When delegation of Congressman call
ed upon the President few weeks ago to
urge the appointment of one of their con-
stituents for the position Of Government
Printer they were informed that no change
would be made in that Office until after the
adjournment of Congress, inasmuch as it
would be manifestly absurd to remove the
head of great workshop like the printing
Office during the busiest season of the
year for the sole purpose of creating n
vacancy. The President is reported as
saying that if Congress shall remain in ses-
sion until August the time will be too lin
tied between that period and reassembling
for Mr.. Rounds successor to properly
familiarize himself with his new duties.
The construction which Mr.. Rounds
friends put upon this statement is that
that gentleman will be asked to retain his
present position until next March.

Nor gather the sounds OF a pealing bell.

Nor call back years that have long gone by.

Nor trust the hand that hath done a crime.

We deem it entirely safe to say that
nine-tenths of all men over 40 years

wealthy in communities where they
reside commenced life poor, counted
with care every dime they earned, and
carefully guarded and economical that
dime. They made their wealth in the
same way that is open to every Amer
lean youth of the land. We do not
forget that some may have made
their wealth by questionable and
wrongful methods in part, and where
that is the case envy them not, we
certainly do not. We are OF those
who believe that ill-gotten gain brings
q curse sooner or later, the trail Of
the serpent lies within it. Happiness
may sit beside the table OF the wealthy,
dwell within the richly adorned bed

occupant Of the cushioned and state
" carriage, but oftener it sits about
the frugal meal Of the Industrious, pa

and surroundings dispense the good

From the Nashville Union.
There is no doubt of the fact that
the President looks better when you
see him out driving now than he has
looked since he came to Washington.
He is the picture of health and con-
tentment. AS for Mrs Cleveland, she.
is picture. Her usually rather pale
face is flushed by the drive, her delicate
ly-curved lips, rosy and bewitching
are wreathed in smiles. Her head is
surmounted by dainty bonnet, or
sometimes q jaunty hat. Her dress,
which is generally of some quiet tint,
fits faultlessly a faultless figure. Both
she and the President seem to take
a keen interest in whatever goes
on about them. The look ofstolidity
and curious reserve has disappeared
from the Presidents face, and he looks
about him and he drives about the
city with a new interest This is prob
ably in part because of the more
agreeable and vivacious companion
than he had in the days of his bach
elor drives, and partly from the fact
that he has become q landowner in
the district of Columbia. There is
nothing like personal and proper ty
interest to brighten up the attention
toward passing objects. Every
knows the Presidents rig from affair,
not that they can discern the Presi-
dent as quickly or that they can even
tell the seal-browns at a glance, but
there is one feature of the turnout on
which they never make a mistake; it
is ALBERT" q big, broad shouldeled
honest-faced fellow, with face as
black as it is honest, and rare skill
IN the management of horses. You
may know that he is agood driver, for
President Grant trusted him. Grant
brought Albert with him when he
came to the White House, and if ever
there was q man in the ex ecutive man
sion who knew how a horse ought to
be managed his name was Grant. Al
bert was with Grant during his entire
eight years in the White House, and
would probably haveleft there withhim
had the general boen intending to es-
tablish himselfin home at once. As
it was, however, Albert stayed at the
White House. He drove for Hayes.
he drove for Garfield he drove for
Arthur, and now he is driving for
Cleveland. So, when, the citizens of
Washington see Albert's honest face
and broad shoulders on the box of
any carriage they at once say: ''The
Presidents team" and all eyes are in
that direction; for even Washington,
which has had president all it's life,
never gets tired staring at him, no
matter what his name or how familiar
his face.

all that beauty OF face and form, that
fascination OF manners and the varied
accomplishments of music and Ian
guages for which she was so famous
as q maiden in the little republican
court OF the gubernatorial Office at
Columbus, and later in the broader
sphere of the cabinet circle at the ma
tons capital. Her manner in society
may be somewhat mellowed, there
may be slight trace of the sadness
of her womanhood resting upon her
classic features; but whether remem-
bered as Miss Katherine Chase or rec

of manners" Mrs. Chase was asked:
