That traveler,says the ChicagoGlobe, was Mungo Park. In his menudrshe says: “I am firmly convinced that the softmusic of that negro woman’s song aavedmy Ufa and gave menewstrength■ for my undertaking.’' How or when the negro acquired his loveof music history cannot tell. He*, rodotas tells of the “aoundingbovra'f<of the Ethiopian*—black bows whose stringsgave out a melody sweeter than thenotes of lyre or eithcro, andwhich were In great demand at festivals. In Homan times the Mauritanian blacks were noted for tlicirmusical skill, and the chroniclersof tlto.mtodfcilfgMoften apeakof the sable musjeijw* Wbode- lighted the lordly Sayaoeni With tbeir talent. In the strange, feystertone land of Africa, the negro ha* little to do and abundance wherewith to. sup­ port lifo. Doubtless, in the earlierages, he"loungedAbout his hut day after day, until at Inst from sheerennui,he turned to Quisle as a meansof employing his idle time. Aa the centuries rolled oh the black became more and more skilled in musical art until, when hi* race first began to Bee the shore*of America, heWas already avocal and to* atrumcntal gsoto*of high merit, But it was among the negro slaves that the “divine art” reached its per­ fection. The poor African, torn from hi*nativeland, and sent from ease and idleness to hard work, under an exact* fag master, could not express his thoughts to the ordinary language of oommod conversation, bnt all the pa­ thos, all the sorrow of hi*misfortunes sad bis surroundings, acting upon his esotitive aad romantic nature, eom- Maed to produce a type of sourwhich the world ho* never seen surpassed.

Th* word treasury, says Kste Foote to the Independent, makes one .think only of the million* in the vaults. But the departments under the treosmy roof are numerous. They are fbbse of the saperviBing architect, the bureau of engravingand printing— that is where all ouy notes, bondsand oer- tificatcsand revenueandcustjomstomps are printed;the aeeretaervtoedivision— they “watch out” forcounterfeitersand smugglers; the office of steamboat In­ spection, the bureau of statistics, the difHavtog service, the comptroller’s .offices, the commissions* of customs, the register of the treasury, who Is the bookkeeper of the United States, andwho haa to know how every dollar .of tho pnblia money to Spent or else cameto grief. Then there are tin aud­ itors, who' help the .register l:aep his eyeson all the claimsand accountsVtat come to the treasury, and the treasurer of the United Stator, who. with hi* clerks, receipt*and pays out money to banks and keeps their bonds.

The tnisslonerof internal revenue.'who at­ tends to our internal revenue taxes and matters pertaining to distil­ leries, is the one whbm the “moon shiners” of North Carolina swear at when a sudden raid from Some unexpected quarter Is made upon their illicit distilleries of whisky. The director of tho mint at­ tend*to these littlo mint drops, our gold dollars, and estimates the value of the coin of foreign countries. The bn raau of navigation tries to keep us from being blown up by reckless steam- 1 boat owners, who for filthy lucre would send us tosea in ill-fitttog vessels. The lighthouse board trids tokeep us off the rocks and shoalswhen wo have gone to sea in the voseclo that the faspcctor of steam vessel*saysarc safe, and the re­ port* of this board and the lights they set up alongour coast are very interest­ ing subject* to agreat many hundred miles of coast, bothon salt water and freshwater. 1 am told that there is a lighthouse awayoup in Lake Michigan where the man or* .shut to for six months.
