sERENADED BY GHOSTS.
Gen. SiCkie's Father Thinks he Saw

Gen. Sickle's Father Thinks he Saw
an Orchestra of Spirits.
From the Boston Herald.
There has been report about New
York that George P. Sickles, the veteran
father of Gen. Daniel E. Sickles, had been
visited by the spirit of the late Capt.
Isaiah Rynders, who had been a life
long friend. Mr.. Sickles says he has not
yet had the pleasure of such a call, but
would not be surprised at one, in view of
the wonderful experiences which he has
enjoyed in the way of spiritual material
ization.
why" he says, Il have seen a whole
band of ST irit musicians march into this
room, heard them, too, for they played a
long time for me. First the leader en-
tered, removed his cap, bowed politely,
and asked me if I was well. was as
tonished, for did not at once compre-
hend that he was a materialized spirit.
'''Would you like to hear some good
musicY he inquired.
Il replied that l would indeed be pleas
ed if the quality was first-rate. He
threw open the door and waved in so
many men that they crowded the apart
ment. Each had a musical instrument,
and they ranged themselves in an irregu-
lar semicircle, facing the leader, who
used baton, although there were no
sheets of music. Then they played more
beautifully than anything I had ever
heard. The airs were strange to me, and
the instruments did not correspond with
those in use by living bands. The con-
cert lasted an hour or so, and then, with
bow of Chesterfield the leader mar,
/ shalled his followers out. l have nc
doubt that he was some musician famous
in history, and have searched among
the portraits of musical history to identi
fly him, but thus far without avail"
Mr.. Sickle's granddaughter, who hap
pened to be in the hallway at the mo
ment when he thinks that his strang,
visitors went out, saw nothing of them
and that conyinces him beyond doub
that they became disembodied again oil
emerging from the room. His confidence
in the normal condition of his senses a
the time cannot be shaken by argument
He is now nearly 90 years old, but quit
hale and hearty, and able to attend t
the business of his estate with full dis
cretion and vigor.

INTERESTING RELIC.
A Sample ofthe First known Cotton
Fabric in America.

/ A Sample Ofth First known Cotton
/ Fabric in America.
! There is at present in the Office of the
Director General of the exposition, says
the New Orleans Times Democrat, a
piece of cotton fabric sent from Mexico
by Mr.. Alfredo Chavera to Mgr. Gillow,
which will be placed on exhibition
shortly.
| This curious fabric has attracted the
particular attention of those VINO have
examined it, not only on account of ap-
pearance, but owing to its origin and the
history connected with it.
Mr.. Chavera, in forwarding it to Mgr.
Gillow, informs him that it was evident
| ly made by the Indians prior to the dis
covery of America. 1t was found IN a
stone box in the sepulchre near Tejupilco,
in the state of Mexico, together with a
number of little idols, sea shell, and
other trinkets. sit would appear" says
| Mr.. Chavera, "that the sepulchre dates
back to time not far anterior to the
conquest of Mexico, for in the same
stone box was found yaoyiz quivielotl.
| which | now have in my possession, and
there is every reason to believe that it
was the sepulchre of some distinguished
warrior"
This piece of cotton fabric is indeed
curious. 1t has evidently, from its ap-
pearance, been woven by hand, and at
| first inspection looks more like wool
than cotton. The thread is much coars-
er than the improved fabric of to-day,
but the work is perfectly regular, and
shows artistic workmanship.
Its great age has given it a somewhat
yellowish shade, but upon close inspec-
ton it is easily seen that originally it
was of an immaclate white.
This antique is indeed curiosity, and
will, when put on exhibition, be an OBJ
ject which will attract general attention.
Speaking of this attractive exhibit,
which shows to what remote date cotton
was cultivated in Mexico and worked
into cloth, the manner in which cotton
seed was introduced in the United States
from the very regions where this ancient
cotton fabric was found will no doubt
prove interesting.
A little over one hundred years ago an
American minister in Mexico, charmed
with the snowy staple he found in that
country, requested permission of the
Viceroy to send the seed to his country.
1t was politely but courteously denied,
as the laws IF Mexico strictly prohibited
such export. But shortly thereafter the
Viceroy remarked casually, that ''there
was no law forbidding the expectation of
dolls" The astute Yankee representa-
| tive took the hint at once, and ere long a
large consignment of miniature babies,
duly stuffed with the coveted and pre-
cious cotton seed, were on the route to
these United States, and thus was fret
established the greatest commercial
kingdom on earth-''King Cotton"

An individual, evidently connected
with the coffee trade, writes to the Medi-
cal Record to say that the colored and
polished coffee pronounced deleterious by
the Board of Health is a small matter as
compared with the sale of "poor skim
mings." Skimmings coffee is damaged
and decayed article, usually Java, which
has ''sweated" aboard ship, and thus
turns of rich brown color, though the
berry is wholly decayed and has an of
fensive odor. The ''skimmings" is dried
and mixed with sound coffee. Aquanti-
ty of it was sold on January 16 for three
quarters of a cent per pound. Three
years ago 10000 bags ofthe rotten berry
were disposed of in New York from the
wreck of the Pliny, from Rip.

YEsTERDAY-was the day set by the Mormon
rulers for revelation" from God in regard
to polygamy and the ignorant and gullible
people who form the main body of the church
are represented as looking anxiously for this
word from heaven. 1t is supposed by the
skeptical that the recent absence Of the lead
ing saints has been occasioned by the neces-
sity of preparing a revelation which will abol-
ish polygamy, and thus ward off suspicious
which may arise that the late compliance with
the laws of the country was compulsory.

A New YORK special saws:

''There has been considerable talk among
temperance people throughout the country
about the numerous hypodermic injections of
brandy which the physicians are said to have
administered Ito General Grant,. Protests
have been received by both the physicians
from the leaders of the temperance movement
against such action in the future. The truth
is that brandy has been injected but twice,
and on each occasion only one dram was
contained in the syringe 1t was the only
thing that saved the Generals life, and he
himself stated this afternoon that he would
have died Thursday morning but for its use. y
In the face of such blind, blistering idiocy,
it is impossible to speak with patience, and,
therefore, we put bride on the tongue. In
this city noted temperance woman was APP
parently sick unto death. The attending
physician deemed the administration of a
little whisky an absolute necessity, but both
the woman and her husband protested in the
name of Temperance" The stimulant was
given, however, and the womans life was
saved. These, and other instances of like
character are the flies which cause the whole
precious box of temperance ointment to stink
in the nostrils of many people, who have not
the grace to see that such cranks are simply
incorporate fools, and are in no wise repre-
sentative of any class.

master Jones.

Special to New York Commercial Advertiser
The friends of Representative Bynum, OF
Indiana, say that the true inwardness Of the re-
cent fight over the Indianapolis postmaster.
which resulted in a victory for Vice-president
Hendricks. has not yet been made public. AT
stage in the fight the Office was virtually
promised TO Mr.. Bynum for his FRIEND and there
was every prospect of success when an intima-
ton came that if Mr.. Bynum would discontinue
his fight with the Vice president he should have
the collectorship of internal revenue for his
friend, a place much more desirable than the
postmastership and with very considerable
patronage. Besides this it was a position of
very considerable political influence and gave
Mr.. Bynum hold upon districts outside his own.
With this understanding Mr. Bynum ceased his
struggle for the control of the postmastership
and Vice president Hendricks secured the place.
When the matter of the collectorship came to
be preached later, the fact came out that the
Presidents name had been used without author
ity, and that he was not party to the under
standing.
The matter was brought to his attention and
he at once made it known that he intended, and
in fact had promised, the place to Judge Holman.
This news came like bombshell, and Mr.. Hen
bricks was instantly accused of treachery. The
fight has now broken ont afresh, and Mr. Bynum
and his friends carrying on a vigorous fight
for the collectorship. Unless these differences
among the Indiana Democrats are healed it is
predicted that there will be trouble when the
next election occurs in their State.
