A flannel cloth, wet iri hot brandy,

Bits of scraped ice are better on

For stings and poisons a strong so

t Till: TRUE HISTORY OF THE FAMOUS DIS
PATCH -THE SENDER'S PERPLEXITY.
Now York Times. Hop 1
Yesterday morning Governor llart
rauft, of Pennsylvania, rose some
what subsequent to tbe lark’s usual
hour, and after grasping the tact
that ho was in Providence, and had
on the previous evening attended a
mee i >g of tbe Grand Army of the
Republic,immediately became a prey
to melancholy. He remembered that
| he had sent a telegram to General
! Grant, "Care of Her Majesty,
| queen Victoria, Buckingham Pal
lace, Loudon,” and a terrible
doubt as to wheth< r that telegram
I had been prof or y directed
: made bis head uehe to a
1 most painful extent. When he di
reeted that telegram, he wanted lo
make sure that it would reach the
ex-President, aud assuming that the
latter was stopping with the Queen,
he had no hesitation in sending it in
: care of Iter Majesty. It was not
! until yesterday morning, that it oc
curred to him that the Queen might
not be at Buckingham Palace just at
present. He was not at nil disturbed
by the assertion of one of his aides
that the Queen constantly resides in
the Tower of London, forhe was well
aware that Buckingham Palace is
merely a wing added to the Tower of
the late Prince Consort. What made
him uneasy was the recollection that
the Queen has a country seat ;• Bal
moral, in .Scotland, where she
retires when Buckingham Pal
ace is undergoing its an
nual cleaning. If, thought
he. at this very period Bucking
ham Palace is being scrubbed and
whitewashed, and the Queen is at
I Balmoral, that telegram may never
! reach General Grant. What is
] worse, that box of cigars that was
! forwarded last Monday, directed
; precisely as was the telegram, may
! fall into the hands of the local cot
j ored minister who whitewashes tlie
palace, and may be smoked by that
! undiscrimiuating artist and his per
sonal friends. The more Governor
j Hartranft thought over tho affair,
j the worse his head ached, and the
I more clearly he saw that lie had
I been too hasty. Had ho directed
that, telegram to" Beaconsfleld,
! Esq.,” and requested him ro forward
lit, to General Grant without delay,
' there would have been no doth t that,
Gen. Grant would have reoiLedit.
! As it was, the telegram m ght never
j teach the Queen, and if it did reach
I her, she being a woman, might put
it, on her tnantiepiee at Balmoral and
: entirely forget to mention it to Gen
eral Grant for three or four days.
Governor liattranl! groaned aloud
|as this last contingency occurred to
I aim. That u telegram which ao
I chastely and beautifully informed
I General Grant that “your comrades
j * * * desire, through you to Eng
land's Queen, to thank England for
Grant’s reception,” should miscarry,
simply because of a mistake in the
address, was a bitter thought, and
as Governor Hartranft rang for more
j soda water he inwardly resolved
never to send another telegram after
dinner.
It is a pleasure, as well as a duty to
relieve so excellent, a man as Gov.
Hartranft from his present, state of
painful uncertainty. Fortunately,
there is no difficulty in so doing.
From sources as exclusive and as nu
thentio as those from which the Her
ald. obtains its war telegrams, the
Tunes has received a lull account, <<i
the reception of the Governor’s u In
gram in England, and can as.-uro.him
that it is already in tbe ex-President’s
hands. At the same time it. is proper
|to add that had it not been fora
I lucky accident that telegram would
j never have reached its destination.
At, two o'clock on Wednesday
I morning, the Prime Minister, who.
during bis term of office, always oc
cupies the second storv front bed
room in Buckingham Palace, iu or
der to bo handy if the Queen wakes
up in the night, aud thinks she
would like anew title, was aroused
by a tremendous knocking at the
frontdoor. Hastily springing out of
bed and opening the window, be saw
a boy in the uniform of the Atlantic
Gable Company, standing on the
front step, and whistling “Rule
Britannia.” To the Premier’s ex
cited demand to know where the lire
was, the buy coolly replied : “Tele
gram for your missus,” whereupon
Lord Beaconsfleld, angrily exclaim
ing “Holy Moses!” closed tho win
dow, put on his trousers, and de
scending to the door, told the boy to
‘‘hand it over.”
Now, a cable telegram costs a good
deal. There was eight pounds four
and three pence due on Governor
Hartranft’s telegram, and the boy
refused to deliver it without the
money, lienee it became necessary
to wake the Queen. The noble Earl
had to take this delicate duty upon
himself, since the servants remained
invisible, and it was with many
misgivings that be knocked at her
Majesty’s door, and after informing
j her that a boy was waiting with a
telegram for General Grant, and
! that he wanted eight, pounds four
laud threepence, meekly suggested
I that she should hand him the money
j t hrough the crack of the door. The
i Queen may not be it particularly irri
table woman, but it was hardly to be
expected that she would get out of bed,
strike a light, and hunt up her purse
without betraying some little annoy
ance. In fact, she was extremely
angry, and not only pererntorily re
fused to receive Gen. Grant’s tele
gram,-but informed Lord Beacons
tieid that, if he ever woke her up
again in the middle of the night to
ask her to pay nine pounds for some
body else’s telegrams, she would dis
miss Bdm without a character.
“Why even Gladstone,” added the
irate Queen, “hasn’t himperanee
enough to come and ’amtnerat my
door, and ask l'or fifteen or twenty
! pounds at this time of night.”
After this there seemed nothing for
the Premier to do but to tell the buy
that no person by the mime
of Grant lived at that house,
aud to stiut, the door in lii.-
faee. At that moment the fate of
Tiie telegram seemed sealed. The
boy started to return it to the office,
where it would have been endorsed
“Not found,” and Gov. Hartranft
would have been charged with its
cost. It so happened, however, that
Gen. Grant and the Prince of Wales,
who bad beeu attending a meeting
of the Society for propagating of the
Gospel among the Jews, were on
their way to the General’s lodgings,
and, passing Buckinkhain Palace,
met, the boy deaceiftllng tho front
steps. The Prince stopped and ques
tioned him, and on learning that the
Queen bad refused to pay for a tele
gram, remarked to Gen. Giant that
some day “mother would gut into
difficulties by refusing to
pay for telegrams.” and generous
ly told the boy to give him
the telegram and lie would call aud
pay for it. next. day. Meanwhile Gen.
Grant had caught sight of tho ad
dress, and thereupon paid the boy,
opened the telegram on trie spot and
read it.
Thus Gov, Ilartranfi's telegram
reached its destination, and when he
reads tlds morning’s Times ho will
regain his usual spirits. Ho is a good
soldier and a good Governor, hut it
does not seem as if nature intended
hitu to send telegrams to ex Presi
dents in Eugland. No man can do
all things. Gov. Hartranft ought to
recognize this fact, and to concede
that sending telegrams to Gen. Grant
in cure of Queen Victoria is not a
practice for which he is peculiarly
llttod.

Special t.. (.he Democrat.]
San Francisco, June 20 —The latest
from a scene 01 the Indian outbreak re
ports that the tribe known as the River
Snakes killed John Ritchie, of Idaho, a
few nays ago. Goner D'Alenes are re
am reported in pursuit ot the murderers,
it is reported that the Clear Water Indian
under Looking-Glass have turned loose
George Dempster’s place between the
middle aud south lorks ot the Clear Wa
ter river, and south forks of the stock of
settlers between these forks.
Another report that lacks confirmation
is that Gen. Howard attacked Chief
Joseph, and dislodged him from Horse
Shoe Bridge.
A Boise City dispatch mentions that on
the indication of the presence of the hos
tile Indians in Weiser valley the settlers
are leaving for a place of safety.

We hope the report is true that the
President intends presently to visit some
of the Southern Saties. YVe believe it is
settled that he will spend some weeks at
the White Sulphur Springs, where he will
undoubtedly meet a number of promin
ent :* out hem men; but, we would wish
that ho would also, even during this sum
mer. show himsili to the people in some
of the cotton Slates. They would be
glad tosee hint. They have not seen a
President, of the United States since, the
war, and the Southern policy of Mr. Hayes
will secure him a hearty welcome every
where. He vvonst probably find occa
sion to say some wise and influential
words to the people of both colors on
such a journey wnich could not help but
do good.
The summer heat may seem to make a
Southern tour inconvenient for the Presi
dent; but so many and various good re
sults would come to such a journey that
we hope the report is correct that Mr.
Mayes intends to m ike it.
A good story is toid of Paskievitch,
father of the Princess Velkousky and
grandfather of the charming Princess
Kourakine; During the siege of Warsaw
Im ii id ordered a certain Polish battery to
be silenced by Ids own artillery, and be
came perfectly wild with rage on observ
ing that the artillery fired produced no
appreciable effect. Galloping to the bat
tery he asked: ‘YVhut idiot is in charge
here?’ ‘l,sir,’answered the officer. ‘Then
you go down to the ranks this very day,’
said Paskievitch; ‘you don’t begin to
know your trade, your shells do not ex
plode.’ ‘I know they don’t’ answered
the captain: ‘for the best ot all reasons,
that they can’t explode.’ ‘That’s a lie,’
said the Prince. Tt, is? See for yourself,
then, replied the officer, colly picked op a
shell from the pile and lighting the (use,
find the holding it up between himself
and the Marshal. The Marshal tranquil
ly crossed his arms and wa.chcd till the
fuse spiff terred and went out ‘There
sir,’said the artilleryman, triumphantly,
as lie threw the shell on the ground. ‘You
were right afti r a ),’ growled the Marshal,
and rode away to another point of the
line, but at night the Captain received at
his tent tho Cross of Si. Vladimir for
bravery in tho fieid.
