JaC k son and the Neternn


From "Perieys "reminiscences Of SIXTY Years in the
National Netr0poias.'
Removals from office that places might
be provided for Jackson men were tie
order of the day, but President Jackson
was not disposed to displace any veteran
soldier. Among other victims designated
for removal by the politicians was Cen
eral Solomon Van Rensselaer,, whose gal
liant services against Great Britain ia the
war of 1872 had been rewarded by an
election to the House of Representatives,
followed by his appointment as postrnas-
ter of Albany. He was decided FEEDER
alist, and the petition for ms removal was
headed by Martin Van Buren, and Sil.s
Wright.
Visiting Washington, General Van
Rensselaer, received a cprdi. greeting
from General Jackson at public rece,-
ton. and then, taking seat in corner.
he waited until the room was cleared,
when he again approached the President,
saying: General Jackson, have come
here to talk to You about my office. rhe
politicians want to take it from me, and
they know l have nothing else to live
| upon" The President made no reply,
till the aged postmaster began to take off
his coat In the most excited manner whtn
Old Hickory broke out with the inquiry
''What in Heaven 5 name are you going
to do? Why do you take of your coat
here?' well, sir, am going to show
you my wounds, which | received in
| fighting for my country against the Eng
| fish ~ Put it on at once, SIR" was the
| reply; Il am surprised that man of
your age should make such an exhibition
| of himself, and the eyes of The iron Pres
ldeut was sutlused with tears as, without
another word, he babe his ancient fee
| good evening.
The next day Mcssrs. Van Buren, and
Wright called at the White House and
were shown up into the Presidents room,
where they found him smoking a clay
| pipe. Mr.. Wright soon commenced to
solicit the removal of General Van Rens-
selaer, asserting that he had been known
as very active advocate of John Quincy
Adams; that he had literally forfeited his
place by his earnest opposition to tie
Jackson men, and that if he were not re-
moved the new Administration would be
seriously injured. He had hardly finished
the last sentence when Jackson Sprang to
his feet, tuug his pipe into the fire, and
exclaimed, with gre&S vehemeuce, 81
take the consequences, SIT. | take the
consequences By the Eternal. will
not remove the old man | cannot re-
move him | Why, Mr.. Wright, 60 you
not known that he carries more than a
pound of British lead in his hody?' That
settled the question, AM General Van
Rensselaer, remained undisturbed as post
master at Albany through the Jackson
Administration, although Martin Van
Buren,, when he came int power
promptly bounced him.

San francisco Report
| have never met but one woman WHO
was satisfied that Providence should have
decided her sex for her. Every other
skirted sister longed for trousers. It's
not SO strange they are dissatisfied. The
majority of women do have a hard time
of it. Men cannot understand, even
though they love her. She is called capri
cious, tickle, heartless, when her very
being teens with love and devotion.
Man's nature in ordinary is not fife
enough to know her, and so thousands of
women go through life constantly look
ing for an idol that has never been carved.
Happy is she who can sip the troth from
the cream, and mold herself to satisfy
another's ideal. All women are not SO
plastic. These are the ones to be pitied.
Men who should by reason of the many
women sacrificed to their pleasure and
seltishness be kindest are most unkind.

ing woman is a charming creature who

he would have had less reason to COM

Mr. Cleve land likes to look over the cur

badly never has been a President who

because he likes to. Since she has been

letters each day. Several of them are

mainder are to people personally I'M

some the earth. Mrs. Cleveland gives ad-
vice freely where she thinks it will be re-

she thinks the writer is sincere, but she
has a vein of sarcasm for meddlesome
persons who are attempting to gain tenn

WHAT DOES 1T MATTER.

Wealth and glory, and place and power,
What are they worth to me or you
For the lease of life runs on in an hour,
And death stands ready to claim his due
Sounding honors or heaps of gold,
What are they all when all is ton
pain or pleasure, a smile or Il tear
What does it matter which we claim ?
FOR we step from the cradle into the bier,
And careless world goes on the same
Hours of gladneSs or hours of sorrow,
What doe, it matter to us tomorrow
Truth of love, or VOW of friend-
Tender careSseS or cruel SneerS-
What do they matter to us in the end =
For the brief day dies, and the long night
Passionate kisses, or tears of gall
The grave will open and cover them all.
Homeless vagrant, on honored guest,
Poor and humble, or rich and great,
All racked with the worlds unrest,
All must meet with the common fate.
Life from childhood till we are old,
What is it all when all is told

Genius and Madness.

A controversy is now going on in the
scientific world on the conditions under
which genius is produced. Senator Ma
quet and Doctors Marechal, ,Iacopy and
Bull say that it is IA neurose and that
most great men have had mad or epilep-
tic ancestors or descendants or been
themselves attacked with epilepsy or
heen in some respects on the very brink
of Iunacy Cesar and Peter the Great
had falling sickness. Napoleon was sub
iect to long fits of fainting that resem
bled catalepsy. Newton had also a dis
ordered nervous system. Bryon's mother
was a raging, irresponsible termagant
and his father no better. Isabella the
Catholic, who was certainly woman of
genius, had a mad uncle, a mad brother
and daughter the ancestors of all the
Spanish and Austrian Iapsburgs. Her
Usabella's) grandson, Charles ", also
a man of prodigious political genius, was
epileptic and the progenitor of line

and Authorizations. Luther also had the
latter and thought he saw the devil in
person coming to tempt him. William
the Conqueror was the son of Robert the
Devil who must have had, to judge from
the legend which had been handed down
a nervous system that ran riot. Accord
ing to the new theory, genius like the or
chard, pear or apple tree, or the double
rose, or dahlia, is abnormal and except
in an intellectual sense sterile. Thus

LOVES SEASONS.

Springtime love is like the flowers,
Born TO blossom and to die,
Smiling through a few sweet hours;
All, tell me why.
Summers love is like the showers,
Burst with lightning from the sky;
Wasted soon its passion 5 powers:
All, tell me why.
Autumn's love is like the gold
That on the forest leaves Shall lie
Quickly fled with speed untold:
All. tell me why.
Winters love is like the cold
And chilling winds that swiftly fly,
Vanishing DER wood and void:
All, tell me why.
Yet Summer, Autumn, Winter, Spring
Are full of love that shall not die;
For love is of them all the king:
And who cares why?

Mr.. GOrmau's NufInep.

From the Baltimore Sun.
Senator German was in the city today,
looking after certain departmental mat
ters which he desires to arrange prepar-
atOry to going away on his summer vaca-
ton. MIR. German tells the following
story on himself: For many years he
has been sufferer from regular attacks
of neuralgia. On some occasions he has
been confined to his home day or two,
so intense was the pain. An old lady
friend once called upon him while he was
suffering from one of his attacks. She
displayed so much sympathy that she al
most forgot to name the request she had
to make-but she did not. Upon learning
that the Senator was troubled with neu-
fallible remedy, provided he would prom
Use not to laugh at her or accuse her of
being a believer in conjuration, spells.
etc. The Senator, in a good natured way
informed her that he was under treat
ment of an eminent physician who some
times afforded him temporary relief. The
old lady finally prevailed upon the Sena-
tor to give her remedy fair trial, where
upon she suggested that he should get AN
ordinary nutmeg, such as is used in cook.
ing, drill hole through it, attach it to a
piece of string or ribbon, and wear it
around his neck continually.
The Senator while suffering one day,
determined to give the nutmeg remedy a
trial He followed the old lady's direc-
tions, and in a few hours felt greatly re-
lieved. He has worn the nutmeg ever
since, and is seldom troubled with neu-
ralgia. He has consulted several physi-
clans on the subject, and they state that
the nutmeg possesses certain virtues
which may have effect on neuralgia pains.

it must be a brief one. | am more in
clined to eNclaim with Ohrho, "The
pity of it, oh, the pity OF it" Few men
of Sir Charles bikes age had behind
them a more distinguished past or be
fore them the promise of SO great
future. He had in the beginning a
good political start and a good social
position. He lost both by his attacks
on the royal family and by a sort of
harem .scarem republicanism which
came to nothing. Then he set to work
to regain what he had forfeited and to
rebuild his fortunes. Slowly, very slowly
at first, he climbed upward. He had
infinite patience, tact, fortltude, capac-
ity for taking pains and for hard work.
After years of struggle, he succeeded.
He became an ornament of society, a
pillar in the political temple. In 1880
he forced the door of the Cabinet for
his friend, Mr.. Chamberlain, and pres
emily walked in himself. He was pop
ular in the House, ldolized by his con-
sutuents, a conspicuous figure with the
public. He made himself European
name in the Foreign Office, though only
Under Secretary. His fortune was
ample, he was in the prime of life and
he had that singular strength which
comes from the enthusiastic friendship,
if not more than friendship, of women
whose beauty, rank, influence, were SO
many tributes and helps othe advance
ment of the man to whom they were
devoted. He was freely named as a
probable Prime Minister of England.

return of the jury must have told him
his fate-his sole chance was III a long
debate and disagreement But a man
hopes against hope when he looks on
death at least, he nerves himself for
the worst. Sir Charles sat up little
straighter, fllttened his back close
against the oak front of the bench be-
hind him, steadied himself with both
open hands resting hard upon the seat
Hardly 4 movement OF the features, eX-

applause, instantly silenced. While the
lawyers and the judge discussed what
technical form should be given to this
awful sentence, still he kept his seat.
His solicitor was by his side, his coun-

offered his hand. When all was over
Sir Charles Dixie rose, took his hat,
edged past the table, looked not to the

bent it to the lowness of the exit, and
with bearing Spartan to the last, quit

which was again in session Friday, decided
to adopt aggressive measures against several
prominent wagon and sleigh manufacturers
of Homer. n. Y, who had discharged work
men belonging to the Knights of Labor be-
cause of their connection with the organiza-
tion The decision of the board practically
is boycott, although Grand Master Work
man Powderly and the members of the
board declined to use that term, and only
say: "Don't buy" The firms affected
are Gage, Hitchcock & Co., w. N. Brock
way, and the Homer Wagon company,
limited.
Mr. Powderly, speaking of the remarks cf
President Strassar of the CigarmaSers' In

the differences between the latter organiza-
ton and the Knights of Labor involved the
existence of the open trade nnions, said:
"Most emphatically, there is no issue bo-

Labor, but the time is coming when they
will all have to stand ON the same broad
platform"

Everything Goes to Politics.

WASHINGTON CITY, March S-There was
another political debate In the house Friday
this hmes over the urgent deficiency bill,
which was passed as well as two private
bills, and at the evening session fifty pension
bills. The debate on the efficiency bill took
its color from a remark made by Hewitt Of
New York, when Cannon of Illinois, said
the treasury books had shown as the
result Of Republican administration
only 1 cent missing and that
cent had afterward been found. Hewitt re-
marked: "Turn the rascals out, and then
o running debate took place on the action of
the administration in removals from office.
Springer said that if the senate would cease
to obstruct the president he would soon get
rid of the dishonest employees, and Cameron
answered that if the Republicans were
bounced out because they were Republicans
he had no objections. There was u deal Of
recriminatton and criticism, but the dis
course hardly reached the point of iveli-
