Great sympathy is expressed IN
Washington for General Grant, who
is supposed to have lost a great part
of bis fortune in the failure OF the
stock operating firm OF Grant q
Ward. The President and his sons
became members of the unfortunate
firm several years ago, and it is re-
ported that the Grant family have lost
nearly s25o,ooo by the failure. Sen
ator Edmunds has introduced bill IN
the Senate to place General Grant on
the retired list of the army, with the
rank and pay Of General. In dong
this, he said he hoped the Military
fairs Committee would take early
action on the bill, for reasons which
everybody understood. Thls remark
vas construed to mean chat the ex-
President needed the salary OF a re-
t;rad officer in order to enable him to
live comfortably. It is we'll under
stood that the friends of Grant Will
propose his name as candidate 1ol
! President at the Chicago Convention
unless Blaine should be nominated
on one of the first ballots. While
Grants misfortune will elicit genera
sympathy, it is not believed that the
failure Of the firm will add to MI
popularity in convention.

The Secretary of the Interior has
written a letter on the subject OF In
dian education, in which he says that
while he considers the book OF knowl-
edge very important, it, in his opln-
ion. is not the main object. "That
education" he adds, ''is best which
enables person to take care OF HIM
self to the best advantage. Literary
studies should be combined with man
ual labor exercises; but if either Is
neglected, it would be better the first.

Character in Gait.

1t is well to beware Of the man who
carries his left foot in toward his right
in walking, giving the impression that
his right foot turns out and his left
turns in. This man is natural petty
larcenist He may perhaps have never
stolen in his life. but that was because
Of fear, or lack of opportunity, but all
the same he is liable at any time to
sequester unconsiiered TRIES for pure
wantonness. He is Of n k.eptomaniac
nature; but he is not nearly so danger
Gus as the man who deliberately lifts
his leg up from the thigh as though he
was going upstairs That man is q
natural and an educated villain. In
England, where the tread-mill is used
in prisons, many convicts acquire that
peculiar step, but tits the natural, care
full, cat-like tread Of the criminal The
girl who walks with n Hat foot planted
squarely on the ground, as though she
wanted it TO grow there, may not be rs
attractive as the girl with the arched
instep, but she is good deal better
natured. She Is sure to be a good
nurse, kind hearted, sympathetic,
anxious to bear the burdens OF others,
while the girl with the arched foot is
nearly sure to be selfish, and certain TO
be a coquette if she walks on her toes.
The man of short, nervous steps Is
always business man Of energy, but
if the stride is from the knee only, he
Is cold and sci h, caring for no one
but himself. The man whose stride is
long and at the same time energetic, is
generally bright, always erratic and
Unbalanced, often conceiled, always
careless, fond of admiration, generally
willing to sacrifice much for praise and
eclat, and, while often good fellow,
generally unreliable. The diplomat
and the fnancier have a smooth, Gid
ING walk, hard to describe, but easy to
recognize. There is nothing sneaking
about it, but it betokens careful de-
Liberation, as though every step were
duly considered before being made.
Great statesmen and great philanthro-
pists always have a loose, stumbling
gait, which comes from thinking about
bAhSio IlOIS dD'uL lHtuSclNtS.
The strut of the vain man, the teeter-
ing trip of the dude" the longing
gait OF the unemployed club man, are
all too familiar to cali for description.
To say that person walks like a lady
or like a gentleman is high praise.
The gait can never be picked up in
after life, it must be born in man or
woman, and cultivated in early youth.
1t is lost TO man when he falls into
bad ways, for SO surely as he loses his
consciousness of rectitude and pride of
honor, so surely will he pick up the
gait Of the loafer An honest man,
gentle or simple, never walks like
thief, and thief can never counterfeit
the gait of an honest man, out in at
tempting to apply these rules to men,
one knows it must be remembered that
all thieves are not caught and all sus.
pected persons are not bad. --A'M Ca!t-

Uncle Sans Crown Jewels.

Few are aware says the Washington
G0fcHc, that in the broad vaults Of the
treasury are deposited for safe keeping
large quantity of diamonds and other
precious stones, which will form the
nucleus Of the crown jewels when this
country becomes an empire. These
gems all have histories. Among them
is BOTTLE four or five inches long, fill
ed with diamonds, and there are many
other precious stones. Some OF them
are set in gold ornaments intend II for
pc eonal wear. The first collection Of
which we have any authentic account
has been IN the custody Of the treasury
officials for over forty-Iivc years, They
were sent TO President Van Buren, by
the lmaun of Oman, whose capital city
Of Muscat, in Arabia, on the Persian
