81 am proud of their splendid
courage when ] remember that they
are Americans" said General Garfield
in the House of Representatives June,
25,i 1864, speaking of the Confederates,
1T is over, thank GodP' said Senator
Sherman, in speaking of the war,
during speech at Nashville. Tenn,
March "a, 1887, "but the courage,
bravery and fortitude of both sides are
now the pride and heritage of us all. !"
These utterances of leading supporters
Of the Union cause, one during the
struggle itself and the other nearly a
quarter of a century later, represent
the feeling of all candid men regarding
the soldiers of the two sections. Nobody
thinks of claiming that one army was
the superior of the other in many quail
ties, and 1t is source of pride to every
patriotic citizen that the Southern
troops displayed such courage and for
titude that no question of that sort can
ever arise. One cannot contrast the
soldieTly qualities of Federal and Con
federate, because they were identical.
1t would be terrible misfortune to
all Americans II The men who served In
either army should make a record after
the close of the war which was unwor-
thy of them, and it would be especially
humiliating TO the people of the North
if that record should be made by Union
veterans. Unhappily, il must be con
fessed that occasion has of late been
furnished for a contrast between the ex.
Federals and the ex Confederates to the
disad vantage of the former.

Last evening, about s o'clock, 12-
year-old boy by the name of Samuel
Payne, whose parents reside at No. 42l
l. street northwest, had his skull frac-
tured by sudden fall to the sidewalk
Young Payne was running along l.
street and when in front of No. 207 he
was tripped up by wire which had
been stretched across the sidewalk
from the fence to the tree.box. 1t was
dark at the time and the boy could not
see the wire. 1t is not known who
placed the wire there or for what pur-
pose.
The boy was Immediately taken to
his home and attended by DR.. N. W.
Naylor and is still in very precarious
condition. An investigation will be
made as to who stretched the wire
across the walk. 1t is supposed to have
been the work of some so.called funny
boys and was only prompted by mis-
chievousness; but should young Payne
die it will not be SO very funny.

The nomination of Hon. Richard

calls to the minds of many old residents
Of the lower section. of the city the
fierce political struggle that was waged
between those two intellectual giants
thirty years ago. Mr.. Randall was then
Just beginning that brilliant career
which has reflected so much credit on
Philadelphia, and his friends had great
hopes for his future. He was urged
for the State Senate in the fall OF 1860
and his opponent was Richard Vaux,
who was opposed by faction of his
party because he had dared tell Presi
dent Buchanan of his political mis-
takes.
The fight was hot one, and Randall
won the nomination. But the friends
of Mr. Vaux thought that their candi
date was cheated out of a nomination
he had fairly won, and as the district
was close one they took satisfaction
out of the ticket at the polls. Mr.. Ran
dali was defeated and a Republican,
jeremiah Nichols, was elected, repre-.
senting the district at Harrisburg from
from 1851 to 1865.

thought it was cruelty painful opera

lucky delivered a practical, forci6le and
eloquent address upon the duty of man,
not only TO love his fellow man, but to
be kind to dumb animals. He referred
TO the protection of children from vice
and cruelty, and said that the wealthy,
who have no children, should contribute
their money toward the support of pooi
children.
There were possibilities, said the
speaker, among some of those poor
but bright and hopeful boys, that they
might become another John Knox, &

DRAKE AND GALLINGER.
Friends of the Dismissed Fore man Are
GOssipiDg BusIly.


The removal of Mr.. II. f. j. Drake
from his place as foreman at
the Government Printing Office, is
causing no end of gossip in typo
graphical circles. Mr.. Brakes brother
is General j. Madison Drake of
Elizabeth, N. j. He is commander
of Drake's Veteran Zouaves, which
have frequently visited Washington; is
a stalwart Grand Army man and an out
and-out Republican. The removed
foreman will be remembered as wit
ness before the Congressional com
mittee investigating the Govern.
ment Printing Office, and
his testimony is claimed to have been
quite detrimental TO the Rounds ad-
ministration of the office and favorable
to Benedict's conduct of the office.
Drake also created something Of
sensation by refusing to answer
several questions put to him by DR.. Gal
linger, Republican member of the
committee, and stated In answer to a
question put by the latter, that he
(Drake) was Democrat and would vote
for Cleveland. DR.. Gallinger was very
sore and tried to humiliate Drake. The
presence Of the Doctor here now aud
brakes removal at the same time are
regarded as significant occurrences.
