A story from Crump.
Special Dispatch.


Mr. Crump tells many interesting reminis-
cences of President Gar6elds last illness, one
Of which is of the day when the President first
asked him for glass ofcold water Crump
relates that the physicians had forbidden him
water, but the poor man begged so hard and
10 pitiful like that l had frequently to leave
the room TO keep from violating the doctors
orders. When he found that pleading would
not serve his ends, then he assumed an authori-
tative tone, and i instantly became deaf.
Then he tried persuasion and cajoling; but
wouldn't weaken until he suddenly called me
TO him in low voice, and, tears in his eyes,
said: "Crump, would you refuse dying
man drink of waterp No, Mr, President"
l answered but you are not dying " But,
Crump," he added, feeblN "if you do not
give 1t to me will die" and he closed his
eyes. ! couldn't stand that, and couldn't
disobey the doctors, But somehow or another
i just set glass Of spring water ON tho table
by his bed, and went to tho window, and
hang me, when / retuned if that glass WASH +
empty, and the President wanted to know,
with smile, what | meant by tantalzing
him by placing glass with no water in it
within his reach, and he 30 thirsty. How
ever, he never asked for any more that day,
and am certain If he did drink that water 1t
did him no harm.

Foreign Influence In Our Domestic Az
fairs.

Many Of the most illustrious of tho trainers
of our constitution dreaded foreign influence
in the affairs of Amcrica-not the in1ueuye
of foreigners naturalzed and settled in good
faith in the United States, but that springirg
hom the intrigues of foreign emisaaries in
support of alien interests Above ALL they
dreaded the sinister influences of foreign
gold. They clearly foresaw its perils 10 the
nation in tho conflicts of native and foreign
interests, and against it, in tho conventiaas
which framed and ratified our organic law,
they solemny raised their warning vdsoS.
Thus did Madison and Hamilton and GJTey.
neur Morris and others. Mr.. Elbridre
Gerry, of Massachusetts,, distinguished and
an influential member of the Philadelphsa
constitutional convention, and afterward
governor of Massachusetts,, urged:
Foreign powers will intermeddle in our Affairs
and spare no expense to Influence them. Persons
having foreign attachments will be sent among w
and insinuated into our councils In order to be
made intruments for their purposes Every one
knows tho vast sums paid out in Europe for secret
SERVICES. Ho (derryD was not sngulNr IN tntce
idCas A great many OF the mos Influential men
IN Massachusetts reasoned in the. same manner
El,ofs Dtbai., Supplement- II, al.
How often during our comparatively short
existence as nation have we experienced
the truth and force of this warning2 But in
nothing has this baleiul influence, the use of
foreign gold in our domestic affairs, been more
conspicuously felt or recognized than in the
long, persistent, and systematic efforts or in
trigues of the British trader, through corrup-
tion, fraud, and lying to uproot or destroy our
system of protection of home industry. These
efforts even antedate the adoption of our pres
ent form of government. They extend far back
into our colonial period, continuing through all
the intervening time up to the present. On an
other page we, as briefly as possible, sketch
their history, purposes, and consequences if
successful.

brl lte reunion in the capital Of the nation, a
rc,i inion Of an order formed of veterans of tho

In the land and tho cause Of many grave
fcols that emancipation from the rule of

boI of officers of the American army met at
Wbdsor and in order to perpetuate in somo
form the tics that had grown up between

vedy much such u society as tho survivors of

Ian Il and the Tennessee have organized in

TIE Kentucky democrats did a sensible
thing yesterday in following the advice of
THE NATIONAL REPUBLICAN and nominating
Proctor Knott for governor. Barring his poll
tics, Mr. Knott is as good republican as any

his democracy which can hardly be forgiven

Tho National Jockey Club.

The spring meeting of the Jockey club has
been grand success thus far, not even ex-
cepting the first day, when the energetic
president, Col. McKibben, resolutely insisted
that there should be no postponement on ac-
count of the weather, and carried his point.
Tho course is set in beautiful emerald
franc of knolls and clusters of trees,
and the outlook is no small part
of the entertainment. The grand stand
is spacious, and the club house for men,
bers is cozy and comfortable. Excellent order
is maintained and no pains or money spared
to promote the comfort of those who attend.
The club is an established institution of the

all who like horse-racing, as who does not ?
This is tho last regular day, and, of course,
the crowd will be great.
