Gen. Samuel Tho maS who was with the
Gould-Inman party in their recent trip over
the lines Of the Richmond Terminal sys-
tenn. returned to New York on Monday last,
and in an interview said that all the members
Of the party were well pleased with the out
look for the Terminal roads. l. was not
the purpose Of the Terminal people. he said,
to acquire interests in railroads north Of the
Ohio river. They have an arrangement
with the Pennsylvania Central which gives
them an entrance into New York. and
which is entirely satisfactory to than.
They will devote all their efforts to devel-
oping their railroad interests IN the south.
Gen. Thomas said that Senator Brice, who
was one Of the Gould InmAn party, was still
in the south inspecting southern ports. with
the view Of making one Of them the port Of
South American steamship lire which he
purposes to establish. A steamship line TO
South America, said Gen. Thomas, is Sem
ator Brice's hobby. The senator thinks that
the government ought 10 assist such line.
It has assisted in building railroads, and there
is no reason in his opinion why it shouldn't
assist steamship lines.
According to Gen. Thomas, Senator Brice
has not made up his mind as to the
port in this country that he will make the
terminus Of his steamship line. He regards
Norfolk, Savannah and Brunswick with
great favor, aud thinks that New Orleans,
Mobile and Pensacola have points that are
worthy Of most careful consideration be-
fore decision is finally made.
II the East Tennessee, Virginia and
Georgia had an entrance into this city he
would select Savannah doubtless as the port
for this end of tbs line Indeed, the advantages
of Savannah are so much superior to any OF
the other southern ports that he may finally
decide In favor Of Savannah, and secure an
entrance here for the East Tennessee, Vir>
ginia and Georgia either by building a
branch or by a traffic arrangement with
one Of the roads having its headquarters
here.
1t is not settled yet whether the steam
ship line Senator Brice proposes to estab-
lish will be run in connection with the line
of the Pacific Mail Company or as an indie
pendent institution. Doubtless when he re-
turns to New York he will be in position
to speak more freely with respect to his
projected enterprise than he has yet.

Bearing Down on Bismarck.

Differences Of opinion between Prince
Bismarck and his liege sovereign have
reached a critical point of hostility. So
gravely offended has the young kaiser be-
come with the veteran and disgruntled
statesman that there is strong talk of pubs
licly prosecuting the ex-chancellor for his
harsh criticisms of the newly organized gov
eminent. Recently there was an extraor-
binary session of the Royal State Council,
over which Chancellor Won Caprivi pre-
sided. In the midst of the session the en-
peror suddenly and Unexpectedly appeared
and took part in the deliberations. Matters
of serious moment were considered and
especially the aggressive attitude toward
the government assumed by Bismarck and
its bearing upon the foreign relations of the
empire. Current rumors indicate that the
state will prosecute the prince if a tenable
charge against him can be formulated.
Since the Russian ambassador last called
upon the ex-chanoellor observers of politics
| have noticed that the publications favoring
Bismarck have severely arraigned the gov
ernment for failing to keep faith with Rus
STA. That looks somewhat significant.
Still the prince protests that he is not
accountable for the newspaper criticisms
and laid the blame upon Gen. Won Valdez
see. who has consequently been retired.
While the angry opposition continues be-
tween the emperor and the once trusted
| adviser OF his father and grandfather, it
does not appear at all probable that the
prince is likely to be subjected to criminal
prosecution. From such an humiliation
his long years Of valuable service will
doubtless protect him. Nevertheless the
choleric old diplomat manifests no trepida-
| ton at the prospect of facing such an
ordeal, and would probably rather enjoy a
| fight with his political enemies.
But tho young sovereign, in all of his
| fierce resentment, probably remembers that
| he would have the wisest and shrewdest
man in his whole empire to cope with, and
in spirit Of common caution he will not be
| apt to relish the idea of facing the unpleas-
| ant consequences that might ensue.
With Bismerck's vast fund of general
information upon the affairs of the empire,
and his prospective deep resentment in case
he was attacked, he could make revelations
of the affairs of the state that might not
prove soothing to the sovereign's vanity, to
say the least. That alone is sufficient to
calm the royal anger if there were not
other and weightIer reasons. Clearly
large proportion of the rank and file of
Germany sympathizes with Bismarck
Were he SO attacked they might show a
disposition TO make trouble. Beside 1t
would place the government Ia upenvisble
light before the whole diplomatic world
Meanwhile the irascible old veteran will
continue to blurt out his whitening criti-
cisms with perfect impunity, safe In his
fully-realized security Of fame and per-
sonal popularity.

A Private Interview.

landlord in country village was busily en-
poyed at his desk, says the Youths Companion,
when afarmer came to the door to see him.
The man was asked his errand, but he per-
sisted that he must see the hotel keeper alone
The latter stepped outside. when the farmer
motioned him to follow, and walked around to
the rear of the hotel
When they were we'll around the corner the
farmer stated that he wished to buy a cow and
had heard that the landlord had one to sell.
Come on" said the other, and led the way
through the garden, patch of potatoes, and,
after climbing fence, through muddy barn
yard and into the hotel barn.
When they were inside the landlord put his
mouth near the others ear and whispered:

Bull Run, he was deta led as skirmisher. The
confederates pushed forward, and as the Skin

how Falleyrsnd Disposed of a Creditor
The art Of putting the right man in the

II would seem from this, says the Boston

statesman was as much a prey 70 office seekers
as are the Iuolic men or our own time. his
manner OF disposing Of them is emusingly

The applicant was thus disposed Of for the

''SIr, such and such place Is vacant. -
Vacant" replied Talleyrand. We'll. what
that when place is vacant it has already been
promised"
Like many another famous man, both before
his time and since, Talleyrand exhibited-at
least in early life-a great reluctance 10 set
Ting with his creditors. When he ap-
pointed Bishop of Autun by Louis XVI, he
considered fine new coach TO be necessary to
the proper maintenance of the dignity of that
office. Accordingly, a coach was ordered aud
delivered. but not paid for. Some time after,
as the newly appointed bishop was about to
enter his coach, he noticed a strange man stand
ing near who bowed continually until the coach
was driven away. This occurred for several
days, until at length Talleyrand, addressing the
stranger said:
well, my good man. who are yous"
i am your coachmaker. my lord, replied the
stranger.
"Ahr' said Talleyrand, you are my coach

When FatLer oarvss the Duck.

w. v. wright IN Boston Transcript
We all look on with anxious eyes,
When father carves the duck,
And mother almost always signs,
When father carves the duck.
Then ali of us prepare to rise,
And hold eur bibs before our eyer,
And be prepared for some surprise.
When father carves the duck.
He braces up and grabs the fork,
Whene'er he carves the duck,
And won't allow q soul to talk,
Until he's carved the duck.
The fork is jabbed into the sides,
Across the breast the knife he slides,
While every careful person hides
From flying chips of duck.
The platter's always sure to slip.
When father carves the duck,
And how il makes the dishes skipk
Potatoes fly amuckl
The squash and cabbage leap in space,
We get soIne gravy in our face,
And father nutters Hipdoo grace
Whene'er he carves the duck.
We then have learned 10 walk around
The dining room and pluck
From offthe vindow-sills and walls
Our share OF fathers duck.
While father growfs and blows ana Jaws.
And swears the knife was full of flaws,
And mother jeers at him because
He couldn't carve a duck.

prising that he should have suggested TO
the curious woman who wanted to see if he
really had on any socks that he would show
his neither buskins if she would confide in
him TO similar extent. That would have
placed reciprocal assurance upon an equitable
basis and established confidence. But she
