When men of this class thrive, they are even more disagreeable than when they are hanging on the skirts of society, not knowing precisely where the next morning's breakfast is to come from, nor caring much, so long as they can procure the morning's cock-tail. Sometimes they arc very successful and go up to very high places in the government. They are the smart men of politics. There is noth ing honest or substantial about them. Everything is false and glittering. They arc all spurious coin. Here is one who has even gone into the highest ofticlal circles. Men mention him for even the Presidency; but he is simply a larger edi tion of the man who stands in the lobby and plies his trade of illegitimate money making. Study his face closely, and you can guess the character—a character which has been developed by the life in which the man has always been engaged, and which, in its turn, has placed its in delible mark upon the features. The face is, llrst of all, a vulgar one. The nose is large and flat; the eyes are hard and rest less; the fat cheeks betoken high living, and not over refined pleasures. Look at his face and disregard his manner, and you know that he will take the last cent from his best friend in a bargain. Watch his eye, looking everywhere but at you while he talks to you, and you know that he is insincere and selfish —that you are but some one who may some day be of use to him—and that, all the while he flatters you, he is looking about for some one else in whose ear he can whisper a good word for himself. lie feels 110 friendship; but he has many sycophants about him who really feel some regard for him. He is the creature of his own manners. He is the man who slaps com mon people 011 the back—who sends home trembling with delight at the touch ing exhibition of personal regard, a poor government clerk, out of whose paper of figs he has helped him self 011 the public streets. Look at him on the avenue some day at the beginning of a session. He walks down the street, arm in arm, with an acquaintance. His face is wreathed with smiles,to which there is 110 response in his eyes. Those sharp little members are glancing rapidly abont to spy out some one to whom it would be well to speak. He sees a group of newspaper correspondents—not the men who do the work, nor have the confidence of the best public men, but men w r ho are shallow enough to be turned into flatterers, and to be captured by the smart politician,be cause he calls them by their Christian names—and invites them to his house when he has all the rest of the world. They, too, call him by his first name, but always behind his back. His manners seem to inspire that kind of familiarity; but, when his ardent admirers approach him closely, they find something holding them at a distance. "llow are you Tom?" "I'm glad to see you, Billy." Thus he goes down the avenue in his af ternoon walk, shaking hands, advertising himself to the crowd. When a man can 110 longer be of service to him, he forgets him, and when a service has been render- Ed, lie forgets the offered reward—the same reward, undoubtedly, having been solemnly promised to a large number of befooled people. lie is a great humbug, but a very successful one. Tney tell it as a fact of a man in Washington, that he has his offices arranged in small rooms, so that when he has a crowd of visitors, he can flatter each in turn by taking them into quiet corners, where 110 man can see them. 111 this way, the self love of the confidant is flattered, and 110 other admirer of the great man is wound ed.— The American. The induction balance used tor the pur pose of locating the ball in the Presi dent's body differs materially from the apparatus with which the experiments began. The apparatus in its present form consists ol two flat coils, about four inches in diameter and half an inch in thickness, of insulated copper wire, a battery condenser, a circuit breaker, and telephone. The small clock, which was part ofthe oriirnal apparatus, has been dispensed with. For the convenience of application to the body, the coils used were mounted in an erect angular piece of walnut, seven inches in length and four in breadth, with screw posts at the cor ners for wires, and a handle on the back, by which it could be held. The following is Prof. Bells report to the surgeons regarding the experiments. "I beg to submit for your information a brief statement of the results obtained with the new form of induction balauce in the experiments made for the purpose of locating the bulletin the person of the President. The instrument was tested for sensitiveness several times during the course of the experiments and found to respond well to the presentation of a flat tened bullet at a distance of about four inches from the coils. When the explor ing coils were passed over that part of the abdomen where a souorous spot was observed in the experiments made July 26th. feeble tone was perceived but the effect was audible a considerable distance around this spot. The sounds were too feeble to be entirely satisfactory, as I had reason to suspect from the extreme sen sitiveness of the instrument, a much more marked effect. In order to ascer tain whether similar sounds might be ob tained in other localities I explored the whole right side and back below the point of entrance of the bullet, but no part gave indications of the presence of metal except an area of about two inches in diameter containing within it the spot previously found to be sonorous. The experiments were repeated by Taiuter who obtained exactly corresponding re sults. We are, therefore, justified in concluding that the ball is located within the above named area. In our prelimi nary experiments we found that a bullet like the one in question when in its nor mal shape produced 110 audible effect be yond a distance of two and a half inches while the same bullet flattened and pre sented with its face parallel to the plane of coils have indications up to a distance of nearly live inches. The same flattened bullet held with its face perpendicular to the plane of colls produced 110 sound be yond a distance of one inch. These facts show that in the ignorance of the actual shape and mode of presentation of the bullet to the exploring instrument, the depth at which the bullet lies beneath the surface cannot be determined from our experiments."
