Kelly Endorses (?) Cleveland.

John Kelly's speech at the Tammany
Hall County Convention sent shiver
down the spine of every Democratic
supporter of Grover Cleveland. Mr..
Kelly said:
1t is well known that this organiza-
ton was not in favor of Grover Cleve-
land, and so clearly expressed itself at
the Chicago Convention. We said and
believed that it would be on, maaUise
nomination, If made. L will not criti-
else Governor Cleveland for his lack Of
qualifications for the position of first
officer of the General Government. The
community has done that. 1t would not
be proper for me to say that he is an
unfit man. l am not going into partic-
ulars of his public life, because 1t has
been such q ce1y short one. X \ We
cannot overlook the fact that a large
number of people in this city and State
who have in former years supported
the Democratic ticket have alienated
themselves and declare themselves OPP
posed to the Democratic candidates.
Let us hope that this has been done in
ignorance of the situation. \
Whatever errors Governor Cleveland
may have committed, let us hope that
the appeals for labor will receive con-
sideration. Let him say, and he will
probably say, that he has made mis-
takes.
This Enthusiastic" Endorsement of
Cleveland comes from the man who in
1879 was a candidate for Governor
against Lucius Robinson, and for
whom II ,566 votes were cast-43 ,O47 of
them in the County of New York.

that the true interest Of prohiDltlon

The personal character of Clevelandl

any one who desires information can
readily find affirmative evidence cor

of this city are content to stand upon

Rarbarism and Civilization.

The Democratic newspapers, III OF
der to restore the courage which they
lost at the first effect of the tremen-
dous Repu blican victory in Name are
reciting the figures OF the Arkansas
election. The New York Herald says:
Blaine's organs boast because the lnvarl-
able Maine has gone RepuDllcan again clIs

Anda Chicago newspaper says:

more decisive Democratic victory IMAM was

ANY Republican may eXclalm IN re-
GARD To political references like TINS: Il
thank thee, Jew, for teaching me that
word" The Democratic papers render
a valuable public service when they
compare such Democratic States as Az
kansas with such Republican States as
Maine, The difference between Az
kansas and Maine is the difference be-
tween the Democratic and the Repu6-
lican parties-or, in other words, IL is
the difference between semi-barbarlsm
and civilization.
The following tables of statistics re-
garding the two States of Arkansas
and Maine should be carefully studied;

An Accomplished Negro Butler,

One day last fall handsome mulat-
to boy came to the door of q friend OF
mine, asking for work. He was good
butler, he explained, despite his years;
he had been carefully trained and
could do many things outside OF his
strict line of duty. My friend happened
to need just such serving man, and
accepted him very imprudently on his
face, which was good, without asking
particularly for his recommendations
which were bad. He was most &C
complished servant. He knew all
about the dining room; he knew all
about the front door; he was willing
and ready and quiet, and great sue
cess in every way. He was an ex-
tremely polite boy, thoroughly gentle
and kind, and he soon worked his way
into the good graces of the family.
One day when one of the young ladies
was playing the piano. he was discoV-
cred listening. The peKt day be was
found listening again. His devotion TO
music was remarked upon. Finally he
plucked up courage to ask if he could
not sit down to the piano at odd mo-
ments when the ladies were otherwise
engaged. They said he could. He did
at the first opportunity, and for mu-
latto serving man he played exquis-
itely, OF course the ladies heard him,
and were pleased. They felt they had
a Jewel. They did not have him long.
One day, after he had won the hearts
sof the whole family, he quietly stepped
out with all the jewelry he could lay
his delicate hands on. On Tuesday he
was arraigned at the bar of the police
court, charged with having swindled a
dozen families in the same way. He
pleaded guilty in his dulcet tones to
each charge, and was held in heavy
bail for trial. Washington Cor. Phil

A Living Tomb.

Richard Swan, aiming Spectator
of Leadville, Col, was rescued from q
horrible fate on Wednesday, being
found in the bottom of u deserted mine
shaft, into which he had fallen six days
ago, and which has since been his liv-
ing tomb. His rescue was by the mer-
est accident. James Barry and Charles
A Dean, two miners, while on their way
to work heard the groans of some one
in distress. For some time they were
unable TO locate the sounds, but finally
found the opening of a shaft which had
almost been closed by the snow and ice.
They could then more plainly hear the
distant cries, and knew that the person
who uttered them must be lying at
the bottom. How deep the shaft was
they could not tell, for the depths were
black as midnight. Ropes and mining
timber were procured and Barry was
let down the shaft. On reaching the
bottom and striking n match, he found
u man lying face downward just in the
entrance of drift leading from the
shaft The man was unconscious, and
his face Enthusiastically depicted the
agonies of death by starvation. The
unfortunate man was raised to the sur
face and carried to the city, where, af-
ter restoratives had been applied, he
recovered consciousness.
He says that six days ago he was
walking up the gulch to look at some
mining property, when all of sudden
he was precipitated down the deserted
shaft spoken of. He was not aware of
its presence. as the mouth was COM
pletely blocked with snow. From the
fall he suffered a sprained ankle and a
bruised arm, but was not otherwise
hurt, as he struck upon his feet All
that night he made attempts to climb
out of the shaft, and only ceased his eff
forts when his strength had completely
given out. His sutferings were terrible.
AS near as he can tell, for three days
and nights he kept up the endeavor to
escape from his tomb. Frequently he
says he heard men passing by, but he
called to them in vain. Finally the
hunger and the exposure made him SO
weak that he could not stand up, and
giving up in despair he lay down on
the spot where he was found. He must
have lost consciousness soon after, fol-
he SAYS he knew nothing more till he
awoke in the cabin where he was taken
after being rescued.

StonewaN Jackson's Daughter.

American girls in London of late
have completely eclipsed the fame of
snch professional beauties as Mrs.
Langtry, Mrs. CORVALLIS West and
Lady Dudley. Having fallen at the
feet of Miss Chamberlain, Mary Ander-
son, and Minnie Palmer, they are now
raying over the charms of Julia Jack
son, the daughter of Stonewall jack
son. She must have been riding in
Rotten Row when she captured the no
bility and gentry of the United King
dom, for, in this country at least, her
beauty would hardly attract attention
in crowd. But she is the most grace
full and magnificent horsewoman that l
ever saw. I was introduced to her at
the White Sulphur Springs, Virginia, a
few years ago and rode with her fire.
quently over the difficult mountain
roads of the neighborhood. She SEEM
ed born to the saddle, guided her steed
with all the ease imaginable, and chal-
lenged the emulation of her male COM
panions by her fearlessness in galoping
along the edge of a yawning chasm
hundreds of feet deep, jumping stone
walls and leaping bitches. Her figure
is petite and willowy, but her complex
ion is sallow, and the plainness of her
features is only relieved by the magniti-
cent lustre and sparkle of a pair of big
black eyes. She will certainly aston
ish the Britishers by her rare combina-
ton of good sense and culture with an
utter freedom from conventionality.
On horseback she is every inch her IA
theirs daughter, and by no great stretch
of imagination one could fancy her
leading q desperate charge with all the
spirit and ardor of martial inspiration.
Miss Jackson is quite young, still in
her teens, in fact. Her life has been
mostly spent in the country, and she
was hardly thrown in Northern society
until few months before her depart
ure, when she visited Boston, was hand
somely received, and created genuine
sensation. Her family is comparative
ly poor, having lost nearly everything
by the war. But it is to be hoped that
by the way of legitimate reprisal for
the capture of so many of our heiresses
by impecunious English lords she may
make captive some wealthy scion OF
the British nobility.

An Omen Insult.

General Samuel J. Crook, veteran
New York soldier, who raised two reg
iments of cavalry in that State for the
war, and who has always been a lead
ing Democrat, has declined, not only
to make speeches for Cleveland, but is
openly advocating the election of
Blaine and Logan. The following is
the substance of his reply to a COM
mittee who asked him to go on the
stump in support of the Democratic
candidate:
He says that he has, with unselfish
steadfastness urged the claims of the
Democratic party to fuller recogni-
ton for many years, but the nominal
ton of Cleveland has destroyed all his
hopes in the direction of a return to
those principles from which the party
has drifted. He says that Cleveland's
"every act as Governor of this State is
a direct and open insult to his support
ers, so far as such acts relate directly
to or would help the masses of the peo-
pie. He presents the spectacle OF an
official posing as reformer and Dem
ocrat without particle of sympathy
with the people, not being with, OF, or
for them"

Loading Bullets With Air.

VIM. F. Chamberlain, of Norwich,
Conn, has, after fourteen years of ex-
perimenting, devised what he calls a
''perfect air-gun." The term is mis-
nomer, as the invention does not relate
to guns but to projectiles, Mr., Cham
.berlain does not load gun with air,
but he loads the bullet, and he thinks
the invention would do away with the
use of gunpowder. The various parts
of Mr.. Chamberlain bullets are three
in number. The exterior of the projec-
tile is hollow steel she'll. Part two is
steel end-piece, which screws into
the shell, leaving the chamber above
the end-piece to be charged with air.
The end-piece is hollow except at the
upper end, and has four equidistant
air holes at point on it's stem. A
steel pin fits exactly into the hollow of
the end piece, the end of the pin being,
flush with the bottom of the bullet
when it is ready for use. 1t is held in
place, when the bullet is charged, by
delicate wire penetrating the rim of the
end piece. In charging the bullet with
wire the end piece is screwed in tight,
and air is forced into the chamber by
an air engine invented by Mr.. Cham
berlain. The pin is then sent in and
the wire is fastened. The bullet may
be fired In any breech-loading gun of
the right bore. The fall of the gun
hammer breaks the wire holding the
steel pin, and drives the pin past the
air holes, the air charge rushes out
around the smaller end of the pin
against the gun breech, and the bullet
is hurled from the gun. The report of
the air discharge IS, correspondingly,
louder than that of powder. By adap-
tation of the same principles cart
ridge is made for throwing shot.
The air-charged bullet, Mr.. Cham
berlain says, may be made to fit the
smallest rifle or the largest cannon.
The velocity with which it is thrown
depends, of course, entirely on the
pressure of air with which it is loaded.
Mr.. Chamberlain has fired rifle bull
let, loaded with 100 pound air pressure,
half u mile accurately. The shells
will stand, he says. 1000 pounds pres
sure. He proposes TO make cannon
balls that may be fired thirteen or four
teen miles, the longyrapge possibilities
of the projectile being limited only by
the cohesive power of the steel. He
AYERS that his charged projectiles are
ready for use after any lapse of time,
and that there is no danger of the
bursting of the piece, as over-pressure
of air merely starts o seam in the
metal, instead of shivering it. For
rife or musket shooting q leaden bull
let is used.

How Hendricks Assisted in the Organize
ton of Disloyal Club in Ohio.

ton of Disloyal Club in Ohio.
In the latter part of April, 1853, a
number of the disloyai citizens of But
Ter County, Ohio, who were in sympathy
with the Rebellion, but who lacked the
nerve to 60 South and fight for their
principles" upon the field of mortal
conflict" made arrangements for form
ing what was called "Vallandigham
Club" They sent notice to the Hon.
Thomas A. Hendricks, Of Indiana, in
viting him to attend and assist them
in the organization of the club. Mr..
Hendricks very promptly accepted
the invitation, and was present at the
organization, whose place of meeting
was called the "Stone School-House,"
in St. Clair Township, Butler County,
O. The club was formed, consisting
of seventy members. Officers were ap-
pointed and their duties assigned chem.
A committee was appointed to prepare
resolutions expressing the principles
and prescribing the work to be done.
pared Hendricks addressed the club.
At the close of the address the COM
mittee returned with the following res
olutions, which were adopted without
dissenting voice:
RESOLVED, l. That Abraham Lincoln
is the Nero of America, and for his
many crimes, misdemeanors, and fla
grant violations of constitutional obli-
cations ought to be impeached.
2. That the clergy of the present day
are the Devils select and inspired rep
resentatives, preaching envy, hate, ma
lice, vengeance, blood and murder, in
stead of love, charity, Christianity, and
the doctrines of Christ, and do hereby
receive our unqualified and indignant
rebuke.
8. That we are in favor of an armis-
tice and National Convention, COM
posed of delegates from all the States,
to meet at such place as may hereafter
be designated, to consider terms of
peace; a reunion of all the States; that
being impossible, reunion of the
South and West at all hazards.
4. G. L. Vallandigham, our noble and
fearless Representative in Congress,
for his bold and manly opposition to Ex-
ecutive usurpatiOn and uncOnStitution-
al enactments, deserves and receives
our warmest thanks.
5. That this Government is Demo-
cratic machine, and that none but
Democrats know how to run it; there
fore we will vote for no man for an Of
fee unless he gives positive proof that
he is a sound, substantial Vallandtg-
ham Democrat.
6. That Abraham Lincoln and his
minions in power are using their ut
mostendeavors to centralize the Gov
eminent into one general head by OBJ
literating State lines, passing bills to
indemnify the President for arbitrary
arrests, and for enrolling the militia,
etc.; and we hereby denounce such ex-
ercise Of power as usurpation and ty-
ranny.
Z. That violence begets violence, and
accordingly that spirit of mob law
which has become to manifest itself in
various parts Of the country ought to
be met by violence and therefore we
recommend BULLETS, g
A committee was appointed to secure
the publication of these resolutions id

Rock County Herald: The Herald
has received fine cabinet photograph
ofthe cyclone which passed through
Miner County, Dakota, August %,
taken at Howard, Dakota. This cy-
clone, it will be remembered, was first
discovered about 4 o'clock OH bright
afternoon, when with the exception of
a few heavy banks of clouds, the sky
was clear and the sun was shining
pleasantly. Suddenly a monstrous
funnel shaped arm shot downward
from one of the clouds, and a moment
later the cyclone was formed and was
moving slowly across the prairie, car
rying destruction to everything in its
course. The cyclone remained in
sight about two hours. The photo
graph is a great curiosity, and undoub-
tedly, is the only photograph of a cy-
clone ever taken.
