Washington, Feb. 2o.—Many changes
cave taken place in this city in the 28
years since James Buchanan came here
to be 6worn in as President. From a bad
ly-paved, rather shabby village it has de
veloped intoa well-paved,well-shaded, at
tractive city, not without village charac
teristics, but with most of tae conveni
ences found in the best towns in the
country. Very few of the public men
whs were prominent when the last Demo
cratic President was inaugurated will be
conspicuous at the next inauguration.
Tho-e who are not dead are too old to be
useful in pub:ic bfe. Some of them will
be here, full of reminiscences of the oc
casion briefly described in this letter. The
uJ, the Democrat of 18$.') will be incom

tire PSr.tinu->9? '.'l Uis party in power,
while th • otter will give way to a feeling
of victory that has been denied to him by
tiianv reverses at the polls.
In’ murk* and contrast to the preceding
two nays tlia morning of Wednesday,
March 4. broke with skies clear aiid
bright, and with sunshine which kept the
temperature bland and mild throughout
the day. It was the day that .James
Huchai an was to take the oath of office
as the last Democratic President of the
United -latea for a quarter century,
and Washington had rarely, if ever be
fore, contained so many persons as were
th-n witnin its limits. Monday, March
2. was an exceedingly cold and blustering
day. President-elect Buchanan rose very
ei.riv su the morning at his home at
Wheatland, l’a., and found the wind
sweeping over the country and howling
in the treoto.s with an energy that prom
ised him eo '-omfort, so fires the weather
was concerned, in his tedious journey to
Urn n.iioaal capital. While he was at
the breakfast table a large number el his
fri..r..u errivd Irom Lancaster. They
had braved the intense cold m order to
Off :ort tueir distinguished neighbor lrom
bis own home to~their town, where he
was to t ike the cars for Baltmore. Mr.
Buchanan quickly finished his breakfast,
ordered his carriage brought to the door,
and then pleasantly greeted his enthusias
tic friends. A few’ minutes later the car
riage appeared, the President-elect bade
farewell to such r.f his household as were
T o remain t Wheatland, and. stepping
int > the vehicle, gave the ordei to drive
on. In the carriage with Mr. Buchanan
were his private secretary, Mr. Henry,
bis niece. Miss Harriet Lane, and a young
lady frieud of the latter. Preceded and
followed by the friendly escort the party
drove rapidly to the railway station at
Lancaster, where they were received with
many and heartv cheei6 by several hun
dred citizens who had gathered to hid
Mr. Bnchaßan godspeed as he went to
Take his place at the bead of the nation.
A band ptayed patriotic airs, and the peo
ple thronged about him to shake his hand
and personally express their good wishes
foi the success of the new administra
tion. Then Mr. Buchanan and those ac
companying him stepped into a special
car provided for the party, and at 8:30
o’clock the Presidential train moved out
from Ike station.
Tne journey lrom Lancaster to Balti
more occupied about five hours. Despite
the inclement weather crowds collected
at every stopping place on the route, and
the trip took on the nature of a grand
ovation ail the way to the Monumental
City. Baltimore was reached at 1:30
o'clock. Mr. Buchanan and his compan
ions were met as they stepped from the
train by Mayor Swann and the city au
thorities and driven to Barnum’s Hotel,
where, as guests of the city, thev sat
down to a substantial dinner and ap
ixsased appetites sharpened by the keen
winds they bad encountered during the
forenoon. Remaining iu Baltimore little
longer than was r.occ96ary to enjoy so
good a dinner, the Presidential party hur
ried back to the railway station and start
ed at once on the last portion ot their
jounev.
Tne nasty departure from Baltimore
was not down on the programme of the
trip as It had licen announced, and the
result was a great disappointment for a
good many jiersons. It was supposed
that Mr. Buoaanan would not leave Bal
timore until about o’clock, and plans
for his reception at the capital had been
laid accordingly. Newspaper accounts
of that date give no reason 'Or the change
gf programme. Washington at that time
was blessed with a municipal govern
ment, and the City Council had appoint
ed a committee to go Baltimore and, as
repres ntatives of the city, to escort him
to tbo capital. The famous old Jackson
Association had appointed a similareom
mittee, and a third one of the same sort
had been selected by the militia of the
District of Columbia. These committees,
together with mauy private citizens,went
over to Baltimore io perform tneir pleas
ant dutv of escorting the President-elect
to Washington. Mr.Tluchanan’s decision
to leave Baltimore at an earlier hour was
not proclaimed from the housetops, and
very few of the Washingtonians heard of
it in time to join the travelers. Three
members of the City Council’s commit
tee and two of the Jackson Association
were the only official representatives of
Aiis city who got wind of the matter soon
enough to pay their respects to Mr. Bu
chanan in Baltimore and come with him
to Washington.
The President-elect reached W ashing
ton at 5 o’clock in the afternoon. With
him were his niece. Miss Lane, and one
or twoother members of his family; John
C. Breckinridge, the Vice President-elect,
and Mrs. Breckinridge, ex-Oov. Porter.
William B. Fondney. William Carpenter,
ami Eskridge Lane, Mr. Buchanan’s
nephew. Tne Lancaster Kencioles. who
nad accompanied Mr. Buchanan to Balti
more as a guard of honor, came on a later
train, together with most of the commit
teemen and other residents oi the city
who hsd missed the Presidential train at
Baltimore. As Mr. Buchanan was not
expected before 7 o’clock there were few
persons to greet him at the station. The
United States Marshal lor the district
was on hand, however, and under his su
pervision the President-olect and his im
mediate family were escorted to an open
barouche and drawn by four horses to
the National Hotel, where parlors had
been reserved for the party. It was a very
abort drive. Otherwise, a covered car
riage would have been needed for protec
tion against the biting winds. Mr. Bu
chanan remained in the hotel during
Monday night and Tuesday, which, like
the day before, was marked by bitterly
oold weather. Hosts of visitors to the
President-elect called at the hotel and
very mauy were received. All day Tues
day large crowds gathered about the
doors of his rooms, and at times there was
much more disorder and turmoil than was
Mr. Buchanan enjoyed some repose on
Monday night, but on Tuesday night
there was too much noise and racket in
! he city to permit anybody to get a fair
night’s sleep. Over 150,000 persons were
estimated to have come to the capital to
see the new President take rffloe. This
was verv many more than the Washing
ton of IS.V7 could accommodate, and with
9 many strangers here next March manv
will be uncomfortable. Alter hotels,
boarding houses, and such private resi
dences as would open their doors had t>een
packed to their utmost limits, several
thousand late comers were still without
! shelter, and were forced to walk the
sfe* t* all night to keep from freezing.
All through the night military organiza
tions trom various parts of the country
kept pouring into the city and marching
to th. ir quart* rs wita drums beating and
bands playing. Enthusiastic members of
the successlul party murdered sleep by
tiring rockets and touching off other tire
worts during the night. Congress, too,
was in session all night, and altogether
there was kept up a din and bustle that
mu6t have penetrated the walls of every
led chamber in Washington.
During the night the weather suddenly
changed and inauguration day was ush
ered in with a temperature mild and ge
nial. The military portion of the proces
sion which was to escort the President
and President-elect to the espitol was to
form in front of the City Hall. Daybreak
found hundreds of visitors on the steps of
the City Hall, and the crowd grew into
many tnousunds, overflowing every avail
able spot in the vicinity long before tne
regulars and militiameu had got into line.
At 11 o’clock the soldiers received the
order to march from <4en. John A. Quit
man, who acted as Marshal. At New
York avenue and Fiiteenth street the
military joined tne civic societies which
were to take part in the parade. At noon
the grand procession moved down Fif
teenth street and Pennsylvania avenue to
Willard's Hotel, where the President and
President-elect were to join it. United
States soldiers and marines, militia corn
! patties from all parts of the country, or
-1 ganizations of soldiers and sailors of 1812,
tire companies trom different cities, and a
host of citiz-ns* clubs and associations,
each accompanied by a band, made up
the procession. Prominent among the
military organizations was the Albany
Burgesses Corps, the members of which
had been quartered on Capitol Hill since
early Tuesday morning as guests of the
National Grays. They had called upon
Senator Seward, visited the President,
spent their loose change at the Mechanics’
Institute Fair, and had a good time at old
Dan Rice’s circus the night before. The
old New York firemen were represented
by Howard Fire Company No. 34, which
brought along a band and an engine which
was covered with w reaths and flowers.
One of the loval associations appeared
with a liberty pole 70 feet long, set up on
a six-horse w agon. At the top of tin pole
floated a 30-foot flag. On the panels ol
the wagon were representations of peace,
war, commerce, art, agriculture, me
chanics, tine arts and the aboriginal
Amt-r<can. The handicraft of the Wash
ington na\y yard was shown, by a full
rigged and manned miniature model of
the old ship Constitution.
Mr. Buchanan had been quietly driven
to Willard’s some time before the proces
sion unveil. President Pierce was it little
behitui iime and did not reftoh the hotel
untij the procession had waited several
minuted, lie came in bis private carriage
and was warmly greeted by his successor.
A few moments laWT the President and
President-elect appeared M the Four
teenth-street bntrance to the hotel and,
while the crowd cheered wildly, the two
stepped into an open barouche. Senators
Bigler, of Pennsylvania, and Foot,ot Ver
mont, who represent, and the Senate, occu
pied the other two seats of the carriage,
and on either side rode the Marshal of the
District and his aides. The party was
driven to its place iu the line and the pro
cession immediatelv started for the capi
tol. The music of the many bauds was
I airly drowned all the way by the shouts
and 'cheers of the great throngs which
packed the sidewalks, the streets and
every spot from which the imposing pa
rade could t>e seen.
Fifty thousand persons, it is said, were
mass, din and around tbo capito! when
Mr. Buchanan stepped upon the plate.rm
which hail been erected on the east.portico
of the building, and from each throat a
great shout went up as the new President
was recognized. Surrounding Mr. Bu
chanan were the Supreme Court Judges in
their robes, all the foreign Ministers and
their suites, the members of both branches
of Congress, high army and navy officers,
and ali the dignitaries of the government
in Washington. While the oath of office
was being administered to Mr. Buchanan
by the venerable Chiet Justice Tanev
most excellent order was maintained by
the vast crowd, and was kept up while
the President was reading his inaugural
address, although not one in a hundred
could hear what was said. While cannon
were firing and bands were playing at the
close of the inauguration ceremonies,
President Buchanan entered his carriage
and was driven rapidly to the \V bite
House, where, in a few minutes, the doors
were thrown open anil the President shook
hands with the many hundreds of citi
zens who pressed forward to greet him.
Mr. Buchanan’s first public reception
took place in the White House on the fol
lowing Fridav evening. ‘
The ball with which the inauguration
dav festivities closed was a highly suc
cessful affair. It was held in a building
erected for the purpose in Judiciary
square, adjoining and connected with the
City Hall. The next inauguration ball,
singularly enough, will also take place in
this square in the pension building put
up there. President Buchanan and Miss
Lane arrived at 9:30 o’clock, accompanied
by Gen. Henderson and Com. Lavolette.
They were received by Mayor Magruder,
and*were joined by Vice President Breck
inridge and other distinguished persons,
while the hand, of course, played “Hail
to too Chief.” Among those who paid
their respects to the President were Sena
tors Douglas, Jones, of Tennessee, and
Slidell, of Louisiana; Gov. Brown, of
Tennessee; Howell Cobb and Speaker
Banks. From the time of Mr. Buchanan’s
arrival until he left, at 12:30 o’clock, the
ballroom was so crowded that dancing
was almost entirely suspended. Later
on, however, there was plenty of room
and the dancers made the most ol it. The
supper was declared to be one of the most
successful features of the ball and was
greatly enjoyed by the President.
Vice President Breckinridge was sworn
into office some time before the oath of
office was taken by President Buchanan.
J ust before the Senate closed its session
at noon of inauguration day Mr. Breckin
ridge went to the Senate chamber, where
the oath was administered to him iu the
presence of the Senate by I’resident pro
tern. James M. Mason.
PREMIER FERRY’S WIFE.
Her Beautiful Dresses and Magnificent
Figure.
I overheard a conversation the other
evening at the Elsyee.says London '1 ruth,
between M. Jules Ferry and another
guest of M. Grevy. The subject was
started by the Premier: it was his wife’s
dress, and then the beauty of her figure.
After this who can deny that Frenchmen
are not capable of being as good husbands
as Englishmen, or that the domestic vir
tues cannot take root in Paris? Said M.
Ferry: “Don’t you think my wife beau
tifully dressed this evening?” The per
son so interrogated answered: “1 en
tirely agree with you. What aston
ishes me i9 that, lime. Ferry being a
blonde, a toilet of such a bright and warm
tone becomes her. Most fair beauties
would be effaced by it.” “It's true,” an
swered the Prime Minister, whose eye
rested with unmistakable pleasure
os the tall and elegant figure of the
lady. “Notwithstanding her blonde
hair and delicate complexion,” observed
his interlocutor, “Mine. Ferry tri
omp'ne.” Certainly she was triumphant.
The dress —that is to say, corsage—and a
tunic raised at the side almost to the
waist, showing a lining of yellowish bro
cade, with flowers in the Pompadour
style, and falling in a train in long, deep
folds—w 9 of bright crimson. The petti
coat matched the rich lining. No lace
trimming of any sort broke the sharp con
trast between the body, which fitted with
the ease and neatness of a Jouviu glove,
and the white neck. Mme. Ferry’s neck
and bust have ceased to oc slender with
out becoming too matronly. She had tine
finest shoulders in the room, and held her
self gracefully erect. Iler husband had
cause to be proud of her Iteauty, and was
not alone in admiring it.

THE SAVANNAH MORNING NEWS: SUNDAY, MARCH 1, 1885.
AIiIiCdI'SFDBV AUTTTT.E MOUSE
Arousing an Elephant's Anger, Which
I-ed to a Bravo Dog’s Death.
The performance at Holmes’ Museum,
on Fulton street, Brooklyn, the other
night, says the New Y’ork Times, was
over, the audience had departed, and
nothing broke the stillness ot the place
but the hollow* tread of the night watch
man on his rounds and the irregular
breathing of many animals. The three
legged dog, curled up in a corner ot his
apartment, indulged in spasmodic dreams
of another leg. The sacred bull thought
complacently of bi 9 hump and made no
noise. The ta'lless babboon gazed long
ingly, but silently, on a neighboring mon
key’s appendage, and the surly elephant
allowed the end of his sniffing trunk to
wander noiselessly over the floor in front
of him.
Suddenly, trom around the corner of the
box in which the "sacred” mice are kept,
thero jieeped a little w hite, inquisitive
face. The face was surmounted by little
pink ears, and indented with little pink
ey*es. It was soon followed by* a little oody*
which by slow degrees appeared from
around the corner, and the little pink and
and white, timid, and frightened mouse
6tood revealed. A slight noise startled it,
and with a whisk of its little tail it disap
peared. The fright over, back it came,
slowly and timidly, and ventured a little
way out on the floor. Unfortunately it
wandered too near the lazy elephant’s
moving proboscis. Creeping slowly along,
the iittle animal suddenly encountered
this snifling trunk, and its little sense was
all gone in a trice. The little mouse was
so scared that it didn’t know what to do,
but seeing the open nostrils in the ele
phant's trunk, it darted into one with the
rapidity of lightning.
With a roar that shook the building and
drove all thoughts of repose trom the
minds of the other animals, the elephant
threw his trunk high into the air and
waved it wildly to and fro, emitting all
the while the most terrific bellowir.gs.
The animals immediately lo9t all presence
of mind, and the roaring, howling and
screaming became something terrific.
The uproar struck terror to the soul of the
watchman, who, with his big Newfound
land assistant, were iu another part of
the building. Pictures of loosened lions,
of Infuriated tigers, and of bloody and
lacerated limbs floated belore his horrified
imagination, but with the determination
ol a martyr he whistled to his trusty dog
and marched boldly to the demoralized
museum. Finding at a glance nothing
more formidable than an infuriated but
securely chained elephant to encounter,
the w atchman pursued his way with a.
more cheorlul heart. But his dog, quicker
than hiniscdf, was before him. The brave
brut' 1 made a rush for the elephant and
grabbed at one of his legs. Just then the
imprisoned mouse was dropped to the
floor, and scudded lor its formerly de
spised home and there rested, eminently
satisfied with the seeds of discord it had
sown.
But the elephant was not to be ap
peased, and turned its attention to the
dog, which was industriously, but fruit
lessly, biting at the elephant’s legs. The
elephant caught hire around the body
*ntu its trunk and, after waving him
about for a few sechluls, slammed him
violently against the opposite wall.
TjtunuwU fo*.’ a 'moment, but Undismayed,
Nero (the dog) staggered about, and then
renewed his attempts to disable his big
antagonist. The latter was only too
willing to keep up the lray, and, to an
accompaniment of ear-splitting yells,
howls and roars, it seized the dog, heat
him 011 the floor, and, when Nero was
anxious to call it quits and stop, calmly
stepped on him with both fore feet, and
held him there. Nero screamed with
pain, the watchman prodded the elephant
with the goad, but it stubbornly held the
dog, bearing all the weight of its im
mense body heavily on his prostrate
form. The dog’s cries grew weaker and
weaker, and the watchman’s prods grew
harder and harder. The proprietor him
self appeared upon the scene with a red
hot poker, and prodded the obstinate ar.t
inal's legs with it. The elephant gave up
the contest and the dog was extricated,
but be lay still as stone, and was dead.
TIU STING IX THE LORD.
A Couple Destroy a J’ald up Insurance
Policy.
Louis elite Courier-Journal.
Tne peculiar effects of the recent “faith
cure” revival in this city appear in va
rious ways. A few days ago a very
strange outcome of the belief in the new
doctrine came to light in the office of a
life insurance company in this city. Mr.
Francis Lloyd and wife entered the office
and presented to the cashier the frag
ments of an insurance policy which Mr.
Lloyd had taken out several years ago.
The policy was for SI,OOO and was paid
up, and the family were drawing a small
dividend front it yearly. Mrs. Lloyd
seemed to do most of the talking. She
handed the mutilated paper to the cash
ier with the remark that they would have
nothing more to do with it, but would
henceforth “trust in the Ford.”
The cashier was very much surprised
and undertook to reason with them, but
it was impossible. The had been
made payable to Mrs. Lloyd, with a re
version to her children, and the cashier
assured her that although she had torn
the policy to pieces that did not alter the
contract* and that the company would
give her a certificate of its destruction
which would answer evert purpose of the
original policy. The couple replied that
they would have no certificate; they were
done with the policy and the premiums,
and would never again touch a cent of
the money. They Were again assured
that should Mrs. Lloyd, the beneficiary,
refuse to accept the money on the death
of her husband it would be paid to her
children, mid that a guardian would be
provided for the purpose; that the money
did not belong to the company, and would
be in some manner paid to the proper
parties.
Mr. and Mrs. Lloyd are apparently 40and
:;s years of age respectively, and are people
of average intelligence, Mrs. Lloyd being
particularly a bright and interesting
talker. They live in Portland and are in
moderate circumstances financially, Mr.
Lloyd being a laborer. Since the advent
ot the evangelist, Bulkley, they have
brooded over their insurance policy day
and night, and, being unable to under
stand the insurance business by any rules
of arithmetic, they consequently place it
in the domain of superstition, and, un
der the influence of the laith cure craze,
they decided to end it. Among the frag
ments of the destroyed policy were other
bits of paper show ing that the parties had
treated in a similar manner another pol
icy. The amount of the second policy
was unknown.
Tlse Fewer Such Big Farms tlie Better.
Xorthicestern Hiller.
s. A. Dalrymple, of the Dalrymple farm
at Casselton, 1). TANARUS., recentiy said:
“We had this year 32,000 acres in wheat
and 2,000 acres (enough to feed the stock)
in oats. Nine successive crops have been
raised oti this luud, anil this year our
wheat averaged 14, 15 and 10 bushels to
the acre. Next year we will begin to
summer fallow, letting about 3,000 acres
lie idle each season till it has all had a
lest. We expect that alter tne summer
fallowing the yield will be from 20 to 25
bushels per acre.
“The 34.000 acies are divided into three
farms ot nearly equal size. For each ot
these there is a headquarters, with a super
intendent, bookkeeper, foreman, agent and
other officers. These farms are again di
vided into sections of 2,000 acres each,
under a division foreman, who carries out
the orders from headquarters, transmitted
to him by telephone. Each division has
its boarding-house, with men cooks. In
the spring seeding about 500 men are em
ployed. and during the harvest about
1,000. In the fall all tho hands are dis
charged except sufficient to uttend the
OX) or 500 horses and mules through the
winter. At each headquarters there is a
store, upon which the cooks make requi
sition for all provisions. The whole thing
is so systematized that we can tell to a
cent the cost of a meal’s victuals for a
man and the cost of seeding, reaping, or
plowing an acre of ground. We ship
all our Wheat to Duluth, and thence to
Buffalo, where we find the best market.
To-day wheat sells in Buffalo lor 4 cents
more, after the shipping expenses are al
lowed for, than at Duluth.”

A SINGEIt’S MODE OF LIFE.
Hints that Ambitions Amateurs May
Profit By.
Singers have the reputation ot being
capricious, says Clara Louise Kellogg, in
the Spectator, because they are exacting
In the matter of food. The average land
lord thinks that what is good enough for
one of his guests is good enough tor all,
making no exception of the artist. Mme.
Patti has encountered this landlord, so
she travels with her own chef, who pre
pares her meals for her. This is not ca
price: it is necessity. It is not that she
wants such a variety of elaborately pre
pared food, but that she wants what she
Uas to be thoroughly nutritious and di
i gestible. If she suffers from indigestion,
it affects her voice. Colds are not
the singer’s only enemies. Ill
prepared and unsuitable footl is
as injurious as a draught of air. A cele
brated Professor in Rome told Charlotte
Cushman that there were three thiugs
necessary lor a prlma donna to do—ear,
sleep and sing. Not a very intellectual
programme, you say; and I quite agree
with you. 4Vhen a singer is singing, she
has to live the most regular and sys-
I tematie life. Bhe eats her dinner at 3
\ o’clock in the afternoon, or 4 at the latest,
I and it is two or three hours before she
! goes to the theatre, and another hour and
; a half before she sings, or four hours in
I all between eating and singing. After
the opera she mav eat the little supper
that is so highly prized by all “profes
i sional” people, not because of its
! conviviality, tor it must be verv
I simple and light, but rather
j because it can be eaten with the knowl
; edge that there is plenty ol time lor di
j gestion. Sweets, highly spiced food ol
; any kind, and nuts, must be carefully
avoided by the singer, and even ice-water
is one of the very worst things for the
throat. It should never be drunk just be
fore singing, for it leaves the singer as
hoarse as if she had caught a violent cold.
She cannot drink, yet the exercise of
singing makes her want something to
moisten her throat W’itb. Different singers
use different drink9forthe refreshing of
the throat, according as their experience
has taught them. I have found beef tea
to be ot great service. 1 have
known some singers to use a gar
gle. Le Franc, the tenor famous
for his high C, used a salt and water
gargle. The singers of a jiast generation
depended a great deal upon sulphur, and
so do those of to-day, only thev take
smaller doses. Thev take it
homu opathically. Patti, ’ I am told,
puts a great deal of dependence upon
liepar sulphur. 1 use it, too, and so do
other singers who are homocopathiets,
and most of them are home opathists, for
they find that prevention is the best treat
ment lor their ailments. Nine hours a
night—or never less than eight—are nec
essary for a singer to sleep, tor her ner
vous force is heavily taxed. She must
“make her exercises” for a certain length
of time every day, for—to paraphrase
Liszt—when she fails to practice one day,
she observes it herself; when she fails tor
two days, her friends observe it, and
when she tails for three days, the public
observe it.
COLLEGE EXI’I NSIvS.
How Schools are Classified According to
Costs.
Although the difference in the amount
of money which students at different col
leges spend is very great, 6ays the Har
vard Crimson, there is not such a dispari
ty in the necessary expenses as many
people suppose. At the city colleges,
such as Harvard, Yale and Columbia,
the necessary annual expense may be
about SIOO more than at Amherst. Dart
mouth, or Williams; but this slight in
crease is more than counterbalanced by the
aid which the larger colleges offer to indi
gent students. Harvard has at her dis
posal 122 scholarships, varying in amount
from $75 to $350, averaging about $225. In
the tresnmaa year there are two assign
ments made, and it is possible for a stu
dent to receive SOOO in scholarships during
his first year—a sum more than sufficient
to pay all his expenses. Here aid is
given to students who are needy and who
stand high in their classes; but in almost
all other colleges those who intend ,to
study for the university are the favored
ones, and at some colleges It is impossi
ble for any others to receive the slightest
assistance.
Room rent, board and tuition are th
principal items in the necessary ex
penses; and oi these room rent varies the
most. At Amherst, a student pays from
s4oto $125 tor a single room;at Williams,
$25 to sl<X); at Yale, SSO to $140; while at
Harvard the rent varies all the way from
$44 to S3OO, with very few desirable
rooms for less than SSO. Of course, if
two students room together the expense
is reduced one-half. Tne difference iu the
second item, board, Is not nearly so great,
the large numbers at the city colleges
rendering co-operation much easier, and
enabling the students to procure better
board at a less cost. It is possible to get
as good board tor $4 a week here at Me
morial Hall as could be got at Arnhcst or
any other college for $5 or st>. Tuition
ranges all the way from sl2 per year at
Oberiin, Ohio, to S2OO at Columbia; at
Brown, Bowdoin, Princeton and Wil
liams, it is $75; at Amherst SIOO, at Yale
$l4O, and at Harvard $l5O. By adding to
these main items of expense other neces
sary items, such as clothing, fuel, wash
ing. books, etc., we can arrive at what
may ce called the minimum expense at
the various colleges. Statistics have been
carefully prepared at this point, and the
following may be said to be the very
least annua! expenditure which will carry
a student through the several colleges;
Harvard, $475; Yale, $425; Amherst, Wil
liams and other colleges of the same
stamp, about $375.
The Lime- Ktlu Club.
Detroit Free Press.
The Rev. Penstock, who is one of the
committee of three appointed to prepare
an almanac foi; the exclusive use" of col
ored people, submitted a protest to the ei
fect that his two companions insisted
upon having the earth revclve upon its
axes twice iu 24 hours. He wanted an
injunction to restrain them, and ne hint
ed that such conduct on their part merit
ed a public reprimand.
“Brudder Penstock,” asked the Presi
dent, “what partickler harm am it gwine
to do if dis world turns over once in 12
hours?”
“Why, sah, de world can’t do it.”
“Waal, maybe she can’t, but I feels like
givin’ her a lair show to try it. it w on’t do
any hurt, as I kin see, an’ it may stirsar
tin folkses up to pay deir debts an’ squar’
up on deir house rent. Your protest am de
clared outer order.”
Waydown Bebee said he was ready to
submit his report on the poetry question.
Several months ago he offered tho follow
ing prizes tor the best poetry sent in by a
colored poet:
First prize ■. $5 in cash
Second prize A stuffed owl
Third prize. Ten pumpkins
Fourth prize. One snow-shovel
Fifth prize One can of oysters
The first prize was aw’arded to Bad
Weather Smith, of Georgia, the lirst
verse of whose poem reads:
“Shuck corn, niggers, de pig nm er roas’in’

The second prize goes to Recollection
Johnson, ot Halifax; the third to Awful
Davis, of Ohio; the fourth to Alphabet
Jones, of Louisiana, and the fifth to Prof.
Walk*Around Hastings, of Detroit.
Extract Hastings then offered the fol
lowing preamble and resolution:
“Whkkkas. De weather prophet n w

Pickles Smith explained that man was
liable to make mistakes, and that the pro
fessor should be given another trial, but
on a vote being taken the false prophet
was decapitated In good shape.

HOW GRANT WAS INTERVIEWED
A Clever Reporter Who Got the Best of
the General’s Reserve.
.\>r York Mail and Express.
When Gen. Ulysses 8. Grant touched
terra firms, having completed his famous
trip around the world, he made a solemn
pledge to his most intimate friends that
under no circumstances would he be in
terviewed by any newspaper representa
tive. This arrangement was entered into
for the purpose of obviating the possibil
ity of interfering with the sale of the
book written by Minister to China John
Russell Young’, then well-nigh completed.
Gen. Grant reached the Fifth Avenue
hotel iu due season, and as expected was
besieged by newspaper men. He declined
to say anything whatever about his trip
beyond saying that he had enjoyed it and
so on. For two days the siego was kept
up, but the General held the fort. Finally
one of the leading morning papers singled
out a man from the city staff and detailed
him to get a story out of the General at
any cost and uuder any circumstances.
Proceeding to the Fifth Avenue hotel
the reporter held a council of war with the
veteran Clerk Carr. “There is no earth
ly use,” said he, “in sending up your
card. He has already positively declined
to see some of the best-known newspaper
correspondents in the country. If 1 were
in your place do you know what I would
do? I’d send up my card and face the
music. Take the role of a Wall street
blood; he’ll never discover you.”
The card was sent up and word came
back that Gen. jrant would see the gen
tleman. As the story goes, the scribe
weakened at the knees, but finally braced
up and mounted to the suite of rooms oc
cupied by the voyager round the world.
The old soldier was in full dress; Mrs.
Grant and a number of ladies were pres
ent. The reception-room was redolent
with tne perfumes of the choice exotics
that had been sent to the hero of Vicks
burg. The reporter bade him welcome,
was introduced to the ladies, and held a
long chat with Gen. Grant, who unsus
pectingly gave a succinct and interesting
account of his voyage. The following
morning the daily came out with a clean
“beat” of a column and three-quarters.
It was used all over the country, and the
storm that burst over Gen. Grant’s head
can be more easily imagined than de
scribed. Letters and telegrams were
thrown at him by the hundred, and he
was charged by his friends with having
violated the sanctity of his promise. He
tried hard to explain, hut it was no use,
so finally he came out with a statement
to the effect that he was not aware of hav
ing been interviewed by any newspaper
man.
About six months afterward the Ninth
regiment was reviewed by Gen. Grant in
the Madison Square garden. Belore the
review began, Gen. Shaler, knowing noth
ing, of course of the circumstances, in
troduced the writer of Phis article to the
General. He repeated the name over and
over, and then fixing his piercing orbs on
the reporter, recognized him as the one
w ho had caused him so much trouble. He
told the w'hola story to Gen. Shaler.
“It has been a wonder to me ever
since,” said be, -’how this young man
here could have made so much out of so
short a conversation, and without taking
any notes keep so close to the truth. Yon
may depend upon it, however, that I have
kept my eyes and ears open since, and lie
will be a mighty smart reporter who will
csteh me napping again,”
Professional Route to Matrimony.
S'/'ton Corresj ondenee Cincinnati CommercitiK
Sixty years ago, and even later, the
shortest path to fame and a wealthy wife
in Boston was a course 411 the Harvard
College Divinity School. A previous
graduation from the college itself was a
great, but not an indispensable, help. Its
best substitute was the attainment of a
Harvard professorship. In this ease the
ministerial programme might be omitted.
Still, the rich merchants ot Boston, who
objected to the 6ons of their wealthy
neighbors as extravagant ar:d dissipated,
and who were equally averse to making
sons-In-law of their impecunious, if
promising, clerks, regardeu young Unita
rian divines as both respectable and safe.
Edward Everett found It easy to woo and
win the daughter of the millionaire Peter
0. Brooks; Jared Sparks espoused the
wealthy Miss Silsbee, of Salem; George
Bancroft, who was then a preacher, also
married money, and a 6eeonu
Miss Brooks smiled on the offers
of the Rev. X. L. Frothingham,
father of the noted Radical of our
day, tbo Rev. Octavius Brooks Frothing
batn. The Rev. Andrews Norton, father
ot Charles Eliot Norton, married a second
Miss Eliot, and lived to become one of tLe
ablest of Unitarian polemics, assailing
w t.h equal energy old-fashioned ortho
doxy and Emersonian transcendentalism,
waich he stigmatized as “the latest form
of infidelity.” I might extend the list of
fortune-winning clergymen, hut the above
named specimens are sufficient. The
professional route to matrimony has often
proved a very successful one, though, of
course, there never have been as many
empty collego chairs as pulpits to tempt
the ambitious scholar. Neither George
Ticknor nor Henry W. Longfellow was a
graduate of Harvard. The poet received
tiis bachelor’s degree at Bowdoin College,
Maine, and afterward became a Professor
there. He married His lirst wile iu his
native State, and was a widower when he
met abroad the pleasing and wealthy Mies
Appleton, of Boston. His first overtures
were unsuccessful, but as all readers of
“Outre Mer” and “Hyperion” know, his
devotion and growing reputation tri
umphed at last, and a Harvard Professor
ship and a fortunate union were secured
at nearly the same time.
The Black schoolmaster Abroad.
A remarkable story about education in
the South, says an Atlanta letter to the
Chicago Inter-Ocean, was narrated to me
by a young fellow named Nicholson, who
is only 22 years of age. Said he:
“I have* a partner of just my age, who
helped me start a private grammar school
in the country near Edgefield, S. U., some
what less than two years ago. We got
each one of twenty colored churches in
the county to pledge five cents a member
once iu three months toward the support
of a school. The deacons of each church
are financially responsible for this sum
when the quarter rolls around. With this
and some other help we have built a school
house 40x70 leet in dimensions, with an
addition 14x20 feet, a girls’dormitory that
accommodates sixty girls, and purchased
a tract of sixty acres of land. We have
five teachers and over 400 pupils.”
“Why are you here instead of superin
tending the school?”
“Oh, my partner, Mathis, superintends
it this year, while 1 study in the univer
sity. Last year he was here and 1 was
there. You see, we have a rotation sys
tem. When Igo there this summer we
will commence to build a large dormitory
for boys. Every Thursday school lets out
at 2 p. m., instead of 4 p. m., and the two
hours are spent in industrial work—dig
ging up stumps, laying out walks, culti
vating the garden behind the girls’ dor
mitory, etc.”
“Aren’t there any whites connected
with the school?”
“Certainly not. Hardly anybody knows
there is such a school outside of the town
ship. The colored people all over the j
county are interested, however, and
flock to our exhibitions in great numbers.
A collection of over $350 was taken up on
Jan. 1 last—Emancipation day—as a
thank offering to the school.”
A Good Llttle’Girl.
* Arkansaw Traeeler.
“Now, Minnie,” said a mother to her
four-year-old daughter, “I want you to
play with your little brother while 1 am
down town.”
“An’ what will you bring me ?”
“Never mind, i will bring you some
thing; and now, mind you, it be wants to
play with your toys, you mustn’t cry.”
“Nome.”
When the lady returned, the Httle girl
ran to her and said:
“I played with my little brother. Now
what did you bring me?”
“Mamma brought you an orange.
Where’s little brother?”
“He’s asleep. Gimme the orange."
She took the orange and said: “When
he grabbed my dishes I didn't cry.”
“You didn’t? Why you are a good lit
tle girl.”
“Yessum, an’ when he grabbed my doll
I didn’t cry, eiver.”
•‘You didn’t?”
“Nome.”
“What did you say?”
“Nuffin, but 1 knocked him down yvi!
the little chair.”
The -Wardt Gras Carnival at New Orleans.
On Tuesday last, Feb. 10, the scene ot
the Carnival festivities was unprecedent

of the honesty of the 177th Grand Monthly

under the exclusive management of Gens.

He Could Eat Nails.
Buffalo, N. Y., Sept. 17,1334.
Gextlfmen—You do not sufficiently extol
the curative virtues of Benson’s Capcine Blas
ters for ailments of a dyspeptic nature. For
five years, up to about two years ago, I had
attacks of this description, lasting from three
to live weeks. During these periods I was un
able to eat anything without the greatest dis
comfort. lost flesh rapidly, and suffered a
general deterioration in health. I tried nearly
all the dvspepsia remedies ever concocted
with the hope of either curing or alleviating
mv distress. Physicians’ prescriptions were
equally inefficacious. Only by means of semi
starvation would ray stomach recover any
thing like its natural tone, and then the least
imprudence in diet would sadly upset it. Two
years ago, as above mentioned, when “enjoy
ing” one of these sc sons of mi-cry, a particu
larly severe visitation, it suddenly occurred
to me to try one o. ! Benson’s plasters. I pro
cured one and applied it to the stomachic
region. Greatly to my surprise, and much
more to my gratification, within twenty-four
hours all pain, burning and soreness had left
my stomach. Since then injudicious or ir
regular eating has several times brought on
symptoms or the old complaint, but tne ap
plication of a plaster at night insures a cure
bv morning. I have tiied tne remedy with so
satisfactory results as to give me entire confi
dence that I could eat the most indigestible
food, possibly teniienny nails If my appetite
craved them, and feel ’no apprehension of ill
effects, so long as Benson’s Capcine Plasters
are obtainable. A member of my family has
had an experience almost identical with mine,
being cured by the same means. Merely
svmpathy for those suffering with dyspepsia—
the belief that the plaster will cure the dis
ease in its incipient stages ami not unlikely
when it lias liccome chronic—prompts this
letter; it is in no sense written at the solicita
tion or with the previous knowledge of Messrs.
Seabury A Johnson. Yours, etc.,
J. J. Kobkrtson.
