Detatis of the Failure of a Big Dry Goods : ouse. By Telegraph to the Post-Dispatch. NEw York, July 21.—The dry goods trade was Startled yesterday by the report of the failure of E. W. Holbrook & Co. of 51 Leonard street, one of the best known housesin the trade. The re- port was confirmed iater in the day by the official assignment of the firm, which was filed in the County Clerk’s office. The members of the firm, Edwin W. Holbrook, Edgar F. Grant and Ciar- ence D. Newell, made a general assignment tu Benjamin Dunning, one of the directors of the City Bank,giving preferences as follows: National City Bank, $30,000; Aaron H. Wellington. $18,195; Orlando M, Bogart & Co., $10,000; John Collins & Son, $9,017 32; total, $67,212 32; all confidential depts for borrowed money. The business was es- tablished many years ago in Boston as Clarke, Holbrook & Floyd. Mr. Clarke subsequently re- tired and in January, 1865, . THE FIRM was succeeded by Holbrook, Floyd & Co., Who in urh were succeeded by the present firm. Mr. E. Holbrook was the leading spirit in th firm. He owned the Grafton Mills at Grafton, Mass., and was president of the Springvale Mill Company, of Springvale, Me. The firm leased the Empire Mills at Troy and spent considerable money in machinery. They also have a branch store in Boston. Mr. Holbrvek had a high standing in the ary gouds trade. and much sympathy is expressed for him. He is one of the directors of the National City Bank, a director ot the Delaware, Lackawanna aud Western Railroad ponent mg and & prominent member of the Union League Club. From friends = Mr. Holvrook it was learned yesterday that e LIABILITIES WERE ABOUT $750,000, of which $550,000 was on notes, $130,000 for twherchandise and about $70,000 of contidential aebts, tue latter belug secured. The bulk of the in btedness is to banks, who held the firm’s , Which sold readily on the “street” at low ratesyas the firm was supposed to be worth from $250,000 to $500,000. The failure is attributed to logsea jn running the three cotton mills.in which the mepey sunk is believed to have been not far from $280,060. li is also said that Mr. Holbrook has made losses in stock speculations. Oue of the stories in circulation is to the effect that he had lost $500,000 in Wall street. ILLINOIS AFFAIRS. Mk Sickuess—A Missing Girl—Hetmrich- ofer’s Case—News Notes.

THE POOL FIXED. An Arrangement Among Ali Lines Leading Out of Chicago. By Telegraph to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YorRK, July 21.—The pool embracing all the roads East-bound out of Chicago which sup- ply business to the trunk lines was completed yesterday. It supercedes the old pool and in- cludes the three new lines—the Chicago and At- lantic, the Chicago, St. Louis and Pittsburg and the Nickle Plate. Itisto bein effeg{ from July 1, and extends for five years. Itis“Wivided into two parts,one for jive and theother for dead freight. Dressed meats are classed with the live freight. Thé contract was executed and signed by the representatives of the different lines. The ercentages in the division of business were left or Commissioner Fink to determine. If his awards are unsatisfactory to any of the lines ap- peals can be made and the questions settled by arbitration. A plan for pooling the business West-bound out of Boston was perfected. The Fitchburg and the New York were THE ONLY ROADS not represented, but no doubt was entertained that they would accept the agreement. The representatives of'the other lnes approved the lan. It was not fully executed. It is in effect rom July 1 and continues for an indefinite period. The award of percentages will be made by Com- missioner Fink. The Trunk Line Executive Com- mittee met with the other committees. In both pools money. settlements will be made monthly aud the business. will be distributed by joint agents. A meeting of the Joint Executive Com- mittee (passenger department) will be held jn this city next Tuesday. The principal subject for eonsideration will be the discontinuance of com- missions on business to the new differential fare ints and the applications of the various new ines for differential fares. A meeting of the freight department will pe held on Thursday.

No Change as Yet in the Status of the Telegraph Strike, Appearances Fayoring the Defeat of the Strikers’ Hopes—The Telegraph Service Giving*Fair Satisfaction—The Situation in New York; Cincinnati, Chicago and Else- where. No practica) change has ocqurred in the status of the strike, As usual In the opening days of such contests, both sid®s are at present confident of success, and each points so eonfidently to what seems satisfactory evidence of its claim, that the result is only the bewilderment of the searcher after the facts in the case The feature of the strike this morning is. the strong feeling which was present on ’Change against the Western Union Company’s managers for their second failure to supply the working force whieh they had promised. Yesterday the members of the Exchange, desirous of abstainin frome partisan feeling, were non-committal in their edpreamans ) opinion, but to-day they are out-spoken in their criticisms. They are not unmindful of the fact that the morning newspapers had excellent ser- vice last night, and they were ve anxious to Know whether they were no possessed of equal rights as _ the press. A review of the features of the’ contest between the company and the strikers results in the conclusion that, if the company’s _repre- sentatives are not over sanguine in thelr state- ments, the strikers will eventually have to suc- cumb. The service which the company has been able to obtain from operators outside of the broth- erhood has been an agreeable surprise to them, and a painful surprise.to the strikers, who to- day are not altogether so hopeful as they were. + On *Change. Although, as a general rule those who avail themselves of the telegraph, had no complaints to make of the service rendered at the Merchants’ Exchange, the opinion was generally and indig- nantly expressed that the telegraph companies were not. doingas well as they might and not nearly as well as they had promised, Complaints were very general and as a rule they were couched in language more notable for its strength than its elegance. The day before, the members of the Exchange felt that it became them to be patient and put up with such incon- venience as arose, hoping that as time went by the service would improve. To-day, however, a complete revulsion of feeling took place, and the failure of the Western Union Company to fulfill their promise to havea good working force on hand, was made the subject of very serious com- ment. Under ordinary circumstances it tukes about fifteen operators to do the business which the members of the Exchange pro- vide it with, and yesterday there were oniy three on hand, and they were very r operators at that. Not a single Chicago quotation was received during the entire morning. The reason for this was that the telegraph nyarket report operators of the Chicago Exchange had struck duty, but even if they had not done so it is difficult to under- stand how the force on hand could have done the work. The only points from which reports were | being received were New York and Milwaukee. but these were coming 80 irregularly that the merchants did not rely upon them. The feeling was very treely expressed that the Exchange could not and would not stand this sort of thing, and even the most conservative of the members held that the Exchange should de- mand a rebate an the Western Union’s bill for services rendered. This is the da that company sends in its. little change, and itis very probable that the account paiite-nete, stating that its payments refused , unless some rebate is made les the lack of ser- vice given during the past few days. The Ex- change has acontract by which they pay $145 a week far service rendered outside of that from Baltimore, for which they pay $40 a month, the whole amounting to about $660 a month and they think that for such a large amount of money they ought to able to enjoy uninterrupted communication with the other business centers. Delays of telegrams were also complained of, and the fact was cited that yester- day’s opening market at Detroit Was not received here until this morning, while other private dis- patches were six, tweive or eighteen hours late. J.C. Ewald, president of the Exchange, said that the members were universally of the opinion that they were not being properly treated in the matter of telegraphic service. They had not had a quotation placed on the Chicago black board,and, under this condition of affairs, trading was next to impossible. The trouble, however, was not so much with the centers of commerce as with the country places and the present strike has shown conclusively that Knowledge of what Is going on in the interior is as essential to the mefn- bers of the Exchange a8 of what is eg See at the centers. He did not know what the Exchange would do in regard to the strike but he did know that there was a strong feeling among the mem- bers that action should be taken and he had been strongly urged by many of them to call a meeting at which an expression of — on the subject could be had. He wasof the opinion, however, that the time for this lad not yet come, Mr. Archie Craig, one of the biggest operators in the provision line, and a maa who weighs care- fully every word he utters, was beard to say: “The Western Union people have said repeatediy that they have a large force of operators here. Now this is notso. The facts do not exist as they have stated. Commerce is impeded and some- thing should be done. 1 believe some such action” New York State to force the New York Central Ruilroad Company to transact its business in a manner satisfactory\to the business community.’’ Hearing the ticker sound Mr. Craig called up an operator standing by tw read: what it said, but. the operator aftey listening attentively, acknowledged that he was not able to read what was being sent, the op- erator at the other end evidently being anything but an expert, suvh as should be entrusted with commercial messages, Mr. Webb M. Samuels was yery outspoken. He said: ‘‘What do you suppose they mean by treat- ing us so? It’s a rascally plece of business. We merchants have not expressed ourselves on either side, and we expect the company to carry out its promises.” Mr. D. P. Grier said: ‘The remises of the Western Unton are untrue.” e used stronger language, but the idea is conveyed in what is published. Many others expressed themselves with great force ina similar direction, and alto- gether it was very evident that the excitement was so general and s0 great that - it cannot last long without breaking out in a public expression of some kind. ° ANOTHER MATTER which servea to increase the annoyanee of the ‘Change members was the fact that the Western Union Company had placed a couple of private olicemen on the floor of the Exchange. The of- elals were of the Opinion tnat they could pre- serve order without any outside assistance, and the meinbers stated that, judging by the conduct of the strikers hitherto,they no reason tu sup- pose that they would misconduct themselves any - where, certainly not on the floor of the Exchange. The Board of Trade eiyt > Company are doing good work wll day long, although they had on ly a single duplex wire at work between here an Calees At the upon SUPERINTENDENT BAKER, WHO SAID: -‘We have more operators than we need, and are sending some off to Galveston, Kansas Oity and Dallas. We have afair working force of hand and it is apreying very day. Business contin- ues, of course, to disarranged to a certain ex- tent, but yesterday we did nearly as big 4 stroke of work as ever before, amounting to 10,713 mes- sages, which is well up to the average. This is of course exclusive of specials, regular press réports and seme other general business.’’ “Will your service improve?” “It will be better every day. The rusty oper- ators are brightening yp Dhan practice, and every hour they are doing tter work. My reports from all vver the Southwest show that other of- fices are improving lu the same way. There is some complaint on oe about the receipt of matter there, but that is not because we a short, but because they have short forces in both New York aud Chicago. Chicago has usualiy from 300 to 400 operators; New York from 500 to 600; so you see 1 ae or been badly disorgan- ized, They have n filling up, however. As far as this office is coneerned, | can confideatly say that we shall have a full and efficient force at work here within ten days.” “1 see that Col Somry sage they willtake the strikers back there on promising to leave 0. estern Union office the reporter called > , | .

We get through the work promptly, and without complaint from anybody. We have sixty- four operators at work, and they are doing good work, All our branch offices round town are open and doing business.” Mr. Brown, in order to illustrate the means which the strikers take to proselyte the loyal operators, exhibited a note, written on a business ecard, which had been sent by a striking operator to a young lady who had remained true tw the matager during the present emergency. It was Sgroaxing, pleading, argumentative enistie, but its. unavailing character was shown by the fact that the young lady, who, the manager said, was engaged tothe operator who wrote it, turned the letter over to him when she entered the office. “I should think the engagement would be broken off now,”’ the reporter suggested. “Oh, no,” said Mr, brown; “he’ll think all the o- aag g her on account of it, when the strike’s over, in order to see how the strike is affecting THE GENERAL RUN OF BUSINESS the reporter called at some of the wholesale houses, at which qnembers of the various firms were unanimous M stating that they had not, in the slightest degree, felt any inconvenience from the strike. Such messages as they had sent had been delivered promptly at their destination ard such as they received gave no evidence of having been delayed. The feeling among thé strikers was one of deided anxiety. They not &x- pected that the Western Union would be able to cope withthe work yesterday in the man- y did, an@™the fact caused pretty general The only happy ones amongst them were those who visited the Merchants’ Ex- change where, more than anywhere else, the de- moralization of the company was apparent.

Those empowered to speak on the subject said that the strikers would be able to stay out for six weeks at least,and that by that time public Opinion would have forced the Western Union into a compromise. The statement made by Su- perintendent Selden of the Wabash telegraph system to the effect that operators of the brotber- hood had been left been left to watch the “‘seabs,”’ was mentioned to bim, and he virtually acknowl- edgea that such was the case, stating: “We know all that’s going on In the Western Union offices.” “Then you have your operators in there’?’’ the reporter asked. “I did not say so,” was the response, but the secretary’s manner as he said this indicated lainly that there are some wolves among the ambs in Mr, Brown’s fold. An operator named Martin, who is of the strik- ers, made a statement yesterday to the effect that he had applied to Mr. Brown for a month's wages due him, but that that gentleman had told him thar he was not ready to pay him and that he would notify the Master Workman when he was ready to do so. The strikers are expecting to add materially te their resources by a mooniight excursion, which they are organizing for next Tuesday evening. They have chartered the steamboat Chas. P. Chouteau, Capt. Thorwegan letting them gener- ously have the poat at a large reduction, and the proceeds of the excursion will go into the Broth- erhood’s coffers. Mr. Frank Ellis, who keeps a saloou on Locust street, has informed the strikers that he inteudas to give them the entire receipts of his place of business next Monday. * The Brotherhood hold another meeting this afternoon. at which business of great importance is expected to be passed upon. mpanv, said: splendidly. il The Railroad Operators. A trip around the railroad offices this morning disclosed the fact that more uneasiness existed among the telegraph operators than ever. Char- ‘lie Selden, Superintendent of Telegraph of the Wabash, and Charlie Hammond of the Gould lines had dischatged two men, ostensibly on the ground of disobedience. It appears the two dis- charged employes had been ordered to allow no outsiders in their offices under any circumstances. They both were night operators and did not com- ply with this order. So say the two superintend- ents. The Brotherhood has put a_ very different face on the act. They claim thev were discharged because they were Brotherhood men and would certainly have declined to work for the Western Union. . Last evening Messrs. Selden and Hammond were walking up and down the sidewalk in front of the Laclede hotel when a Post-DIsSPATCH maa joined them. “Mr. Hammond, I hear you have offered the Western Union some assistance in the way of let- ting them have some of your operators?” queried the reporter. “Yes, more than offered; we have alreacy sent them thirty-four,” said Mr. Hammond. “Ves, and we can send them a hundred more,” bravely chimed in Charlie Selden. The reporter, who happened to recollect that Mr. Hammond was one of the lights of the strike of 1870, expressed surprisa that he should send men off his lines to the Western Union, when it was supposed tor years after that strike that Mr. Hammond was biacklisted. Mr. Hammond re- lied that half of. his salary was paid by the Western Union, and he was compelled to do his duty. Anyhow he was sick of strikes and strikers. Men along the Union lines who had not struck were doing everything they could to blockade business. They open the keys and write in telegraphic characters “seabs,”’ Pi lay down with the goats,” “go soak your head,” and such stuff as this to insult and annoy operators who are not Brotherhood men. The open- ing and closing of” Keys is in Itself a great nuisance to sending and receiving opera- tors. Inthis Mr. Haiomond is correct, and if the strikers wish to retain the sympathy of the public av order had better be issued to do no small or mean acts. Test operators are being sept out by several railroad companies, and the Fob of tracing these acts to the perpetrator will be an easy thing by means of ground wires, placed at certain points at certain hours, manipulated with a cipher telegram. in short, the railroad operators who are Brotherhood men are feeling very uncer- tain about their jobs. Edison on the Strike. By Telegrapn to the Post-Dispatch. New York, July 21.--Mr. Thomas A. Edison, thé well-known electrician, was found smoking and chatting with some friends in his office at No. 65 Fifth avenpe. “What do you think ofthe strike of the tele- graphers?”’ the reporter asked. “I think it wili suceeed,” he replied; “I hope ft will, at any rate. My sympathy is with the strik- ers. I was for eight or nine years a telegraph operator, and I know whatthe work is. I used to get $105a month about fourteen yearsago. A man who runs a first-class wire ought to earn $100 a month. The longer the men are in the business the more efficient they become. haye not written a _ letter stating that I would assist the telegraph operators on a strike, but if they cet hard up and come to me I will willingly aid them. I believe they should be encouraged. The refusal of the tele- graph gg es to accede to the demands of the operators is a blow at skilled mental labor. Why the operators didn’t get 4s much pay as ordinary mechanics, They ought to get fiiteen per vent more . “Can the companies secure skilled operators to fill the places of the strikers, eggs “No, they cannot. There are no idle skilled operators able to do the work properly. There are skilled Speraters in more lucrative employ- ments, and they will not, therefore, leave then to take the place of any of the strikers. Only a few operators of any kind were IDLE AT THE TIMF of the strike, and those were incompetent. Not one in ten of the learners of telegraphy could take the place of the strikers.” telegraph company lose anything by putting im inferior men?” ‘Certainly they will. Inferior men can’t do the work that has been done the striking opera- tors. Why, I've seen p of this io-~lay, fh a dispatch which I received. It was full o/ sma. ers. This wili be the trouble with all dispatches sent by new or unskilled operators.” “Do — think the strikers will be victorious?” “I think they will; for t labor organizations which wil some time. They receive ten cents a 800,000 members of the brotherbvod in the country. This, with what the strikers have saved. will en- ble to stand time. T

Lowis Pest-Bispatch, Saturday, July 21, 1883, —__ meee siid Mr. Edison, in conclusion; “a great many laboring men get enthused over a strike and Mt becomes contagious.” Press Opinions. By Telegraph to the Post-Dispatch. | New York, July 21.—The Herald, commenting on the telegraph strike says: “‘We do not think it wise in such cor porations, by over-haughty and _supercilious conduct towaras their servants, to hasten the raising of the issue between wages and water which is sure to come up some day. Our advice to the managers of the Western Union Company is to come to terms with their striking sérvanis as soon as possible.” THE TRIBUNE. The Tribune says: “Little or no change was visible yesterday in the situation brought about by the strike of the telegraph operators. The company showdéd no sign of yielding te the strik- ers’ dematds and really aid wonders toward over- coming the embarrassinent in which the difficulty has laced it. The operators who are out are equally firmin their attitude and do not even suggest acompromise. But itis an fll wind that | blows nobody good. And so the anti-monopolists have come to the front bravely m_ the hope of making political capital for themselves. Unfort- -unately for them their legal counsel @es not ‘greatly encourage the idea that much is to be gained by apptying for a mandamus to compel the Western Union to do its work as if there was no strike.” At Chicago. CHICAGO, July 21.—The Chicago officials of the Western Union in this city report continued satis- faction with tne condition of affairs this morning. A good working force reported for day duty and all the messages are being woiked off expeditious- ly. Col. Clowry reports an imptoved condition of affairs throughout the entire western district. Some difficulty is being experienced through- out the northwestern circuit, growing out of atmospheric interruptions. A new local difficulty was encountered this morning by the failure of eleven supposed employes of the com- pany, who were made new members of the Broth- erhood. Some of them came hege for the porpose of going to work, but were pet ded to join the strikers. Only meagre market re- ports have been received, which cases considerable inconvenienee to the mercantile community and many complaints are heard. Threats ot suits against the Western Union Tele- graph Company are treely discussed, although no definite action has yet been taken. Manager Howard come down stairs this merning—the first time he has left the operating roum sinee Thurs- duy noon. He says he is receiving many applica- tions from operators in interior points asking for work. The Strikers Organize.

A WATER FAMINE. It is Extremely Probable—Low Stage of Water in the Keservoir. St. Louis is in a worse fix as to water supply just now than at any time of late years, and ‘fully one-half the western and sou;hwestern portion ef the city are suffering from insufficient service. At ‘noon to-day there was the merest fraction over three feet of water in the Compion Hill reservotr.

Only three feet of waterin the main reser- voir to-day. This is less water than the city was ever known to have on hand before. Don’t waste a drop! THAT talk about the ‘“‘old ticket” has si- lenced the boom for MCDONALD in Indiana. The newspaper interviewers in and around Terre Haute say it is all “TILDEN and HENDRICKS” now. THE Republicans of Virginia have de- clared through their committee for BLAINE for President in 1884. This will create al- most as much sympathy for Mr. BLAINE as the historic sunstroke. THE editor of the New York Sun has been compelled to publicly denounce the story that Frep. CONKLING is one of the stock- holders in his paper, and that Roscog swings the sentiments of the Sun. Mr. DANA knows how it is himself now. GEN. GRANT, itis said, feels very much depressed ov avcount of the indifferent man- ner in which the news of his death was re- ceived by the American people on Tuesday last. Noneof the public schools were dis- missed on receipt of the intelligence. THE newly-married Mayor’s reception last night was a creditable affair. The speeches _ made by’Our “local statesmen” were beauti- ful in the extreme. Commodore SMITH, who edits the Mayor’s Scrap-book, will be kept very busy to-day pasting away the gems. ee THE newspapers are all taiking about Judge HoapLy, who is running for Gov- ernor on the Democratic ticket in Ohio. The Republicans have made no nomination as yet. But hold; we do recall something about aman named ForAKER. Is he really run- ning? THE street railway companies repair their tracks whenever it suits them. They enjoy the privilege of converting our best streets into roadbeds and as lon, as they are able to drag cars over their crooked tracks they say, with Mr, VANDERBILT, “the public be d——d.”’ Tne citizens of the West End want Chief SEXTON to put a chemical engine in service out that way. This should be doné with- out delay, as the losses :t the various small fires in the residence portion of the city are often one hundred per cent greater by water than fire. Mr. DANA, at last accounts, preferred Mr, HOLMAN as a Democratic candidate for President, though he expressed to an inter- viewer decided leanings toward RANDALL. if Mr. DANA were only a recognized Demo- crat now he would be very valuable asa counselor. ? oe .THE Western Union managers claim that their offices are filling up with operators, and that they are taking care of their busi- ness quite well. The public inconvenience is not great. In fact, the present strike of the operators has caused less annoyance than the strike of 1870. A TELEGRAPH operator confined in the Penitentiary at Leavenworth has sent a message to the manager of the strike asking for the signal. He says that he wants to ‘go out.” This piece of wholly unexpected humor will atone for all the distress and suf- fering occasioned by the strike. , LT lr we had officials who could compel the street railway companies to observe the pro- visions of ther charter which requires them to keep their tracks in order we would have bet- ter streets in St. Louis. Nearly all the trouble with our worst thoroughfares is due to the elevated tracks of the street railways. WHILE the late “Tom Thumb” lived peo- ple were compelled to pay from twenty-five to fifty cents to get alookat him. At his {uneral the other day ten thousand persons walked in and gazed at the corpse of the lit- tle man and didn’t pay a ce The public has an inning occasiou@ily, it will be ob- served. Laken with the names of ladies in any but a base West- ern city. As a matter of fact, a New York journal, less than a month ago, printed a list of the mar- rlageable belles of Gotham, together with the licures representing their alleged fortunes. No- body entered a provest. Nobody rebuked the cnl- tivated New York newspaper. Hereafter we will be careful about how we tread in fhe footsteps of the refined journals of the East. IAMAaurethat the lovers of base-ball in St. Louis will be delighted to learn that a scheme is on foot to have Berry Mitchell pitch against siug- ger Sullivan in the exhibition game which is to be played here on Sunduy, August 5. Prof. Sullivan will be a big card, to be sure, but then whata grand outpouring there would be to see our own Berry arrayed against hiw! Berry is not only an expert billiardist, but a base-ball player of the first-class. Helis an amateur, but those who have seeu him pitch say that he delivers the balls as hot and swift as the best professionals. It is to be hoped that the manager of the Grand Avenue Park will give Berry a chance. It has been some lime since our public had a taste of Berry’s mettle, and there is a sort of universal longing to see him buttoned np ina base-ball uniform and aueting the part of a human catapult. 1 fancy lL can hear some “ladye faire’ in the grand stand, as she contemplates the athletic Berry de- livering the balls with the precision of a rifled cannon, repeating with Nestor when he saw Hector slashing around in frontof Troy: “Lo, Jupiteris yonder dealing life.” Give Berry a chance. I aM told that the arrrangements for the tab- leaux which are to follow the Veiled Prophets’ ball this year are all completed. It was the inten- tion originally to have as many tableaux as there were floats in the procession, but this tdea was abandoned owing tothe limited time. The pret- tiest scenes given in the floats have been chosen, and all the resources of scenic art are to be em- ployed in their representation. In one of the ,tableaux there will Wg no less than seventy cos- tumed people on the stage. The music to be given includes soma of the very best names inthe country. The tableau idea is a new one, and will tend to extend the revels throughout Fair week. The Olympic Theater has been secured, but there will be great difficulty in accommoaating at the tableaux even one-fourth of the people who will be invited tothe ball. Itis said th é hsts of persons to whom invitations are to H#fissued are already under examination, and that the censor- ship this year will be more rigid than ever be- fore. - THE Veiled Prophets seem to be spurred up to a greater effort than usual by the pressure of the M.D. A. Oneof the illuminati told me that the outlay of sixty thousand dollars, which was the original estimate, would pot cover the expenses of the pageant. ~ THE METROPOLITAN PRESS. What the Editors of the New York Journals Are Saying To-Day. By Telegraph to th@’Post-Dispatch. NEw YORK, July 21.—The World says: “Ifthe gentlemen who are charged with carrying out the Civili Service reform plan had had any confidence in the new thing they would have hailed with de- light the opportunity of carrying it on and would have withheld all unavoidable new appointments until the commission could have an opportunity ofexanining the applicants. But it appears that when the great work was put fairly under wav there was just one vacancy to be filled, the chiefs having taken time by the forelock, so to speak, and runin their men. The inference is that the hasty appointees would not have been able to pass the reform examinations.” THE SUN. The Sun says: “How far the Government authorities may be responsible for needless ex- penses in the public buildings, or how far they may be involved in any wrong doings, possibly the Hill Investigating Committee will be able to pointout. Thatthe extravagance in this direc- tion has already become alarming, there can be no question.’ THE TIMES. The Times says: “Gov. Butler, by his method of dealing with the management of the Tewks- bury Alms-house has coutrived to make a strict party question of it. The commutteé of investiga- tion made two reports yesterday, that of the ma- jority being signed by Republicans, and that of the minority by Democrats. The conclusions reached on the same evidence aiffer widely. The majority are disposed to belittle the charges. and show their deep solicitude for the fair fame of th e Com- monwealth.of Massachusetts and their detesta- tion of the Governor who has smireched it. The ininority, ou the other hand, are quite shocked at the revelations made by the inquiry. it must be said that very little judicial spirit was exhibited on either side, and the result of tne iuvestigation 1s practically worthless. The Governor, by ma- hicious exaggeration, gave a partisan turn to the business from the start, and evoked a similar spirit from his oppovents, until the inquiry be- came a ficree contest, out of which no valuable results could come. The whole bgsiness is dis- gracetul to all .concerned. PEOPLE WE KNOW. —Gen.

BARNES BABCocK, afarmer of New Berlin, Wisconsin, married a sixteen-year-old girl against the wishes of her parents, wuo locked. her up when she came home. Babcock had the old folks arrested and recaptured his bride. A NINETEEN-YEAR-OLD boy, of New York, shot his sixteen-year-old wife. Jealousy is the re- ported cause, but it is probably because he wanted bobs for his kite, and she wouldn’t obtige him by cutting up one of her flannel skirts. “STATIRA JANE,” said afond mother the other morning toher daugnter, “Did Daniel Johnson kiss youon the steps last night?” “No, mamma, he did not.” If the fond parent had said mouth instead of steps it would have troubled Jane to reply, although, after ali, steps are things to a door, “I7’s just too mean,” remarked a Philadelphia gossip. ‘‘When that couple next door moved in 1 could see by their faces that they quarreled, and do you know I have hardly got any sleep for two weeks walting to hear them commence, and now I’ve just jound out that they are deaf and dumb,” “Save the sweetest kiss for mother,” is the title of the latest newsong. The author evidently overlooked the fact that the young man’s pre- cious time is so completely occupied in paying his respects to the daughter that the old lady stands a mighty slim chance of getting any kiss at all. TEN years ago two loving hearts were separated by a little quarrel owing to the miscarriage of an explanatory letter.

OSCAR WILDE describes the American girl be- fore his London audiences as “a pretty oasis of unreasonableness in a desert of common sense.” LANGTRY says she will take back to England $100,000. She might, also, have taken back the respect of the Amerjcan people, had she chosen to earn it. BRIDGET Fox, an eccentric old maid of Bur- lington, lowa, who carried $1,500 on her person, was knocked down in her dooryard and robbea by two young men. A RAILWAY clerk has been lucky enough to yank a $100,000 heiress from the cruel waves at Long Branch. She hasu’t given him her hand, but bas ordered for him a gold watch that will have two hands. Dr. MARY WALKER has arrived at Washing- ton to begin a fight to retain her place in the pen- sion office, and simultaneously it is reported that Commissioner Dudley has gone to New York, Whether his departure is due to the appearance of the belligerent Mary at the capital is not posi- tively Known, but her reputation as a fighter makes it more than likely. THERE is a young lady now in high society in America, her native land, whose husband is an English Lord, writes a correspondent, and whose father-in-law is a Duke. She is beautiful, ac- complished, interesting, and she might have made a good match in New York; but she wanted a Lord, and she got him. He inherited gambling from his mother, the Duchess, and he gambles away all hecan get. He is dissolute and unscru- pulous; she is wretched and neglected. So she pays very long visits to her relatives in Ainerica, where she can plunge into society and forget her European experiment. THE PEOPLE'S FORUM. Where the Readers of The Post-Dispatch Find a Hoaring. ST. Louis, July 19, 1883. To the Editor of the Post- Dispatch, Having read the two articles recently published in the Post-DispATH in regard to the Confeder- ate ram, Arkansas, and being acquainted thor- oughly with things pertaining tothe Arkansas froin the time the hull left Mempbis to the com- pletion, action and destruction of her, and was also personally acquainted with her officers, Capt. Brown aud Lieut. Stevens, and Pilots Capt. J. D. Hodgé, and Capt. James Brady, of St. Louis; Mr. Shacklett, of Mississippi, and Mr. Willmore, of Louisville. Kentucky, consider that I ain well qualified in making a iew corrections. July 13 says that she was equal to about three nboats, not rams, of the Federal fleet. Now r. Pilot of July 13, if such was the case, why did not the ten or tweive boats you had therew re- ceive her manage to capture her? But such was pot the case, for she showed herself superior tu twelve, and not three boats. To all thinking people the very proof of the prowess speaks for ftself, by her escape under such heavy firing and at so slow a “ne }and the crippling of so many Feder#) boats. | her machinery had been in perfect working order she could have made short work of the whole Federal fleet. Nevrly all on that vessel were volunteers, and a braver and more daring set of men could not have been found. No wonder due credit is not given the wonderful feat, for it was a bitter defeat for the enemy to haye experienced, It is stated in the first article that the flag was struck; also, that “this issue is avolded by some Federal historians and denied by overs.” For why, 1 wonder? It is true phat Der flag Was struck down, and equaily true that was struck three times, ind as many times faised by a gallant and nobie young boatswaih,” Another correction 19] to number of deaths on Arkausas.

The Demand for a Change. , From the New York Wor <. A political change in the Administration is de. sirable to establish the fact that we still live un- der a republican form of government. in which the will of the people is supreme. It is desirable also because a long lease of power breeds cor- ruptions Which a change of parties alone can up- root, and because of the baneful influences under which Kepublicanism has passed. It is desirable because Republican victories of late years have been won through the moneyed power of favored corporate monopolies whose hidden hand, felt but not seen, guides the policy and controls the acts of Republican administrations. But above all and beyond all, a change is necessary in order to prove that the people still rule, that the authority of their decision at the polls cannot be denied or defied, and that republican government is nota failure. Historic Justice. From the Sedalia Democrat. What sort of historic justice is that which sac- rifices the giant demands of a great party on the altar of one poor old man, whose sole surviving attribute of strength is, “a healthy complexion ,”’ and throws down the people’s cry for practic! work at the feet of a man whose head is bumping along the milky way amoung the stars? MHis- toric justice is a great scheme. It smells of rose- mary and columbine, It contains the poetry of the morning dew, the sweetness of the honey- suckle and the romance of the hight wind. Goon, gentlemen. Lf there is any one thing on earth that American people reverence above another, it is Historic Justice—and lots of it. Reform Within the Party. From the New York World. The republication by Mr. Dorsey of bis story of the negvutiations with Garfiela and of his manage- ment of the Garfield campaign has made a deep impression on the Republicans, and they have in- wardiy resolved never to trust Dorsey again. They are like the old toper who heard of the death of hischum from the combustion of his breath caused by blowing out a candle, and who thereupon sent fora Bible and solemnly swore thereoa never—to biow out a candle. The Original Band. From the New York World. The Times maxes the number of Kepubliean Presidential preferences forty-one. Evidently an error. The original band had but forty—as every reader of Ali Baba, etc., knows. Can't Stand Heat. From the Texas Siftings. Several fashionable churches in northern cities have announced that they are closed for the sea- son. Fashionable religion cannot stand hot weather. What it is going todo hereafter, in its unacclimated state, only Heaven knows. TT A Fell Destroyer. From the Washington Post. Lightning has annually killed about one ina million of our population.

Public interest in the status of the fight between the Solid Seven and the Mayor is waning and the causes and personal motives which bronght on th@ trouble have almost been lost sight of, while many of them were never known. A prominent merchant, who is known to bea friend of the Mayor, was approached by a Post-DIspatrcu re- porter yesterday and askedif he knew anything about the inside history of the fight between the Mayor and the “Solid Seven.” He replied: “I know a good deal about the mat- ter from various sources and have no hesitation in giving you the bottom facts if my name is Kept out of the matter, for as Iam nota politician I do not care to get mixed up in 4he fight.” Being answered that his name would not be used by the Post-DISPATCH Ire proceeded as follows; “In thefirst place Dr. Frank, the ex-t/oroner, is an intimate friend of Andy Brown, aud Andy isa particular friend of Councilman Temple. Andy Brown wanted Dr. Frank appointed Health Cominissioner, and so did Mr. Temple. Mr. Ed Fox, the brother-in-law of Dr. McLean, was a particular friend of Andy Brown’s, and Andy wanted him to be appointed Commissioner of Supplies. So Mr. Temple. When Andy found that both Fox and Frank were left out in the cold, and that political coffins was allhe could supply them with, he was very angry and so was Mr Temple. So Mr. Temple, although elected asa Democrat, ughts the Muyor because two Republi- cab friends ef his were not appointed to proml- nent places upun the slate. Judge Vastine has always trained with Filley. Pete Daily and Pohl- man, but when the gang got down upon Filley, Vastine had to mareh to the music. His par- ticular fight iS to have Tom Daily appointed Police Judge. It is @upposed that Judge Vastine is at present engaged in reading a certain referee's report, prepared by Hon. Na- thanie! Holmes,ex-Judge of the Supreme Court of Missouri, with a view [0 making cupious quota- tions from it in his forthcomiug impeachment speech. I think it would be better to let the Council have the full original report, or a certified copy, $0 thet they might make selections to suit themselves." Upon this point the interviewée refused to fur- ther depose. “How about Cummings?” the reporter asked. “Ob, Culumings—he’s the tunny man ot the Sol- id Seven. Why, let me tell you something that Cummings will not undertake to deny, for the proof exists,and something which will surprise the Globe-Democrat. When the Globe first caine cut, and suid Cumm.ngs would not yote tor Chauncey 1. Filiey, Mr. Cummings wrote Mr. Filley a letter denying that the Giobe had authority w -peak for him, and pledging his volte Ww = Filley, if he, Filley, would =promise to place a friend of his, Cummings, upon the slate for City Weighmaster. Fuiiley repiled in his usual cautious manner, stating Wat he pre- sumed that the Globe had no authority for its ar- ticle, but ignoring Cummings’ modest request avout the weigh-master. Now just think of it. Phis bad man Filley pannene could have been con- firmed for the smali consideration ot a paltry weigh- master! Then Cummings wrote a second letter withdrawiilg his support from Filley. Let him deny this, and I expect you can get the letters for publication,” “How about Mr. Zelle?’’ “Mr. Zelie is as popular at the Mayor’s office as he is with the solid Seven. Mr. Zelle is opposed to Filley, because he is afraid Filley woula use the office to wiiich he Was appointed to build up anew machine; but then Zellé is equally opposed tothe Daily and Pollman crowd, if the matter were leit to Mr. Zelle’s free will there would have been peace long ago. How they ever fooled him int6 the combination is a wonder to his friends.” ‘‘How about the four Demoé¢rats?”’ “From a purely political standpoint they are worthy of all praise. -In a mjnority of four to nine (for Haives acts with the Mayor) they have succeded in dividing the Republican party; have piaced themselves ina position to demand tour important places, when they are politically not eniitied to one; and above all have, by the aid of three deserters from the Republican camp,kept the Democratic appointees of a Democratic mayor in office three months yey their time, with an indefinite hold upon their places. But then you must remember this is pot a purely political town, and conservative independent vuters may have their own views about sharp political tricks.” “Can you give the actual agreement between the Seveif?” “Iean. The four Democrats are to be ajlowed the selection of four places. The positions are Chief of the Fire Department, Superintendent o the Work-house,.Weigh-master and Boiler In- spector. The three Republicans areto pass in caucus upon every Republican 2 pions sam and when two agree to confirm or reject,the four Dem- ocrats vote in accordance with the views the Republican caucus without question. Thus you see the fate of every Kepub- lican appointee is in the hands of two men. his is simply infamous and a mass meeting of Repub- licans should be called to demand the resignation of Cummings, Vastine and Zelle. Thisis the po- sition of affairs—you can depend on it, for my In- formation comes Irom the fountains thereof.” NOT AN ADOPTED CHILD. Judge Barclay’s Decision in the Case of Julia Sharkey. In the case of Julia Sharkey against Catharine McLaugblin’s administrator, Judge Barclay this morning rendered the following decision: “This is a suitin equity, the Neg object of which appears to be to obtain a decree giving plaintiff the status of an adopted child of certain parties deceased who promised to adopt her, and with whom she lived many years as an adopted child, giving -her foster parents her earnings, ae proper legal sieps had beén taken. In this State a person ean be adopted as the child of another by deed duly executed and acknowledged by the person making the adop- tion ana duly recorded, as in the case of convey- ances of real estate. The courts of equity cannot dispense with these requirements and create rights of inberitance by acts of adop- tion, however clear, other than those prescribed by the Legislature. Piaiitiff? may bave an action for the services and for the earnings iven up by her on the supposition that she was he adopted child, but to maintain the petition on that theory amendment will be nbecessary as to the parties defendant, so as lo proceea solely against the administrator of the persons who appropriated her earnings as alleged,” Our old sweetheart in a new dress—Little Beauties round eigarettes, twenty for 10 cents.

Yours ever, CHARLES.” A thick-set, beetle-browed young man who had been leaniug over the desk of a telegraph office for three hours and a half, alternately writing and tearing up slips and biting the south end of a lead pencil pointing north, looked up at this moment with a winning smile that made his otherwise stern face look like a Scotch terrier with his back scratched, at the young lady = arranging her bangs, and remarked; “I think that will do.” The ,.young lady, swith a parting hunch uf her bang, indifferently picked up the paper. “Twenty-five cents’ was the only response. The quarter jingled on the oaken top board and the young man was fone, ' A diabolical smile seemed to flit over the omi- nous notice hung on the wall. It was three days my the fatal signal had flashed from pole to pole. CHAPTER I. The night was so dark that a _ black cat, outlined against the ebony of the civud- covered sky on a neighboring chimney, looked iike an ecru necktie ou aduarkey preacher dressed in broadcloth. Nothing could be seen; but the a. id clink of something walking up a tall pole could be heard in a lonely spot beyond the suburbs. There was a sound of twisting wire and then a muffiea rap of a hammer, apparently driving something into the wooa, The sound deecended the pole, und “I have fixed it” were the only words whispered, as several footsteps were lost in the surrounding brusb. The desperate Brotherhood were not reposeful. CHAPTER IIL. Irene Mac DeVere sat on her father’s front step. Her charms can be better imagined than de- scribed. She had passed through a terrible strug- gle, which left her only complaisant. Two suitors had urgently pressed ior the honor of her sinewy hand, One was the local freight agent of the leading railway of her native town, and the ofher she had become acquainted with through the personal columns of a paper. His picture,taken by a Franklin avenue photographer, indicated the possession of wealth and a Gark, deep, passionate nature, that fascinated ber yearning but untried nature. She had concluded to try the latter and now she had given up her position as telegraph operator at tle nearest station to bestow the eén- tire wealth of her eager appetite on the pocket- book of her lever. lle waited for his coming, for on the morrow they were to be wedded at the vil- lage cliurch. She waited aday and a half and then kindly married the freight agent. CHAPTER IV. Some years had guue by since a beetle-browed young man had passed teu hours drowning a ter- rible disappointment ina flirtation with a nurse girl over the way from the station, where he awaited the coming of a return train, A little boy was splitting kitchen wood for his widowed mother, who lived just beyond the suburbs of a reat city, and a cyclone of the night before ha aid low a convenient pole witha wire attache which he was utilizing rapidly. A chip flew off before the edge of his little hatchet, which he watched while resting for the next blow. A small puncture in it ome his eye, and he noticed some strange marks like dots and lines onthe inner surface. Heran with it to his mother, who was placing a light piece of goods on the dark back- ground of apairof pants. She looked atit in- differently at first, but suddeniy the old memory of the forgotten click, click, flashed gcross her mind. Slowly and painfully the signs came back, and she read: “St. Louis, July 22, 1883, Miss Lrerfe Mac DeVere: I cannot come until next week. Piease postpone theevent. Yours ever, Charles.” The full truth came out only when, a few weeks after, something in the face of the man that asked for a piece of bread suggested the dark, deep, passionate look in the picture over the mantel, and, as he felded her to his coat bosom aud mur- mnred: “IT hope this lost post dispatch that has united us will be the beginning of happiness,” A dee ponte settled over his soul. He may be found daily at the grocery store waiting for ¢ strike to turn up. while his wife takes in washing and the boy spiits wood as of yore. Lunch Bask~ts.

The most dangerous and nearly in- curable complaint that birds are subject to, is the’pip, or hardening of the small trans- parent-looking three-cornered gland at the root of the tail. It contains all the oily secretions necessary to the growth of the feathers, and when diseased it dries up and becomes hard and horny.

Linseed promotes moulting, being oily in substance, so also is hempseed. A rusty nail, camphor or a dropofsherry or whisky in the water, suffic#ént to make it taste and smell, are all Capital tonics. Cleanliness must be observed. Auother requisite is an abundance of fresh water, both for bathing and drinking. It opens the pores of the skin, softening it and enabling the hard quills to cut through with less pain and bleeding.’’ “DO VERMIN TROUBLE CANARIES ?” “Yes; a louse called the red mite, although until gorged they are a transparent white, like glass. Once generated, these insects multiply so alarmingly fast and are so rap- idly destructive that, unless the bird in- fected with them be treated without delay, they soon kill him. Red mites. re- main hidden ali day, and may . be detected at night by placing a white cloth over the cage, and removing all light. Returning suddenly in about an hour, you will find the insects running over the cloth. The remedies commonly used are: Bathing the bird in camphor water, abiowing it to dry on the body. Another remedy is an in- fusion of quassia made by steeping half an ounce of the wood in a pint of cold water for three or four hours. The bird is dipped in this solution, taking care not to get his beak, eyes or ears wet with the liquid, or the effect may be serious. Some sprinkle the cage with insect powder, and a little flour of sul- phur dusted among their .feathers will be found of service. One or other of these operations will effectually remove the ver- min, butin all cases the bird must be re- moved and the cage well scalded. RIVER LORE. Some Interesting Views From An Observant Old-Timer. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch: Tne New Orleans Times-Democrat of the 20th of June has a synopsis of the speech of Senator Jonas before the Levee Convention, recently held at Baton Rouge, La. In re- viewing the remarks of Capt. Leathers, he claimed that the experience of the Captain and every other man, when it stands in the light of science, as far as its scientific worth, is of no more value than that of Columbus, and asks of what value their knowledge is when the flood of waters is to be stayed. When such. ig«to be done: he claims, we appeal to the men of philosophy; men who have studied the hydraulics of the river as scientists. It is, he claims, to such men these questions are referred. We would very respectfully ask Senator Jonas what he means by science? According to him we should ignore practical facts for what scientists, who have drawn their theories | from the mill streams of Europe and rocky torrents of the East, deem scientific facts, and whieh are of no more real value when applied tothe Mississippi than a cob-web would be to make a Norwegian overcoat. Every steamboatman of experience knows what absolutely rediculous plans have been tried by the so-called scientists and how they have all miserably failed. We will call attention to some of them in order to see the result of pure science as applied to the Mis- sissippi River. First, the rock dyke. This is undoubtedly the best system that can be adopted on streams of the_ torrent character or those that have a rocky bed, but absolutely useless on such streams as the Lower Mississippi. Second, the wire net, the most ridiculous as well as the most ingenious method of wasting money. )A patent with a leather medal sbeuild be awarded the inventor). Third, the curtain (this also deserves a patent for its useless- ness, Fourth, the pile, brushand stone com- bined, and lastly, the pile, mattress and stone combined. And just here we may properly refer to an occurrence that will place scientific opinions in comparison with the opinions of practical river men and ask Senator Jonas to fairly weigh them before he again sneers at practical men. Immediately after the war (in 1866) a prac- tical steamboatman, in conversation with Mr. Victor Wilson and Mr. Mattingly, of Vicksburg, made the remark that if the citi- zens of Vicksburg did not do something to prevent it, the river would make a ¢cut-off and leave Vicksburg altogether inside of ten years. At first the prediction was laughed at, but about 1870 they became alarmed and by applying to the Secretary of War, a com- mission of two scientists, Col. Macomb and Major Suter, were sent down to examine and report on the danger. We have not tle re- port at hand to refer to, but it was to the ef- iect that there was no immediate danger, and when it did cut through, if ever, it would be manv years before it would affect Vicksburg. Practical steamboat man claimed that if the cut-off made that in less than five years there would be trouble in getting to the landing. The warnings of practical men were neglect- ed and the diction of the scientists was relied on, and Vicksburg mourus the result, Sg We will also refer to one other case where science was powerless and practical men won the day. Whenapart of the fleet that ac- companied Banks up Red fiver was caught above the falls, owing to the rapid fall of the river, science could find no other means of preventing their falling into the enemy’s hands than destroyingthem. Col. Bailey, a Wiscensin or Michigan raftsman, devised a means he had often used to. get his timber out of the small streams of the North, and by so doing saved the fleet. In the above we can see the results of purely scientific minds, such as have been adopted by Senator Jonas, and if fairly examined and understood would make the word science, as understood by the Hon. Sen- ator, simple nonsense. Practical boatmen claim that true science is the deduction drawn from a knowledge of facts, and it ls a pertinent’ question to ask, has the River Commission either individually or collective- ly a sufficient knowledge of facts to enabie thein to deduce from them a proper syS- tem ef river improvements? We —t as- sert they have not, or if they have they are incapable jof deducing such a system, and just here we may ask of these yentlemen and their admirers why they do not give us a system that will do away with the need of levees and overflows below Cairo. We know that such a thing is possible and in reach of the peopie at a less cost, if begun right, than the cost of the levee system kept up for fifty years; and we assert, and are prepared to prove it, that the land reclaimed from absolute swamp would be worth more than the cost of the whole, to say nothing of the advantage ina sanitary view.

PICKWICK THEATER. “Le Tyrolien” is proving quite populgr and the management are so well pleased with its success that they have decided to keep it on until further notice. Miss St. Quinten’s im- personation of Muiler, the beggar boy, has made very favorable impression, and the other parts are acted with acceptance by the remaining artists. The company have in preparation ‘“The Mascot,” due notice of the presentation of which will be given. HENRY IRVING. Robert Laird Collier, an Unitarian divine who formerly presided over a congregation in Chicago, but now resides in London, En- gland, has written an interesting letter to the Chicago Tribune on Henry Irving’s ap- proaching trip to America. Mr. Collier re- ports that Mr. Irving is anxious as to the judgment American critics and audiences will pass upon him as an actor. “Mr. Igving,”’ he writes, ‘“‘takes no little risk. He goes to America as no other artist ever before has gone toa foreign and distant country. He will be supported by the whole of his Lyceum company, numbering no less than fifty persons. He takes with him so much of the ‘stage properties’ of his London theater as to give in Ameriga the same scenic impression that has become so conspicuous and looked for at the Lyceum. Never in the history of the stage has the drama had such magnificence and appropriateness of setting as at this theater under Mr. Irving’s man- agement. The wealth of: scenery and cos- tuming has caused a fresh surprise with every new piece that has been put upon the stage. Itis Mr. Irving’s wish and purpose to reproduce in America in every instance all this wealth of stage appointment. Many in England who disallow Mr. Irving’s claim to be a great actor, do concede that he is by instinct and training a great artist. He has the feeling of an artist. Perhaps this artistic feeling is what is usually under- stood by good taste. It would be difficult to conceive of anything inits way more con- suminately perfect than the manner in which the pieces are put upon the Lyceum stage. Mr. Irving’s stage business is beyond both the function and inclination of criticism.” Of Miss Terry’s personal and intellectual qualitications, Mr. Collier says, in a review of the support Mr. Irving brings with him: “Mr. irving has surrounded himself with the very highest histrionic talent in Eng- land, Itis the honest boast of the Lyceum thatevery person on its boards is a ‘star.’ There is not a poor or even indifferent actor in the Lyceum company. This fact, not wholly new to America, has never been real- ized to anything like the extent and perfect- ionas in this case, Mr. Terriss, Mr. Fer- nandez, Mr. Howe and Mr. Forbes are espe- cially great artists, and are sure to win high praise in America. But after Mr. Irving, and in instances before Mr. Irving, Miss Eilen Terry will bear off the palm. All in all, she is the most charming actress in the world. tlrecord this as the uniform testi- mony of all who have seenher. Ido not say that, all in all, she is the greatest actress. Perhaps Sarah Bernhardt, Ristori, or even Modjeska would take rank before her in the range and altitude of their histrionic genius and power. ikut notone of these has the singular charm, the irresistible fascination of Miss Terry. On the stage Miss Terry looks not more than twenty, and sbe has ail those natural endowments of person—so great a boon to woman—that make even middle age give the impression and wear the charm of youth. She is a _ perfect figure. She is blonde and hasa profusion of light hair. lam not quite sure, butI fancy I have heard that Mr. Emerson once said, when seeing the dancing of one of the earl- iest of the great dancers who graced the American boards, that it was ‘poetry in motion.’ Miss Terry is all poetry in mo- tion. Every attitude, every gesture, every intonation, every expression of feature or figure is simply consummate.”’ NOTES. Mollie Maeaer joins M’ile Rhea next sea- son.

A beautiful yacht, seventy teat long, with plenty of cabin and state rooms, has been selected for the trip. ‘The company will play only three or four nights a week, the balance of the time being de- voted to fishing, hunting and bathing. M. Mounet-Sally, a societaire of the Comedie Francaise, and the greatest living French tragedian, speaking of Henry Irving’s Romeo, said recently: ‘Those of usin Paris who only know ‘Romeo and Juliet’ from having heard the opera, or seen any of the French translations of it, do not atall know ‘Romeo and Juliet,’ and even those who have only read it in English do not have the ‘Romeo and Juliet’ of Shak- speare. When I saw Irving, I saw what gave ine the most interesting,tle newest and the most artistic sensation that the stage and its literature can offer. It was a revélation to me of the true character and genius of Shakspeare, and it was alsoa revelation of anaspect of the dramatic art which is en- tirely unknown on the Frenchstage.”’ George Edgar, who comes of good old American dramatic stock and where tragic qualities have already made their mark in hrs impersonations of Lear and Othello, ventures the coming season asan experi- ment asa Shakspearean star. Mr. Edgar is forty-four years old, of fine stage presence, and thorough experience and -enthusiastic- ally earnest in his ambition to become one of the acknowledged American tragedians.

The History of a Little Bill Incurred on the Frontier. From tne Philadelphia Times. {I met “Old Reese’”’ at Laredo, Tex., for the first in 1874. His friend gave me the history of his trouble with a certain long-haired fel- low. ‘Sturgis is a gambler.” he said, “and when he first came here everybody was afraid of him and he sorter run the settlement. Old Reese Was away then. He came back here about two months ago. The day he ‘re- turned he was passing along the street, when he met a littl boy erying. Old Reese is very fond of children, and they. all like him. He picked the little fellow up, dried his tears, and inquired the cause of his trouble. Between his sobs the boy told his story. He was the only son of a pocr widow woman who lives down by the river and does washing for the gamblers. Early inthe spring Sam Sturgis had em- ployed him to attend to his horse gs oe to pay him $2 a week for his services. Gi tu be abie to help his mother, the little fel- luw touk charge of the gambler’s caballo, and groomed and fed him for sixteen weeks. Then Sturgis sole the animal, and his ser- vices were no longer required. Hé had just been in to ask Sturgis for his pay, and the gambier had not oulv not paid him, but had pitched him out of the casino, ‘***lie kicked you, did he?’ said Reese, and those blue eyes of his snapped, **Yes, sir,’ faltered the boy. ***And he won’t pay you your money?” **No, sir,” Whimpered the boy, ‘and moth- er needs it,’ ‘“**] think he’ll pay,’ answered Reese. ‘You run right home now, and i’ll be down to see you presently ang bring the money.’ “Sturgis was «pretty flush then and was running a big game. Old Reese went down tosee him. Well, sir, it’s only about a week ago that he recovered from that interview aud was able to be about. “Old Reese walked Into the saloon, calied for pen and paper, and made out the follow- ing bill: LAREDO, TEX., August 4, 1874.

He jerged his six-shooter out of Sturgis’ hand and beat him over the head with it until he cried for mercy. “Will you pay the bill?” asked Reese, raising the six-shooter to hit again. *Yesl” And he paid it. Abd-el-Kader’s Joke. From L'Evenement. Madame Olympe Andouard tells the fol- lowing queer story about Abd-el-Kader: She Was on one occasion at Cairo, whence she was about starting to visit the Suez Canal. At the depot she met the celebrated Emir with one of his nephews, an inter- preter and three followers. Madame Olympe Andouard obtained an introduction. **l asked him,” she says, “if he did not speak French a little. ‘Lhe reply of the Emir, as translated by the interpreter, was that he did not understand one word of French. **We all took our seats in an elegant car placed at our disposition by the viceroy ot Egypt. Abd-el-Kader continued to converse through his interpreter. ‘lhe day after our arrival at Tel-el-Kebir we went ou boarda great vessel which was to bring ws to lsmailia. The interpreter fell asleep, and [ chatted. I remarked that the Emir seemed to be very awiable; that his deportinent was noble and proud; that his face was really handsome, and that his gaze, penetrating and smiliug by turas, possessed a strange charm. Then 1 aud my compan- iuns began to talk about his past, his wives, his young nephew, Whose eyes Were so ar- deut and mouth so sensuous; we really said awful things among ourselves. Grave as & bronze seated upon an altar the Ewir watched us, calm, impassive. . ~~ ‘The passage lusted eignt hours.

A LION STORY. Soldiers Treed by One of the Tawny ‘Terrors. From Temple Bar. “You see that corn moving?” “Of course I do.” “Well, that is the tail of the lion beating the ears.” We wisely halted to learn the eneimy’s in- tentions, when witb incomprehensible stu- pidity, one of the Arabs shouldered his rifle and shot it off in the direction of the lion. Even if that rifle had been a Devismes or 4 Lepage, unless the Arab had hit the lion between the eyes, the only result was the wounding and exciting the lion. The consequences had not long to be waited for. The lion iustantly began bound- ing forward in fearful strides, and our cour- age being equal to the occasion, we climbed up the nearest trees as quickly as we could, considering discretion the better part of valor. lIsut the lion had seen us, and he ap- roached like a steam engine. As fate wouid 1ave it, he looked around and chose the tree on Which I sat with two zouaves, roaring tremenduously, and wildly beating the air with his tail. Iie then went a few steps back, never for one inoment losing sight of us, and witha sudden bound ju:mped at the tree and tore a big bit of bark and wood out and shook us in the branches like grapes. <A second time he tried the sane experiment with a rage grand to behold: but after the third time, failing to break the trunk, which fortunately was a very solid one, or to make us fall duwn, he began first in a large circle, then gradually Mm narrower ones, to pace rvund the tree, his tail alwaysin the air ready to strike. He never tor a moment turned his eye away from the inhabitants of the leafy roof. L confess here that 1 did not feel comfurtable, andif anyone tells youhe meta lion and he was perfectly calm and composed, take his narration cum grano salis. I knowsthat Jules Gerard, who killed eight-and-twenty lions and who made that sort of thing his profession, once, only once in his life, after having waited a whoie night for a lion, sud- aac Ushers sume wood cracking behind him, and, turning around, beheld the head of the east. ‘Then he said, “I looked at him and he looked at me for wnat 1 fancy was a full minute, buc may have been half a minute or less, and when I thought the comedy had lasted quite long enough, bringing my rifle iuto position | let the whole courtesy” (this was his expression) “‘into the lion’s 4 and Ihave no doubt that one second later it would have been—tov late.” Anyhow, we felt a curious sensation with this monster so near and seemingly so deter- mined to waitany length of time, for he looked up at us with the clearest possible expression,.as much as to say: You just come down, you cowards, and let us have a fair tight; we will soon see who will get the best of it. And he continues slowly walking round the tree, watching us asif to espy every movement of ours. At last he march- ed so slowiv and so near, always holding up his proud, 4 head, thatl said to my comrades: ‘We have six good shots. The next time he comes within my range I shall slowly take aim and fire; if I miss him do not be rash, wait your chance—one of us must kill him.” hen he neared me took aim siowly and cautiously, knowing the danger if I failed. One second more—lI pressed the trigger, the ball went straight in at the corner ot his eye and fell. Now was the question, Was he dead, or did he, as they often do, pretend and lie motioniess? ‘The blood, however, flowed freely, and he seemed not to have any life, when one of the zouaves said: “Si monsieur me donne cent francs (£4), Je de- scends et je iui donne son reste.’ 1 said; “I will give you the amount with pleasure, but 1 do not wish you to risk your life for a pal- try sum, becauseif he is not quite dead, you are dead the moment you come near him.” Well, the man thought he would risk it, being of opinion the beast was dead. He descended, his rifle under his arm, his finger on the trig- ger, but as he, with the utmost caution, neared the lion a violent, spasmodic stroke with the tail made us fear that it was all over with the man. At this critical mumeut he let the whole charge in at the lion’s ear, and, fortu- nately, killed it. Then of course we all came down, and now the Arabs began in- suiting hin: “You robber, you thief; you stole my sheep; you dishonorabie brigand, 1 don’t know whether the lion despised calumny, but he replied nothing, which seems the most prac- ticable meaus of silencing gossiping tongues, and after cutting his head off, which was borne in triumph into the village, this ex- citing event Was over. —- Fished Out of the River.

Relics of the Famous Duchess of Dev- onshire Sold at Auction. From the London Times. A very curious and interesting collection of personai relics belonging to the famous beautifui Duchess whom Sir Joshua Rey- noids and Gainsborough painted among their finest portraits was dispersed under the hammer. of Messrs. Sotheby last week. These had long been treasured up by Lady Svencer-Clifford, aiong with many others which had belonged to Lady Betty Foster, the bosom friend of Georgiana, and who strangely enough, after the death of the Duchess became herseif her successor in the affections of the Duke as the second Duchess, and was also painted by Sir Joshua. Besides many pretty trinkets--albunis, Sevres and Dresden cups and saucers, lockets with locks of hair, and bouquets of flowers dead this hundred years, tuere were a considerable number of autograph letters from eminent pba Among these were several from zady Byron to her husband, the poet, and one of great interest, which would seem en- tirely to contirm the views of Mr. Jefferson in the latest life of bryon, although it has not hitherto been publicly séen. ‘Lhere were also some poems in the autograph of Byron, one “Hear my Prayer,” probably unpub- lished, dated,1812. ‘nis sold for £22 10s., (Bain). ‘The packet with Lady Byroun’s let- ters suld for £21 (Thibadeau).

The most interesting of the personal relics Was, perhaps, the al- bum containing the pvem by Georgiana, Duchess of Devonshire, called the ‘*Passage of St. Gothard,”’ illustrated by drawings by her friend and traveling companion, Lady Elizabeth Foster, daughter of the Marquis of Bristol. The value of this album was, however, chiefly in the extremely beautiful miniature in oils by Angelica Kauffman, R. A., of the two ladies, whieh has been en- graved.

Prince Leopold ot Bavaria, who has done some hard work in the domain of compara- tive anatomy, is about to publish a memoir on the tongue, which will command some at- tention. On the railroads of England and Wales there were in 1881 about 2,263 inhabitants for every locomotive, as against 2,607 in 1871, andethere were 1,017 inhabitants for every passenger car, as compared with 1,232 in 1561. From the decomposing masses of anima! flesh Professor Briggs of Berlin has isolated a very violent poison, which analysis proved to be a hydro-chioric salt of a new base, and Which did not resemble any otber known cum bination. A large number of ornaments and imple- ments of jade, with some of the unwrought stone, has been received by the Smithsonian Institution from Louisiana, and itis proba- ble the ultimate source of the mineral wil! soon be discovered. In an improved bichromate of potash bat- tery M. Luig Ponci uses a liquid of this com- position: One kilogramme of bichronite, crushed and dissolved in four litres of boiil- ing water, to which two litres of chiorvhy- driec acid are added. Noformation of crys- tals takes place in the battery with this solu- tion. Mr. Charles A. Cameron, in a paper on the poisonous properties of boracic acid, men- tions the fact that a cow died within a few hours after a duse of borax had been admin- istered to her ia mistake for glauber salts. Large duses of boracic acid, cause paraly- sis of the nervous aud muscdlar systems in dogs. In reply to some inquiries, it may be stated that the new liquid explosive, *‘panciastic.” as it is called by its inventor, M. E. Turpin. consists of a mixture*of carbon disulphide and hyponitric acid. The liquids are kept separate before being used. Unconfined, the mixture burns with a soft light like that of the moon. When a little phosphurus is added to the disniphide, the radiance is very brilliant. Confined in shells, torpedoes. eic., and exploded with fulminate of mer- curp or gunpowder, its ‘effects are terrribie, far exceeding those af dynamite or nitro- glycerine. it will not be weil for inexper'- enced persons to tamper with these liquids. For the treatment of both hard and soft corns, Dr, ‘Traill Green speaks highly of the use of salicylic acid. He has adopted 4 formula recommended by Dr. Gezon, which is as follows: Salicylic acid, 34 parts; ex tract canabis indica, 5 parts; collodion# parts. The collodion fixes the acid on the diseased part, aud gives 8 relief by protecting it from friction. The canabis ia dica acts as an anodyne. The acid loosen the corn so that it comes off in four or tiv! days, adhering to the collodion. Lf any iy tion of the corn remains, the acid should bi aogmes again, and the treatment continue! until the whole of the corn has disappeared SecuRE your help through the help wanted columns of the [’ost-DigraTcH.

The old palace clock at,Fontainbleau had yess commenced its evening chimes, when Napoleon,drawing his chair near the blazing hearth, gave himself freeiy up to one of those trifling conversations with Marie Louise, which he so loved to indulge in. “Sire,” exclaimed Duroc, opening the door of the chamber, “‘the Italian artist has arrived.”’ “Show him in, then, immediately,’ turned the emperor. The visitor entered. “You are welcome to France, my dear Canova,” said the master of Europe, “‘but how pale and thin you have become since I last saw you! Decidedly you must quit Rome and come todwell with usin Paris; the air of our capita! will restore your heaith and embonpoint. ‘“‘Look,’’ be added, pinch- ing the flesh and rosy cheek of Mary Louise with his small white hand, “look how healthy we are in France!” “Sire,” returned the sculptor, ‘“‘tyou must attribute my bad health to study, not to the climate of my country. Allow me, I beseech you, to return to Italy as soon as I have finished the bust which you have ordered me to execute.” “Diable a l'homme!’’ cried the Emperor, *‘to refuse to live near me. See, Louise! he has no other ambition than to be the first sculptor in the world, and he is all impa- tience to leave us and return to chip marbie at Rome, and produce some new work equal- ly sublime to that at Paris, the Terpsichere, mad Danseusé, the Venus, or the Magda- en!’ The conversation now became general, and a variety of topics were discussed. “I have 60,000,000 of subjects,” said Na- poleon, smiling; “eight or nine hundred thousand soldiers and 100,000 horses. ‘The Romans themseives pe’er reckoned so inany. ] have contested forty battles. At that of Wagram I fired 100,000 cannonballs away, and this lady, who was then Archduchess of Austria, would fain have seen me fal! before one of them.”’ “Il etre pien frai,” said Marie Louise, prettily affecting her natural accent. “I shonid think,” added Canova, softly, “that things are now much altered!” “Oh! cela est bein vrai!” exclaimed the Empress warmly, speaking, this time, the best French in the worla, and raising the hand of Najwieon to her lips, who put his arm round the waist of his young wife and forced her to sit on his knees. “Bah! bah !’’ said he, as his blushing partner slightly re- sisted. “‘Canuva is our friend. Were he not, lam sure his tender and impassioned heart would rejoice to see a menage so hap- py. Louise,” he added, “I will tell you a story, of which you shall guess the hero, and then you will see if there is anv harm in my toying with you before Canova ;’and,still —_— the Empress a prisoner, he com- menced: “In ibe province of Treviso there is a lit- tle village called Possagno. . 1 shall open my tale there, for in this place my lero passed his infancy. His father, an architect, died at the age of twenty-seven, and his mother remarried Sarteri de Crespauo. The child, then about four years old, was named An- tonio, and he dwelt with his stepfather; but he was harshly treated, and was at last sent to pass an autumn at Pradazzi, with one of his friends, namea Faliero. ‘luis aequaint- ance,remarking the intelligence of his young Visitor, and the instinct with which he mold- ed a lew clay images, placed him as a pupil with a scholar of moderate talent named Torretto. “ig it possible!’ interrupted Canova, con- founded, *‘your Majesty knows, then, the inost minute details of wy private life?” “Ana of many others.”’ returned Napo- leon, with a smile, as he continued: ‘*Torretto was a severe master, although a good one, and exercised a strict surveillance over his favurite pupil; nevertheless, he could not prevent his occasionally stealing from the atelier te dance at the fetes in the vicinity. He was then sixteen years old. One day, during the vintage, he feil in with a joyous troop of peasant girls, clad in their best habits in honor of a jour de vendange:; and things so feil out that one of them, named Bettina Biasi, finished by placing her arm Within that of Antonio, and ail that evening they danced togetber in the Jaran- tella.”’ A sigh é@scaped from Canova’s breast. “Bettina,”’ he continued, *‘was but four- teen. Her large eyes sparkled like globes of fire; my twv bands would have been too large to span ber slender waisi; and more beautiful hair was never seen than hers. Weil. all went on smoothly and they met often; they formed projects of warriage, and the union was neayly completed between them, when Torretto and Faliero learned for the first time what was passing. They fore- saw that this warriage would destroy the brilliant career of their protege. One night they both entered Antonio’s chamber and ordered bim to follow them. In spite of his tears, his resistance aud his grief, they car- ried him to Veuice, and there, during one en- tire year, they kept a strict watch over him, rée- -and compelied bin w seek in his noble art that consolation which ‘the pure and deep caverns of memory’ denied him. _ ; “Time, however, flew on with his untiring wings, and the bright repuiation of the young sculptor gradually deveioped itself. He be- came rich and celelnated, and Volpato played his cards su well that his pupil . thought much less ef Betiina Biasi, and oc- cupied himself much more with Domenica, the handsome, coguetting daughter of the engraver. A imarriage was spoken of, but as Demonica was only thirteen. years of age, they betrothed the two lovers, and the nup- tiais were postponed until the following year. Alas, for the afiection of a flirt! One ear afterward Domenica married Raphael orghani. The forsaken lover nearly sank beneath the cruel biow that his faise in- tended had brought upon him.” Canova ha: fallen into a profound reverie, and appeared nv longer to a syliabie of what was passing around him. The em- peror continued: “His physicians and friends advised him to try the benefit of his native air. He de- perme then; but on the way the long-slum- ring thoughts of his almost-forgotten Bet- tina arose again, and he pic her once more so young, so beautiful, so disinterested in her love, and more gay and laughing than ever. : “No sooner had he ht the first glimpse of the church tower of © than, too wling ret- tura, he sprang to the ground and reached the gates of the little town by a short foot- path. But his arrival had been anticipated, and acrowd of young people, awaiting his approach, pressed forward to welcome him, making the country resound with their joy- ous riras. He could not address them, for his heart was too full, and tears were stream- ing from his eyes.

Bettina! ami Bettina!’ eried Canova. for it was the fair girl herself,”’ Ah, sire, sire!” interrupted Canova, ‘for pity’s sake do not proceed further with a re- cital that awakens in me so many cruel sou- venirs.”’ But Napoleon felt gratified at the impres- sion Le was producing; the sculptor was deeply affected, and Marie Louise was /is- ten ng with intense interest. : Hear the remainder, Louise,” said he, addressing himseif entirely to the Empress. We are approaching the denouement, and it is worthy the rest of the story. Five years had diminished nothing of Bettina’s beanty. She was pale, itis true, and resembled one of Canova’s own white marble statues, of which some whimsical artist had colored the hair and eyes. ‘Oh, Bettina!’ he exciaimed, leading her alittle apart from the throng that was pressing around him; ‘vou will par- don my ingratitude, will you not? you will render me that happiness of which I am so littie worthy? I have but seen you to find all our holy and fervent love of other days revived!’ ’ s ‘* *l suffered much, saidtthe beautiful girl, in a voice of deepemotion; ‘I suffered much, Antonid mio,when I learned you were about tu marry Domenica; and yet, my friend, | knew that the humble peasant giri of Pra- dazzi—that the betrothal of the apprentice Antonio—would be ill received as the wife of the celebrated sculptor Canova.

See the effect I have just produced, thanks to the in- formation you brought me from Italy a week back. Adien, Canova!” he added, laying his hand on the shoulder of the sculptor. “Occupy yourself with the bust, and when you have finished it return to Italy if you will. Ab! the Emperor’s trade is a rude ohe, and it is not often I can enjuy a fireside conversation with my wife and friend, as [ have done this evening. - Allons, M. le Duc,” and he left the apartinent, his evening the Empetor, Marie Louise and Canova passed in the same room where, on the 11th ef April, 1814, Napoleon signed his abdication.

From Peck’s Suan. “Hello,” said the grocery man to the bad boy, as he came in lovking sick at heart and all broke up. “‘How is your muscie this morning ?”’ , “Allright enough,” said the boy, with a look of inquiry, as though wondering what was coming next, “Why?” “O, nothing, only I was going to grind the hatchet and some knives and things, this morning, and thought maybe you would like to go outin the shed and turn the grind- stone fur me, to develop your muscles. ‘Turn- ing a grindstone is the healthiest thing a boy can dv.” “That is all right enough,” said the bad boy. as he took up a sweet cracker, ‘‘but please take a good lowk at me.

Do I resemble a good littie boy that can’t say ‘no,’ and goes offand turns a grindstone half a day for some old duffer, who pays him by giving him a handful of green currants, or telling him he will be a man some day, and the boy goes off one way with a iame back, while the good man gues the other way, with a sharp scythe and a chuckle at the softness of the buy?

The Growing Popularity of the Mar- riage Kelation in kngtand. ¥rom the London World. One of the reasons that may be assigned for the growing popularity of marriage is the increased amount of liberty permitted to both the parties to the matrimonial contract. For the lady marriage is’ signal for emanci- ation. For the husband it dees not uni- ormly niean the surrender of his literty. Young unmarried women have no chance against their married rivals, and the conse- quence is that the tone of girls who are am- bitivus of being wives is distinctly lower than itused to be. The nymphs who de- sire to don with as little delay as possible the myrtle and orange flowers, the lace and tulle, assume ang extraordinary fast- ness, and, in their toilets andin other mat- ters, emulate the tactics and wiles of those who bave already invested their finger with the counubial circlet. Thus it may be truth- fully said that the social advantages which marriage confers are indirectly not of un- mixed benefit to the marriageable portion of the feminine community. In other words, because our wives enjoy themselves more our daughters seek to control themselves less. ‘The change, however, that has taken | place inthe general estimate of the condi- tious and obiigations of marriage is due quite as much to extra-matrimonuial as to watrimonial causes. The whole domestic system of the English people has changed during the last three or four decades. There is po kind of domestic tie which has not, to some extent, relaxed its hold. Families undergo the inevitable disintegrating pro- cess at an earlier veriod in their corporate existence than used to be thecase. Par- ents find that, in the crush and fever of the social competition, they can see compara- tively little of their offspring. The duties which fathers and mothers were once careful themselves to discharge are now vicariously performed by goyernesses, nurses, school- masters, and taturs. Yet, greatiy as life has multiplied its excitements, monotony is still one of its banes. Because the claims of s0- ciety are more nuwerous and exacting, It is not, unfortunately, the case that society it- self is more enjoyable. In this way it comes to pass that husband and wife, in an ever in- creasing degree, pursue independently their own course, and the principle of conjugal toleration is cuitivated at the expense of con- jugal fidelity. ‘Lhe augmentation of cases ip the divorcee cuvurt is said to be due to the pop- ularity of the tribunal, not among the upper, but the lower classe; of society. Hence it is argued the former are, notwithstanding any appearances which might seem to warrant a euntrary conclusion, ethically superior to the other. Would it not, as a matter of fact, more true to say that the weli-to-do under- stand better and practice more consistently the doetrine of reciprocal forbearauce? Under these circumstances nothing can be more unlikely than that a political reformer will be tempted to lay sacrilegious hands upon the institution of marriage. ‘The sub- ject is one which dues not come within the purview of legisiation. There is no specific ' benefit to be conferred or grievance tu be re- dressed, and any attemptto lessen the re- 7 are Paget of marriage wonid be foiled by the public opinion of the country. Marriag in the present day means the extension and the emphasis of the opportunities which are at the disposal of two persons to ve comfort- able or uncowfortable, happy or miserable, as the ease may be. A readjustmeut of the law in the sense which Radicalism is said to centemplate could not prejudice any com- pensating good. Afterall, it is not merely the fear of scandal, but the humiliation of publishing to the world that two people have hopelessiy bungled exist- ence which keeps a number of men and women otherwise well qualified for it out of the divorce court. Once make that tribunal easier of access than it now is, or provide fresh machinery which will accomplish all that this tribunai does, and a positive premium would be placed on matrimonial feuds of the most irrecuncilable and, as they would frequently prove, of the must flimsy kind. Somehusbands and wives continue lovers throughout their lite. Others are mutualiy enraptured at first and mutualiy bored afterward. COtlers, on the contrary, failing during the early years of their part- nership to aecowmvdate themselves to each other, hit uff an admirable wodus vivenat a little later. but in no one of tuese instauces can it be supposed that any limitation of the matrimonial contract would tend to improve its terms while it was in legal existence. For the majority of husbands and wives wedlock is a secial and moral discipline. The qualities which it develops.in either are exactiy thuse that. are useful, and indeed necessary in other relations of life. This is not the romantic view tu take of marriage, but is a sound and practical one, and so jong as warriage remains a good working institution no attempt to curtail itor to shear it of any of its honors is likely to be made, or if made to prove effectual.

The instance of the greatest eccentricity I have met with lately is the wearing of mus- lin sunbonnets in the Paris streets. The foundation is light blue, pale strawberry dink or écru, and the trimming spiral ruch- ings of white or tinted lace.

The new Henri 11. hats and. their prede- cessors, the Girondins, have nothing objec- tiomably extravagaht about them, if only they were a little more becoming. The stiff- ness Of the brim is very wuch against them. Such as they are, they represent a very im- portaut phase of millinery fashions, but they cannot be cumpared to the feminine pretti- ness Of the caputs. Wings are more in favor than ever tor their adornment, and stiff feathers mixed with the light plumage of the lyre bird or secretary. Gray hats have white, dark biue, paic yellow, brown and fawn, flaming pink, black, iron gray or dove | evivored wings.

NORTHWESLERN SCENERY. : Mount Tacoma, Monarch of the North- ern Mountains. Senator Edmunds in Portlana Oregonian. J absolutely never believed there was any- thing in America comparable in grandeur to the scenery L have seen on my necessarily brief visitto Mount Tacoma. The access, thanks to the well-cut trails made by the en- gineer of the Nortnern Paeifie road, {is easy, and will be made &@»s easy as a carriage road, or pearly, within a month from now. ‘To express half of my admiration for the tran- scendent grandeur ofevery part of the scen- ery, aud especially of the giacier, in all the features found in such phenomena, it would be impossible to find words. Certainly no Alpine glacier exceis it in perfection, and yet, asl was given to understand, it is the least, in point of size, of all that have been discovered vu this mountain. IL ecannot help saving that lam thoroughly convinced that no resurt in the United States will be so much suuglit alter as this When once p-ople come to kuow that what men cross the At- lantic to see can be seen in equal splenuor, ir nut surpassed, at home. I hear duubts expressed as to whether Mount Tacoma can be ascended; buta steady head, a sure foot, a reliable alpenstock and a little determination could probably accum- = wiat is of course a very daring feat. New Tacoma has a fortune in the fact that it is the best point from which to start for this, the grandest of ail American mountains. If Switzerland is rightiy called the play- ground of Europe, I ain satisfied that around the base of Mount Tacoma will becume a prominent place of resort, not for Ameri- cans only, but for the worid besides. Nuth- ing can be, to me at least, more enjoyable than the gradual approach to the inner circle of the court where the monarei of our north- ern mountains reigns supreme. Lhe enwtions stirred in one’s breast completely defy ail the powers of language to express. When we reached the foot of the giacier, fvotsore and weary as we were, I could not help pausing in breathless silence as we reviewed this majestic mass of ice, imbedded in tie bosom of this gigautic monarch among the Aips. Ifit was not the grandest of the group, as we were informed, it was enough taguifieence for us.

From the San Francisco Chronicle. An unquestionabie case of genuine leprosy was presented at the Health Office yesterday. The subject was a Swede, who bad the ap- pearance of being forty or forty-five years of age, aithough he wight have been wucl) younger, 30 ytterly dues this dread disease destruy the ordinary indications that denote one’s stage of life. Formerly he was a sailor, trading ae China and the East Indies, where aud a mouth like the coral beds of the Orient! | | by long abd copstant tulercourse and con- | tact with those leprous mations he absorbed the taint of the disease. For sume years past he has been residing in dau Franeisey, | guing out throngh the country during the | summer tou work as a@hiarvest hand. The disea ¢ began to develop itself while be Was in Merced county, and he went to the county hospital there, where, the physicians being | unfamiliar with leprosy, treated hiim for | another complaint, but as the disease with- | stood all their remedies and steadily ad- | vanced, they became suspicivus of its true character, and wrote to Dr. Meares, the health officer of Sau Franci-co, as the best | anthority on this coast tu such Cases, and sent the man hither to be examine. When Dr. Meares examined him yesterday he had po hesitancy in prenouncfng it an unmistakable cuse of genuine jeprosy, and | as it is nut to the interest of the State that persons thus afflicted should be scaticred about among the patients in the diifereut county hospitais, he was sent to the pest- house here. ‘Lhisis the second case of iep- rosy in which the patient was a white man, that has vecurred here. ‘lie other was a native of Vhio, whe fvliowed tue sea for | the police reperer. | i i i many years, spending a great portion of the) time in China aud the China seas.

The Swede whem Dr. Meares examined yesterday wii doubtiess guiu the same way. Lis fingers are drawn out of their vatura! position, fir skiu has a leathery appearance, with nodu'es forming ati over his buddy, particulariy o. his face and forehead, which wears au un- natural cuvlor. His fate is sealed, and a hor- ribie fate it is, dying by degrees and rutting away by inches. H. ©. CARROLL has removed his insurance agency to 05 North Third street. | A BITTER REVENGE.
