[New York Sun.] Au old negro, wlio is very short and as fat as a traditional alderman, put his head into the forward cabin of a Cortlaudt gt re<‘t ferry-boat, a day or two ago, and looked warily about Every seat was oc cupied, and one or two persons were standing near the door. Ho took off his Imt and entered softly on tiptoe, bowing with great courtesy as he moved toward tko paddle box. His head was almost bald, and went up to a curious point at the crown. His eyes had a peculiarly foxy look, and ho smiled to himself as though enjoying a. great joke. He took up a position by the paddle-box, where lie could command a view fore and aft, and vof evidently keeping a weather eye open for the decK-hands. Every once and awhile he put his hand up to bis mouth in an apologetic way and chuckled very far down in his throat If he happened to catch the eyo of any of the passengers'at such a moment, he winked with intense meaning and chuckled louder than ever. When the boat moved out of the slip he gave one more searching glance toward the doors, and then, fixing both eyes on the ceiling, began to .whfatio “The Mocking Bird. ” »* The people stared at him iu amazement. It sounded like a full toned fiutc iu the hands of a good player. There seemed to be an immense range to it, and ho went from deep bass tones to the sharp and shrill piping tones of a piccolo. First he whistled the tune through carefully, and then he fell to giviug it all sorts of varia tions. The notes rang through the place loudly and when ho had finished he was vig orously applauded; then ho went off at n rattling rate and whistled a dance tune, and then fell back again to imitating birds. As he did so he took off his hat and began to bow and wink at the people. As be approached tho first man in the lino of scats he whistled and gurgled in his throat in a coaxing and cooing way, which was varied with a chic, chic, chic” coaxingly. The man laughed, went down in his pockot, pulled out a coin and dropped it in tho old man’s hat. Th§latter then burst into a joyous bit of melody, something after the stylet of a carol of a canary bird. Then he coaxed the next man; and so on, until he went completely around the cabin. Only two men refused to pay him, and he must have made at least $2.00 by tho time the boat landed. His face has long been familiar to New Yorkers, both on the East river, North river, and Coney island ferry boats. * Ho is known as Whistling Joe, and it is said that in the colored comm unity he is a man of importance. irpenter's letter in the PhUjufeiphU RnorJ, end ui« case perfectly described mine.

TWENTY TEAMS Cared. Not a Sign of It* Reappearance. Yonr Ccticuba has done a wonderful euro for i than two years ago. Not a sign of reappearance since.

J NO. GAS KILL. Hebbon, Thates County, Penn. IIuslQcsa at the White House. [Washington Cor. Cleveland Leader.] Ono of, the leading secretaries at tho White House tells me that the business of the executive has increased largely since the days of Lincoln and Grant. “Up uutil tho timo of Hayes, "says lie, “hardly a scrap of paper wns kept hero to show what the president did or why ho did it. .how wo keep a record of everything and 'vc make a point of answering every letter. Notes aro kept of tho contents of all im portant letters received, and by our records here, in case of on appointment, wo can tell just why and 1 upon whoso recommen dation tho appointment was made. In case tho appointee turns out badly the president is relieved of the blame and it is thrown upon thoso who recommended hiim We receive a great many letters that should go to the various departments; homo poor woman in a distant part of tho country wants a pension. Sho docs not know anything about tho pension bureau, and the only person in the government with whom.she fa acquainted is the presi dent, She writes to him. Of course her letter fa referred by us to tho pension office, and it is tho same with other letters of the same class. As the executive ollicc w carried on now it fa absolutely necessary to have a good force of clerks, and the day has passed when presidents can ask *verjr other person they meet to come and w\r« a clrnt with them at the White House." ^ What la Mlndf [Dr. Hammond's. Address.] Go Into the chemical laboratory of your own noble university—in honor of whoso rounder we are lore to-day—and touch tho P 0 ^ of a gilvanic battery. What fa u that thrills through your bodies, and perhaps even burns thp skis of your "Ogers; or, even, if ihc current bo strong enough, strikes you dead on tho instant? Galvanism. What is galvanism? A force. a °d so fa light a force, and heat, and gravitation. But when I am told this I am just os for from knowing what any 0D ® °f tho forces is as I was before. W hen, therefore, you ask mo what mind ». I answer that it fa a force, possessing peculiar properties and developed by a substance constituting a port of the nervous organism of man and other ani- W and Known to anatomists andphysi- mogista as grey nerve tissue. This Is Hmilar in all essential respects, so for os its terms are concerned, to the definition that you would give me of any other force. Of course it can bo made more precise and extensive, but no enlargement would change its character. Musical Mr. Gladstone. xr ■ [Chicago Tribune.] Air.
