OOSEY WANTS OFFICE TOO.
Looking for Sam Gordon,s Place at
Trenton.

A. B. Cosey, the effervescent colored
politician Of this city and protege of
Colonel John =. Toffey, is hustling around
pretty lively for the possession of mes
senger to the Governor. Mr.. Cosey was
one of the sights of yesterdays gather
ing of office hunters at the State House.
He was arrayed in a brand new suit of
Fashionable make n fit and had so
much the appearance of a real swell that
]. Henri Herbert of Trenton, who claims
to be the best dressed n most aristo-
cratic looking colored man in the State,
turned dark green with envy.s
Mr.. Cosey threw his usual
hustle and sixteen knots an
hour speed into his canvass,
and tore around so much that Colonel
Anderson felt constrained to remark that
he was making himself altogether too
numerous. He bounded into the rotunda
as though some more prisoners had es-
capped from the County Jail, in which
he is an under keeper. and he was hot
on their trail. He rushed up to Major
Anderson with q speed that sent a draft
down the corridor, and, grasping the
Majors hand, poured something into his
ear. Then he disappeared only to reap
pear again from one of the offices like a
Jack in a box, ard as he spied Colonel
Toffey among the statesmen.
He scurrled around and saw several
others of more or less influence, and then
went home evidently to dream of the day
when he would be the "Governor's man.
ard the biggest darkey in the State.
The general impression is that Mr..
Cosey will not get any. nearer the goal
of his ambition than he does in his
dreams, as It is said on good authority
hat Mr.. Griggs does not inte1dd to dis
turb Sam Gordon. the present efficient
messenger. Sam has held the position
for nearly ten years, to the entire salts
faction of three Governors, He is a man
of discretion and much above the aver
age intelligence of colored men. His long
acquaintance with public men and con-
tinued venture of the Office make him par
ticularly valuable to an incoming admin
istration.. 1t is q mistake to suppose that
the position of Governors messenger cor
sists merely OF showing people into the
Executive Chamber and running errands
for the Governor, work which anyone
can do. 1t is a position which requires
a tact, discretion and intelligence which
can only be acquired by a long and con-
tinued acquaintance with the place. All
of which Mr.. Griggs understands Mr..
Gordon Possesses.

You have probably asked yourself this

and it is a good thing to know Some of
the greatest physicians in the world have
answered 1t, and they tell us thai the

using q pure, reliable stimulant. Some
thing is needed to put the blood in health
full motion. invigorate the body, promote
the appetite and enable the food to be

A BETTER oYoLIsT THAN MAN.

Writing in LIE Cycle. a French medi-
cal man says:-.With the woman the
bones of the skull, arms n chest are
smaller and lighter than those of man,
while the pelvic bones and those of the
thighs are larger and proportionately
heavier. When the bones are covered
with flesh the proportion is still better
indicated and the difference more mark
ed. The centre of gravity is much lower
in woman's body than in mans. This
givese her greater agility and a more
perfect equilibrium. Her hips are more
developed and heavier, the thighs shorter
n larger, which enables her to hold her
self in the saddle better, and, relatively,
ON the contrary, the upper part of the
body and the arms are more developed,
