Cleveland Leader.

Cleveland Leader.
The Tennessee legislature is discussing
the ACCESSIBILITY of selling the Hermitage,
Andrew Jackson's estate to the United
States to be used as soldiers home. | am
told that, as it now is. the estate is ne
elected, and that it has few of the beauties
it possessed when Old Hickory lived, and
when he said his wife Rachel rode to and
from it in his SO, 500 coach. General Brink
erhoff, now one of the leading Democrats of
Central Ohio, was a tutor at the Hermitage
Immediately after the death OF Andrew
Jackson | met him at his home in Mans
field, o., and we had long talk about that
interesting period of his life. 1.-THE Her
mitage," said he was a much different
place at the time jackson died than it is
now. 1t lies twelve miles from Nashville.
1t was magnificent estate, comprising one
thousand acres of rich land, the most OF
which was under the highest cultivation.
1t resembled one of the fine English home
steads ofthe present day. 1t was finely laid out
and the mansion had in front of it park of
several acres so arranged in drives and foot
paths that the visitors entering it came to
the house through avenues OF cedar.
"Andrew JacksOn's home was a large
brick building, with number OF pillars at
each end of it. 1t had long verandas and a
hall ran through the center. AS you entered
this hall at the left were the parlors and,
back of them, in 0ne-story wing, was the
dining-room. On the right were two rooms,
the first of which had been the especial
property of the general and the other,
across narrow hall, that of Andrew Jack
son, Jr., aud his wife. At the end of the
little hall was the library, which looked out
upon the garden and the tomb OF Mrs.
Jackson"

Selling Out.

Mr.. J. K. Mansfield, proprietor of the
well-known jewelry house of Frohne d
Mansfield. at 149 East Third street, has. on
account of the death of his partner, who
took an active part in the business, con-
Guided to sell, during the next thirty days,
as much of his stock of goods
as possible at actual cost, so that
he may reduce the stock before
making final sale, which will soon follow,
as he intends to retire from the business.
The stock, which consists of fine watches,
diamonds, jewelry of all descriptions, silver
ware, bronze clocks, ETC., is one of the
largest in the Northwest, and rare oppor-
tunity is afforded those who wish to pro-
cure such articles on account of the great
sacrifice which is made in prices. The line
of watches, diamonds and rings is particu-
larly worthy of notice on account OF. its COM
pleteness. The stock is worth nearly
$50, 200.

Before the Fight.

Before the Fight.
Billy Wilson yesterday told GLOBE re-
porter some Of the details Of the system of
training he was undergoing. The young
Hercules was very communicative, and the
substance of the interview is given below:
II turn out in the morning about 1870,
take a crust of bread and then walk a
couple of miles. When [ return breakfast
is ready. consisting of about a pound and a
half of rare mutton chops, homemade oat
meal bread and a cup of tea without milk
or sugar. To allow time for digestion / sit
around for an hour and read the papers.
Afterward [ dress in heavy fan
nels. put on heavy walking shoes,
and with my trainers, Mr.. Barnes
and Prof. Hadley, row down the river
seven miles, where we have quiet and
pleasant training ground. The three of us
disrobe, and l fight Barnes and Hadley in
turn, with soft gloves, for about an hour. I
then do an hours walking, running and
using the skipping-rOpe. Downing the
hannels again, l row the party back, keep
ing against the current, and when we ar
rive | run to the house. | am in a
heavy perSpiratiOn when home is reached,
and | take a cold shower bath and am
rubbed dry until my skin is thoroughly
warmed. | dress in lighter garments, and
half an hour thereafter have an appetite
for my dinner of rare roast beef, dry toast
and cup of milk. For the next two
hours amuse myself, after which brisk
walk is taken as far as Merriam park and
return, in company with Barnes and
Hadley, and l spar four rounds
with each after we get back, four rounds of
light. quick boxing. After this l take a
salt Water sponge bath, not letting the
water remain long upon me. A dry set of
clothes and [ am ready for my supper of
two soft-boiled eggs, with stale bread, a
plate of oatmeal porridge and cup of milk.

And he certainly looked as if he could
do that very thing. AS he says, he is in
prime condition. His muscles are hard as
iron, and his fist is to all appearances of
just as unyielding material. His eyes are
bright and his movements quick, and if the
young fellow keeps his head in the coming
Cardiff fight he will make one of the tough

other bunch of envelopes and more paper.
This, too, he pocketed saying, ''tlianks."
Two or three stamps were then sent him
and met a like reception. A cigar
and matches taken to him on little tray
were thankfully received, while a half
dozen OF so loungers began to catch on and
smile at his cool cheek. Ehle then ordered
a cocktail sent to him, and as the stranger
drank it he said, ''Who sent these?"

The Rice Park Concert.

Mr.. Seibert with his Great Western band
gave the people of st. Paul last night such
a concert as has seldom been given in this
city by any similar organization. The Sc
lections were excellent and varied, includ-
ing the triumphal march from the opera
''Maccabeus," the Snowflake waltz, a
beautiful overture by Keller Bella. selection
from ''Stradella'. and 1.-The Night Wan
derer." Mr.. Seibert took advantage of
the presence of musicians from outside
who are here in attendance on he,Senger-
bund, and introduced several new instru-
mentS. The band stand was not large
enough, really, to hold all the musicians,
and they were badly crowded. The COM
bination made grand music. An immense
crowd was present, and when the band was
playing the fpace about the band stand be-
ing packed with listeners.

The rapidly increasing proportions of
West st. Paul have never been so strongly
impressed on the minds of ex-Ald. P. ii.
Kelly and Aid. Van Slyke as on Monday
evening last. Together they drove over to
the circus and hitched their horse short
distance from the main pavilion. When
they returned for the animal they took the
wrong street, and for exactly an hour and
ten minutes trudged around before finding
the spot where the horse was tied.

Struck by the number of children at the

There's one thing the city council ought
to do, and that is engage band for the season
to play program here every Saturday af-
ternoon. s2Of course they wont do it be-
cause there's a kick about spending what it
takes to pay for these concerts. But if
there were concerts the place would be
crowded with the children and the little
folks would enjoy themselves immensely"
