For once Michigan was mystified and four pair of ey«*s looked with astonishment at the shinning globe owhich appeared to possess so much knowledge. Again and again puzzling questions were asked of the unseen lady, and e»cli was in turn an­ swered correctly. For many minutes the Michigan people monopolized the ball, and mare than one of the party experienced a feeling akin to supersti­ tion as they thought over the mystery and endavored it) vain to solve the problem. Mr. Rice, of of the well- known Arm .of Rice & Moore, was one of the puzzled party, and endeavored before leaving the museum to induce an attache of the establishment*!*) re­ veal the secret. But his efforts were unsuccessful and they returned home wltb the mystery unresolved.--Herald. AUCTION SALE. mm Kv ^ The AMlst&nt Secretary of the In­ terior--Ron. M. L. Joslyn--lias ably ^conded ill of Mr. Teller's acts of jus­ tice to Midlers, and deserves eqnallv well It tbeir hands. He will of course retltHLWith ills chief upon the advent of tlflpiew administration. We sincere- ly heiifcthat the people of his District in Il||||ta will return him to Congress, and fnft soldiers should inaugurate and press forward to success suc«i a move­ ment in his behalf. Tbe above from ttie National Tribune In connection with a Well-merited tri­ bute paid to that stanqch frlenl of our ex-Union soldiers, Hon, Henry il,.Tel­ ler, Secretary of the Interior, we heartily endorse- Of the Hon. M. L« Joslyn It ciK truthfully be said tliat lie knows well what It was to have born "the heat and burden of the day" In tin* of actual war. Entering the service almost among the first to re spond to the call for troops in 1861, he remained until bis health was broken and served with distinction in that gallaut regiment, the 36th Ills. He was popular as an officer and left the service only when his failing health permitted bim no longer to remain. The honorable position Mr. Joslyn now holds he is well qualified to fill and adapted for; and never has the office of Assistant Secretary of the Interior been presided over by an abler, more humane and patriotic public official than at the present time. All of his official acts are tempered with justice to all concerned, and those that "wore the blue" will lose a true aud zealous champion of their rights when he shall retire from office. Besides being the >ldier, their widows, indent relatives. Mr. ly fair as far as unearned with tbe lie has been painstaking tin the exact and true facts in •r appeals of whatever nature bfonght before him, to pass upon. His decisions so impartial and reasons for such defined so clearly that any who have read them cannot but conclude that bis appointment was an excellent One. Mr. Joelyn's part in deciding any matters pertaining to pensions all y»na«4r strongly of good common sense and it can readily be perceived that he does not consider all claimants falsi- fleis and cheats until such has been proven aga'.nst them. He has been long enough in the practice of law to perceive the first intimation of fraud and is as excellent judge of human nature even though he may arrive at condnsions upon the explanation of proof furnished and personal state- ments made by those whom he has never set eyes upon. In consideration of these facts the writer hopes with tbe National Tribune that so capable and good a pnbltc servant as Mr. Joslyn has proven himself to be, shall, when the proper time arrives, be tendered position of trust and honor where his services may be appreciated by all for Whom he has labored and hereby done his whole duty.
