seem to fit him. Tall, gaunt, and ungainly,
he certainly looked like a rail-splitter g0in3..

called a plug hat, and, although it may have
only been of conventional length, it appeared
to me extraordmartly tall. Althcugh it may

thin“ ‘at‘_ the 1111.11.11 the stovepipe added
grea to the oddness and grotesqueris of
his appearance.

The troops worn to be reviewedou the .day
of his arrival, and I remember the General
was very much perplexed as to the character
of the President’s mount, and finally consult-
od him as to the klnd of charger he would-

 

prefer. I reniember his answer as plainly'as :

if it were only yesterday.

“General," said be, "any kind of a quiet
boast will do. I- don’t think I was cut out
for ae’av'alryman, and I' am afraid a high-
spirited warosteed might prove a little too
much for me."

’ , the General’s stud was a little sorrel

called Bonnie, the soul of gentleness
500d temper, and he at once proposed
.... .0r Mr. Lincoln’s use.

“All right,” said the President; “I guess
the mare will suit me to a T; besides, among
horses, that sex is much the easiest to man-
age. This remark, however," he added ,:
with a sly twinkle in his eye, "does not hold-
good of' humamty ”

Whéddfn I.incoln was mounted on Bon-
nie his appearance was more peculiar tli'an
ever. The little mars was not more than
fourteen hands high, and so great was the
length of the President’s legs that once fairly
settled in his saddle his feet nearly touched
the ground. As he ruefully remarked,
glancing at his extremities, “if I was only
two inches longer, I think I’d get off and
walk. ”

brilliant stsif. General Sumner looked like a
veritable cavalier of old, while the Chief
Magistrate of the Republic, by comparison,
had the appearance of some quiet country
parson who in amblingto morning service.
had fallen among military men by mistake.

However, the enthusiasm of the men for
the plain- looking civilian was tremendous,
and the-I President was much pleased with the
review. Particularly was he delighted with
the spirit of the troops, which was evidently
much better than he had expected. .

As he rode back he said to the General,
gleefully, “The boys seem as if they were
willing to go in again to morrow," a senti-
ment to which that ofllcer assented.

After oar return to camp the President
dined heartily, and toward evening went
away to visit some other generals.

It was about sight 0 'clock and getting dark
when General Sumner ordered me to send his
colored servant to him. This was a spright-
ly contraband, whom themes had christened
Stonewall Jackson, but on the present occa-
sion Stonewall belied the promptness of his
namesake 111111 Was not forthcoming.

As it turned out afterward, he had been at-
tracted by the playing. of the bands of some
New York regiments about a quarter of a
mile on our right, _.aInd of course could not
leave while there was a horn blowing.

I saw the General was getting anxiou's,and
finally he spoke ' ’

“Davis,"said he, “do you know how to
make a bed 2’

I confessed that my experience in that line
was somewhat limited. "

“So is mine," said he, “but something
must be done. -I am expecting the Pr'esid'eht
every moment, and he retires early. AsI that
black rascal hasn't turned up I s'uppos'eI we
must try and prepare his bed ourselves." :I

The General had surrendered his own eat
for the use of the President, and we at once
procsedgd to: arrange it as best we could.
We had hardly gotten fairly under way when
in walked Mr Lincoln.- _

"Hello, Sumner,” said be. “making your
bed? This 1a the first time I knew that corps
commanders acted as their own chamber-
maids.”

The General replied in the same vein
telling him that the c0t was f0r him, and ex
plaining the circumstances under which we
had felt obliged to do the work. of the darn.
liot Stonewall.

“All right," said the President, good hu-_
moredly. as he took his seat on the camp-
stool' 1n the corner, “go ahead, don’t mind
me; I‘ll merely watch you and take the les—
con, so that if you ever come to the White
House I shall 00' able 'to besiprocat'c,sh0uld iIt

We: wave getting along nicely and had
nearly finished when suddenly an idea seem-

out of the corner of his eye at the Presi-

“Or I‘m a little long, " chuckled the Presi-

“I really don‘t see how.” returned the
General, despondently. “It's very annoy.

“Well, I’ll show you,” said Mr. Lincoln,
good-humoredly,as springing up be seized
two camp-stools and placed them at the foot
of the cot. “There, that will give the neces-
sary six 'or eight inches. Just spread the
blankets over them and everything will be
all right.”

We did so, and the General, radiant with
delight, ccngratulated Mr. Lincoln upon his
ingenuity.

“Oh, ” said the President, modestly, “It’s
an old trick of mine. When I was a country
lawyer, traveling on the circuit in Illinois
twenty years ago or more, the beds were 1.11-

INSTRUCTIONS AND BULBS ISSUED
STATE BOARD. OF HEALTH.

The=Boardof Health of the state of New
sYork has issued circulars giving rules and
instructions for preventing contagious dis-
cases, as follows.

’ Diphtheria is an infectious and dangerous
disease, readily communicated by the sick
and by clothing from the sick room. The
room itself is apt to retain and communicate

‘ the infection. Its spread is prevented by

great care to have the sick, their clothing and
the persons who nurse them kept entirely
away from others, especially from children;
and to such care should be added cleansing.

-’l‘he Isick must be nursed in a- clean and

other children.

Every cloth and cup and all the clothing
and bedding used' in the sick room must be
cleansed and disinfected before being han-
dlIed or used by other persons. The house
itself must'be disinfected as' soon as the sick
recover in die. Cleanliness and ventilation
should be enforced night and day.-

rmr onsansme also DISINFECTION.

Open windows, and open fireplaces—4with
fire in them day and night—protect the sick
and all who attend them. The cloths and

boiling hot water, as soon as removed. with-
out being taken to another room. The soiled
clothing from the sick and the bed,that can be
boiled, should be thrown into a disinfecting
fiuid,made by dissolving four tabl'e-spoonsful
of sulphate of zinc (“white vitriol”) and two
table-spoonsful of common salt' 1n a gallon of
boiling water (One-fourth pound of sulphate
of zinc to two ouufls of table salt, to the gui-
lon). When the 'time for washing comes,
thoroughly boil the clothing, etc" before
. wash1ng

sick-Ir'oom should be washed with the disin-
fecting fluid. The chamber-vessels and spit-
oups used by the sick should be drenched
with this fluid before they are removed from
the room.

I The grounds surrounding the house, the
ditches and drains and the privy and chip;
yard, must be drenched with the cheap solu-_
tion fof green copperas (sulphate of iron),
.made by dissolving five pounds of the dry
copperas in a large Ipsilful of water.

As soon as the lek room is vacated lct' it be
fumigated with sulphur, and let all Irugs,beds,
blankets and other furniture remain in the
room and near where the kettles or pins of
sulphur are placed. .From two to five pounds
of sulphur, or broken Ibrimstone. laid upon
ashes and. 0001s 1n iroIn‘ vessels (set 1111:. large
tubs that contain afew inches depth of water),
will be necessary for fumigating an ordinary
chamber. The physician will direct how to
do this; but it. willbe well done if the rooms
to be fumigated are so closed that the suffo-
eating fumes do not escape from fines and
crevices, and the burning of the sulphur at
last ceases for what of fresh air before all the
sulphur is consumed. Let thefumes' be kept
shut. in all day. Finally, let all plastered
portions of the room be well whitewashed
with fresh-slacked lime Let the bottom and
sides of cellars be sprinkled thickly and re-
p'eatedl'y with quick-lime. All house drains,
ditches! fiIlthy- grounds. garbage tubs and
decaying materials should be cleared out and .
disinfected, a'nId waste-pipesflrains andsewer
connections so improved. that no gases from
them shall ent0r the house.

The sick should be'nursed by adults who
have no ohildrenIIabout them. Avoid the
patient’s breath and matters v-ejected in
coughing. .

Children and visitors should keep away
from the houie where there is diphtheria.
The burial of those who die should be

'It must he remembered that not only the
mild cases, but the convalescent, may and
frequently do» infect others fatally. and that
by this means diphtheria is thoughtlessly
spread from place to place.

It is a public a; well as domestic duty to
apply these sanhdry rules wherever a case of
diphtheria occurs. This disease should be
treated as an enemy to be conquered in every
house it enters.

Perfect drainage and cleanliness, thorough
ventilation and dryness, and repeated disin-

are necessary to the safety of the family and

The sick with scarlet fever should be placed
in an upper room with the best ventilation
and kept secluded from all except those who
"have charge of the case.

Children in the family not affected must
be prevented from mingling with other chil-
dren, and especially must be kept from
schools and meetings. Children of other
families in the same house should submit to
this rule, yet it is earnestly recommended
that uninfected children be sent sway from
the house in which there' is scarlet fever, to
families' 1n "which theré are no persons liable
to the disease.

Carpets, curtains, trunks, clothing and all
stuffed furniture and bedding should be re-
moved from the room, and the part of the
house in which the sick or dead with scarlet
fever are tobe placed.

The contagious matter thrown off from the
surface of the patient’s body 1s to be controll-
ed as much as possible by such annointing of
the body with oil, vaseline or lard, as the
physician may direct, and especially by disin-
fecting all discharges astheyI issue from the
.patient. and placing all olbthing, towels, etc ,
removed from the sick immediately in the
disinfecting fluid of zinc salt.

Apply the methods and means described
for disinfection for diphtheria. The disin-
fectant made by dissolving one-fourth of a
pound of sulphate of zinc and two ounces
of salt in a gallon of water' is best and
cheapest.

Thorough cleansing and ventilation must
be enforced. All drains, sewers, and privies
about the house should be kept Ithoronghly
disinfected.

As the liability to infect others continues
as long as there' 1s any desquamstion, or peel;
log of theskin, and possibly even longerithe
recently sick should not attend any school,
church, or company, or ride 1n a public con-
:veyance while the skin' 18 pealing, throat and
eyes sore, or any symptoms of dropsy are
present. A competent physician should

' decide what special cleansing by warm baths

with vaseline soap or chlorinated washes
should be used. In all cases lot the physi-
clan decide, and certify in writing that'the
patient is safe to others before any child
recently suffering. from scarlet fever is per-
mitted to attend school. .
-Whosoever attends upon scarlet fever pa-
tients, and whoever enters the room 'where
they are, should not mingle with persons
liable to take this fever, without changing
all clothing, after thorough ablution of hands
and head.

Burial of the dead from scarlet fever
should be strictly private, with the corpse
wrapped in a sheet saturated with the zinc
disinfectant, or' inclosed in ’an air—tight
co'ffln. When a death from this disease is
I'allnouncedI in print the notice should state
the cause as “from scarlet fever,” to prevent
attendance at Ithe funeral or visits to the
heuse. .

Separation, purification, ventilation and
disinfection of the sick and all that pertains
‘io them, as well as the rooms and bedding
th'sy have occupied, and the special sanitary.
of all persons who have been exposed or

, e
‘ air to them, are necessary for arresting the

spIread of this disease. .

- Mr. Smulley on George Eliot.

I N.Y. Tribune. ,

First and last I have met George Eliot
perhaps a dozen times. For society, in the
common sense, she did not care much. She
was not Often to be seen. I think, in the
world, certame not in those corners of‘ it
to 'which I have access. She preferred that
the world, or some of the best of it, should
come to her. To the last, and'e'ven after her
marriage with Mr. Cross, there was some
question about her actual position. Every-
body knew that she had lived openly for
years with the late George Henry Lewes,
and that she was not married to him. She
'Was' in fact, his mistress. There mere many
excuses for this irregularity of their relations.
Mr's. Lewes was living, to be sure, but was
hopelessly' msaue.- Betwoe'n Miss Evahs and
Mr'. Lewes there wery very strong intellectu-
alitios and sympathies, independently of
which a merely clever and studious man- of
auger and strenuous temperament sometimes
exercises on a sensitive nature. For Miss
'Ev'ans, though in some points firm and
masculine, had the sensitiveness, the sus-
cc tibility and external impressions which
is Ions of the surest characteristics of genius.
'Shh was convinced, I believe 'she often said,
that her obligations on the intellectual side
to Mr. Lewes were very great. . Others
thought 'the obligation was the other way,
and that George Eliot, so far from owing
anything to Lewes 'or gaining anything
from her long association with him, was
distinctlyaI loser by the connection. It is
certainly true that after Lewes had estab-
lished his influence on her mind, there was a
marked change in the character of her
work. She was aware of the change and
took pride in :.it, and :thought her work had
gained by it in quality and vdlue. Not a_
few of' her friends and admirers thought it
had deteriorated, and that as Lewes’ in-
fluence became more p'dwerful the change 111.
her method of writing became more pro-
nounced. and the deterioration more evident.
LeWes used to say, almost boastfully, that
in order to write “Daniel Deronda,” George
Eliot had read, at his instance and under his
guidance, 11 thousand books—books of Tul-
mudic lore. N0 doubt, and it was precisely
this attempt to digest this mass of learning
which makes “Daniel Deronda, as 0- novel,
sIo inferior to the “Mill on the Floss.” She
had worked simiiiar lines in earlier books,
and with a result the same in kind but less-
d1sastrous1n degree. ~ .

half of the entire quantity were distributed
in Maine. This quail(00tumw Communis)

which for centuries has been known t0.cross
the Mediterranean, in passing from its winter
home in Africa to its breeding places
throughout Europe, returning again to
Africa' in the autumn. The migratory quail
resembles' 1n outward appearancesIIour Amer-
ican ,partridge, which are called quail in
New England. The migratory quail is our-
third smaller than the. New England bird,
and the throat of the male is marked with
dark brown or black, extending from the bill
downwards.

Some young quail of the European species
were captured near St. John, N. B., a few
months ago, though none were liberated
nearer that place than at St. Stephen. Sev-
eral were heard and-seen near Machias dur-
ing last summer and autumn. None were
nearer thanIPenobsoot Valley,in5the west and
at Calais, forty miles to the east. This is
not remarkable, however, for this quail can
fly fifty miles an hour, and, unlike our
American partridge or quail, it is capable of
long :austsined flights. Migratory or true
quail multiply very rapidly, and Judge Mar-
tin G. Everts, of Rutlaud, Vt., who intro-
duced them here, predicts that in twenty
years they will be the most numerous Igame
bird in America.

The habits of these birds in, this country
are,the' same as in Europe. They arrive on
their nesting ground in May andmigrate
about the end of September.
resorts are meadoWs and fields of grain.
Their foodconsi'sts of grain, herbs and hemp

poppy and turnip seed. They feed also on

grasshoppersflvorms, insects and their eggs
andlarvc. The‘ female makes her nest in
J one or July. It is a more depression in the

ground, surrounded by a few straws, and
contains from eight to fourteen greenish

eggs, marked with large brown spots. The
notes of the male, especially in moonlight
nights' to summer, are very clear and pleas.

dious as the Bob White’s notes, they can be
heard a longer distance.
strut and a guttural clock, the quail raises
himself to ‘his full height, and then from
three to eight 'times he repeats, as near as
sea as can be written, “Pick-per-awick. " A
law was passed last winter in Maine pro-
tecting migratory quail for three years and
prescribing a ”screw penalty on any person
killing or in any way interferring with
them.

A most interesting trait exhibited by these
birds in their love for old haunts. Although
travelling thousands of miles-traversing the
Continent, indeed, in order to spend the
winter in warmer climes, yet do they re-
turn North' in the spring, not only to the
same state, but to the same wood lot, brook
'and meadow in which {they were reared.
The Hon. Everett Smith, one 0‘ the Maine
Game Commissioners, has received numer—
ous letters in proof of this fact. One of
these is from Mr. Horace P. Tobey, of'
WarehaIm, Mass, who says: “In the town'
of North Falmouth. on Cape Cod, is 'a long
wooded peninsula, known as Nye’s Point,
and owned by a Mr. Dowuer. Downer re-
leased upon this point a batch of migratory
quail. In time they bred, raised their
young and disappeared. The following
season two large flocks of migratory quail
were found upon that same wooded point.
from which they had taken their flight the
preceding year. Presumably the two covies
started were but a small portion of the birds
that had returned to take possession of their
old Quarters. Such instances are very en-
couraging for those northern and western
sportsmen who are interested in the intro-
duction into 'this country of a rapidly breed-
ing,‘ thoroughly game bird, gadapted to
furnishing abundant sport, and able to pro-
tect itself by its migrations from the deadly
winters of the north and west. .

 

Editor Forest IamIZ Stream: . ,
I am in receipt of advice, under date of
January 25, from Carl F. Braun, of Messinu,

He requests me to make public his prices
and terms for the present season, Which I
gladly do through your columns. IMr. Braun

food for the voyage, to repay the freight to
New York, and to effect marine insurance
Against total lose, all for the price of $30

however, the right to cancel the orders and
return the money in case the flight of birds
during the coming season proves to be so

without loss to himself. Those who have
received birds from Mr. Braun in previous
years will bear cheerful testimony to the
conscientious manner in which he per:-
formed his part of the contract, and to the
excellent conditio'n' 1n which the birds arriv—
ed. The greatest loss' that came to my notice
was six.~from one cage ; the average loss was
less than three per cent. and in many ones
not a single bird v'vas lost.

The terms named by Mr. Braun are cash
inndvance; evidently the only terms upon
which it is possible for him to deal with
purchasers at such a distance. Upon the
arrival of the birds they must be passed
through the. Custom; House :(duty frce) and
must be delivered to express cOmpanIie's, to

~ be forwarded to their respective destinations.

As this is a troublesome operation for par-
ties at a distance, I will, as in formér years,
at the request of Mr. Braun, -and' in order to
facilitate the importation, attend to it free
of charge and I will also receive and forward
t0 111.311.1111 any orders and money‘I sent to
me by parties desiring” to import. N0 Orders

:are received excepting for full cages of one
hundred birds each, and ,the price of large
and small lots is the same. to wit, 830 for
each cage, The latest time to forward an
order with any possibility of having it filled
is April 1; rand the chances are more than

even that orders received here. so late as that
cannot be filled.

Those desiring to Order from Mr. Braun,
will please send to me as quickly as possible
and certainly hefore April 1, their orders
with cash inclosed to the amount of $20 for
each cage, and with full address and name
of express route preferred for shipping the
birds from New York..1 will buy the
foreign exchange and send it and the orders
to Mr. Bra'un, 'after which my reopensibility
ends until the birds arrive in NEW York,
when I will see that they are' passed through
the Custom House, and given to the express
company designated by the purchaser.

Hark! the battle sounding nearer, Armaged-

By the death fires they are lighting, down

While the praying bands were kneeling in the

Comes the Conqueror born of woman to

Sleep, baby, sleep- ,I
Your father tends the sheep ;
Your mother shakes the branches small,
Whence happy dreams' 1n showers fall;
Sleep, baby, sleep. .

 

Sleep, baby, sleep:
The sky is full of sheep;

The stars the lamps of heaven are,

For whom the shepherd moon doth carer
Sleep, baby, sleep.

Sleep, baby, sleep;
The Christ Child owns a sheep ;,
He is himself the Lamb 0f'God;
The world to save, to death He trod;
Sleep, baby, sleep.

DANISH.
Sleep sweetly, little child;
Lie quiet and still;
As sweetly sleep as the bird in the wood,
As the bowers in the meadow.
God the Father has said,
“Angels stand on watch where mine,
The little ones, are in bed. "

 

roman.
The stars shine forth from the blue sky;
How great and wondrous is God’s might l
Shine, stars, through all eternity,
His: witness in'the night. .

Oh, Lord! Thy tired children keep ; '
Keep us who know and feel thy might';

Turn thine eye on us as we sleep,
And‘give usall good night. I

Shine, stars, God’s sentinels on high,
Proclaimers ‘of His power and might;
may all things evil from it fly?
'0h stars, good night, good night?

True, Heroism.

Let others write of battles fought
_ On bloody, ghastly fields,
Where honor greets the man who wins,
' And death the man who yields;
But I will write of him who fights
And vanquishes his sins,
And struggles on through weary years
Against himself, and wins.

 

He is a hero, staunch and brave,

, Who fights an unseen foe, .

And puts at last beneath his feet
His passions base and low,

And stands erect in manhood’s might,
Undaunted and undismayed,

The bravest man that drew a sword

~In foray or in raid.

It calls fer something more than brawn
Or muscle t ' roome

An enemy who archeth not
With banner, plume andfdrum. _

A foe forever lurking nigh,

~ With silent, stealthy tread,

Forever near your board by day,
At night beside your bed.

All honor, then, to that brave heart,

Though poor or rich he be,
I Who struggles, with his bases part,

Who conquers and is free 1

He may not wear a hero’s‘crown,
Nor fill a hero's grave;

But truth will placelhis name among
The bravest 0f thebrave.

 

 

, I “Old Integrity.”

Even Jay Gould will crack his joke at the
expense of his fiend Russell Sage. One
story he is very fond of telling. He says
Sage o ' was pestcred by two nuns for a
subscription to some Roman Catholic chari-
ty. To get rid 'of them he handed over 31
very reluctantly and with every evidence of
great-anguish 0f mind. But in 1.1.11.1...
quarter of an hour he was smiling again, for
to make himself good he forced six unfor- ‘
tunate put and call brokers to give him ‘1 -
extra on their- contracts. Instead of being
$1 our, he was $5 ahead, and his soul was at
peaCe. Russell Slg'c’s way of doing busi- .
ness is worth describing. If a “privilege”
broker wants to ’do business with him, he
must-come with hisbld for a “put" or “call"
or “straddle" already written on the check
in hand. Sage looks at the paper and says
ycsior no. This expedition is necessary on
account of the throng of brokers who wish
to deal on his puts and calls. But’ so eager

.is the great capitalist to turn an honest

penny that he rarely sells a “privilege with-
out‘ exacting from. $1 to $5 in cash asau
extra contribution from his customers. He
seems to think more of these petty gains
than of 1111- ten thousands he risks-in the sale
of privileges. There was a time when he
expected his customers to take him out to
lunch, but his business has become so press-
ing 'that he now takes 11 hasty “snatch" with
his lriend Sidney Dillion in the front oflce,
No.' I80 Broadway, but always at Dillion’: ex-

pense. Russell Sage' 15 a character.
