An Impudent English View.

From tbs london Spectator.
/ am morally convinced that Bis
natck's present colonial policy has
chiefly arisen from the Laskor incident.
He can not pardon the Americans for
having bestowed such high national
distinction upon the little lawyer who
was his great opponent in the Reichstag.
TIE although only temporary recall
OF the American ambassador from Der
lin greatly irritatea Bismarck. lie
therefore seems to be bent up6n taking
his revenge upon the Americans by ai-
yerting the course of German emigra-
tion. The Germans are, in fact almost
more necessary for the Americans than
America for the Germans. Some time
ago an American Statesman vas asked
how long he thought than he American
republic will last, and the answer vs.,
AS long as the German emigrants will
flock to the United States. The
Teutouic element IL, IN fact nee,
essary there to counteract the con-
stantly increasing influence of the
Irish party. Now Bismarck, who knows
perfectly well what is going on abroad,
believes that 10y diminishing the German
emigration to America he would inflict
great injury on the United States, and
it is for this reason that he endeavors to
open new channels TO the unceasing
stream of the German emigration. Be
sides the German Americans exercise a
certain political influence on their
countrymen who stick to their native
soil. They imbue them with liberal, if
not with republican principles. All
this will be averted by founding new
colonies. If they assume large dimen-
sions, they will be turned into little
monarchies; so not only the Germans
at home, but also those abroad, will be
in a position TO enjoy the blessings
of a monarchical government, under
some princelet, of whom Germany has
still scores TO spare.

Grants Love for Horses.
Carp in Cleveland Leader.

Carp in Cleveland Leader
Grants love for horses is a matter OF
history. He was fine horseback rider
as q boy at his little country home in
Georgetown, O., through which he low
ed to ride standing in his bare feet on u
sheepskin tied to the back of his horse.
The only thing he really excelled in at
West Point was his riding. He was
the most daring rider of the school and
in jumping the bar the officers who were
accustomed 10 hold the bar over which
the horses were TO go as low as their
waists for the others put it up even with
and above their heads when it was
Grants turn to jump. He saved his
life in Mexico by his riding abilities by
throwing himself at the side instead of
stsying on the back of his horse, and
when he was in the White House his
horses were the wonder Of Washing
ton.
Grants Arabian horses are, think,
on Gen. Beal's farm, near Washington.
They were given him by the Sultan while
ne was in Turkey in 1878. The Sultan
had taken him over his palaces and
BIODutls, anu uulSHtb up WIN lAlH hNh-
bles. He had his attendants show off
his finest h or ses, and asked Grant to
pick out the finest for hims elf, telling
him he would make him a present OF it.
Grant at first was reluctant to accept so
valuable q gift, but one of the Sultan's
officers iDterposed, telling him he
would offend his majesty by a refusal.
He then selected dapple gray Arabian
steed, and the Sultan formally pre-
scented it to him. The Sultan after
ward sent it TO him at New York, add
ing to his present another Arabian as
black as jet and as magnifcentin form
as the one Grant had chosen. The two
horses arrived III New York in the lat
ter part of the following year, and
sporting men admired them greatly.
They were taken to a blacksmith's to
be shod, and many persons came TO see
them, trying TO buy their old shoes or
even the nails as momentoes. When
the horses were taken from the boat to
the stables, one of them kicked a spoke
from a carriage which they passed, and
it cost Grant $l2 to pay the damages.

A Little Matter from Maine.

A farmer of this town, after the
pastursge became poor, turned his
flock of sheep into the orchard, where
the grass was heavy and the trees
laden with apples. One old sheep,
with lamb, regularly selected trees,
and IN ways best known to herself
managed to mount upon her hind feet
and to knock off apples, which she and
the lamb ate with great gusto. The
farmer hobbled the forefeet, but the
animal did just as well as before in
knocking off apples; the hind feet
were hobbled, but with no better sue
cess, and the last resort was to hobble
one hind and one fore foot, and then
the game was up. She was watched,
and this was seen: The lamb mounted
upon her back. the sheep marched
under the apple tree, and the lamb
