CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, August &c.
Michael Shelley, merchant in this oity,
got into discussion recently on national
Dolitics with Republican neighbor, who
asserted that "during Cleveland's admin.
istration Ee (Cleveland) permitted Land
Commissioner w. J. Sparks to turn out
20 900 families from their homes in Min
nesota and other Northwestern States"
Mr.. Shelley addressed letter to MIR.
Cleveland on the subject and received the
following reply to-day:
GRAY GABEEs, BUZZARD's BAY, MASS,
August 22.-(Personsl.) MIR. Shelley,
Chattanooga, Tenn.-My Dear Sir: Your
letter of the 18th inst, IL at hand. In re-
ply have to say that I have not the least
idea what "your worthy friend" meant
when he declared that "I had been the
medium through which 20, 900 families
were made homeless, and had lost their
all fighting for their rights"
7 am perfectly we'll aware That have
been the means of saving some homes to
NV countrymen, aud have tried very
hard to make the burden Of their lives
easier. am amazed at receiving from
the Southern country letter containing
charges like that which you bring to my
attention. am surprised, first, at the
necessary for their conooction
without the sembIance Of foundation. l
am moro amazed that with my record
before the people Of this country such
baseless lies should be deemed sufficient
arguments to prejudice me, and the cause
which I for the time being represent, IN
the minds of the Southern people.
Very truly yours,

Riuht Hand and Left,

This curious little extract, which reads
somewhat like riddle, comes from let
ter written by DR.. Franklin to the AmeIi-
can museum. The learned doctor is
speaking on subject about which there
is great diversity of opinion. He Is
arcnino the cause Of the left hand, and
contends that che is entitled to equal con-
sideration with the right, That she ought
to be equally instructed, in order that il
ANYTHING should happen to her sister she
might be as competent for useful employ.
ment as the right hand would be If de-
priyed of the assistance of the left:
"There are two sisters Of US, and the
two ewes of man do not resemble nor are
capable of being on better terms with
each other than my sister and myself,
but for the partiality Of our parents, who
make the most Injurious distinctions
between us. FROM my infancy l have
been led to consider my sister % 9 being
of more elevated rank. Nothing Waa
spared in her education, while l was
suffered to grow up without the least
instruction. She had masters to teach
her writing, drawing and other accom-
plishments; but if by chance I touched q
pencil. q pen or q needle was bitterly
rebuked. and more than once I have
been beaten for being awkward and
Waiting want a graceful manner. It is true
nv sister associated me with her upon
some occasions, but she always made it a
point of taking the lead, calling upon me
only from necessity OF to figure Of her
side."
But in spite Of DR.. Frapklin's argument
the left hand has never yet taken equal
place With the right, and, for many reas:
ons it seems hardly probable that she
ever will.-Harpey's Young People.

templated trip from Charleston to San
Francisco on their wheels, but have been
delayed thus far by combination of
small accidents. Their wheels have been

finest bicycles made. They are pneu-
matte tire, swift racers, made in Coven-
try, England, and weigh, whom stripped,
just thirty two pounds each.
The two Williams, as they will be
known on their long trip, will attempt
something that has never been done
before. A short time age an adventurous
cyclist rode from San Francisco to New
York, but made 1t by easy stages. These
young gentlemen will leave South Battery
at o'clock tomorrow morning for the
trip across the continent to the Golden
Gate. They will follow the line of rail-
road as much as possible and hope to
reach the Pacific in seventy days. They
will 60 from here to Augusta, thence to
Atlanta, Decatur, Ala, and Memphis.
Beyond Memphis the exact route is not
yet determined, but it will be through
Arkansas, the Indian Territory, the Pan
handle of Texas, Arizona, New, Mexico
and Lower California. The southern
route was chosen to avoid, as much as
possible, the extreme cold Of the Rocky
Mountain passes.
