upon the invitation of Gen. Hancock. He
WAS accompanied by his secretary. They

were met by Capt. Guenther, commander
of the post, aud othe1 officers of the galri-

where they were formally welcomed by the

a Kindly L. aiser. I.

Among the numerous curious tr5tIes that
adorn the writing table ofthe sCernan Eln-
peror Is an old cavalry helmet, the special.
rse OF which is one illustrative Of his kind
ness of heart. Ever since lie assembled The
throne he has manifested atsincIiaatjon
to affix his signature to sentences Of DEATH
and, indeed, TO any 1zetasz se@.esa il
usual ne<sss Therefore, such
documents are laid before him hg tjs Min
listers Of State, he is accustomed 10 hide
them away under tlae helmct. 1t has ire
ga entity occurred that officials, anxious 10
obtain his Majesty's sanction to the pro-
nouncements Of the law, butnot venruring
te remind him Of his omission to sign these
papers, have availed themselves of his tenn
porary absence from bis study to lift the
casque and move the documents in such
sort that their edges have slightly p1otrud-
ed from under the helmets brin. In ten
cases out Of twelve, however, this hint has
proved unaVafling, for the Emperor, a8
soon as he canght sight Of the detested pa
pers peeping out from the place Of their
coneealment, has quietly pushed them back
again and foreborne ever thereafter from
making any allusion to the incident III
such cases the obnoxious documents have
been discrcetly abstracted and destroyed,
it being obvious that his Majesty would
never be induced TO sign them.

10 the choice OF a reservation many Of the
officers at Randall think the Old milestone
agency, about tWenty-four miles above
Randall, would be preferable to the Yank-
ton agency, since it is more remote from
large bands Of Indians aud in case Of emer-
gency the troops from Bennett, Sully, Hale
and Meade, could be utilized. The doctor has
been vaccinating soldiers and Indians on

periences, as the young bucks especially

III WAS THE P1sEsTDEe1ST z.
How Arthur Acknowledged His
Identity and Settled a Bet.

-----------
The mistake made by President Arthur
recently, in Baltimore, when he supposed
the applause of the audience to the per-
formers Of Patience was inteEded for
himself, has q distinguished precedent.
Many years ago, when Gen. Moreau. of
France, the petit generate, whom Napoleon
subsequently killed on the continent. was
in the United States, he was invited to a
box at a Philadelphia theatre to witness an
opera. The most popular song OF the piece
was one entitled, tsTo, morrow, aud IL was
several times encored. The gallant general
presuming that the refrain "To~morroW
was tribute ssto Moreau4,, and exeusing
the pronunciation, stepped to the front Of
his box and both gravely and politely
bowed his thanks to the audience and
artists.
This Baltimore occurrence is not the first
5aua pas, If 1t can be SO termed, l.. presi-
dent Arthur's eminent career. We recolIect
having been an eye witness to another
ago. At the spring meeting nc Ivy City
about May last, Arthur-then vice Presi-
dent-was pacing the banquet il front Of
the grand stand, field glasses athwart his
shoulders and unaceompanied. Pretty soon
we saw MIN talking earnestly to a WELL
known sporting man Of the >sb0cs y The
latter gentleman is I handsome fellow. and

struck up q conversation with Arthur, and
The two walked together up and down the
plank road for about ten minutes. The
starts began then, and they separated. The
gentleman Of the ,sboCko returned to a
party. his companions, and IN an en-
phatically Indifferent manner said:
ts'Tell, I'm all solid with the admins
tration. Did vou see me talking with my
friend Arthur?''
