Daniel Webster took charge of Fryeburg academy in January, lso2, making tae journey thither from his home in New Hampshire. a distance of 100 miles, on horseback. He taught two terms, or until Septem- Der. His instruction is said 'o have been so acceptable to the trustees that they gave him a special vote of thanks and a small pecuniary gift when he retired from his position as teacher. In his leisure moments Daniel Webster copied deeds in the registry office, and those may stiil be seen there. He was anxious to in crease his salary of ts5o as much as possible, in order that he might as sist his elder brother in the payment of his college expenses.
 The Fourth of July of that year was made memorable by the en- trance of Mir. Webster into the realm of oratory, where later in life he was destined to reign as king. This first oration is still in existence and has been issued in a printed form. 1t Is unknown whether Mr. Webster fed his scholars upon the milk of the constitution, pure and undiluted, but 1t Is presumed that this document, which Daniel as little lad first read from his new red boriered pocket handkerchief by the light of a pine knot, must even then have engaged the deepest thoughts of the young manhood of it's coming defender. Mir. Webster in after yean never forgot this humble institution, but always kept a warm place in his heart for that which was his first stepping stone to public life. Port land (Me) Press.

man who was willing to be sacriheed for his party, and Mr. Carter was se- lected as the man, and accepted the nomination. Metsphorically speak ing, Mir. Carter rolled up his sleeves and entered the campaign, with that degree of energy which has since characterized him, and the result was that he rolled upa very hand some majority for the republican ticket over the man who was consid- cred impregnable on account oi his popularity. He was reelected to the position, and during his terms oi office in Congress he exerted an iii- huence in Legislation never attained by any delegate from territory, and which was surpassed by rev members from any of the states. As already stated, his administrs- ton of the office of commissioner of the general land office has been
 marked with the same ability and energy that has characterized him in every position in which he has been placed. Where under the administration of Cleyeland's com missioners, settlers found it almost impossible 10 obtain patents totheir land at all, aud if they did so 1t re- quired from three to nine years after final proof, under Commissioner Carter the business of the office has been managed in such systematic manner that patents now issue m from three to four months after making final proof. We know of few if any men in the country bet ter qualified for managing the cam- paign than the live, energetic, brainy ex-commissioner of the gen eral land office. The success which has attended him all his life will be of itself an inspiration to tho re- publican party and a sure omen oi victory at the polls in November.

 Cleveland, tic New York Recorder
 (Rep.) produces this pen sketch
 true to life, of his political past:
 He came years and years ago, when
 the republican party was in the first
 flush of early manhood, and it took
 him to her bosom. How changed the man, but not the party. The
 party that is still in the old fight for human liberty. It is still in the vanguard of human progress. But where is Mir. Schurz-the man whom it made great editor, whom it sent to the United States senate. and to the cabinet, the man whom it gave the first offices in its gift under the constitutioni He has gone to inc enemy. There is no man in all our public life who has boxed the polit- ical compass as he has boxed it. He has been everything end nothing. He has been for the republican, party when it gave him office. and against it when it put him out. He has been with the democrats when it conferred official favors. and against it when it held out no pros pect of reward. As victim of nd publican oppression, he is an inter. estlng study. It made him cabinet sofiiceF, senator and great editor. ii nas nothing more to give him now. ana he turns mugwump democrat. 1t has reduced him to the ranks and he kicks. Carl Shurz. as a victim of republican oppression, is a study. | r.kA him from tha day L- i--II aere until now, and how he has .Panned out" politically and other sise.

s,e.am.n. the Arizona Kid.

Under Sheriff ToIes of Socorro, N M.. arrived in the city yesterday to receive Ernest Steadman, the horse thief. He left with him last night He said that tho horse Steadman had stolen there had been recovered but that neither the owner nor the authorities were satisfied and that the prisoner would be so dealt with that it would become to him mat ter of sincere regret that horses had ever been invented.
 Steadman was quite nervous and his nervousness found vent in re- quests to be taken to various parties of the city with whom he pretended to have business. The persons were taken to the jail, but why Steadman wished to see them was not made apparent.
 Stesdman had gained quite rep utation at Albuquerque and all through that country as bad man, aad adopted the name of Arizona Kid" This alias was employed in the letters and telegrams which brought about his arrest.
 The stallion he stole from near Prescott is in the city and Marshal Blankenship was yesterday directed by telegram Co hold him until the arrival of the owner.-Republican
 Editor Dana, who has partaken ol his dish of crow and now supports { Cleveland, in speaking of the Home stead affair in the New York Sun says: We regret to nctice that nearly all of our Democratic con temporaries are treating the Home stead incident in partisan fashion, for which there is no excuse. They assume that because MT. Andrew Carnegie and his associates at Homestead have been engaged in an industry protected by tariff, and because dispute as to wages has arisen between the emloyers and employed, protection is responsible for the Homestead murders and mischiefs. In congress, too, certain persons who suppose themselves to be democrats Voorhees,, and McMillen of Tennessee have insisted upon this view. If strikes were never heard of in unprotected industries; if, in fact, the greatest strikes in the country had not occurred in the unprotected industries, like the steam railroads and the horse rail -oads; if free trade England were not country of desperate strikes. and if these facts were not known to everybody with education enough to read large print, these assump- tions might be worth contradicting. As the case is. they are SO far fetched and widely absurd that we fear they will bring discredit upon the democrats in the national cam paign. This is not a question of partisan politics; it is deeper than that, for 1t goes to the very heart of social order and the preservation of all that has been won for civiliza- tion. The democratic politicians and the newspapers that are trying to obscure the real question are do ing all in their power to injure the democratic party"

 Col. C. w. Johnstone, former editor of the Phenix Gazette, is an nounced as candidate for county recorder, of Maricopa county, before the republican convention. The re- publicans of Maricopa county must be hard up for political timber if they will select man for the posi- ton who spent three or four years doing all in his power to defeat the party. It requires the immaculate gall of democratic editor to ask for such favor after pursuing the course the Colonel did.

Hon. Thomas H. Carter has re- signed as commissioner of the gen eral land office, to take the chair manship of the national republican committee. Mir. Carter was one of the most efficient commissioners that ever occupied that position.
 He is an active and energetic man, of indomitable perseverance, and is just the man to fill the position of chairman of the national committee. Mir. Carter is a resident of Montana, where few years ago he was en- gagged in the practice of law, and his reputation was confined toa rather small circle, being but little known outside of that territory. To-day he is one of the best known men in the United States. It cam 0 about in this way: Some four or five years ago, w. A. Clark was nomi- hated by the democrat1 for delegate to congress from Montana. Mir. Clark was very popular with the working men of the territory, and it was considered practical impossi- bility to defeat him. There were plenty of republicans in Montana who wanted to serve the territory in the capacity of delegate in con- gress, but there were few or none who cared to run for the position against the acknowledged populari- ty of Mir. Clark, The republican convention cast about them for a
