Theuk never was an inauguration where such good feeling existed between the outgoing and incoming parties. May we have always such good fueling be tween rival parties and then indeed it will beja Government "of the people by the people." If there i any truth in ths report that the Nipsic which is a United States man- of-war has been blown up by a German torpedo off Samoa, you will so'n ax an American fleet of iron triads, built on the largest plans, competent to take care of itself, and it will all be done so quick it will astonish Bismarck a good deal. "When Uncle 8am wants to make some speed he is a rusher. Although the Nip sic is a wooden vessel and alno the other two vessels we have in the Samoa water?, they are f qual to the German torco in those waters and by the time Germany gets a bitter fleet there Uncle Sam can net one or twe there also. The following from the Oskaloosa Herald gives the editors some idea of what they are created for, their fate and final doom: , 'The work of an editor in party har ness is found in the fitting of men for public station. Some reflect credit on the workers, but the majority of the editors find the creatures thus made very early turn on them and, if possible, be tray them on their interests on the first occasion. The more fellows an editor has out whose clay he ha3 helped to put up, the more certain he is of enemies and of men ready to assume the role of Judas without even the excuse of the thirty pieces. Editors are for work and to tulk tiffy not to sit with the elect in the Sanhedrim." THE 1IAYTI REBELLION. The fact that Ilypolite went under very quickly after the 4th of MaJch and that Collector 3Iagone is still holding a Tessel belonging to the Legitime govern ment loaded with arms for Ilayli, indicate pretty cieariy that Mr. Byard was en couraging the insurrection on that island which accounts for his wonderful prompt ness and energy in skzing the American Tessel that tried to run Legitime's block ade, in order to carry arms and trooj s for the insergent army. It is to be hoped tae friendly relations between the United States and Ilajti will be restored now that the republicans are in power in Washington. The new adninistratian has no prejudice to grati fy in the destruction of the Haytian gov ernment and establish the rule of anarchy and brigandage there simply because it ii a colored man's country. Lincoln JournaJ. PRESIDENT HARRISON. The representative of the pridciple of Protection to American industry has en tered upon the duties of his office as President amid the hearty good wishes and hopes for the success of his Adminis tration of the great mass of his fellow citizens. Even within the short time which has elapsed since his election many, yery many, of those who have opposed him have become convinced that the i Jes of which he is now the official exponent are thosa under whose influence the progress and prosperity of the Republic can best be assured, its honor best maintained, sad its interests best advanced. The views and sentiments expressed in his inaugural address are worthy of the m in, the office, and the occasion. They show thst the President possesses a clear knowledge of the responsibilities of his position, and fully understands the re quirmcuts of the country. His utterances give assurance to all that during his term of office the afiairs of the nation will be conducted in such manner as will reflect credit upon American statesmanship and rebound to the benefit of the whole people Aided by the wise counsels and hearty support of the great and generous patriot and statesman to whom he his confided the control of the State Department and his worthy colleagues in the Cabinet, President Ilar-Uon will without doubt avail himself of opportunities whenever presented to carry out the wise and patri otic policy indicated in his address, in crease the respect entertained for us by foreign powers, and promote the welfare of our citizens of every section and ele ment.

"COMANCHE JACK'S" RECORD. fa Ills Lifetime He Has Shot Tlilrty-one .Men and II piped Hans Seventeen. In this western city on the streets and in the hotel lobbies every day one meets with many of the most noted western characters of the day. Bret Ilai to would hero find many subjects for wild western history that would throw some of his previous creations of (iction into the shade. Ihe Indian territory is near by, where there is emn'oved a lanre number of brave and hardy" men as deputy United States marshals wno appear periodically m the largest city most convenient to tlicir wortttng- place, so inai v lcuiui is often called upon to entertain visi tors of almost as much notoriety as "Dilly the kid or Jesse James. Chief among this number is Deputy United States Marshal Jack Stillwell, now stationed at Fort Keno, I. T. I.-if!.- or rather Comanche Jack, as lu; i iamiiiarjy known, is a handsome lo'.:::iiLr chap, with a Jiii"rhhi"r blue eve, curly hair slightly tinged with gVav, lor this noted borderinan is just So Years of age, about 5 feet 10 or 11 inches in height, and of massive build, lie is also the acknowledged crack pistol shot of the west, and even in tlicdavsof that Kansas cyclone known as "Wild LnlJ," who never missed a shot. Jack Stillwell ranked Jiigh. TJie number of men killed by Jack is variously estimated at from twenty live to tlnrty-om-, and it is known that in addition he has aided in send ing seventeen other men over the val ley of death by means of the hang mai.i pfjofe. Even in this country, where "kiiieio" pro to be met with every day, "Comanche Jack" Stillwell is a curiosity, and is pointed out to Grangers with a strange mixture of awe and pride By this ft must not be understood tiiat this gallant depufy United States marshal is a tlesieradd who goes about glorying iu his bloody work. On the contrary, he is rather retiring in his disposition and only when he has been drinking boasts of his deeds. W hen desperate work is to be done or a bad desperado is to be taken Stillwell is always the man who is detailed to accopipiish jt. The territory despera does and cut throats oil know and fear the intrepid oflicer, and are aware of the fact that if he goes after them he will get them, dead or alive. Many arelJio traps that have been laid to kill him, bui he is as cunning as ho is brave, and has always niauagcd to evr.Uo the snares that would have cau .id the death of a less accomplished plainsman. Brought up as he was among the Comanche Indians, Jack has never exercised the right of franchise, and at the age of 50 has never cast a vote, lie speaks the Comanche and several otlK r Indian languages as well as the Indians do themselves, nd during the sitting of the Uuitecj States court in this city it is always an amusing sight to s: -o "the Indians, dressed in their primitive way, followiug the great "White Chief," as they call Jack, about the streets. He calls them his "monagcrie" and says they are a lot of dirty, thieving wretches for the moht part, as well as tho most accom piiohed liars in the world. Wichita (Kan.) Cor. St. Louis Post-Dispatch. Pile AVliijieU tlio IH;ihcr. A small crowd of men and women. juf.L out from the theatres, witnessed an odd street light on Washington street, near the Adams house, on Sat urday night As usual there was a crowd of loungers, who are to bo seen in that locality at all hours of the day and night. They were leering atpass erahy in their usual fashion, when n gent Ionian with two ladies mado his "ppearonee. Uno of the women was separated from her companions by an accident, and a would be masher ap proached her with his face wreathed in f;::iles. lie was clad in a long yel low ulster, and wore a derby hat. As ho lifted his hat And was about to ac cost her, she wheeled around like a flash and hit him a smart slap on his face, with tho words: What do you mean by insulting me, f ir?"' She didn't stop there, either, for as the man rushed upon her and attempted to strike her iu a most cow ardly manner, she took a true pugi listic attitude, and his blow glanced harmlessly otf. Before anybody could interfere, she had thrown hep muff to the sidewalk and was deli vering blows thick and fast upon her antagonist, who. nlthouirh he tried to strike back, could do little. A powerful blow with her right hand finally laid the young ma:i on the sidewalk amid tho t-heers i of tho crowd. Ilo picked himself up and wai::cu oir at n rapm raie, wuuo tho young woman joined her compan ionn. ::ot ut all the worse for her ad veat::rc seemingly. Boston Cor. 'cw York Tribunew . . - WHAT 13 LOVET A Pa itonat IotM DeaeMita ra m Km Myftterlmis Subject. Love is tho essence f every exist ing thine; tho root of life I the recom- jiense for death. It is the all creative spark, tho vita! force of the universe. There is power to achieve in the mere utterance of the word love. 1 think God said: "I lovo the earth," and lo! the earth sprang1 into being. Love is the nat ural element of all things. The illim itable oceans of space are composed of the waters of Love. Whoever loves most widely and warmly is most in harmony with the universe. Love is the key to success, lo love your work is to excel in it. lo love observ uijrly and nobly any worthy object or aim is to eventually obtain and at tain it. Lovo is at once an ecstasy and an agony, it is the bridge whereon we are compelled to walk continually to and fro, between heaven and hell, but ever back to heaven. When the bridge breaks or its tim bers rot away, then are we precipitated into hell, and unable to find tho door to heaven again; for the only way to go is over tho bridgo of Love. He who loves greatly hates feebly. All kfcrong emotions proceed from and do rive tacir strength from Lovo. If Love uses his own force there is nothing loft for Hate. It is only when Love grows indolent and sleeps that Hate is enabled to steal his garments of strength and sally forth to do eviL But even then he has not his elder and divine brother's power; for he was sired by man, and Love was fa thered by God. God espoused nothing and said, " love," and Love was born to rule the universe. Afterward nothing con ceived and bore by man a misshapen creature, called Ilate; but at one glance from tho divino eyes of his nobly born brother ho falls vanquish ed at the feet of Love. To lovo is to become wise with the wisdom of ages, yet to become as a little child in humility and subjec tion. To love enables us to lead an army into tho jaws of death, and to servo as a menial at the feet of one so loved To lovo is to know happiness but not contentment, rapturo but not peace, exhilaration but not satisfac tion; for contentment means inertia, peace means stagnation, and satisfac tion means satiety, and these three can- uot exist where love is. Lovoandaction are co-existent, and there is no reposo where love is, but there is, rest -pven in its restlessness, ecstasy in its mis- nnw' )tAra in if a aqk sir in if a cAKimttr v J tivu in a a vcw y J J m " jw i iuii and sweet in its bitter. Ella Wheeler Wilcox in Once a Week. Pst'a Prompt Reply. Echo was a mountain nymph in the old poetic days, but modern realism has changed her into an Irishman. At least the guests of a Georgia colonel must have concluded so. Col. Ogee chee has a very remarkable echo on his place a few miles from this city; one, in fact, which would clearly re peat whole sentences. TUo gentlemen to whom this asser tion was made' were interested, but in credulous, and arranged to accompany Col. Ogeechee home the next after noon to test the wonderful echo. The colonel found, on getting home, that in the beat pf tho dispussion he had claimed more than the facts justified. Determined not to be beatenj pe called his Iris!) laborer. "Pat," says he, "some gentlemen are coming nome with mo to-morrow afternoon to hear the echo. Now, I want you to go across the river before time for me to arrive, so you can an swer back whatever wo may call out." "You mane foe me tq play ikfeer, sorr?" asked Pat, grinning. "That's it exactly," said the colonel. ".Now do you thoroughly understand that you are to answer back exactly what wo say?" "Oh, yis, sorr; ye candepind on me entoirely." JNext afternoon the colonel took his friends to tho river bank, and all were ready for the experiment. Making a speaking trumpet of his hands, the colonel roared : "Are you there?" Back came the echo with startling distinctness: "Yis, sorr; OVe been here since four av the clock." Savannah N ews. A Costly Wager. m At the New York assizes, in March, 1812. a trial came on in which Rev. B. Gilbert was plaintiff and Sir Mark Sykcs, baronet, defendant. It ap peared that the baronet, at his own ta ble during a dinner party, iri the course of a conversation resDectincr the hazard to which the life of Bona parte was exposed, had offered, upon the receipt of 100 guineas, to pay 1 guinea a day as long as he (Bonaparte) should remain aliye. Mr. (iilbert sud denly took up the offer; but, finding that the sense of the company was against making a serious matter of a bet proposed at a moment of convivi ality, he said: "If you will submit, Sir Mark, to ask it as a favor, you may be off." This the baronet refused to Jo.

At length he de clined further payment, and this ac tion was for recovery of tho sum still duo upon the contract. Chambers' Journal. A Buay Clergyman.
