The Times editorially says Gladstone's re fusal to accept an earldom makes an appeal to the imaginations of men that will not re main unanswered. Sir Win. Vernon Har court addressing a meeting of liberals las; night in St. James Hall, denied that the lib eral government had courted defeat. The tories bad a; last overthrown the government by an alliance with the rarnellites, with whom they had nothing in common, and were now in an embarrassed position. He hoped they would not negotiate with Russia in the spirit of the recent speeches of Lord Randolph Churchill and the Marquis of Salisbury. Sir Win. gave assurance, how ever, that the tories should have fair «piay, and if they labored for peace should have the support of the liberal party also. The tories, he said, might squabble about their leadert. but the liberals would have no discussions about theirs. The liberals were mobilizing their forces for a great campaign. They would light for the old cause with the old leader on whose honored bead would be placed the crown of final victory The meet ing was crowded to excess and the greatest enthusiasm was displayed. The composition of the new cabinet hat partially settled, as follows Marquis Salisbury, prime minister and foreign secretary. Sir Michael Hicks Beach, chancellor ex chequer.

gaity §tnwbtt journal. Aurasta. Thursday Morning, Jane 18. General Grant will bear with him to the mountains the fervent wishes of his coun trymen fora rapid restoration of bis health and energy- The fresh air and balmy skies may repair his wasted forces after science has failed. Mr. W. H. Uennox-Maxweii must bare been surprised as well as disgusted, after running half wav round the world under a disguise as a fugitive from justice, to be arrested before he landed in New Zealand. There was no doubt before that he was the murderer of Preller, but cumulative testimony is furnished bv the marked ar ticles belonging to the murdered man which he was so infatuated, or so confident of esrajtc, as to carry with him. W'> tear the inhabitants ot Panama have not yet had a sufficiency, elegant or other wise, of American marines Rumors come from the Isthmus that revolutionary troobies are brewing again, and if they break out afresh, Ihe United States will probably have to interfere once more to keep ope,n communication between the two oceans. The Columbian army is in a wretchedly bad condition, and could hard ly maintain order. It is also reported that the Peruvians are much displeased at the part which this nation has taken recently in the complications on the Isthmus, and regard our interference as arbitrary. The “theory” of Buddensiek’s defense was produced Monday, ami a very inter- j esting theory it is. One witness declared that iic had supplied Iluddensick with the best brownstone, and that tnc walls were j thicker than usual. Lest it might he thought that these massive walls fell in consequence of the use of poor mortar, another witness testified that what has been commonly called mud in the cellars of Huddensiek’s buildings, was really! merchant tble sand within the meaning of i the building laws. Another witness swore i to the gootfquality of the limbers used, j As Buddensiek listened to this testimony, he must have been consience stricken at the amount ol money ho had wasted in extravagantly good construction. A dispatch states ttiat Pel, the French poisoner of Montreuil, has been con demned to death. Even the proverbially soft-hearted French jury could find no ex tenuating circumstances in his case. He was a modern variety of the Bluebeard genus. He had made a special study of poisons, nnd he first tried his skill on his own mother. Then he murdered two wives and a mistress, und tried to poison a third wife and her mother. He cut up the hmlies of his victims and burned them in a stove. His crimes were clumsy, yet for a long liine'he escaped suspicion, and was only found out at last by an acci dent, attention being attracted by the glare that came from his windows, and which the thick curtains he had drawn failed to conceal. The poison he employed was arsenic, and had the least scruti ny been made into the sudden deaths which oocurred in his family he must have beoo detected long before. This trial shows that in France the official super vision over deaths is very inefficient and that it renders possible crimes which could hardly be committed in any part of the United States. Burial permits must have been dangerously easy to obtain at Mon treuil before Pel could perpetrate so manv crimes undetected. Tlio Over-CrowtltMl Condition of the Supreme Court Docket. Washington. June 15.--The President in hit first annual message will call the attcn lion of f'ongres* to the necessity f >r addi tional legislation to prevent delays in the ad- i ministration of justice in the courts of the United Stans li would require the Supreme Court two years to dispose of all the cases now upon its docket, and litigants appealing ta the highest tribunal from the lower courts are required to wait two years for a decision i of their claims unless for some especial rea •on their cases are advanced lor hearing. President Cleveland ha* discussed with justices of (he Supr« n»e Court the condition of its business, and he will probably urge Congress to pa«s sonic bill t«» relieve the Court as quick!v as possible. The subject is a new one, ami various hills have tmen intro duced in Congress of late years to cure the evils that are so painfully apparent to lawyers and their clients Among the plans proposed is one for the creation of an interim diate court of appeals. Another is embraced in a hill drafted by Mr Justice Field ami intro duced in the House of Representatives last January by Mr. Tucker of Virginia. This bill, it is thought, will command the strong est support of the democratic tnajoritv m the House next session, because its author is not only familiar with the needs of the Court, but for the additional reason that he is the most distinguished representative of his party on the Supreme Bench.—Philadelphia /Veil. The Outlook for Young .Men. I lure been a close observer of financial matter* for the last thirty years, hut at no time within that period lias business depres sion been so perplexing ss it now is, or so general, indeed, fur Kngland and France and Germany are struggling with the same problem. The present time is particularly unfortunate for young men just starring out in life. Bvery department is over-crowded; j supply seems greater than demand. There are shoals of young doctors and lawyers, and it ia about a* hard to get started in business ai in a profession. I do not consider myseif capable now of advising any voung man. I feel that the state of affairs which existed when we older heads were young has all j changed. The boundless resources of our j country and the energy of the pieople are evi- dence enough that prosperity must return, but at present the outlook Ia aery foggy, and if I were a young mao just starting out in j life, though I were granted at the start all tbe experience which a rather eventful life has brought me,I should be in absolute d.ubt 1 where to turn or what to do.—Frederick Billimos tit AVt* Fork TVtktuia. Saved From tile Unn. A severe cold, ending in a bard, dry cough, caused me to pass many sleepless nights. coughing util it seemed as though uiv head would burst. I told rav friends that I must die. 1 was advised to try Dr. Seth Ar nold's Cough Killer. First dose was a great surprise; slept all night in peace. It cured me right up. Fersuaded mv friends to try it and it haa cured every case."—Marshal H. Moody,South Hadley, Mass. I Prince Frederick Ctuuiee Nicho las, of Protein, Known ae “The Bed Prince.” The dead Prince was ODeof the moat able tactician* and interpid soldier* of the age. Hi* courage was that of a Paladin of old, and hi* military knowledge unsurpassed by any modern strategists. He was the eery em bodiment of the warlike spirit of bis Hohen zollero ancestry, with all the qualities which would hare made the knight errant and the donghtr champion of the tournament. He -as boro in 1828, the eMeat aon of Prince Charier of Pruaaia. brother of the Emperor William of Germany. At 10 years of age he was giren a commission as rob-lieutenant, and eren at that early period he became con I spicuoo i for bia lore of military inatruction. 1 In the Aral 8chleswig-Hol»tein war Prince Prederiok Charier war on the staff of Gener al run Wrangle, where he sought erery op j portunity of meeting danger, gaining unirer 4al admiration for hii bravery. A year later tie iptored a r*»finw?iit of Baden infantry 1 with hi» own company ot huzzars. eighty seven strong. Fifteen veara after, peace having intervened daring that time, Prince Frederick Charlea was appointed commander in-chief of the Prussian forte, in the second Schleswig-Holstein campaign. He devoted his particular attention to the capture of the j almost impregnable fortress of Duppei, and, 1 after a long siege and several repulses, he !,Jrove the Danes out of their stronghold, the Prince personally leading hia troops in the goal onslaught. He aeized 'he standard of the Royal Guardi, and called «n hia men to follow him with the dare-devilry of Henri Quatre. at Ivry. Hia reputation as a general of the 0rat em inence, waa completed by the Austrian cam paign of 1866. in which he gained a succes sion of brilliant victories which raised a feel ing of enthusiasm in the breast of every sol dier in Europe. He marched hia troops across the frontier -with an address which might well be remembered by other generals. “May your hearts beat towards God, and your fists upon the enemy,” were the words of tin- warrior prince, and that was all he said to the men whom he led in the briefest and moat decisive war in history. In the Franco Prussian war, Prince Fred erick Charles commanded the second German army, consisiing ol 200,000 men and 500 pieces of artillery. His victories are the his tory of yesterday, hut posterity will perhaps, remember him best in connection with that wsr by the surrender of Metz, on which oc casion Marshal Uszaine, with 150,000 men, including three field marshals, fifty gener enils and 6000 officers became the pris oners of the victorious "Red Prince.” The laiter soubriquet was given to his royal high ness by Ins countrymen from the fact 'hat he toldnm wore any other uniform than that of his own regiment, the hiight crimson trap pings of the Royal Huzzars. Since the close of the French war the sword of the Red Prince has been fretting in its scrahbbard He received the rank ol field marshal from his grateful uncle and sovereign, but hi. chief gratification was the positive adoration he received from his countrymen. His three daughters are brides of recent years, although one is already a widow, Princess lienrv, of the Netherlands; of the other two, me is the wife of Prince Arthur ot England, Duke of Connaught, and the other the con sort of the hereditary Grand Duke of Olden burg. A year ago the fame of the Red Prince waa unpleasantly ahadowed by his separation from his wile, born a Princess of Anhalt-Dessau. Oeneral News.

The graduating exercises of 8t Catharine's fl,H, occur to-day. woman, evidently of German origin, was jnqniring for “Cony's Tavern,” y.s erday. I),, W. B. Lapham is in Norway collecting material for the history of the town. A large box of mammoth plate glass for Darby Block, came on the Collins yesterday. Several large trays of flowers for dee.f tne Home unable to walk, in car luges. The procession moved in the usual line of march to the cemetery, where a large num ber of ciiixens and comrades from the city and surrounding town, had gathered. The grove which shelters the spot looked its best and the stand was tastily decorated with cedar and dowers, dags b ing placed at available points. Gen. Lu ther .Stephenson, Jr acted as President of the Day. The exercises were of an impres sive character. I’rayer was offered by Chaplain Wells, and the Post proceeded te decorate the graves, during which ceremony the hand rendered a dirge. It was a touching sight to see tie- veterans, many of them suf fering from disabilities contracted in the war, tenderly depositing their floral offerings upon the mounds. At 3.15 u’elock, Hon. John D. Long of Massachusetts was introduced to the assem blage, with a few introductory remarks, in which it was stated, that from the first soldier buried 18 years ago, the number of graves had now increased to 459. Ex-Gov. Long deliv ered a noble addre-s, te. ining with thoughts and sentiments dear to the veterans, and with his eloquence, held the close attention of his hearers. Mr. Long is a short, thick set gentleman, of resolute countenance and pleasing address, lie occupied thirty min utes in the delivery of his oration. Follow ing is an abstract: IIou. John D. Long’s Address. I feel that this is iy>t a time for speech, but rather for prayer and consolation. As I stand here in the light of this heauiiful New Kogland summer, the zephyrs laden with the incense of June blossom*, memory rustics upon me and carries me back to the storm and grief of departed day*. Twenty years have whitened your locks, and I see many before me on whom the hand of ago rests heavily. The heroic deeds of your fallen comrades and the great army of veterans has been the theme of song and poetry, and I feel that while speech might be silver upon some lips, silence would be gold upon mine. Vet these graves suggest some truths w hich are recognized generally, one of which is the iiium.rtality of the soul. This day of mem ory, which has been set apart, marks this great truth, and whatever may be our creed, it fl .d* its place in our hearts. This day is a tribute to human souls, gone, indeed, from this earth, but to a higher existence where tile dash of battle will no more be heard. This day is not consecrated to the dead but to the living. This uttering of flowers, this devotion of Memorial Day to them is a ten der recognizatien of what they suttered for us on the march, in bivouac, in the cup of bitterness which they drank of red handed war. This, and even more Decoration, Day seems. It reminds us ot the tender sympa thy which went out trom every home through out the loyal North to the hero who faced the leaden hail or languished in loathsome pris 'll dens. Through all, veterans, the great heart of your ti llow citizens, throbbing in sympathy, sustained you. It bound' up tlie soldiers’ wounds in the hospitals and at last brought him home to the nursing of loved ones or to rest in the dear old church yard. There is something about civil war that thrills through unlike other wars. They are not made immortal in story or emblazoned in song. This war of the Kebeliion was one into which men entered in the flush of life and strength, untrained for war. Quarter of a century ago your dead comrades walked the fields, saw the church spires, gazed at the bright blue heavens, looked lovingly up on the faces of wives or sweethearts. There was no romance of bugles then, but the stern realities of war. Story books may prattle about battle, but yo, soldiers, real ize what war it. When in the drizzling rain of that April you were sent forward in unsightly packets and begrimed cars, you shouldered the musket only by reason of stern duty, from patriotism, for the preser vation of the constitution which is now placed on a solid foundation. From whence did these men go? They went from homes all aglow with this patriotism. The mother gave up the son she loved; the wife the hus band; aud they went witu inspiration from home, which was like a beacon light to them, through all that long agony. In the tuire of Mississippi swamps this electric cord locked the soldier with his hearthstone. Be cause unlike any other sympathy we are glad to come out and repeat the story of hero ism and renew remembrances of the fallen, amid the breath of flowers. These graves which we decorate, we are glad to remember, are the last resting places of those who stood noblv bv their country, falling in the lull eflulgence of life, crowned with the laurel of heroic sacrifice. These hearts stirred at the bugle call and loved the excitement of mar tial deeds. If it is sweet to die for one’s country this is not a day of gloom, but of life. This is a day when you renew the en thusiasm for the deeds you have done and your patriotism for the country you have served. It is said a county never forgets its defenders, yet faces loose their remembrance except In cases of individual merit and we have only a general recollection of the mass. As the years go by we posses but a glittering remembrance for the heroes of 177C, and it is fitting that external marks be erected to preserve their memory. It is thus that we raise these marble slabs to emblszon their glory. I hope some day, with your aid, to see s proper shaft of granite standing ovet theae graves, s momutuent to the valor of those steeping beneath. It is well to observe Decoration Dsy to keep these memories alive. To yon who occupy Soldiers’ Homes, s great trust belongs, as representatives of the government which voa preserved. As educators in national gratitude, respouaibiity falls nowhere as upon your example, for you still represent the highest ideal of citizen soldiery and during your rest and leisure so discharge your responsibilities as to honor your country as you did twenty years ago. In that way this becomes a glorious dsy. It is well that out of the sweetest part of all the year you bring flowers to garland the graves, no matter whether friend or foe sleeps beneath, or how bumble he may have been. There should be no favor itism in this honor, but the simple fact should be remembered that be died tor his country. Ail other considerations are swallowed Up in the soldier’s devotion and sacrifice for the nation. We look upon General Grant, not as be was when he was President of the Union, but as the great soldier, and the great er victor over that great enemy—death— today. He laced danger at the cannon's mouth, and possesses the courage or the true worriur. These virtues ever made us gener ous to the toe, and may the graves which are scattered so thickly over our land be a foun tain of forgetlulness. Let us not for a mo ment doubt that all old scores are wiped out. A united people will look back and see where deaths forever established personal liberty all over the country. It is a day of generosity for the past. I am glad to come back and speak to you on my own native soil. It is not the least pleasure to me to speak under the shadow ol this Home. He who is its gov ernor is one whom we in the State of Massa clmsetts, respect a# a citizen and soldier, and I feel the fullest confidence and trust in him, holding the official position which he does towards you. At the close of Mr. Long’s remarks the hymn “America” was sung by the entire as semblage, followed by a benediction by Chap Iain Wells. Amutfeinenttt. Strawberry Festival. There will be a strawberry and ice cream festival with music and select readings at the First Baptist church this city, this ^Thursday) evening. Admission 10 cents. Children of the S. 8., free. Patience Miller and Dixie’s Opera Company ap peared at the Gardiner Coliseum in the as thet opera Patience yesterday afternoon. The accommodation train carried a number frum Hallowell and this city. A fair sized audi ence was in attendance, and all expressed themselves highly pleased. In the evening the company appeared in the Chimes of Normandt. and was greeted by a large and appreciative audience. The parts were well taken, and the play was exceedingly fine. Mr. and Mrs. Dixie are young actors of exceptionable merits, and are received with applause wherever they appear. The in dividual merits of a majority of the troupe need no comment The singing Is good, the costumes pretty, and in every respect this company is fully up to the standard claimed for it.

State Mews. Narrow Escape from Death—A Bold Robbery—Seriously Injured—Youth ful Thieves. Androscoooin. Early Saturday morning, a gang of Lewis 1 ton bums started out to imitate the officers, and succeeded in capturing a five gallon keg of whiskey with hose attached, with which they proceeded to their stronghold below the 1 Hill mill. Saturday afternoon officers Odlin, j Theleuae, Legandre and Terette walked down on their nest and captured three of their num b. r and placed them in the cooler. A watchman at the Androscoggin mills, Lewiston, saved the life of a miserable wretch, Monday night. He found the fellow stretched across the railroad track, dead drunk, only half an hour before the train was due. He carried him inside the mill yard and the fel low laid there all night. Too many cooks won't spoil the broth at the summer hotels this season. A hotel keeper who was in Lewiston, Saturday, look ing for a first class cook, said that he couldn't find him. “Good ones want and get 8100 a month and board,’ said the hotel man, “and he is a treasure at that price.-’ Forty-two of the leading business houses of Lewiston publish a card in the Lewiston Gazette slating they shall close their place of business on Monday night, June 22d and keep closed until Wednesday morning, June 24th, tor the purpose of attending the grand parade and National Encampment at Port land.

Two fine foumains have been placed in Peering Oaks, Portland, by the Commission ers’s of Public Grounds, botii bronze, one a spray fountain which throws a stream thirty teet in height, and is placed in the centre of the pond, and the other a drinking fountain placed near the band stand The selectmen of Peering have revoked the permission given to the Sullivan Combi nation to give an entertainment in that town during Encampment week at Presumpscot Park. Tuesday, Ex-Officer B C Miles of Port land went into nis stable on Quebec street, where he stored some of his household goods before moving to Cape Elizabeth, and found nearly everything of value had been sto>en. The thieves bad sawed a piece out of the back door of the stable, thus getting in. and cut o« the top of a large valise in which a suit of Mr. Miles' clothes and other articles were placed, and broke open a large dry goods box in which some of Mrs. Miles’ wear ing apparel and other property were stored. A black dress that was in the box was found on the floor torn in strips. Just before Mr. Miles entered the stable he noticed tw men lying down in the rear of the barn. As soon as they saw him the loungers moved off in haste. This is another instance showing our citizens the necessity of being on the watch for thieves and crooks of all kinds during the next few weeks. The Portland city government passed an order, Monday night, appropriating 9500 for a Fourth of July celebration. An order was also passed appropriating a sum not to ex ceed 94,000 for lighting the citv by electricity.

Mr. Berry, hearing the outcry, came to the calfs assistance, but too iate to save it. He had do gun and no weap on but stones,with which the bear was driven ofl, reports the Republican. York. Three weeks ago last Suodav, Janies County, a boy of twelve summers, joliu Hen nesey, aged fourteen years, and a Freueh lad of about the same age. left their homes in Biddeford and went to Saco. They traveled down the terry road and look a boat owned bv Frank Adams, and rowed to the Ferry. At that place they made a landing, and while on shore entered an old fish house and stole trom it several articles, which they placed in their boat and commenced their homeward journey. As they were rowing by the point from which they obtained the boat, a man who was standing on the shore made them bring the boat in to him. They took with them a pair of oars which they altcrwards disposed oi at a second band turniturc store I in Saco. From that day umil the present time, the officers have been on track ol them, and this morning at 8 o'clock.

Within the last faw months Phillips had been non-suited in many cases in the eastern section of the State with judgment for costs for defendents. Phillips did not. it is believed, receive a dollar from all the suits brought by him at great ex pense He first came to hunt down Togus liquor sellers.
