to New Orleans fear that their
time will come, and the crops they
are now planting will be inundated. The
st. Louis Republican thinks that this
does not necessarily follow, and their
apprehensions may prove groundless.
1t has been observed that the worst
floods in the Lower Mississippi come
from the East instead of the West
from the waters which the Ohio, Cum
berland and Tennessee simultaneously
pour into the parent stream, particularly
when the high water in these tributaries
is accompanied by heavy local rains in
the South. The eastern tributaries of
the Lower Mississippi are not unusually
high at this time, and if the redundant
water coming dewn from the Missouri
and Upper Mississippi shall run out
without being reinforced by floods from
the Eastern streams there may not be a
serious inundation below Memphis.

bondsnen will be asked to surrender MN. ana ne
will be sentenced. The term OF imprisonment can
not exceed three years.
The charge upon which Mr.. Genet was indicted
and convicted involved the loss of only small sum
of money to the city, but 1t was considered TO DC he
charge under which bis conviction would oest DO
assured. The specific charge was that by false pre-
fences he obtained Mayor Halls signature to war
rant for 81 902 for supplies claimed to have Deen
furnished by John Mcbride Davidson for the Court
House. but which were really never delivered;
Genet was tried before Justice Daniels in Oyer and
Terminer, in December, 1873. His defence was that
Davidson had refused to furnish the mate

money in advance, but authorized him TO
collect the money for him and to indOrse his namei

fused to furnish the materials and he retained the
money to use in procuring other Court House sup
