[For TIE yIrGISIAN.l
The shameful occurrence that took place
on the cars on the 18th inst. near Winches-
ter, is surprise to no one acquainted with
the character of the chief actor in the
affair. But if the b. & O. r. Il. retains in
its employment a conductor who would
permit such an outrage, without an effort
to prevent it, then our women can no lon
ger travel on their cars without running
the risk of being grossly insulted.
But what a commentary it is on the par
/ ty that rules in Shenandoah, to force up
on us a Commonwealth Attorney who
habitually violates the law which he is
sworn to conserve, and breaks the peace
that it is his duty to preserve weak, silly,
and arrogant to the last degree, and as
base as he is gnOrant-utterly despicable
from every standpoint. Let us call to
mind, too. that this man is a Malone electOr,
asking the suffrage of the people, to cast
the electoral vote of Virginia for President
and Vice-President of the United States.
Is this the morality of politics or is 1t a
trayesty on republican government.
Mr.. OFT wrote tho above without hear
ing or knowing anything but what APP
peared in the Register. It's own language
from a protesting christian and an elder
in the Presbyterian Church at this place,
is its own best characterization. The on
ly reply l need to make is that up to this
time of this gratuitOus attack upon me,
never failed to exhibit toward the writer
all thu respect to which his extreme old
age and the high character given him by
his towns people entitled him. If, in
stepping away from this world into the
great Unknown hescan get any comfort
from this greeting of a young man on its
threshold the analysis of whose offending
is summed up in his italics may pass
quietly over his unprovOked defamation
of myself with only pity for him, and be-
fore that great Tribunal of Justice
where these matters must and will be
finally adjudcated have no doubt that
1, an unpretentious christian will stand an
equal chance, for the vindication of my
conduct in this world, with the Hyp0crite |
and Defamer.

quickly came to grief. Ministers

ANDREW JACKSON'5 MAN
NERS.
Hostile Tributes to the Grace
and Dignity Of Old Hickory

For the social life of Washington
the president had one advantage
which was altogether unexpected and
seemed difficult of explanation by
anything in his earlier career. HI
had at mis- command the most court
eous and agreeable manners. Even
before the election of Adams, DAME
Webster had written to his brother:
General Jacks0n's manners are bet
ter than those ofany of the candidates
He i, grave mild and reserved. My
wife is for him decidedly" And long
after when the president was to pass
in review before those who were
perhaps his most implacable op
ponents, the ladies of Bosttn, we have
the testimony of the late Josiah
Quincy, in his "Figures from The
Past" that the personal bearing o.
the obnoxious official was most un
willingly approved. Mr. Quincy was
detailed by Governor Lincoln, on
whose military staff be was, to attend
President Jackson every where when
visiting Boston in 1888, and this mar
rator te<tities that with every pre-
judice az .lnht Jackson he found him
essentially ~ knightly parsonage
-prejudiced, narrow, mistaken on
many points, it might be, but vigor~
ously q gentleman in his high sense
OF honor and in the natural straight
forward cOurtesies which are easily
distinguished from the veneer Of
policy" Sitting erect on his
horse thin stiff type of military
strength he carried with him in the
streels a bearing of such dignity that
sfaid old Bostonians who had refused
even to look upon him from their
windows would finally be coaxed into
taking one peep, and would then
hurriedly bring forward their little
daughters to wave their handker>
chiefs He wrought, Mr.. Quincy
declares, "a mysterious charm upon
old and young" show ed, although in
feeble health, a great consideration
for Others, and in private q really
agreeable companion. It appears
from these "reminiscences that the
president was not merely the cause
Of wit in others, but now and then
appreciated it himself, and that be
used to listen with delight to the
reading of the "Jack Downing"
letters, laughing heartily sometimes,
and declaring. 1.-The vice-president
must have written that. Depend
uron IL, Jack Downing is only Van
Buren IN masquerade. Itis a curious
fact that the satirist is already the
better remembered of the two, al
though Van Buren was in his day so
powerful as to preside over the official
patronage Of the nation, and to be
called the ''Little Magician"

How Watch Cases are Made.

The many great Improvements intro
duced in the manufacture of the Jas. Boss
Gold Watch Case, have led to similar i'm
provements in the making of silver cases.
Under the old methods, each part Of a
silver case was made of several pieces OF
metal soldered together, requiring great
amount of cutting and soldering, which
sotened the metal and gave it the piability
of lead rather than the elasticity of silver.
Under the improved methods, each part
ofthe keystone Silver Watch Case is made
of one solid piece of metal hammered into
shape. The advantages are readily appar-
ent, for every one knows that hammering
hardens the metal while soldering softens it.
To test the superiority of the keystone
Silver Watch Case, take one of OF. weighs,
press j. squarely in the center v hen closed,
and it will not give, while case of same
weight of any other make will give enough
tobreak the crystal. The keystone Silver
Watch Case is made only with silver cap
and gold joints.

MADISON.

Commencement exercises take
up most of the present week at the
University. About the usual number
of graduates will go out into the
world this year. The law class will
turn out twenty-eight. The number OF
agricultural students has not visibly
increased and the farmers need net
fear they will be disturbed in their
avocation by any of the present
graduates. Judge Cassoday ad-
dressed the law class, together with
a large audience at assembly cham
Der on Saturday evening last. The
lecture is well spoken of and was
not without interest to the general
assemblage.
Field day sports came off on
Friday last, and were highly enjoyed
and largely attended.
On Sunday afternoon last Presi-
dent Bascon delivered the annual
sermon at assembly hall, to an in
terested audience. His address
was equal to the man and the man
in every way equal to the occasion.
Few men are able to convince
men more thoroughly or win
more genuine respect for their
real worth and attainments than
President Bascom. In his recent
dealings with the people in the city
of Madison and his university con-
nection he has shown himself to be
true and honest man, who dares
to stand by his convictions
Mr.. w. H.Bennett and family will
we understand remove to Mineral
Point about the first Of July. Now
that Boss Keyes, has come to the
front, Mr.. Bennett perhaps finds the
political atmosphere in this locality
to be unhealthy, and maks haste to
depart before becoming contamin-
ated by the new political regime.
The temperance men and saloon
keepers Of Madison are having a
lively time Of it. Notices appear in
nearly all saloon windows warning
temperance "spies and noxious YER
min to keep away or there will be
trouble" About fifty arrests were
made for the violations of the Sun
day law John NJ. DIN and T. G..
Richmond lead the claw and order
league"
Madison is at its loveliest now,
within the next three months the
city will no doubt have received
more visitors than ever before in the
same space of time. The state fair,
the Monona Lake assembly, the
National Teachers Association, to-
gether with picnics and excursions
without end, are each sure to attract
large delegations.
Blaine has been nominated and
the bald head of Boss Reyes is said
"to shine as brightly as a new tin
pan in the rays Of the morning sun "
on account thereof. For the work
done in Chicago Reyes will certainly
expect to displace the present min
lister at the court of St. James, or
get fat star route contract.
The state fair in this city last year
was the most successful ever held
and the arrangements for this years
are on a much larger scale.
