thousand knows it, and very few would
recognize this portrait as being that of Grant.
because very few people ever saw him in
this style of beard or saw his picture in this
way. He only wore his beard in this way
for a short time. 1t was during his first
term as President that he shaved in this
way, but only wore his beard in this manner
for a few months. am very glad he did
even for so short a time though, for it gives
us a better idea of his face than we could
have had without it. His face is, as you see,
a very fine one, and showing strong charac-
ter, fine, clearly cut lips and a small but
pleasant mouth and full projecting chin.

is also customary to make engrayings of all
Cabinet officers"
Here is the portrait of Grant. The picture
was made during his first term, as stated
above. He did not wear his beard in this
style for any considerable time. He did not
find it so satisfactory either TO himself or to
his friends and family as the full beard of his
war DAYS The portrait will be, however,
greatly priced, for it really presents better
index to his character than did his full

The call for Grants Cabinet officers to at
tend the funeral brings to the surface some
interesting facts about them. 1t is curious
fact that only one out of the twenty-five
men who were in the Cabinet during Grant :
terms is now prominent in public life. This
one is Don Cameron, who was Secretary OF
War after Belknap. Cameron did not cut
much OF figure Secretary of War. In
fact he does not make much OF an impression
upon the average observer in his present
position as Senator, place which will bring

FAITH IN PRAYER.
The Remarkable Cure of Helpless Invalid
i'm South Carolina.

EDGEFIELD, S. c.. August 1.-Great interest
is manifested here over faith cure, in which
the lady cured is of such high standing as to
render her assertions worthy OF credence.
The person is Mrs. Clemantine Morgan, wife
of Mr. j. G. Morgan. ssMorgan is the
daughter of Rev. Mark NJ. Boyd, and a sister
of Reverends Geo. Marion and pet Boyd,
of the South Carolina Conference. Mrs.
Morgan is now forty-three years old, and has
been an invalid for many years. Her Attic
ton commenced at the age of sixteen, and
consisted of q gradual loss of the muscular
power of the lower limbs. The affection APP
peared first in her knees, and extended I'M
til in few years she was an Invalid, unable
to get up or down or scarcely walk across the
floor without assistance. Nine years ago she
fell down an ordinary stairway and broke
her right ankle and right arm. The
fractured limbs healed, but Mrs. Nor
gan was more helpless than before.
Three and a half years ago she received an
another fall. She was standing up, support
ing herself by the bed. The bed was acct
dentaIly moved. This threw her from her
balance. and being unable TO move either
foot, soc fell backward to the floor breaking
her left thigh and sustaining other injuries
natural from her heavy weight and utterly
HELPLESS condition. Since this accident, while
retaining partial use of her hands and
arms. although unable to get them to her
head, she has been completely helpless IN
body unable to turn herself in bed or lift her
feet from the floor. Her rolling chair has
been her constant companion by day, and
from this size was placed in her bed at night,
and she moved only as she was assisted. Her
spine was stiff and curved backwards and
one OF her feet was drawn sideways, 80 that

service. Yet he is one of the most observed
and asked for of any man in the Senate. He
is about the last man in that body you
would pick out for Don Cameron, for he
does not justify in his appearance the name
he has as shrewd politician. A rather tall,
very slender looking with heavy brown
mustache, with a young face and boyish
manner, he is rather a surprise 10 those who
ask for him from the galleries of the Senate.
lie seldom makes a speech in the Senate, and
is not often heard OF as a prominent advo-
cate of any political measure. How odd it
is that man of this sort. with no apparent
force OF character or faculty of making a
record should be the only one OK the
party of twenty-five who were members of
Grants Cabinet still remaining in public
life in national sense at least. Six of the
twenty-five are dead. One, Hon. Alphonso
Taft, of Ohio, is just returning from his term
of service as Minister Ia Russia and Austria.
Williams is practicing law in Oregon. Tyner
divides his time between Iowa and Wash
ington. Crisell holds o position of minor
importance to which he was appointed by
President Arthur, but which seldom brings
him TO the surface. Delano and Cox, of
Ohio. are giving their time to their pro-
LESSONS at home. Robson has been retired
by his constituents, and is practicirg law.
Belknap is doing sort of lobbying business
here, about the halls OF Congress in winter,
and in the departments in summer Sher-
man has retired from his place at the head
OF the army, and is now in st. Louis. Bris-
tow is practicing law in Kentucky.
OF the twenty-five who were in Grants
Cabinet, the one who was longest i'm the Cab
met was George NJ. Robson, Secretary OF

Napoleon and Grant.
From the Atlanta Constitution.

Like Gen. Grant, the first Napoleon died
OF cancer. In his case the cancer was in the
stomach instead of the throat. 1t caused
him much severer pain than Grant suffered
Toward the last he could not digest his food
He was tormented by constant thirst. His
pulse beat with feyerish quickness He
improved, grew worse, and had all the hope
depression and despair that marked Grants
illness Unlike the American soldier, he did
not retain his mental faculties to the last
The circumstances were different. Napo-
leon was a vanquished man, a prisoner, de-
serted by his wife, and surrounded only by
the members of his military family. His
last words referred to his son and the army
Grant not only suffered less, but his last
hours were frightened by thousand loving
words and tributes from wife and children
old army comrades, his former fees. and the
most distinguished men of the world.

THE WILD ROSE.
10 A YOUNG FaIEND.


Fair as the flowers the tardy spring.
At last fulfilling all our hope.
With largess late, is wont 80 Hing
Along our Northern slope.
For Us the cOwslip sheds its gold;
FOruS the May-flOwer breatheS perfume;
And in our meadows low aud cold
White violets bloom
But some respondent morn OF June,
When sunbeams thrill with feryid power,
Aud waves chant murfaurous tune,
Come, see orr perfect flower
From sunset skies OF molten red
Her deeply glowing hues were wrought;
From pearly shell in ocean : bed
Her paler tints were caught.
Her tender scenery gently fills
With graceful sOftened shape
The outline of the rugged hills
AL round our cape.
She flashes in the deepest wood;
We trace her by the brOOklets edge:
But most where pillows harsh and rude
Beat on the cruel ledge.
Her countless smile we love 10 greet;
Lies central radiance through her flows:
Her fragrance makes the east wind sweet
Our beautiful Wild Rose.
SO, to our Duty's sober days,
BY salt waves Tapped. by sharp erags torn
So. to our sombcr shaded ways
Set round by brake and thorn
In modest pride OF gracious youth.
With heart of love, with soul serene,
With dewy purity and truth.
She comes, our Byzantine.

Payment to singers has sometimes taken
an odd form. When Mile. Zeile vocalist

The Nicollet club took possession of its new
club house last night, but in a very jolly and
informal style. There was nothing 10 mark
the evening in the line of set programme.
and the members simply took possession of
their new quarters and proceeded to enjoy
themselves the very best they knew how.
The club was organized last October, and
finally took for quarters the house recently
vacated by Maj. Camp. The Minnesota club
was the name first chosen, but 10 avoid col
iision with the st. Paul club of the same
name, the word Minnesota was changed to
Nicollel, by which the club will be hereafter
known. 1t is purely social in
its character The mem berShip is now

concerning the bankruptcy sale. Mr.. lnnes,
Mr.. Remington's agent, who was present,
could alone testify 10 the quit claim deed by
Mrs. King to Mr.. Remington in 1879, and
Mr.. Remington would know very
little about the matter. Ii
his testimony, however, was necessary
his deposition could be taken on any point,
until he could be present
Judge Shaw for the defense said that the
basis of the plaiutiffs's cases rested upon Ger
tain agreements between Mr.. King and Mr..
Remington, concerning which they alone can
testify, so the appearance of the latter was Of
the utmost Importance. The plaintiff had
caused unnecessary delay 10y filing an
amended complaint which required an almost
entirely new answer.
Judge Young said that it was important
that the hearing of the case should not be de-
laved, for continuance over the term would
make it impossible to take. it up before July.
He would therefore wait until tomorrow so
that ii could be ascertaiped when Mr.. Rem
ington could be present.
