The Union Veteran Legion, a new mill.
tary secret society recently organized, has
given considerable offense to many of the
short term soldiers. One of the provisions
of the Legion is that only soldiers who
volunteered in tliree-year's regiment for
8 years and ser7ed at least two years (um-
less discharged for wounds or disability
and who volunteered not laler than the
year 1862, can become members. This
rule prohibits all the nine-monhts' men
from entering the organization, and ms IL
consequence they, as well as many of the
" lhree-months" and "hundred-,lay" men,
are complaining that it is slur cast
against them. The members of the Legion
say, the organization is not intended TO
be in opposition with the Graud Army of
the Republic. or to lnsul, those who were
out in the service but short time, but
inasmuch as some men whose scrvicel in
the field were confined 10 such narrow i'm
its and small space OF time as to be Inves-
BILE to the naked eye, and who in late years
have managed to become renowned warri
ors and occupy prominent Offices in other
military organizations, we concluded we
would have quiet little society where
there could he no question as to whether
man was soldier or not" We can see
no objections to the old vetrans forming
as many societies as they desire, and as
the time is rapidly approaching when the
youngest OF them will be mustered out, by
death, they should he permitted 10 eight;
their battles DER again and drink ont OF
the same canteen," rs much as they please
providing the cantcen is of the regulation
size and the battles are fought with air
guns.-Nep Lisbon Journal.

THE GOVERNOR OF new YORK.
Leads the List for the Democratic
Nomination at Chicago.

Grover Cleveland, the present Governor
of New York is looked upon by the lead
ers in the Democratic party as the most
available candidate for the Presidency,
and it Is conceded at this writing that he
will probably be nominated on the first or
second ballot.
Governor Cleveland is n native of New
Jersey, and is now in hls forty-seventh
year. He comes from ministerial fam
lily, his father and II number of his rela-
tives being Protestant clrrgymen. Grover
received an academic education after
which he went to New York city as clerk
in some charitable institution. He soon
became infected with the Western fever,
and on his route to his intended destination
he stopped in Buffalo, n. Y, to visit Il
wealthy uncle residing in that city, who
persuaded his nephew to remain and take
position in his store. Young Cleveland.
however, aspired to become II lawyer and
tion by securing him clerkship with n
prominent law firm in Buffalo. Mr.. Clev-
eland was admitted to The bar in 1859, and
soon thereafter was appointed Assistant,
District Attorney for the county OF Erie.
In 1870 he was elected Sheriff of the Coun-
ty and in 1881 Mayor of the city. His
election in 1882 Ms Governor OF New York
was noted triumph of his popularity
with the people, his majority over Judge
Folger being nearly 100000. Upon this
fact is based his present prominence as a
candidate before the approaching Demo-
cratic Convention, and it is claimed by his
admirers, that if nominated he would
sweep the Empire State with large ma
joiity over Blaine.
Governor Cleveland is a bachelor, and
should lie become the next incumbent OF the
White House he will have to run the
gauntlet of n second campaign with mar
riagealle ladies who will aspire to do the
honors as mistress OF the social household
OF the President oil the United States.

James r. Chalmers, of Mississippi, re-
Gently admitted to his seat in Congress by
the votes of the Democratic members,
made a speech the day after he was adj
mitted, in which he made his adieus to
the old party forever. Among other things
lie said:
"Sir, once loved the old Democratic
party with all the fond devotion Of son
to his mother. My venerated father re-
esiyed many OF the highest hoEors in its
gift, and bequeathed 10 his children the
love and gratitude he felt. But l should
feel that dishonored his grave and his
memory were | 10 cling 10 the loathsOme
carcass OF modern Democracy. II is bet
ter that the body, clothed with the tri-
nmphs of years, should be buried out of
sight since the soul that once made it
glorious has fed, IN the hope that u res
direction morn may come when the yesiaI
fires shall be kindled on its altars, and
when, phenix-like. it shall rise from its
ashes clothed in the imposing grandeur of
youth, strength. and beauty, and live
alone for The honor, welfare, and glory of
our common country"

Toledo Bee: IN the death OF Allan
Pinkerlon at Chicago, where lie was 80
well known, there passes from the stage of
action one of the greatest detectives ever
presented to the world. Our acquaintance
with him dates hack nearly thirty years,
when the Scotch Cooper of Dundee" and
his modest home on Fox River, in Kane
county, Ill, were not so well known hs to-
day. His discovery OF the plot 10 nssas-
sinale President Lincoln at Baltimore,
1861. was the first general introduction
MIR. Pinkerton had to the PEOPLE OF this
country. His public record since then is
well known. Toledo has been the scene of
many of his labors, some of which would
furnish material enough for fair sized
volume. He was man who did not
know the meaning OF the word fear. He
went where duty called scorned a mean
action never stopped to the petty tricks
of too manv detectives; was sober, indus
trious, truthful and honest. The world is
better for his having lived. His name
will pass into history as the "Vidocq' ol
America.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
[From our Regular oorrcppondept.

WASHINGTON, d. c., July 2, 1884.
The American people seem 60 take il for
granted that for the summer months at
least, the President is justified in abdico-
ting his power and leaving the Govern
ment to take care OF itself. OF all the line
Of Presidents, from Washington down TO
the nineteenth, Grant was the first chief
magistrate who had ever taken summer
junketng. Mr., Lincoln in The last sum.
mer OF his life slept occasionally out at
the Soldiers Home, but in his four years
administration, lie never left Washington.
Nor was il particularly because of the ex-
islcnce Of war and the supervision of mill
iary affairs that detained him, because
these duties could as we'll have been per-
formed from any other headquarters, but
Mr.. Lincoln would not establish the pre-
cetlent Of leaving the Capital and the
duties of his high position, simply because
of the climate and its malnrious accom-
panimcnts. Yet the Washington OF 10.
day is infinitely more healthful than 1t
House shows but two Presidential demises
that Of Harrison who was killed, not by
malaria but by the Office hunters and that
of Taylor who. ate too heartily of ice
cream that was favored with the same
villuinous vanilla that afterwards poison
ed Mr.. Buchanan and others at the Ma.

Fresh fIom journey of 1000 miles in

most disturbed districts in South Africa
with the exception OF Zuluiand, the Rev.
Wardlaw Thompson. the travelling secre-
tary OF the London Missionary society, re-
ports that in all the tribes OF South Africa
bad brandy is the greatest curse of the
natives. The brandy keg does far more
harm than the powder barrel, In North
Bechuanaland brandy has been kept out
hitherto with considerable success; and in
Basutoland, in the old times the importing
OF brandy was forbidden. Since the late
Basuto war liquor has been introduced
freely. As result, hall the chiefs in Basu.
toland are dlpsomaniacs. They drink
morning, noon and night, and many Of
their absurd actions are attributable,
not to the inherent folly OF the Busuto
nature, but TO the baleful influence OF the
white mans beverage. II seems to effect
all races in about tho same way.
