In Massachusetts the most eager friends of the President are the Mugwumps. Lawyer Williams, of Boston, one of these reformers, is credited with con siderable influei ce at the WThite House. Representative Collins is ! welcome there also. This fact be came known, aud Collius was so pes tered by friends that he fled to Eng- and to get rid of them. In Vermont Smalley got what he wanted and is happy. Connecticut Waller received fat place, and "Barnum is freely consulted. New Tork is, of coi rse, taken care of personally by the Pres ident and Secretaries Manning aud Whitney. To Washington eyes the distinctive feature of the situation in that State is the studied disregard of Tammany Hall. The New Jersey Senator McPher- son was supposed to De on very friendly terms with the executive. But his trouble w ith Kelsey, it is thought will damage his influence. Randall is the Pennsylvania leader, and ex-Senator Scott is also credited with great influence. Scott repre sented Grover Cleveland here before Congress last winter in the silver coinage matter, and is supposed to be in full accord with his views on other subjects. In the little State; of Delaware Mr. Bayard lias full swing: In Maryland Senator Gor man at one time almost monopolized the President's favors, but of late he has had less attention Mr. Barbour is reckoned the most useful man to know in Virginia. In North Caroli na Senator Ransom is quoted much higher than his colleague, the anec dotal Senator Vance, who, it is said, doesn't see the joke in civil seivice reform. Rumor has it that the personal re lations of Bayard and Wade Hamp ton of South Carolina are not so cor dial as of yore, and that Senator Hampton is not so influential with this as he has been with Republican administrations. The rumor, how ever, may be tattle. No, very decid ed indications come from Georgia, but the highly resjjectable and virtu ous Senator Brown will no doubt sret his full share of administrative favors. Senator Jones is put first in influ ence among the Florida politicians, though little has gone to that State yet. Early in his administration President Cleveland gave the Ala bama delegation a sharp snub, but since then they have been quite suc cessful in getting their slade accept ed. For a time Senator Pugh was an open critic of the administration, but his converson was as sudden as that of Saul of Tarsus. He was growling at Senator Vest one day at the lack of Democracy in the admin istration when a newsboy passed, and Senator Vest bought a copy of an afternoon paper, which he found contained three appointments for which Senator Pugh had long been waiting. "Well, Pugh," said Vest, "what do you think of the administration now V "I think," replied the Alabama Senator, "that it is a model adminis tration, and deserves the support of every Democrat." Mississippi is a Cabinent State, and its patronage passes under Sec retary Lamar's eye. All was friend ly and pleasant there till Postmaster Meade, of Hazelhurst, was dismissed for his record in the bulldozing case. Meade and his Iriends think that Lunar micrht have defended their Ciuse more- uoidly, ma lie administration is just now rather at discount as a consequence. In Lou isiana the President's open partiality for the Gibson-Jonas faction has split the party into . hostile camps, and trouble is predicted in the e:ir future. I nearest access to the throne of any Ohio politician. Senator Payne is not thought to be making his points. The old Romans and war horses are not very warmly entreated to sug gest names. In Indiana Voorhees and McDonald have much more in fluence than Hendricks. In Illinois Morrison is supreme. Chairman Dickinson, of the Michigan State Democratic committee, is credited with getting attention to his wishes. Wisconsin is another Cabinet State, and is in charge of Postmaster-General Vilas.

A YANKEE ELECTRICIAN TRY ING TO SWINDLE A NORTH CAROLINA LADY. Wilmington Star. - -A correspondent of the New Or leans Picaytnie writes from New York : Virgiuia McRae, daughter oi Col. D. K. McRae, of Wilmington, N. C., has a large type-writing bu reau on Broadway. Some years ago she conceived the idea of an electri cal connection which would enable a single operator to run two or more instruments at once. This idea car ried into practice revealed the possi bility of an impoitant discovery in telegraphy, since a similar process would dispense with a necessity of copying the messages when received and insure absolute accuracy and privacy in their transmission. Miss McRae worked five years on amachine for this purpose, and was then intro duced to George Hathaway, as an expert electrician who would test the thing and see if it could be put into practical use. The machine was tak en by Mr. Hathaway and returned in a few days out of order. The next heard of him was that he had claimed the idea as his own, and organized a company in Philadelphia to introduce it. This is Miss MeRae's version oi after graduation. Gen. Lee grad uated next to bead, and he soon esr tablished for himself a fine reputa tion, which ripened with mature age, so that eveu before the war he was esteemed the finest officer in the ai my. Those who withheld that praise from him conferred it on Al bert Sydney Jonston, who at grad uating had seven ahead of him in his class. The first engineer in the army was probably Gen. Gilmer, of this State, who stood three in his class. Gen. I Jackson, who has had no superior in the history of the world ia certain qualities that achieve victory on the battlefield as w eil as success in cam paigns, had sixteen classmates "su perior" to him at West Point, and Jeb Stuart stood 13. The Star mentions that at West Point cadet Whiting was spoken of as "Solomon" because of his very re markable intellectual promise. In afterMfe Gen. Whiting was so intellectual that doubtless all the premises of his youth were fulfilled. He was conversant with a large range of subjects and his informa tion seemed almost without limit In his profession he . maintained an enviable reputation, especially as an enginees officer. Gen. Longstreet, who was one of the best fighters in tlie seivice, graduated two from foot in a large class. J. JT. Abernethy. Rev.W. M. Ro- bey, IX p., appeared for the defence and Rv-i. G. W.

The yb&JfPpL&to v hom he was alleged to have made improper overtures was oof the witness stand sixteen hours. The result of the trial was that !. Hendren was found guilty of the charge preferred against him. The coVniittee was unanimous in its repcrtj3f.lt suspends him from the ministrl and from all the ordinances of ihecijurch. The report will go upio tl".. annual conference and if it is sustaii;td Dr. Hendreu's expulsion willfoiVSv; The committee united in signing a pape which set forth that the girl wasVhclly innocent of any wrong. Thiswiiaug certified the full belief of the -fcmmittee t:that with great tenacitv j.he had retained her virtue," andt'oDSituted a complete vindica- to go to sea, aud to avoid this he was apprenticed to his brother James who was a printer. It is said that Fianklin af- once took hold of the great Archimedean lever and jerked it early and late iu the interest of freedom. It is claimed that Frankliu at this time invented a deadly weapon known as the printer's towel He found that common crash towel could be saturated with glue, molas ses, antimony, concentrated lye and roller composition, and that after a few years of time and perspiration it could harden so that the constant reader or Veritas could be stabbed with it and die so soon.

We think we are poor, but we are rich compared with the outside world. We live in a blessed land, and ought to be con tented and happy, and we would be it we didn't look over the fence too much. If our nabor buys a new car riage or paints his house or gets a new carpet, we begin to lament on our inability, to do tlie same thing. We look over the fence and come back discontented The best way is visit those who are worse off than we are. Ro!and says he is not as poor as some folks, and he told me about an old blind man who actually i plowed his cotton with a one-eyed mule, and made a pretty fair crop. What a kindness it was in our Crea tor to make, the best things the cheapest things. The rich cannot buy up all the air nor the water, nor our good health nor the love of wife and chikuen. They ':an't keep us from planting corn and potatoes, and the sun will shine and the showers will come and if we can't have luxuries of life we can rejoice in comforts. Looking over the list it would seem that a majority of those who graduated near the top bore them selves accordingly when the grand test of merit came, while, as might the matter, and she announces her have been expected, some others who determination to obtain her rights through the courts. Hathaway is now introducing the new system into Englaud. This is something after the manner in which poor John Gill, of Newbem, was swindled out of an invention perfected by himself, that put mil lions of doilars into the pocket of the ! sharp Connecticut yankee who got the patent, while the inventor died almost penniless. SIAMESE NEGRO TWTNS.. Columbus, Ga., Enqnirer. Dr. G. D. Paschah of Hurtsboro, was called to attend a negro woman on Mr. H. Ben Ferrell's plantation. Arriving there he found the woman in confinement. She finally gave birth to a child, or to children, we hardly know which. The child had two fully-developed heads on two fully-developed necks. Both heads were covered with hair and each face .presented distinct fea tures. There was only one body, but with two entirely distinct fronts, both showing it was two males. It had three legs, four arms and four hands, with one arm having a foot on one side and a hand on the other. The child was still-born, but was fully developed and weighhd ten or twelve pounds. On account of not having alcohol or ice with which to preserve it, the monstrosity was buried. The mother is reported to be getting along all right. did not secure laurels at school pos sessed in a high degree the elements of a soldier ami won fine reputations in the field.

They also promised him the county printing but he said no, he would have to go back to America or his wife would get uneasy about him. - Franklin wrote Richard's Almanac in 1732-57, and it was published m England.

Seeing a great display being erected against the wait in the second story of the veranda at the Agricultural Building, a Cirroui cle reporter ventured to ascend and ask what it was. Mr. Patrick, who was at work with some mecLanics fitting up some frames, greeted him politely and explained the object of the beautiful display, which extend ed the whole length of the building.
