The raising of money for the alleviation of distress is one of the things in which the people on this side of the pond have no successful rivals. Ireland, and now Germany, can testify that the distress does not have to be in sight, either, to evoke aid.
Boston is making preparations for an exhibition in July next. It is a sort of an heir to the proposed World's Fair, originally intended for New York City in the year 1885. New York two years ago surveyed the prospects and dropped the scheme, because it was believed it could not be made successful. Boston then considered it, and has finally decided that it can be made a success as strictly a foreign exhibition, lasting six months. The idea is, that in our numerous state fairs and expositions are presented ampin opportunity for home displays. By the means of foreign exhibition our artists and artisans vill have the benefit of the best of other lands.
The Pennsylvania delegation in congress is bent on getting from the government the SI,"00,000, loaned to the Centennial Exposition Company in 1875. Congress passed the law advancing the money only on the condition that it was to be returned from the receipts of the exhibition. The Pennsylvania people, eager for the loan, acquiesed in a provision to the bill making this imperative. Afterward the Exposition Company attempted to withhold the amount and fought the government through all the courts until the Supreme Court of the United States gave thu final decision against them. Now the company goes to congress with a piteous wail about being bankrupted, and begs that the $1,500.000 be given back. There perhaps have been in the numerous brazen efforts to filch money from the treasury, more audacious schemes than this, but certainly not many. Philadelphia, by reason of the Exposition, aided as it was in various ways by the govern-, ment, made fortunes out of visitors from all parts of the world. The company, it would appear to an outsider, could with much better grace call upon the people of Philadelphia, or of Pennsylvania, for that matter, for reimbursement.

A COMMON-SENSE SUNDAY.
Men Not to be Made Good by Lmr— Sermon by the Rev. George XV. Gallagher. N. Y. Herald. Jan. l._.
At the Fourth Unitarian church, One Hundred and Twenty-eighth street, the Rev. George W. Gallagher took for his subject, "A CommonSense Sunday." His text was taken from Matthew, xii., 12: "Wherefore it is lawful to do well on the Sabbath days." He opened his discourse by stating that the recent attempt to enforce the old Sunday laws, so long obsolete, suggests the need of a more common-sense Sunday than these laws give us. Before entering upon the subject he was advocating the minister sketched briefly the history of Sunday observance. The early Christians, said he, took the same Sunday, the first day of the week, from the Roman calendar, which contained the dUs solis, or day of the sun. At first the Christians called it the "Lord's Day," to commemorate the resurrection of Christ, but as Gentile influence became more dominant it gradually as sumed the name of Sunday, and the Christians gave it, as they did many of the pagan sacred days and feasts, a new interpretation, aud made it signify the "Sun of Righteousness," arising in the person of Jesus, taking Malacnia, iv., 2, as Scriptural basis for their authority. The day, however, was never regarded by the earlv Christians as a divine day in the same sense that the Jewish Sabbath was. It was spoken of by the early writers as a day of joy and cheerfulness, It was even considered as a feast day, and the Christians were forbidden to fast on that dav. From the apostles' time it has been the custom of the Christians to worship on Sunday. The first official recognition of the day was in the year 321 A. D. in the famous edict of Constantino, in which he recommended that "the venerable Sunday, the ancient dies solis of the Romans, should be
f*v®*
kept as a fea'cred day, A •Statute was passed in 1678 which mav be regarded as the foundation of all the present laws on the subject in England and the United States. This statute enacted entire suspension of all kinds of business done on the ordinary days of the week except works of necessity and charity. Prior to this law the Christians held a less rigerous view of Sunday. The Puritanic conception of Sunday remains with us_ still, but a more common-sense view is leading us to return to the historical Sunday, and to regard it as a day of rest, worship, and enjoytaent. All attempts to make humanity religious by the hour or the day throngh legal enactments will only result in hypocrisy, disgust, organized opposition, and the ultimate rejection of the pure moral restraint of genuine -religious principles: Nature asks no privileges from legislatures, and religion is as natural as air and water its life depends on the native love of man's heart for the good and beautiful. The spirit-of man is fr.ee and .demands a free exercise of its powers. Sunday shotaM b'e the most joyous day of tlie Week the churches should be kept open for those who engage in religious services those cooped up all week should be allowed to breathe the fresh air by the Seaside or in« the public parks. Theatres should be thrown open free of charge on Sundays for the benefit of the masses who could not aflord to pay during the week.
SHELiBlf CULLOM'.
Biography of Illinois'New Senator. Chicago Tribune. The Tribune has already printed a full biographical sketch of the senatorelect, but for the benefit of its readers who may not have seen the former notice it briefly recapitulates in this place the chief event of his life. Shelby M. Cullom was born in Wayne county, Kentucky, November 22,1819. When he was scarcely a year old his father removed with him to Tazewell county, Illinois. Until he was 19 years of age he worked on his father's farm in sum ruer and went to school in winter During ten months of this time he was also employed in teaching school. 1-Ie entered Mt.Morris University, but was obliged to leave at the end of his second year on account of failing health.
He studied law with Stewart & Edwards at Springfield, was soon admitted to practice, and immediately elected city attorney, which office he held for one year. In 1856 he was a Fillmore elector. The same year he was nominated for the state legislature by the Fillmore and Fremont parties united, and was elected. He was the candidate of the Fillmore men for speaker of the house, but that party was then in the minority. In 1860 he was again elected to the legislature from S angamon county, and was chosen speaker. In 1862 he was sent to Cairo by President Lincoln with Gov. Boutwell and Charles A. Dana to examine the accounts and transactions of quartermasters and commissioned officers.
He was afterwards a candidate for the state senate and for the constitutional convention in a Democratic district, and was defeated.
In 1864 he was nominated by the Union party of his district for congress, and, although the district at the last previous election had been Democratic by about 1,500 majority, he was elected by a majority of 1,700, thus defeating his former preceptor, the Hon. John Stewart, with whom he had read law. He was renominated by the Union party in his district in 1866, and re-elected by more than double his first majority. He was again re-elected in 1868, his total congressional services extending from December, 1865, to March, 1871.
He was returned to the state legislature and again chosen speaker in 1872. In 1874 he was re-elected to the same body and nominated by the Republicans for speaker, but was defeated by a combination of Democrats and Independents. He was nominated for governor May 24,1876, and elected in November of the same year, defeat ing Lew Steward, of Piano, the Fusion ist candidate. In May of 1880 he was renominated, and was re-elected Nov 2, defeating Lyman Trumbull by a plurality of 37,000.
QUAIL EATING MATCH.
Thirty Pairs to be Eaten in Thirty I»ays New York Sun. Mr. Walcott ate quails yesterday be fore a larger crowd than had ever collected at Gabe Case's before to look at him. It was his ninth brace of the thirty pairs which he is to eat in thirty successive days on a wager of $350.
Mr. Walcott came up to the hotel at about 3:30, and was immediately surrounded by a host of friends and partisans. He sat down quietly until the table was laid on the glass covered piazza, when he elbowed his way through the crowd, and, taking off his hat, said with a noble air: "Gentle men, I'm ready bring on the provender."
Merchant Williams brought two quails on toast, and Mr. Walcott began at exactly 4:30. He did not seem to eat with as much gusto as usual, and took more time. His second quail had disappeared at 4:46 elapsed time, sixteen minutes. He also ate some green peas, roast potatoes, and bread and butter.
There area number of bets on the feat, Walcott being slightly the favorite. One old gentleman who seemed to be much interested said he would bet $500 that he could produce a lady ivho would get away with two quails a day, and would bring her up every Sunday to Case's to have her eat them. He retired amid much laughter when it was explained to him that she must work week days, too. He was last seen in a corner of the barroom, trying to figure it down, and then he muttered. "NCK I wont back her to do that."
Monsieur Tonson.
Fost-Dispatch. Poor old Plon-Plon has turned up again. Under the empire he was so violent a republican that if he had not been idiotically harmless his astute cousin would have him led out by the ear. Under the republic he is so thorough an imperialist that he must walk to the frontier between two gens d'armes and be marched off with his nose pointing away from his country and his rear view visible, as always, to his enemies.
He cannot hold himself down, but must go and post hand-bills on the walls because "religion is in danger." What a faithful guardian of the church! Under the empire he opposed the superstitions of the church by boldly eating meat on Good Friday, in company with the choice spirits of atheism who were wont to lick the plates and boots in his Pompeiian villa. Perhaps he thinks that a religious creed whicn has survived his opposition must be infallible, while he, nav ing survived his Good Friday pork chops and his philosophic republicanism, is the heir of the empire and the defender of the faith.
The Bepnblican lion, Gambelta, is dead, and this imperial asa thinks he
3&*
is safe .in kicking at him. He in always safe he never could be dangerous. When his first chance waa offered him and he went to the Crimean war, he was found where the balls were the thickest, under the ammunition wagon. His cousin said: "If any one ever finds abullet in Plon-Plon's body, it will be one he has swallowed."

THE VICEREGAIJ PARTY."
Princess Louise Taking a Bnth Under E |Dlfficalties—A Famous Hint Julep. Richmond, Va., Special.
The Marquis of Lorne and Princess Louise spent a quiet, though to the former an interesting, day in the capital of the late southern confederacy, whicb city they had desired so much to see as to travel several hundred miles out of their Way. PrinCess Louise did not leave hei* hotel owing fatigue of the long journey. The average citizen lounging about the hotel gained some idea of royalty. Early in the morning the princess desired take a bath, but .declined to use the tub in her suite because it was not new A plumber had to be sent for and new batli-tub placed in her bath-room, after which her highness enjoyed her bath.
The suite of rooms occupied by the marquis and princess is the same as those occupied by the Prince of Wales on the occasion of his visit here before the war. It was on that occasion that Jim Cooke, a famous Virginia concocter of drinks, made for the Prince of Wales the first mint-julep which his roval highness ever saw, ilnd which so pleased him that life used the" now historic expression, "Give me another glass of that stuff with grass and a straw in it." He also showed his delight by giving the barkeeper a $20 gold piece—the highest price ever paid for a julep.
The big julep cup from which the prince drank has been preserved with almost religious care in the hotel„but to-day it was taken from under lock and key and sent to the marquis with the first mint julep in it since its rim was pressed by the Prince of Wales.
PECK'S BAD BOY.
More Adventures "With His Father and the Grocer. ., Peck's Sun.
"Say, you are getting too allfired smart," said the grocery man to the bad boy as he pushed him into a corner by the molasses barrel and took him by the neck and choked him so his eyes stuck out. "You have driven away several of my best customers, and now, confound you, I am going to have your life," and he took up a cheese-knife and began to sharpen it on his boot. "What's the gurgle matter?' asked the choking boy, as the grocery man's fingers let up on his throat a little, so he could speak. "I haint done nothin'." "Didn't you hang up that dead gray tom-cat by the heels in front of my store with the rabbits I had for sale I didn't notice it until the minister called me out in front of the store, and, pointing to the rabbits, asked what good, fat cats were selling for, By crimus, this thing has got to stop. You have got to move out of this ward, or I will."
The boy got his breath and said it wasn't him that put the cat up there, He said it was the policeman, and he and his chum saw him do it, and he just come in to tell the grocery man aboijt it, and before he could speak he had his neck nearly pulled off. The boy began to cry and the groceryman told him he was only joking, and gave him a box of sardines, and they made up. Then he asked the boy how his pa pnt in his New Year's, and the boy sighed and said "We had a sad time at our house New Year's. Pa insisted on making calls and ma and me tried to prevent it, but he said he was of age, and guessed he could make calls if he wanted to, so he looked at theinorning papers and got the names of all the places where they were going to receive, and he turned his paper collar and changed the ends of cuffs, and put some arnica on his handkerchief, and started out. Ma told him not to drink anything, and he said he wouldn't, but he did He was full the third place he went to. O, so full. Some men can get full and not show it, but when pa gets full begets so full his back teeth float, and the liquor crowds his eyes out, and his mouth gets loose and wiggles all over his face, and he laughs all the time, and the perspiration just oozes out of him, ana his face gets red, and he walks so wide. Oh, he digraced us all. At one place he wished the hired girl a happy New Year more than twenty times, and hung his hat on her elbow, and tried to put on a rubber hall mat for his overshoes. At'another place he walked up a lady's train, and carried away a card-basket full of bananas aDd oranges. Ma wanted my chum and me to follow pa and bring him home, and about dark we found him in the dooryard of a house where they have statues in front of the house, and he grabbed me by the arm, and mistook me for another caller, and insisted on introducing me to a marble statue with out any clothes on. He said it was a friend of his, and it was a winter picnic. He hung his hat on an evergreen, and put his overcoat on the iron fence, and I was so mortified I almost cried. My chum said if his pa made such a circus of himself he would sand-bag him. That gave me an idea, and when we got pa home I went and got a paper box,covered with red paper, so it looked just like a brick, and a bottle of tomato ketchup, and when we got pa up on the steps at home I hit liim with the paper brick, and my chum squirted the ketchup on his head, and we demanded his money, and then he yelled murder, and we lit out, and ma and the minister, who was making a call on her, all the afternoon, they came to the door and pulled pa in. He said he had been attacked ly a band of robbers, and they knocked his brains out, but lie whipped them, and then mi saw the ketchup brains oozing out of his head, and she screamed, and the minister said: Good heavens! he is murdered,' and just then I came in the back door and they sent me after the doctor, and they put pa on the lounge, and tied up his head with a towl to keep bis brains in, and pa began to snore, and when the doctor came in it took them half an hour to wake him, and then he was awful sick to his stummick, and ma isked the doctor if he would live, and the doctor analyzed the ketchup and smelled of it, and told ma he would be all right if he had a little Worcester sauce to put on with the ketchup, and when he said pa would pull tii rough ma looked awful sad. Then pa opened his eyes aud saw
I
the minister, and said that -was one of the robbers that jumped on him, and he wanted to whip the minister, bat the doc held pa's arms and ma set on his legs, and the minister said he had got some other calls to make and he wished Ma a happy New Year in the ball, mncb as fifteen minutes. His happy New Year to. ma is 'most as long as hia prayers. Well, we got pa to bed, and when we undressed him we foixnd nine napkins in the bosom of his vest that he had picked up at the places where he had called. He is all right thiB morning, but he says it is the bust time he will drink coffee when he makes New Year's calls."-
He Wanted to Swear Her. Greensborough (Md.) Free Press. A couple froth the Upper part of the country appeared before 'Squire Orell the other day and the male half of the couple left vety milch dissatisfied with the scope of a magistrate's duties. It was about New Year's, and the man having' ho specially important leaves to turn over iii his own life, bethought him to have liis marriage vows—on his Wife's side—sort of re-enforced, as it were. The sharer of his joys and pocket-book being willing to humor her liege lord, old Dobbin was forthwith hooked up and the couple drove to Greensborough and the 'squire assisted. The man made his errand known. He wanted to have his wife swear that she would be true to her "hubby" for life, but the 'squire in formed him that he wasn't hearing that sort of swearing. The noble spouse didn't seem elated at his failure to secure a supplement to the marital vows, so he bethought himself to seek solace in a post mortem satisfaction, and to that end asked his helpmeet to take oath that should she survive him .she would never love and marry another fellow. The 'squire wouldn't even humor this whim, and our hero loaded his wife into the dearborn and departed to look for a magis trate who would swear her.

It has done hard work, and taken great risks, in efforts to purify the Republican party. It expects to continue in that course, wherever or whenever this may seem needful—not doubting that this is the true road to a worthy Republican succcss in 18S4.
Every year THE TRIBUNE offers to sub, scribers a few premium books of marked and standard merit. The terms are usually so arranged that either the paper or the book is a gift to the subscriber.
A Splendid Work For Families. For 1883 THE TRIBUNE offers anew premium. WOOD'S HOVSEHO LD PRACTICE OF DIED1CINJS, HYGIENE AND SURGERY, 2 vols., 819 and 912 pp., profusely illustrated, bound in clotn, and sold by agents for the invariable-price of S10. It is written by eminent physicians of New Yor.k and Philadelphia, and published by the well-known standard medical book house of William Wood & Co. Every possible topic relating to the ^structure and functions of the human body is explained in this work with text and picture. The book teaches how to regain health when lost, and how to take care of it when regained. It explains what to do in emergencies. It will save many a human life and many an hour of suffering and anxiety. In any ordinary family it will pay Tor itself in a month's time. The terms are:
