General Gordon, now Governor of
Georgip, whoce soldierly appearance
and superb horscmanshipa were so
universally admired during the great
Centennial parade, was the recipient of
much hospitality from the New York
people during his stay in the city. At
dinner to which he was invited a
young Englishman, lieutenant In the
guards, possessed with the idea that
there was nothing very good or great
out of England, informed him that he
did not think the soldiers in the parade
presented militai appearance. per
haps not courteously replied Gov
ernor Gordon, "but when it comes to
fighting tlere was more desperate fight
ing and there were more men killed and
wounded during our last war than
there have been In all the wars of Eng
land from the time of William the Con-
querer." The Englishman did not gain
much by presuming upon the want Of
love of Governor Gordon for the soldiers
Of the North. -[Springfeld Republican.

no finger marks on the curtains, the

the place. There were none of the
usual annoyances attendant upon the
presence Of children in the house.
Still it is not pleasant thing to be
