Gen. b. f. Butler is in Washing
ton for the present in his big house
opposite the southern end of the Cap
itol. The rooms are large and lux
uriously furnished, the walls hung
with fine paintings. One room con-
tains an elegant billiard table. The
General is suffering from a success
ion of colds in the head from which
he can get no relief. lie is a hard
worker every day, and has so much
business on hand that he is slave
to his pen. He SAYS that dinner hour
is the only leisure he has, and he
has made it an inheXible rule, that
no matter who calls to see him while
he is at dinner he will not be dis
turbed. 81 cannot and will not see
the dinner fend," he says. After
dinner be goes back to his work, re-
naming until 11.30 p. m. Then he
is hungry and calls for something to
eat. He goes to his sleeping room,
lights all the jets of the central chan
delier, and the gaslights each side
of his bed, and piling in reads until
he falls asleep. If he wakes NJ
during the night, as he often does
he resumes his reading. He is the
first one up in the morning, when h'
at once goes to his desk. Such IL
the daily routine life of one who has
acquired wealth and is well on il
wears, but who is not able to stol
business and take a rest. That viii

Gen. Terry, who has asked to be
retired from the army, was a civilian
appointee, and his rise to his present
high rank among the three major
generals of the active list has been
regarded as altogether exceptional
His war record was brilliant one,
and he has long been esteemed as
one of the bravest and most popular
generals in the service.

Such cheering words from one who
has seen almost fourscore years are
very encouraging, and remind us of
the old adage, 1.-THE old for counsel,
and the young for war" Let each
soldier enlisted under the above head
ing for a peaceful war, be found dali
lv at her post of duty, for whatever
action the occasion may demand.
ssWait on the Lord be of good cour-
age, and he shall strengthen thine
heart; wait | say, on the Lord"

The strike of the engineers on the
Chicago, Burlington & Quincy rail-
road, though not as yet officially de-
clared off, may be considered as end
ed, and it is hoped that the lessons
which it suggests will be needed not
only by the brotherhood of locomo-
tive engineers, but by other labor
organizations as well. The result is
simply what parties not Immediately
interested predicted at the outset
failure. The striking engineers have
not only failed to secure compliance
with their demands, but most of then
find themselves out of employment
their places on the Burlington roa
having been supplied by others
The strike has cost the brotherhoo
not less than $4,000. 1t has cos
the road not less than that to resi-:
it, to say nothing of the depressio
of stocks, and the interruption {
business by which the public has,
a greater or lesss extent, suffere

How shall we as members of the
w. G.. L. L., best serve the cause Of
temperance and do justice to all?
Suffer few words of advice from an
elder member of the order, a sincere
lover of all that is good and pure
contested with our sisterhood. 1t is
ours to labor diligently in everything
for the creation of strong public
sentiment in favor of the truth, and
to work just as fearlesslv for the sup
preston of what seems to us error.
Our national motto, ''For God and
Home and Native Land is indica-
tive of the conservation which is nee
essarv to our progress. Considering
tation, for surely if in the path of
duty our Great High Priest will never
forsake us until success is ours. Let
all those things which would antagO-
| nize or cast reproach upon us, be
counted as dross-Rom. 8 is. Go
on, and out into every department of
your work with the undying principle
of Ideal justly and love mercy" let
truth be our guiding star, self-govern-
ment our watchword, and liberty our
goal of rest. May we eXemplify the
gentle, pure. and quiet example of
our Master, and the same persistence,
in his adherence to the right be ever
before us, making no concessions de-
! rogatory to the cause we have espous-
| ed. When conscience fOrbids our
4 acceptance of the platform of the
great political parties in reference to
our work, let us still pray for what
Justice demands, and for them as
we'll, that they may forget party in
their great need of principle. The
shore we are trying to reach
NAV have headlands and breakers
but by taking an oblique course oul
landing may be reached in safety
Help us in our great Exemplar tc
walk 'by faith and not by sight.
Trv bv love to persuade many to think
for themselves, for we forget some
times that the movement of the mass
es is made up of personal decision

within and God o'erhead.

There are nine states having a
smaller population than the proposed
state of South Dakota, and yet the
party in power in the administration
of national affairs opposes the admis-
sion of this territory as state. 1t
has a population of over 100000
but they according to the democratic
programme must not be allowed any
voice in determining the character of
the next administration. Opposition
to the admission of Dakota comes
chiefly from those who 20 years age
believed that no state could be com

From Berlin the varying reports all
happen to agree upon the fact that
Bismarck will not retire from office
at once and that the marriage of AL
exander, like that of the famous
Prince Paul, is put off. The Emperor
has enough on his hands just now
without assuming the responsibilities
of government that would immediate
" devolve upon him if he permitted
his Chancellor to retire. There are
shallow rulers who would prefer that
an empire should be governed badly
rather than not have it governed by
a submissive prince; but Frederick
is q wiser man.

through the dangerous crisis. He
had an abscess in the ear or head,
suffered the constant attendance of

had his head cut open with a chiSel

The subject of running trains, and
especially freights, on the railways
of the state on Sundays ought to re-
ceive the attention of the Legislature
this fall. 1t is getting to be regu-
lar practice, and we do not believe 1t
to be good one. Sunday is coming
to be too much like the rest of the
week, not alone in this respect, but
in others. Apart from all religious
considerations, the preservation OF
Sunday observance is greatly to be
desired. One days rest out of seven
is little enough for the average NOR
tai, whatever his occupation. But If
corporations are allowed to do as they
please, common people will not be
long in initiating the example thus
set, and in few years Sunday will to
large extent have lost its distinctive
quality Middiebury Register.

The attempt to throw doubt on
the fact that Gen. Grant wrote his
memoirs will react against its au-
thor, as it should. Gen. Grant was
a remarkable man in many respects.
He was. even after his election to
the presidency, remarkably poor
speaker. 1t was not necessary for
him to speak at that time; rather
important, indeed, that he should
not talk over much. When the time
came for Gen. Grant to speak he
could do it fuently enough. He was
scarcely known as a soldier when the
war broke out. but he rose and de-
veloped as the occasion required
Later in life it became necessary that
he should write to repair the losses
of others. He developed that capac-
ity also in the same wonderful way he
had his ability to manage armies and
make speeches. If it had been neces-
sarv. Gen. Grant could have written
poetry or painted fine pictures. At
all events, what he professed to do
he really did. He fortunately left
on record his protest against the
sham of which he is now basely &C
cused.

Emin Bey has just been heard from

who was supposed to need relief

Senator Morrill, made a powerful
speech in the senate, Wednesday, up
on the presidents free trade message,
criticising it severely. Among other
things he declared that if the presl-

many manufacturers and destroy 9th
ers, increase the revenue, force sacrl-
fees by the farmers. 1t was free

rector of the United States mint,

Contents Of a North Carolina Mound.

Mr.. J. NJ. Spainhour has described. in
the Elisha Mitchell Scientific society,
some relics that were discovered in the
excavation of a mound in Caldwell
county, n. c. Within the mound was
found n skeleton lying upon its face, with
the head resting in a large sea shell,
the inner surface Of which was carved
with hieroglyphics. Around the neck
were large beads made Of sea shells.
The arms were extended and bent at the
elbows, so as to bring the hands within
about a foot of the head. Around each
wrist waS a bracelet, composed Of cop
per and shell beads, alternating. The
copper beads appeared to have been ham.
mered into thin sheets and rolled around
the string, q part of which was preserved.
Near the right hand was an iron imple-
ment like a chisel or punch, not sharp
pointed, but smaller nj the end away
from the handle. The left hand was
resting on the onveI surface of a sea
shell, the concave surface Of which con-
tanned about a hundred small beads.
Tie shell was carved with hieroglyphics.

ing about the last part of it. The irst
part | did not hear.
Mr.. Cullom-0f necessity he dies
game on his tariff views, and his refer
ence TO internal affairs runs into a great
scold.
Mr.. Manderson-I was not particu-
larly struck with what | heard OF the
message. | can say, however, that If
Mr.. Cleveland will visit the Northwest
after he has more leisure, he will find
that our farmers do not indorse his
utterances on the tariff question.
Mr.. Cockrell-I cannot say much about
the message until / shall have read il
over. Generally speaking, 1t impressed
me very favorably.
Mr.. Ransom-l think it was like all Of
Mr.. Cleveland's public communications
have been, a very able and concisely
framed instrument.
The following opinions, expressed by
prominent members of the house Of rep
resentatives, represent the views of Re
publicans and Democrats on the presi'
dents message:
Mr.. Snowden PiNl rm.-The mes
sage is all right. exctr the tariff portion,
| The farmers of this country III the last
election put a veto on the president
idea. They know thar what betters the
vaceworkers' condition enhances the
price Of their products, and they voted
accordingly.
Mr.. Breckenridge, Of Kentucky,
Dem.l-The president keeps in view the
fact that it is a fight between monopoly
and labor, and he is on the side Of labor
Mr.. Weaver. Of Iowa, Gnd.)-The
presidents position on the tariff is just
the right thing, but ! am sorry he saw
fit to recommend a suspension Of silver
coinage.
