gramme was admirably executed; but

Thirty years ago last Thursday the
first court house in Brown county was
erected. The structure was of logs and
was built .'under the oaks" on German
street, between 3rd and 18th South
streets, where Mr.. A. w. Bingham's
residence now stands. The structure
was used for court house purposes until
1860. Public meetings were also held
therein, the last one held in the build
ing being during Lincoln's first cam
paign for the Presidency. This was the
first log house built in New Ulm.

FOR HIS SAKE.

Hold closer still my hand, dear love,
Nor fear its touch will soil thine own
No palm is cleaner now than this,
So free from earth stain has 1t grown
Since last you held it clasped so close,
And with it held my life and heart ;
For my heart beat but in your smile,
And life were death, we too apart.
/ loved you so. And you? All, well
I have no word or thought of blame;
And even now my voice grows low
And tender whispering your name.
You gauged my love by yours-that's all.
I do not think you understood
There is a point you men can't reach,
Up the white height of womanhood.
You love us-so at least you say,
With many 4 tender smile and word +;
You kiss us both on mouth and brow
Till all our heart within is stirred
And having, unlike you, you see,
No other interests at stake,
We give our best, and count that death
Is blessed, when suffered for your sake.

Orlando Sentinel.
Some one wants to know the origin of
the term 'cracker." Years ago, among
the early citizens of Georgia, was class
of people scattered through the interior
counties, who lived mainly by the large
herds of cattle they raised. These they
used to drive to market with the aid of
long whips of plated leather, generally
buckskin, made to crack 50 that they
could be heard long way off. The re-
port of these whips, resounding in the
distance, often caused the exclamation,
1.-The crackers are coming = Hence the
the name Georgia Cracker, and, as the
the application of the term grew more
extensive, 'Florida Cracker" H.

ST. PETERSBURG, April 23.-Everyone
is speaking of war as inevitable. The
question is narrowing more and more to
a purely military dispute.
The Journal de st. Petersburg, in re-
view of Sir Peter Lumsden's report to
Gladstone upon the affair between the
Russian and Afghan troops at PenJdeh,
saws that the report is based upon state
ments from Afghan sources, and If 1t
eontradicts the precise and complete re-
port previously made by General Koma-
roof. commander of the Russian forces
operating on the borders of Afghanistan,
then Gladstone need not be surprised if
Russia prefers to rely upon the testimony
of her generals.
The Journal adds: cit is useless to
pursue these polemics on subsidiary
points when the main question to be set
tied is the delinitation OF the boundary
between Russian territory and of At
ghahistan. As to her war credits, Eng
land is free to bestir herself. Russia is
calm, conscious of the gravity of the sit
uation and confident of her ability to
cope with the emergency. Russia viii
