PHOTO.PORTRAIT
&c N. u. S. GRANT,
tex24 Inches.

There are many portraits of GEN GRANT, as
there were of GEORGE WASHINGTON, but the por-
trait OF Grant by BogaIdus, taken just after his
return from the trip around the world when at
the zenith of his fame, i'll the prime of life and
III perfect health is the only one that will be
known in the future The portrait of Washing
ton by Stuart is the one known to the masses;
even children recognize ii before they know the
alphabet The portrait of OUR OLD COMMANDER,
as taken al the time refer TO, is the one that
will live in the minds of the people ofthe country
he saved. Millions saw Gen. Grant at about the
time this was taken. Even though Gen. Grant
shall happily be spared to his country for another
generation, he can never have a portrait taken
that will fill the popular eye and heart as this one
does, taken when at his best. Hence this will be
the portrait of history. No steel engraving or oil
painting can compare, as a likeness, with the
photograph-the mirror of the face.
No one can look at the portrait without dis
covering the signs of character that won battles
during the war, and of late has driven death
from his door when all others quailed with fear.
We have published this portrait as sort of Eas-
ter card of joy at the probable recovery of the
Nations Old Soldier. l. is not for sale. L Will

The seed division of the agricultural
department at Washington is conducted
in peculiar manner. An appropriation
of 100000 was made for this division on
an estimate of $4,000 for the purchase
of seeds and $50, 900 for their distribution.
But $50, 200 were spent for seeds and
now there is no fund available for their
distribution. The manner of purchasing
seems to be wholly unbusiness.like.
Some pease cost as high as 81 per bushel,
and the price of sorghum seed ranged
from 1926 to 81 per bushel, and the
chemist of the department states that
when the purchase was made the seed
sold in the market for 25c. per bushel
and that 81 would have been an extra
ordinary good price for the best quality.
The sorghum and beet sugar seeds are no
new variety and there is no purpose in
sending them out as there is nothing to
be tested. This division is evidently a
great humbug and indeed the entire
agricultural department seems to be con-
Quoted 80 as to secure the least good

FRED DOUGLASS attended DIR. Sunder-
lands church at Washington one week
ago last Sunday and again put in an ap-
pearance on Sunday last. It is the same
church which Cleveland attends. A
tremendous sensation was caused because
this man who lifted himself up from
slavery to position which may well be
the envy Of the snobs who refused to enter
their pews because colored man was
in the church. "Some of the ladies
declined to attend service" because the
Douglssses were present" There is the
modern spirit Of christianity. There
might be an honest prejudice difficult to
overcome, against associating with
colored man; but when the worship of
God has become SO arristocratic that the
presence of negro makes it distasteful,
it is time the worship were discontinued.
Fred Douglass has been considerable of
demagogue. He has used his color to
promote his own interests and his people
have been largely the tools of his
ambition. But his brains have lifted
him from position which if occupied by
the fashionable wiseacres whose prayers
were of too refined a nature to ascend to
the throne of grace in company with those
of a despised race, they 0he wiseacres)
would be begging their bread, or living
by theft to-day. What an idea of God
those people must have, and how exalted
must be their ideas of propriety!

The south has a new evangelist who
gives promise of being more successful
than Moody. He is a man of very little
education, but full OF enthusiasm and
sincerity. 1t is said that he has had
audiences of 5000 people. Many of the
papers quote some of his sayings which
are full of meat, though ct times rather
coarse. For instance be describes the
elegance which speaks Of hell Is the
''burnt district" as "the dignity which
is the starch of q shroud."

Some sensational stories are out con-
corning Riel's rebellion. 1t is stated that
the Irish were instrumental in kicking up
the row by means of the French govern
ment. The French nation is anxious to
have French Canada secede from the
English Dominion and encouraged Reil
in order to foster spirit favorable to a
distinct national feeling among the
French settlers.

THE New York Legislature has gone
quite distance in granting special favors
to the "old soldier" There is civil
service law in that state requiring ex-
aminations for positions. The Legislature
passed law exempting cold soldiers"
from the examination. The democr
stole the republican thunder as the bill
originated with that party and received
its strongest support from them. The
legislature of Pennsylvania passed the
bill giving sold soldiers" tombstones and
burial at public expense, over Gov.
Pattison's veto.

The cause which impelled Hattie
Bedient to commit suicide has at last
been revealed. She fell in love with a
merchant, who returned her affection
only to enjoy her favors without any in
tention of marrying her. He afterwards
married another girl, but Miss Bedient's
infatuation was such that she had covert
meetings with him. A young man to
whom she was engaged, severed the en-
gagement because of the intimacy with
the merchant and the poor girl WAS
driven to suicide because of the loss of
reputation.

JOHN L. SULLIvAN's answer to his
wife's complaint in her proceedings for
divorce must have had its origin in hu-
NOR. He charges his wife with cruelty
and habits of into1ication. How the big
brute whose profession is to practice
cruelty must have suffered when being
thumbed over by his wife! And how
shocked he must be to see the wife of
his bosom half seas over with drink
