The Detective Pinkerton.

Many of the stories told of Allen
Pinkerton, the great detective who
lately died in Chicago. are characters
tic of the man. Among Others it is
said that when the Michigan Central
railroad first started there was q good
deal of opposition among farmers and
others. Trains were wrecked repeat
eddy, and the opportunity for plumber
attracted the worst characters of the
country. Allan Pinkerton was sent
for, and undertook in person to ferret
out the guilty parties. He finally learn
ed of plot to wreck certain train.
Rep airing to the spot after night he
found culvert where he concealed HIM
self. Cropping around in the darkness,
he found several crowbars and knew
then that he was in the right place.
He mad been waiting for hours when
three men approached the culvert.
Pinkcrton had doubled himself up in a
corner to remain undiscovered. Tho
men took the crowbars and proceeded
TO tear up the track. Single-handed as
he was, he followed the men and de-
clared them to be his prisoners. In the
dark of the night, the pistols were
whipped out and fight begun, in
which Pinkerton killed two men and
wounded the third, who escaped in tho
darkness. Hardly had Pinkerton as
certained that none of the rails were
yet displaced when the train Numbered
by in safety. That was the last organ

THE CORY RAG.

The "bloody shirt which SEN
ators Sherman and Malone dug up
and flung to the breeze with the
view to making it the campaign
standard, is not likely to prove an
inspiring rag. The indications are
that it will disgust rather than
please. The Danville and Copiah

ing amusement for the grave SEN
ators who are conducting them,
but the country takes no
interest in the farces. The
newspapers are much better
and more thorough investigators
than Congressman, for while the
latter do all they can to make par
tisan showing, the former gather
and present the facts, from which
the verdict is made up. The news

particulars of the two bloody affairs
which Sherman's committees are
now inquiring into, and the public
came to the.right conclusion in re-

An UNPOPULAR REPRESENTATIVE.

Whatev.r else may come out If
ths Lssker incident it is already
developed that the usefulness of Mr.,
Aaron a. Sargent, as Minister at
the Berlin court, has departed. 1t
is said that the st tie Department
has long been aware Of the fact that
Mr.. Sargent was being trea ed
coldly and without due considera
ton by the German government,
but has kept the matter quiet to
avoid talk and in the hope of fixing
the trouble before the exposure
came. Now, however, the facts
are known by everybody. Our
Minister scarcely rises to the
dignity of q figure head. Official
communications to thi, govern
ment are made direct to Washing
ton, Sargent being ignored entirely.
He is sighted socially as well, only
rarely being invited to the balls and
entertainments where the pre- ence
of other foreign representatives is a
feature. His necessary intercourse
with the State officials is OF the
most formal character imag nab1e
This general official dislike of the
man seems not to extend to this
government, between which and
Germany the relations are cordial
and friendly as usual, proper
courtesy and respect charac erizing
the correspondence OF the latter as
we'll as that Of the United States
The unpleasantness arose from the
oficiousness Of Mr.. Sargent, who
began his career in Berlin by making
himself extensively prominent. The
steady, cautious, slow-going Ger
mans have way Of their own of
doing things, and while it msy be
Old-fogyish and clum y, they are
not the people to change it to sni!
the tastes of a meddlesome Yankee.
Al frat they subm tied to Sar-
gents criticisms and inter-
ferences, attributing them TO his
lack OF knowledge of his
position, but when they found that
it was due to his general ignorance,
and obtrusive, selI-important nature,
they quietly but effectively snubbed
him, and he has since rested under
a cloud, being the one ambassador
from first-class foreign power, who
is ignored by the Ger man govern.
ment.
In view of the fact that Washing.
ton is in hourly communication
with all the leading capitals of
Europe, and all matters of import
ancs have to be sent to the State
Department for final action,
there is very little sense In
keeping a minister In any of
the Europesni countries; the prac-
tice is more from respect for old
custom than on account Of any pres
ent need for such an officer; but If
We do maintain q representative
abroad, he should at least be man
who would command the respect OF
the government to which he is ac~
credited. This Mr.. Sargent has not
done, hence the sooner heis relieved
aud more popular, II not an ADLER
man sent to succeed him.
