A SIGNIFICANT BACKDoWN.

feldt, the agent Of the Government sen
on fir m Washington to hear the testi-
mnny in the investigation of the U. s
Mint in this city, took his seat in one o
the rooms in the Mint building, and
signified his readiness to consider such
charges as would be submitted and heal
testimony in relation t. them. The
charges, accompanied by the atfidavits
Of Messrs. Spargo, Able and Cheney,
We're presented, and &. N. Harris, a
journalist in this city, appeared on be-
half of the prosecution. Accompanying
the affidavits were files of the Bee, a
Democratic newspaper, recently started
in Carson, containing the charges and
comments thereon. The publisher of
the paper was also present, rs were the
three leading compIainants. Mr.. Harris
first move on the part of the prosecution
was u demand that the inves' igation
+.ke place IN the U. S. District Court
rom. This motion was denied on the
grounds that the acts charged upon the
defendants did not constitute a criminal
ofense, but were Irregularities and
misconduct which came more under the
hn,d Of breaches of trust, or mis-
demeanors. The investigation had
been ordered to be made in the Mint
a, customary in such eases. The prose-
.tien filed protest to this ruling,
waereupon Mr.. Harris. who during
the course of his remarks did not have
the courtesy to arise to his feet on adj
dressing Mr.. Eek feldt, said that he did
not recognize him rs properly author
ICED person to conduct such an investi-
CATION, and that the prosecution should
simply withdraw until proper and
competent commission could be ap-
pointed and sent out from Washington
t. try the case. A recess was then
taken to enable Mr.. Harris to make |
. ,me corr CT ms in his demurrer. por.
ton of this demurrer shows plainly the |
object sought to he obtained by the i
prosecution. 1t reads l." that the charges
heretofore made shall remain in fill
force pending the arrival Of the Com
missioner, etc."
For months the Democratic papers
have been charging all sorts Of irregu-
aarities in the Mint. The parties in
VOWED demanded an immediate inves-
ligation, and representative of the
Mint Department has been sent on
from Washington to investigate the
cage. But it is not the intention Of the
prosacu; ion to have this case settled be-
fore the campaign is over. When
Harris asked for change of venue, he
then recognized the authority of the
from Washington. This
motion being denied-as he knew per
fectly we'll it would be-he rettifogged
his case, and knowing that he could not
sustain the charges, wants the matter
warm for Democratic uses during the
campaign. His attempt to bully the
Court was total failure, and when
he showed boorish disrespect for its
authority by keeping his seat while adj
dressing remarks to it, the gentlemanIy
treatment he received in return would
have Inundated most men in the same
situation.

Lay Of the Henpecked Husband.

o, her hair ia dark as the midnight wave,
And her eye Is like kindling fire,
And her VOICE is sweet as the spirit voice
That chords with q seraphs Tyre.
But her nails are sharp as n toastlng fork,
And her arms as strong rs u bears,
She pulled my hair and she gouged my eye,
And she kicked me down tho stairs
I've got me an eye that Ia made OF glass
And I've got mo "A wig that's new.
The wig Is frizzled with corkGrew curls
And the eye is clouded blue.
She may shake her knuckles full In my face,
And put tho lamp TO my beard,
And hold the broomstick over my head,
But IN not at all afeard
For I've bound her over TO keep the peace,
And I've bought me a crab-tree cane
The policeman will come and the justice, too
III she NEEDLES with me again.

And my eye was a month in the patch,

Would light such a birthstone match.

Anendota of Wahster.

! An admirable illustration Of the tact
and delicacy which must be used to sue
cesssully deal with boys is given in the
following anecdote published in the Ad-
Vdnce:
When Daniel Webster's father found
tnat his son was not robust enough to
make successful farmer, he sent him
to Exeter topreparefor college, andfound
home for him, among number of
other students, in the family of "Old
Squire Clifford" as we of younger
generation have always heard him called.
Daniel had up to this time led only the
secular life of country farmers boy,
and though the New Hampshire farmers
have sent out many heroes, as firm and
true as the granite rocks in the pasture,
there cannot be among the hard and
homely work which such life implies
the little tinenesses of manner which
good society demands.
Daniel was one Of these diamonds of
the first water, but was still in the rough.
and needed some cutting and polishing
to tit him to shine in the great world in
which hewas to figure so conspicuously.
None saw this more clearly than the
sensible old Squire. The boy had one
habit at table of which the squire saw it
would be kindness to cure him.
When not using his knife and fork he
was accustomed to hold them upright in
his fists, on either side of his plate.
Daniel was q bashful boy of very deli
cate feelings, and the Squire feared to
wound him by Speaking to him directly
on the subject
So he called aside one of the other
students with whom he had been longer
acquainted, and told him his dilemma
snow" said he, ~ want you this
noon at the table, to hold up your knife
and fork as Daniel does. | will speak to
you about it, and we will see if the boy
does not take hint for HIMSELF
The young man consented to be the
scape-goat for his fellow-student, and
several times during the meal planted
his fists on the table, with his knife and
fork as straight as if he had received or
ders to present arms.
The Squire drew his attention to his
position, courteously begged his pardon
for speaking of tho matter, and added u
few kind words on the importance Of
young men correcting such little habits
before going out into the world.
The student thanked him for his inter-
est and advice, and promised reform,
and Daniels knife and fork were never
from that day seen elevated on the table.
When, after q vacation, Daniels
father brought the lad for second term
TO Exeter, he put in his saddle-bags a
good fat turkey from the Franklin farm,
which he gave to the Squire as an ex.
preston Of his gratitude for Daniels i'm.
proved manners.

Patti.

But whom have we herep Blthely
tripping by the side of tall and gallant
escort appeared at the portal of the no.
tel little lady who hesitated Il moment
at the step of n coupe, shrugged her
shoulders, said: 'Oh, come along, let's
walk" and suited the action to the
word. Far be it for any masculine pen
to attempt TO describe Adelina PATHS
costume. All that can be recalled is q
red feather, dark hat, sealskin robe
with different fur on the border, yellow
ish gloves, and the daintiest boots, with
real heels. She was in happy temper.
Her hair was coal black, her eyes shono
with health and contentment, and she
did not profane the sunshine by wear
ing diamonds in her ears on the street
and in the morning. A walk on Fifth
avenue to-day means something differ
ent to Patti, the diva, from scampor
down Blocker street thirty years ago 70
Adelina, the child of poor and strug-
Cling parents. Then she had nothing
but the germ Of her wonderful powers.
To-day she has estates, villas, castle,
100000 in diamonds alone, wealth that
is computed in seven figures, and voice
matchless this side Of the gates of pearl.
Then calico dresses, jet black braids of
hair upon her back, flashing eyes, andA
gypsy skin, were the possessions of one
OF a 'lot of children" To-day she walks
or drives, Us suits her within, oxacts trib-
u,es from kings, and has the world Of
art and genius ut her feet. But however
this may be, she walked down the ave-
nue. looking at the houses, gazing at the
people, explaining to her companion,
and absolutely unknown to any whom
she met for blocks and blocks. --Nep
