EXPLANATORY.
Tlio newspaper from which tlio sulijoineil
nrticlcs nro copied Is tho Identical A'cio York
Times now published in the city of NewYorlc
under tlmt name nnd title. Tlio Sninuel J
Tildcn rercrrcd to In tho following extracts
is tho Samuel J, Tildcn who is tho Demo
cratlo candidate for President. Thitcxpln
nation is deemed essential, becailio without
,it tlio readers of the Times would fail to rcc
ognizo in the present "great apostle of sham
reform" the very Samuel J. Tilden who but
four yenra ago was called in tho Timet "an
honest and high-toned Democrat," and "a
gallant, conscientious nnd efficient foo to
corruption." And lest, it might be presum
icd, as tho only raticmal solution to a trans!-
'. f ., ... i1.," rrt. t
lion so phenomenal, mat mo Jimcs uas ue
,como tho property cither of tho lato Canal
living, or of William M. Tweed, or of Peter
11. Sweeny, or of OcOrgo O. Ilarnard, the im
peached and disfranchised Judge ono and
.'all tho immortal enemies of Mr. Tilden, not
ittout cause it is but proper to state, in
credible though tho assertion' may appear,
that tho persons' who at present own and
control tho New York 7iinr nro Jho same
(parties who owned and controlled it at tho
various times when tho articles that follow
wcro published. After perusing theso pages
land comparing tho panegyrics that ihd jf'iwies
sung so loudly and-persistently four years
ago, with tie harsh diatribes with which its
columns are at present.tccming, the question
that will naturally sugj.o t .tsolf to tho read
er is, "Did the Times speak falsely four years
ago, or docs it speak falsely now?"
Tho position assumed by tho 7Vigj to
ward Jlr. Tilden during the present cam
paign is not less absurd thau if simultane
ously with Its denunciatory articloi ngaintt
Jlr. Tilden it wero lo publish leading edi
torials lauding to tlio skies tho honesty and
'integrity of William 31. Tweed or Peter P,
Sweeny. Tho limes is as consistent in its
attacks on Mr. Tilden as it would bo in
praising tho thieves in tho lato Tammany
Iting.
Tho following extracts from tho Times,
published in that journal at a period when
Mr. Tilden was a privato citizen ; whon there
existed not even tho remotest probability of
his holding any public oflice whatever; when
if any person had prophesied that Mr. Til
den was destined to bo tho Governor of Now
York and tho Democratic candidate for
President of tho United States, ho would
have been pronounced an idiot ; anu when
no motive nor iuccutivp was offered to dis
tort tho .facts, or prejudice honest convic
tious these extracts, published at such a
time and under those conditions, in a leading
Republican newspaper, are, beyond all ques
tion, entitled to tho most implicit belief by
all fair-minded men.

Indian Itoniancc
A Tiiun HToity or
SPOTTED TAII
nut.
'fl DAl'dll-
A gentleman writing from Tort Iinramic,
Wyoming Territory, tells tho following ro
mantic story about tho daughter of Spotted
Tall, the famous Sioux chief, which wo do
not rcmembor having seen in print. Ho
,says :
Twenty yards from tho new hospital, on
the hill overlooking Tort Laramie, aro two
Indian graves i. c., cofllns ralsctl fifteen
feet from tho ground', on stout pole. Ono
,of theso coffins contained tho bones of a
young daughter of Spotted Tall, tho famous
chief of the Sioux tribe, who died in 1701.
' Tho tribe of Spotted Tail was at that time
'permanently located near this fort, and the
chief and his family wcro treated with much
consideration by tho olliccrs volunteers.
Tho yotliig squaw was one ol tho fairest of
tho dusky maidens of her tribe, Sho was
adored by her old father, and her hand
sought by many or tho warriors. Unfortu
nately for her, tho charms or her dusky face
and tiguro wcro not passed unnoticed by tho
p.ilo faces, and a certain gay captain found
opportunity to whisper pleasant nonsense in
her cars. Moon-light strolls and wayside
meetings wero soon in order, and tho llower
of the Sioux began lo sigh for tho comnanv
of tho gallant pale face. She made known
her story of love to her father, and ho im
mediately waited upon tho vounrr officor.and
demanded his hand in marriage to his
daughter. Tho captain's name was not
Smith, however, nnd ho was seemingly ig
norant of tho precedent of Pocahontas, for
he positively declined the honor.
I'he old chieftain, moro in sorrow than In
anger, returned with tho crushing news to
his daughter. It wa-t a burning sun to tho
"Fair Tlowcr" or tho Sioux. Sho dronned
aud began to wither, and her father, an a
last resort, sent her to visit some relatives
whose hunting grounds wcro on the Father
of Waters, five hundred miles away. Her's
was a disease, however, which chance 'of
scone and air did not affect, and slid had
been gone but a short time when a mounted
messenger came to her father in breathless
hasto to summon him to the wigwam of
doath... Mounting his swiftest pony, ho
galloped madly over tho plains, and" them
only reached his daughter's side in time to
recoivo her dying request that sho should bo,
burled at Fort Laramie. '
His promise was kept, and tho broken
hearted girl was raised to tho last resting
placo amid ono of tho grandest displays
over witnessed on tho plains; soldiers and
Indians alike participated, aud twenty
Indian ponies wero killed in her honor. Tho
commanding officer of tho fort gavo his
solemn promiso to tho old chief that tho box
containing his daughter's body should never
lie disturbed; this promise had been sacrcdlv
observed until two months since, when a
meddling army surgeon, just beforo starting
ou- an expedition with General Crook,
emptied tho colliu of its sacred contents,
gave the bones to a fcubordin.ite.aud ordered
him to expose them to tho sun eccasionallv
during tho summer, to bleach them, and un-
on his return ho would refresh his anatomy
wiin tno skeleton.
Imagine the feeling.of this sub ono dav
not long since, upon being confronted bv
nnother surgeon, and the query, tremulously
,put, if ho tlid not havo the hones of Spotted
iiuiis daughter in his pos-scssion. He ans
wered affirmatively, and was furthcrquestion
ed, about tho accompanying bedding, wrap
pings, ttinkels, etc. This had all been
burned, except two rings and bracelets, and
Spotted Tail bud just arrived for tho pur
i' icinuniij; mo remains to Ills own
agency. It was feared that if tho desecration
of tho grave became known to him it woul
cause him to abandon his peaceful attitudu
and join his brethren on tho war path.
Accordingly at dead of night tho box wni
replaced, the bones deposited therein, sue)
bedding, trinkets, etc., as could be mustered
nceoinpiitiied' them, and fortunately nexU
morning .Spotted Tall left for Cheyenne, to
bo gono live days. During his absence, to
cover the thing, a handsome coflin was mado
the boiies placed therein, all removed to tho
hospital, as if to save Iroublo to the chief
On his return ho visited tlio hospital, in
sjieetod tlio remains closely, expressed hiin-
seil salislied, and started with his precious
bmden for the Spotted Tall reservation.
An Anecdote of Soutas,
Jen tho celebrated sitiger Henrietto
Sonjng began her musical career sho was

sfructing its pathway as it would raco over

fame and fortune. Nevertheless her debut in
Vicuna was. most brilliant, spito of tho euor-
mqus opposition that greeted her, yet tho en
cournging roar of tlio lions could not entire

uuu oi, tue most venomous oi tncao was.
Iho falling favorite of tho public, but still
a very powerful rival, Amelia Stcinlnger,,
vylioso vocal octavo bad been considerably"
broken and reduced by dissipation, hut shu
counted scores of admirers who wcro ready!
to deiend. her position by every means, fair
fir, foul, iu their power, and eventually sue'
pceded in driving the dangerous jjyal pf
weir weiniuger.lrom the Held.
Chagrined, j( not humiliated, Sontag left
Vienna barborlpg anything "t friendly
leciing toward Amelia .btulninger. Ono
J'lornipg, some yearn, later, while. sho was, i;i'
WQgipry oi iior, trlumpu singing' wjtb. tlje!
great, louqr, Jagcr, and tho iioycr-to-be-for-
gotten buffo Spitwlor, at (he Koyal Thea
tre, J.erun, when ruling aipug ono of the
inaiiLjjtrecta of Heilin sho was attracted by
hearing an Austriau song, familiar from'
childhood nnd homo, sung on the street cor-.
ner by a little girl about six vcars old. who
led ly tho hand a forlorn-looking Mind
woman. It was a sad and touching air, aud
the happy canlatrlco immediately ordered
her coupa to. be halted, calling tlio little sine-
er to her und said ;
"What is your iiamo, tny weo Austrian
echofj
"Nauuie," tho child replied, with a stronir
Vienna accent,
1876.
"And who Is tho woman' with you?"
"My poor blind mother, lady."
"And what is her namo?"
"Amelia Stolnlngcr," lady.
"Amelia Stcinlnger, I" exclaimed Sontag
In great surprise.
"Yes, lady ; my mother was a great singer
in Vienna longngo, but sho lost her voice,
and ;thon sho wept so much that tho light
went out of her eyes j then our friends turned
away from ns, and when that was also gone
wo wero obliged to beg our way or die of
hunger.
Tears swelled down from tho kind nnd
generous heart of tho fnrtunnto woman ns
sho listened lo tho pathetic story of tho lit
tle one tears of genuine sympathy.. She
turned tu the gallant gentlemen who cath-
cred Jabout her liko satelites around Jtheir
stnr.
"Gentlemen," said she, tho pearling drops
of heart dew glistening in her beautiful eves,
"permit inn hero on this public placo to take
up a collection for an unhappy sister from
whom God has seen lit to tako his greatest
gift tho gia of sight. Hero is my purso ;
do not allow it to remain companionlesj in
the hands of this poor child."
In nn instant tho gold nnd silver coin
rained upon tho overjoyed llttlo girl, who
imagined an angel had como to relieve her
mother from poverty and care.
"Now tell nic, Nannie, whero do you
live r"
Tho child gave tho address.
"Uivoyour mother my love, and tell her
that her old friend Henrietta Sontag will
do herself tho pleasure of hunting her up
this afternoon nnd having a littlo chat with
her."
Crying for joy tho child ran to her mother
with her good luck, aud repeated Sontag's
words, but sho could not understand tho
impetuous burst of tears that fell from the
blind eyes, to bo followed by remorseful
sobbing of her who once drove this benefac
tress from her native city with hisses.
Sontag camo according to promise, bring
ing a skillful occulist, who nfler an exami
nation shook his grey head. Ho had no ro
lier for the black cataract that had up to
that timo obstinately resisted skill.
With delicate consideration tho conversa
tion was led from tho subject that would re
call those days iu Vienna. Willi heartfelt
expressions ot good will Sontag left her
former enemy and rival. Tho following
week a rousing benefit for n distressed artist
was given, Sontag's Iphiyenic filling tho
house,andalso the purse of the blind woman.
Until her death Henrictta Sontag cared for
her, then her daughter becamo her graceful
protege, and received a liberal education
that fitted her for an independent future.
The slumbering nightingale left many
mourning hearts, but none who loved her
better or moro gratefully thau this girl.

Where Tltey Left Him.
The other'morning, as tho conductor of a
train going west from Detroit was passing
arouud after tickets, ho came to a. man who
waved him away with a very importaut air,
at the same time remarking,
"Pass on, sir, pass on."
"I want your ticket," replied tho conduc
tor, "Ticket, you hireling of anarchy I" shout
ed tho man, pulling out his cheeks. "Sir,
I own this road. I bought it justbeloro leavi
ing Detroit, nnd while I would liko to re

uyuii u you navo a uozeu children to Blip
port." "I must havo your ticket or your money,"
said tho official.
"Consider yourself discharged I" roared
tho man.
Ho was left on tho track between two sta
tions. He sat down on n log'to pin his pa
per collar on, and his hist words as tho train
moved off, wero:
"Gentlemen, thin outrage will mnko this
country shudder from .Maine to Texas."
Heading's Poetic Lawyer.
As wo plod along tho tinspriukied high
way or life, it is refreshing to find, hero and
there, among the dry bundles of utility an
unextinguished apart ofpvctiu fire, Such
is tho case as, wandering along Court streetj
we pass tho ollieo of a disciple of Illackstotu',
from whoso fervid soul nil tlio dry details
and unpoetlc subtleties of the law havo not
succeeded iu driving tho muse, as is evi

As n writer of Ihe English language
Shakespeare had to create, not' to reform ;
ho found it like n newly mado musical in
strument, harsh, uneven in tone, unwieldy
to use he brought out all its scarccly-sus-i
pectcd beauties, gave it pliancy, true variety
continued in truo unity ; lu tho highest
sense of the word he made it what it now is,
perfect nnd peerless. If reformation had
been needed, ho might havo wrought it
we cannot say ; tho task he had to accom
plish was not that but a greater., And po
litical rctorm was entirely out of his way,
Iu tho "Tempest" (act 2, scene i 1) ho un
mercifully ridicules tho Utopian ideas even
then creeping in tho finances .of a com
monwealth where thero should bo no ine
quality, no poverty and riches, no king, no,
war, "no use," as he ironically adds, "of
metal, corn, or wine, or oil; no occupation
all men idle, all I" Ho in no way felt the
degradation of a pcoplo ruled by despots, so'
long as thoso despots were not .wicked or
oppressive though ho seems to havo.relt
their insecurity. Accustomed to tho sway
or Klizabeth, ho probably overrated much,
tho influence of a' king's personal character;
which great as no doubt With tho Plan
tagenets it was, can hardly have preponder
ated so enormously over all other influJ
ences as he represents in Kichard II., Hen
ry V., Henry VI., He bIiows us there the.ua
lion's fate entirely dependent on the good
ness or badness, strength or weakness of iti
monarch and apparently takes it for gran
ted as tho natural stato of things, without
surprise or Borrow, With this feollng.toi
ward kings, it is perhaps natural that, .the
period of history ho has chosen to illustrate
aro not those of great ovents, but ofinpti
nrchs individually interesting.. Grand his-;
torical subjects uch as the struggle of some
oppressed country against u foreign foe do
not seem to have attracted him ; partly, per
haps because ho. was, nbovo all other, thingsj
intensely n dramatist, and felt that.not prin
ciptas, but men, aro most dramatic, A na
tion's strugglo for liberty cau hardly be
shown ou tho stage as can. one man's strug

What Mark Twain Phesciiided ronTiiE
Infliction.
When Mark Twain, In 18C7, resigned hli
c)orkshp to the Utittetl States Sehato Com
mittee, on Cqnchology, H wa partly caused
by his tender, of the following advico con
cerning the treatment of Ip4wn? pft.be Nesl
"I next went to. the Secretary of War, who
was not Inclindcd to ,soe mo at all until, he
learned I was connected "with the govern
ment. If I had not been on Important bus
iness,,! supposo I would hav,o not got in. I
asked for a light (lie was smoking at (ho
lime), nnd thou I told him I had no fault lo
find with his defending the parole stipula
tions of General Leo and his comrades, in
arms, hut that 1 could not, approve of bU
method of fighting with the Indians on the
Plains. I said ho fought .scattering. Ho
ought to get them moro together get them
together in boiiio convenient place, where ho
should havo provision, enough, fqr both par
tics, and then havo a general massacre, .1
said there was nothing so convincing to tho
Indians as a general massacre. If ho could
not approve of the massacre, I said the next
surest thing for an Indian was soap and ed
ucation. Soap and education are not so
sudden as a massacre, but they aro moro
deadly in tho long run ; because n half-massacred
Indian may recover, but if you etjupato
him and wash him it is bound to finish him
somo timo or other. It undermines Ms con
stitution ; it strikes at tho foundation of his
being. "Sir," I said, ''tho time has. como
when blood-curdling cruelty has become
unnecessary. Inflict soap nnd a spelling
book on every Indian that ravages tho
Plains, and let himdlo?"
Give Tiinst Money. I think children
should have money of their own from the
timo they understand its value. There is
no error more fatal .than imagining that
Uiinchiug a youth in his pocket money will
teach him Irugality. un tho contrary, it
will occasion his running into extravagance
with so much more eagerness when he comes
to have money in his own hands,; as pinching
him in his diet will make his appetite, only
tho. more rapacious. If you put intp tho hands
of your child moro money than is suitable to
his age and discretiou, you must expect, to
find that he has thrown it away upon what
Is not only idlo but hurtful. A certain
small, regular incomo any child over six
years or ago ought to have. When he comes
to be capable or keeping an account he
ought to be obliged to do it; he will there
by acquire a habit of irugality, attention
aud prudence that will bo of service to him
through" his, whole life. On tho contrary, to
give a young person money to spend at, will,
without requiring any account of.it, is lead
ing, or rather forcing, him into extrava
gance and folly. '
Water Drinking.
, Dr. Hall Is opposed to the immoderate-drinking,
of water. He says : ."The. longer-.one
puts off drinking in the morning., especially
in the summer, tho less ho will rcquire.dur
ing tho day. If much is drunk during the
Tornoon tho thirst increases and a very un
pleasant fullness is observed in addition to
a metalic taste in tho mouth. Tho less, a
man drinks tho better for him, beyond a
moderate amount. Tho rooro water a man
drinks the moro strength ho has to' 'expend
in getting, rid of it, for all tho fluid taken
into tbo system must, bo carried, put, and
thero is but'little nourishment in, water, ten,
coffee, beer ntld the like'; more ' btreugth'is
expended in carrying them out of the sys
tem than they impart to it. Tho moro a
man drinks tho more ho.'perepires, cither by
lungs or through tho skin ; the morp he por
spircs tho moro, carbon is taken from, tho
system ; but 'this carbon is necessary 'for
nutrition, henco thodess a nlan is nourished
the less strength ho has. Drinking water
largely diminishes the strength in two ways,
aud yet Inany aro under thd impression that
the nlord water swal lowed tho moro thor
oughly1 is tho system washed out. Thus tho
less'we Urink at inetils tho better for us;. It
the amount were' limited to n singlo cuptof
hot ten or hot milk and water at-cach meal,
an immeasurable godd would result-to all.
Many peisons have fiillen into tho practico
ortlriukiiigssevcrnl glasses of cold water or
several cups or hot tea or coll'ee nt meals,
outbt habit.- All such will ho greatly bene
fitted by breaking it up at once. H-uiayibo
very well to drink a littlo at each meal, and
perhaps it will bo found that in all cases it
is much better .to tako n single cup of hot
ten at each. mjaf than "a glass of .cold water,
however pure.
