Henry Christian, Cuba's partner in
the barber business, tells story on a
venerable relative Of his who lived down
in Mississippi jasper was his name
; and q few years ago he drew 1000
cash prize in the Louisiana lottery.
That sum was measureless wealth.
The word millions conveyed to the
guileless mind Of old Jasper no idea
Of greater wealth than did the sight Of
his 5000. lie was q wood-sawyer by
Occupation, and his first act after get
ting possession of his money was to
throw away his sawbuck and saw. He
next placed $1,000 In the hands Of q
trusty white man of business and with
the remaining $1,000 he resolved to
buy the universc-the earth alono be-
ing quite too Insignificant to engage
his attention more than passing mo-
ment.
"Well, sah," said Chris. "de way
dat ole man did lope and fro hisself
beat all. De fus' thing he did was to
bu. mis- ole woman silk dress an a
red wooden shawl. Then he went fish
in'-wouldn't carry no wums in his

Co'se he took his ole woman long, and
when he got back be jest give de hull

AT LAST.

The greatest military leader OF his day
has just yielded (at s:Os this Thursday
morning, July 23d,) to the creates, OF all
iconquerors, Death. Not the greatest OF
generals, alone, was Ulysses s. Grant, but
one Of the greatest of men also honest,
faithful, and manly, in all the walks o! life
and as grand and heroic on his death
bed as when at the head of the army, in
the heat of battle. We have already re.
peatedly given the history of Grants life,
and the events Of his great career and the
| noble and sublime features Of his charac.
ter are as familiar as household words, in
| the minds and hearts of the people.
Ulysses S. Grant was born at Pon,
| lehsaHt UNIV, Ou tHe Dhuh VI tle river Ol
that name, April 9th, 1922 and died in q
cottage on the summit Of Mt. McGregor, ten
miles from Saratoga Springs, at eight
o'clock, eight minutes, this (Thursday,
morning, July 23d, 1885. He was tn,
commander OF the Union armies in the
war of the rebellion, and led them to fna
victory. After the war he was for two
terms President of the United States, anC
afterward made journey around tn,
world, receiving greater honors and greater
marks of favor, from governments ant
peoples, than we're ever bestowed upot
any human being A united peopl
honor the great hero and, as one man
mourn their irrepsrable and suprem

Chase and Greeley In Difficulty.

When Greeley and Chase went down
to Richmond upon the indictment of

mean TO do. Mr.. Underworld" III
mean to try and hang jeff Davis" was
the reply. "ls it possible. said Chase.
that you, q judge, will give your opin-
ion in advance Of trialp This will no,
do. The counsel for JET Davis will
produce my proclamation and messages
10 the Ohio legislature, and prove that

country, and the first thing we shall
know will be that shall be convicted
and Jefferson Davis will 90 free.
can not try him now. II is already
the middle Of May. and the cholera is
in the country, it will be In Richmond
by July, and 1t Is too hot" So he put
ii of till November, Then" said he,
"the supreme court meets here in De-
cembcr; can not try him now. No
yembcr Is too cold" 1t was very evil
dent that Mr.. Chase did not want to
try him at all.
MIR. Greeley also told Judge Under
wood that jeff Davis could not be con-
victed OF treason by jury. He had in
the New York tribune denounced the
stars and stripes as "haunting lie, 4"
20 oe torn down; ho had approved the
proposition OF Gen. Banks to 'let the
Union Slide" and when John Brown
had Invaded Virginia he had proposed
TO ''let the South 90 in peacc.' He
felt that ho would be a witness against
the conviction OF Davis for treason, and
he urged his liberation on bail, promis-
ing to head the list Of sureties. This
ne did, although there was no lack Of
Responsible Virginians ready and will
ing to sign the bail-bond Of their de-
posed leader Benz ferLey Poore.
