A President's Powers. South'; Companion. President Cleveland, in appointing a Chief Justice of the United ?States, is BHid not to have niudc known his Holcction to the members of his Cabinet until alter the nomination had been sent to the Senate. The (JJubinct ministers learned of his choice only after the. formal an nouncement had been made. In acting thus entirely upon his own counsel, the President did not exceed his constitutional powers, nor do other than lias before been done by Presidents of the United Slates in the making of important nomina tions. This occurrence illustrated the I difference between the usage of our own and almost every other consti tutional country. The personal power exorcised by the President of tho United States is much greater than any that maybe lawfully exer cised by the President of the French - Kebublic or by the Queen of Fug land. * Neither of those functionaries would venture to appoint even the nmgisirntc of an inferior court with ^JUl^the consent of the minister of InapOv/'^ and if the minister's advice t shall Jje**. case were not heeded, u -niimstcriiu crisis, .to be settled1 only by the y&tyof Parliament, would be Awofved. The case of the nomination of the Chief Justice is only an incident in .the exercise of the American Presi dent's power. A President, devotes much time to the e: animation of the bill* passed by Congress. Reports arc seut to him with each bill, re cording the deliberations in Congress with regard to it, and containing, when practicable, the facts and data upon which the action of Congress was taken. The President then makes Iiis de cision upon each bill. Such acts as he docs not approve he "vetoes"? that is, be returns them to Congress with his objections and these .ads cannot then become laws except by a majority of two-thirds of eacii ' House?a majority which is obtained only in exceptional oases. With us, then, what is virtually the filial fate of every measure adopt ed by a House chosen by universal suffrage lies in the hands of a func tionary elected at one remove from the people. In Franco the President is chosen by the two Houses of Par liament sitting as one body. The French President has no such powers as those which we have noted as be longing to the President of the United Slates. He promulgates the laws passed by the Chambers, but may hot veto them, lie disposes of the armed forces of the country, but only in harmony with the wishes of ministers, who represent the majori ty in the Chamber of Deputies. He appoints all the functionaries and officers, but on the presentation of the different Cabinet ministers. He appoints these ministers, it is true; but they are not responsible to him, but only to the Chambers. The President of France is, in fact, chiefly a figure-head, or at the most'u balnnee-.wheol, for the nation, performing much the same function as the monarch of a puroley consti tutional country like Fngland or Italy. He is elected for seven years, but he cannot maintain his position against an overwhelmingly hostile sentiment in Parliament. It would not do, however, to as sume, because the President, of the United States possesses so much greater powers than the President of the French Republic, that the United States is n more despotic country t han France. Though, the personal power of the French President is small, the au thority of the central government itself is much mote, extended, and much more despotically used, than that of the United Slates. Many of the Institutions of that .country arc monarchical in origin and in spirit. The central govern ment arrogates to itself powers which in this country are exercised by states, countries, cities, towns. The administrativ^ machinery of the smallest French village is set in motion by l/ho government at Paris, j Thottgn the personal powers of jU<r'French President are so much less thun those of our own President, ho is paid a much larger salary. Ho receives one hundred and twenty thousand dollars a year and consider able allowances, and is given the palace of the Elysee for a residence. Tho Prcsidont of the Foiled States has fifty thousand dollars a year, fewer allowances, and tho White House. ?ulf-a-dozen churches in New York hour upon their spires or went her-vunos the figure of a cook, though doubtless without any intent on the part of tlte builders to pre serve an ancient superstition. As an inn sign the cock goes back to days before the Christian era; but the bird became invested with a sort of saoredness among Christians after he had announced the apostaoy of Peter. One irgend has it that. (Jhrist born at cock-crow, and the bird was invested in tho middle ages with ^a, superstitious hafoof sacrettness. A Father's Wise Counsel. Charlottes* Ilk* Vnwrva*. We do not know of a lietter com pendium of rules for the government of a young man's conduct in the practical affairs of life thun is found in a letter written by Kobert K. I^ec to his sou who had left home to at tend college. It is a sublime ser mon aguinst moral cowardice by one in whom "frankness" was "the child of bravery and courage." We give the letter in full as a code, worthy of adoption by all young men: "\ou muststudy to be frank with the world; frankness is the child of bravery and courage. Say what you mean to do on every occasion. If. a friend asks a favor, you should grant | it, if it bo reasonable; if not, tell him plainly why you can not. You will wrong him mid wrong yourself by equivocation of any kind. Never do a wrong thing to make a friend or to keep one ; the man who requires you to do so is dearly purchased at a sacrifice. Deal kindly, but firmly with ypur" classmates; you will find it the policy winch wears best. Above nil, do not appear to others what you aro not. "If you have any fault to find with anyone, tell him, not others, of what you complain. There is no more dangerous experiment than that of undertaking to bo one thing liefere a man's face and another behind his back. Wo should live, act and say nothing to the injury of anyone. It is not only best as a matter of prin ciple, but it is the path to peace and honor. "In regard to dutyr let me, in con clusion of this hasty letter, inform you that nearly a hundred years ago there was a day of remarkable gloom and darkness, still known as 'the dark day,' a day when the light of the sun was slowly extinguished, as if by an eclipse* The Legislature of Connecticut was in session, and its members saw the unexpected and unaccountable darkness coinintr on: they shared in tho general awe and terror. It was supposed by many that the last day?(he Day of Judg ment had come. "Sonic one, in the consternation of (he hour, moved an adjournment. Then there arose an old Puritan legislator, Davenport of Stamford, and he said that, if the last had come, he desired to be found at his place doing his duty, and, therefore, he moved that candles be brought in, so that the House could proceed. "There was quietness in that man's mind, the quietness of heavenly wis dom and inflexible willingness (o obey present duty. Duty, then, is the sublimest word in our language. Do your duty in all things like the* old Puritan; you cannot do more; you should never wish to do less. "Never let me or your mother wear one gray hair for any lack of duty on your part." A n rot>otk 01? President Lincoln. ?At a club dinner in Brooklyn, Dr. Jerome Walker related this incident, regarding Abraham Lincoln. Dr. Walker said, in substance: "One, week before his assassination Mr. Lincoln visited the hospital at City Point, where I was stationed as a member of the United States Sani tary commission. I was (hen a boy of eighteen or nineteen. Imagine my pride at being assigned to con vey the President around the hospi tal. We spent the entire day togeth er, and I felt very big. We came to one part of the hospital where he had several tents of what were (hen called 'Hebel' prisoners. I said, with all the pride of a Northern boy: 'My Lincoln, do you want to go into all these tents?' We had gone into all the others. Ho said, in his quiet way: ?Why uot?' I replied : There are only rebels in there.' I shall never forget his big, generous hand coining on my shoulder as he said : 'You mean Confederates.' And I have meant Confederates ever since."

The origin of the distinction dates back to the War of 1x12-14, when the commis sary general of- the army could not procure, the blue cloth required for Qon.

So distin guished was the conduct of that brigade at Lundy's lame and ?hip pewa, that when after the War of 1812 a reorganization of tho West Point Military academy was made, out of compliment to General Scott, and his brigade, the uniform of the corps of cadets was changed from blue to gray.?New York Tribune. | "Hemoniber, ladies," said the Man-! ayunk philosopher, "a man iu like an egg.

"Hoes your heart beat violently after unusual exertions?" " Do you dreuiu of disagreeable things '." etc., ote. Certainly she did. Yes ; her heart hud pounded away llko a blacksmith's hatuniur only this very morning after tue oxortion of telling Mr. Donaldson what she thought of his coining home so h to tbo night before. Disagreeable things V Mrs. Donald on smiled bit terly. Hadn't she dreumed last night that her neighl>or and social rival had bigger sleoveH than hers in her uowest! silk waist r And the night before hadn't she fancied sho came back, af ter being dead u year, to tiiid that in grate, Charles Donuldsou, happily married to a mere chit of a girl . As for " that tired foolluc," nobody could tell her anything about that. Sno could givo pointers on thut subject to any Dusty Hhoades or Weary Waggles, who ever asked in vain to saw wood for his breakfast. " if," said tho advertisement, "yon are elllictcd with thct-o b^mptoms, auy or all of thorn, you are Buffering from a well-developed oaso of-and are iu a dungerous condition." Mrs. Donaldson's beurt began knock ing furiously against hur libs at the buro suggestion. She had feared she was not quite well when bIio fultsol drowsy ulter dinner, und saw wbut u yellow tinge there was to tho whites of bor eyes, but she bud hardly thought it was so bad as this. A sud dcu resolution came over her. She I would godown und consult Dr. Strange, ' She would not attempt to adtuiuister Upon her own case witli any patent remedy. She must have tho l>est of medicul ad V loo, have it '"on the'spot." Dr. Strange folt bored whon bo saw her ooraing into tho otlice. lie was an enthusiast on bacteria, and was read ing an exceedingly interesting article, ou u certain form of germ culture, in which sbo interrupted bun. General practice was a nuiouueo of which ho intended to rid himself as soon as bo should become famous through tho publication of his monograph on brain diseases aud establish himself as a grout specialist. So bo heard bor in dulgently, with his linger shut between umplitiod upon tUu suujcet, of her syiuptoms, und with u fur oil' look in his eyes, whioh she considered the proper .Kseulapian expression, as of ono comiuuning witn the undent father of his order. At least, ho seemed to hear her, which was the same to all iutents and purposes, so fur us she was concerned. LIo felt roliovod whon she got through talking, aud looking at her for the llrdt t ime, saw tho yellow tinge in the whites of hor eyes. "Yes," snid ho, "1 under stand. Always well to act in time, as you say." Thon bo gave her some thing in a bottle with directions on tho label, and told her to hu sure to shako it well before taking. " Doctor"?she paused at the door and looked back ut him. ? It" had already become immersed in thegerui culture treatise -"do you think my condition dangerous Yn "Why didn't tho woman go." thought he, irritably, preparing to turn a leaf. " Not," turning it, as be spoke, "necessarily." "But?you think it wise for mo to be?prepared?' " Well," greedily following a sentence with his eyes, "it is always wise lo have one's house set in Order." Thank goodness! She had shut the door! Now for peace and qu'et III the perusal of his hook ! lint Mrs. Donaldson's bead was in a whirl as sho made her way home. She felt like ono on the ovo of a long journey, with so many things to do. Strange to say, Mrs. Donaldson's thoughts did not dwell for any great length of time on necessary spiritual preparation to oo made. She bad never given much attention to that phase of preparation, either for life or death. She con sidered herself quite as good as her neighbors, which wus quito good enough, according to her way of thinking. She did not know what the doctor had meant by "setting or.e's house in order," but sho know what it suggested to her. She had taken it literally. Three stories and an attic ! Mrs. Donaldson had never boon ono of those ambitious souls spoken of as a "good house-keeper," who is known " by the way She keeps her brooms and her unseen rooms ;" no ono could "toll her by the v ay she kept her cel lar." She was not what sho called "nasty-nice." Sho relied much upon bired help. She liked her easy chair hotter than her knees and a scrubbing brush. She, did the orthodox " house-clean ing" twice u yeui?by proxy.

TUM ADM1MSTK YTIOS VIKW OF THE BO WEN CAHIv Judge lluohanan SontoooeH a ivlan to the Penitentiary Under the In 1unction Clause of the l>|ppun*ary When Judgo Buchanan was holding Court in Charleston ho signed injunc tions against a number of men who were charged with Helling liquor In violation of the dispensary law. Among the number wero John Wynd ham and VV. .1. I limvn, The injunctions were served on June 10. Since that date a member of the Charleston po lice force, one L. Meyers, has made affidavits charging that they have cou tiuued selling liquor in defiance of the* Injunction and in contempt of the Court. Judge Buohanan, actlug upon these affidavits, issued an urdei for Wynd haui and Boweu to show cause before him in Chambers, why they should not be ruled for contempt. The eases were heard by Judge Buohauan in his office at his residence in Suiuter. Assistant Attorney Gen eral Townsend was present to repre sent the State aud Mr. George S. Lo garo, of Charleston, appealed in behalf of Wyndham. Bowen was not repre sented nor were elthor of tho princi pals prosen*. The ease of Bowen was taken up iirst, and after the affidavits were read by Mr. Townsend fn support of the charge that Bowen had violated the Injunc tion, und was, therefore, guilty of con tempt, he was adjudged guilty of con tempt, and the following order wus issued: State of South Carolina, County of Charleston?In the Clroult Court? The Stato of South Carolina, plain tiff, vs. W. J. Bowen, dofendunt. Upon petitiou and affidavits lilod in tho above stated oase a rule was issued by mo ou the 23th day of June, A. D. 181)5, requiring W. J. Bowen, the de fendant, to show ouuso before mo at Sumter, South Carolina, on the !id day of July, A. D. 18D5, why he should uot bo attaohed and punished for contempt in disobeying the order of the tempo rary injunction granted by me on tho 17th day of Juno, A. ?. 1895. The de fendant has not appeared by counsel or lu person, and 1iai mado no return to the rule, and sorvico of tho said rule having been properly proven and shown, and it appearing from tho proof mado by affidavit that W. J. Bowen has violated tho said order of injunc tion by selling und authorizing to be sold intoxicating liquors in his pluco of business, at 11)7 King stroet, Charles ton, South Carolina. It is adjudged that the defendant, W. J. Bowen, is guilty of contempt, and that the rule be mude absolute. It is further order ed and adjudged that the said W. J. Bowen is guilty of eontompt and sub ject to tho punishment prescribed by Section 22 of tho Dispensary Act of 181)4. Whereforo it is considered of the Court and pronounced us tho judg ment, and sentence of the law that the suld W. .1.

Osmond w. Buchanan. Judre. Tho Columbia correspondent of tho News and Courier has the following comments upon the Bowen euso : "The ml ministration has had a tit for tat game. Three of tho dispensary constables who are in jail have the satisfaction of knowing that W. J. Bowen is under a sonteneo of four months In the penitentiary. It is re garded as a very drastic measure, but he administration seoms to think that this is about the only way the 'Charles ton cases can be handled.' It has been the groat threatening power which tho dispensary has held in reserve, and the authorities uro very much de lighted that it has boen brought Into requisition. They think that It Is the one thing that will kill out tho 'blind tigers.' The dispensary authorities evidently intend to lose no time in gotting I iowen to the penitentiary, or at least In making tho elfort. The papers have boon forwurded to Charles ton, and the expectation is that tho stripes will bo on Bowen by Sunday morning. " Tho Idea here is that Bowen ought to have gone u> Suinter and madu Iiis dofenoound have shown Hint, much do fenco and respect to Judge Buchanan, who lias to bo given crodit for doing what ho bolleves to bo right in tho matter. It Is said that Bowen was served with the papers four days in advance of the, hearing by Chief Con stablo Holloy, and the expectation was that ho would bo present or that COUUncl WOUld represent, him.. It is announced that Mr. C. S Bissoll, of Charleston, was expected to represent Bowen. Assitant Attorney General Townsend said that ho did not wish to have any snap judgment taken and that Judge Buchanan waited all day before signing the order, and t hat, it was expected that a telegram or some sort of explanation of the absonco would be received. Judge Townsend said that while thero wore othor cases in course of preparat on ho did .not care to say anything aboat them, but that it was intended to stop the illicit sale of liquor in one wav or another. I " In conjunction with tho announce ment of the ubo of tho dispensary bludgeon it is announced that Judgo Slinonton will not have occasion to have any of the constablos up before him for alleged violations'of his in junction. It is stated that tho con stables havo been Instructed not to sel/,o any liquor except whero suspi cious ulrcumstunces attend the in troduction of the liquor into tho Suite, but tnut tho constables are* not ex poctcd to soizo liquor while in transit or when it is for privato consumption. -'It Is pretty safe to say that some way will be found to test tho right of tho Circuit Judges to Imprison any one in such proceedings. Whether it will come up in the particular oaso heard in Sumter In not known, but the Issue has been so long* discussed and there is so much at stake that it is sure to bo the issue in unothor legal tight." The Columbia correspondent of the Atlanta Constitution writes as follows : " The dispensary officials are in high glee at tho sentenolug of W. J. Bowen, of Charleston, to the penitentiary for four months by J udgo Buchanan. They say that it in' the best thing that has happened for the dispensary since the Supreme Court declared the law to be unconstitutional, und that it will enable the officers of the law to en force the law us they never have been able to before.

A friend relates to me an incident that occurred on the evening of the day when the news of the death of Preston S. Brooks came to Massachusetts. It was at a spiritualistic ezbibi'iou held in the town of North Bridge water, now the city of Brockton. A committee of citizens had been chosen from the audi ence to sit at the table-on the platform with the medium to ask questions and otherwise represent the audience in the interest of candid investigation. Jacob W. Crosby, a well known cltixen, was one of the committee. He was to do the questioning. After a few introductory inquiries, to which replies were made by the regulation one, two or three raps, Mr. Crosby astounded the spirit world by the query, "Is the spirit of Preston 8. Brooks present?" There was no reply, and the qnestion was repeated. Then there were some hesitating rape at the table, but it could not be determined whether the answer was in the affirmative or the negative. "You know he is dead, don't you?" shouted the committeeman. The answer by raps was now distinct ly "No." "Well, K*> is, thank God," yelled Uncle Jake, who was wrought up to great excitement, as he struck the table with his ponderous fist, "And you had better make a note of it. "?Boston Her ald. FomII Ivory. The first mammoth tusk seen in west ern Europe was brought to London in 1011 by ono James Logan,who had pur chased it from tho Samoyedes, and Father Avril, a Jesuit who crossed Si beria in 1085, wrote that "tho Russians had discovered a sort of ivory whiter and omoothor than that which comes from India." _ The substance was prized, too, as a stypio and was said to bo derived from a powerful amphibious creature, "as big and as dangerous as a crocodile," living chiefly at the mouth of tho Lena. Fossil ivory toward the close of the eighteenth century became au object of general commerce, and incredible quantities wero exported from its arctic repository. Midendorf about 50 yenm ago estimated tho annual sale at 110, 000 pounds weight, and upward of 1,000 tusks are known to have reached London in 1872. Yet tho supply remains unexhausted and may indeed bo called inexhaustible. It is-tho demand which has of lato fall en off or failed. In Russia and China, it is true, almost exclusive use is made of the excavated material, but its brit tleness and tendency to discoloration practically exclude it from western markets. ?Edinburgh Review. ?Fong Foo Fing a Chinaman of Sat Francisco is an enthusiastic and ettiei ont member of tho Salvation Army, ll is rumored that he will soon bo sent to China to organize and lead an evange listic movement of the army in that c ountry. ?Hon.
