General Iloracs Porter contributes nn ar- ticlo to the Century on "Tho Philosophy of Couragp," from which we quote us followm "Iudifferenco to danger is not always the form of courage which should ontitleits possessor to tho highest credit. It is a nega tive virtue as uompared with tho quality which omibles one to perform a dangerous duty while realizing the full measure of the peril encountered. ihcfie two traits aro best illustrated by the old story of Iho two soldiers whose regiment wus charging up a hill in a desperata attempt to capture a buttery.

When tho famous mine in front of Petersburg had been completed, and the National troops drawn up ready to charge tho euemy'i works as soon as the mine had done its work in creating a breach, the signal was given just before daylight, the ruse was lighted, and tho command stood waiting with intense anxiety for the explosion which was to follow. Hut seconds, then minutes, then tens of minutes passed. and still no sound from the mine. The suspense became painful, and the gloom of disappointment overspread the anxious faces of and men.

They entered tho long dark gallery which led to tho mine, and without stopping to calculate tho chances of life, calmly exposed themselves to ono of the most horrible forms of death.
With no ex citement to lend them its intoxication, with nothing to divert their minds from the fate which seemed to await them, they followed the course of the fuse through tho long subterranean passage, found tho defect at which tho spark had been arrested, and made a now splico. On their return the match was again applied, and tho train was now prompt to do its deadly work. These men displayed oven a higher order of cour age than those who atterwards charged into tho breach." CHEWING DECREASING. Reasons Why Dealers no Not 8oU as Much "flug" ai Formerly, When the elder Charles Dickens was In this country on his first visit there was no one of the American habits which called forth from the great novelist more condemnation than the one of chewing tobacco, says tho Now York Press. But times change, and National as well as personal habit change with them America is no longer a nation of tobacco chewers, and that manner of using tobacco Is gradually, but surely, passing away.
Every tobacconist recognizee the great chango that is taking place in what In one sense may be termed tho public taste. A tobacco dealer, whose trade is not almost exclusively among Bailors, says that be does not Bell one-half as much chewing tobacco to-day as ho did ten years ago, and not more than onctuird as much as twenty years ago. Bald one of them a few days agoi "The falling off in the use of chewing tobacco is a great deal more apparent here in tho Kafct than It is in tho Bouth and West, but it is noticeable everywhere. One cause for tho decadence of tho habit is undoubtedly duo to the growth of publio opinion that it is an uncleanly habit. It is hard also for a man addicted to the habit to keup from showing evidences of it on bis clothes and porson, But the principal causes are right here.
There is a great deal more dyspepsia and Blomach trouble in tho country now than there used to be, and no person with a weak stomach can chew tobacco. The action of the tobacco juice, which trickles down the throat of a chewor, is to paralyze the action of tho stomach. It will accomplish that long butore tobacco smoke will leave any perceptible effct upon the lungs. Then, ugain, tho cigarette has dono a great deal to put an end to the chewing habit. The growth of the cigarette practice in this country is and has been pheuomenal.
The consumption of cigarettes has multiplied many times duriug the last fifteen years. About seven out of every ten boys now growing up smoko cigarettes. After a boy has smoked cigarettes for a few yeara he has not only no taste for tobacco In any other form, but ho has no stomach or constitution left to stand chewing tobacco. 'The sufferings which an inveterate tobacco chewer endures when he first deprives himself of hia accustomed 4 weed are popularly supposed to be almost intolerable. Borne ex -chewers say they are, while others maintain that they are nothing which a resoluto will and clear head cau not easily master.
All agree, however, that they have to use some substitute at first, be it only a match or a wooden toothpick," OUR NATIONAL FLOWER. An Kutteru Lady Claims This Title for the Alodet iany.

As soon as the party had taken thetr places General Collins stepped forward and addressed tho President as follows Ws come as a committee, authorized and instructed by the National Democratic convention recently held at St. Louis, to convey formal notice of its action In naming you (or the office of President of the United States, during the next four years. It would ill become the Docaslon of your presence to express nt length the full meaning and significance of tiiat great assembly. Its expression will be found and heard elsewhere, and otherwise from now till that day la November when this freo and mtel ltjgent people will record their unprovul of your great servh es as chief mitgistruie. We beg to congratulate you upon this hearty and unani mous indorsem*nt of your course as President, by the great Lisiuric party to which in all the flays of your manhood you have bolonged, and congratulate tho country upon the ait red continuance of your wise, jut and patriotic administration.
Upon concluding his remarks, Mr. Collins Introduced Mr. Charles 1). Jacob, of Kentucky, who road the following letter of notification: Hon, Orovtr Clevelanfl, of New York: But: The delegate to tho National Democratic convention, representing every Htate and Territory of our Union, having assembled In the city of St. Louis on June 5, for the purpone of nominating candidates for tho offices of president and Vice-President of tho United States, It has becomo the honorable and pleasing duty of this committee to formally announce to you that, without a ballot, you were, by acclamation, chosen the standard-beaver of the Democratic party for the chief exccutivealdp of this country, at the election to be held in November next.
Ore at at 1 such, distinction under any circ*mstances, It the mo.ro fluttering anil profound When it is remembered that you have been so-looted as your own successor to an office, the duties of which always onerous, havo bern rendered of an extraordinarily sonsltlvo, difficult md delicate nature, benause of a change of political parties and methods after twenty-four years of uninterrupted domination. This exaltation la, If possible, added to by the fuel mat the declaration of principles bused upon your last annual message to the Congress of the United States relative to a turifl reduction and a diminution of the expenses of the Government throws down the direct and defiant challenge for an exacting scrutiny of the administration of the executive power which four years ago was committed to its trust by the election of Grover Cleveland Presldnnt of the United States, and for tho most searching inquiry concerning iu fidelity and devotion to tliu pledges Which then invited the suffrages of the people, An engrossed oopy of that platform, adopted Without a dissenting voice, lis hurt' wait tendered to you. In convoying, sir, to you, the responsible trust Which has been confided to thetn, this committee beg, Individually and coil exprosi ttoe great pleasure which they have fi-lt at the result attending the National convention of th Democratic party, and to oiler to you their bei wishes for oftlcial and persumil tuctss and hup-pipes. We have tho honor, sir, to bo your obedient servants. Signed by all of the members of tho committee.
Mr. Thomas Pcttlt, secretary or tho notification committee, then presented Mr. Cleveland ivlih a handsomely engrossed oopy of tho platform adopted at tho National pemocratic convention. The President, in reply, said: I can not but be profoundly impressed when I ee about me the messengers of the democratic party bearing Its summons to duly. The polit.
teal party to which I owo allegiance both honors and commands me. It places in my hnud Its proud standard and bids me bear It high at the front, in a battle which It wages, bravely because conscious ol right, confidently becauhu Its trust is in the people, and soberly because it comprehends tho obligations winch success imposes. The message which you bring awuUens within me the liveliest sense of personal gratitude and satisfaction and the honor which you tender me is in itself so great that thore might well be no room for any other sentiment. And yet I can not rid myself of crave and serious thoughts when I remembor that party supremacy Is not alone involved in tho conflict which presses upon us, but that wo struggle to secure nd save the cherished institution, the wclfaro and happiness of a nntion of free men. Familiarity with tho great office which I hold has but added to my apprehension of Its sacred character and the consecration donanded of him who assumes its immense responsibility It it the repository of tho people's will and power.
Within its vision should be the protection and welfare of the humblest citizen, and With quick ear it should catch from the remotest cornor of tho land the pica of the people for Justice and for right, For tho sake of the people, he who holds this office of theirs should resist every encroai hmcnt upon Us legitimate functions, and for the sake of tho integrity and usefulness of the oftlce, tt should bo kept near to the people and be administered In lull sympathy with their wants and needs. This occasion reminds me tmi vividly of tho scene when four years ago I received a message from my party similar to that which you now deliver. With nil that hus passed since that day can truly say that the feeling of awe with which I heard the summons then Is intensified many fold when It Is rupcatod now. Fouryeurs. ago 1 knew that our chief executive ofilce If not carefully guarded, plight drill Utile by Uttlo fcvvay from the people to whom It belonyed and become a pervcrstiou of nil 11 ought to be; but I did not know.how much its moorings hud already been loosened.
I knew four years ago how wen devised were tho principles of true Democracy for the successful operation of a government by the people and for tho people; but I did not know how absolutely necessary thyir application then was for the isioratlon to the people pf their safety and prosperity. 1 knew then that abuse and extravagances had crept Into the manngemtmt of public atlalrs; but 1 did not know heir numerous forms, nor the tenacity of their grasp. I knew then something of tho bitterness of partisan obstruction; but I did Dot know how bitior, how reckless and how shameless it could bo. I knew, too, tmu tho American people were patriotic nnd just; but I did nut Itnow how grandly they loved their country, nor how noble and gm. reus they were.
I shall not dwell upon the acts and the polloy of the administration now drain to its close. Us record Is opon to uvury citizen o( the land. And yet Will not bo denied tho privilege of asserting at thiefluie that In the exurelNc of the functions of the high trust con tided to mo I have yielded obedience only to tho Constitution and the solemn obligation of my oath of ofilce. I imvo done those things which. In the light of the Understanding Cio I has given me.
