His Suspicious were Confirmed.

A mild-mannered, athletic-lOoking
young man stepped up to stranger at
the corner of Milk and Devonshire streets
yesterday and pulled a $50 bill out of his
waistcOat pocket. 81 suspect" said he,
cOnfidentially, ''that that is a counterfeit,
Can you tell me il it isp'
The stranger looked the bill over and
handed it back, saying that he couldn't
tell himself whether it was bad or not,
but if the mild-mannered, athletic-looking
young man would step over to the sub
Treasury in the post office he could very
readily find out, he was sure.
The young man crossed over and pre-
scented the bill to the clerk behind the
bars. He suspected the $40 bill was bad,
he said. The clerk turned it over and
held it up td~the light. Then he went
over to a corner OF the enclosure and
brought big heavy stamp down on the
bill. When he handed it back to the mild
hammered young man the word counter
feit' was cut across it in large letters.
''Why, you poor thing" SAID the young
man, ''yOu have spoiled it! What are
you going to give me in place of it?
can't pass that thing nOw."
''Lucky thing for YOU" said the clerk,
calmly; ''you won't have a chance to try.
didn't spoil it; it never was good" And
the clerk went about his work.
This angered the athletic young man.
He almost frOthed at the mouth. "You
red-headed, white-livered, black-hearted
son of a gum" he cried, ''come out of your
pen there and I'll wallop the life out OF
you"
The clerk didn't come out of his pen,
and the athletic young man had simply

A Call on Mr. BIaine-One View OF
Buffers Candidacy.

A Gail on NAr. BIA1nG-Onc view u
Buffers Candidacy.
A day or two ago, says a Bar Harbor
correspondent of the New York Graphic,
your correspondent enjoyed the pleasure
of call at the Blaine cottage, on Mount
Desert street. There was something very
pleasant in meeting the brilliant states
man in the simple eloquence OF his nome
here. in the pretty morning room, where
books and current literature ana photo-
graphs OF friends make up an Informally
social atmosphere. Mr.. Blaine does not
talk on political topics with any member
of the press, nor does he in any case con-
sent to any interviewing. This fact
understood, he meets press people with
that frankness and cordiality that at once
establish the most pleasant relations.
Mr.. Blaine impresses me each time tnat
/ have had the pleasure of meeting him as
having "a peculiar faculty for placing his
guest or companion for the moment in
that direct relation only defnable as zen
rapport"
What does Buffers candidacymean?

commiseratingly, ''that FremOnts defeat

The Fremont campaign reused the people

A newspaper away up in Elmira, New
York. has published an article containing
an alleged expose Of the new secret pO-
Iitical order yclept the Plumed knights.
Ii seems that this organization is little
else than revival of the Know NOthings.
II is stated that while this is true many
of the Plumed knights are ignorant OF
the fact. as the order is said to consist Of
an outer and inner circle-the former be-
ing merely a political club, to which for
eigners as we'll as native Americans are
admitted as blind, while only the NOV
inc spirits Of the order, or those who are
in favor of Know-Nothingisnl, are admit
ted to the inner circle.
II is stated that the members Of the
outer circle are merely sworn to vote for
inner circle take an abbreviated form OF
Blaine aud Logan, while the members Ofthe
the old KuOw-NOthing Oath. They are
sworn not to divulge any of the signs or
mysteries of the order, to vote for Blaine
and Logan, and to do all they can to per-
petuate the Republican party. The most
important part of the oath is said to be an
utilization on the part of the members
not to vote for any man for Office, except
he be an American citizen, who is in IA
yor ot Americans ruling America.
Itseems mat a good deal OF excitement
has been caused by this publication in
some quarters. 1t may be a fabrication
made out Of the whole cloth, or it may be
in the main correct, Whether 1t is true
or not. no doubt it viii he vigorously con-
tradicted by the Pinned knights and the
/ Republican leaders.
1t may be remembered that Mr.. Blaine
was one of the original KnOw-NOthings,
and that in the campaign for the nOmina-
ton, lust before the happy thought OF
canturing the Irish vote struck the Re-
publican managers he was proclaimed as
! a representative OF the distinctive Ameri-
can idea as adhered to by a portion of the
Republican party. No matter if this
story should turn out TO be
a canard, Blaine's demagogi-
cal anti-foreign record cannot be
successfully whitewashed, and it ought
~ he sufficient to condemn him in the
oDinion OF nine out of every ten intelli-
cent foreign born American citizens.

pennies, while crowd Of several hun

A Frog Quartette

We are informed by James Judd that
there is man living near Tar Flat who
is soon to travel with a qnartette. The
party in question has spent most of his
life in catching different kinds of frogs
aud other little animals, and is quite
naturalist The party has now on hand
four different kinds of frogs, which he
has had for two years. and in that time
has quite successfully taught them to
sing the Sweet By.and-By." A little
marsh frog is the tenor, and he is
placed in bowl of water and partly
buries his mouth in water when he
sings tenor. This gives the voice a bird
like sound that is SAID to be very
charming. A very large bull-frog is the
basso OF the troupe, and he is fully equal
to the occasion, doing his part well.
The soprano and alto are very good
songsters, and when two or three per-
sons are gathered to hear them the
soprano is said TO put ON as many airs as
any other of that ilk. The owner OF
the curious four is now teaching the
soprano a solo. and when it is learned
he intends travelling, The soprano,
when a small leaf is thrown toward her
after song, will hop out aud pick it
up, make graceful bow, aud resume
her place. Then the alto is said to turn
green with envy. -GraSs Faltcy Tidjags
