| CHAPTER IN C0LFAX'S CAR
FER.
The Movem@0t to Make Him Editor
orthe New York Tribune

The dea.h Of Schuyler Colfax recalls
a private chapter IN his life which is
not generally known, though familiar
enough at the time in the neighbour
hosd OF Prinung-House square. After
the death of Horace Greeley in the
autumn of 1872, Samuel Sinclair, then
publisher, was, with other large stock
holders of The Tribune, anxious to put
the paper back in the regular repubh-
can ranks, believing that is.advocacy
OF liberal republieanism, with Greeley
as a candidate for the presidency
Endorsed by the democrats, Aad
greatly injured the property. They
Were willing either to sell their stock
or buy more, so as to gain control, and
while they were meditating the
question, the late William Orion,
then president of the Western Union
telegraph, proposed to buy 81 of the
100 shares of the newspaper, at $40 600
a share, ana 10 make Schuyler ColfaX
editorln-chief. The price was so
tempting that Sinclair and many other
stockholders sold out in whole or in
part; and Orion came into possession.
just at that date, Colfax was charged
with completely in the Credit Mobiier
matter, and was so discredited with
the public at large as to be Ineligible
to the journalist position. Orion was
then in an'awkward place, especially
rs he found that the principal mem
Der of The Tribune staff was so OPP
posed to his administration that they
we're ready to resign Under the
circumstances, he declared himself
ready to sell the stock at the rate he
given, with certain concessions in his
fe Tor. The result was, as is well
known, that Whitelaw Reid, with the
aid of borrowed capital, became the
controller of the paper, and has con
tnued such ever since. Orion was a
trustee Of the association for a while,
by the terms of the transfer, aud then
withdrew from it altogether. If
Colfax had been made Greely's sue
cessor, as he doubtless would have
been but for the Credit Mobilier
scandal, it would have changed the
whole course Of his later years. He
would, probably, have been alive to-
day he seems really to have died
by accident-and, perhaps, many
years hence. His nearest friends have
always believed him innocent of the
imputation put upon his public
record, and there never have been
proofs of his guilt. But he was
suspicion destroyed his political life
in a new and large field How differ
ent The Tribune would have been
too, under his direction.

Sherman at Shiloh.
lnoral Grant in February Featury

During the whole of the first day /
was continuously engaged ia passing
from one part of the field to another,
giving directions to division com
manders. In thus moving along the
line, however, | never deemed 1t inn
portant "a stay long with Sherman.
Although his troops were then under
fire for the first time, their command
err, by his constant presence with them,
inspired a confidence in officers and
men that enabled them to render SER
vices on that bloody battlefield-worthy
of the best veterans. McClernand
was next to Sherman, and the hardest
fighting was in front of these two
divisions. McClernand told me him
self on that day, the 9th, that he
profted much by having so able a
commander supporting hum. A oasu-
atty to Sherman that would have
taken him from the field that day
would have been a sad one for the
troops engaged at Shiloh. And how
near we came to thisl On the 9th
Sherman was shot twice, once ia the
hand, once in the shoulder, the ball
cutting his coat and making slight
wound, and third ball passed through
his hat In addition TO this he had
several horses shot during the day.

A Modern Oracle.

A most satisfactory modern oracle
appears to have been established at
Cairwan. the holy city Of TunIs.
II consists OF a telephone, with an
ingenious Arabic speaking French
priest at the one END and a number of
the creduIous faithful at the other.
TIE story amusingly told by the
Paris correspondent Of The London
Times, is an excellent instance how
''they as has brains always find some
opportunity for making use of them
The inventor Of the oracle was once a
member Of a monastery at Avignon
Expelled by an infdel government, he
went to Algeria and turned Trappist,
bat finding that profession apparently
too narrow for his versatile and ener-
getic nature, he subsequently had the
happy thought Of turning Mohamme-
dan. and combining the furtherance
of French political designs with the
exercise Of his new religion. Installed
as a reward for his usefulness, as the
keeper Of a kourba, or shrine, but
finding the ordinary income OF that
Office somewhat inadequate, he has
now hit on the happier thought Of in
creasing II by the introduction Of a
telephone, by which he is enabled
from his own room TO return prompt
and apparently miraculous answers
TO those who come to ask him for
Divine guidance.

Whipping Children.

CHICAGO, Feb. "a warrant was
issued this morning for the arrest Of
E. A. Barnes, principal of one of the
public chools, for the alleged NAL
treatment of twelve-year-old boy
named King. The boy is covered
with bruises, caused by whipping HIM
with large horse whip. The prin-
clpal alleges that the boy refused to
perform some duty and refused to
take off his overcoat, for which causes
the punishment was more severe than
otherwise.

One of the most startling projects of
the times is TO illumine the Atlantic
Ocean by means Of electric lights
actually to make "a path of silver
light across the water from the banks
Of Newfoundland to the shores Of
Ireland. Ten vessels are TO be
anchored at a distance Of 200 miles
from one another in straight line,
each riding at "a mushroom" anchor,
which permits the vessel swinging
round with the tide without fouling
her anchor" These light ships are
also to be connected together and to
the shore by an electric cabe, and be
able to send messages TO any part Of
the world.

SEIP-PossEsSIoS.-Selfpossession is
something apart from ability. 1t is more
in one direction and less in another.
Many persons of great abilities are pain
fully lacking in self-possession, and 9TH
ers Of very small powers are rarely at a
loss. 1t comes rather through fair de
gree of selfknowledge and practical ex-
ercise Of those abilities, great or small,
which we do possess. Our own expert
ence shows us this Most of US are self
possessed in at least one direction. and
that we shall find to be the case in which
we have had the most constant practice
and the best opportunities Of testing our
selves. The mechanic or business man
or artist or philosopher, may be unde-
cided, vacillating constrained and i'll at
ease in general society, or in political cir
cles or in a hundred other situations
but in their respective employments, or
in matters closely connected with them,
they at once assume calm and assured
manner that tells of their regained self
possession.

every detail of life and regulates our con-
duct in all the relations we bear to others.
1t pronounces upon our behavior to rela-

sideration, of kindness, of compassion, as

TUE MOLE

The mole is splendid architect and I
sure builder. 1t constructs perfect
subterranean galleries. The nest is
wonderful building, bearing imme-
diately above it as much earth
thrown up as would fill a moderate
" sized wheelbarrow. The soil root
of the nest is so strong that an OK
may with safety stand on it, in spite
of its being surrounded and intersec-
ted by runs, by which the family can
separately escape in case of sudden
danger. In one saw there were at
least, with in foot from the nest,
four main runs, and these min runs
again had three immediate branch
runs toward the nest from the wheat
field, making II within two feet of
the nest, while there were many
escape runs toward the surface
for hiding. A favorite place for nests
is about old broad hedgeIoots where
the moles have plenty of room, and
where their nests are concealed by
underground, which again protects
their surface runs from being tramp
led by the hoofs of horses and cattle.
And the moles nesting on either side
ofthe hedge stick religiously to their
own side of the field. Between the
nests and the water there is a main
run, and to an experienced eye its
only distinguishing feature is that
it is somewhat more direct than the
other runs. But the mole catcher
observes it in an instant, and he
catches most moles there at the time
when the mole are returning home
from their food or water. 1t wonder
full how the moles find their long
ways home, and it is remarkable the
distance they travel every twenty
four hours, in the ins and outs anC
confusing number Of intersectet
runs. Moles multify very fast; the!
pair for the season, and breed fou
or five times every year; and the!
are among the few animals which
have a preponderance ofmales. Thei
young run about shortly after the
are born, and are taught to run i
the main run first, the parents leaC
ing the way. The mole is said to /
affectionate, to brave death for i
offspring or its mate, and to be foun
sometimes starved to death beside
trapped mate. 1t prefers dry lOa
or sandy soil, and does not mut
frequent stiff clay soil, which is bot
wet and cold and difficult to burrc
in. For every one that is TO be foul
in clay soil ten will be found in d
loan. And it is a noteworthy ia
if true, as it is said to be, that the
are no moles in Ireland.

BONE FELoE.--0f all things, can
there be any so overwhelmingly pain
full as bone felon? we know of none
that flesh is heir to, and, as this
malady is quite frequent the subject
of much earnest consideration, we
give the latest recipe for the cures
As soon as the disease is felt, put
directly over the spot fly blister
about the size of your thumb nail,
and let it remain for six hours, at
the expiration of which time, direct
ly under the surface of the blister,
may be seen the felon, which can be
instantly taken out with the point
of a needle or a lancet.
How TO TREAT A CoLD.-When
you get chilly all over and away into
your bones, and begin to sniffle and
almost struggle for your breath, just
begin in time, and your tribulation
need not last very long. Get some
powdered borax and snuff dry pow
der up your nostrils. Get a camphor-
bottle smell it frequently; pour some
on your handkerchief, and wipe your
nose with it whenever needed. Your
nose will not get sore, and you will
soon wonder what has become OF
your cold. Begin this treatment in
the forenoon and keep on at inter.
walls until you go to bed, and you
will sleep as well as you ever did
I'm just telling my experience, says
correspondent.
