Let the warriors who fought with tom
CUES and offices at home raise their chat
ter in vain! 1t was not they! This
fellowship of the brave in patriotic duty
then saved the Republic to men, and
shall be its safe foundation forever!
Still more pertinent to the day was it
to recall his entrance on the field of
| national politics. The vicious party
system bound the people and fettered
their free choice. Squirting the power
of the caucus, he burst its bonds of false
| cohesion as mass of cobweb. and won
the people overwhelmingly by direct,
open war. We should emulate him to-
day, and recruit the hosts from those
| who would fight for right because it was
right.
Fill up, then, gentlemen, brimming
cup to the glorious memory of Andrew
Jackson. With Joy all good men may
drink it throughout the reunited Nation.
Drink 10 the glories of the past, the
hopes of coming times. And while this
government bears the ark of liberty
down the ages, green grow the laurels on
thu hero's grave, and sweetly rest his
sleep. Abide with us forever the alert
and fearless courage. the open, simple,
honest, and pure patriotic love of Old
Hickory.
Mr.. Villas was cheered when introduce
ed, loudly applauded at every pause he
made in his address. and was again and
again cheered at the conclusion.

THURSDAY, MARCH %. 1882.
GENERAL NEWS.

| WASHINGTON, March 16. - Register
Bruce received information from friends
in Mississippi that, although the Govern
ment is furnishing assistance as rapidly
as possible, it does not meet the needs.
The great difficulty is to obtain small
boats to explore the interior counties
where people are entirely cut off by the
floods. Every day word is received of
additional death from exposure and star
walton.
ST. Louis, March 16.-The United
States steamer Gen. Barnard, which was
ordered here from Keokuk, Ia, day be-
tore yesterday, will arrive to morrow.
Two hundred thousand rations will be
put aboard her at once and she will pro-
coed to Helena, Ark, where one half of
her cargo will be landed and the remain
der taken to Vicksburg. At these points
the rations will be divided into small
amounts and distributed to the various
localities where they are needed. The
Barnard will return to this city and after
taking on board similar cargo again
proceed to the flooded districts.
SOUTH BETHLEHEM, Pa, March &c.
Up to 3 o'clock to day there have been
six deaths and number of new cases of
smallpox reported. The exact number
of cases could not be ascertained, but
will probably reach $50. tbs said that
the authorities have refused to make
known the condition of the disease an &C
count of the publicity given such news
by the newspapers. There is no doubt
whatever that the disease is on the in
crease. The Bishop Thorp School, in
Bethlehem proper, is not closed. but the
attendance is very small. As yet there
have been no cases reported in the latter
place.
LONDON, March 16.-A dispatch from
Vienna says it is reported on undoubted
authority that the Gar and the Nihilist
leaders have come to an understanding.
The Gar is to extend clemency to the
Nihilists now under arrest, prevent the
death penalty where pronounced, and
Tighten the sentences of exile and i'm
prisonment. The Nihilists guarantee a
cessation of efforts against the Cars life.
The Gar is already moving about with
out the usual safeguards and has aban-
doned his seclusion.
A reliable correspondent telegraphs
from st. Petersburg that last night Off
GERS of club in st. Petersburg gave
reception to Skobeleff for the purpose of
giving him opportunity to make formal
statement of the relations of the Gar re-
garding his Paris speech. Skobeleff, re-
plying to an address of welcome, pur-
posely worded to give him excuse, said
he meant every word of the Paris speech,
and at the time was prepared for the
consequences. He had an interview with
the Gar since his return. The Gar ap-
proved the whole speech, and advised
against either withdrawing it or explain
ing it away. Skobeleff, in conclusion
intimated the Gear assured him the only
reason why he did not openly approve
the speech was because Russia at present
depended upon Germany in diplomatic
relations which it would be unwise to
rupture now.

A SNAKE DEALERS EXPER-
IENCE.

To get snake out of bottle is ted
ious job; in whatever position it is turned
the head will be direct upward, so that
the only way to induce him to come out
is to place the bottle upright or nearly
so; even then the head is withdrawn on
| the slightest alarm and the position is by
no means favorable to its transference
to box. If the door or opening of the
latter will admit it, the best plan is to
put the bottle uncorked into the box,
and let the snake crawl out at his leisure,
first "chocking off, the bottle with a
wedge of paper or wood, lest it should
roll over on the reptile, and fastening q
string to it in order that it may be re-
moved without difficulty at the earliest
possible opportunity.
One of the most poisonous snakes
ever possessed was brought to me in q
brandy bottle, and after twisting and
shaking and tapping it for an hour with
out avail. I grew impatient. The tail
just then happened to protrude about
half an inch, so 1 seized 1t with my fin
gers, and, rapidly drawing the bottle
through the other hand, had the reptile
safely in my grip behind its death-deal-
ing jaws, now distended with anger. But
the slide of my snake box was shut over,
and could not draw it back with one
hand, so was obliged to let him slip
back into the bottle again, Having set
the box in order for the new conner
reception, l once more essayed to lay
hold of him by the tail; but now, most
provokingly, no amount of maneuvering
would bripg tina: useful member to the
top. Another half hours unsuccessful
angling converted my impotence into
desperation, and at length, when I saw
the tail about two inches from the mouth
of the bottle, I stuck my forefnger reck-
lessly in to try to secure it.
This was hopeless, as might have
known but it certainly did cool my spine
little when I discovered on attempting
to withdraw it that my finger was jam
med! / pulled, wrenched, twisted it with
all my might, for the brute was raising
its head, and its Pickering tongue was
rapidly approaching the unhappy digit
that involuntarily corked up its prison.
l gave final tug, the violence of which
nearly dislocated all my phalanges; but
it was no use, and with yell I raised
the bottle high in the air, intending to
smash it on the end of my bunk, I dis
tinctly felt snake, momentairly inverted,
fall on the end of my finger; but as I
flung my hand up the bottle slipped off,
and fell on the deck behind me, fortu-
nately without breaking. By the time I
picked it up the snake was half way out,
kissing furiously with rage and fright,
and l had just time to thrust it into the
box. Ii I had not been Hurried, I should
probably have been able to extricate my
finger with very little difficulty. It is
of the utmost Importance never to lose
presence of mind in dealing with these
things.

BOWLING In HOLLAND.

Everybody bows-nobody mods, and
touching of the hat is unknown. You
bow to every one you may have met
when calling on friend, for callers
meeting are introduced. You give an
order to gardner or a workman and he
takes off his hat with bow which would
not bring discredit on d duke. Every
one bows on passing house where they
visit. l often used to amuse myself by
watching behind the curtain to see every
second man take off his hat to the win
dow, it being quite immaterial whether
any of the family are visible or not; and
every second lady made polite bend of
the whole body, not a mere inclination
of the head, as our ladies do. Every
body bows. Men take off hats to each
other; tradesmen do the same to all their
customers. A well-known lady is bowed
to by all their fathers, husbands or
brothers friends, and any gentlemen
knowing lady is staying at house
where he visits will bow to her.
I even had bowling acquaintance with
student whom I had never met and did
not know from Adam. I could not
imagine what made the boy bow so pro-
foundry until I got some one to ask if he
knew me. I found that had once met
his father somewhere, and that was the
shall ] say excused I should if he
had been English. Well, after an alb
sence of three years, I returned to the
town where he lived, and there he was,
bowling still. For some months we had
quite lively bowling acquaintance, and
there it ended, as aforetime. I must,
howe7e include compliments with
bowling is the Dutch idea of politeness.
Every package is sent home with the
sender's compliments, and I once heard
the following message delivered at the
door of house where I was calling. "My
compliments to the naeurOu,D, and has
she any dust?" 1t was the dustmaD.

FRELINGHUYsEN's GRAMMAR.
pendent of The Augusta, Ga, Constitu-
tionalist: Some controversy has been
going on recently about Secretary Ere
linghuysen's grammar. In a recent
state paper he used these words: "The
United States has, etc." The New York
Mail insists that this was bad English
and ungrammatical. The Evening Star
here defended the Secretary on the
ground that the war had made the United
States nation, and, therefore, the sin
guar verb could have a plural nomina-
tive case; or, in other words, the result
of the war was the demolishment of Lind
ley Murray. Now practical test of the
question has been made ia the Senate,
and, in amending the verbiage of the
Mormon bill, no less person than Mr..
Edmunds proposed to strike out the
word ''has'' in sentence reading "the
United States has, and substitute the
word hare. 1t would seem, therefore,
that the austere Vermont Republican

linghuysen and The Evening Star. l
think there might be defense of the Sec
retary's position in the rule regulating
nouns of multitude; but he has no other
refuge in common sense or good prece-
dents. 4 learned friend here, who took
Mr.. Frelinghuysen's part against me,
agreed to leave the matter to the high
authority of Edward Eve--ott. In the
celebrated letter of that statesman to
Lord John Russell, dated September II,
1868, Mr.. Everett invariably uses the
plural verb, just as MIR. Edmunds insists
upon at this time.
