A.GOOD STORY.
An Anccdote Illustrating the Courage Of
the Late President Garfield.

An Anccdote Illustrating the Courage Of
the Late President Garfield.
A retired army officer of high rank
told me a new story about Garfield's
canal days. The subject which brought
ont the story was the question as to
whether President Garfield possessed
much moral courage. The officer said:
whether James A. Garfield had moral
courage in high degree or not do
not know. l am sure he possessed a
remarkable amount ofphysical courage,
and l heard of an instance of this while
he was yet in Congress. 1t was on the
Pittsburgh, Fort Wayne d Chicago
road. | was coming from Chicago to
Washington. Aswe neared Fort Wayne
a gentleman came into the sleeper, and,
asking my permission, sat down beside
me. In the course of conversation he
informed me that he was division
superintendent of the line, and upon
learning that was going to Washing
ton he asked: And how is Jimmy Gar
field getting along down there?' ItoId
him was acquainted with Representa-
tive Garfield, and he then went on to say
that he had been the Captain of a canal
boat in connection with which Garfield
as boy WAS driver. He said that Garfield
was very brave at that time-that he
would fight any fellow that dared knock
a chip off his shoulder. One Saturday
night. said he, when we tied the boat
up to stop for Sunday. Jimmy came to
me and asked if he might not leave the
boat until starting time the next day, as
he wanted to go to q little town about
twelve miles off. | gave him permits
sion and away he went. The next day
shortly after noon he came back with n

the matter. and he told me there was
boy in the village where he had been
who boosted to friend of his some
months previous that he could whip
Jim Garfield out of his boots, and that
he had decided that rs soon as he got the
chance TO 20 to the town he would give
him the opportunity of doing so. He
had walked all that twelve miles and
back again merely to fight the boy. and

turned to Washington l told Garfield

BISMARCK AT HOME.
How the Man of Blood and Iron Appeared
to a Stranger.

How the Man of Blood and Iron Appeared
to a Stranger.
The Chancellor's wife, tall, aristo-
cratic-looking woman, with decided but
pleasing features, and in an elegant
though simple toilet, received each
guest as he arrived with gracious affa-
bility. Standing close beside the open
portieres. past which the eye glanced
into the family living rooms, she was a
true type of the position she holds both
in home and public life A noble wife
and mother, she has faithfully stood by
her husbands side from the very COM
mencement of his political career.
A Chicago paper declares that Bis
narck's wife is her husbands private
secretary! How far this statement is
true we do not pretend to say, but an
old friend of the family has repeatedly
told us that during the saddest time
that Germany has witnessed for the
last fifty years, when Bismarck, dis
heartened and dispirited, retired to his
small property of Schonhaussn, there
to vegetate as a small Prussian land
owner, while brooding modify over
all his grand political schemes, his wife
never for a moment lost heart, but was
able to inspire her husband with ever
fresh courage and hope. A number of
old friends and acquaintance quickly
surrounded the noble hostess, while the
remainder of the guests streamed on
toward the billiard room to the right,
the windows of which look out on the
street. In front of one of the sofas lies
a handsome bear skin-the animal was
slain by Bismarck's own hand; and on
a bracket stands the magnificent vase,
with the Kings portrait and view of
his castle, which King William pre-
sented to the Prince after the wars of
1866. The crowd and the heat increased
every moment The Prince, we were
told. was in the big saloon. Hurrying
thither, we saw our noble host, standing
Just inside the door, in animated con-
verse with some earlier arrivals, yet,
notwithstanding, quite ready to greet
every newcomer sometimes even
stretching out both hands to right and
left with hearty welcome. How well
and bright he looked! That was
always the first thing that struck one
on seeing this man. His face, from his
long country sojourn at Varzin, has re-
gained its healthy coloring, the eyes
are no longer SO deeply Swallowed
by the overhanging brows or the fur
rowed forehead of last year, his hair is
of that light Saxon hue which defies
both time and impertinent curiosity.
and the figure is as firm and upright
as the youngest man there present.
On this evening he also wore his ia
-vorite and most comfortable dress-that
is, uniform, but not in strict accordance
with regulations Chambers Journal.
