Peers Children and Courtesy Titles.

The only persons entitled TO "Right
Honorable" are privy councillors, and
peers of the. rank of baron. viscount
and earl. The eldest son of a peer of
any rank takes rank next belew that
of his father. The eldest son of
duke, marquis or earl is commonly
called by the first of his fathers in
ferior titles, which may be available.
TO give him in all cases the second of
of his fathers titles would create CON
fusion. The Duke of Newcastle is al
so Marquis of Newcastle. He is be-
sides Earl of Lincoln, therefore his
eldest son, ranking as a marquis is
'commOnly called Earl Of Lincoln.
The Duke of Manchester and Wis
count Vaudeville: therefore his ell
dest son, ranking as a marquis, is
commonly called Viscount Mande-
Vile, to avoid probable confusion if
father and son signed "Manches-
ter"
| All the younger sons of dukes and
marquises are by custom entitled to
the prefix "Honorable."
All the daughters of dukes, marquis
es and earls are entitled to the prefix
of Lady" All the daughters Of vis-
counts and barons are by custom en-
titled to the prefix "Honorable.n
+ In case of an earl his eldest son is by
custem lord with such of his fathers
inferior titles as may not be identical
with his highest title whilst his
brothers are simply honorables whilst
| all his sisters are "Ladies.'-Saron in

Some Ancient Writers.

In ancient times a man who could
write was an aristocrau indeed. The
penman was q muscular fellow, who
often held the pen with one hand and
drove it deep into writing material
with a mallet; for the pen was Il chis-
ell and the tablet was rock. The
missives were dated and signed, but
were not banded from post to post
by carriers as at present, but We're set
up where written, that all men might
see for to write was to publish, and
no secrets were recorded. They stood
there and faced the flood of years un-
til never -ceasing time swept noun
tains away and hcaped hills where
plains had been. They stood there
until the race that wrote them had
faded from the earth and from the
memories of men. They stood there
until il later age dug down and read
the record, making broadly plain both
date and signature.,-Syria b. c. 200.

IN CONCLlfSlON.

Congress Is Reminded of the short Time
Left and the Work To be Done.
The preparation of the general appropri-
alton bill should be conducted with the
greatest care and the closest scrutiny of
expenditures. Appropriations should be
adequate TO the needs of the public service,
but they should BE- absolutely free from
prodigality.
! venture again to remind you that tho
brief time remaining for the consideration
of the important legislation now awaiting
your attention offers no margin for waste.
If the present duty is discharged with dill
eence, fidelity and courage. the work of the
ffty-iirst congress may be confidently sub
mitted to the considerate judgment of the
people. BENJAMIN HARRISON.

REMARKABLE SURGERY.
Bone OF Living Dog Grated Into a
Boys leg.

Bone ~ Living Dog Grated Into
Boys Leg.
NEW YORK, Nov 27.-Success seems
to have crowned the remarkable surgi-
cal operation of transplanting d bone
from a dog VI a leg OF Johnny Cethius,
which was performed by DR. A, M.
Phelps at the Charity hospital ON Black.
wells Island, about ten days ago Boy
and dog are one. Their flesh has grown
together and everything indicates tlat
their bones have begun to unite.
Since the operation every pIecaution
has been taken by Dr. Phelps to prevent
any information about the patient being
given to the public The boy and the
dog were placed in a room by them
selves and nobody has been admitted eX-
cept the house surgeons and nurses and
an occasional friend Of DR. Phelps
A gentleman Tuesday night, however,
who is almost rs well informed about
the case as Dr. Phelps himself, told all
he knew about the bone grating opera
ton
Il think ! can safely say, he said,
that all Of the indications are largely
in favor Of success in the attempt to en-
graft piece OF the dogs bone into the
leg Of the boy Their flesh has grown
together, and unless al signs fan union
has begun.
The doctor then described the plaster
casts, aud said that there was no truth
in the assertion that nothing reliable
could be learned about the success or
failure of the operation until the plaster
casts that bind the boy and dog to-
gether have been removed.
Not a day has passed that DR.. Phelps
has not inspected the wound, and If
need be- the exterior of the connection
between boy and dog could have been
dressed without disturbing the plaster
cast on Johnny's leg, the plaster cast on
the dog or the plaster bands that hold
theif legs firmly together
Probably the most certain indication
Of union between the bones, and point
upon which great stress is always laid
by surgeons, is the fact that ever since
the operation the temperatures of both
the boy and the dog have been normal.
Fever indicates that union Of broken
bones is not progressing favorably.
Not until the dogs upper forearm is
cut away from the boys leg win it be
known beyond the possibility of a doubt
that the canine bone has become
mnalgamatel with the boys.
The feat Of separating Johnny and the
dog is not likely to be made for at least
Il couple weeks.

Boston, Nov ETA letter has been
received by the American Missionary
association from Miss M. G. Collins,
whose regular station is on the Grand
river, Dakota. She wrote Nov. Is Of
the present Indian excitement: "Thave
been up to Sitting Bulls and the dance
is in full blast 1t is a most terrible
thing-the old sun dance with a new
name. They dance facing the sun as
long as possible and fail down, moan,
groan and whoop and foam at the mouth
like mad dogs. They do notyet cut their
bodies but that will soon come, The
men all dress in war dress in paint and
feathers, and the women also take part
and paint aud wear feathers, which is a
new feature (women never wear
feathers).
Sitting Bull stayed in a sacred tent,
and every one entering the dance for
the first time went into the tent to be
made 'wallan' and painted with creacents
on the forehead, cheeks and CHM and
a cross on the nose. | went into the
tent and talked with the old man. He
assented to everything but promised
nothing, He means war.
Miss Collins states that Sitting Bull
has told the Indians to pay no attention
to the orders Of the agent or to the pres

Craze.
LAWRENCE, Kan, Nov. 21.-Joe Alb
ner, Cheyenne Indian, who arrived at
Haskell institute from the Cheyenne
and Arapahoe reservation III the Indian
territory, says that the Messiah craze
has taken hold of the Indians down
there, and that they are arming them
selves and Eecoming very restless. A
Sioux Indian acting as a missionary has
come from the north to teach the new
religion to the southern tribes
He breaches to them that any one who
does not believe in the new religion will
be destroyed. and in this manner he so
works upon the imagination of these su-
perstitious people that they fall PROSTATE
to the ground While lying there the
missionary pretends to cast some spell
on them, and when they arise they de-
clare they have seen the new Christ, and
at once Join in the ghost dance This
new religion has also spread to the Kio-
was, Commanches and ApaChes, whose
reservation adjoins the Cheyennes and
Arapahoes.

threatened race riot at Brownsville. A
negro assaulted a young white man in a

negro, but he had collected a crowd and
swore he would not be taken. All the
negroes between Big Black river and
Brownsville are up in arms, threaten
ing to burn the town and kill the
whites. The negroes are largely in the
majority, but the whites, should any at

ON THE WHITE RIVER.
Numerous Bands of IIostiIcs Reported to
BE NLissing.

BE Missing.
Fort SULLY, S. Oak, Nov. 27.-It is
evident from the developments of the
last few hours that hostile Indians from
the Grand River, Cheyenne, Rosebud
and Pine Ridge agencies are mas5ing at
some point for a stand against the troops
under Gen. Brooke From squaw men
just in from Siebach county it is learned
that bands Of red men in war paint have
been passing through. that country for
several days, moving southwark.
They were well armed with Winches-
ter rifles, had plenty Of ammunition and
were well equipped with ponies. They
were uniformly insolent and reticent.
The place of meeting agreed upon is re-
ported to lie a heavily wooded point on
the White river, ten miles above the
mouth of the south fork of the White.
This point is days hard ride from Pine
Ridge agency and nearly as far from
Rosebud. The squaw men have been
threatened with death by the hostiles,
and are running away from the Indian
camps and giving up the secrets Of the
Sioux. They have been excluded from
all ghost dances, and are subjects of
hatred.
