There he finds time to indnlea hia fancies in writing, and when he writes he shows himself yet possessed of the gentle touch and power to describe Bouth scenes that characterized his "Southern Silhouette" work that was each an agreeable feature in the old Chicago Current This week the "Minor Key" is able to favor readers with the following original bit by James B.

Cable, called "The Pine Knot." He says "Looking at it as it lies partly hidden by the brown, dry, straw needles of the pine trees, blackened, perhaps, by the pine that has swept upon and over and beyond it, the result of some hunter's recklessness or of soma herdsman's greedy haste for fresh, new grass looking at it as it lies there twisted, ungainly and tough who that did not know the pine knot, would -suspect that, like a hospitable host, it would brighten and eheer and gladden so that gloom, leepondeney and even dull stolidity would change to joyance It is not very pretty this pine knot. But as its heart is warmed and it brightens and lightens the 'dark hearth, how the human heart responds with kindly warmth, the human countenance catches the reflection, gladness and merriment spring or sweet, holy, calm content illumines all around with its gentle yet genial glow. It is like the plain, the homely woman of one's love. No beauty radiant, no form symmetric no grace imperial yet from and by the light, the warmth it sends forth from the home hearth, there are sympathy, solace and that make us feel it is a blessed thing to have within the home. And, further in its likeness.

As the odor of its resin rises to our grateful sense we know we breathe into ourselves that which both purifies and strengthens us. Out in the forest once more. The giddy grasses, eager 'to flare and flame that they may mako a noise and be observed though thereby they go to their death-how like the foolish crowd of men and women who must flaunt themselves and be noticed, be the outcome what it may; though quickly they are, gone, consumed, and only a pinch of ashes tells the -place where once- they stood I And then, when wind or rain has swept away the little that remains of them, one comes glad for the fire which took away the grass leaving more easily to be seen the cheering pine knot. Again, I think of it; it is again a figure. For while for itself this pine knot has or knows no cheer just like a clod it lies there, only to jar some vehicle or some heavy loaded team take it to the home and it is full of cheer and joy and blessing for others.

Then, too, the tree from which it came must be remembered. As we connect the two in thought, we are reminded of that gentle One who said 'Abide in For, by his figure of the fruitful branch, which, to be such, must in the vine abide, we see that every branch springs from the heart of that on which it grows, or is but the heart continued. Prickles issue from the bark, thorns from the wood beneath but the branch springs a bud, a twig, a far outreaching limb right from the heart so that if we would tear it from the parent tree, we lacerate the tree's, own heart. But branch and tree have fallen to die and rot. Of all' that went to make' it what it was only the knots remain.

Not pelting rain, nor scorching sun, nor winter's cold has rotted them. Oather them, carry them home, pile them up in the broad chimney, touch the match to them and the little, humble home is filled with brightness, the crowing babe crows louder with delight by the bright, dancing flames the boy pores over his book, father and mother sit silent side by side, yet speaking, each to each, the sweet, nnspoicen language of clasped hands. What though the hearth be only ely. the floor nncarpet-ed, the windows without sash 1 What though the fare be frugal, the daily labor hard The trees that gave those pine knots they and their offspring after them filled and are filling all the air around with sweetness, purity and health.

WSJ" DB. M. BONZANO, Student, Official and 5Xaa of Affair. A scholarly hermit, a neaoef ul philos opher, living an existence approaching, in its unique features, that pictured in the verses of the pastoral poets, is Dr. Maximilian Ferdinand Bonzano, who, after years of the most active public life, is now residing quietly at his "Hermitage" plantation in St.

Bernard parish. Dr. Bonzano was born on the 23d of March, 1821, in Wurtemberg, Germany. After attending the schools and entering the principal college of his native city he came to America with his father and brother in 1S35. He cruised for a while, but finally settled in New Orleans.

His first occupation was as roller boy in the printing office of William McKean corner of Camp and Common streets, now the site of Lyons' drug building. While bo engaged the two printers, Geo. W. Kendall and F. A.

Lumsden, started a newspaper, which they decided to call the Picayune. They had a small office on Gravier street, wmcn was nttea in a most primitive style. Its condition was well displayed in the semi-centennial edition of the Picayune published in 1887, in which the brst paper was reproduced. The compositors' cases were, in this birthplace of the paper, on old dry goods boxes. But Messrs.

Lumsden and Kendall had no press. Their forms were set up and locked before arrangements were made for a press. Finally negotiations were completed whereby George Short, for a consideration, offered the loan and use of a press. Then the forms were brought to the office where young Bonzano was employed, and Mr. Kendall worked off the first edition in person.

As roller boy. Max Bonzano volunteered to roll for the man who became famous as one of the most progressive journalists of his time. Working several years in a printing office gave Bonzano excellent opportunities for mastering the English language. He left it therefore and entered a drug store as an apprentice and devoted himself to the study of chemistry and pharmacy. He was later established as an apothecary and at the same time studied medicine.

In 1843 he entered the charity hospital as resident student. After graduating he was elected a visiting physician, the duties of which he performed until 1848, when he was appointed melter and refiner of the mint, vice Prof. J. L. liiddell.

In this place he continued np to the war. Up to that event he had never given thought to politics, being absorbed in his occupations. The secession and the war were a surprise to him, they having always appeared to be an impossibility notwithstanding the preliminary warning clouds which portended such a calamity. Feeling that his allegiance and duty bound him to the United States, Lr. Bonzano soon after the breaking out of the war left for the north where he remained until the capture of New Orleans when he returned to the city, arriving back on the 17th of June, 1862.

On the recommendation of Secretary of the Treasury Chase he took charge of the mint and recovered and restored the machinery and implements which had been more or less scattered by loans made to various gun factories, and by the occupation ot the building by the Twelfth Maine Regiment of Volunteers. Having accomplished the greater part of this woric and desirous of being active and lending a helping hand to the restoration of the union he accepted the post of acting lighthouse engineer and inspector, in which service he remained until 1872, retaining charge of the mint also. In the early days of Jane, 1S83, the first union meeting in the south was held at Lyceum Hall, now the city hall. Dr. Bonzano was elected by acclamation as its president, and was by this made chairman of the first mass meeting of union sympathizers in any southern state.

When, as commander-in-chief of the army of the United States, President Abraham Lincoln issued the proclamation of emancipation an almost inextricable confusion was -brought about in Louisiana. The freeing of the negroes could apply only to the portion of the country held by the enemy, while in those sections conquered by the federals they remained slaves. To solve this Gordian knot an election of delegates to a convention of the people was ordered by General N. P. Banks, com-jnander of the department.

Dr. Bonzano was elected a memberxf that convention. E. H. Dare 11 wot elected its president and was conducted to tbe chair by Judge Rufus K.

Howell, Christian Roselius and Dr. M. F. Bonzano. they having been his competitors for the chair, who had received the highest number of votes.

On the organization of the convention Bonzano was appointed chairman of the committee on emancipation, and as such wrote the ordinance of emancipation for Louisiana, which was carried by an overwhelming majority, only five votes against it being cast. While the convention was yet in session he was selected a member of the Baltimore nominating convention with Cuthbert Bullitt, Judge Atocha and others, who voted for Lincoln and Johnson as the candidates of the Republican party. In the fall of that year a general election was ordered by the convention and Dr. Bonzano was chosen member of congress from tbe First district. The committee on elections of the house of representatives, whose chairman was the now well known Senator H.

L. Dawes of Massachusetts, reported in his favor but he was not admitted to his seat by reason of an assault with a penknife, committed by the late A. P. Field (attorney general of this state) on tbe Hon. D.

Kelley of Pennsylvania, which caused great excitement not only in Washington but all over tbe country, and the result of which was to exclude from congress the southern members. Notwithstanding the failure of the house of representatives to adopt the report of their committee. Dr. Bonzano was recognized as the representative of not alone his district but of the entire state. He used his influence to soften the unfriendly sentiment against the state and to alleviate as far as possible the suii'erings of the imprisoned southerners, all of whom he still considered as friends, and many were released from the military prisons thronirh nia Affirvrta an will ha bered oy the participants.

A.DOUE tnis tune he was appointed By President Lincoln commissioner of the direct tax for Louisiana, which he resigned after the organization of the commission. In 1868 he was nominated by President Grant as supervisor of internal revenue in place of Mr. Creecy, an appointment -against which he pro tested as being entirely unfitted for it, whereupon his name-was withdrawn. In 1873 he was chairman of the Republican electoral college of Louisiana. AUCTION SALES.

By the special request of President Grant, he accepted the position of surveyor general in place of E.

W. Foster, which he retained until 1874, when he was appointed superintendent of the mint.

had taken refuge from "the wrath to oome" in the United states custom-nouse. He was rescued from hi a perilous position by tbe arrival of United States troops under General Brooke. Parleys and negotiations ensued and Kellogg consented to be guided in his future official acts by an "advisory board," con-iatinir of two reDresentatives from each party and an umpire to be elected by eacn central state committee, xne Democrats promptly elected E. A. Burke and Ex-Governor A.

Voorhies the Republicans elected S. B. Packard and B. F. Joubert.

Both parties nominated a great number of persons for the position of umpire and ft looked at one time as if an agreement of the parties was impossible. Finally the name of M. F. Bonzano was proposed and both parties elected him umpire by acclamation. The advisory board at once commenced its sessions, sending daily its conclusions and recommendations to the governor, who sanctioned them without exception.

E. A. Burke Boon resigned as a member of the board and was succeeded by E. Howard Mc-Caleb, who served until its final dissolution. Under this compromise peace was restored the fifioers for the ensuing election appointed with due regard to the interests of both parties and universally acknowledged impartiality.

The result of the election ushered in a new era in the history of Louisiana. A congressional committee, of whom Hon.Ii. LGibson, now senator, was chairman, in 1875 as a preliminary measure recommended the conversion of the mint into an assay oQice and this being done Superintendent Bonzano was appointed assayer in charge. In 1878 ample appropriations were made for the then proposed extension of silver coinage. Under this impetus the mint was restored.

'Dr. Bonzano was strongly supported for his former office at the head of it by the director of the mint. Mr. Linderman, but Secretary of the Treasury Sherman preferred to appoint the late Hon. Michael Hahn, reserving to Bonzano the privilege of selecting any office for himself and of naming all the other officers of the mint.

Hahn being an Intimate friend, Dr. Bonzano took the position of coiner and named Joseph Albrecht as assayer and the late Samuel L. Weeks as melter and refiner. During the epidemio of 1878 Weeks died of yellow fever and the doctor was requested by the director of the mint to name a suitable person for the position of melter and refiner. Unable to comply with the request he advised the selection of an man from some other mint.

The director was not successful in his search for a qualified man, so Dr. Bonzano offered to exchange the office of coiner for that of melter and refiner, leaving the coining department in complete and effective condition for the coinage of $10,000,000 a year. Mr. N. V.

Davis was appointed coiner and assumed his duties. In that year Superintendent Hahn was removed and Ex-Governor H. S. Foote of Mississippi was appointed as his successor. Foote died in 1880 and Bonzano was again offered the superin tendency, but declined it, preferring a working department as more oongenial to his tastes, but recommended the selection of Coiner Davis for the office.

Davis was appointed and girformed his duties until 1883, when r. A. W. Smythe was appointed. Dr.

Bonzano continued his services under the government until 1883, when he was retired. In that year he accepted the nomination by the Republican party of state treasurer against E. Aw Burke, but Bnrke arot the office. On the declaration of the result of the election he retired to his present abode, where he says he hopes to live the terminating years of his career, enjoying his otium cum dignitate. Dr.

-Bonzano never married, and he lives a bachelor. His home was purchased in 1878 from the estate of Mrs. Lombard, and to it he gave the name of "Hermitage." It fronts on the river, is a few yards from the national ceme tery, and about a mile from the limits of Orleans parish. The ground upon which tne Jackson Monument rests is rented bv him. The mansion on his own nlace is historicallv remarkable for having been the headquarters of General Jackson during the Dattieol New Orleans, and also for having been the temnorarr stopninir place of the Marquis de Lafayette when he visited this city, in April, 1825.

The doctor has restored the mansion and surroundinKS to their former condition, and has kept pace with all the ani cultural improvements for making a country home attractive and comfortable. But besides these he has erected a long brick building, which is his office, his laboratory and scientiho workhouse. Here are the latest inventions of the day, the phonograph, the typewriter, the self-register ing thermometer, telegraphio connec tion with the city ana other marvels of comfort and ingenuity. On the shelves of one room is a complete chemical oat-fit, on those of. another is a splendid collection of classical and scientific writers.

Scattered about are objects of absorbing interest. Here is a cannon ball from the Chalmette battle field. Here is a ball from a gun aboard the ships which fired on the barracks above during the last war. In one corner is a collection of blade, among which are a dress sword of the kind worn by a federal surgeon in the war, andacutlass taken from the steamer ebb after she had been fired and deserted. In the doctor's desks are papers which had a most important bearing npon the history of the timer and documents in the handwriting of such men as Farragut, Lincoln, Johnson and Grant, showing the confidence of such men in him.

He has not ceased to take an interest in the progress of science, and now devotes his whole time to his wonted; stndies in the laboratory, enabling him to pass his remaining years in tranquil enjoyment and at peaoe with all the world. j- Tis BOZODONT the whole world tries.
