Admiral Porter's Account of the Don.
crM'fl Conduct oftlio SICRC.
The follow ing oxtrnctia from n work
now nearly ready for the press entitled !
' 'Anecdotes ami Ilomimscences of the
Civil War , " by Admiral Porter :
In the history of the world's sieges
nothing will ho found nhcro moro patience -
tionco was dtncloppd , moro unduranco
under privations or moro courage shown
than by the Union forces at the aicgo of
Vicksburg , \\hilo on the part of the besieged -
sieged it was marked by their great fertil
ity of resources in checking almost every
movement of ours nnd for the long months
of suffering and hardship * they under
went.
It belongs of right to General Grant to
toll the story of that event , for in no case
during the war did ho so clearly show his
title to bo called a great general , nor did
ho elsewhere so fully exhibit all the
qualities which pro\ed him to bo a great
soldier.
If General Grant had never performed
any other military not daring the war ,
the capture of Vicksburg nlone , with all
the circumstances attending the siege ,
would have entitled him to the highest
renown. Ho had an enemy to deal with
of twice his force , and protected by do *
fences never surpassed In the art of war.
I saw , myaolf , the great strongholds nt
Sevastopol of the Malakofi tower and the
Rodan , the day after they wora taken by
a combined army of 120,000 men ; and
these strongholds , which have become
famous In ballad and ttory , never In any
way compared with the defences of
Vicksburg , which looked as If a thousand
Titans had been pnt to work to make
theao heights unassailable.
I am told that there wore fifty-six
miles of intronchmonts thrown up , ono
within the other.
The hills above , with their granite
rocka standing in defiance , wore enough
to deter a fee without having intrench *
monts bristling with cannon and mannad
by the hardiest troops in the confederacy.
After It was all over and General Grant
could BOO the conquered city lying at
his feet ho could well afford to laugh at
his vllo traducers ttho were doing all
they could to hamper him by sending
telegrams to the seat of government
questioning his fitnets for so Important n
command.
If those who lent themselves to such
things could bo followed through the
war It would bo found that they never
made a mark , put them where you would ;
nor did they achieve any good for the
government.
That was a happy Fourth of July when
the confederate flag came down at Vicksburg -
burg and the stars and stripes wont up in
Its place , while Meadn's force at Gettys
burg was driving Loo's army back to
Richmond tattered and torn.
That day so glorious in the annals pi
our history lost nothing by the two bril
liant events which were added to oui
fame and made It still moro dear in the
heart of every true American.
When the American flag wai hoisted
on the ramparts of Vlckabnrg my ihg.
ship and every vessel of the fleet steamed
up or down to the levee before the city ,
Wo discerned a dust in the distance ,
and in a few moments General Grant , at
the head of nearly all his general , with
their staffs , rode np to the gangway and ,
dismounting , came on board. That was
a happy meeting. A great handshaking
and general congratulation.
I opened all my wlno lockers , which
contained only Oatawba on this occasion.
It disappeared down the parched throats
which had tasted nothing for some tlmo
but bad water. Yet It ezhllerated the
crowd as weak wino never did before.
There was ono man there who pre
served the same quiet demeanor ho al
ways bore , whether in adversity or vic
tory , and that was General Grant.
No one to see him sitting therp will
that calm exterior amid all the jollity ,
and without any staff , would ever have
taken him for the great general who had
accomplished ono of the most stupond
ons military feats on record.
There was a quiet satisfaction in hii
face that could not bo concealed , but hi
behaved on that occasion as if nothing o
importance had occurred.
General Grant was the only ono In tha
assemblage who did not touch the slmpl
wino offered him ; ho > contented hlmao !
with acigor ; and let mo say hero tha
this was his habit during all the time h
commanded before Vicksburg , also whll
ho commanded before Richmond , thoug
the same detractors Trho made false rer.
rosentatlons of him in military matter
before Vlckabnrg misrepresented him ala
In the matters above alluded to.
The Inauguration Ball Fanil.
Special dispatch to the Globe-Democrat.
WASHINGTON , D. 0. , January 19. Th
Washington papers are publishing Ion
lis's ' of subscribers to the inauguratioi
fund. On their face tlicso lists spcal
\\cll for the patriotism and public spiri
of citizens of the capital. Looked at ii
the light of haul facts thcso publication
are found to bo conveyances of a gooc
deal of advertising at very cheap rates
When it comes to something the govern
ment is concerned in thcso thrifty Wash
ington people never get to the small cm
of the trade. They are now engaged it
contributing to the inauguration fund , bu
that & out-and-out bu
not an - - gift ,
rather a guarantee fund. Jf a fire 01
cyclone should sweep avay the pcnsioi
building just previous to inauguration daj
then these subscribers npuld have t <
enter up their respective sums t <
profit and loss. Just as sure , however , a
the inauguration ba'l ' is given in accord
ance with the programme , they will ro-
ccivo credit for public spirit ; will havi
their fun , will oxperienca the manifoU
advantagesto bo derived from the presenci
of great throngs of monoy-spondera , niu
will got most , if not all , their money bad
in a dividend. The price of tickets ha
been fixed at $5. Basing calculations 01
previous o\ents of this cliaracter. th
committee count on 12,000 patrons. Thi
means § 00,000 for admission alono. Tlia
will pay all the expenses which the com
mittco incurs for the day's and the night'
celebration , Tour yeara ago , in sottliii ]
tip after inauguration day , the manager
found themsehesable to return all th
money tliat had been subscribed as ;
guarantee. There is no reason to doub
but that a similarly good shoving will b
made this year. Perhaps this w ill explaii
the rcadiiuss with which the members c
the committee , to start the fund , assess
thcmsclvesSlOO qpicce. There is another Lii
terestlng phase to this subscription bus
ness. The democrats of Washlngto
have already defined their position unde
the principle , "to the victors belong th
polls. " Numerous associations an
clubs , many of which were never hear
of previous to last November , have r <
solved that it should be the policy of th
Incoming administration to appoint to ti
district offices only citizens of the dli
trict. In the list of bit ; subscribers 1
the fund .which appears In to-day's papei
are to be found fire local candidates f (
the office of register of wills , worth aboi
$0,000 ft year ; seven for register of deeds ,
which pnjs $9,000 annually ; nlno for dis
trict commissioner , and four for postmas
ter of Washington. , *
Superintendent Pratt , of the Indian
Industrial school at Carlisle , proposed to
the Inauguration committee to bring 200
young Indian mon and largo boys and
their Indian band , to march In lino.
"This can bo done , " Capt. Protto says ,
"without cost to the committee , as the
transportation wonld bo free and wo
could take our food with us , and sloop In
the halls of the interior department. It
seems to mo the party would bo a note
worthy feature of the parade. "

When yon hire a servant In Mexico i
Is expected that his or her entire famll
will reside with you. The husband ma ;
bo a shoemaker , or a hackrnnn , or a BE
loon keeper , but when his day's dnty i
done ho goes to the house where his wlf
Is living , sleeps there and takes bin meal
at your table ; and the same rnlo appllo
to children. Yon may hire a chamber
maid , and board hpr husband and elovoi
children. There is no alternative ; n
evasion of the customs of the country
This system Is not BO expensive as i
seems , however , for a whole family wll
sloop In a single room , and they don'
need much but corn bread and beans ti
oat. The peons , as all Mexican Indian
are called , make excellent servants. The ;
are respectful , obedient , perfect ! ;
honest , neat and obey Instructions Im
plicitly. Like the Chinese , they learnb ;
Imitation and seldom need mora than om
lessen , doing the same thing over anc
over In the same way until they are tolc
to stop. The Mexican stapo coach al
ways has two drivers ono to hold thi
reins and the other to do the whipping ,
The latter carries a bag of stones to thro ?
at the loaders.

"I find you guilty of robbery , and wll
glvo you two years In the state prison , '
aald the austere judge to the prisoner
who was surrounded by a galaxy of brll
liant lawyers. "Wow , look-a-here
Judge , " replied the prisoner , with a lee !
at his array of counsel , "ain't you prott ;

U'ho Jackpot GauRbt Fire.
Buffalo Express ,
A pleasant little game of drawpoke
furnished amusement to a party of con
genial bachelor uouls the other night
Tha banker kept the money again-
which chips had been Issued in a clga
box , which stood on the floor convenlon
to his roach. The circulation had bee
expanded to some $50 or SCO , and thi
amount In bills was In the box. t
splendid jackpot had just been dispose
when somebody remarked a smell c
bumlng. "Great Cimarl" cried one c
the playera , "the monoy'B on fire ! " An
so It was. A lighted match bad bee
carelessly dropped Into the cigar bo :
and our erstwhile jovial party spent tl
rest of tha plght ruefully In trying I
piece the charred fragments together.
The Oov. boy as Ho Is ,
Bill tf yo in I'uck ,
So much amusing talk h being made
recently anent the blood-bedraggled cow
boy of the wild west that I rise'M ono man
to say a few things , not in a dictatorial
style , but regarding this so-called or so
ciieemed dry land pirate , who , mounted
on a cow-pony and under the black flag ,
sails out acrots the green surga of the
plains to scatter the rocky shore of time
with his fellow-man.
A great many people wonder where tha
cowboy , with his abnormal thurst for
blood originated. Where did this young
Jcsso James , with his gory record and
his dauntless eye como from ? Was ho
born in a buffalo wallow at the foot of
some rock-ribbed mountain , or did ho
first breathe the thin air along the brink
of an alkali pond , whcro the horned toad
and the centipede sane him to sleep and
the tarantula tickled him under the chin
with its hairy legs ?
_ Careful research and cold , hard statis
tics show that 'ho cowboy , as a general
tbinr , was born in an unostentatious
manner on the farm. I hate to tit down
n a beautiful romance and cqnash the
iroath out of a romantic dream ; but the
pwboy who gets too much moist damna *
ion In his oystom , and rides on a gallop
ip and down Main street , shooting out
ho lights of the beautiful billiard pal-
ices , wonld bo just as happy if a mouse
an np his pantaloon log as you would
ontlo reader.
TUB IILOOD BEDIUaCJLEP COWBOY.
Ono night , while I had rooms In the
ualnoaa part of a territorial city , in the
ilocky mountain cattle country , I was
iwakonod at about 1 , o'clock a. m. , by
.ho most blood.curdling cry of "murder"
' over hoard. It was murder with a big
M. " Across the atroot , In the bright
ight of a restaurant , a do/.on cowboys
with broad sombreros and flashing silver
' > rald. huge leather chaporajas , Mexican
purs and orange silk nook-ties , with
flashing revolvers were standing. It
oomod that a big rod-faced Capt. Kidd
if the band , with his akin full of valley
tan , had marched into an Ico-croara re-
iort with a aolf-cocker in his hand , ana
irderod the vanilla coolness for the gang.
There being a dozen young folks at the
place , mostly male and female , from a
neighboring hop , Indulging in cream ,
the proprietor , a meek Norwegian with
thin whlto hair , doomed It rndo and
outre to do so. Ho said something to
that effect , whereat the other eleven mon
of alcoholic courage lot off a yell that
froze the cream Into a solid glacier , and
shook two kerosene lamps out of their
sockets In the chandeliers.
This annoyed the Ice cream agricul
turist , and ho took the old axo-handlo
that ho used to jam the ice down around
the freezer with , and pooled a largo area
of scalp off the leader's dome of thought ,
and It hung down over his eyes , so that
ho could not BOO to shoot with any de
gree of certainty.
THE IDE CIIEA1I AGniCUMURlST WITH THE
AXE HANDLE.
After he had yelled "murder 1" thren
or four times , ho foil under an ice cream
table and the mild eyed Scandinavian
broke a silver plated castor over the or
gan of self-esteem , and poured rod pep-
pec and Bolt and vinegar and Halford
sauce and other relishes on the place
whore the scalp WAS loose.
This revived the brave but murderous
cow-gentleman , and he bogged that ho
might be allowed to go away.
The gentle Y. M. 0. A. superinten
dent of the ton-stamp Ice cream freezers
then took the revolvers away from the
bold buccaneer and kicked him out
through a show cane.
All cow-boys are not sanguinary ; but
out of twenty you [ will generally find ono
who is bravo when he has his revolvers
with him ; but when he forgot and loft
his shooters at homo on the piano , the
most tropical violet-eyed dude can climb
him with the butt end of a sunflower ,
and beat his brains out and scatter them
all over that school district.
In the wild unfettered west , beware of
the man who never carries arms , never
gets drunk and always minds his own
business. Ho don't go around shooting
ont the gas or Intimidating a Klndergar
ten school ; but when a brave frontiers
man , with a revolver In each boot and <
bowie knife down the bach of his nock
Insults a modest young lady and needs ti
bo thrown through a plate glass wlndov
and then walked over by the pcpnlace
call In the silent man who dares to woai
a clean shirt and human clothes.
Throw Your Dinner Aivoyi
Perhaps such advice may seem like ;
suggestion of poor economy. But if you
digestive apparatus is out of order yoi
might as well throw your dinner in th <
street as to cat it , for it w ill do you 111
good. To enjoy a square meal , put you
stomach in good order and tone up none
and muscles by the HBO of Brown's Iroi
Bitters. Mr. M. L. Drake , Do Land
Florida , says , "Brown's Iron Bitters wil
euro indigestion when physicians fail. "
