GEN. GRANTS WEALTH.
A Showing That He is Not by Any Means
a Pauper.
New York Correspondence.

a Pauper.
New York Correspondence.
1t is estimated THAT Grants real estate
holdings throughout the country are
easily worth $4,000. His property in
this city alone would have seemed to
him twenty-five years ago an utterly
unattainable fortune, but, although
real estate is rising here and doubtless
everywhere in value, suppose we call it
$500, ,OO0-an utterly inadequate sum in
my Judgment. You have doubtless
read, in common with the rest of the
world, numerous stories of the hospi-
tality with which Grant was treated by
potentates, east and west, as he belted
the globe in his all-embracing trip; but,
my dear friends, you have no concep-
tion at all of what that meantt to Grant.
His magnificent houseu eup-town is stored
absolutely, like museum, with curious
and costly presents, the value of which
has been repeatedly stated at a sum so
large that. under ordinary circumstan-
ces, would appear absurd. The general
belief is that, at an auction, these curios
would bring, with what else is in the
house, not less than half a million dol
lars. Of course, their absolute value,
when parted with piece by piece, would
be much more, but at a low estimate
we will call it half a million. Now,
what the general has in his horses, and
he is very fond of a fine team; what he
has in equipages, and jewels and crna-
ments, and bonds, and stocks, and other
evidences of this worlds goods, we
know not, but we do know that he has
S25O,OOO given him by Jay Gould and
others, in the hands of trustees, which
he can not touch, but the interest of
which is at his disposal. In the face of
this we are asked to regard him as a
poverty-stricken individual, to whose
yearly income should be added the
pleasant sum of $1,000. Now put it in
Typographical form, and let us see just
how this man stands:

would include money in the bank, little
bundles of documentary evidences of
stocks here, there and everywhere; the
absolute values of his real estate, and
an honest recapitulation of his personal
estste, with which the firm of Grant &
Ward have nothing whatever to do.

Sioux Falls Argus: In the telephone
case Judge Palmer has decided that
Mayor Schaetzel, Alderman Grigsby,
City Marshal Jetfers and Police Justice
Hawkins acted in contempt of court,
and fined each of them $500 and trlm-
mings. The city is fined $1,000 and
costs. He also decided the demurrer in
the main case against the city, thus
leaving the question Of amount of
damages, as about the only thing yet to
be determined. THERE'S talk of a COM
promise with the company on the ques-
ton of damages.

Journal is Il neat, healthy looking sheet,

nothing to fear from the influence of
the James and Red river valley voters.

After all, the money made by farming
is the cleancst best money IN the world.
1t is made in accordance with Gods
first law, under honest influences, away
from the faint Of trade, or the fierce
heat of speculation. 1t fills the pockets
of the farmer at the expense of no other.
His gain is no mans loss; but the more
he makes the better for the world at
large. Prosperous farmers make pros
porous people. Whatever benefits our
agriculture benefits our commonwealth

Odd Rhymes About One of Mans Friends

Odd Rhymes About One OF Mans Friends.
A doctor of some note gives the following
rhythmical enumeration of the qualities of q
good cow:
She's long in her face she's fine in her horn.
She'll quickly get fat without cake or corn;
She's clear in her jaws, she's full in her chino,
She's heavy in flank, and wide in her loin;
She's broad in her ribs, and long in her rump,
A straight and flat back, with never a hump;
She's wide in her hips, and calm in her eye,
Shes firm in her shoulders, and thin in her thigh
She's light in her neck and small in her tail.
She's wide in her breast, and good at the pail;
She's fine in her bone and silky of skin,
She's grazier's without, and butchers within.

BLOOD IN HIS EYE.

Though Gen. S. S. Carroll is on the Retired
List of the Army, and although he has certainly
had fighting enough in his day and generation
10 satisfy any moderate minded man, the old
pugnaclons spirit flames up in him yet lust
as 1t used 10 when leading his brigade up the
Shenandoah Valley. The General and his wife
have had some trouble, which resulted in a
suit on Mrs CAROLS part for divorce. Her
counsel, Col. Geo. L. CorllhilI who came into
notice during the Gitcau trial seemed to find
IT necessary in the course of the proceedings TO
attack the old General rather lively. If the
Colonel had been better informed he would
have known this was very unsafe proceeding
Gen. Carroll Immediately went on the war
path, the Co!olel'S scalp for his objective. The
story goes that he forced his way into Corkhil
room with brace Of reyolvcrs, one Of which he
handed him. saying that he had come there TO
Xiii HIM. Strange to say, the proposal did not
MI CorkhliI with jog. In fact, he had another
engagement which seemed TO preclude his ac-
eeptance OF the Generals proposition, and he
begged 10 be let of with tears in his eyes. The
apJect submission OF the Colonel did not appease
the Generals wrath by any means, but he con-
ciuded not to carry his sanguiaary intention
into execution that evening. but come other
evening. be left the gallant Colonel one of the
reyolvers, saying that he would defer the ex-
ecution TO some more convenient time. and he
might In fact, conclude TO shoot him some time
ON sight, so he had better be ready at all times
10 defend himself. Last Saturday evening he
came up TO where the Colonel was standing
with party and caned him pretty sharply with
q light switch cane. The sequel is awaited
