NEw YORK. March 16.-The executive
committee of the American party today
appointed a committee to wait on Mayor
Grant aud request him to veto the reso-
luton a. the board Of aldermen providing
for the placing OF the Irish flag over the
1ity hall on ST. Patrick's day. Mayor
Grant denied the request for the follow
ing reasons: The display of the Irish flag
with the American flag on st. Patrick's
day is not an infraction of the dignity of
American citizenship. The Irish people
here have been conspicuously patriotic,
without abating their devotion to their
native land. The Irish flag is not a
national standard, but represents only the
aspiration of a people for liberty. 1t has
been the custom to display the flag on the
occasion referred to and there is no rea-
son to deviate from the practice.

with Dyspepsia, writes:

uendos upon all those remembered ca dences that our early youth had con- fidently remarked in crescendo, I find myself frequently lost in maze of speculation as to that familiar name which entities this chapter.
 Who was Bogus LcatherwoodP What sort of people were his parents who had christened him so oddlyp Or was ''Bo- gus' voluntary contribution from the village jester, supplanting the primary patronymicp Or was 1t diminutive of "Bogardus' Leatherwood, Esq.P
 If had only dreamed then of how often this metaphysical problem was to come up for solution and how often 1t was to go unsolved l should-but then doesn't this declaration apply equally to everything of the pastp Wouldn't we have been vastly more circumspeot If we had only known the lesson of the futurep
 From analogy incline to the opin- ion that Bogus was one of those chance appellations bestowed by some humorous-sarcastic native upon Squire Leatherwood, during the first months

 By this time half the male popula- ton of Sandtown had gathered about tho new-arrival. Tho blacksmith had gathered up tho horses feet one after another; had pulled their tails this way and thnt, had oponod thoir mouths with his brawny hands, locked ct their teeth with his heavy black brows drawn well down, had dropped one after the other each dol!cato and deer. like muzzle, and had made that little retiring demonstration of two or threo short backward steps common to all skilled examiners of horsco' tooth, and now stood cycling them rchectively with his hands in his pockets amid Q showo, of questions and suggestions.

Hap pening to catch the mercurial public fancy new lighted, it fastene itself as immovably to Squire Leatherwood as the big round head that sat upon his shoulders without visible intervention of neck. There it remained with all the unreckoning of timo that befits the unalterable legend, and Bogus Leath- erwood" he was; and Bogus Leather wood he will be to the end of time. come the more readily to this con- clusion because Sandtown itself was an illustration that some appellative genius was abroad in those days, and frequented that partie ular locality. Originally this village had been called New Philadelphia But with that keen perception of the inapt and the lu- dicrous, even in the abstract matter of names, the people of tho surround ing country had rechristened the vil- lage, and tho formal cognomen of New Philadelphia sunk at once beneath a | very mountain of customary usage in the title ot Sandtown.
 Sandtown itself was not an imposing city to look upon. The largest build ing by far was combination struct- ure, presenting broad front of hewed logs two stories high, and having the tinvariable open entry-a sort of min- iature court of tho ancient log castle. This fronted the square" of about two acres, in the middle of which was the courthouse, very small, square, dingy, rusty "brick," and the only brick house then ill Sandtown. Avery imposing structure in our eyes, Buck l Leatherwood!-and in those primitive days, too.

jaunty-looking bunch of chin whiskera this very pleasant gentleman's voice was heard in not at all the harsh and somewhat imperial tone of the average race-horse owner:
 "You're right there. Dary. Any. body could tell that this wasn't the Tunnyclif hoss. No more alike than 8 sheep's like -. You used to shoe fur the Tunnecliffs, believe. Didn't youP" with very engaging smile and going on to unfasten the tugs oi the near horse, and flying about the general business of unhitching in a very light, active, breezy way that did not escape the keen observation of the crowd. There was redoubled interest at this semi-recognition of one of our most influential fellow-citizens. At once a confirmation of Seef and an in- dorsement of the strangers-a sort of passport to the familiar recognition of every body.
 Not necessarily a friendly recogni- tion, take notice, gentle reader. Somewhere, or rather in many places, have read philosophical vaporings to the general effect that some people seek the sparsely-settled frontier sim ply because those scanty and isolated
 communities are ready and. eager to welcome any body, thinking only of the accession of strength against: the surrounding horrors of solitudel Never was there an error of theory so gross in effect and SO readily con- futed by experimental tests. The city
 passes the stranger unheeded. The
