and my fondcst hope is to be let alone You have
no idea how am bothered by this thing Why
can't people take q man at his word? Why must a

Did you have political quarrel with Logan be-
fore his death?"
$50 far as know there no quarrel. The gen
eral was little dissatisfied in 1854 but went to
him and explained my position. l was for Arthur
for president because was in his cabinet, and be
cause believed he was worthy of an election to
the Office to which he had been called by chance
1t was difficult for General Logan to understand,
just as it is now difficult for
some people to understand, that
have no personal aspirations. But I think he
finally realized that was candid. l told him
could not sit in Arthurs cabinet and be disoyal to
him,though had none but friendly feelings, that if
General Arthur had been nominated he would have
been elected"
Lincoln's outward GOODNESS has been his chief
fault or his misfortune. At Washington he gained
the unenYiable reputation Of being arstocratic, ex-
elusive, unapproachable, and he was particularly
disliked by members of the press, to whom he
showed lew courtesies, Senators and members also

Marks the Place Where Powder Mill
.l

CLEVELAND, o., February 3.--The blasting
corning mill of the Austin powder companys
plant i'll Newburgh township. near this city,
was blown to pieces about o'clock this morn
ing. The mill is used for granulating pressed
cakes of powder and the machinery had just
been started by Reuben Wright, when the ex-
plosion occurred. Wright was instantly killed
A large hole in the ground mark the former
site of the MILL but of the building and con-
tents not vestige remains, The mill was
isolated from the remainder of the plant and
that accounts for the small loss of life. The
company's loss is estimated at five thousand
dollars. About six hundred pounds of powder
were i'll the mill at the time and the explosion
produced a report which was heard for miles
The ground shook as if by earthquake and
windows in stores and dwellings a mile and
half distant from the mill We're broken.

Steamers Arrive at the Levee at st. Louis
The Mississippi Reeeding.

ST. LOUIS, February 1.-The city of Vicks-
burg and the city of st. Louis came to the levee
this afternoon and will load for the south.
The river declined rapidly after the ice broke
last night but is rising again tonight, with 10
feet of water by the gauge. A good deal of
water is coming out of the Missouri Some
of the southern tributaries of that
stream in this state fare being influenced by
the thaw on the northern slope of the Ozark
mountains, and are sending considerable water
and ice, and the lower Missouri will probably
be clear of ice in few days. The harbor here
is free of ice with the exception of an occa-
sional drift that is piled several feet high
against the bank. and ferries and tugs and all
harbor craft have resumed their usual work.
The weather is fairly mild.

PROVIDENCE, R. L., February 4.-Just as the
district court at Cheratchct was concluding
trial on "Wednesday, the proceedings were dis
turbed by most unusual combination Of sounds
from without. They were found to proceed
from party of twelve French Gipsies, stroll
ing company in wagons Many of them were
children, and in their train were two hears
and a number of monkeys and dogs. As they
did not heed the warning to move on they
were taken into custody and the manager
locked up, and the human contingent sem
fenced to prison as Migrants. They were taken
down next day in big wagon. On their ar
rival at the state institution one OF the women
gave birth to child One of the party then
claimed that his luck was gone. this being his
first child born under roof. When the va
grants were searched the officers We're greatly
surprised to find among their filthy rags several
stockings filled with gold coin, and an old man
was greatly excited because some of his money
was missing, and this proved to have been
concealed IN a bundle of rags which had been
thrown away 10y the authorities. 1t was after

Georgia's Three big Fnirs.

From the Macon Telegraph
According to the Nashville American there
is an "unfraternal feeling" between Atlanta, Macon
and Augusta on account of the conflicting dates of
the three fairs which TO be held in these cities
next fall. We have not observed any ''unfratcrnal
feeling on this matter. The dates as originally an
nounced do eonicttlf adhered to, Augusta s expo
sion would be In progress during both the state fair
at Macon and the Piedmont exposition at
Atlanta. But there is a desire on the part of the
management of the three great enterprises to ar
range dates to serve the best interests of all
We sincerely hope this may be done There is no
reason why the prospective clash of dates may not
be avoided The State fair, the Piedmont exposi-
ton and the Manufacturers exposition all Geor-
gia enterprises. They will all illustrate the tri-
umph of Georgia brains and Georgia industry, We
hope that each of them will have the best possible
showing. ,....-s.

Minister Jarvis Antagoni2ing the Senator OF
North Carolina.

RALEIGH, y. c., January 3O,-[Special lit
is learned today that quite an extensive move
ment has been begun to secure the nomination
of Thomas j. Jarvis, now minister to Brazil,
for governor. 1t is said chat Jarvis friends in
all parts of the state are working earnestly
with this view. 1t is thought certain that he
will return from Brazil in June. His oppo-
nents, or rather those who favor other candi-
dates, claim that Jarvis would only use the
goyernorship as a stepping stone TO the senate,
and that if elected governor he will defeat
Matt Ransom. The matter is just now the
talk Of the whole state.

EUROPE AGAIN DISoUIETED.


The political situation in Europe is
again cause of anxiety owing to the
rupture in the French chambers and the
defeat of the ministry. This is accepted
as an endorsement of Gen. Boulanger
at least pointed rebuke to his persecu-
tors. and is not considered as at all
likely to assure the peace Of Europe.
Germany regards the new condition, so
unexpectedly arising,as menace to the
friendly relations existing between her
self and France. There is no Journal
published in either Germany or Austria
which has the slightest sympathy with
Boulanger and there is no doubt that
any movement in his interest would be
regarded as occasion of disquietude In
Germany. There is feverish uncer-
tainty upon the whole European situa-
tion which Ia far from reassuring.
Neither Floquet nor Clemenceau can
form a ministry that will command
respect abroad, or support at home.
The monarchists are decidedly active
and the internal peace of France ia
seriously threatened. Germany. as Of
old, Is internally tranquil. Her
new emperor has the affection and
confidence OF the people; his health
is rapidly gaining ground; his English
physician, so long regarded with dis
trust, is now a popular favorite and is
greeted on the streets with cheers in
stead of grosns and Kisses; the same
deep confidence and agreement which
existed between Bismarck and Kaiser
William also exists between the great
chancellor and the new emperor, who
cordially approved at the last session OF
his ministers the home and foreign
policy formally announced by Prince
Bismark. While this tranquil feeling
exists within the empire, in 80 far as its
home affairs are considered, recent war
like movements in Russia have dispelled
the temporary confidence in the peace
protests of the car. Some Of the ablest
German journals pronounce the attitude
OF Russia really threatening and the
situation imminent. Russia having
failed to secure from Roumania permits
sion to pass through her territory to
Bulgaria, is fomenting disturbance in
that country and the recent riots at
Bucharest are directly traceable to Rus
sian agents. Roumania has resisted the
czar's overtures for a counter alliance
against Austria, and Austria promises to
aid Roumania with all her forces If Rus
sia attempts to cross her territory. Rus
sia is advancing her armies and a con-
fiot may be precipitated as soon as the
spring fairly opens.
