It is the republican senator who hss time for moon light strolls now; his democratic rival has previous engage- ments. We have had & good deal to make us tired during the past two months, 8> many celebra'ions, and things and It Is not at all strange if we do feel *‘doncy- llke.” The attempt to celebrate GEN. GEANTS BIRTHDAY was a fizzle In polnt of distinction of prominent men preeent on that ‘“‘auspiclous occcasion.” 1 think the tlme to celebrate a distlogulshed man's birthday Is while he Is liviog, so that he msy know who his friends really sre Ttat Gen. Grant ls dearly loved, and that nowhere is he more fully sppreclated than Iin Washington there is no question, fic | but why there was not more enthuslasm over the meetlpg held at the Metropolitan church is due to the fact thut it was held at a church. Churches arc good places to have fanerals in; but hardly the fit place to bs bornin, Cholr sioging is aleo appropriate—for fanerals, but some- how altogether too doleful for bir.h- deys. People want to be cheerfal and hilarious on birthdays, glve vent to thelr joy; the church puts & damper npon hi- larity and crushes out all dispoitton to dance for joy. Whoever had the matter in charge tont Invitations to the groat men of the hour, and it was published that the president, his cabinet, ¥hil Sheridan, the general of the army, &c. would be present. The president, his cabloet, Gen. Pbil Sherldan, &c., were not there! and neither was Jim Blaine, but he wrote a lotter expresslog his re- grot that the Invitation didn’t come sooner 80 that he might have made arrangements to attend! It matters not what his engsgement might have been, if all his shirtts were In the wash and he put the last one (n the day betore. This ls sometimes the case— nothing so urgent, unless it be that law #uit in Indlans, that he could not have boen present. There are some very bit- ter words at the end of my pencll, but withhold them for Gen. Grant's sske. Men who have been conspicuous in pub- lio lfo wers notlcesbly absent. When Gen. Grant was thought to be dying President Cleveland postponed a public reception on the very eve and hour of its taking place, a2d all the world applauded him for it. Now, had he and his cabinet given their distinguished preseace to the meeting, even If 1t was only in a Metho- dist church (I thiok that's the reasen they didn’t attend) the people all over the country would have been pleased and the general good feeling for the present sdministration 8o strengthened that many & blunder would be forglven. How- ever, Senator Manderson presided with his usual elegance snd ease of manoer, and some very kind words were spoken for General Grant; and 1f the heartfelt piayers are answered Gen.

Fremont Herald, May 2. For some days (and especially slnce tbe abrupt departure of Messenger, the *‘stock king,") there have been rumors that the finsncial affawrs of John Y. Smith, of Norch Beand, were not in the best pcssible conditfon, snd that unexpected transfers of real ertate had a tuspiclons lock. A year or s 8go he dimolved pariership. with Mr. Mallon, aod stnce that time he has largely been engaged in buying corn overin Iowa for a Chicago commission firm and the.r sgent, l.cated at Ames, Iowa. He also retsined his businees connection at North Bend, and was there much of the time. About two weeks ago he lefo the Bend, with his wife, repre- senting that he was going to Ames. Soon afterwards telegrams began to arrive from that plsce luquiring for him, from whih it was evident that they expected him and that he had not arrived. Before leaving the Bend he drew two or three drafts upon the house before nawed, which were ceshed. 1t ls lesrned that a letter has besn received from him, dated New York, eince he left, but wnothirg else to indicate his present whereabouts, He has an uncle in Cansds, with whose money he bas largely been doing business, and itmsy be surmised that he has gone there, The smount of his shortcomings, 80 far as known at presont s about twen- ty-three thousand dollars, Of thls, the agent before mentioned Is Interested In 813,000, and the firm to the tune of 810,000 or over. Betwecn the business at North Berd and in ITowa he was supposed to have a large sup. ply of corn to show for his drefts, but on iovestigation it doesn’s soem to materialize, Thera is probably nothing more criminal In the trapeac— tions than breach of faith, and as there is nothing of his earthly possessions that oan be got at except the farm near North Bend, which was already mortgeged for ou’ all it ‘s worth, It would seem that his vie:dws can whistle for their ewn amusement, Romsey & Buel this wornipg procured an order of attachment out of the district court of Dodge coun'y agsinat Smith, for the sum of $16,000, and Sherifl Curran has gone up there to gobble what he can find by virtue of sid sttschment. Mr. Smith has stood high as a trustcd bu ness man, and this break came upon his friends like a streak of lighining out of a clear sky. — Gen, Grant’s Oondition, Niw Youk, May 2. —Last night was the worat with Gen, Grant in two weeks, He . after retiriog only at short intervals Tatil six this moraing when he fell into a wloep whicn continued until eight. — Then he awoke again, but afterwards dozed until about ten, The general’s nervousnoss is at- trit uted by Dr. Douglas to cerebral exci tion resulting f1om work on his book and the uafavorsble condition of the weather, His throst and geeral physicial condition are uot buch asto caute wuy uoeaviness The weekly consultation will be held to! oW, ) #lej
