The Spers do no make eneugh smselves, still less their fami- Poon such meagre wages many of m must be deprived of even the neces- saries of life. Where aman has a family, however small, he makes scarcely more than enough to buy feod. Then there are the rent and clothing and medicines. It is, literally, the barest living from hand to mouth. Where the family is large the hardship must, indeed, be great. It is difficult for one who receives a fair salary to conceive how $6 25 can be made to sub- serve all the necessities of a household. It does not. The family must suffer. It is a continual fight with the gaunt wolf of want. There are homes in St. Louis, though the heads of them work from dawn to dusk, that are as bare as hovels, and where pinching hun- ger is frequently felt. It is against these starvation wages that the coopers are fight- ing. The hod-carriers make $2 25 and $2 50, ample to support them. Why should coopers be paid less than hod-carriers? The labor requires more skill. It requires ten hours a day. There is no time to make anything by extra work. Nature cannot stand more than ten hours of severe work a day. There-is no hope for the coopers but by a raise of wages, and, in spite of any particular interests in- volved, fair-minded people must hope for their success. —E———— es BLOOD IN POLITICS—FOREIGN AND AMERICAN IDEAS. Mr. George William Curtis, editor of Harper’s Weekly, writes in the latest issue of that journal the following: The St. ifuis Post- DISPATCH is a Democratic paper, which says: It the Republicans mean to inaugurate Gen. Grant as they inaugurated Mr. Haves, the Dewocrats, in nominating their oandidate, must ask a new question and exact a new qual- ification. The old one was, Wil! he be elected? The new one must be, Will he, if elected, be inaugurated? . The Democratic candidate must be a man who, radically unlike Mr. Tilden, is neither without nor afraid of blood. He must be a man who will attend to his own inauguration, if elected, even though blood gbould be shed. Is Mr. Tilden that man? This is not American talk. Inthis country, where we live under a government of laws, and where every wrony, however great, is remediable by law, we do not enter upon elections boast- ing ot comparative fearsof blood. The man who talks in this vein is, in the fullest and worst sense, either a foreigner by birth and tradition, or a foreigner in intelligence. Ue knows neither America nor Americans. A political reversein this country is not followed Dy insurrection and barricades. But who said it was, or should be? It is not a political ‘‘reverse,’’ but a poli- tical revolution and subversion, a complete overthrow of liberty, that is in question. The question shall not be falsified. No sane or patriotic American will talk or think of bloodshed no matter how great the ‘‘nolitical reverse’’ may have been. Butno American can be either sane or patriotic who does not see the vital difference be- tween a political reverse or revolution within and through the law and an utter revo- lution, violation and subversion of all lavs and precedent themselves. But this is precisely the difference between all the elections that ever occurred before 1876 and the infamous crimes of that year. Weare anxious to preserve peace and order. We cherish the hope that brutal physical in force will never again be appealed to this country. We are profoundly solicitous that blood should never again preserve this Government. be shed to But it will never do, not even for Mr. George Wm. Curtis, to pooh-pooh the very thought of blood. Still less willit do to dispose of this by the cheap and commonplace remark that it is the foreign idea of a foreigner by birth. On the contrary, it is a thoroughly Amer- ican idea. It is the idea of Patrick Henry: ‘‘Resist- ance to tyranny is obedierce to God.”’ __ It is the idea which alone made the sepa- ration of the colonies and the foundation of this Republic possible. It is the idea that led to the war of 1814, which was necessary to complete American independence and liberty. It is the idea which alone preserved the Union in 1861. Itis the idea without which this Union would 1776, without which it would certainly have been destroyed either in 1814 or 1861. It is the great idea that liberty and man- not have been founded in hood, self-government and national inde- pendence must and shall be preserved at the cost of bloodif need be. | If Harper’s Weekly considers this the foreign idea of a foreigner we simply say that but for this idea it would not be pub- lished to-day in a republic and under a gov- ernment still republican in form. There is nowhere human liberty or po- litical freedom in the world, however lim- ited even, that has not been purchased by blood. , It is the doctrine of Mr. George Wm. Curtis and Harper’s Weekly that is really and radically un-American and foreign. It is the doctrine that a people must sub- mit to be governed without their consent and against their will. This is a foreign idea. It is the doctrine that the people shall not govern themselves, but be governed by those they have not chosen for that pur- pose. This is a foreign idea. It is the doctrine that the people must tamely submit, bear wrong and injustice, frauds and crimes, the violation of law and Constitution, the wholesale perjury of their Supreme Judges, the defiance of their clear- ly-expressed will, the loss of their fr2edom tr. » a Z ie .

Itis not to be left mber of Bobadils, or General Booms, nbastes Furiosos. It is left to the Congres » United States. That, and that only, is the authority to ascertain who is elected. Yes, and Congress, charged with that duty, solemnly declared, through its House of Representatives, to the whole country, that R. B. Hayes was never elected by either the people, the States or the electors, but placed into the White House by “fraud first triumphant in American history,’’ to use the language of Charles Francis Adams. The most rémarkable political event in our history ufter the Declaration of Independence and the emancipation of the slaves was the Congressional settiement of the disputed elec- tion of 1876. It was an event unprecedented in the history of republics, and it was the most triumpbant vindication of popular govern- ment. So it was, in one sense—through the un- precedented patriotism of the large major- ity of Americans—Democrats, who, for the sake of peace, submitted to the great crime against self-government. But they will never do it again. This Republic will be preserved even Republican who ready and subvert against rebels are it to It is worth preserving even if it should cost a eager to perpetuate themselves in power. little more blood than it has already cost. If the Democrats elect the President next year and Grant or Sherman should attempt to put himself into the White House by force the very life and existence of the Re- public will demand a little blood. And there will be thousand,’’ but more than one million of not *fone hundred liberty-loving Americans to offer it. THE Globe-Democrat is one of the con- spicuous institutions of St. Louis, and yet, strange to say,it is doing all within its power to drive trade away from St. Louis. It has an unbounded contempt for Texas. It has adopted the sentiments of Sheridan, who said that if he owned hell and Texas he would rent out Texas and live in hell. Little Mac goes even further than little Phil. He loses no occasion for describ- ing Texas as a land where lawlessness reigns, where the pistol and knife are su- preme, and where there is safety for neither life nor property. The Grant organ employs a correspondent, who daily clips from the Galveston News the reports of old crimes committed, or rumored to have been com- mitted, in the these stale accounts are rewritten in a sen- pioneer settlements, and sational and exaggerated style, and tele- graphed to St. Louis for the purpose of misrepresenting a people who have aright to look to St. Louis as a friend, not a brutal enemy. Very naturally, the people of Texas are tired of this systematic vilification, and seriously threaten to withdraw their patron- age from our merchants. Newspapers all over the State are nunciation of a paper that will deliberately manufacture a false public opinion in re- unmeasured in their de- gard to a State which is comparatively as peaceful as any inthe Union. The follow- ing extract from the Denison Daily Herald, one of the most influential papers in North- ern Texas, is a sample of the recent utter- ances of the Texas press: We notice with pleasure that several of our contemporaries take the same stand as the Herald doesin regard to urging Texas mer chants to withdraw their patrenage from St. Louis until the leading paper of that city dis- continues its misrepresentations of Texas. Kansas City and Chicago are both better mar- kets, and far more deserving of Texas patron- age. OuR esteemed contemporary, the PosT-DISs- PATCH, casts Presidential horoscopes with much coolness and absoluteness. Unlike most prophéts. it has great honor initsown country. It is positive, direct, and alwaysto the point. No uncertain sound comes out from it. Itis foremostin many a forward movement and lastin many a retreat; but it cannot carry Bayard in Missouri, no matter whatever else may happen, if Bayard keeps steadily to the road he has been consistently traveling for the past several years.—[Sedalia Democrat. There a general mistake among our rural brethren about this jour- nal. It may be proper to state that we have not entered into contract to put Mr. Bay- ard or anybody else into the White House. Nor have we ever said that he would be the next President. What we did say and still say is that there is to-day no man in the Democratic party whose lofty char- acter, perfect integrity and great reputation would secure so many semi-independent, non-partisan votes and who would make a purer President than Mr. Bayard. But both he and we will survive the election of any seems to be other person. SPIRIT OF THE PRESS. Cincinnati Eaquirer (Dem.): John Sherman is a mighty shrewd politician, but it will be the finest game in politics he ever played if he suc- ceeds incarrying Maine for the Republicans, and at the same time kills off Blaine. Bun that is what he has gone there to do. N.O. Times (Ind.): Old Bob Toombs says that the conscript actandtoo much West Poirt were the causes which killed the Confederacy. Oh, how modest! Was it not because the aged Robert was not elected President at Montgom- ery? Hide your blushes and say yes. You know you think so. New York Times (Rep.): While Senator Chandler is not precisely the kind of person which Democratic papers describe him to be, he is certainly not the type of candidate likely to secure the majority of a Republican Nation- al Convention which had faith in the ability of the party to elect the next President of the United States. Baltimore Gazette (Dem.): It seems the par- ty managers at Washington and OUnarley Fos- ter have already fallen out ona policy. Char- ley wantsto do the fighting on the money question, but Hubbell keeps pouring the other sort of speeches, On the political issues, into the State. Givethem rope enough. They will hang themselves either way. Cincinnati Gazette (Rep.): The principal opening speeches of the Ohio campaign will be made at different points by Foster, Garfield, Senator Oglesby, of Illinois, and Judge Taft. Mr. Blaine has selected Bellaire as the place for his opening speech, and Secretary Sherman will be first heard at Steubenville. There will be music in the air after August 20. New York Graphic (Rep.): Senator Bayard tore starting for Burope talked some non- sense toa reporter. He regarded the extra | session as having done a great deal for human | liberty. This is sheer rubbish coming from Mr. Bayard or trom anybody else. Liberty bas never been endangered in this country, and tor the very good reason that if there were conspirators against liberty anxious to stamp it out there are no agencies to their hand to effect their nefarious design.

Newport Summer Residents Dancing on the Deck of His Flagship. The Flash of Diamonds and Bright Eyes— Music and the Mazy Waltz— Beauty and Hospitality. [From the New York Herald. ] NEWPORT, R.1I., July 15.—A grand ball was given by Admiral Peyron, ofthe French Navy, on board the flagship this afternoon, to M. Outrey, the French Minister, and to the many friends he has found while in the Rhode Island waters. Theinvitations were confined exclu- sively to the summer residents. The guests were taken on board the ship’s boats at the ferry wharf, Captain Ramsay, ofthe Torpedo Station ,paving kindly placed the station’s ship at the disposal of the visitors. Carriage after carriage rolled down the wharf, and their oo- cupants were soon on board and in a short time were rowed to the flagship in the outer harbor. The Admiral’s first officer, Lieutenant Henry do Freycinet, aspirant de marine, was at the lana- ing to attend to the embarkation, and he per- tormed his dutyin avery pleasing manner. Upon arriving on board the ship, the guests were cordially welcomed by Admiral Peyron and his officers, who were in full uniform, and who cordially welcomed their new-found friends. Amongthe early guests were M. Out- rey,tbe French Minister, and Mme. Outrey, who were accompanied by their children. The Admiral’s parge was placed at their disposal. Other ests included Baron Mayr, the Austrian Minister; M. De Larcelle and Mr, Suzannett, of the French Legation; Rev. and Mrs.H.C. Potter, Miss Catharine L. Wolte, Mrs. T.58. Gibbs, Mr. George F. Jones and wife, Mrs. James P. Kernochan, Mr. and Mrs. Mabian Sands, Mrs. ¥F.S. G. Hauteville, Mrs. Levi P. Morton, Mr. Sydney J. Colford, Mr. Ward McAllister, Mrs. William Edgar, Mr. Carroll Bryce, Mr. J.N. A. Griswold, Mr. Wil- jiam Post, the Misses Gibbs, Kernochan, Rus- sell, Perkins, ,Ogstin, Whiting, Jones and Edgar, and Mr. Walter Kane and wife, all from New York; Mrs. Atberton Blight, of Philadel- phia; Mr. T. F. Cushing and Mrs. Perkins, Boston, and Gen. H.R. Jackson, U. 8S. A.; Maj. MacMurray, U.S. A.; Col. Montgomery, U.3s.A., and many others. DANCING ON DBCK. The decorations were very fine. The decks were canopied With canvas, and in the sterna large room was set apart for those who desired to see the dancing and not indulge in the terp- sichorean maze. Flags of many nations were tastefully arranged; but the most conspicu- ousof them ail wasthe stars and _ stripes, which had the post of honor, and it was en- twined with the national emblemof France. Forward the seamen in snow white clothes were assembled and they created no littie merriment by reaping the benetit of the music and by showing to the guests that they under- stooa all the fashionable dances. The scene from the poop deck was a very animated one. The decks were throngeda with handsome la- dies, eleguntly attired, who had no difliculty in finding partners for dancing. The bright guns, polished steel and the general neatness ot everything on board the ship attracted gen- eral attention. This elevated position was soon invaded by a large number ot ladies and gentiemen who desired to see as well as to be seen. The officers were olserved to be very attentive to their guests and they wereon hand to carry out the pleasing programme which had been arranged. A PLEASING SCENE. The full band attached to the ship played lively airs, the opening dance being a polka, in which the Admiral, with Mme. Outrey, par- ticipated. The Admiral was as lively and jolly as his young subordinates. Strains of low, sweet music, coupled with the whistle of the boatswain, announced the arrival of additional gucsts long after the majority had almost made up their minds totaxe their d@parture. The happy company promenaded underneath the canopy of flags, and the ladies appeared to have no difficultv to talk tothe officers in French. The fragrance trom beautiful flowers and plants rose like incense offered to the sbrine of Beauty, and conspired to make the occasion one of rare enjoyment. The flash ot diamonds alongside of handsome uniforms made a pleasing contrast. The officers smiled as though they had never beard ot war or car- nege. so devoted were they to their lady friends. The Admiral was very busy in making up the setsand in doing all that he could to make everything pass off smoothly, and it was the unanimous opinion of all present that he succeeded. CLOSING FESTIVITIES. The Admiral’s cabin was opened for special guests, and the tabie in his dining-room was brilliant with cut glass and silverware. It was set with choice flowers and the delicacies of the season. A grand lunch was served on deck, and — popping of friendly corks was frequent- ly heard. ‘he festivities were reluctantly brought to aclose about 7 o’clock. Many of the ladies lingered to indulge in an old-fash- ioned cotilion, and it was nearly twilight be- fore all had taken their departure. The band played ‘‘Auld Lang Syne,’’ and the boats slowly leftthe ship. The ladies waved:their handkerchiets, and this acknowledgment of good will was ee reciprocated by the officers, who watched their guests until they had taken their departure and were out of sight. —— ae - — A Religious Daily Should Not Steal.

In the House of Commons on the evening of the 4th inst., Mr. Chaplin, onthe motion for going into Committe of Supply, rose to move: **That an humble address be presented to Her Majesty, praying Her Majesty that she will be graciously pleased to appoint a Royal Com- mission to inquire into the depressed condi- tion of the agricultural interest and the causes to which it is owing, whether those causes are ol a temporary or of a permanent character, and how tar they have been created or can be rem- edied by legislation.*"’ He by no means denied that distress bad on former occasions existed, but it was nothing sO severe as this, and as an authority on this point he referred to a statement by Lord Beaconsfield recently, that ‘‘though he could recall several periods of suffering, none of them had ever equaled the present.’’ Could we look without concern upon the farms va- cant in England and the withdrawal of capital from the business which now ceased to pay? What was the cause of the distress in Scot- land, where north and south the landed inter- est was affected? The distress was undoubt- edly not confined to agriculture, and, but for two reasons, he should have embraced trade generally in his reference. First, many other honorable Members were more competent to deal with the subject; next, he doubted whether any commission could within reason- able time grapple with so enormous a ques- tion. There were many people who thought that this unfortunate state of affairs was due in a great neasure to our pursuance of free trade without reciprocity, but he should be sorry to rashly commit bimself to their views. FOOD EXPORTATION FROM THE UNITBD STATES. At the same time be could not shut his eyes to the fact that the assurances andthe predic- tions of Mr. Cobden and other men had not been fulfilled. The cireumstances of to-day are entirely altered from those under which free trade was adopted. It was muintained that other conntries would follow our example,see- ing the benefits we derived, but they had not; andthen it was predicted by Mr. Bright that no country produced more foed than was necessa- ry forits own wants,and thatthere was noth- ing ip the circumstances of any for- eign nation which could make it - formidable rival to the agriculture of this country. To show that the latter asser- tion had been falsified by the event figures were quotea by the honorable gentleman as to tood expcrtation from the United States. He quoted this not to advocate protection, but to show bow widely the promise and the performance had ciffered, and thatit canrzjot be wondered at if doubts bave arisen aS to the wisdom of our any longer pursuing a policy whichis not free trade at all, but which is only free trade under restrictions, and restrictions ef which all the advantage goes to the foreigner and none to us. Referring to the programme of remedies by the Farmers’ Alliance, he said that he did not be- lieve if adopted in its entirety it would be avail- able as a substantial remedy. The source of the distress was that farming had ceased to be profitable. UNPRECEDENTED AGRICULTURAL DEPRESSION. The real and sole cause ot the present agri- cultural depression was the bad yieldand the bad prices obtainable for produce. They had of late been growing less corn and receiving less money for it, as well as for meat, wool, cheese and for nearly every farming commod- ity. Thelossin consequence was last season alone estimated at £58,000,000 ($290,000,- 000). The course of the seasons they could not control, but with regard to the prices it was pertectly clear to what they were owing, and how fur they were likely to be of a permanent or passing character. Sooner or later every one would be compelled to recognize that upon the answer they received to the cause or the fuilure in prices the failure of the agriculture of the United Kingdom more or less depended. The produetion of fvod in England would continue fer just solong a time as continued to ay the producer, and how long that would be de- pended upon the cost of procucing the food and the return it yielded. If the prices lately received continued to prevailthbe duration of agriculture in England must and could only be short. He did not believein the posstbility of ary material reduction in the cost ot produc- tion unlessit be by reducing the rents; but even supposing the whole of the rents could be remitted, the cost of production in bad seasons would be greater than the return. Ili the cost ot production could not be reduced, it was ob- vious they had only to look to the prices which they had to receive for the produce, and these prices would be governed not by the market at home, but by the market abroad, viz., in America. AMERICA TO SETTLE THE PRICE FOOD. What they really wanted to arrive at was, what was the least price at which American food, including cost of treight and transport. OF ENGLISH | could be supplied here wit» a profit to theim porter? That was the price they would inthe future have to adept as their own. Ifit were one which would fairly remu- nerate the English producer all well and good, and the present depression would pass away. If on the other hand it be found that America could supply food at a price cheaper than they could produce it, he did not know how it was possible for them to resist the statement that English agriculture must pass away unless the country teok steps to prevent It would be nothing less than the ruin of country, for agriculture was largest national industry. not a question ot class, but a national question of the greatest and largestimportance. It was certain that there would be no harvest at all unless it paid to produce it. How far that was likely to be, depended upon whether America could under- sell them in food in future in their own coun- try. He admitted that there was much specu- lation in any opinion formed on the point, but it was significant that in 1875 330 head ot cattie wereimported from America, 1,100 in 1876, 30,000 in 1877, 68,000 in 1878, and he found thatthe importation had reached 20,000 dur- ing the first five months—and they winter months—of the present year, notwithstanding the order in Council that allcattle were to be slaughtered at the port of debarkation. |Op- position cheers.| Itwas only right that he should ask for the speedy removal of all re- strictions and taxes Which were at present im- posed onthe productions of food at home. WHY THOSE ENORMOUS IMPORTS FROM AMERICA? Mr. Jobn Bright said: Sir, I cannot expect that any observations I may make Can be of as much interest as those which have fallen from the honorable gentleman who has just sat down, but I can assure the House thatlI shall not gointo any question of manufactnre or particular concern with which I myself may be engaged. If honorable members of this House connected with the various trades of the coun- try occupy three-quarters of an hour in dis- cussing their own trades [**Oh, ob,’’ and cheers! I do not know how Parliament will pro ceed with ite legislative tunctions with any rapidity or any success. The member for Lin coinshire has spoken on the influence of American produce upon English produce. He says the English produce decided the market, but that the produce from the United States, or it may be trom the Dominion of Canada, will henceforth fix the market in this country, and there is a great deal of truth in that. But let this Commission inguire,if it can,bow it comes that the landlords of this country and the farmers are not only alarmed, but is terror at the produce in corn and cattle that has to be brought 4,000 or 5,000 miles from the other side of the Atlantic. This is a question,I think, that they may fairly examine [cheers], and I confess that lam not sure that the statements made have been extravagant or exaggerated. I have met, within the last two or three weeks, two gentlemen very intimately connected with these matters in the United States, and I have been very much startled by some facts which they have related to me. The land that is being occupied in Minnesota, in the United States, and within the Dominion of Canada is of mag- nificent quality, Iam told, for the production of wheat. Liverpool, at this moment, is as near to these farms as New York was a short time ago. 1S THIS A CONVERSATION WITH VANDERBILT? The gentleman I spoke to the other day was chairman of one of the most prosperous and best managed railways in America, and he said that the change that had taken place in the cost of transportation had been astonishing to him, and it must be astonishing to everybody who looks intoit. I know there are some peo- ple who do not like to hear these things. A farmer who was very much troubled and dis- tressed on the srbject, d. ‘*Well, you know, I wish that cursed country had never been discocered.’’ |Laughter. |} fact is that the country has been discovered, although they are now to find out where the dis- coverer was/;uried. But Columbus lived and discovered 4merica, and from being peopled by savages’the country now has nearly fifty millions of our own English-speaking ple en the northern continent, and it will eoraaee in the course of th a of. 7” w a @ pres y S . ~ hee te * De tee RIS ea ar te 4 = ,f ~ 7 oe €.. c 7 oo Stee Fs ~ TS Ax er ed Se - tt 4 5 EDS RE eee PE Ss FUG, A558 4 - 4 z e y estern fates bad been so much effect on land near them what will be the effect on land in this country?

When they have 100,000,000 of population they will have paid their debt; thefrtaxes will be ata minimum; they take almost no army and no navy, as we bave in Europe; they have no ‘‘spirited foreign policy’’—{laaghter|— taxes, in p rtion to their ulation, will grow less and less; and how Engiand and Eu- rope will stand the com tion of America in regard to the policy of European nations with ate to armaments an taxes, anybody might try to imagine it, but I wili not try to describe it. There are farmersin America, as you know, who bave no rent, no tithes, no poor-rate. You have all these. With you labor has risen. Labor is very ear in America. You are giad that the laborers are well paid; they will have to ve still better paid. You complain of the eia- cation rate and the schools. The effect ua- der the present state of things must be to drive the educated and spirited young men from the country into the towns or emigrate. These are matters which I trust this couus- sion and the House will wellconsider. Your laws as they now are would make the Jaborer’s condition perpetual. In America, a3 a poct has expressed it, ‘‘They till the land who own the land they till.’’ That is the great differ ence between theland und its cultivatien in America and thé iand and its cultivation in this country. Now, 1 would ask the honorable gentleme: opposite not to he afraid of these questions and of the commission. secently I had a conversation with Sir William Ingles, who was member tor Somersetshire, and he did not allow me to tell him, but I may tell you, that I believe it would increase the price of land all over the country if you would abolish allthe ancient and stupid and mis- chievous legislation by which it is embarrass- ed in every step youtake in dealing with the Jland. Let us have an inguiry, but ict us have it wisely and honestly conducted. You can not escape it; but if you meetit boldly it will be no morethana spectre. But break down the monopoly which damages the labor on farms and causes it to disappear and pauper- ize the labor whichremains. Out of what re- mains when you have broken down the mon- opoly there will arise a fairer prospect, and though it is net possible that I shall live to see it a time wil) come when you will have homes of comfort and independence throughout tne land of England, which qill attest forever the wisdom and blessedness of the new policy you have adopted. {Loud cheers. | SAD DROWNING ACCIDENT. Four Lives Lost by the Sweeping Away of a Carriage at a Ford. [From the Sioux Falls (Minn.) Pantagraph. } One ot the most distressing accidents that this section has ever known occurred at four o’clock last Monday afternoon, at Thorson Lee’s sandhill crossing of the Split Rock,onthe road from Sioux Falls to Valley Springs, ten miles from here and one mile above Brandon station, resulting in the drowning of Ole Thompson and wite, from Red Wing,Minn.,and Mrs. E. K. Lee and child, from Sioux Falls. Last week Mr. and Mrs. Thompson aud their daughter Louisa drove here ina covered car- riage, with a splendid team belonging to them, to visit Mr. and Mrs. E. K. Lee, the two ladies being sisters. Last Saturday the two couples with their twochildren drove to Beaver Creek Station, to visit Mrs. Ti.o npson’s mother and sister. On Monday they returned, and upon driving into the Split Rock at the point above mentioned, the current carried the carriage from the ford, the creek having been inordin- ately swollen by Saturday's rain, and the occu- pants of the vehicle were swepttrom it and down the stream. Mr. and Mrs. Thompson and Mrs. Lee and her child were drowned. r. succeeded in swimming ashore, the lust he saw of his wife being when she called to him, **‘Lee, for God’s sake, save me!’’ The borses had been raised by Mr. Thompson and petted by Miss Louisa, and as she was be- ing carried down stream behind the team, cry- ing out for help, one of the animals, appearing to unde stand the call, struggl d over tointer cept her, twisting his head around sothat she caught against his neck, around which she twined her arm, bolding on until her deliverer sank. The creek was running away Outside its banks, and the top of one of the willows grow- ing on the margin ofthe stream was swaying its trail top slightly above the flood, Hold of this Miss Thompson caught, which kept her from being car- ried further down the stream, butthe Dranch afforded no support, and the current at each successive roll submerged her. She could not long have endured this, but tortunately there wasabrave man named George C. Ellis, of Winslow, Ul., who with others bad camped by the creek, waiting for the freshet to run down. He sawher andat the riskof himself being carried away swam out and rescued ber. He also for an instant saw the foot of Mrs. Lee’s baby inthe water, and he dived under the spot and recovered thechild, which was still barely aiive when taken ashore, butit could not be rosurcitated, and died in bis arms. — — —e —_——__—_— —_- — Mr. Evarts’ New Hat.

He sent an order to a New York hatter to ‘‘build’’ him a hat, giving no particular directions, ex- cept to put him up one that would please the President's wife. It came in due season. It was atwo-ounce, light felt slouch hat. Smallin brim and low in crown.

[From the Kingston (N. Y.) Freeman.| While a gentleman was in an insurance office opposite Music Hall, cn Fair street, on Satur- day, he was very much annoyed by the bark- ing of a dog some distance in the rear of the office, and wishing to puta stopto the howl- ing of the canine, he picked up what he thougbt were several large pieces ot stone lving intbé corner of the room, and hurled them at the animal, with a very good result. Afew minutes afterward one of the proprietors came in, and upon looking around the room, inquired in a frantic tone if anv one had seen the gold specimens that he had put awayin‘‘thatere corner,’’ pointing to the corner where the gentleman found his rocks to throw ut the dog. Great was the wrath of the aforesaid proprietor, and verv great was the consternation of the youth to find that he had actually been throwing specimens of goid from the Hussey Hill mine, the great Mombac- cus gold mine, and the Steenykill Consoli- dated Company’s mine, to the extent in value ef an unknewn quantity, but which in his ex- cited imagination readily made itself thou- sands ot dollars. ee Editorial Disadvantages. [From the New York Graphic. ] Editors are seldom heard discussing the pro- priety of taking summer vacations and leaving their congregations. Editors must preach every day. Editors must stay and ‘‘stick it out.’’ Editors can’t move their studios tothe mountains or breezy seaside. Editors must get their inspiration at the same old desk the year round, the desk which looks out on a patch of brick wall ten feet opposite an an iron shutter. Newspapers never close their pul- pits. Wouldn’t it be ridiculous to propose va- cating a newspaper pulpit fortwo or three months during the warm season, and sending the staff to Europe or Long Branch to cure their bronchitis? Newspaper men are like cooks. They must broil at the furnace the yearround. Folks can’t do without their morning chops, coffee and paper. — — FOREIGN SCIENTIFIC NOTES.

She Attempts Suicide, but is Saved by the Heroism of Young Washburne. {[Cor. of Chicago Inter-Ocean. } New Yorsk, July 14.—At a lunch party -given by a society belle the other day, plenty -of light gossip was indulged in, and, as it was -not malicious in its nature,some of the stories ‘told will bear repeating. For instance, a cer- tain young lady, the daughter of a railroad magnate, and who by the — of experience could talk of LA GRANDE PASSION, gave her views of love as indulged in by mem- bers of the dramatic profession, and in speaking of actresses in particular, declared they were divided in two classes—those too much in love with themselves to be carried away by an affection for else; as Mary Anderson, Modjeska (and touching on the musical profession), Miss Kellogg, and Miss Thursby; or were so com- pletely carried away by the sentiment that they defied the proprieties and the whesele world in their exhibition of the same, like Patti, Ambre, and three or four actresses too near to be mentioned. As to loving like ordi- nary people,’’ continued the young oracle, **they will not do it.’’ Pressed fora fact to verify her argument, she proceeded to relate an instance that came under her observation, and that I give in her own words, shorn of sundry adjectives and exclamations common to enthusiastic eigh- teen COW ell, girls! you know when I was in Paris, we ‘jived.in a charming hotel, in a neighborhood where American and English ople congregate, and where the fascinating Nei son bad a suite of apartments, and dw elt like a duchesse. Such dressing you never saw; everything covered with the most costly lace, even to her underwear; silk stockings, embroidered to match her toilets bewitching boots with jeweled buttons, soe flowers in the greatest profusion. In her sitting room wasalarge French window; this was al- _. ways kept wreathed in vines and roses, and after making a stunning toilet, the fair Ade- laide would ensconce herself in it and present the passing public with A FASCINATING PICTURE. ‘‘Ofcourse Bird and I were crazy to get ac- quainted with her; but it was uphill work, for she did not care a snap for women, and took no pains to make friends of them. How- ever, we used to amusejourselves watching the unfortunate moths of the masculine gender, ‘and noting how, after a certain amount cf fluttering about this star candle, they went on with singed wings: but all the same, the va- cancies were soon filled. ‘*‘Miss Neilson is a terrible flirt; not one of the kind that indulges on the passe pour le temps principle, but from a morbid desire to see how infatuated amancan become over her. She used to say that until they got up to the verge of shooting themselves she wouid not give a stiaw for them; but to come to the oint, every once ina while she would fall Maameretels in love herself, and when she did you’d better believe there was a time of it. ‘*‘Everybody else was neglected and snubbed, even to the theater, and more than once she would break a professional engage- ment, at the last moment, to pass the evening with the adored at the time being. Once, in particular, she became 80 infatuated witha young man by the name of Angier that she was the talk of all Paris. ‘*He was a perfect Apollo in appearance, wealthy, witty and very fast.
