Cause Of Objections.

The objections raised by the opponents
Of General Crozier were based upon the
fact that by his promotion he, q captain.
was jumped over the heads Of twenty
seven officers who were his seniors in
rank and length CT service The point
was also raised that CTozier being him
self an inventor OF army ordnance was
not qualified 70 sit as g Judge upon in
ventions rival to his own. This OBJ
lection. however. was eliminated from
the controversy by The action Of the Sec

Demands Of the Applicant.

Paymaster Rodney also appealed from
the action CT the auditor in which the
latter dizalIowed the formers claim for
the difference between 80 per cent Of
sea pay OF his grade and the active duty
pay Of said grade. which difference ROD

an officer upon the active list Of the
navy.
IN concluding his decision Mr.. Mitchell
gives some wholesome advise regarding

in part. Upon a consideration OF the
various decisions by the Attorney Gen

peaIs, 7 concur in the Presidents concIu-
sion that this case should be considered
as finally adjudicated, and that the Off

There should be an end to litigation

Dog Days Deferred.

An Albany man who was visiting
New York thought he needed a bull
dog at his. country place at Lake

bought three dogs, the selection OF
each, from three different dealers.
At Albany he had the dogs shipped
to Lake Bomoseen, then changed his
plans about going back there and
took his family home. A few days
later he received the following letter
from the stableman at Lake Bono.

TOrSon'S
Tobacco Pouch
BY H. I. CLEVELAND.

TORSON carried the mail between
Blue Duck, Hamar, the Mouse and
Cub Creek. The pay he received from
the government was comparatively
small, but the honOrs of his position
were many. BY custom he was al
lowed free feed for his horses at any
ranch-house. A plate was always put
on the table when he was seen ap-
preaching. The best draught of mill
tary punch was always at his COM
mand, and there was not pretty girl
on the trail that would not go out of
her way to greet him. All this because
he carried the mail. Yet Torson cared
for neither horse feed, good food,
punch nor winsOme smiles as he did for
his pipe and tobacco.
Torson never said much about his
pipe, but he loved it, and the pipe re-
spOnded to all his moods with a con-
ISOLATION that was unfailing. There
were other mail carriers and there
were other pipes, all well known to
Blue Duck, but Torson and his pipe
were so conspicuOusly one that they
boldly stood out from all the rest.
TorsOn was industrious and prosper
Gus. He had an amiabIe wife and
thriving children, hut even they were
never so conspicuous as the pipe.
TorsOn's tobacco pouch was made
from the inner and finer skin of an
antelope which had been well tanned
by an Indian woman and then worked
over with beads. Two long tassels
hung from it, and to one of these the
pipe was always attached when not in
use; that was when Torson was asleep
The pouch carried four ounces of
Clipped plug, or six ounces of granu-
lated tobacco, which as smoking goes
is just twice the distance between Cub
Creek and Hamar.
The pipe was a briar, with a curved
stem of amber, the bowl CARRYING just
enough tobacco so that gentle putting
would not consume its contents in less
than 80 or 30 minutes. The wood of
the bowl was from the white heath,
and in its manufacture had been so
we'll boiled and cooked that it had
the richest kind of brown hue, to which
long smoking had added polished spots
and rings of black, Consistent clean
ing had kept away from this bowl all
traces Of sourness, and the smoke
never became offensive nor the stem
heated. No sharp instrument was ever
put into the bowl but when it was
touched it was softly swabbed.
1t was Torson's fashion never 10
smoke on an empty stomach, but. as he
was never hungry, his pipe was never
ont of his mouth while he was awake.
When be had long journeys 20 make he
always carried a biscuit and dried
meat in his pocket and a bottle of
some mild drink, and by judfcious use
of these he found that his pipe was
always ready for fresh filling
Hold-ups or highway robberies were
quite infrequent inthe Blue Duck coun-
Try. While many people were on the
trails when the weather permitted.
they carried few valuables and the
temptation to rob was slight. Then,
too, men prone to highway robbery
nere not many in numbers. They
never found the climate healthfuI.

AND OF THE HusHAsY KING.


Oh. safely afloat in a wonderful boat,
From over the Shutdown Sea,
When the ude swings slow and the breeze
chants low
IN marvellous minstrelsy,
There cometh, there cometh the Hushaby
King,
And dreams are the elves that creep
Close, close by his side on the Shutdown
tide,
As he sirgeth my babe to sleep:
by, oh!-by, by-we shall go sailing, sail
ing;
swing low, swing high, over the Dream
Sea trailing.
With elves Of the Dreamland about US
awning"
This is the song Of the Hushaby King.
Oh, little blue eyes, the stars in the skies
OF the Dreamland are strangely aglow,
AND the moon is the queen of a fairyland
scene,
To watch Ger the children below;
And your boat, mid the Islands, swirgs
iazily Ger
Where the mermaids in happiness throng
And, down where they dwell, meath the
surge and the swell,
They are singing a lullaby song:
Sleep, dear; sleep, sleep, rocked on the
rest-tide billow;
While near creep, creep, elves to thy dowry
pillow;
You shall be sOOthed by the futter of
wings"
This is the song that the mermaiden sings.
Oh, the PARKWAY strand of the Hushaby
Land
Your little white feet shall press,
And the birds Of the air shall welcome you
fhere
To blisses no mortal may guess.
On wonderful trees shall the candy-fruit
grow;
Plum-cake to the bushes shall cling;
And no one shall cry: Don't touch them!
My, N.Y.
For the dream-fairies ever will sing:
Yours all, yours, dear; all to be had for
the taking;
Babes small, babes queer, just give the
trees a good shaking;
For candy in Dreamland's a very good
thing"
This is the song that the white fairies sing.
Oh, far-away strand of the Hushaby Land,
II could but go, could go
Where my baby doth float in the Lullaby
boat;
II could her rapture know
As she laughs in a dream that comes
through the night,
4 dream of the elfins at playl
But she drifteth from me Ger the Hushaby
Sea,
And aye to myself I say:
by, oh!-by, by,-babe who is drifting.
drifting;
Swing low, swing high. safe on the sleep-
tide shifting"
And my heart doth reply, though closer I
cling;
"she is safe in the arms of the Hushaby
King"
