THE new election law of Alabama takes the suffrage array from most of the co'ored voters of thjfftate, and it serves them right for haviog helped to elect a Democratic Governor last vear.
THE growlers about pensions for the survivors of the Republic seldom mention the fact that Uncle Sam pave every year $90,000,000 in salaries to lawmakers and those engaged in enforcing the law.
MAJOR E. W. HALFORD, of the pay corps of ihe srmy, has been detailed to I dntT RS disbursing officer of the American Delegation, and will leave for Parie immediately after the inauguration of the President-elect.. This will be hie first service as an officer of the armv.
A bill to fix the State rate of taxatiois has been introduced in both the Senate and House. Its provisions are as follows State tax, 10 cents benevolent, institutions, 6 cents school, 13 cents sinking fund, 3 cents poll, 50 cents the total State tax will be 32 cents. Last roar it was 35 cents.
Two hundred or more leading Pres byterisn ministers have attached their names to a paper in which they express the opinion that no farther proceedings should be t&ten in the Briggs' case. They say "the great body of the Presbyterian chnrch is weary of the strife of tongues, and is longing for peace and united work." These are very sensible ministers.
SOME of the most eminent of the Democratic leaders begin to express misgivings as to the policy of the new Administration on the tariff. They see that Mr. Cleyeland considers the financial question the subject which should command immediate attention. The tariff smashers don't see it in that light. It is very evident that there are breakers ahead.
A GOOD many Democratic editors and politicians are gloating over the late misfortune which has overtaken Hon. William McKinley in his financial affairs. This shows the ghoulish nature of those, who in large part, constitute the Democratic party. It is impossible for them to rise above the passions that actuate a ferocious beast in the jungles of Africa.
ALL but three of the members of the National Senate, as it will be constituted after March 4, have been chosen. Montana, Wyoming and Washington have yet to elect one Senator each. The Wyoming Legislature having adjourned without making a choice, Democratic Governor Osborne, himself in office by illegal means, will appoint a Democrat. Washington will send a Republican, but Montana is uncertain. Of the 86 Sena tors whore political ties are known, 37 are Republicans, 45 Democrats and four Populists, the latter being Pefferof Kan sas, Kyle of North Dakota, Stewart of
Nevada, and Allen of Nebraska.
IT is said by a London jonrnal which opposes Canadian annexation that great Britain will not resort to force to prevent this when Canada declares for it This probably is how the matter stands. Of course the mother country would be sorry to lose Canada, but she sees that the drift in favor of annexation is so decided and so earnest that a majority of the Canadians will be won over in its favor before many more years pass. It is useless for England to attempt to counteract this tendenoy, and it would be vain for her to throw obstructions in its way when it culminates in action.
C.inada will be allowed to carve out her own future.
A I.oug Winter.
The coldest winter the world knew, according to several chroniclers occurred during the year 1483. The season was not only Intensely cold, but lasted unusually long. In a large portion of middle and western Germany the frost was 6o severe during the month of May that skaters braved the ice without the least danger, and on May 12 skates were generally UBed. On St. John's day, Jane 24, the windows were frozen and not a vestige of vegetation was to be seen anywhere. Spring was ushered In with the last day ot
June.

The Garden of Children.
There is a little crarden on the earth Wherein 1 wander gayly day and night There could never sad or lonely be.
For 'tis o'ergrown with angel beauties bright.
Tbefe gaze the eyes, undiiumed with sorrow's flood, From bowers terrene to cloudless skies and blue. While glittering on each fairy finger green
There Is distilled a crystal drop of dew.
There also flows the brooklet bright and clear Its course is unimpeded in these bowers. And all along its banks, with nods and smiles.
We see our dearest, prettiest morning flowers.
There must our grief and sighing ever cease The heart be glad and lamentations mute There hang on twigs of life, forever green.
The bursting bnds presaging precious frnlL
We seek in vain a dark and gloomy mien Wo find no envy, neither hate nor scorn. There hum the stingless bees with boueyed wings
The violet blooms the rose without a thorn. There smile the sun's approving radiant beams A brighter twinkle has each merry star Joy and delight and bliss are ever near,
While sadness, care and grief groan from afar. Oh, do not seek that garden on the earth! •. It is and ever shall to us be near. VVe n«ed like children only to become,
Ami, lo, we have that kindergarten here! —From the German.
Jesse Grant's Home.
JESSE GRANT'S UOJTC.
Mr. Jesse Grant seems to be a more thorough business man than any other one of General Grant's family, or the general himself, for that matter, and his mines in southern California and Mexico bid fair to become very valuable. He has leased the Gamble residence in the suburb called Piedmont, three miles out of Oakland, Cal., and designs making that locality his permanent home. A sister of his wife is Mrs. J. E. Mason and lives at Alameda, while his wife's mother, Mra. W. S. Chapman, lives at the Palace hotel, San Francisco. Mrs. U. S, Grant will pass the present winter at Jesse's, and propabiy take up her resi dence in California if she finds the cli mate favorable.
POWDER AND BALL.
Th« Rrupp works have 5.34^ furnaces constantly at work. Italy's navy includes 59 armored "vessels, and of other vessels and torpedo boats 202, with a total marine force of 70,323 officers and men.
A powerful lamp which distinctly illuminates objects over half a mile distant by means of a great reflector is to be adopted In the French army.'
In the Austrian army suicides average 10,000 a year. This does not Include foiled attempts, and it represents 20 per cent of the general mortality among the Austrian soldiers.
The Renard, a new torpedo gunboat cruiser of the sharpshooter class, has been completed at Birkenhead, England, by the Laird Bros. The vessel is precisely similar to her predecessors of her type.

O! woman ,16vely woman, why will you suffer so, Wli.v bear such pain and anguish, and ftRony of woe Why don't .you seek the remedy—the one that's all the go "All the BO," because it makes the pains go. As au Invigorating, restorative tonic, soothing cordial and bracing uorvinc, for debilitated and feeble women generally, Dr. 1'ieree's Favorite Prescription lias no equal. It improves digestion, invigorates tho system, enriches the btocd, dispels aches and pains, produces refreshing sleep, dispols melancholy and nervousness, and builds up both tlesli and strength of those reduced below a healthy standard. Don't be put off with some worthless compound, easily, but dishonestly, recommended to bo "iust as good," that tho deale" may make more protit. "Favorite l'rercription" is incomparable.
