SOJOURNER TRUTH.
AN ACCOUNT OF HER INTERVIEW
WITH PRESIDENT GRANT.
versonal Appearance of the “Lybian
"Sibyl"-Her Words at the Capitol—An
Introduction to Grant-An Impresslve
Interview—The Parting.
I knew Sojourner Truth more than forty
years ago in New England. She was then 70
years old. but seemed hardly beyond the
prime and glory of her womanhood. In those
days Harriet Beecher Stowe described her as
“the Lybian Sibyl,” gifted with prophetic
insight and tall and erect like a strong and
graceful African palm tree. She would do
more housework of the heaviest kind than
two ordinary women, and yet be one of the
best watchers by a sickbed at night. A sick
man she lifted to the best place on his bed as
easily .and tenderly as a mother would lift
her baby, and the touch of her hand smooth-
ing the pillow and stroking the favored brow
was health and quiet, while her wail, “There,
honey, you’s easier now,” had a strange
power to give ease and calm.
Untrained .in grammar or rhetoric, never
able to read or write, there was a quaint dis-
regard for set rule of speech in her public and
private discourse, but no flue rhetorician
could _ make his meaning plainer and few
could equal her in power of expression or ex-
uberance of imagery. A few years after the
close of the civil war I went with her to the
senate reception room in the Capitol at
. Washington. She stood beneath the center
5 "of its arched ceiling and the deep look of her
wonderful eyes seemed to take in the beauty
of pictured forms and glowing colors on its
walls, as she said: “Dis is like the picture
chambers of de New Jerusalem dat dcy read
about in do Book.” Then she looked out of
the window and saw the poor huts of the
freed people not far away, and said in tender
tones: “But they don’t have dem over there.”
A great gospel of divinity and of tender hu-
manity seemed spoken in two brief sentences.
Great souls can move other souls.
“as THE srmrr roan nun.”
In the winter of 1871-72 I spent some time
in Washington, and about midwinter learned
that Sojourner Truth was in the city. Had
I not known her ways this would have
been a surprise, for the long winter’s journey
from her home at Battle Creek, in the cen-
ter of Michigan, was a serious undertaking
for a woman near her 100th birthday. But I
knew that she always went “as the good
spirit told her,” and that some strong feeling
of duty to be done led her to the capital city.
Her way opened, not long after, for some
good service among the freedmen at the
hospitals. I soon went to see her and she
said, with great earnestness: “I believe do
good Lord sent you, for you are do very one
[wanted to se'e.” Asking what was specially
wanted, she said: “I want to see President
Grant, and you can get me there.” I told
her that was " easier said than done, but I_
would try, and the next day wrote a note. to
him, saying she wished to see him at some fit
time, took it to the White House, sent it in
to the business office, and a verbal message
soon came back to me in the v) aiting room
that any morning would suit.
In a few days Sojourner, with two ladies,
a venerable friend of Quaker birth and my-
self, went to meet the appointment and I sent .
in a card, “Sojourner Truth and friends,“
which brought back in a half hour a messen-
gcrtoescort us to President Grant’s office.
He sat at the end of a long table in the center
of the room, with documents piled before
him, and just closing an interview with other
persons. I stepped forward to introduce the
party and to bring Sojourner beside the table.
She had met President Lincoln, and he, a
born Kentuckian, could call her “Aunty” in
the old familiar way, while Grant, though
kindly, was reticent, and all was not quite
easy at first. But a happy thought came to
her., Not long before the president had
signed some‘bill of new guarantees of justice
to the colored people. She spoke of this with
gratitude; the thin ice broke and words came
freely from both, for Grant was an easy and
fluent talker, but had the wisdom of silence
until the fit time came to speak.
Standing there, tall and erect while stirred
in soul by the occasion, her wonderful eyes
glowed as she thanked him for his good deeds
and gave wise counsel in her own clear and
' quaint way.
FINE AND SIMPLE DIGNITY.
Her words came in tones full of deep power
and tenderness, and he listened with great in-
terest and respect, and told her that he
“hoped always to be just to all and especially
to see that the poor and defenseless were
fairly trea .” Hisvoice and manner told
how his heartwas touched, and his softened
tones showed how “the bravest are the ten-
derest.” She told him how his tasks and
trials were appreciated and how much faith
was placed in his upright doing of dutyto
the oppressed, and he quietly, yet lvith much
feeling, expressed the hope that he might ever
be wiSe and firm and never forget the inalien-
able rights of all.
, Only great souls can comprehend true
greatness, and these two understood each
other. Nothing in the illustrious career of
Gen. Grant gave me a fuller sense of his
largeness of heart and mind than his unpre-
tending simplicity and appreciative respect in
this interview, while the fine and simple dig-
nity of Sojourner Truth also gave me a fuller
sense of her large womanhood. She said to
him: “I have a little book here that I call my
book,of life. A good many names are in it,
and I have kept a place on the same page
with Lincoln’s for you to write your name.”
He replied: “I am glad to put it there,” and
wrote his autograph in her little book. She
then said: “It will do me good for you to
have my photograph,” and with evident
pleasure be thanked her and selected one
from several laid on the table.
The conversation had lasted beyond the
usual time, others stood by, waiting their
turn, yet listening with great interest, and
the fit time came to leave. The president
rose from his chair and gave Sojourner his
hand with a parting word of good will. This
mutual respect and appreciative sympathy
between the president of a great republic
and a woman born a slave and representing
an oppressed people was admirable and inspir-
ing.—-G. B. Stebbins.
One Woman’s Makeup. ,
I met the wife of a western congressman in
the Corcoran galler ' here the other day.
While she does not by any means represent a
type of IVnshington women, she yet combines
so many traits that are found among them
thatisho is in a certain sense representative.
She seems to be in a sort of transition state in
every particular, not only as to mental char-
actcristics, but even in her attire and Inau-
ner. She had a bonnet that reached the
furthest extreme of fashion, apair of thick
soled and awkward boots that could only
have been made by a back country cobbler,
and her attire was an indescribably odd col-
lcction of various styles and fashions. Im-
mediately beneath the new fashioned bonnet
she had an old fashioned bang. Her eyes
were bright, her color perfect, and she talked
with an enjoyment of one under a perpetual
spell of excitement.
In summing up her attire I should place it
somewhat as follows: Shoes, Keokuk; bon-
net, Paris; cloth jacket, London; gown,
Washington; massive gold chain, Chicago
parasol, New York; girdle, Vienna; accent,
London, Iowa, Paris, Illinois, New York,
New England, Germany, South Carolina and
Ireland. That these warring elements will
shortly involve a dashing and representative
American is the result to be looked for.—

Musical Instruments of Central Asia.
The Uzbeg women are jealously kept out of
sight of a male stranger, even though he may
be a distinguished guest, and he is expected to
be amused by dancing boys called batches
and musicians. The 'musical instruments of
central Asia are somewhat limited in number.
One I saw at Bokhara resembled a guitar,
forty-six inches long, with a sounding board
nine inches by four.
a bow or with the thumb. Another instru-
ment resembled the flagcolet, and had some-
thing of the hautboy sound, or between that
and the bagpipe. Singing is frequently nc-
compnnied by men beating tambourines be-
fore a. charcoal fire in a brazier, over which
from time to time'they hold their instruments
to tighten the parchment. The batches allow
their hair to grow long like that of girls, and
dress in long flowing robes and wide trousers.
Their performance interested me to see once,
but when repeated again and again it became
exceedingly tedious. The musicians on occa-
sions of dancing sit upon a. piece of felt or
carpet, dressed in their tall sheep skin hats,
which give the Uzbegs a somewhat ferocious
appearance—Dr. Henry Lansdell in Harper’s
Magazine.
Night Air Not Objectionable.
“It often has seemed queer to' Inc may av
many object o'o night air in their bedrooms,”
observed an intelligent gentleman. “We
can’t breathe any other at night. The choice
isbetween probably pure air from without
and certainly foul air from within. Half the
diseases from which we suffer are caused by
keeping the windows down. The quietness,
the absence of dust and smoke, etc, make
night the best time for airing a. patient. In
great cities night air is often the purest that
canbeha'd in thotwenty—four hours. It is
conceded that the air in London is never so
good-as lifter. 10 o’clock at night. Windows
.are lnnlle‘to open, doors are madoto shut,
, yet too many of us seem to forget that. I
keep bedroom windows open these summer .
nights, and there isn’t a more healthy family
in the city than mine.”—Philadelphia Call.
Evening Amusements.
Dr. ~Norvin Green, president of the Western
Union Telegraph ,company, thinks that a
great-many men break down from overwork.
He believes in evening amusements that take
the mind away from the shop after work is
done. He seldom works at night and trial
never to do tau—Chicago Times.

DRIVING A FINE ART.
AN EXPERT DISCOUR ES ON THE
NICETIES OF RIBBON HANDLING.
Good, Bad and Indifl‘érent Drivers—The
Ransom Terror Coming Into FnaIIIon.
Different Styles of Driving—Managing
a Four-ln-Hand.
“Ah, driving isn’t as easy as it looks,” the
“horsey man” began. “There are too many
downright idiots trusted with reins and
whips, and it’s a wonder there are not more
accidents than there are. Some of them don’t
realize the danger and more of them don’t
care. Half grown boys are always most to
be dreaded sitting behind horses, and espe—
cially in crowded streets, for there they can
do a power of mischief to other people. On
country roads they can .rarely hurt any one
but themselves. Idon’t mean fast driving,
because it isn’t often such fools are trusted
with speedy cattle. Yet a man may be run
over and hurt or killed'by a slow animal just
aswell asby afast trotter. The driving I
mean is what I call ‘sloppy' driving, where
the reins hang half loose over the dashboard,
and the animal is never under control until
after an accident has happened. Then, again,
some of the fools I’m speaking about drive
with such a tight rein that they stop the
circulation round the horse’s mouth, and they
might as well try to pull up a cyclone as at-
tempt to check even a slow beast in that state
when he’s frightened and starts to run away.
Women don’t, as a rule, drive well, although
some of them do: They’re too fidgety, shak-
ing the reins} and slashing with the whip.
They’re worse than flies, some of them, to a
nervous horse, and nearly all of them wept
too much continuous work out of an animal.
SPEAKING 0F BAD DRIVERS.
"It stands to reason, doesn’t it, that a horse
can’t go at top speed all the time? I know a
man can’t do it, and I don’t see why a horse
should be expected to do an impossibility.
But you can’t persuade some ladies of that;
they keep on flicking the animal with the
whip and nagging at him with the reins, for
all the world as if he were a contrary hus-
hand.”
“You speak of bad drivers. How can that
be remedied?"
“It can onlybe done with the drivers of
public conveyances and licensed drivers gen-
erally. You don’t trust a steam boiler‘or a
locomotive to a man until he knows how to
handle it, do you? Of course not. Then why
should you trust him with a horse that’s often
just as dangerous as any high pressure boiler
that ever was built? Why should a man that
wants to earn his living by driving horses not
be called upon to prove that he can do it?
“Look at those cab drivers we’ve got.
Why, some of them don't know and don’t
care where or how they go. They cut in be-
hind vehicles and pop out upon people, either
frightening them to death or driving over
them. Then there are those fellows who
drive two and three horse wagons. Look
how some of them turn corners. As a rule.
however, men who drive heavy vehicles are
more careful, bemuse of the weight behind
them and the room they need to make a
curve, but these light cart chaps are mostly
as bad as they make them, and cab drivers,
when they’re careless, are worse than any.
Hansoms are coming into fashion now in this
city, audif they’re not looked after they’ll
be a regular ierrorto pedestrians, although
they’ve got an easy job because they sit quite
behind the whole of the thing they drive.
The worst of them is, that they look one way
and drive another, unless they’ve got a fare
inside, and then they go as if the devil was
behind them, which he ought to be, with a
good chance of catching up with them.”
“STYLE” IN DRIVING.
“What do you think about ‘style’ in driv-
mg?”
“That there‘s as much difference in that as
there is in walking or doing anything else.
A regular coachman’s driving is not at all
like a swell’s handling the ribbons. If a
gentleman has a pair or a single before him
he rarely moves his left hand away from in
front of him at the height somewhere about
the fourth button of his waistcoat, with the
whip laid across his hand under his thumb,
using the first two fingers of his right hand
only upon the reins. And he mustn’t do this
stifily, but as e as if he were holding a
cambric handke chief or a lady’s fun. Of
course I’m speaking of a man who sits above
his animal. There can be only one way of
driving a buggy, and every man of any
sense knows how to do that, if he can drive
at a ” ‘
“How about a four-in-hand "
“I think that very few gentlemen ever
learn to do that properly. It is a regular
conchman’s business at the best and nmst be
done in coachman’s style. You see, there’s
such a bunch of ribbons in a four-in-hund'
thata man’s mind is pretty well occupiczl,.
and he must put it into the work, just lcav-'
ing enough to spare to manage the whip.
That’s a study in itself. How very few men
can flicknfly oil’ a leader’s ear and by the
same motion of the wrist make the lush whip
itself round the stick in graceful rings, until
the main part of the lush is the only large
loop left hanging, as the part near the and
comes up under his right thumb. I’ve known
men to practice that trick for weeks off the
, the couch and when they tried it on the real
thing get the whole affair into such a snarl
that it looked liken. Chinese puzzle."~Now

some sort of a brewery place when I was ac- '
costed respectfully byu pleasant faced HI-
berniau, who had been talking to some men :
who were rolling out beer barrels from the"
doorway of the place across the street. I
knew that the man who spoke to me had been ;
calling across, but I was busy with my own i
thoughts and had not noticed his words. Ills ?
speaking to me was evidently a sudden inspi- 5
ration.
“Lady!” he said in a loud, clear tone;
“lady!”
I stopped and looked at him. I should have "
supposed I would be startled at being spoken
to so imperativcly and suddenly, but the
man’s voice and manner were quite above
any personality. I had simply appeared at
an opportune momentto pointa morn-l for
him. He was lecturing a low looking man
over the way, one of the workmen employed
in rolling out the beer barrels.
“Look at that buldheaded scoundrcl 0ch-
their, lady; look at him! He hates his
mother rigilur. Do ye see that, yes booming
rascal, ye? The lady can’t bear to look a sec-
ond time at the likes of ye. To: disgrace the
neighborhood by hating yer own mother!”
I went on up the hill. and as I passed the
indignant man he stepped politely oil‘ the
sidewalk to make room for me, saying, “Och, ,
Inu’am, it would shame him well if ye’d
looked longer." ,
I bowed, but as it seemed to me that I had
done service enough vicariously as a mis
sionary, I excused myself from casting con-
demning glances upon the sinncrundcr m"
raignment.
When I rctured to my horse car; after a
walk through pleasanter streets, the man who
had employed the novel method of trying to
shame his sinful friend had disappeared. But
the barrel roller was still busy about the
door of the beer place. I glanced toward
him with some wonder as to his possible be-
havior. He had not seemed to hear his accuser
before nor to see me; but at sight of me now,
he ducked his head behind a'barrcl and re
mained in an extraordinary doubled over po-
sition of shamed semi—concealment as I
walked down the street. When I was fairly
down to the corner curiosity impelled me to
turn and look again in his direction. He was
just straightening up again to go on with his
work. I have wondered since if he feared
that I might add a postscript to his friend‘s
scathing. I should like to,I am sure, if I
knew what one could possibly say to touch
the conscience of a man “who hates his
mother regilar.”—Boston Transcript.
The Famous Slcldcs Trim.
The case not only commanded attention in
America, but was a cause celebro wherever
the English language was spoken. It was a
bloody murder, with no palliating circum-
stance save that Dan Sickles defended his do-
mestic honor under the Mosaic idea that the
udultercr could be killed if caught in the not.
There was a splendid array of counsel. Car-
lyslo and Ould, the latter then district attor-
ney and afterwards prominent in the Con-
federate war department, prosecuted Dan
Sickles. The latter was defended by Edwin
M. Stanton, the olden mouthed James '1‘.
Brady, of New ork; John Graham, the
great criminal lawyer, yet alive; Mngruder
and Charlton, of Virginia, and the brilliant
and gifted Gen. Thomas Meghan. Stanton’s
speech acquitted the prisoner.
Stanton’s idea was accepted by the defense,
the killing was admitted and the defense took
the ground that the provocation was suffi-
cient to justify acquittal. The great war
secretary quoted from John Milton, who said:
“Who knows not that chastity and probity
of living cannot be established or continued
except it be first set up in private families
whence the whole breed of men come forth,"
and with wonderful eloquence, while the
jury gazed in wrapt attention at the stalwart
eloquence of the great orator, he continued:
“The family is the cradle of sensibility
when the first lessons are taught of that ten-
derness and humanity which cement the vast
mass of mankind together, and were they ex-
tinguished the whole fabric of society would
be (lissolvod."—Philadelpbia Times.

Col. Pat Donna's Narrow Escape.
Col. Pat Donan, the western orator, who
says he is going to he the priest to unite the
north and south by means of marrying off a
lot of pretty girls from Dixie to young men
in the north, has had- many narrow escapes;
He saved, his life once by, abstaining from a
game of poker and reading the Bible. A few
years’after the war he was a passenger on a
big Misissippi steamboat bound to St. Louis
from New Orleans. The colonel was asked
to take a hand in'a game of draw poker that
was going on in the forward part of the
cabin. It was Sunday morning, and a. sad-
den impulse seized him to read something in-
stead of‘playiug poker. He had nothing to
read until he thought of a little ‘Bible that a
pretty young girl cousin gave him in New
Orleans; extracting a promise from him that
he would sooner or Intel" look between its
leaves.
In coder to keep tho poker players and the
men who watched the game from laughing
at him if they saw him' reading a Bible, he
went to his stateroom, situated about the
He had been reading
from the Psalms of David about ten minutes
when atcrriiic explosion took place, killing
outright all the poker players and the men in
the front part of the cabin. The colonel was
badly shaken up, but he managed to save a
half dozen ladies by fighting u lot of deck
hands and capturing a small boat. He took
to the water after pushing off the little boat
filled with women, and was picked up three
miles below, frozen nearly to death—New

' A Time of (II-nee.
I know the steward of a large institution
who was— bothered by the tardiness of his
subordinates in returning to the place at
night. He spoke to them several times, and
their invariable complaint was that they
couldn’t possibly get around any sooner.
The regular hour for being inside the gates
was 10 o’clock. Every night found stragglers,
who came wandering in ten, fifteen and even
twenty minutes late. The steward was at his
wits’ end. Hiswanted the “help” to obey the
rule prescribed by the regulations, and yet
he didn’t want‘to be harsh on them. After
long deliberation he had about decided to ex-
tend tho hour, to 10:30 and issue stringent
order-3&0 have the gates closed and barred at
that hour, and‘not opened again under any
consideration until the following morning.
Before doing so, however, he spoke to the
gatekeeper, telling him of the resolve to
which he had almost committed himself.
The old lodge keeper had his annoyance and
worriment with all the dilatory ones, so after
hearing the steward’s statement he looked up
quickly and remarked: “Now, don’t ye think
ye had betth‘er made it a quarter of 10 and
give them fifteen minutes’ grace to get there?
If you extend 'the time to half afther 10 you’ll
have them, just as sure as fate, comin’ in ten
minutes later." The old attendnnt’s sugges-
tion was acted upon, the hour fixed for a
quarter of IQ, and now the steward rests easy,
for all his subordinates are insido the walls
between the appointed hour and the time of
grace—“Observer” in Philadelphia Call.
A Left Handed Barber.
“1 had a peculiar experience the other day,”
said a city half official. “I was shaved by a
left handed barber and it was very queer.
Did you ever try it? Well, don’t. I was in
a constant state of terror so soon as the man
' gave me the first swipe with, the razor. It-
looked so confounded awkward that I ex-
pected every moment to hear a piece of my
nose drop on the floor. In reality he gave
me a clean shave, but the pleasure was
spoiled by the anticipation of pain. I’ve had
a left handed barber cut my liair before this
and I- didn’t mind it, but I’ll-excuse left
