The Government paper at Havana WESTFIELD'S SENSATION. Two. Young Girls Subjected to Cruel and Mysterious Assaults. By Telegraph to the Post-Dispatch. Newark, N.J., November 29.—People in North Westfield, a little hamlet in Union County, are gos- siping about strange happenings in the residence of H. J. Holmes, er., an old and respected citizen. He owns the farm, but his wife and son take charge of it,and he works at carpentering. His daughter Hattie, 11 years old, and his niece, Lillie Holmes, 3 years old, are persons about whom the mystery hangs. They have been found at different times tied up by the neck or feet, gagged and bound, half of nearly all her clothing securely tied. A week ago was found in the same condition, but uncon- in the garden. She said that some one had GRASPED HER AROUND THE WAIST, covered her face with cloth, and then carried her behind the barn, By the hands of the person she thought ber assailant was a man. Two s later Mrs. Holmes found the little girl in a water barrel at the end of the house, and the child was tied with a rope an . Mrs. Holines, whois a a intelligent woman, said last evening that tne ch dren are generally left alone in the house during the day and that it is at such time that the mysterious attacks are made. Hattie, her daughter, that a woman with a long biack veil, large hands and biack skirts dia it all. One day this woman caught the children in the cellar, smothered their cries, tied their hands and feet, put in their mou and then poured a stream of water upon them by usingaforce pump. They were found lying on the firor of the basement tied as described. Mrs. Holmes was at work in the barn atthe time. Henry and William F. Holmes, who are wheelrights at Milburn, volunteerea to watch for the mysterious woman and one day, while they were sitting on the porch they heard a noise in the kitchen. In afew minutes Mrs. Holmes went into the house and found Hattie hung up by her neok in the kitchen. Her feet and hands were tied together, a bandage was over her eyes anda cloth was drawn around her neck, so as to suspend her with ber toes.on the floor. A piece of fire wood lit was fastened on a tongue. A few days ago Holmes wert to the barn for a few minutes. On her return to the house, she says, she found the UNDER A FEATHER BED in the attic, and they were unconscious. When res- cued they could not expiain how they came to be in tion. Felter and his wife live across the road from Mrs. Holmes. They doodd . jobs for the Rev. Dr. Mofiitt of the Methodist Church, who formerly preached in the Third Street Methodist Church of den. The minister and his family live near the Holmes house, they have heard of the wmysterious happenings, but they can give no solution, Mrs. Holmes has seen Felter on ber stoop when she of the farm, and, it is said, the mysterious woman ouse. When clothing and jewelry were missed by Mrs. Holmes she had a search warrant issued for the purpose of examin- ing the Felter house. Before the constabie arrived at the Felter house, the missing articies were found the stoop of Mrs. Holmes’ residence. The Holmes amily are frightened, and the neighbors are puz- CILVIO POUBLE.

A’'New Phase of the War Against the Gam- ing Houses—James Rogers, Ex-Keno Room Keeper, on the War Path. _ For some time past. the gamblers who have been driven out of St. Louis have found a temporary lo’gment on the East bank of the river in East St. Louis. Keno and faro games have been run there with an openness and candor which spoke volumes for. the efficacy of the police. Poker rooms were nlso established. and St. Louis sports nightly passed over the big bridge to dalfy with the tiger in his jungle. tterly, however, Mayor Winton of East St. has pressed the police into taking action in the prémises, and after a vigorous ca ign the gamblers have been driven out and have been orced to came back home to St. Louis. Some of the gamblers have not taken kindly to this reoting out process, and all manner of vengeance has denounced by the exiles against the officers ofthe law. James Rogers, an e¢x-bar-keeper,. was arrested a couple of weeks since at the instance of Mayor Winton charged with keepinga gambling room on Dyke avenue, Rogers walked into Win- ton’s office on Broadway last evening at about 8 o'clock, where he found the mayor reading the paper. Mr. Winton looked up and asked bis visi- tor what he wanted. For reply Rogers DREW A 44-CALIBER REVOLVER from his pocket, aimed at Winton's breast and pulled the urigger, cursing Winton at the same time | and telling him he meant to kill bim and Aldermen Shea and Hiil. Fortunateiy the weapon missed fire, but Rogers stood for some time with the pistol aimed at the Mayor swearin at§6 him and threatening him. rs. Winton, who was in the next room, heard the noise and came into the room. She waiked towards Rogers, ordering him off the premises, and he retreated slowly before | her, still keeping his pistol pointed at the Mayor. Rogers backed down the stairs and out of the house. Later in the evening a basket of meat, which Rogers had laid aside when he made up his mind ¢ drop in and kill) Winton,.and which he subsequently forgot, was fuund, and sent to him by a poms officer. While Rogers was | in the house he told the Mayor that ne had killed ofe manin St. Louis and another in Kenwicky. Rogers has been the barkeeper for some time at the saloon at the Nationa! Stock Yards, but he abandoned this situation to opena keno room oa Dyke avenue. Rogers seems to have STARTED OUT UPON THE WAR-PATH early yesterday afternoon. At tbat time he met the City Attorney of East St. Louis, Mr. O’Melvany, and cursed and abused that official roundly, keeping his hand on his pistol t.¢ while, but not drawing it. The above statemient of the fracas is given very neariy in Mayor Winton’s own woras. James Rogers is now out on bond to appear and answer the charges of keeping @ gambling room. Tie City Hall officiais in East St. Louis are very reticent about the trouble, and decline to give any account of it, and even Mayor Winton himself seem- edi to be exceedingly adverse to making a statement of the assault. Attorney R. A. Hobbert has notified Clerk Rhein that he would enjoin against the reading of the tax levy on the County Clerk's books. A driver employed by Peter Walsh, a manufact- urer, of St. Louis, was arrested this morning by Inspectors Stack and McManus for not having a wagon license, . THIEVING OFFICIALS. A Legislative Committee's Still Hunt Re- sults in Startling Discoveries. RicuMonp, Va., November 29.—The General As- sembly to-day passed, over the Governor's veto, the electoral board bill. This is the second time this year that the Legislature has had to dothis, the Court of Appeals having decided the first bill passed last winter to be unconstitutional. The committee which bas heen investi- gating the charges against Attorney-Gen- eral Blair of exacting illegal fees from the State, submitted a report to-day, in which, among other things, they disclose the fact of the discovery of the defaication in the office of the Auditor of Public Accounts, books in that office failing to show proper credits for taxes paid by the clerks of county courts on law processes. The amount involved, so far, is $1,500, -but if these irregularities show up in the same proposition in all counties, the amount will reach from $33,000 to $30,000. LUCKY MURDERERS.

The Result in Favor of the Kind Supplied From the Waterworks— Well Water Large- ly Contaminated by Sewage—Cisteru Wa- ter Occasionally Pure but Often Insidi, ously Dangerous to Health--The Wash- ington, D. C,, Experts Report---What the Local Officials Say. The cholera seare of last summer, the possibility of its recurrence with graver grounds next summer, and the wide prevalence at the present time of aymotic diseases, notably of diphtheria, make the consideration of anything new in the sanitary line of especial interest. Just what causes the preva- lence of these diseases at present is not known, and the Health Department is supplied witn so niggardly an amount of money, that its use- fulness as an intrument for sanitary investigation is kept at the lowest standard. The fact, however, that, last summer, Health Commissioner Stevenson carried outa system of chemical analysis of a large number of welis and cisterns, whose waters were being used by the public, is a very clear indi- cation that the Department considers that the quality of the city’s water supply has a great deal te do with the city’s sanitary condition and, hence, any result of official investigation relating to that important article of public con sumption will be founed of great value. The report published below will be considered all the more Valuable by many because of absolute impar- tiality of its author. A report making a compari- son b the four kinds of water used in this city—river water, hydrant water, well water and gees oe aha supplied by city officials, might, though undoubtedly with injustice. be looked upov by ma as unreliabie; but this suspicion cannot be entertained regarding the following report whéh re nts the scientific researches of ove of the national analysts situated in the city of Wash- ington: War DEPARTMENT, ( SURGEON GENERAL'S OPFFICn, WasuHineton, November 19, 1884 To the Surgeon-General, U.

It will be seen that the hydrant water con no free ammonia, and, for a river water, ap @dmissable amount of albuminoid am- monia—whije the river water contained an admussa- ble amount of free ammonia and a large amount of sibuminoi*® ammouia—just doubie the amount fqund in the hydrant water. The point of interest presented here is the means of purification. - Is it due, in whole or in part, to ox- idation of organic matter in its passage Six miles of iron pipe, which it may well be conceived may yield up some of the oxygen of the oxide found upon its surface, to oxidation b @ration in its rapid and turbulent passage; or degree, to it due, in some the method said to be in use there of precipitating or otherwise acting the rganic matter present on 0 by salt of iron at the reservoir? regret now that a oie was not asked for from the reservoir. It would of interest to pursue this subject farther, and I would respectfully sug- oe Leap it be done when we get settled weather The cistern water is, to say the least, of suspi- cious quality, while the well water is simply poison- ous. ligures in the well water case are interest- ing and instructive. The free ammonia, it will be observed, is marked nil, while the albuminoid am- monia return is not at all incompatible wi bh a water of good quality. But the chlorine at once casts a grave suspicion upon it, which is confirmed by the qualitative tests for nitrous and nitric acid salts. he fact is that the noxious organic matter had, be fore the water reached me, passed by oxidation irom the organic to the inorganic state, which ex- piains tue sma!}amount of albuminoid ammonia and the strong reaction for the nitrous and nitrio acid Sasi, these and the chlorine estimation being mutually confirmatory. The well should be condemned.

HEALTH COMMISSIONER STEVENSON was also seen. “He read toe report made by the Washington expert, and remarked at once that it was very favorable to the water which is being by the majority of the people “But,” he remarked, “do you know that there are 14,000 households in this city which do not use the bydrant water which is here so favorab | upon, They depend for their water supply upon cisterns, Wells and the river. Of course all the who hive on or near the river front do not use the water, but there are many who, when they have for water for any purpose Whatever, go to the river's edge, di in the bucket and get asuppiy. The a is, of Course, disas- trous from a sanitary point af view.

Of ecourse the water taken direct from the river is unhealiby, but then it’s water and costs nothing and the poor peopje will continue to use it,"” “What about that report upon the Franklin ave- nue well water?” “I wish we could abolish the use of well and cis- tern water altogether. Some of them are healthy, but the result of the i which I caused to be made last summer show that many of themare uot It is impossible to keep wells pure where they are sunk in the soil or into such limestone rock as this city is built over. Let me cite a cate in point. The Hogan quarry hole which we are now filing up containg . considerable which for some time we have known to be Very un- healthy, That ig the reason We are filling it up. We had reason to believe that the wells used by persons living on Madison street near there were really sup- plied from this quacsy Bare and we very soon had practical demons . During the heat of sum- mer the water in the hole BECAME VERY OFFENSIVE and I caused twelve —_ of copperas to be dumped into it, Almost im ately afterwaada we beard complaints from the persons Owning weils near-by. The water from one Ofthem was submitted to a chemist living in the neighborhood, who devided that it contained chalybeate. The water “got worse,” according to the people using ii, and next day the same chemist made another ex- amination and decided that it contained a large | pete of copperas. The fact was thus fully emonstrated that wie ple on M street had all «long been using water from this quarry hole, which ig one of the dirtiest and most offensive in the city. The water in the hole is turbid, but by the time it reached the wells, after its passage between the rocky strata and threugh the soil, it was clear and ht, so that it: pected .the very practical demonstration. I have described to con- vince the people of what was the true source of their water supply. Its clearness and brightness, of course, meant nothing from a sanitary point of view, the filtering of wacer not destroying or remov- ing the matter withm it which is detrimental to the health of those using it.” ‘In what part of the city are these wells most used?” “They abound all over the city, and_ ina large majority of cases the water they supply is not fit for use. Within 150 feet of tae part of the City Hall where we are now sitting there are visible tive of therm, not ove of which containg bealthy water. The cisterns are mostly used in the northern and southera parts of the city. A large proportion of a also ought to be abandoned, as they are un- healthy.” THE SHERIFF'S SLATE. Henry F. Harrington Qualifies as Sheriff, und Names His Deputies. There were 538 app‘ications for thé thirty-two va- cancies in the Sheriff's office which Sherif? Henry F. Harrington has been called upon to fill. The work of selection has been a very difficult one, and Mr. Harrington's friends have sympathized with him very sincerely in the thankless task in which ever since the election, he bas been engaged. It isthe common testimony of all who have had applications in that nothing would be fairer or more courteous than the manner in which their claims were reviewed by the new Sheriff, who has devoted an unexampled amount of time and atten- tion to sifting and passing upon every request. When it is remembered that hundreds of these names were ar, petitions on which the very best people in St. s figured, the difficulty may be appreciated. ‘ At 2 o’clock.to-day the new Sberiff was sworn in before the Circuit Court sitting in general term.

After the in- auguration he will be the silent partner. No officer amounts to so little while the President lives as the . Vice-President. Mr. Biatne carried Pennsylvania by a plurality of 80,000. He ought not, under the circumstances, to Hanoi, and Haiphong, the same will be invested missioners, Viceroy, and Futai, and they will not break their word. A special proclamation.” Ayone the other things which London fs finding to talk about is the suit of Madam Cardinali against Mr. Horace Lennard, “a literary men.” Madam Cardinali, who is very well known in society, wrote two stories. “Filipo”’ and “Mario,” which ehe sent to her uncie, Lieut t-General Adderson, wno was to get them published. The General, in a gen- eral search for “a literary man,” found Mr. Len- nard, who undertook the task of getting the MSS. printed, “Fillipo” was by his exertions accepted and printed by the Ladies’ Pictorial, Mr. Lennard with hereditary rank by the Throne. These re- | wards are promised by the above named High Com- | receiving and pocketing the money paid for it. It is for this money that the action was taken. | Mr. Lennard claims that it was his understanding that all Madam Cardinali wanted was the fame and renown, that the cost was to go tohim asa literary broker. The jury failed to | agree, and the case is to be tried over again. ! ’ , Tae pleadings and affidavitsin full in the suit of ; the Earl of Lytton against Miss Louisa Devey and | others, to restrain these defendants from publishing the letters of the late Lord Lytton to Lady Lytton, form an interesting part of our latest foreign ex- changes. A great deal has already been telegraphed about this s iit, which followed the publication from advance sheets by the Pall Mail Gazette of some of the letters, which were very absurd. Miss Devey, who is Lady Lytton's executriz, claims that the publication is made necessary to defend the character of her dead friend.which, as she says, was wantonly assailed by that friend's son, the Far! of Lytton, in his book, *‘The Life Letters and Literary Remains of Edward Bulwer, Lord Lyt ton.” Miss Devey swears that the Earl “by bis great literary skill has gained the sympathies of the reader entirely for bis father and against his mother, that by bringing forward the good point and concealing the bad points of his fether’s char- acter, and by insinuating that his mother was of a hard and shal'ow disposition, wanting in true femi- nine qualities, he had produced a false and misleading impression upon the public mind, prejudicial to his mother,” and which, as Lady Lytton's executor, Miss Devey claims she had the right and the evidence to undo. A great many extracts from the Eari's book were read in court. and the case attracted a deal of at- tention, but Vice Chancellor Bacon granted the in- junction, and the letters cannot be published in England. A Colored Republican Editer on the New Situation. From the Huntsville (Ala.) Gazette, Republican Organ of the Colored voters af that State. There can be no more slavery in this country. The majority of the Southern people themselves, we believe, would not now sustain it by a vote. Slavery is a relic of the past. The further we ad- vance from it the deeper it is buried by the strides of progress, Christianity and enlightenment the world of to-day is making. Let us all consider it buried and turn our atten- tion to the new duties and trusts of the new state of affairs. | Presidents may come and go, parties continue to be up and down, but life and ita duties remain with us, and each individual is President in his little cir- cle. You will find sunshine and shadow, emiles and frowns in your path, whoever is President. Follow the path of duty, live honestly and economically and the reward that comes to all good citizens will come to the black man, even ifa Democrat sits in the Presidential chair. It arguea well forthe Democratic party and the Southern people that they openly assure the world that they repel the idea of wanting slavery or of abridging the colored man’s civil rights. It shows progression. Let that party deserve the good will of the negro both by its profession and its deeds. This done, our country, especially the South, will be @ great and fitting example of the powerof Chris- tian civilization in cementing friendship of man- kind and securing peace and great prosperity toa country and its Christian inhabitants. A Genuine Reform, - From the New York Worid. We do not believe that any honest man who is serving the Government efficiently and with faith- fulness and integrity ina positian not affecting the political character of the Administration need fear that he will be driven from his place. The Demo cratic. party is pledged to give the country thor- oughly good government, to take care that all cor- rupt practices are uprooted, and that all public rob- bers are brought to punishment. There are to be no more Star Route robberies, no more bogus pros- ecutions, no more compromises with criminals for the enrichment of the compromisera. But there is not to be any driving out of tried and trusty public servants who are doing their full duty to their em- ployers, the people; at least, not with the consent or approval of this journal. Strayed or Stolen. From the Philadelphia Times. A Presidential candidate known as Bonnie Ben Butler, who has not beer seen or heard from since the 4th of November. When last heard from he was traveling in @ gorgeous palace car, well stocked with wines and edibles. and making speeches from the rear platform as the Labor Presidential can- didate and predicting the election of Blaine Ashe never was known in the past to be gilent for twenty consecutive days, it is feared that he has met with foul play. Informationef his where. abouts will be gratefully received and no questions asked by James G. Blaine, Augusta, Me, or by Rev. Dr. Burchard, Murray Hill Chapel, New York Oity. No flowers. Crying Stop Thief From the New York World. That venerable coot, Attorney-General Brewster, intimates in his report that there is such an in the District of Columbia as “jury-fixing.” He makes so bold as to say thata few gentlemén gup- port their families and grew rich in the practice of somewhere that there was such en. industry in Washington City as “Attorney-General fixing,” too. ; POLITICAL DRIFT. Ir is rumored that Gail Hamilton is knitting e pair of ear-warmers for Dr. Burchard. Tar burning of St. John in effigy is destroying a to the poor. Ir will be a good many years before Ben Butler again has so much fun ia @ palace car at somebody this nefarious profession. We bave seen it intimated |- good many old clothes that might have been given | have done less. His position on the tariff won him the support of the ‘“‘protected™ bosses in that State, many of whom bulidozed their workingmen into voting the Republican ticket by threats of lockouts and discharge. Tue re-enslavement scare is bearing legitimate frujt. A Virginia negro, having stolen some small articles, circulated the story that he was to be seized An4é sold, and when the officers came after him the colored people rose en masse and drove them off with bricks and bowlders. Tas Vicksburg Herald says: “The Cincinnati Commercial Gazette, among other lies of wonderful dimensions, says ‘there isa reign of terror in the South.’ The negro laborers are reaping a rich har- vest in the cotton and sugar flelds, and they know of no terror whatever. They are many times better of than the Hocking Valley miners and other op- pressed laborers in the North.” THE average expenditure upon the navy, Admiral Porter says. has been about $16,000,000 a year for the last fifteen years. This, according tothe Boston Herald, is $6,000,000 more than is annually spent by Germany or Italy, $10,0.0,000 more than is spent by Spain, and half as much as 1s spent by France. The Herald adds that any of these Powers could biow us out of water. Neither of these. powers, however, is handicaped by a Bill Chandler and a Jobn Roach ship yard. MEN OF MARK.

To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch: Being a life-long Republican, I am naturally much pained at the position our old chieftain Gen. eral appears to be in, as, indeed, are all his friends The papers report that in a public speech made some time ago Gen. Sherman asserted that he had seen letters written by Jefferson Davis showing that Davis was a conspirator against American liber. ties; that his object eras not merely to establis!) an- other Republic—to make two Republics instead of one, as is usually thought, but to make bimseif dic tator. Gen. Sherman said: _ “Jeff Davis was a conspirator, whose aim was to use the Confederacy as a fulcrum with which he could operate against other sections of the country, looking toa@ ractical dictatorship. I have seen let. ters that few others have seen. I have seen a letter from Jefferson Davis toa man whose name I can. not mention, because he isa United States Sen. ator. I know Davis’ writing, and saw his signature, and in that letter he said he would turn Lee's army against any State that might attempt to secede from the Southern Confederacy.” Jeff Davis publiciy denounces this as false, and boldly says: “If Gen. Sherman has access to any letters of mine which will sustain his accusation let him pro- duce them or wear the brand of a base sianderer” Now. the way General Sherman treats this is what makes his old friends feel bad. He sors “I do not propose to get into a ficht with Jef Davis.” And then he quarrels with the newspapers for reporting his speech. He says: “This wnols trouble has grown out of the mewspapers; no re. porter should have been present when J made tha speech. I consider the reporting of that speech as a breach of honor.” Now, this sort of taik is very injurious to General Sherman. It licenses his enemies to sneer at him. “What,” say they, “are we to think of a man who will, ina public speech, slander another man anil then quarrel with reporters for publishing his speech?” For these reasons the friends of General Sherinan urge him to come out at once with that United States Senator's name who has Jeff Davis’ letter. We want that letter: we want that Senator's name. What right bas that Senator to keep such a letter a secret? What right bas a rebei itke Jeff Davis to such extreme delicacy at this late hour of the day’ Some people think it was a smai) matter that Jeff Davis wanted to split this country into two great republics, but if it can be proved that Jeff Davis wanted to enslave the Southern States and make himself their dictator, it wil: dethrone him at once and forever from the affections of his followers in the South, We want that ietter so bad that it caused as much mortification and pain when Cien- eral 8 ked as if he could not, or would not stand by his statement.

They ‘may be characteristically designated as the Conservative, the Radical and the “*Mugwump" tick- ets. The first is headed by Mr. Ashiey W. Cole, a popular and genial young reporter of the Herald; the second is headed by Amos Cummings of the Sun, whose renown is, perhaps, more than local. The bolt of the *““Mugwumps"’ seems to be grounded simply on the manver of the other pnomina- tions, and both of the first two gpecsing tickets are drawn uponin making up the third. Congressman- elect Merriman, the retiring president, is on ali three tickets for one of the Board of Trustees. Col. Coc. erilland F, A. Dunecka of the WorLD are also pop- ular candidates for the Board. John A. Greene, the handsome, black-eyed city editor of the Morning Journal, and David A. Sutton, the active and effi- cient news editor of the Wor.p. will probably be elected first and second vice ee respectively. A third vice-presidency is likety to fall two Hugh Farrar McDermott, whose “Biind Canary” and other “Poems from an editor's table” have extended his fame. Cbarle.

POKER AND ANTI-POKER, * which wasa lively dividing question last year, seems to have been relegated tot tomb of dead issues. Aside from a few little mild personalities (net worth mentioning im comparison with those leveled at Cieveland and Blaine), the fight made by the sev- eral candidates for the eighteen Offices of the club is waged entirely for abstract ideas. (None of the Officers are salaried.) “Let us go ahead and be great and powerfui!” is the slogan of one side, and “Letus play whist and be content with what we have!” ix the peaceful legend on the other banner. it looks now as if the “Go Aheads” would win. So, out of the 500 and odd Knights of the Quiil enrolled in the *}’*ress Gang,” there aré many whose digest- ion of turkey and mince pie to-day will be attenued with feve risa unrest. Uniixe the more aristocratic Lotus Club, the Press Club is not distinguished for its social ente:tain- ments, though some people may remember its his- torical banquet to Dickens and italess notable gas- fronomucal welcomes to Stanley, the African ex- jorer and Archibaki Forbes. But the dianer at elmonico’s | attended after mailing my last letter was really a remarkable and interesting occasion aod I nary | be perniitted to devote a little space to it. The best feature of the affair was Monsignor Capel's speech. Seldom has that banqueting bell. famed as it is for post-prandial cloquence, been the scene of more fervid, earnest, briluant and giowing ora- tory. .In the course of his remarks, the speaker dis- cussed the good and bad points of newspapers. As 1 listened, 1 could pot heip thinking that, figura- tively, MONSIGNOR CAPEL'S SPLECH a whoie, both in matter and man- cer, was an admirable type of what a rally good paper might be. Beginning with some gooi-humored pleasantries in reference to the five successful candulates in whose hovor the dinner was giveo, delicately mentioning each cor- rectly by name and adding metaphorical wmgs to their respective designations, he secured the entire sympathy of his hearers at once. Then he went on to assert the pride and pieasure he felt in the fact that his services on the English press entitled him t fraternal consideration as a@ “brother quill." Having kept the tables in a rear with his scintilla- as ' tions of wit for ten minutes or so, he related one amusing or instructive reminiscence after another, and, gradually becoming solemn, poured forth in a stream of lucid and graceful Engush, that received aided force and beauty from his rich, magnificent intonation, a sermon that must have spoken directly to the hearts and minds of all preseat— except “Joe” Howard. From affection he passed to eulogium, calling upon his bearers in most earnest language as priests of asecond order, destined to pake humanity better dnd nobler, hand in hand withthe priests of every religion. Remembering the extremely exalted character of the priestiy office in the view of the Roman Church, couid any- thing express higher consideration and honor for the press than this? And yet Joe Howard, to whom tbe prelate had ai uded with kindly and complimentary familarily, ho sooner got upon bis feet than, with an utter dis- regard for good taste, not to say good breeding, he sneered at religion and: its professions, told his fellow journalists that was the and curse or all their trade and got off an indecent story (hat was neither witty nor apropos, Joe is a good fellow at times, but his shinmg baid head is bot as serviceable asa pin’s head—it does not pre- vent him from going too far.

From the Courier Jowrna!. ; Presence of mind isa very rare quality in- deed. How few of those we meet, though ap- thy cool and perfectly self-possessed, Know ust what todé in an emergency. It is a good to have an active mind well stored with useful knowledge, but sometimes it is better to have a less expansive style of mind, and have it calm and unruflled ata time when it is needed. red poker Few A friend of mine once put a |! chip in the church plgte by inistake. peo- ple would have known what to do; but he just went to the pastor after the services were over and said he had the money with which redeem that chip. He told the minister that the chip was worth $) up town, an’ he would cash it at that price.

He wasa candidate for the Legislature and did not wish to offend the mother or lose the vote of the father, so he tried to turn the thing off as a joke by saying he duin’t nose it was there, He was terribly snowed under at the polls, and he deserved it, too. I am rather cool in a great emergency. Some years ago there was a shuoting affray in front of my oftice which terminated ‘atally, and no doubt it would have been stil! more so if it bad not been for my covl self-possession and un- daunted courage. The city editor, Mr. Barrow, was just re ing me a column puif in type of a new bank, and I was carefully revising his grammar with a large maliet and chisel, ‘when we heard a shot in Lront of the office. said, “barrow, that’s a shot.” H: sariel he guessed not, and went on reading the pull. Pretty soon some one said “bang !! '” again. In a loud tone of voice and about 44-caliber. Then everybody jumped for the stairs, printers andall. I saw that 1 could not get dowh the stairs in time to get shot so | rushed out on the balcony and fouud myself directly over the shootisis. Windy Smith was underneath and had no weapon, while a gambier was on top, armed with a beautiful pearl-handled, self- cocking Smith and Wesson barntone slo St, worth avout $25, including freight. There was a crowd of perhaps a hundred men standing arounu near by. Not too near, but just hear enough. No one seemed to know what it was best to do. Every one saw al once that it wasn’t right for those men to be shooting at each other and perhapsgiving needless pain, but nd oné seeined tohave any presence of mind. That wasthe state of things when [ came proudly forth upon the balcony. I saw what musi be done. “Gentlemen,” said I, in tones that rang out like a bugie-call, ‘take that man’s gun away. Can't you see that if you don’t disarm the gam- bler he is going to kill some one?” i se there was a slight pause, during which ey seemed to be perfectly willing that te Ps should be disarmed. Finaliy, see- ie that each man seemed to be waiting for the other, | called toa tall, siim man who stood right under me and told him to take aw ay the gambler’s revolver; but he said “‘No;” he was only a stranger in town, and the gambler was a tutal stranger to him. He wasn't acquainted with any one, and he didn’t want to seem of- fivious. But I didn’t lose my self~ control. I kept cail- ing on different ones to disarm the gambler un- til finally Baswell, the Sheriff, came along, and he did as I suggested. Of course Smith died of his wounds, but re. member the thousands of other lives in the town that were saved by this cool, brave act.

New Yors, November 27,--To the casual observer the every-day street scenes of a great city are the most ephemeral of things. They seem at first sight to endure for an hour or a day dnd then pass quiet- ly away to give place to new scenes, new incidents. But this is only at first glance, In reality, the only abiding permanent fixtures in city life are the queer, nondescript people that throng our streets. Old houses that have served for years and years as Jandmarks are torn down to make room for more pubstantial structures, and the intrusive elevated yailway forces its way into once quiet thorough- fares, changing their whole character and appear- avee. Resident streets are suddenly transformed into business blocks and outiying farm lands are pushed into the bustle of the aggressive city. A few of these permanent living institutions are given below. Pronounce the word Telegram with the accent on the last syllable, and the picture of the old man who sells papers in front.of the Wor.ip pffice is at once called to mind, Lis Ras AAS a A if. , ergs THE TELEGRAM MAN, He bas been there as long as the oldest inhab- jtant can remember, and. bas always called out the name Of the paper in the same way and the same number of times to the minute. The street boys callhim “Old Wax.” Why, nobody knows, but & makes him wild. and, throwing down his papers, he hobbles after them with his crutches and an ava- Jauche of e@rses. Jfis great forte is sitting out in the street until midnight with his never diminishing bundle of papers. There is something pathetic in the monotonous “Telegram, Telegram,” of the old mai.and the belated pedestrian is caught in spite of himself and perforce compelled to buy of the wncanny oll man. There is a tradition to the ef- fect that the old fellow gambled away his fortune the night before the Telegram was born, and with a few borrowed cents bought his first stoek of pa thenextday and has since never beeh then. as The rule man is the straightest one of all the Breei renders. His stand rauges from Fultou and roadway up to the Bridge entrance. ; —_y ‘*) “RULES—OKNLY TEN CENTs.” » He is something of a juggler, and in spite of the ‘urrying, jostling crowd manages to preserve the equilibriumn of a score of one-foot rules hung one Upon the other. For the past ten years he has os- wpa up and down Park Kow witb his long string : rules, but the oldest inhabitant cannot remember ~ have ever seen him make @ sale.

MGS ae St La tiga “ NEEDLEE-THREADEE-—-SAVE YER EYES.” | An apology. however, is due the reader for intro- duciug so “new” a person as the gentleman who sells the patent thimble with its attachment for mechanically threading a needle. He belongs to the shoddy aristocracy of street venders—is one of the nouveau riche, so to speak, and has been on the street barely five years. The rule man, the apple woman and even the tramp look down upon him as anew comer whose standing in street society has not yet been esta!) lished, and whom the old Knick- erbocker families who have peddled articles for twenty years cannot afford to recognize. He is let severely alone, and when, having made unusually big sales, he indulges in a meal at the Jim Fisk res- taurant, the tramps that frequent that Chatham street Delmonico’s turn a cold shoulder to him. In front of the new Potter building he takes his stand, soliciting with monotonous voice all passers-by to purchase the new invention. Constant threading of the needle has injured his eyesight, and every week he holds the object a littie farther from his far- sighted eyes. ‘ella de macarone, cheap—sella five cents de bunchba,”’ isthe war cry of the old fellow whose pict- ure follows: CANDIES AND CARAMELS. Taking bis stand near the corner of Ann street and Park row the Italian macaroon fiend makes periodic incursions into the surrounding business houses, re- lying for trade upon office boys and young clerks, whose penchant for sweet confections is well known. The caramels are the especial delight of the news- boys, who make frequent descents upon his basket, and while one of them buys a cent’s worth the oth- ers steal ten times as much. Then the old man charges down upon his enemies and a series of skir- mushes ensue. his strange street. warfare may be seen any afternoon in front of the Herald office. The Italian usually comes off second best and falls back upon a full stock of Italian curses. The cara- mel man's lot is not a happy one. a i i Headed | 13) yn i (aw I iit ‘4 D ; . pum VibltMudtiitg bait stat pitt ; ti ics oy ww e + ¥ ot > 5 : a - ey wi? . « eras ted ; 7 * not i 4 - - TWO ROLES. | rr ed Clara Morris in Article 47 and Miss Multon. Lizzie May Ulmer at Pope’s—Joe Murphy at the People’s—Variety at the Casino— Burlesque at the Standard — Theatrical Notes. The past week at the theaters showed very little change for the better in the business of the season. It does not compare at all favorably with the busi- ness of the same period last year. The burning of the Grand Opera House Sunday afternoon can be credited with a share of the blame, but this does not account for all of the poor business and the cause must be thrown into the batch of problems which is receiving the careful and unkindly attention of theatrical managers this season. ment of the week. was that of Miss Margaret Mather at the Olympic, On the whole the week, from an artistic standpoint, was a good one, but Miss Mather did not receive the support which her own merits and the excellence of her company and the performances themselves deserved, She is not yet a& great trage- dienne, nor does she reach the highest standard in ber emotional roles, but she is undoubtedly a clever and tal actress who should have been better apdreciated. She wa not really great in her tragedy roles, but every one of her performances were artistic successes and were thoroughly enjoyable. ese The Madison Square Company in “The Private Secretary”’ at Pope's labored under the disadvant- age of following a play of which it is an almost exact copy, the resemblance being varied only by the members of the caste and by a few changes in the business. The company did some very good work in the comedy, and, although the houses were not very large, ye they were thoroughly appreciative ane gained a great deal of enjoyment from the piay. ** A singular bit of accidental prophecy, which, I believe, has not been noticed, is to be found on Nat Goodwin's programme issued for the engagement at the Grand Opera House. Immediately after the date, “Sunday, November 22d,” was the quotation, “An event long to be remembered.” On that date “an event long to be remeinbered”™ in the burning of the theater actually occurred. ‘ The most notable en The Goodwin company labored undoubtedly under a disadvantage by having to —— sudden- ly to the Casino, but the loss could not have been reatin the existing state of theatrical matters. The house was filled to its utmost capacity on Thursday at both performances and the iences were excellent through the entire week, The ar- rangement by which Mr. Goodwin went to the Casino saved him from loss, and was beneficial to the theater, as it brought it to the notice of people ee oun doubtless otherwise not visit the house at aul. eee Pat Rooney, with his specialty company, at the Standard, and ‘“‘Zozo, the Magic Queen,”’ at the People’s, did not score anything remarkable in the way of successes. *s#f Next week the greatest event of the season so far will take place at the Olympic in the engagement of Miss Ciara Morris There was co» siderabie trouble in arranging so that Miss Morris could have the Olympic, but the matter has been amicably settled . — ag gon = = , ee Joe Murphy, who was booked for the m goes to tine Peseta’ where he will reoost las Dick comedy, *Kerry.Gow” and “Shaun Khue,” both of which are good of their kind, while “Only a Farmer's Daugh- ter’ has been withdrawn from the People's to make room for him.

On the subject of low prices, which has a pe- culiar interest to the public and theatrical people at present, the Clipper has this to say: “The air is full of it, and it must come.

The Lady Who Will be the Hostess at the Executive Mansion. -— —_ An Accomplished and Caltured Lady—The President-Elect Not a Society Man—Mrsa, Blaine Preparing fora Brilliant Season— The Hendricks-McDonald Feud--Capital Gossip. Special Correspondence of the Post-Dispatch. WasHINGTON, November 27.—“The society people need not look to Grover Cleveland's administration with either anxiety or expectations” said a gentle- man of this city who had just come from a visit to the President-elect at Albany. ‘He is not. going to trouble society or allow society to trouble him. Of course he will do whatever is absolutely necessary to be done in a social way, in the way of public re- ceptions and that sort of thing, but that is about all. He will bring his unmarried sister with him, and she will do the honors of the White House, But as for Cleveland himself, he is not in any sense a so- ciety man, and all that the social world sees of him will be very little. He is one of the sort of fellows that like to sit down ina room with a half dozen friends over afew bottles and a box of Cigars. There will be a good many evenings of this sort at the White House, but not many social events of im- portance.” “Is it settled, then, that bis unmarried sister is to come with him?” “Yes, that is the present arrangement. He has talked it over with her and with his other sisters,and it is pretty well determined that she will come. The married sister is to be here some, probably, but more in the way of a visitor than as the per- manent miatress of the establishment.. Her home cares are such that she would be unable -to spend the four years here” “But as to the President?” “Society need not expect to see much of him.

If there any one thing that its members “ P somebody of a literary taste, and Miss Cleveland is a literary woman. So it seems to be quite settled that society will be quite happy with THE ACCOMPLISHED MISS CLEVELAND, the visible head of the White House, in a social way, while the President works at his desk or smokes and chats with his friends. 609, 611,613 N.

There isa very general feeling of regret forthe misfortunes of the campaign upon the Logan family, for between the loss of the Vice- Presidency and that of the Senatorship, Washing. ton te ty likely to lose its most prominent and generally honored member, Logan. _ «The gossip oat again about the ill- between Mrs. Hendricks and Mrs. McDonald, an the anxiety of the former to prevent the latter ap- ing in Washington society,is no new thing ere. An Indiana man here is quoted as saying that he believed that Hendricks went to Albany the other day for the special purpose of putting a flea in the ear of the President-elect about McDonald, and that he did it largely AT MRS. HENDRICKS’ SUGGESTION. “The ill-feeling between Mrs. Hendricks and Mrs. McDonald,”’ he said, ‘‘is public property, and it has ceased to be indelicate or improper to speak of it when it obtrudes itself upon the attention of the world. Mrs. Hendricks isan ambitious, crotchet lady of great force of character, but not muc political prudence. She has been repeatedly sat down upon by the Democratic campaign committee in Indiana when she insisted on making her per- sonal prejudices and piques campaign issues. e riot act was read to her in 1880, when she allowed her dislike for William H. English to e dan- gerously conspicuous, and it was only with the greatest difficulty that she was dragged off in time to byt an open rupture between her husband and ex-Senator McDonald in the spring of the + a ent year. As the wife of the Governor of the State she was the social leader in Indianapolis in 1872-'76, a position she endeavored to main- tain ap eye When Senator McDonald took for his wife an e ee and accomplished lady. who was at the time a clerk in one of the departments in this city, Mrs. Hendricks gave her the cut. To her d Mrs. McDonald declined to be su pressed, but by her quiet dignity and rare womanly graces gained a social standing fully ona piane witb that occupied by Mrs. Hendricks. The latter was relentless and unforgiving, however, and it is es. believed that she was at fhe bottom of her usband's treachery at Chicago, which McDon- ald’s cause suffered so shamefully. Openly and avowedly hating Mrs. McDonald as she does, it is not likely that Mrs. Hendricks would rest quietly and see rival elevated to the dignity of a Cabi- net minister's wife,a position just a grade above that of the wife of the presiding officer of the Sen- ate. The only way to prevent such a catastrophe would be by defea the appointment of Ex-Sena- tor McDonald to a Cabinet position.” SOCIETY SCANDALIZED. Society has been a little disturbed this week by a very quiet divorce, that of Presley T. Jenkins, son of Admiral Jenkins, from his actress wife. Some years since a popular danseuse named Frankie Christy appeared at the Theatre Comique in this city, and had many admirers, among them the petitioner. He became very eonstant in his attentions, lavish in presents, and finally the infatuation culminated in marriage. The petitioner came of a family moving in the best society, and the marriage proved any- thing but acceptable to them. The bride remained th de rti ot d dre ae.

Mr. j Pettes had worked up these sales: as thoroughly as an old dealer would, and it must have gladdened his heart after spending hundreds of dollars in ad- vertising, for the hire of a competent auctioneer, i and so forth, to gaze upon the vast.array of twenty faces that greeted him last W®dnesday evening. The sales began on Tuesday night, wheh the at-/ tendance was very fair. The bidding was slow and spiritiess, however, and such pictures as were sold went for half their value. On Wednesday evening the absence of desire on the part of those present / WAS lly noticeable. One picture-sharp bought ‘Th ; Wounded Bandit,” Kariswski-Berci's work, for $200. This is about one-half its value. There were @ number present who secured ually good things at sma!l prices. As a general thing, however, the good pictures were passed. The sale was continued y afternoon and last night. Aitogether about seventy-five pictures were sold. Taking into consideration the expense attendant upon getting up the sale, it is no exaggeraiion to say that the dealer didn't get his money back on any of the pict- ures. A SALE OF BEECHES. : Notwithstanding the apathy concerning picture sales, due chiefly, no doubt, to the hard times and of money.another sale has been proj This by Redheffer & Koch. week after next Breuner's pictures, some forty of which will arrive next week from Louisville. Breuner’s beeches are very well known to St. Louis art-lovers, almost as well asthe sycamores and cypresses of Meeker. They make a very attractive picture, and doubtless will be sold at figures which will, to steal a line from the advertisement column, bring them withia the reach of everybody. With all these sales of good _ pictures|; and these fine opportunities for bar- gains it § is i wonder that there are not more buyers. The writer is not going to in- flict upon the public the phrase that everybody should have an oil painting in his honse, but he would like to state briefly and pleasantly that ¢ money put into a good picture is as good as money putin bank. The good picture is always salable, and, like a Waterbury watch, it is a thing of beauty and a joy forever. Hence the sales of local dealers should be much better attended than they are. THE SALMAGUNDI CLUB is still having its interesting little business meet- ings. Last Wednesday evening the members met and wrestled with the question of existence once more. The secretary, it is said, read out a iist * delinquents, ate whom were Messrs. PF anand Pogue. Mr. Wilson proposed that the, .op ail delinquent members. Mr. Boll- man arose and remarked that he was delinquent only to the extent of $1. The secretary claimed it was $5. There was some dispute between the two, when Boilman, to settle the affair, drew $5 from his extensive roll and laid it before the hungry eyes of the secretary. Mr. Pogue’s resignation was read. ‘The secretary proposed that Mr. Pogue should turn over the chandelier to the club in place of dues. It was explained that the chandelier belonged to Cor- nelius Becannon, and not to Mr. Pogue. Mr. Albert said the chandelier was worth about $39, Mr. Greene, looking meaningly at Albert, said he did not think it was worth more than $10. Then Mr. Albert said he thought it could hardly be worth more than $10. Finally the club agreed to accept Pogue’s resignation if the chandelier would go with it. Mr. Pogue, it is said, considered this the most pigasant way of escaping from the club and ac- ceded. In discussing the next reception of the club some one pro to place the musical programme in Mr. Bollman’s hands. Mr. Boliman refused at tirst, and inquired why the volunteer musicians, at the last reception bad been insulted. It had been stated that, when Mr. Poindexter, one of the sing- ers, was about member who had taken “Hello, is that big duffer going tosing again. For God’s sake! I thought we'd heard enough from him.” Further, it was stated that while one of the Epstein brothers was playin the hubbub was so great that he ceased and faced the members until all became quiet, when he re- sumed his playing. Mr. Robyn was displeased with his audience also, it wassaid, When Mr. Boll- man inguired about these matters there was much indignation because such things had been said. Mr. Bollman said he heard the _ stories from the principals. The pame of _§§&. Annan was dropped from the rolls with such unanimity that it struck the floor with aduilthud. Before the meeting ciosed, the arra ngements for the next reception were com- pleted. NOTES. Howe has the handsomest studio in the city, at present. Barnsley’s pictures have arrived and are at Red- heffer's. One of them “On the Bethune near the Sea,” is a beauty, the best piece of work he has yet sent here.

A letter from New Orleans has the following about the coming display of art at the Exposition: “T suppose you will be interested to hear what kind of a collection is being sent to New Orleans. Well, it is said here, by those in a position to know, that it will surpass any collection of American art ever brought together. The collection includes most of the important American work done here in the past few years, and includes all the strong men of both the older and the younger branches of American art. The a aes sts nif abroad are well represent y such men as Harrison, Bridgman Boggs, Platt, Donoho, Gerome, Ferris, Grayson and others. At present there is fear that the pictures will more than fill the wall space of the art hall, for many of the works are of great size, although they will not seem so large when placed in the great ry where the American works are to be hung. is gallery, by the way, is 250 feet long and 50 feet wide and will accommodate some very large pict- ures. One of the great attractions for this hall is “The Return from Market,’ by the great Russian artist Chelmonski. The picture measures 15xv0 feet in size and is wholiy unknown in this country save from the photogravure which Goupil published at the time it was shown in Paris, where it was hon- ored inthe Salon. It is very spirited, possessing great action and motion in itsteams of horses g overthe snow fields of Russia.

Those who thirst for fame, as misers thirst for gold, or 3a for admiration, would have found muc tary primer, and when afuture general may still be writing under the sarcasms of a bar- rack-room instructor, Bernard Ralston’ had been welcomed into the front rank of philo- sophical thinkers. His book on “instinct, Con- science and reason,” was read and criticised by the few, seen and avoided by the many. The noisy heterodox claimed him asa new and promising recruit; and so also, to the amuse- ment of the onlooker, did the stanchest main- tainers of old landmarks. He was flattered, feted, and the lion of his season. It was from this suddenly acquired distinc- tion that his embarrassment had approached. The solicitor’s letter that was the beginning of sorrows made this clear. It ran thus: DEAR Str:—We have to inform you that by the will of our late client, Mr. Humphrey Power, you are appointed sole guardian of his only surviving daughter, Olive. As this may be in the nature of a surprise, we beg leave “to _— the precise paragraph of the will: ‘And hereby empower Mr. Bernard Ralston to act in every respect as the guardian of my child. Iam sure that Olive can have no fitter or wiser protector, none better qualified to ad- vise and to regulate her life; and should he—as I earnestly beg—accept and fulfil this charge, I give and eath to the said Bernard Ralston, over and above such reasonable expenses as he may have incurred on my daughter’s behalf, the sum of £5,000, to be paid by my executors on my daughter’s twenty-first birthday, asa small tribute of my gratitude.” The young lady isa very considerable heir- ess, in or dightecnth year, and at present ata private pension in ce, Further particu- lars will follow on your reply.

The gloom was thickening in gorge and pass, and gray shadows were fol- lowing the crimson sunset glow onthe huge crests aloft before there was any sign of a re- turn. The ladies grew uneasy. Stories of ac- cident and of awful peril were staples of the conversational bill of farein the hotel salon and inevitably exerted their influence on nervous minds. In this case the presentiment of evil was but too surely justified, Two of the venturesome explorers returned weary and disheveled, but Bernard Ralston was missing. ‘‘We thought he was before us,,’ explained Mark Croxford, the elder of the brothers. ‘““We drifted apart among the bowlders and ice- ridges of a glacier edge, and we looked for him to rejoin us at the lower end of thie track. Not meeting him, we supposed he had hurried away homeward.” A sudden chill had gone to many a heart in the little group of listeners. The thought of precipices and of their hidden and treacherous dangers was in every one’s mind. A search expedition was quickly organized and started. ‘**] hear footsteps behind,” said the guide, halting on the first stage of the journey and prominently displaying his lamp. ‘“‘Why, itis Miss Power!” cried Mark Crox- ford in astonishment. It was indeed Olive. With blanched cheeks and agonized eyes and dauniless resolution, she insistel on accompanying the seekers. It was at her request that Bernard Ralston had come to Switzerland. If he had would it not in a sense be her fault? Better that her own life should have been sacrificed. To persuade the girl to return was useless— only a loss of precious minutes. muttered growl of disapprobation the guide was compelled to allow her to proceed, Hours were spent in a vain pursuit. “Guide, is there any hope?’ demanded a stalwart Cornishman at last. “IT fear none!” he answered; “at the bottom of yonder chasm 23 His words were cutshort. A cry, half tri- | umphant, half fearful, slipped over Olive Power's bloodless lips. ‘Listen! I hear a groan,” she said. A silence that might be felt prevailed. “The wind across the glacier miss,” an- nothing for it but to go back.” ‘‘T will not,” the girl declared, ‘‘until you tell me whose voice thatis.

It isan interesting fact, and one, perhaps, not generally understood, that while there are none of the presidents of ante-bellum days yet living there are not Jess than three ladies left to us who were.the social head of the White House in the days preceding the Republican dynasty. Mrs. Polk, Mrs. Tyler and Mrs. Harriet Lane Johnston are still left us. Mrs. Tyler, the “bride of the White House,” still lives at Richmond, a brilliant ‘woman of 57 or 58, near the grave of her husband, made in 1862 and still unmarked, a reproach to the State of Virginia, whose Legislature pledged itself Jong ago to erect over it a suitable monument. Mrs. Polk, who was the next lady occupant of the White House, still lives at “Polk Place” $n Nashville, now in her 8d year, a well- preserved, intelligent woman, waiting patien the summons to ey oe husband, who was called from her side forty-five J scare ago, three months after the close of his admi on, and whose remains lie a marble temple on the eeengy of her present home. Mrs. Harriet Lane Johnston, a hard- some woman of 58, whose as mistress of the and ado parent, James Buchanan, is spoken of as one of the most brilliant in the social history of Washington, is a resident of Baltimore, having coecied tr. Henry Elliott Johnston of that city in 1866, two years prior to the death of her unc-e, the ex-President. “if President Cleveland wants to do a graceful thing,” said a gentleman, commenting upon the fact that these three women of the White House in ante- bellum days still live, “let him invite Mrs. Polk, Mrs. Tyler and Harriet Lane to assist him in his first re- ceptions after the inauguration. It would be a graceful action, and would recali A FLOOD OF INTERESTING MEMORIES.” And soit would. Mrs. Polk, who was spoken of by a traveled Englisia lady as “suppressing in dignity and attractions any of three queens” that she had seen upon the thrones of Europe; Harriet Lane, the bri t mistress of the White House, admired and honored by two continents, and Mrs. ler, the “bride of the White House,” whose portrait in brida] dress and veil still hangs in the Green Room. points out to all visitors as the only bride that has ever graced that establishment as its mistress, RS. TYLER. “J remember her well,” said an old employe of White House. It is forty years ago last June since she came here as the bride of President Tyler. It was a joyous event, but re some very sad m, ta months before the mangled remains of her father had been brought from the steamer where he had been killed almost before*her eyes. You don't remember the bursting of the ‘“Peace- Maker?” No, there are not many now in Washing- ton who have personal recollection of that sad event. Well, the President had met Miss Gardiner here, and their engage- ment had been made. She and her father, Mr. Gardiner of Long Island, were visiting Wash- ington, stopping atone of the hotels here, when they were invited by the President to accompany a consisting of the Secretary of the Navy, the , the Secretary of War,and some others who were going down the Potomacto test a new cannon called the ‘“‘Peacemaker.” It had been fired repeatedly and was considered er safe. On the trip it was fired several times, wit satisfactory results,and as the boat was nearing Washington on the return ail were called on deck to witness the last shot. Mr. Gardiner and the Secre- tary of the Navy, Mr. Upshur, went on deck, and the President was about to go when Miss’ Gardiner playfully hia his hat, preventing his going. Prob- ably that little action on her part SAVED THE COUNTRY ITS PRESIDENT and herself a Presidential husband, for when the gnn was fired it exploded, killing the Secretary of e Navy and Miss Gardiner’s father, the cries of the wounded carrying the news to those below that some terrible accident had taken place. That was an awful axperience for that young girl. Her father’s remains were brought here to the White House and lay in state with those of the Sec- retary of the Navy, Mr. Upshur. Their funeral was preached in the Fast Room, in the presence of a verv large assemblage. The result was that the wedding of Miss Gardiner with the President, which had been set for the following sum- mer, was a very quiet one, none except the imme- diate family of the bride attending, and ali New York being taken completely by surprise when the — vey oe firing in honor of the event.

It would be a difficult matterto discover a sour apple in Union Market at this time of the year, but more difficult still to finda sour face. Thanksgiving week has indeed been a very profitaple one to the marketmen, and thev are allexceedingly jubilant over the rushing business which they have done. | All without exception acknowledge that they have indeed cause to be thankful. This is, of course, the biggest week in the year for the game dealers, and one of the most prominent in the market asserted most positively that he had sold twelve thousand turkeys. Of course the great demand for game has materially affected the trade ofthe meat market, and there is absolutely no sale for vealor mutton. aapereges and tenderloins, however, still sell ex- cellently well. The prices in all the various depart- ments have undergone no great change, with the exception of the butter market, which shows several changes from last week’s prices. The price of eggs has fallen considerably. The followmg are to- “By the right flank, march!” (Stamp, stamp.) “By the right flank,m arch!” (Stamp, stamp.) “Halt!” (Stamp.)

Of course the Busch Zouaves feel hurt. An effort is being made to compromise *matters by giving them the arena to drill in, but they are offended, and naturally so. It would be breaking in upon their form to compel them to change their step, and it would not be a matter of wonder if the Zouaves were to leave the regiment. It is said that they would leave the regiment if it were not for the fact thatthey have expended a considerabie sum of money on their company head- quarters. There isa latent jealousy between the regular companies and the Busch boys which should not be encouraged. THE TREDWAYS’ VACANT LIEUTENANCY.

It must be remembered that, because of the strength of the regiment and the narrowness of the drilling quar- ters Colonei Meier is obliged to hold a battalion drill in sections, drilling four companies atatime. This causes to be held three battalion drills. It is his purpose to so osongmly acquaint the non-commis- sioned officers with the programme of the drill that they will have an intelligent idea of ‘what they are to do when the drill takes place. The commissioned officers will receive their instructions at'the next council, which will take place on the second Satur- day in December. When the first drill of the series is held the officers and non-commissioned officers who are not engaged will be expected to be present and observe how the programme is carried out, The colouel intends to have the soldiers as familiar with battalion drill as with company drill and he has taken the right steps to bring about such result.

I anticipate a lively time for the Democracy, man he is represented to be, he will refuse to make once begin. The politicians of the Democratic par- ty want the offices and nothing else will satisfy them. The so-called Independents precend to STAND ON A HIGHER PLANE, but my opinion is that the men at the head of that element are fully as anxious to geta share of pat- ronage as are the Bourbons.” __ : “What will be the effect of the election on the future of the Republican party?” ‘It will unite the party more perfectly than it has been united for years, and in four years the old party will come up again with more vigor and with greater determination—with better chances of suc- cess than ever before. The Democratic party will not satisfy the people that the Government should remain in its keeping. The party is not in favor of anything, and when it attempts Lo come together upon a policy itewill COME NEARER FALLING TO PIECES. Its members do hot agree on the tariff or on anything else. While they were out and fighting to get in it made no difference, but when they become responsi- ble for affairs they must show their hands af- firmati ; “Was Mr. Blaine the best candidate of the he “I do not think it is the interest of that to discuss that question. Mr. Blaine was the choice of the party. The rank and file of the party wanted him He was nominated and made a magnificent cam- paign. He proved himseilf,in my judgment, the greatest statesman of the age by his bearing and speeches to the people. He would have been men, the last week of the contest. He is a great man,and it isashame that heshould have been defeated by other men's mistakes.” “Then you have faith in the ae party maintaining a vigorous organization?” “I do. The battle of 1 will begin very soon and become hotter and hotter until! it is fought out. The people of the North will not ved longer pas- sively submit to the manner in which the South is kept solid. If the people of the South, on a free and fair vote, want to remain solid, that is one thing. If, by preventing a free and honest vote and count, they continue solid, it is quite another thing. The South has been kept solid fore by controling the colored vote by intimidation, or by preventing its being counted. The Northern people WILL NOT SUBMIT longer to any scheme which results in barring the colored people from the right to cast their votes freely and have them honestly counted. Certainly not less than four Southern States would have cast their electoral votes for Mr. Blaine at the recent election if there had been a free and fair vote.” “What will be the effect of the election on business?” ~~ “For sonie little time the effect will be very in- jurious to the business of the country. When it comes to be understood thatthe Democratic party can do nothing in Congress to change the financial awe of the country, including the tariff, the public confidence _—iwiil re- vive and business with it. But, if it should turn out that, the Democratic party can get control of both branches of Congress and control the tariff and financial legislation in my opinion the business interests of the country would be un- settled and seriously injured for several years to come.” **Have roe seen General Logan recently?” ‘I saw him for a half an hour on Wednesday last, being the only time since some weeks before the election. The General does not seem discouraged on account of his defeat, any more than his friends are on account of the party. He made a very brilliant canvass, which I think sausfied the party in every portion of the country. I hope be be returned to the Senate, but in view of tha political complexion of the Llinois Legislature, the result on — question is uncertain. He is hopeful of the uture. STANDS BY HIS CONVICTIONS, Plymouth’s Pastor Not Disturbed by the Disgruntled Ones. By Telegraph to the Post-Dispatch. New York. November 28.—Despite the storm last evening there wasa fair attendance at the Ply- mouth lecture room. The subject of Mr. Beecher’s “talk” was the “Bible,” the different books of which he said, might be compared to the different dishes on a hotel table, and each man was privileged to take that which he thought woulddo him most good. At the close of the service Mr. Beecher was asked if it was true, as re Shenek be ee of the ES yen of ike thanah had left it on ac- count of his recent course in support of Mr. Cleve- land: “No.” he replied, “I don’t think that there has.
