A STORY OF WHITTIER.

Boston Advertiser.
"Did you ever hear the story of Whit
tier and the cabbage?" asked friend
yesterday; ait may have been told be-
fore, but it is worth repeating now. He
hates the odor of cabbage, like most SEN
sible men, and has a cordial horror of the
right smell in the wrong place, as Henry
James calls the fragrance of dinner in
the hallway. One day, however, a cab
bage was cooked at Oak Knoll and most
of it was left over. In Difference to her
Cousins olfactories the mistress of the
house directed the cook to put the cold
cabbage on the top shelf in the pantry
until the next day.
"In the course of the afternoon Mr..
Whittier was seen digging in the garden.
A member of the family asked him what
he was going to do, but he put her off
with merry twinkle in his eye. When,
in the course of household events, the
cook sought the cabbage it was gone.-
Mr.. Whittier had traced it to the eyrie;
he had claimbed up and had borne it
away in triumph, and in defiance of do
nestle economy had buried it in the gar
den. l tell the story as it was told to
me-" said his friend. "Call it How the
Poet Planted Cabbage (boiled.'"

Mr.. LAMAR is Justice of the Supreme
Court of the United States, and we do
not doubt that he will study law vigor-
ously for some time His position is
likelNSo be an embarrassing one, as he
never has been business lawyer-nev-
er learned the trade.
Upon the Bench, it has been well said,
he is the representative man of the Solid
South. He is the friend and champion
of Jeff Davis, and his appearance on the
Bench is as much triumph for the lat
ter as if Davis was there himself. The
demand that Lamar should go on the
Bench came from those who required
that a Confederate should be there.
Cleveland fell down and worshipped
Lamar as soon as he saw him-having
the submissiveness, the sycophaney and
propensity for adulation, that are the
fundamental political characteristics of
the Northern copperhead in the presence
of typical Southern man.
The contest over Lamar's confrma-
tion will do good. 1t points out to the
country the danger to which it is expos
ed in the Confederate attack upon the
Supreme Court. The COpperhead Con-
federate party is going for the highest
Court, and wants the use of it as soon
as possible to completely equalize the
Southern with the national cause in the
legalities. Perhaps the people who be-
lieve in the Nation would not have seen
this in time if it had not been for the
Lamar incident.-C5n. Com. Gazette.

REBELS TO THE FRONT.

Pittsburgh Commercial-G Gazette.
A short time ago it was announced
that Senator Gibson, of Louisiana, had
introduced bill into the United States
Senate opening the way for ex-Confed-
crates to positions in the army and navy.
Those who were conspicuous in the rebel
lion have been chatting of late years un-
der even the slightest determinations
against treason and in favor of loyalty,
and they are not at all either backward
or modest in asking to have the last
vestige of their disloyalty obliterated.
Closely following upon Senator Glib
sons proposition is bill introduced into
the House by Representative Enloe, q
new member from Tennessee, requiring
the Board of Managers of the National
Home for Disabled Volunteer Soldiers to
establish a branch home in Tennessee,
and providing that "honOrably discharg-
ed or paroled soldiers and sailors who
served in the army or navy of the late
so-called Confederate States, who are dis
abled by disease, wounds or otherwise,
and who have no adequate means of sup
port by reason of such disability" shall
be admitted to said home on equal terms
with other soldiers. The bill also pro-
vides that an additional member shall be
chosen by Congress to serve on the Board
of Managers for the National Home, and
that he shall be resident of one of the
SO-called Confederate States.
There is nothing peculiarly startling
about these propositions when it is re-
membered that rebels have been forging
rapidly to the front ever since the pres
ent Administration came into power
Treason is being made honorable. Sec
retary Lamar placed the flag at half mast
in honor of the ex-Confederate Jacob
Thompson; Mr.. Cleveland made an order
for the return of the rebel flags captured
in battle; Mr.. Lamar has just been
promoted to the Supreme Bench; Union
soldiers who were wounded in defense of
the flag have been turned out of the Gov
ernment service by scores and hundreds
to make places for the rebels who fought
against them; and why should not the
bars be thrown down?The question is re-
spectfully submitted to the consideration
of the Grand Army of the Republic.

A MODERN RIP VAN wINKLE.

lies down and goes to sleep again. Dur
ing the time he is awake he pays no at
tentiOn TO anybody, but drinks a little
soup or coffee without making any re-
marks, and at once goes sound to sleep.
His sleep is quiet and without any ap-
parent pain or discomfort.
When he fell ashep he weighed $50
pounds, but he has now dwindled to 20
pounds. Ills pulse is regular and very
strong, rather more vigorous than the
pulse of the average wide-awake man.
His head is very warm, while the flesh of
his body is cold and mas the appearance of
a dead mans flesh. While he sleeps one
hand is closed tightly IN front of him and
the other pressed firmly against the right
temple, and he invaribly sleeps in the
same position. Ills eye-lids are seen TO
blink very fast at times as ii the light
hurts them.
the opinions OF physicians as to his
trouble are very various. Some say il is
kidney trouble, some say he is crazy, and
Others assert that his heart is in dormant
state and that he will never recover from
his present. condition. Mr. Harms is 40
years old, and up TO the time he was taken
in 1877 had not been sick day in his life.

DEATH IN THE BLAST.
urgh Commercial-Gazette.

Pittsburgh Commercial-Gazette.
The accounts from the Northwest, re-
citing the fatalities of the great storm,
show an appalling amount of suffering
and an incredible number of deaths. 1t
is said to be about fifteen years since an
equal degree of cold was experienced in
that region, but if those death-dealing
blasts were to occur every decade and a
half they would have decidedly retard-
ing influence on the growth of that sec
tion of the country. The sacrifice of 200
lives, and the loss of thousands of cattle,
horses and sheep, are already reported.
These statements may be exaggerated,
but if they were reduced one-half they
would still make up an appalling calam-
ity.
There seems to be absolutely no means
of guarding against these storms. They
shoot out from the North with the sud
denness of tornado. The velocity of
the wind, the intensity of the cold and
the binding snow leave little chance of
escape for those who are beyond the
speedy reach of shelter. If young and
old can be frozen to death by the hun
dred in single storm when the country
is but very sparsely settled, it is fearful
to contemplate the consequence which
might follow one of these periodical
blizzards when the population has in
creased tenfold.
The loss caused by the storm has fall
en- upon class not well able to bear it.
The farmers are the principal sufferers,
and many of these are in debt and strug-
CLING against adverse circumstances in
their efforts to secure home. They are
deserving not only of sympathy, but of
material help, and some steps will no
doubt be taken to afford them relief.

HIS TENDER CONSCIENCE.


A young man who lives in one of the
interior towns of Illinois, and who some
times acts as supply" preacher when
called upon to do SO by regular pastors in
his neighborhood, came to Chicago not so
very long ago and went to see resident
minister whose reputation is not bounded
by either the Atlantic or the Pacific ocean.
He had serious load resting upon his
mind, and wanted to be eased of the bur-
den.
4 have called, Nh said he. ''to ask
your advice in matter that troubles my
conscience. | am in the habit of preach
ing ROW and then, and am generally paid
for it. InaSmuch as | am not compelled
to preach for a living, and the work is
done of a Sunday, it has seemed to me
that | am violating a commandment by
taking pay for work done on the Sabbath
day. What would you do if you were in
my place."
The distinguished divine reflected few
moments, apparently wrestling with the
question. At length he said: "I1I tell
you what you might do. Turn Jew and
preach Saturdays"

IMPROVE THE CANALS.
Canton Repository

Canton depository
There is this about the canals; they
have done good work in aiding commerce
and the conditions which made them ben
eficial have not disappeared. Properly
conducted they would not prove heavy
expense; indeed it remains to be proved
that they would be an expense at all,
The canals have been receiving no chance
to show what they can confer upon the
people. New York instead of wanting
to cast hers aside as an obsolete thing,
has cared for and improved them, and
the result is lesson to Ohio which
should not be lost sight Of.

THE cannon-ball train on the Texas
and Pacific railroad was wrecked at a
trestle near Bonham, Texas, on Wednes-
day of last week. Nothing peculiar about
that, but there is in this: Engineer
Laster, who was to have made the run,
fatty refused to go out that day, giving
as his reason that he had dreamed that
the train would be wrecked at the trestle-
work, and another man was substituted.
His dream seems to have been made of
the right stuff.
