Lincoln and Mcclellan.

In the following paragraph from The
Century Life of Lincoln an account is given,
from the diary of Colonel Hay himself, of
an extraordinary incident of the year 1861,
which has given rise to many rumors: The
friendly visits of the President to army
headquarters were continued almost every
night until the 18th of November, when an
incident occurred which virtually put an
end to them. On that evening Mr.. Lincoln
walked across the street as usual, accom-
panied by one Of his household, to the resi-
dence of the Secretary of State, and after a
short visit there both of them weut to
General McClellan's house, in III street.
They were there told that the general had
gone to the wedding of an officer and would
soon return. Tney waited nearly an houl
in the drawing room, when the general re
turned, and, without pay ing any special at
tention to the orderly who told him thu
President was waiting to see him, went up
stairs. The President, thinking his nam
had moi been announced 70 the general
again sent servant to his room and re
coived the answer that lie had gone to bed
MIR. Lincoln attached no special importanc
to this Incident, and, so far as we know
never asked nor received any explanation q
it. But 1t was not unnatural that he shoul
conclude his frequent visits had become iil
some to the general, aud that he should dii
continue them. There was no cessation
their friendly relations, though after th
r Executive Mansion.
The Wilmingtonian., 1888-07-07
PRICE TWO GENTS.

let's go up stairs and ask mamma this
very minute, and we'll go down street
and buy the young lady at once. Then
we can dress her and take her down to
Hitty directly. Let me see suppose
we measure Seraphina, and get one
that can wear some of her clothes;
she has so many. You're willing to
sacrifice one of Seraphina's dresses,
aren't you7"
ooh, clothes" cried Marjorie, eager
ly; "she can have them all. Tisn't
her clothes I care about, its Sera-
phina."
"Well, we don't want them ALL"
said Auntie, laughing. "There now,
here's just the thing-this blue sailor
suit. Isn't there hat for it! Yes,
I thought so; now get me the tape
measure and run and ask mamma
while | see how tall she is"
So in a very few minutes Aunt
Sophie and her little niece were in the
car on their way down town. They
had great hunt for the new dolly to
find one just tall enough and plump
enough, but not too plump. At last
appeared fair one, with golden locks,
big blue-eyed creature that Mar
jorie called Ethelinda on the spot, and
when they took her home, Seraphina's
clothes fitted her perfectly, and she
was soon arrayed in pretty set of
under-clothing complete, with pair
of boots on, and then the dainty sailor
dress, with broad white collar, pretty
red tie and iaunty hat, and was pro-
nounced quite charming.
Then they took her down to little
Hitty's house, not forgetting some
good things for the sick child to eat.
And very pretty it was to see the rap
ture with which Ethelinda was re-
ceived, and Marjorie's own delight in
it when they came away and left little
Hitty hugging the doll closely to her,
and smiling down at Ethelinda like a
little mother.
That night when all the dollies had
been undressed and laid in their own
little beds, with an extra kiss for poor
Josephine, who could never be like
the rest any more, Marjorie went up
stairs to her own little room, carrying
the faithful Ethel, who always slept
with her, and whispering to her softly,
''Ethelinda's great deal handsomer
than you, you poor old thing; but she's
Hitty's, and I love you thousand
times better because you're mine"

Harrison's Chinese Record.


Senator Mitchell, of Oregon, one of the
most pronounced promoters OF anti-Chinese
legislation in Congress, says it is mistake
to suppose that General Harrison's record is
Objectionable TO the people OF the Pacific
slope and that to those who are familiar with
it it needs no apology.
al was quoted, said Senator Mitchell,
''in tbe newspapers of Indiana, two or three
months ago, as saying that General Harri-
sons record on the subject OF Chinese immi-
grafton was acceptable to the people of the
Pacific slope. and it brought out comments
in the press of my State, which led me to
make careful examination of the record
and to make inquiry of Senators who served
with General Harrison. in the Senate during
the early part of his term wi en- | was not
member of the body. found that he voted
against two measures providing form of
restricting Chinese immigration l talked
with General Harrison about the matter and
he gave me the grounds on which he OBJ
jected to the proposed legislation, which
were that the measures were in direct con-
fiict with existing treaties. He held that
before we passed statutory law we ought
to abolish the existing treaties, SO as to
avoid conhict. That is exactly the position
occupy, and about two years ago intro
duced joint resolution in the Senate pro-
posing the abrogation of every treaty with
! China, commercial as well as those on the
subject of immigration, and my intention
| was to introduce general Chinese immi
grafton bill which would take the form Of
statutory law.
"One Of the bills that Senator Harrison
opposed was passed by both houses and was
vetoed by President Arthur. During one of
my talks with Senator Harrison he said
'As lawyer could not afford to vote for
laws which knew to be in direct conflict
with existing treaties and which | knew
could not stand even the test they would be
subjected to iu the lower courts. did not
want to make myself ridiculous by voting
for measure which would conflict with q
treaty placed on the statute books during
nv own term of public life,' have" CON
tinued- Senator Mitchell, "rt ceived many in
quiries from my constituents on this subject
and have without exception stated that
considered General Harrison's record on thii
subject not inimical to the interests of oul
people,
9 But the Chinese question will not b.
the paramount issue in the approaching
campaign on the Pacific slope. We hav
secured as much restriction of immigration
and as much restriction of the rights
Chinese in our country as we can get at thi
time. Our people are practically quiet o.
the subject and the issue at the polls i
November will be fought on the tariff. Th
recent election in Oregon shows what pos
tion the people there hold on this subject
The nomination of General Harrison,
seems to me, was the best possible solutio
of tie complication in VIII ch the conventio
found ITSELF"

and vitality together, is common, but not

quite a Lot of Differences.

We of America and Europe shake each
others hands, A Chinaman shakes hands
with himself. We uncover tho head as a
mark of respect; thJ Chinese keep their
heads covered, but take off their shoes for
politeness. We shave the face, they shave
the head and eyebrows. The Chinaman's
waistcoat is outside his coat, and his drawers
are outside his trousers. We blacken shoes,
he whitens them. We have soup as first
course and dessert at last; the Chinese have
dessert at first and soup at last. Wewant our
wines ice-cold; they drink theirs scalding hot.
We bury in the earth; they on its surface.
With us black clothes is a badge Of mourn
ing; with them white garments indicate the
loss Of friends. In that land of opposites it
is the old men fly kites, walk on stills and
play at shuttlecock. and, to keep up their
odd way Of doing things, they play the game
with their feet ins.ead of their hands. In
China women do mems work, and men are
the milliners, dressmakers and washer
women. With US the right hand is the
place of honor; with them it is the left hand.
In dating letters we place tile year last; they
write the year first, They always speak of
the mariners compass as pointing to the
south. We pay our physician when we are
sick; they pay when they are well, but as
soon as they get sick the pay stops. Here
men kill their enemies; Chinaman gets re-
venge by killing himself. We use soft
pillow; they block Of wood. They launch
ships sidewise, they ring bells from the out
side, and actually turn their screws in the
opposite direction from ours.
The Wilmingtonian., 1888-07-07
The Care of the sick.

Most young women think that to smooth
the pill wv POLITICALLY to carry cooling drinks
to the lips, to arrange flowers on the table
with the walls at the head of the bed, to sit
beside the bed and read verses in gentle
voice, to move about the room in flowing
robes with noiceless grace, is the sum total
of nursing the sick; and they are quite ready
to begin a life in which they undertake all
womanly duties, when they cannot make a
cup of Cruel SO that it shall not be lumpy.
The care of the sick is in the real experience
something immensely different; life and
death hang in the balance, and all the ven-
lures of life, all the interests and loves Of
life. the sufferings of the dying, the hopes
and fears and terrible sorrows of the living.
Any serious illness is fight all the way
through between the doctors and nurses on
tho ono side eaa daath- and dieaaintian- an
the other.
1t is, then, one Of the shameful things OF
our civilization that our daughters are
brought up to chatter FIench, to take the
Last new dancing step, to talk critical jargon
