And so General McClernand "gets

man, providing liberal salary ana re-
quiring him 10 do nothing. There is in
the gift of the President no Office better
fitted for a man of McClernand's years
and capabilities than the one to which
he has been appointed. 1t is much

with scarcely enough 10 do to keep his
body and mind in healthy condition.
and younger and more active man in
the executive Office. 1t has been said
an along that the new man would be
chairman of the Commission, but that's
a matter to be determined by the board,
and not by the President. The board
elected Governor Ramsey chairman,
but it does not follow that the Gov
ernor's successor in the Commission
will necessarily be his successor as pre-
siding officer. Since Ramsey retired
Judge Carleton has been chairman, and
1T is the impression among those IA
miliar with the members of the Com
mission, that Carleton will be retained
in his place. However, it matters
little as to the chairman, his vote count
ing no more than that Of any other
member. The Commission is expected
10 meet in this city soon after the con-
frination OF General McClernand.

Is IT true, or is it libel, these hints
which are thrown out. that the officers
of the courts have access to the mails
for the purpose of obtaining informa-
ton TO aid them in instituting prosecu-
tons against the Mormons2 We can
not accept the suggestion as true, and
yet a good many letters miscarry now
a-dsys, and others show evidence of
having been tempered with before they
reach their owners. While the suspi-
cion exists, and while private letters are
stolen from the mails and published in
4 newspaper, and the District Attorney,
the Marshal and the Grand Jury all re-
fuse TO make an effort to learn whoSs the
thief, it would be well enough for people
who don't want their communications
to9all into the hands of those for whom
they are not intended. to patronize the
express company more and the mail
service less. The express company pro-
tects its patrons, and there is no District
Attorney to stand between the thieves
and justice.

the thirst of fevered tongue, and prostrate upon that bed of suffering lay the form which in the new world had ridden at the head of conquering columns; in the old world had marched through the palaces of crowned heads with the descendants of 8 in his presence. His ear caught the sound of the movement of marching men. The bands were playing the grand strains that had mingled with the echo of his guns at Vicksburg, playing the same quicksteps to which his men had stepped in hot haste in pursuing Lee through Virginia; and then came the measured step swinging past of trained men which seemed to shake the earth. He understood it all then. It was the approaching tread of the old veterans. He seized his crutch with his little remain ing strength and dragged himself painfully and slowly to the window. As he saw the battle-fags dipping to him in salute he once more drew himself into the position of 8 soldier, and as he gazed upon those banners, bullet-riddled, battle stained, many of them but remnant of their former selves, and scarcely enough left of them on which to imprint the names of the battles they had seen, there kindled in his eyes the flames that had lit them at Chattanooga, at the Wilderness and amidst the glories of Appo- mattox; and as those veterans barred their heads to that May mornings breeze and looked for the last time upon the wasted features of their old chief, cheeks which in marching under him had been bronzed by southern suns and begrimed with powder were now bathed in the tears of a manly grief. And then they saw rising the hand which had so often pointed out to them the path of victory. He raised it slowly and feebly to his head in acknowledgement of their alutations. The last of the column had passed. The hand fell heavily to his side. It was his last military salute. Long and continued applause.

Consumption
 Conquered! :! WHEN THE DOCTORS COULD
 DO NO MORE.

CHAS. A. CABRERA, 32 Hawley Street,
 Boston, Mass, writes:
 Zone year ago I was apparently so far gone with Consumption that my life seemed only question of days rather than months. With my faith in the ability of physicians to hel2 me all gone, I tried almost every known remedy, with no apparent benefit. Finally, last resort, I induced to try Dr. R. c. Flowers Lung Cordial. The very first dose gave me relief, and with the first bottle took new lease of life, and can honestly say to-day that spoonful of this remedy is worth more to the sufferer from Lung troubles than a gallon of any other known remedy. A bottle of it is now one of my choicest possessions, and at the first symptom of cough or cold fly to it for the relief it never fails to give.''
 DR. FLOWERS LUNG COR- DIAL is without question the most wonderful Lung remedy ever discovered. It eradicates the germ of CONSUMPTION as no remedy has ever been known to do. It stands without rival for COUGHS, COLDS, BRON- CHITIS, ASTHMA and CON- SUMPTION.
 Price $1 per bottle. A copy of Dr. Flowers Rules for the Treatment of Consumption ac- companies each bottle.

 The commissioner of internal revenue says that the present year will show very large increase of receipts in his department over last year. The first six months showed an increase of over $1 ,500, 900, and the sec ond half will show more than that in all probability. Indications now are that there will be a large increase about the 1st of May, when the new annual licenses are issued. The entire increase for the year will without doubt be over $3,000,0O0 This is taken as an indication of improvement in the busi- ness situation.
 In Brooklyn court the question whether a saloon keeper should pay damages to dead mans family turned on the definition of habitual drunkenness Several bartend CTS were examined as to the meaning of the word drunk, and all agreed that man could not be said to be drunk until he fell down and was unable to move. As it was easy to prove that the individual in question had walked around more or less every day for some months before his death, it was held that he could not have been an habitual drunkard, and the saloon keeper was accord ingly held guiltless.
 Some recent experiments indicate that ice is purer than the water from which it is made. Dr. Pengra, of the university of Michigan, has made number of tests to de Ject bacteria and other harmful organisms in ice, and reports purifcation of the water in percentages varying from S9 to 93.3 per cent But this is not absolute purifoation, such as will render the ice fit for introduction into the human system.

MAN HUNTERS.
The Master of the BIoOdhounds and
 His Wonderful Convict Catchers.

From the Nashville American.l
 "Wynton, allow me to introduce my friend, K. o. Crauswell, who is the keeper of the dogs at Pratt Mines, Ala, and who has the only pack of genuine bloodhounds in the South"
 The speaker was L. w. Johns, the mining engineer MT. Crauswell advanced and ex- tended his hand to your correspondent. He was heavily built, six feet eight inches tall, of forid complexion and wore a wide brim, slouch hat. His feet were encased in high topped boots, in which his pants were stuffed His coat was open in front, show ing an immaculate shirt of snowy whiteness, on the bosom of which, half hidden in the ruffies, glittered large diamond. He had the appearance of desperado, but he was genial and frank and an interesting talker, with voice soft as woman's and with actions timid a girls.
 This is the man whose daily life is spent with pack of bloodhounds, the fercest an- imals raised South.
 s'I was born in Pike county, Ala, near Troy, and lived with my parents there until I was twenty-one years of age. My father WAS hunter and always kept pack of dogs for hunting deer and catching runaway ne- groes When was twelve years old I re- e a runaway negro. The negro had gotten away twelve miles the start and we tracked him up mans chimney. When I was six teen took charge of my fathers negro dogs and followed them until the close of the war I have always been fond of the sport of running foxes and kept it up until four years ago. when I accepted the position of keeper of the dogs at this place."
 In 1882 he came to this place and began to train bloodhounds He brought to the mines five famous dogs that had been owned by his father, among which were Fannie and Bueker, the two famous man hunters of the South. The dogs are kept in kennel in the stockade enclosure, and are nursed and fed by their master as tenderly as children. Their food consists of bread and raw beef.
 The animals when three months old are put through a course of training. trusty convict is started off on run with the dog at his heels and runs short distance A run of five minutes is taken, and it is in- creased until the dog can trail we'll at start of thirty hours on him. The dogs are not difficult to train; the only difficulty is to keep them from changing tracks, which is in dog parlance, to put dog on the track of a man and his sticking to it without chang ing even if other tracks cross it. Fannie will never give her tongue to any other but the first track she took, even if one hundred

 The Southern Christian Advocate has not high opinion of the principle embodied in the Blair bill. It says: We do not need book learning so much as training in independence and self-reliance. We can get on for many years to come with modicum of schooling, if only our people advance surely in econo- my, thrift and ill the intelligent appreciation of the real benefits of common school educa- tion. But this advancement depends on self help and lf-denial, and it would be a cruel 1y misplaced charity that, in the name ev en of philanthropy and enlightenment, should seek to give us for very limited time aid which, even as an assured endowment, would not be beneficial.
 The Supreme court of Pennsylvania has decided that widow has no control over the body of her deceased husband after it has been buried. In the case decided the widow filed bill in equity against the brothers of her deceased husband and his mother, in whose cemetery lot he was buried, claiming her right 50 to do as administrative and as widow, but it was held that her duty to bury the body of the deceased terminated with the burial, and that as widow she had no right to it after the interment The widow also claimed, and the claim was we'll founded in fact, that she had yielded her assent with the understanding that the body might afterward be removed, but this fact did not weigh in the decision of the court, which held that after burial the future dis position of the remains belonged to the next of kin.
 As we noticed yesterday, some of the fruit growers of California think they cannot get along well without the help of the boycotted and despised Chinese. The Hop Growers association of Mendocino county is also quite willing that the Chinese should stay. The members say that the hop crop is the only one to which they can look for money, and that nearly all of their capital is invested in machinery used in the production of this crop 'tWe cannot pick and save our crops with white labor alone" they add, "as it is not in the State and cannot at present be had. , They declare that they will not submit to the boyootters. They are willing to exert them selves to stop Chinese immigration, and they prefer white workmen if they can be found but at the same time they assert that the Chinese now in California should be pro- tected
