AN OLD TRAVELER ADMITS IGNO RANCE OF CERTAIN CHARACTERS. He Knows Nothing of the Brutal Pollce tanta, the Insolent Conductor, the Arro gant Southerner or the Noble Eed Man "What no Has Seen. Since I was 14 years old I have made frequent toura among many different Eorts of people, and now have to confess that I have failed to find most of the characters THE POLICEMAX HE MET. presented on the stage and in current Action. They exist of course, for a mul titude of witnesses so testify, but the problem now troubling my mind is how did I miss them? I have boen in every largo city in the United States and Canada, and have never seen tho "brutal policeman" at work in any of them, though I have seen him (in very few instances) in smaller places. During seven years' life and travel in the Rocky Mountains, including the last year of Pacific railway construction and many toure through the mines, I saw but one man shot down; in much travel in Canada I did not once meet the "overbearing En glishman," and in seven extended toura of the Gulf states I utterly failed to see the "arrogant southerner." The lazy and lux uriant southerner I found rather too easily, and if I had plenty of money and nothing at all to do there is no man whose society would suit me better. Wheare the other kind keep themselvos I cannot imagine; they certainly secreted themselves when I was around. They probably heard that I was coming. "The man who does not know what fear is" I have often read of, and always with enthusiastic admiration, but'I have never seen him, though I have served in the army, militia and civil posse and scouted among tho Indians. I have shot; and been shot at (a little), apd if one xnan',3 testi mony goes for anything I am perfectly free to say that when the first shell bursted above my head I should have run like a scared dog had I not been more afraid of ridicule ai-i disgrace than of being shot. TlIS SOUTHERN' FRIEKD. I know many good soldiers, but he who "never felt fear" is a gentleman whose ac quaintance I have yet to make. He is numerous of course, for rll the books men tion him, but he has so far escaped an in troduction to mo. I havo soon Indian tribes from Winni peg to Chilniahua and from Xewfound land to Florida, and onoo traveled many hundred miles with a band, not seeing a white face for weeks, but tho "noble rod man" was absent on business travel ing with a circus, perhaps, or a delegate at Washington at any rat9 Idfd not see him. Being myself a fanatical believer in the Aryan and not a candidate, I am free to give my view of She aborigines viz., that alter tho missionaries and post traders have worked on them for anoahor century they will be so far dovcloped as to be fit for extermination, unless, indeed, they are absorbed into the American race of the future. I was born and mostly reared within cannon shot of tho Wabash river, yet Egglcston's "Hoosiors" aro as much a nov elty to me as to any Bostonian; though many Xcw Englanders aro my friends I have not seen the "typical Yankee," and in the sonth and southwest I was still more unfortunate. In Texas I found tho law against concalod weapons enforced with a vigor unknown in the northwest; the most gonorous peoplo I ever livod with were from Vermont, and if I were asked to name the two states in which tho Sabbath is most strictly observed I should select Georgia and Texas. In fact, Atlanta and Austin were during my travels the only A SCTN'E IX AUSTIN. considerable cities in which whisky on Sunday could not ba obtained by love, money or stratagem. In the latter state GaJveton is an exception, boing more like a French or other foreign city as to Sun da, while in other sections I suspect the Texans feel toward whisky and concealed weapons much as the old woman of the story did about dancing they have "teen the folly of it," In th cocrae of about 100,000 nules rail road travel I have not run against tho in sulting brakenmn or conductor. Without exception those gentlemen have acted in my presonco as gestlcmen indeed, and even tho sleeping car porter has usually kept within bounds. Beginning as the son and assistant of a stock farmer, and continu ing as student, explorer and health seeker and finally as journalist, I have traveled at least 5,c5 mike in iangthy trips on horse back, as much os foot and by stage coach, and much more by water, ia Tary state west and south of the Hudson and in Canada and Mexico, and the rude or insulting people I have taetliavo not been as one is ftv hundred. All the- tbiags make jsc thiai tfca we Americans, of. all T 5Atfr-,, frArfN rX A ltv2 iSlS 3 zlrA'ff I sorts, are a'pretly fair set of" woes', antr tr we knew each other better we should love each other more. Wo have a natural vice, however, and it is not intemperance, as bo many think. Xor is it avarice especially 'we want mo ney chiefly for.the ftm of spending it nor vanity, nor yet lico-iticmsne33. Our na tional vice is, to put it blnntly lying. This is all the more remarkable as our English cousins are Che mest inveterate truth tellers in the world. We Americans exaggerate or denreciatc everything; not one articlo or incident in a hundred is just as it is represented. If the reader thinks this a rash statament let him consider the question: How m&oy eminent men are there whose statements on any political matter would be accepted in full, as of course? Even in aiming to tell the truth they illuminate it fearfully; they illustrate it with cuts very liberal cuts. Our hu mor is chiefly broad exaggeration. And this habit is probably the reel reason why the people in each section know so little of those of other sections, why they expect when traveling to meet the people I have mentioned most of which people I have not met. J. H. Beadle. THE GRAND ARMY'S NEW CHIEF. Gen. Tcazej's Creditable Record a Sol dier and Civilian. The military record of Gen. W. G. Vea zey, recently chosen commander-in-chief of the Grand Army of the Republic at the national en campment at Bos ton is a creditable one. At the begin ning of the civil war he enlisted as a private in the Third Vermont regiment, and be fore the close of the summer of GEN. w. G. veazey. ls$i attained the rank of lieutenant colonel. In the fall of thenext year he became colonel of the Six teenth Vermont, and led St throughout its term of service. Thia regiment formed part of tho Vermont brigade that made tho famous flank assault on Pickett's divis ion at Gettysburg. When the war ended Veazey had attained tho rank of brigadier general. The new commander of tho G-. A. R, is a native of Rockingham county, N. H. After receiving a collegiate education he began the practice of law, but his profes sional pursuits were early interrupted by the outbreak of the war. He resumed them after the close of the contest, and from 18?J to 18S9 was judge of the supremo court of Vermont. He has been identified with the Grand Army for twenty-three years. He May Bo a Cardinal Yet. It is announced that within a year or so the Catholic church; of America will have a new cardinal ip the person of Peter Rich ard Kenrick, archbishop of St. Louis, who has almost completed a half century of service as a clwrch dignitary. Archbishop Kenrick is now 84 years of age. He was born at Dublin, Iieland, and ordained priest in 1830. Three years later he began bis career in the United State and in 1841 beoamp a bishop. In 1813 ho became a resident of St. Louis, and his labors have been directed from that point ever since. St. Louis was croated an archiepiscopal see in 1847, aad Pope Pius placed Dr. Kenrick in charge. His chari table and relief work during the civil war gained him general com mendation. Of late years his energies have been devoted among other things to the in troduction of re ligious orders and AIXUBISHOP KTNRICK. to the establishment of industrial and pa rochial schools and reformatories. The cemetery of St. Louis, laid out by him, is considered one of the fineit on the conti nent. Cow tho Elggor Indians Live. Tho Dinger Indians live in little hnta made of poke covered with grasses ortnle leaves, though some of them hare canvas tents which doubtless they have obtained from miners. Their lives are bounded by one horizon to get all they can to eat or drink without working for it, or hunting, which is about as bad, in that it entails fa tigue. Tne children are tenderly treated by their mothers, and their presence ig nored by the fathers. They live in dirt and squulor, and are utterly Ignorant, hav ing apparently no religion or principle, and the oaly thing that lifts them above tho level of the beasts is that they collect and prepare such food and shelter as nat ure absolutely demands. In certain sea sons some of them go to the seashore, where they gather and eat the mtwselsH limpets and abalones that they find among the rocks, and they movo about as tho grass or supply of food requires, but this even is a very slight improvement on ani mals. A Larue and Rcipectablo Cancus. Hon. Hannibal Hamlin, of Maine, doesn't hesitate to tell a jjood story, even if it in volves himself. Here ia one regarding his early political experience, wme sixty years ago: At a certain caucus in Hampden the only attendants were himself and a citizen of very largo stature. Mr. Hamlin had some rosolntions to pass, which began by representing that they were presented to a "largo and rcspectabV gathering of voters. "Hold on." cried the other man, "we can't pass that, for it ain't true. It ain't a large and respectable caucus. There's only two of us." "You keep still, brother," commanded tho wily HannibaL "It's all right, for you are large and I am respectable. You just keep still." So tho resolutions wero passed without further demur. A Specific for "Wheat Kust. It is said that an Austrab'an has discov ered a specific for rust in whewt. His con-j fldenco in the process is so great that fcoj will undertake a scries of experiments afe, his own expanse -ander the supervision of agent of the Australian colonics.

JUL An Eczema 17 Tears Cured In 8 weeks. One of the Great est Cures Ever Performed by the Cuticura Remedies. At the age of three months a rash (which after wards proved to be eczema or salt rheum) made Us appearance on my lace. Physician after physician was called. Xone ol them did me any good at all, bat made me worse. The disease continued unabat ed; It spread to my arms and leg, till I was laid up entirely, and from continually sittinc on the floor on a pillow, my limbs contracted so thet I lost all con trol of them, and was utterly helpless. Jly mother would ha e to lift me out and into bed. I could get around the house on my hands and feet, bat I could not get my clothes on at nH, and had to wear a sort of dressing gown.

"When I first applied them I was all raw and bleedin?. from scratching myself, but I went asleep almost immediately, something I had not done for jears, the effect was so soothing. In about two weeks I could stand straight, but not walk. I was so ealq but my sores were nearly well. As near as I can Judge, the Ccti curaKemcdies cured me in about six to eight weeks, anil up to this date (I. e., from January. 1379, to January, 1SS7) I have not been sick in any way. or have had the least signs of the disease reappearing on me.
