A poet speaks of grass as "the hair
that covers the face of nature" If
this is reliable, Nature is to be con
graduated. She doesn't have to pay
out very much for barber bills SO long
as the lawn mower takes its regular

BLAINE, ON GEN. GRANT.

James G. Blaine closed his oratiou, dc livered at Augusta, Ne, upon the occasion of memorial services to the dead General, as follows:
 For moro than twenty years from the death of Lincoln to the closs of his own life General Grant vss the most conspieuoua character in America-ons to whom leaders looked for leadership; upon whom part. sans built their hopes of victory; to whom personal friends by the tens of thousands offered their devotion. It was according to weakness and strength of human ns- ture that counter movements should en- sue. that General Grant's primscy should be challenged; that hls party should bs resisted; that his devoted friends should bs confronted by iealou. men in his own ranks, and by bitter enemies in the ranks of his opponents. But all these resentments arc buried in the grave which to-day rsoeivss his remains. The contention respecting his rank as Commander ceases. and Unionists and Confedsrates alike testify to his proweas in bottle and his magnanimity in peace. The controversy of his civil administration closes, a Democrats and Republicans unite in pronouncing him to have been in every act and every aspiration an American patriot.

GERONIMO AND HIS INDIANS.

Captain Fl. M. Kendall, conmandina
 troop A of the Sixth eavarly, vas in the
 city yesterday, stopping st the European
 hotel, on his way from the Indian front
 in Old Mexico to Fort Wingate. Those
 who think that the soldiers have been
 having picnic down in that country have
 only to look at this brorsed officer with hia
 threadbare and weather beaten uniform to
 be undeceived. His personal appearances gives every indication of hard and trying service, Captain Kendall has been with Crawford's command, and the, penetrat- cd into Old Mexico through . country of terrible roughness, where great privstiops
 were endured. Captain Kendall says the Apschee have all broken up into small
 bands, and ke thinks all but three families will make their way back to the reserva. tion. Geronimo, Msngua and Matches
 with their families, he thinks will not come back across the Mexican line. Cap tain Kendall says that Mangus and not Geronimo, is the real leader of the hostilss. but Geronimo has been cfdeited with leadership because he was better known and was an older man. Speaking of the late battle between the Mexican troops and the Yaqui Indians in Sonora, the cap tain says that the Mexicans were butcher ed in . horrible manner, and ars reported down there to have loss fully . thousand men. The w:ly Indians entieed them into cleared spot in the oenter of , large and from the protection of the thick canes surrounding the slaughter pen shot them down as though they were dogs in . pound.-Albuquerque Journal.

Five months ago, or thereAbout, the grandest legislative body knownjclosed its session at the City Hall. Some of the crudest laws were passed at that session that were ever placed on the statute book. Now we find . court of justice occupying the same hall, trying to settle judicial questions and to interpret the tzue meaning of some of the meaningless bills introduced and passed by tho inglor. ious Thirteenth. Judge Howard holds the situation. but strange a it may appear, little messenger in the shape oi an cave swallow is in constant attendance and no doubt is an angel messenger sen, from an unknown source to assist m un- ravelling the mysterious laws which ema mated from the minds of thirty-six illus trions men last January end February.
