Services Held a! the Collage by Rev. Dr. Newman. The Bod) lo Lie in Slate From Twelve lo Six O'eloek To-day. The Eiubalmers Busily Engaged With the Body. Saratoga, Aug. 1. Commander Kn^pp, of Post Luther M Wheeler No, 92, G. A. K.. has received the following: Inspector General’s Department, Mt. McGregor, July 31. To Commander R F. Knapp: I Dear Sir—When the remains of the il i lustrious dead are transferred at Saratoga 1 an organized body of men will be needed to preserve order and keep the masses of peo ple who. if unrestrained, will be likely to gather about the trains and embarrass every one connected or charged with the duty of j making the transfer. Under the circumstan ces I am led to solicit the services of your post for this service on Tuesday the 4th prox. Requesting the favor of an early reply, I remain, R. Jones, Inspector General, U S. A. To Commander R. F. Knapp: Dear Sir—Col. Grant having a few mo ments since told me that he desired to extend to your Post some recognition of their ser l vices am! that his wish that the Post should have representatives on the funeral train hence to New Y'ork, I have the honor to in form you that the necessary instructions will i be given to carry out the wishes of the fam ilv in this matter by providing for the tr&ns portation ot two officers of the Post. Please advise me oftlie action taken upon this in vitation and at the same time furnish me the names of the officers selected. 1 remain, etc., R. Jones, Inspector General, IT. S. A The above letters will be acted upon by Post Wheeler today. Washington, Aug. 1. Referring to the regrets that have been ex pressed in some quarters that Gen. Grant is not to be buried in bis uniform with one of his swords by his side. Adjutant General Drum, toda\, said that any or ail of them are at the disposal of Mrs Grant while they re main with the war department awaiting the action of Congress. A joint resolution has been prepared, which Gen. Logan will be asked to introduce when Congress a*sembles, declaring it to be the wish of the nation that the body ot Gen. Grant be placed in the custody of the nation and that it be deposited at the capital, in order that a national monument to bis mem ory may be erected. It is thought that Mrs. Grant will not resi?t such an expression of the national will. The ide is not to at once remove the remains from Riverside Park, but to allow them to remain there until the completion of a grand memorial, which shall at the same time commemorate the restora tion of the Union. The movers in this mat ter have a bill, which will follow the passage of the resolution proposing an extention of the main building of the capitol toward the east, and they propose to have a tomb placed in it, after the design ot that of Napoleon in the Invalides. Another idea is for a grand national Valhalla, to he placed opposite the proposed national library to the east of the capital. It is certain that the idea of bring- j ing Gen. Grant’s remains to Washington is firmly fixed, and will not be allowed quickly to die out. New York. Aug. 1. Forty members of the Calumet club of Chicago have subscribed 8200 each for the j purchase of the painting of Gen. Grant by Leclerc. It lias been in the possession ot the Calumet club since it was executed, and it will remain in Chicago. New York par-1 ties recently offered 810,000 for the painting and the club hail about decided to accept the offer. It was a full length portrait of the Generel and he has said of it that it was the only likeness of him which he considered good. It was completed three years ago, shortly before the death of the artist. Applications for positions in the funeral i cortege and offers of personal services for staff and other duties connected with the mil itary escort on the occasion of the luneral j continue to pour into Gen. Hancock’s office and have necessitated the employment ot sev eral extra clerks and the appointment of Lt. Lindley as aide on his staff to assist, and also ('apt. Young and Lt. Allen in filing and re cording the mass of correspondence. Ad miral Jouett landed from the steam launch at 11.25 this morning and had a long inter view with Gen. Hancock in regard to the dis position of the naval force under admiral’s command. Promiuent officials stated that various men-of-war would be stationed at various points in North river and fire salutes during the progress of the funeral procession. A despatch has been received on behalf of President ('let eland asking for a position in the procession of Gen Grant’s funeral pro cession. The President and Vice-President with members of the cabinet also ex-Presi- j denfs and two Vice-Presidents and members J of their cabinets will be invited by the Grant tamilv to participate. I'oi. Fred Grant, on application of George G. Meade Post No. 7. G A. R.. of Philadel phia, asks that they be allowed the privilege of closing the services. The request was granted, but on the appeal of Rev. Dr. New man for the same privilege. Col. Fred Grant and Rev. Dr. Newman went to Gen. Han cock's representative mod stated that it was the wish of the family that Rev. Dr. New man be granted his request. New York, Aug. 2 Gen Hancock left for Mt. McGregor in a special car on the 9.15 train this evening. Poughkeepsie, N. Y Aug. 2. The time table of Gen. Grant's funeral train has just been issued. It is in the form of a circular with a black border on each page. The outside pages read as follows New York Central Hudson River Railroad, Hudson River Division. Speciai time table for the funeral train of Gen Ulysses S. Grant. Wednesday. Aug. 5, 1885. The train will leave Albany at 12.30. P. M and Pough keepsie at 2.45, arriving at the Grand Cen tral at 5 P.

If necessary special trains will be pat on these roads on Thursday, Friday and Saturday mornings. State rooms on the Hudson river boats going south next Friday night are already being rapidly engaged. Washingtoh. Aug. 2. Gen. John B. Clark, clerk of the Hoase of Representatives, today received the follow ing telegram: •'Members of the 49th Congress desiring to attend the obsequies on Aug. 8th will be duly placed in line It is nesessary that I should know belore hand as near as possible j how many will attend, in order to provide carriages. (Signed) W S. Hancock. General Clark says in regard to the des patch that members of Congress are so wide ly scattered it is scarcely possible to carry out Gen Hancock’s suggestion satisfactorily He begs, however, that ail members to (those notice this paragraph may c*me, and who de sire to attend the funeral of Gen. Grant, will at once notify him by telegraph at Washing ton. Mt. MobREGOR, July Aug. 1. The leaden hue about Gen. Grant’s face yesterday, was owing largely, the undertakers say. to the unfavorable lights and shadows of the room in which the body lies. Late last night when the casket was opened the body gave forth to the senses no evidence of other than favorable conditions. Preparations are being used to remove the heavy dark circles from beneath the eyes. The remains were examined within 12 hours and the extremities and limbs were found to be full under the control of the embalming preparation. Under taker Merritt believes that the body will be preserved in most excellent condition until long after final leave shall have been taken Mt McGregor, Aug 2. Before another Sabbath day shall have come, the remains of Gen. Grant will have been placed beyond vi«i«»n ot family and friends. Hundreds of visitors have come upon the little mountain railroad today, ami to them has not been absei t the suggestion that before another Sabbath, the sweep of the current of events will have closed over this man on the mountain, waiting only for his burial. In the cottage, from dawn until twilight, this has been a season ot farewells. The sense of nearness to the closing scenes has not alone rested upon the troops, guests and visitors. The faiuilv of Gen. Grant have as well and more, felt the sad significance of the day. In the scenes of the coming week they know that their dead will go forth to others. This afternoon, the widow asked that I)r. Newman should he sent for to come to the cottage. When he came Mrs. Grant remind ed the pastor that the dead would be her’s only a little while longer and asked him to be with the family while thev gathered in the cottage parlor to sav their farewells. Thus it was that about 2 o’clock Mrs. Grant and her daughter, and each of her three sons and their wives were in the room with the d»ad. l)r. Newman and wife came in as well, and lastly and timidly entered little Julia, the General’s granddaughter and the child of! Col. Grant. The family surrounded the catafalque, ben ath which was the calm, peaceful face of the General. Mrs. Grant, from a table, brought her dead husband’s Bible which she opened and passed to Dr. j Newman. The book was opened at the lltli 1 chapter of Job. The chapter was read and then the clergyman read with tender empha sis the 16th and 19th verses There was a slight pause and then l)r Newman bowed for prayer, and each one present knelt down, and the silent member of the group, who lay in the shadows, was thus surrounded. Grat itude was offered up; gratitude for the beau tiful character of the silent one and the influ ence it should exert upon all lives. There were, in the prayer, solemn words to follow the example of the General in all his virtu ous ways, and tin* supplication closed with an appeal tor Divine assistance and an expres sion of a hope of a reunion After this, the family, there alone with their pastor, entered with him into a religious conversation, and each and all dwelt upon the reminiscenses recalled of the General’s last sickness; and so, after an hour, the little group arose and the la-^t Sabbath service of the family with their dead was at an end. Dr. Newman, after carefullv scanning the General’s face expressed satisfaction at its appearance, ami was of the opinion that the remains are in a condition of perfect preservation. Rev. I)r. Newman led a song and prayer service in the hotel parlors this evening. Feeling references w »re made to the Grant family. (Jen. Hancoc k will arrire here at 11.40 A. M., tomorrow. Should Mrs. Grant maintain the present favorable condition, she will accompany the family and remains on Tuesday. She has considerably recovered her composure and normal condi tion. Rumors of decomposition, were again heard tonight, in connection with Gen Grant’s remains, only to be quieted by the assurance by I)r. Douglas later on,that there were no reasons for uneasiness as to the preservation of the body beyond the time of the final obsequies. Ex-Assistant Secretary of the Interior Gorham of Michigan, called at the Grant cot tage tonight. In accordance with the desire of Col. Grant, the body of Gen. Grant will lie in state at this place from 12 to 6 o’clock to morrow. Vast crowds are expected from Saratoga. The emhalmers were busily engaged with the body during the entire evening. They will use a coloring substance if necessary in order to have the face present a good appear ance. Dr. Douglass says the countenance looks better than ever. He believes the glass lid causes a dark reflection on the features. He states that the embalming could not have been improved. SHOCKING Ml'KDKR. A Section Man Killed bjr an Insane Frenchman. Maldks, Mass., Aug. 8. Patrick Maloney, the Frenchman who mur dered Patrick Conners, section man, Friday night, between Atkinson and Haverhill, was taken from the lockup at Plaistnw Centre, last night, by the Hav.rhill officers ami brought to the Haverhill lockup for safe keeping. When passing Hie point where Conners was found he said, “Hanging is too good for me. isn't it? Then he said that the man threw chips, sand and stones at me and I made an image out of him and laid him out for it.

A Jealous Lover Stab* a Rival With a Jack-Knife. Providence. It. I Aug. 1. A desperate attempt to commit murder was made early this evening and the victim lies at the Rhode Island Hospital in a precarious condition Allen G. Peck, 38 years old. a farmer, living in Drownville in the town of Barrington, came to the city to day to see Annie Aldrich, a woman who for three years previous to June 8 last had been his house keeper. At that date she refused to live with him longer and came to town, where she room* d with her sister Rosie Davigne, at No. 304, South Main street, corner of Tran sit. Among her visitors was John Lewis, 30 years old. a kind of strolling showman, who sometimes runs a jack-knife hoard at show places. Peck was j* alous of Lewis who was calling the Aldrich woman this evening, and at 8 o’clock P* ck stole softly up four flights of stairs, entered the room where Lewis was sitting with his hack to him, and with a large jack-knife stabbed him three times, once in the neck, making a wound three inches long, then in the ou er extremi ty of the right shoulder, and then back of the shoulder blade. He threw himself once on the wounded man and then ran. He was secured by a police sergeant and patrolmen within a few hundred feet and taken to the station. He made no resistence. Lewis’ wounds were stitched up ami was taken to the hospital, but his recovery is doubtful. A STARTLING DISCOVERY. Hall h Hundred Live* Saved. Nkw York, Aug. 1. A startling discovery was made by tlie po lice this morning. The five-story tenement at 26 ('anal street was found to be mined and fixed in the most thorough manner with pow der trains and fuze and shavings soaked in alcohol for a nocturnal conflagration that would have imperilled half a hundred human lives. The plot miscarried by accident. he proprietor of a harbar’s saloon on the first floor, an Italian by the name of Frank Sciac •a, has fled, and is hunted hv the police as the projector of the crime. It is supposed that his object was to secure a heavy insurance on his property. When the police broke in his door, thev found a mouldering fire where towels soaked in ilcohol were hanging all over the place. If kerosene had been used instead of alcohol, which evaporated, nothing could have saved the building. The officer decended to the cellar and found traces of flesh powder, such as is used by fireworks manufactories. They led to a gas meter directly over which a hole had been bored in the leaden pipe with a corkscrew. The gas had poured out all night, and the cellar was full of it. Any sparks from above could have hastened the destruction of the house by an explosion. The barber had broken into the cellar to carry out his plans. A CURIOUS FISH. Capture Near Galveston ol a Vampire of the Ocean. Galveatois, Tex., Aug 1. For several days past a school of marine monsters has been seen disporting in the gull, a short distance from the shore, and all efforts to harpoon or capture them proved futile uniil yesterday, when one was caught in a fishing seine. Hopes were thrown around the monster, and with horses it was dragged ashore. It roved to be a specimen of a very rare fish, the cephaloptera vampy rus, also called devil fish and vampire of the ocean. This is believed to be the third specimen ever captured Its weight is about two tons, and. as it lies spread out on the j beach, dead, it has every appearance of an j enormous bat or vampire. It is fully IQ feet wide from the extreme edges of the pectoral fins and fully fourteen feet long. The j mouth is four feet wide, and is protected by formidable appendages resembling horns, on either side, with which it scoops in food. I The curious monster attracts great attention. FOUND GUILTY.

The conviction and sentence of Louis Kiel, the rebel leader, is the all absorbiog topic Orangemen and English subjects consider it a righteous judgment, while the French Canadians claim tbe trial was not a fair one, that valuable evidence was suppressed and that an important witness waa denied tbe defcnae. FOREIGN NEWS THE MUNSTER RANK. The Cork and Dublin Shareholder* at Loggerhead*. London. Aug. 1. The Cork and Dublin shareholder* ol the defunct Munster hank are at loggerheads over the settlement of the bank atlairs. The Cork holders attribute the failure to the blind faith of their Dublin brethren in the in tegrity and high executive ability of Mr Hubert Faranharson. the joint Dublin mana ger of the institution, and freely express their disgust, and disinclination to forgive the gullible crowd, who, in the face of an avalanche of advice and warning, permitted themselves to be deceived by the slight of hand trick* of a scoundrel who smuggled their money from the vaults of the banks into his own pockets, while they be.ieved— because he said so—that the golden tide was flowing in its normal channel Pursuant to a resolution adopted at a meeting held veater dav a committee of the Dublin shareholders met to-dav ami formulated a scheme for the reconstruction of the bank, which contem plates the use of a certain sutu of money already pledged to carry on the reorganized business and the securing of *n extension of six months from the creditors of the old con cern. Th%sch< ine meet* with the sanguine approval of the Dublin holders, but does not find favor among the members of the Cork division. While the Dublin party were en gaged in patching up a reorganization, the Cork holders were holding a meeting at which it was resolved wind up the atlairs ot the broken hank, amt realize what was possible from the assets. The action ot the Cork holders will undoubtedly defer resumption of the business of the hank indefinitely. Mean while, active search is being made for Kanpi harson, hut no satisfactory clew to his where abouts has yet been obtained. The theory that he had gone to Baltimore, which tor several davs was believed to he correct, has now been discarded, and no new one has been substituted for it. Vigorous search is being made for him in Scotland, but, most people believe w ith little or no prospect of finding him there. Chief Justice Coleridge to .Hurry an American Lady. London. Aug. 2.

Society is very much agitated over the approaching event. His Lordship’s sons and daughter are said to be very angry. The Archbishop of York Denounce* the London Vice. London. Aug. 2. Rev. Dr. Wm. Thomson, archbishop of York, to-day. addressed an audience of men, and denounced the conspiracy of silence by which it had been sought to weaken the Pail Mall Gazette’s revelations.

A Scene ol Excitement at Coney Island Nxw York, Aug. 1. A Urge grizzly bear, one of the attractions at Coney Island, got loose yesterday and for a time created quite a scene. He made his way into the Big Elepnant Cafe by pushing in a door, and devoured a week’s supply of dainties. He also tore down about one hun dred feet of ornamental railing, upset a huge ice box containing kegs of beer, sandwiches pies and other refreshments, which, with the exception of the beer kegs, be made disap pear, and then demolished a cage which con tained Java peacocks, monkeys and other pots. Altogether he occasioned a loss of several hundred dollars. He was finally shot. m\T!IR»P Lawyer Chandler seem* to take exceptions to an item in my last communication relative to the trial and conviction of one Phillip Oby, a French Canadian. It Mr. Chandler will read the item he will discover that no “insin uations" as to the “fairness of the judgment” are made. Undoubtedly the court acted with entire judicial fairness in determining the issue. The court acted upon such evidence as counsel tor the government saw flt to in trouuce, but it w ill readily be seen how little the Frenchman understood what was being done when it is known that he thought all ihe time Mr Chandler was hi* counsel and not counsel lor the government. Mr. Chan dler is not to blame for this, however. But I suppose it will be admitted that it is barely possible for trial justices, juries and judges to err, for “to err is humanand it sometimes transpire* that innocent men are convicted of crime. That auch is the tase in regard to Oby there can be no doubt. Indeed, Mr. Thomas A. I’inkliam. while Oby was yet to jail, staled in the presence of three or tour witnesses, that lie thought he was innocent, and Mr I'inkliam was the one who made the complaint. Whoever made the unprovoked assault upon Mr. Janiea I'inkliam, a young man about sixteen years of age, ought to be punished.—Mr. Kira Whitman ot Baltimore, Md editor of the Maryland Farmer, is stop ping at the Wiiillirop House.—A meeting will be held at Town Hall Monday night, to consider w hat action will be taken on the day of Gen.

With regard to the condition of crop*, he says “Throughout ('unihcrland and in the major part ol Oxford county, the hay crop has been secured, generally in good condition. The effort of the intervening rains, tilts season, has been a most hem tinal one, and the crop that atone time promised to lie light is up to tile average, both 111 tins seetion ami through out the Stale. All the crops in the western counties look well. Potatoes got a good start In the cool weather of the earlier part of July and were out of the wav of the bugs, which made their appearance later. This year the Maine farmers are troubled less w ith the potato bug then in years previous. Corn looks well, especially the sweet, of winch there seems to he considerable pi nled in the packing districts Oats are doing finely, well stocked and full headed. Ollier grains are promising, and the acreage seeded appears to be even larger than in years past, lieana have rusted some. 1 think more acres are planted in Cumberland countv Ilian ever before. Fruit looks very well, and, though an off year, there is quite a showing in apple orchards." Presentation to C. II Harhrr, Ksq. Friday the letter carriers presented Mr. Clark 11.

Hancock has decided against the water route for the Grant funeral pro cession. It is claimed that the prospect of a con servative victory in England is already giving an impetus to business. The cranberry crop on Cape Cod is look ing finely, so that the growers already be gin to feel safe in counting their profits. The most natural thing in the world is the report that since the Mahdi’s death his followers have been continually fighting among themselves. The New Hampshire supreme court has declared unconstitutional Jthe statute which permits justices and Police Courts to com mit minors who are charged with offences cognizable hv the grand jury to the State Industrial School before the grand jury has considered such crimes. In view of the dangers attending pedes trianism on the Boston bridges, the Globe says From this time forth every bridge leading out of the city should have a night patrol, constantly present Ironi dark until daylight, and sufficiently numerous to al low at least one or another of the members thereof to be within calling distance of any part of the bridge. A lightning-rod man traveling under the name of Adam Wilson has been swindling tne farmers of various counties in Penn sylvania, claiming to represent the Inter tional Manufacturing Co. of Chicago, a concern which lias existence only in his mind. He managed to secure advance payments to the amount of nearly $8,000, and the investors have received no return f >r their money. it is said that Mrs. Sartoris will make a short visit to England this fall, and wil' then conic back to this country with her children for the purpose of educating and bringing them up as Americans It was the wish of General Grant that the chil dren should be so educated. Besides this Mrs. Sartoris is anxious to be with her mother for some time at least. Mrs Grant wishes to have her children about her. Mr. Vanderbilt must now be more com pletely convinced than ever before that the ownership of Maud S. is a luxury that no millionaire except Mr B inner can afford. When the Queen ot the Turf made 2.09 1-4. she was a pretty heavy re sponsibility. Now that she has gone halt a second beyond her own unparalleled and unapproachable teat, effete monarchies and trembling despotisms look with new awe anil amazement on the possibilities of this untrammelled anil irrepressible re public. A Sultan, a Shah, an Ameer or a Czar may command the treasures of the East and mav pile crown on crown and diadem on diadem (if his grasping and rapacious creditors in Lombard Street ami the Continental Bourses will per mil him to indulge in such ex travagance). but not alt the jewels of the Sublime Porte, the gem of the Hermitage or the rubies of Ispahan oounl procure for any autocrat of them all a rival ol Maud S. Mr. Vanderbilt can keep on buying trunk lines. There are plenty of them and to spare. But though he hug West Shore to his bosom, West Shore is not Maud S. How he must grieve that he ever parted with the peer less mare, costly luxury that she was! What are scaled down first mortgage bonds, even with all the back-due coupons attached, compared with 5.08 3 4 on the Cleveland track There is only one Maud S.. however, and Robert Bonner is the man to own her.—.V. 1'. Tribune. Three members of the San Francisco Board of Supervisors, acting as a special committee, have in the last four months f been making a thorough examination of that part of San Francisco known as Chinatown. They have now submitted a long report describing the habits of the Chinese and setting forth in plain lan guage and with considerable force their condition. The Supervisors' inquiries were made in a compact district including twelve city blocks. In this district there are said to be 30,000 Chinese. The Super visors admit that this settlement has for years openly defied all municipal laws relating to vice, sanitation, gambling and the use of tire. Chinatown has been like a ••cancer" in the heart of the city. Slavery of the worst kind exists in it. Filth almost indescribable is encountered in all parts of it. These 80,000 persons “are at present, and long have been,” say the Supervisors, “stronger than the law.” There seems to have been no attempt to enforce some of the most important laws and ordinances in the district. These twelve blocks are “geographically and topographically by far the fairest and naturally the most val uable section of the city,” and yet these degraded wretches have been allowed to hold it and make in it the worst slums in America. There are some statements in this report, however, that show very plain ly how vice and crime have flourished in Chinatown because the city authorities have refused to do their duty and because citizens have assisted in developing the iniquity which they deplore. Books and Magazines. We have received from G. W. Carleton t Co., New Vork, “The Story of Mary.” In thin the horrors of the convict labor system are portrayed iD darkest colors, with the in juaii e meted out to the negro since the war. “Mary” ia the daughter of a man in charge of a gang of convicts in a Georgian mine. All her life long alie has been kept ignorant of the real “business’, in which her father is engaged, and her perfect trust in him and her innocence, albeit they are rather strongly drawn, form the brightest part of the atory. Large 12 mo.; price $1 50. “Aulnay Tower” ia from Ticknor Co Boston. It is Blan. he Willis Howard’s latest. The scene is laid in France a' the time of the deieat of Napoleon after Sidan. The hero ine. a beautiful widow of twenty-three, lives wiih her uncle in a chateau near Paris. A number ot German officers are self-invited guests at the chateau, and one of them—but the reader will find out by perusing this charmingly written atory. The American nation has a double birth right—liberty and land. Its liberty it lias guarded jealously, but until very recent years it seems to have been indifferent to the loss of its landed estate and ignorant of the methods by which it lias been diminished. A veteran legislator, the Hon. George W. Julian, who has given special attention to the acts disposing of our public lands, tells the story in brief in a contribution to the North American Review for August. In the same number five medical authorities discuss the question, “Can Ch dera he Averted?” Felix L. Oswald contributes a suggestive article on “The Animal Soul;” and the Rev. M. J. Savage, in “A Profane View of the Sanc tum," brings an indictment against the daily press. The other ariicles are one on “The Price of Gas,” by Charles H. Botsford, one on “Temperance Reform Statistics," by Prof. W. J. Beecher, and the chapter of "Comments," by various writers, on articles in previous numbers. The Atlantic’s contents for August are: “The Port Royal of Mere Angelique,” by Maria K Mackaye; Should a College Edu cate? hv K. R Sill; Miss Ingelow and Mrs Watford, by Harriet W Preston: Two Anni versary Poems, by O. W. Hoimes; Ormsby’s Don Quixote; Stepniak and Russia; Marius, the Epicurean. The New Portfolio, On Horseback, The Prophet of the Great Smoky, are continued fiction. The Century’s midsummer number is an interesting one. “Camn Grindstone is” a racy article on canoeing. Geo lies writes upon “Hotel Keeping—Present and Future. ’’There are two articles upon Wm. Lloyd Garrison, a portrait of whom forms the frontispiece G,*n Porter writes on the “Battle of Malvern ILIl;” there are also other articles relating to the late war. “Topics of the Time,” and Open Letters are interesting departments. Grant’s Grave. Mr S. L. Clemens—“Mark Twain’—in a letter to the New York Sun on the selection of a site f->r the grave of General Grant, says We med to consider posterity rattier than our own generation. We should select a grave which will not merely he in the right place now. but will still he in the right place 500 years from now. How docs Washington promise as to that? You only have to hit it in one place to kill it. Some day the West will be numerically strong enough to remove the seat of govern ment her past attempts are a fair warning that when that day comes she will do it Then the city of Washington will lose its consequence, and pass out of the public view and the public talk. It is quite within the possibilities that a century hence, people would wonder and sav “How did our pre decessors come to bury their great dead in this deserted place?” But as long as American civilization lasts New York will last. I cannot but think she has been well and wiselv chosen as the guardian of a grave which is destined to be come almost the most conspicuous in the world’s history. Twenty centuries from now Now York will still be New York, still a vast city, and the most notable object in it will still he the tomb and monument of General Grant. I observe that the common and strongest objection to New York is that she is not “na tional” ground. Let us give ourselves no uneasiness about that. Wherever General Grant's body lies, that is national ground. Geueral News. Fanny Davenport lias sued the New York Sunday Mercury for libel. The latest freak for a solitaire dinner is to boil a canary bird in a whole potato. Cork cuttings are now used in making bricks which are said to be uninjured by heat or moisture. Velocipedes of every kind have been ex polled from the streets of Berlin by an ordi nance of the police. An invoice of jewelry valued at 818,000 was seized at New York last week for viola tion of the revenue laws. Miss Kraddon, the novelist, is described as a pleasant matronly woman, a little above medium height, and the picture of physical health. Missionaries in the equatorial lake region of Africa have discovered that a kind of beer made of bananas is a prophylactic against malaria fevers. The lions on either side of the Revere House steps, in Boston, which hare been a landmark of Bowdoin square for nearly 30 years, have been removed. The convention of German- merican teach ers at St. Louis unanimously adopted reports strongly protesting against the introduction of temperance text books in schools. Madame Barrios says that the best monu ment to her husband would be a man who can take his place. The Madame is young pretty, and has $8,000,000 in her own right. Iced soup is a popular drink in Chi 'ago Bouillon is in the largest demand, but to mato, vegetable, ox-tail, pea and barley arc much liked and are serious competitors to lemonade and other standard leverages. Dallas, Tex., claims to be the most strik ing example of growth in the Southern States. In 1372-3 it was only a clump of unpreten tious warehouses and shanties on the Trinity now it is solidly built over an area extending back two miles from the river, and has a population of over 35,000.

On this the fellow started to run in the direction of the Wiwurna. Reagan call ed an officer and accompanied him on board of the boat, when he identified the offender and had him arrested. The hill was an ordi nary one dollar bill, and was folded so that only one corner was visible. He had cut a figure .5 out of a cigar stamp, or something of the sort which was the exact counterpart of that on many United State* five dollar bills, and [lasted it over the written “one” in the corner of the hill, thus giving so strong a re semblance to a five, that at a first glance anyone but an expert would have been de ceived. The offender was arranged before Judge Larrabee in the evening, and bound over to the September term of the Supreme court. Being unable to furnish bonds he was committed. He gave his name as Joel Pier son and said that he resided at St. George. Meeting ot the Counell of Administration at 4»ardlner.

The plans were made, and on Tuesday night the young man proceeded to the residence of his adored one and there waited until she swung out of the window on a bed cord, when they made tracks for the railroad station, and were soon on their way to Boston, rejoicing. They evi dently arrived at their destination all right, as on Thursday the girl's mother received a letter from Boston stating that they were married the day before. It has recently come to the knowledge of the girl’s friends in this city that the bridegroom is married more than is allowed bv the United States laws, having a wife and family, it is alleged, in Fall River, Mass.

George McLaughlin, of this city, was ar raigned before Judge Hicks, recently, on complaint for assault and battery upon Mrs. Hanscom, wife of Rev. L. L. Hanscom of the M. E. church. The testimony of McLaugh- lin was that as he and his wife were going down Sea street Tuesday evening, they met the crowd of excursionists from the steamer j Mt. Desert. He said his wife was three times jostled off the walk, when he helped her on again and told her to keep her place. Presently she came in contact with Mrs. Hanscom and was crowded off again, when McLaughlin says he took Mrs. H. by the shoulders and requested her to give his wife a part of the walk. On the contrary, the testimony of Mrs. Htyiscom is that without provocation, Mr. McLaughlin struck her with both fists in the breast, hurting her so that she would have fallen but lor the aid of friends, and wa* unable to speak for some time. McLaughlin was bound over in the sum of $500. Rockland Free Press. The Victim of Hatred. Mr. Pillsbury. of Palmyra, who has been the victim of another’s hatred, thereby losing valuable stock bv poisoning, after having his pature thoroughly searched by a Urge num ber of neighbors, and plowing in the spot where poison was left, turned his cattle and sheep into the pasture. This, he and bis neighbors considered safe, after their vigilant search. Last Friday, he discovered one of his heifers had been poisoned. At last ac counts, there was no hope of its recovery. A dilligent search failed to disclose any poison. This heifer has always been made a pet, so much so that any person could call it up to the fence, and the theory is that whoever gave the poison to the animal did it in that way.
