Its custom, occasionally, gave out the
idea that American cities are not as
clean as healthful European cities, in
the following paragraph:
"The rush for Europe has begup in
earnest. The steamship comnanies
ought to pay the Police Commissioners
something for making the city SO
slskly that people cross the ocean

some Of tho col"Ted people on Middle

serious resistance, during which, the officer
had his clothes badly torn. This morning

days. Harriet Boston, Mary Wilson and
Lizzie Williams, were also arrested for
drunken and disorderly conduct, on COM

president has not materially changed
since the date Of the last official
bulletin. He complains little
of weariness and muscular Soreness, and
has once or twice manifested 4 slight ap-
prchensiOn that his recovery might leave
him inPsome way maimcd or disabled, 50
as to incapaeitate him for active physical
exercise. He said recently to ono of
his attendants: 81 wish I could
get up on my feet. would like to
see whether have any backbone eft or
not" But whatever doubt they may be in
the mind Of the president a. to the exist
ence Of his physical backbone, there is
none in tho minds Of his friends as
to his moral backbone. After ten days Of
WEAKNESS, danger, heat and suffering he
remains as brave and cheerful a. at first,
and is only restrained by his physicians
orders from talking intimately with those
about him.
The temperature Or tho presidents
room has been maintained Oday at Is de-

than the temperature Of the external air.

THE ZULU KING.


Cricwns"'s First Visit 10 Lancaster.
Kin. Cetcway". of Zulul;.lnl, made his
ti,St appearance in Lancaster on Satur-
day. lie came unannOunccd, with few at
tcndantS, and with little tquipage except
his battle chariot, his war steel, his wOrld-
renowned umbrella, and i large supply Of
tol,accu. Ills chariot attracted much at
tcmti"D, bci,,. built on the principle of the
ancient Greek cl;lriOts, with small wheels,
low body and rccctlinS back. Behind the
seat was placed an immense golden horse
shoe, and within the horseshoe was an
immense plug of tobacco, which appeared
to bc suh-lividc.l into smaller plugs, and
each smaller plug WAS also decorated with
Il horse -Sl,oe Tho dctllroned mol,arcl,
wore un crown, and few who saw him
wouhl suspect him tu ,c i native African.
lie rode right royalty, however, Through
I'LL the principal streets, his august
head being pr"trcc,cd by the immense
umbrella about which army correspond
cmtS have had so much to say. The han
die of the umbrella is thicker than 4 hoe
handle and nearly ten feet in length, while
the diameter Of the cover is more than
sufficient to sl,;ulc the entire car, iagc. 1t
is covered ali over with l,icr"glyplies in
the Zulu tongue, said to be the motto OF
the king. Tic war steed is al object of
great interest. lie is of varicgatcd col"
partly bay, partly brown, partly sorrell,
l.artIy black and partly dun. lie can go
quite u distance in 2NSi.
The king must he passiOnately fond of
tobacco, as he stopped in front of every to
lr,cc, shop i'm town. examined the contents
of the stores carefully and asked many
questions regarding the condition Of the
trade. The object of his majcsty's visit
has not bccn made public, but it is ru-
morcd in tobacco circles that he has come
to purchase the entire crop of 1880 I" have
it manufactured into horseshoe plug.
