done, and very soon too, that will be the
result. It is oertainly not pleiisant for
a umjority of the people to con
template that by their no ion iu Novem

uuwitliugly so, perhaps, that is in a

Veol i After Ills Return from Con

Announcements.
The business card of Abraham Lin
coln, reproduced here from the Chicago
Inter Ocean, was not an advertisement,
but a sinull glazed card, on which are
printed his name, business, address and
comments, as reproduced in the fac
simile here presented. The lettering
is plain on the card, and under "To
whom it may concern," the letters are
small and humorously set forth the fol
lowing:

The curd belonged to a collection of
such curios and a number of autographs
in the possession of tbe lute (ieorge W.
IbtUer, of Chicago. Tbe authenticity of
the card cannot be doubted as Mr.
Baker treasured it for years uniting bis
collection and frequently exhibited it,
though he left no written document of
how itcumc into his possession. U is
known, however, from what Mr. linker
bud suiil nhotit it, that the card was one
of a lot Mr. Lincoln had printed and
used after his return from the congress
to which he was elected in lHltt over
Uev. Peter Cartwright.
Mr. Lincoln was not a candidate for
roeloction, and the disinclination to be
a citiulidute is well conveyed in his "to
whom it tmiy concern'' wherein, as
well, he expresses his satisfaction at
being at home again with tbe hope of
securing more congenial work than had
been incumbent upon him in the dis
charge of his duties in congress.
The quuintness of the humor and the
oddity of the address t the public on
tho business curd are eminently charac
teristic of Lincoln's originality. There
are expressions, Uw. in the "to whom it
may concern" with which Mr. Lincoln
fauiiliurized the country afterward.
"Swapping horses" and "splitting
rails," which were not enough striking

enough famous to cause anyone to per
petrate a joke on him iu manufacturing
such a business card for A. Lincoln.
Tho work was Lincoln's. The card
bears the Impress of the man as much
us it docs his name.

THE SCOTTISH CRIQAND.
A lilt ol Dordrr History of the Time at
James V.
Of all the minor border castles few
are more renowned in song and story
than the Tower of Johnnie Armstrong,
the laird of Gilnockte, who, Piseottie
tells us. "was the most redoubted
chieftain that has been for a long time
on the borders, cither of Scotland or
England," says Casscll's Picturesque
Lurope. "lie ever rode with four-and-twenty
able gentlemen, well horsed,
yet he never molested any Scottish
man;" and it is said that from the bor
ders of Newcastle "every Englishman,
of whatever state, paid him tribute"
(blackmail), which seems barely pos
sible. His tower, called the IIolc house, is
oblong, sixty feet in length, forty-siz
wide and seventy high, furnished with
a capehouse and turrets. It occupies
a steep rock, on tho small promontory
of ttlnockic. washed on three sides by
the L"sk in Dumfneshiro and protcctod
on the fourth by a deep ditch. Dunn?
tho reign of James V. he committed
such ravages and excited such terror
by his forays into Wostmoreland that
his band of mosstroopers bocamc so
great as to hazard a dctiunce of the
crown. Hence the king marched
against him, with numerous forces, in
person, and halted at Eucsdalc, a pas
toral district of Dumfricshire, whence
he sent a herald to summon tho at
tendance of the laird of Uilnocltic and
his chief followers under a promise, it
is said, of security.
The laird is known to have yielded
a ready attendance, and in token of
his peaceful intentions toward his sov
ereign he and thirty-six gentlemen,
his adherents, ran their horses at a
gallop and broke all their lances on
Langholm Holm, while, as tho ballad
has it, their ladies looked from the
lofty win lows, saying: "Uo 1 send our
men well bade afain." Uut they were
all hanged by order of the kin?, to
whom, on findin? his loyal promises
derided, Armstrong suid proudly:
"It is folly to seek grace at a grace
less face; had I known this I should
have lived on the borders, despite you
and King Harry, too, though I know
that he would wei.rrh down my best
horse with gold to learn that I am to
die this day."
WILLIAM'S LATCST CRAZE.
The (lermaa Emperor Wants Dl-imond
Wnrlh 81, III l.nil'l fur Ills New C rown.
Emperor VVillinm is trying to obtain
the biggest diamond in the world for
his new crown which is being made in
Ilerlin. This diamond is called the Ex
celsior. It was found last June in tho
mines of South Africa and iii said to
be worth 85,000,030. H i:i three inches
high, nearly three inches broad, weighs
971 karats and is of matchless luster.
For it the Uritish government has of
fered S2,500,003. The excitement of
diamond hunting is something new to
the young man who rules over Ger
many and is contributing vastly to the
amusement of an interested public by
the multiplicity of the roies in which
he chonsos tonnnour Everv r.Wnm ths.
says the Brooklyn Lngic, represents a
crisis in his career that is to sny, a
crisis of the continental sort. It is
either the sensation of gett ng beaten
in an English yacht raco, or the inci
dent of an addition to the family, or
the necessity of increasing the army
and taxes at the same time, or the mor
tttication of knowing tliat llismarck
still has a warm place in the hearts of
the people; or the return of an affec
tion in the cur, or the recurring anx
iety about Prance or ltussia, or tho
suppression of socialism, or a military
pageant in which ho strives to carry
oil all the glory, or a pheasant shoot
ing match whatever it bo it is very
certain the kaiser Is bound to keep
himself in tho public eye. Now it is a
chase for a diamond. That the jawel
is of such immense value simply in
creases bis desire to get it, just as the
ardor of a young man's suit la inten
sified bv the unwillingncssof his sweet
heart to commit herself. This restless
ness, this recurving desire to say or do
or obtain some thing w hich will not per
mit his personality to be even momen
tarily forgotten makes a lively contri
bution to the literature concerning the
ways of modern kings.

It is very interesting to trace the
origin of s me of the good old tunes
with which we arc familiar. There
have been many controversies as to
their authorship.
"Old Hundred" has been variously
ascribed to Pr. Martin Luther, Dr.
John llowland and William Erunek.
Dr. Lowell Muson wrote uite a trea
tise on the old tune, suyi.ig emphatic
ally that it was written by tiuillaum
(William) l'ranck (1MX) l'.ut later
musical historians say it was com
, posed by Louis liourgcois, of Trance,
, in MM.
' The old tune, "God Savo the King,"
j or "America." so universally sung to
"My Country, 'Tis of Thee," wat com
posed by Dr. John Hull (15(iJ-t(WS),
nmsie teacher to (jueeu Elizabeth,
about ldOU.
i The tune of "Yankee Doodle" has
j hail seven or eijht treatises written
I upon it in the lust thirty years, ascrib
ing it to various dates and origins,
even back to tho Netherlands and the
j Jays of Cromwell and the Charleses.
Dr. Bcorgc tlrovc, of London, Eng.,
investigated thoroughly the various
musical libraries anil tho Uritish muse
um in England, (hiding no trace of it
whatever.
Hut "Yankee Doodle" has an origin
and bus a history. It was written by
l)r. liichard Schuchburgh (whose com
mission dates 17;1T), in tlie French ami
Indian war of 1775 under lien. Jeffrey
Amherst, and was Intended as a "take
oil"' on the 'Tag. tug ami bobtail" re
cruits of the colonies that came into
the army.
The first words: "I'ather and I went
down to ciu:i;," were in the lloston
Journal, lTtis, and the tlrst record of
the tune is in Arnold's "Two to One."
I7S4; so that "Yankee Doodle," al
though written by a Uritish surgeon,
is really American.
The time "Star Spangled llitnncr"
is au aduptutiou of "Anucreon in
Heaven," composed by Dr. Samuel
Arnold, (KSS-ltiOJl of England, 177a
"Hail Columbia." or the TroddenCs
Mnrch," was by Irof. 1'hj las, of Phil
adelphia, 17M).
"Portuguese Hymn." or "Adeste
Fidcles," is ascribed by English mu
aiciaus to ,'nhn Heading, who died i i
1704. lint Herbert I'. Main, of New
York, a musical untiipiuriun, says the
tune cannot be found as in existence
previous to 17'.'0. lie says it was cotu
IRiscd and written by Marcautonio
Simoe (KHt!iS0). He wrote under the
assumed name of "Portogallo."

FOR INVENTIONS.
Equal with the interest of those having claims against the government Is
that of INVENTORS, who often lose the benefit of valuable inventions because
of the incompetency or inattention of the attorneys employed to obtain their
patents. Toe much care cannot be exercised in employing competent and reli
able solicitors tc procure patents, for the value of a patent depends greatly, 11 not
entirely, upoc the care and skill of the attorney.
With the view of protecting inventors from worthless or careless attorneys,
and of seeing that inventions are well protected by valid patents, we have re
tained counsel expert in patent practice, aud therefore are prepared to
Obtain Patents in the United States and all Foreign Countries , Conduct In
terferences, Make Special Examinations, Prosecute Rejected Cases,
Register Trade-Marks and Copyrights, Render Opinions as to
Scope and Validity of Patents, Prosecute and
Defend Infringement Suits, Etc., Etc.
If you have an invention on hand send a sketch or photograph thereof, to
gether with a brief description of the important features, and you will be at once
advised as to the best course 'c pursue. Models are seldom necessary. If
others are infringing ou your rig) ts, or if you are charged with infringement by
others, submit the matter to u- for a reliable OPINION before acting the
utter.
