TIE ALEXANDRIA OF TO-DAY.

Does anybody know that seven miles be-
low Washington, the gayest and most cosmo-
politan city in the Union, is the slowest, the
world-Alexandria, in Virginia? In former
times, when Washington was n barren waste
of avenues and o desert of park reservations,
Alexandria was thriving little seaport
that is, it was n port, but it was not any
where near the sea. In it stands Christ
Church, where Washington had pew and
slumbered peacefully on Sundays for nearly
twenty years; of which he was vestryman,
and where the Lee family always wor-
shipped. The streets have quaint names
Orinoko street, St Asaph street-all hun
dred years behind the street nomenclature
of the present day. Now it has quietly put
on its grave clothes and lain down to die
peacefully. 1t is sleepy and provincial and
pretty, and altogether incongruous in the
nineteenth century. The hustle and hurry
of Washington life is as far from it as if an
other world, instead of seven miles of terri
tory, lay between them. Georgetown, which
the Capital has finally touched with its ever
reaching arms, is an Arcadian village still. In
years gone by, when the Potomac marshes
made Washington a place of deadly
malaria, most of the distinguished persons
then in official life, especially the foreign
ministers, had their homes in Georgetown.
The resources of the town were rather prim-
tive, as what actually happened to the
British Minister when living there, in 1920,
proves. Mr. Canning, afterward Lord STRAIT
ford De Redcliffe, a cousin of the great George
Canning, was then the envoy to this country
One night, just as he was about to start for
an official entertainments at the White House,
an irremediable accident happened to his
equipage, and not a hack was to be found in
Georgetown. Nothing daunted, the pleni-
potentiary inquired if anything on wheels
could be found in Georgetown to be pressed
into the service; but the whole town could
only furnish one vehicle, and that was
hearse This was hastily brought.out and
Mr. Canning, laying himself down carefully
on his back, was driven at break-neck pace
over to the White House. When he arrived
at the door the driver brawled out: 'Make
way for the British Minister'S hearsew The
effect may be imagined but not described

"NOt long ago lady who came to criti-
else her husbands bust SAID that, although
he was advanced in years, he had rosy
complexion"
"a friend of mine rushed in here one day
and breathlessly recounted how he had seen

one of which was almost over the ear. Did
doubt his word? No, sir. 1 sat him right
down here and showed him line of inirm

He insisted that his brothers lips were so

THE FRENCH SOLDIERS.

How cOmical the French soldiers are.
Each one is fresh surprise. They are all
so very small, they look like neither boys
nor men, but like little parodies on human
nature. The biggest feature about them Is
a mustache or a sweetheart. 1t is either
the fierce mustache or the sweetheart that
appears to be the rudder to steer him before
the wind. 1t was entertaining to see these
little beings trying to throw their loving
glances up instead of down into the eyes Of
the blushing lady loves, who seem to be
leading the soldiers out to show them the
Partisan sights, like giving good little boys
a reward of merit. The ludicrOus effect is
further heightened by the frivolous little
uniform or fatigue" suit of the French
army. 1t consists of white, inflated panta-
looms, tapering down into shoes covered
by a piece of white cOnvass, n jacket con-
fined by wide belt, and small cap crown
ing the little figures, who look as if they
were all blown into their toilet with pair
of bellows. A few small men are not par
ticularly noticeable, but when you see hum
dreds of them promenading with their
girls" it makes one of the funniest sights
in Paris 1t is said that the soldiers make
up in quality what they lack in size,
and they know how to fight and make
love equally well. I suppose Napoleon
1. was responsible for these generations
of small men by killing off all the big ones
in France.-Pdris Correspondence.

TEXAS YARNS.

The crowd gathered together on mill day
at San Gabriel, Texas, were natives of
many different States, and told Jokes at the

One North Carolinian got after the half dozen
Arkansans hot and heavy. With other
yarns he told the following: "An emigrant
preacher went into the Boston mountain

four-acre corn patch, he fought his way

seem to understand his general inquiries, so
he began to particularize: "What religion is
most common around here?" Still she does
not seem to understand. "Are there many
Presbyterians around here?" he asked. Il
don't know" she said. "My man John has
hunted around here right smart for nigh

GENERAL GEORGE s. MERRILL,

ShAL GEORGS
The National Commander of the Grand
Army, whose picture we present to our read
ers to-day, was born in Methuen, Mass, in 1887,
and in 1852 went to Lawrence to serve an
apprenticeship On the Lawrence Courier.
He acquired an interest in the Lawrence
soon after, and its sole proprietor in 1860.
During his connection with the american he
was for eight years president of the Massa-
chusetts Press Association, and organized
the yearly excursion for which it has since
become famous. In August, 1861, President
Lincoln appointed the Major postmaster at
Lawrence, to which Office he has been re-
appointed every four years since, without
filing an application, and entirely without
opposition. In August, 1862, he was author
lied by the city government of Lawrence, in
company with E. T. Colby and John K. Tar
box, to raise company, under the call of
President Lincoln for 100000 more" He
telegraphed Postmaster General Blair his
resignation of the postmastership to enter
this service; the resignation was declined,
and he was granted leave of absence. In
thirty-six hours after opening his en-
listment books one hundred and twenty
men had been enrolled. Mr.. Merrill was
elected first lieutenant of the company, and
on the promotion of Captain Colby, was
made captain. His company was attached
to the Fourth Massachusetts regiment, and
sent with the Banks expedition to louisiana,
who ha of pOrt md
son and other operations in that department..
Adjutant- General Schouler, in his annual
report for 1863, especially commended Cap
tain Merrill for his coolness and bravery in
rescuing the steamer Louisiana Belle from
capture by guerrillas. He was adiutant of
the Sixth Regiment, NJ. V. NJ, from 1866 to
1869, then captain of the Fourth Battery
Light Artillery for four years, and since
then has been Major of the First Battalion
of Light Artillery. He was also well known
for years as a member of the Republican
State Central Committee, and its efficient
secretary for seven years. But to the old
soldiers he is best known by his connection
with the Grand Army of Massachusetts.
He was the first commander of Post 80, at
Lawrence, organized in 1867, and is now one
of its active members. He was Department
Commander in 1875. He has attended
twelve successive National Encampments.
He has been for several years an active
member OF the military order of the Loyal
Legion, for a time member of the council,
and at the May election was elected senior
vice-commander of the Massachusetts COM
mandery. He is President of the Massachu-
setts Militia Officers Association. Major
Merrill has been an active member of the
Masonic Order, belonging to Ph9nician
Lodge, Lawrence and to Boston Command
cry Knights Templar. In his own city he
was for five years a member of the Common
Council, and for two years its president. He
was one of the first trustees of the public
library, and for four years chairman of the
trustees of Deep Rock cemetery.
The National tribune., 1882-03-18

General Garfeld's political conduct and not
his military career that was under discussion.
There had been no occasion for the interfer-
ence of the chair during the proceedings Of
the meeting; that General GarGelds actions
were open to investigation, and that l could
not be expected to vouch for the present
standing of every officer whose conduct in
the field had called for nay commendation in
special orders or official reports, and that
many young man of high character seven
teen years ago was to-day an inmate of a
penitentiary, convicted of theft. l did not
allude to General Garfield, nor did consider
him a thief who ought to be III the peniten-
tiary but the irrepressible reporters, who
are always hunting for a sensation, tele-
graphed to the eastern papers that General
Rosecrans had denounced General Garfield
as thief who ought to be in the penitenti-
ary.7

A SAD TALE.
"Does your father knOw?"

"Does your father know?"
"He does not Thank Heaven that sor
row was spared him."
The crickets chirped under the fagstonesy
and the warm, south wind came in soft puffs
over the meadows, bearing upon its bosom
the scent of the red-topped clover and the
ox-eyed daisies, as Rupert Redingote and
Aphrodite Mcclure stood by the path that
led to the farm from the village of Rousillon,
Macoupin county, while the swallows cir
cled around in the fast-cOming twilight, Civ
ing forth now and then little sleepy twitters
as if anxious for the warmth and comfort
which their nests afforded. They were to be
married in the fall, these two-in the merry
hard cider and corn husl<ing time-and, al
though scarce three months had passed since
Rupert pressed upon her pulsing lips the
solemn betrothel kiss, Aphrodite trusted
him with perfect faith that was almost
sublime in it's passionate intensity.
$50 the old man didn't hear about my get
ting full 2" said Rupert.
"No," was the girls response, as with a
little, happy take-it-away- y-tor-ten-cents sob,
she laid her gum-flled cheek upon Rupert's
breast and twined her dimpled arms about
his neck-"i if any one had told him it would
have been a cold day for you"
"You are singing on the right key now,
Aphrodite," was Rupert's reply. "If the
terrible fact had come to his knowledge he
would part us forever. His position as
Deacon in the church would not allow him
to overlook the fault, even should his stern,
Puritan nature relent. No, darling, we must
not let him know of this sin of mine"
AS Rupert spoke buggy was seen coming
rapidly up the lane, and as it reached the
gate the horse stopped suddenly, and the
man in the vehicle came out over the ami

thud into hotbed.

OPINIONS OF THE PRESS.
NEW YORK HERALD. !

NEW YORK HERALD.
The literature of the Garfield -Rosecrans
pi~ode is growing into very respectable
Proportions. First of all there is the critical
etter to Mr. Chase, in which General Gar
ield, while chief of staff, sharply condemned
what he considered the supineness of his
friend and superior officer. Next we have
The Rosecrans interview, in which the ex-
commander of the Army of the Cumberland
expresses his astonishment at the letter and
regrets it's publication. Then follows the
remarkable denial from General Garfield to
General Rosecrans of the charges contained
in the Chase letter, the existence of which
mad been mysteriously limited at in the
opening hours of the last Presidential cam
paign. Mr.. Montgomery Blair, who was
colleague of Mr.. Chase in the Cabinet, and
Mr. Charles A. Dana who held official and
confidential relations with Mr.. Stanton, also
have made valuable contributions to the
subject.
General Rosecrans now gives an additional
chapter, which is printed on another page
Of to-day's Herald, and will be read with
keen attention. He describes the military
situation in his command at the time his
chief of staff was writing condemnatory
letters to headquarters at Washington. He
gives his reasons for the delay in his move
ments He unfolds his whole plan Of cam
paigp in the operations that led up to the
struggle for the possession of Chattanooga.
1t is the answer of Rosecrans to his critics,
civil and military, and it will be seen
from it that the "delay" which was so
severely criticised had the approval of fif-
teen out of seventeen of his general officers.
With the Rosecrans paper we print also an
interview with Colonel Rhodes, of Cleveland,
an intimate friend of General Garfield.
This gentleman has no doubt of the au-
thenticity of the Chase letter, and can see
nothing in it that should place stigma
upon Garfeld's fame. The views of Colonel
Barnett, who also was member of the staff,
are given. He comedies with Colonel Rhodes
in his opinion regarding the genuineness of
the letter to Mr.. Chase. Their views are not
Of such special importance, but they are
valuable because of the relations they held
10 General Garfield in military and civil
life, and to General Rosecrans, who probably
now knows more about his staff officers than
he did when he commanded the Army of
The Cumberland.
