AUGUSTA post-office. The Pre-ident Say* He Will Appoint a Postmaster This M eelt. Bostox, May 23. A Washington special to the Evening Rec ord says The President told G iv. Plaisted tnat he will decide the Augusta post-office mttter next wetk. Tlie only thing on which Morton’s appointment is in doubt is tlie arg ument that he was instrumental in circulai ing the campaign scandals about Blaine. So far as everything else is concerned the Presi dent is perfectly satisfied. It is understood that Plai.ted yt sterday showed the President a ricent editorial from the Augusta Journal, t which it is stated that the opposition of Blaine’s triends to Morton is not all on ac c >unt of the scandal business, but on account of Morton’s affidavit that the “Madigan cir cular” was sent out by express from Blaine’s house. This extrset had weight with the President, who promised to decide tlie case on his own judgment and not leave it to Vilas. SPRING MEETING _______ Ol the Franklin County Educational As sociation.

Appointment* by the President-Circular l»»ned by the Commin*ioner of Agri culture—De AhnaN Account* Panned— Indians an Postmasters—The Attorney General’s Opinion. Washikqtoh, Mnv 23. I he President today appointed Michael M. Phelan, o> Missouri, to be consul general at Halifax; Edward G Rose of New Mexico, to be governor of New Mexico; Moris Taylor of Dakota, to be surveyor general of Dakota cx-Seoator Thomas W. Tipton of Nebraska, to be receiver of public monies at Blooming ton, Neb D. W Ware of Missouri, to be superintendent of the Yellowstone National Paik, vice Carpenter, removed. The commissioner of agriculture today sent the following circular to agricultural colleges A sufficient number of favorable replies having been received to my last circu lar to indicate a decided pref, reiice for the dste of July 8th for holding the convention of agricultural col'eges and experiment sta tions, I have to inform you that such date has been finally determined upoo. Thi* will not only not conflict with the commencement exercises of many colleges, but also otter* those desiring to attend the convention of the National Educational Association at Saratoga July 14. pporiunity to attend both conven tions without too much loss of time. I am endeavoring to perfect an arrangement with the Pennsylvania Railroad company bv which all those arriving here bv that line can have reduced rates to Saratoga Of this and of the arrangements tor hotel accommodation you wiil be informed in due time. The postmaster general today made about 100 appointments of fourth class po-tmasters The commissioner ot the land office today passed the accounts ot Special Agent I)* Alina, allowing items aggregating $475 and disallowing $25. It was the discussion of those accounts that led to the ejectment of the special agent from the commissioner's office recently, and subsequent proceedings in the police court. There art about 75 postofficoe in Indian Ter ritory, and some ot them have been and are in charge of Indian postmasters. The ques tion whether an Indian possessing otherwise requisite attainments, but a member of one of the tribes and not a citizen ot the United States, can be lawfully appointed and quali fled as postmaster of any of the several class es, having arisen, it was reft rred to the attor ney general for his opinion. That officer holds that an Indian not ordinarily dealt wiih by the government individually, so long as his tribal relation is preserved, and therefore, “that while a member of the tribe and sub ject to tribal jurisdiction, he is not in legal contemplation competent to take the oath required by law.” The attorney general en tertains strong doubts as to the competency of an Indian in Indian Territory to give the required official bonds, and says: “In my opinion, an Indian cannot lawfully be ap p doted and qusliUed as postmaster of any of the several classes.” FUNEftAL SERVICES Of ei-Secretary of State Frelingtiuysen Many Distinguished Persons in Attendance.

THE ORIGIN OF VAN. Henry Ward Beecher’s Interesting Dis course in Flymonih Church. New Yohk, May 24. Rev. Henry Ward Beecher began a series of sermon* on ••Evolution” at Plymouth church, Brooklyn, this morning. The edi fice was crowded. Beecher’s discourse ex pressed the views of the speaker that had been known for a long time Beecher said he saw no bridge between the human race and the animal kingdom in their origin. Man had gradually grown up from a barbaric con dition. Man appeared on the earth ages be fore the time given in Christian history. The first people to gain any knowledge of God was the Hebrew race, the people on whom all the Christian world today wipes its feet. Gradually men have found God by experi ence. God gave no instructions to man originally, but left him to find out every thing himself. His only revellation was alter man had gained some idea of moral quality. The rest of Beecher's sermon was a demon stration of the devrlopement of the idea ot God in the mind of man. CAGED AGAIN. Arrest ot a Noted Burglar—Betrayed by Hia Skill. New York. May 24. On April 29 the safe of Smith A Co 45 Park Place, wa* robbed of all it contained worth having. On last Thursday night G. B Horton A Co., 59 Franklord street, suffered a similar loss. The negotiable amounts taken in either case was not large, but the methods of manipulating in each case was admirable, from a burglar’s point of view. Inspector Byrnes set to work to find the fine hand of execution. He knew that Gustavus Kenii, aiiaa French Gus, alias Isidore Mar shall, who has suffered and escaped from im prisonment several times, waa released from Sing Sing about a year ago, after having served a ten years' term, during which be had broken the prison bars twice. The inspector knew that French Gus was in New York, and suspected that from the use* employed Kents might be the man he wanted.

Tne original destination was Winnipeg, but orders by telegraph met Capt oung at Moose Jain to hand his prisoner over to the police authorities at Rigma and await further orders.

A Prince Albert despatch says: Gen. Middleton proceeds at once to Battleford, where he will demand an unconditional sur render of the Indians. He will probably then proceed to disarm the Indians. Qceuec, May 23. A warden in the Beaufort asylum in a letter to the press, denies the statement that Riel was not insane when an inmate of the asylum. He says the physicians of the a«vlum can prove that he sufiered from acute mania, and Riel's keeper can testify to haviug narrowly escaped receiving a death blow from him during a fit of madness He also states that Riel was admitted the same as other patients on an order from the government, and uid not leave the asylum of his own free will but was regularly discharged the same as other persous. Winnipeg, May 24. The telegraph wire between Clark’s'Cross ing and Prince Albert was repaired yester day. A dispatch from Prince Albert says that.

Chaff Co commission men and labor agents, with a proposition to carrying men to Guate mala. We got a permit to fix up accommo dations for 185 passengers in the hold, and made a contract with Chaff Co., at $10 per man. This was solely for transportation. We had absolutely nothing to do with feed ing. The Ella Knight carried three cargoes this way; in all several hundred men. We delivered them at l’uer to Barrios, where we got a receipt from the contractor and secre tary of ihe railroad company for each man, which, when presented at New Orleans, en titled us to $10 a head I can say nothing about the treatment of the men in the Hon duras, for 1 know nothing about it. SOCIALIST MEETING. A Speaker Who Abused the Memory of Abrahnm Liucolu Forced From the Platform. Chicago, May 24. An unkempt looking crowd of anarchists, containing a sprinkling of socialists and a few peacefully inclined working man had an open meeting on Luke front today at which the customary expressions against tyranny of capital were indulged in for some time with out creating any excitement. Finally “Dyn amite Dusey" made a speech on such an in cendiary character as to create quite a serious disturbance which was received with ap plause until he took occssion to abuse the memory of Abraham Lincoln, whom he de nounced as a “hypocrite." This incensed a number ot workmen and ordered Dusey to stop speaking. He retorted by calling Gen. Logan a liar and a thief, and returned to bis abuse of Lincoln.

It would be hard to tell how many tioies Dan has had to “shout” to the boys, lie keeps his raccoon in a box stall out ef sight and gives country lads a wide berth. The Augusta Post mastership. The Huston Journal had the following In its Washington speciui: K'litor Hass of the Bangor Commercial leaves for home to-night rather discouraged ns to the prospects of the appointment of Morton as Postmaster at Augusta. Hass frankly says that he does not think that either Blaine. Frye or Hale have instigated the op position. He charges lhat “Ed” Wilson of tlie Democratic National Committee is re sponsible for it; that Wilson supposed I e could create opposition enough to prevent Morton’s appointment and to secure the place for hi* son without attracting much atten tion. and that lie tiid not expect that the dem ocrats would make a Slate matter of it. Ed itor Bass has shown here an interview pub lished in his paper with Joe Manly some im in February, in which Manly is report ed to have said he thought Morton would secure tlie place, and believed he would be a good Postmaster. Now Bass says that Mao ley is working for Kd Wilson in opposition to Morton. Few of the Maine people who have been here share the great confidence of G ivi rnor Plaisteil that Morton will be suc cessful. Plnisted sai l late to night that he look'd for a settlement of the question by next Wednesilay. but he has had no oS eial intimation as to the President's purpo ses. Bass thinks that the Postmaster G-ner al has committed himself in someway againal Morton, and that the President will be ranch it fluenced by b|m. Baas also expressed the opinion that Hale would take no part in the matter, as it might embarrass him in his can vass tor re election. Variety Ilia Spire tfLire.

fafig fmufcr jsmwt iimla Monday Morning, May 28* Tina far the efforts to raise money in Mew Orleans to continue the exhibition am not eminently successful. A greet many Maine democrats know much more about Washington than they did before the fourth of March. 11m outlook of the summer boarding house keepers for a prosperous coming season was never more promising. Another effort is making in Washington to procure the appointment of Hubert O. Thompson to be collector of the port of Hew Tork. Senator Blackburn of Kentucky, has written to each of the departments at Washington, asking that his name be erased from every application for office which be has been endorsed. Edward Everett Hale thinks that “in these days the church has something to do besides singing, reading and praying.” Among the other things, he mentioned “hospitality, education and charity.” Logan’s election caused a great deal ol rejoicing among republicans and corre sponding sadness among democrats. Guns were fired in many places over the result, and congratulatory letters poured in upon Logan thick and fast. The question whether women can prop erly be admitted as delegates to a relig ions convention ha* been decided adverse- i ]y by tbe Southern Baptists. Two women representatives were duly accredited to the Southern convention of the denomina tion from Arkansas, but their recognition was so strongly opposed that they with drew The proposed movement to swamp the Mormon element in Utah by turning a tide of Gentile immigration into that territory, find* favor with the survivors of those who helped by a similar movement to make Kansas a free .State. It would re quire less than 160,000 immigrants to do this, and possibly halt of that number would be enough. If “offensive partisanship" is a suffi cient cause for the removal of postmasters, and being a member of a political com mittee constitutes a man an “offensive partisan," by what process of reasoning nan the appointment of Mr. Judd post master at Chicago be justified, since he is a member of the national democratic com mittee, and therefore an “offensive par tisan." The modest little one-story frame church la Washington, where Garfield used to worship, was sold a few weeks ago to a lumber dealer, and has been taken to pieces for the sake of the material that was in it. The price paid was $360. The society was very poor and the member ship exceedingly small. Sometimes they would be without a pastor several weeks. On such occasions, Garfield, who was a regular communicant, would occupy the pulpit- After the election to tho presi dency, the little church received quite a "boom." Democratic newspapers, which In recent yean have contained columns of attacks upon republican administrations on ac count of nepotism in the public service, have been silent on that subject since the new administration eanie in. although there is no lack ot material. The brother in-law has survived the change of admin istrations. Secretary Manning has given his brother-in-law a lucrative office in New Toijt; the brother-in-law of Captain Daw aou, of the national committee, has been sent to Melbourne ns Consul-General, and a brother-in-law of Senator Cockrell of Miaaonri has been appointed to succeed Guoeral Strother as Consul-General at the city ol Mexico. Relatives of other demo cratic senators are coming to the front. Sons of Senators Butler, Pugb and Vest are employed in the "Bureau of Diplo macy” in the state Department, and are eoon to be sent abroad to complete their diplomatic training at the expense of the government. Victor Hugo Victor Marie Hugo was born at Besancon, France, Dec. 27, 1802. He was the third child of Joseph Leopold Sigisbert Hugo and 8ophie Trebuchet, the daughter of a ship owner of Nantes, and a Vendean royalist, Joseph Hugo was in the array, an attache to the atafl of General Moreau, with the rank of mgjor. He waa an intelligent man, the au thor of several important military works, and characterised by extreme candor and hones ty. When a youth o* IS, his poem “On the Advantage* of Study" obtained a prixe from the Academic Francaiae. The succeeding year he received prise* for several rovali-t odes. In 1822 he published the first volume of his "Odes and Ballads,” and was vaised to the first rank of French poets. In this year ha married Mile. Foucher. His first drama, produced in 1827, was "Cromwell," and aooo after. “Let Orientaies.” a vol ume of sonoets, appeared, and were re marked for their richly imaginative quality. The event* of hit life have been largelv the events of literature. They are stirring and Inextricably inwoven with the political revo lutions of France. The French literati di vided into the two school* of Classicism and Romanticism, and of the former Victor Hugo was the acknowledged leader. He excited the enthusiasm and the reverence of the young men. The indirect influence of liter ature burdened him with i*s alow operation. HU g-niua waa electric in action, and in po litics! life he .found his complete scope of work. Hia life has been a progressive series of conflicts and of triumphs. While in ex ile be never ceased to impress France that the art ol d-sp.it* was enslaving her. lie held before bis country a lofty ideal of the duties of the citixen.

A HEiRT bKETCl She came to our far eway, quiet, bmmib tain-flanked Tillage, in early summer,and stopping first at the hotel, she registered her name as Kate Burbank ot New York. She might bare been two-and-twenty—not elder thao that—and was very pretty. No —pretty is not the word. She was beau tiful, with that style of beauty which be longs to true, livinghood. Examine her closely, and you could discover nothing grand or regal about her. She was easy, affable, anti very pleasant, with dimples in her cheeks and chin,about which bright smiles lurked most alluringly; and, fur thermore, she was not regal at all in stat ute, being rather below the medium height ot woman. And yet when she walked awav alone, in the fresh, bracing air. you would declare there was some thing regal about her after all But she dol not remain long at the ho tel. She brought letters of recommenda tion to ihe rector of our pari-h, and was I soon admitted a member of his family. To him she mid the story of her life. She was an orphan, without brother or sister. She possessed property enough to support her, in a humble way, until she could turn her ham) to some profitable and pleasant employment. She had Iriends ready and willing to help her. but she preferred to be independent. At the end of a fortnight.Mr. Edgarton, the rector, had made up his mind what profession Miss Burbank should follow. She should be a teacher of music. Her skill at the piano was a marvel, and her voice was sweetest melody. During those two weeks she had become a source of sunshine in the household, and all had come to love her. She romp-d and played with the children, over hill and dale with bounding glee; she s mg and played not only for the family, but favored visitors when they asked it; and when opportunity offered, she would sit in the rector's study, and converse with an understanding and erudition that sur prised him. Toward* the end of July the rector s nephew, Arthur Grafton, came on a visit. He had graduated at college, had studied law and had been admitted to the bar. and now before commencing practice, he had come to the mountain village for rec reation. He was lour and twenty years of age, tall, strong and robust, the very pic ture of manly health and beauty. And his beauty was ol the vigorous kind, with heart and soul in it. His brown curls shook over his high, fair forehead when he laughed, and his laugh was conlagious. At all events. Kate Burbank found it so, and a new eniovment was added to her life. And how about Arthur Grafton’s life? Did he lind new enjoyment in this unex pected inmate ol the rectory Somehow Kate stopped romping with the children, and walked with Arthur instead. He bad been a leading oarsman at college, and now he cleaned up and cushioned an old hunt belonging to a neighbor, and rowed Kate over the silvery bosom of our Lake of the Clouds. And then the evenings. What melody floated out upon the listen ing ears that gathered around. Artnur was a superb singer with a cultivated bar itone voice, and Kate made such music as had never been heard in our village before. Of course all this could tend but one wav, and the rector saw at a very early period, whiter that way would lead, tie had a strong love for his dead sister’s child, and was anxious thar his opening manhood should not be clouded. To this end he wrote to a friend in New York in whom he had entire confidence, and from whom one of the young lady a let ters of introduction had come, stating frankly the circumstances, and asking for information touching Miss Burnank’s ante cedents. He received an answer by due course of mail, that the lady in question was one whom any man, with cour age for the real work of life, might be pround to gain lor a wife. With this Mr. Edgarton waseontent.and thenceforth he allowed matters to take their own course. Certainly Arthur Orafton had never be fore met a woman to him like this woman. Strong and intellectual as he was, there was no department in his life into which she could not enter with her heart and soul. She joined him in his sports, gay and Iroliesome; she joined him in in his ssylvan rambles, dwelling fondly on the poetic side of nature; she joined and led him in music: she discussed with him understanding^ subjects and authors which he had deemed understood only by college graduates, and when it came to the graver things of life—religion, and all the duties of faith, hope and charity springing therefrom—she became almost as one inspired. Her's was a religion ot the hesrt pure and undefiled. No wonder Arthur loved her. No won der he came almost to worship her. Was it reserved tor him to gain this treasure of a life time? He would solve the problem as soon as lie could see his way clear. He wanted to be sure that she eared for him first. Cared for him If he could have known how truly and fondly the beautiful girl eared for him, earth would have been to him a heaven. And why should she not love him Stalwart and strong, true and brave, healthtul and handsome, and ten der and kind, he was her beau ideal of true manhood—her knight, her prince. How bright and joyous were the days, how sweet and enpiyabie the evenings! Arthur resolved that he would know his fate. He looked the matter squarely in the face, and made his calculations, in September he was to enter his office in New York, and influential triends had promised to assist him in business. He knew he should succeed. Within a year he would be able to support a wife. If Kate would have him and wait a year, he could work with a will. He would speak before another night shut in upon him. Before that night came Arthur and Kate, in tl.eir rambling, met Charles Dahnev of New York. I)Hhney had been Arthur's classmate in c -liege. Kate's hand trem bled on her companion's arm, and as he advanced to speak with his friend she turned away, and waited for him till lie came back. ••I>ear old Charley,” he said. “We were chums in college. I must run over to the hotel ami see him attea tea A cloud was for the time upon the beau tiful face—a cloud of anxiety and unrest— but she soon banished it, aud was as bright as before. After tea Arthur went to the hotel as he had promised A brief interchange of fraternal greetings, and then Dabney burst forth: “Look here, old fellow, how in the name of wonder did you manage to get the heiress under your wing P" “The heiress?’ repeated Arthur won deringly. (To be continued.) The great popularity and succe** ot Salva tion Oil, the great pain deitroyer, ha* made it a target for counterfeiter*. Beware of imitation*, price U cents a bottle. Iraplflant fa**: That the grc*t«*t evil* here often had their rim from wUei were deemed,originally, of too Btiletaipartanee to occasion aoBcHude; and that fetal re mit* proceed from the "eglertjof ailment*. Philip O. Baymond, Duluth, Minn., write*: “Avert Sarsaparilla cured roe of Kidney Complaint, from which I had suffered for years." The transmission of a message over a Telegraph wire 1* not a more positive proof of the electric current, than are pimples and boils of the contamination of the blood by im pure matter. Albert H. Stoddard, 59 Rock st„ Lowell, Mass., says: For years my blood has been in a bad condition. The circulation was so feeble that I suffered greatly from numbness of the feet and legs; I was also afflicted with boils. After taking three bottles of Ayer's Sarsaparilla my blood circulates freely, and I have no boils or numbness.'* Like an Electric shock, the pains of Rheumatism dart through the body. Rheumatism is a blood disease, and needs an alterative treatment. Charles Foster, 370 Atlantic ave., Boston, Mass., says: Two years ago I was pros trated by Rheumatism. I tried a variety of remedies, with little benefit, until 1 began using Ayer’s Sarsaparilla. Tins helped me, and, at the end of the fifth bottle, I was entirely cured.” Miss A. Atwood, H3 I st., South Boston, Mass., says: “I have been ill a long time, from poverty of the blood and abscesses. Ayer’s Sar saparilla has had the effect of toning me up. Under Us use I am fast gaining color, appetite, and strength.” Discoveries ara made by acicntiaU, from time to time, which astonish the worhl, but there has been no discovery, in science or medicine, more impoitant than that of Ayer’s Com pound Extract of Sarsaparilla, which baa restored health and strength to thousands. Benj. F. Tucker, Pensacola, Fla., writes: u Ayer’s Sarsaparilla cared mo of Liver and Bilious troubles, when everything ehe failed.” The usefulness of the Telephone is enhanced by the fact that it can be used to order Ayer’s Sarsaparilla from your druggist. Dr. John IToflfman, Morrisuma, N. Y., writes: “In all diseases arising from an impure and vitiated condition of the blood, there is 110 relief so prompt and sure as that afforded hv Ayer’s Sarsapa rilla.” Dr. A. B. Koberson, Chapel Hill, X. C., writes: “I wish to express my appreciation of Ayer’s Sarsaparilla. I have used it in my practice, in Scrofulous cases, with excellent results.’’ Lighting up the faces, and relieving the sufferings of thousands, Ayer’s Sarsaparilla has brought happiness to the homes of rich and poor alike. Mrs. Joseph Perreault, Little Can ada, Harris Block, Lowell, Mass., is a widow; the only support of three children. Several months ago she was suffering from general debility, and was compelled to give up work. Medical attendance failed to do any good, but, by the use of a bottle of Ayer’s Sarsaparilla, she has been enabled to resume her work, and is gaining strength daily. Use Ayer’s Sar saparilla. No other preparation is so universally esteemed for its purifying and invigor ating qualities. Prepared by Dr. J. C. Ayer Co., Lowell, Mass., U. 8. A. Sold by all druggist*.

Af ter eight« r nine months of doctoring with every remedy that I could hear of, 1 despaired of a cure. At this time ihehor-e was unable to move, because of awol en limbs. His right hind leg was a* large as a man’s body, and hud on it over forty runuing sores lie had ahoa number of large sores on his body and other limbs. He was a most pitiub'e look ing ol j ct, and I was advised to end his sufferings with the shot guu. He was a va uable animal and I d d not want to lose him. After racking mv brain in search f**r another remedy more efficacious, I thought of 8wifi’s “pec!tic. 1 knew it was invalu able to the human family as a blood purfier.and why should it not be for the animal as well? 1 did not hesitate, but sent last duly to Atlanta for a sui p y 1 began he treatment with 4 oz. o.
