The Courier says in connection with a statement that persons connected with the Express had been summoned before the grand jury, "their appearance there is said, being due to a statement in the Express that the grand jury had failed to return indictments where attention had been called to certain, delinquencies." There has been no such statement in the .Express. What the Express said was that the attention of Prosecutor Shelton had been called to "certain delinquences" and that he had in turn failed to call the attention of the grand jury to the same.

Some one wrote the Terre Haute Express to ask who Is the present vice-pres-ident of the United States, and our contemporary answered by saying that there is no vice-president, but that Senator Edmunds Is aotlng as such. Now, we want to ask the Express, and ourcontempoarles generally, whether Chester A. Arthur Is president, or whether he Is vicepresident aotlng as president.—[Clay City Independent.

When Vice President Arthur succeeded President Garfield he took the same oath that had been administered to Garfield when the latter was inaugurated, and Vice President Arthur became the president of the United States. He is not acting president he is as much a piesident of the United States as was Lincoln, Grant, Hayes or Garfield.

Dudley C. Haskell, the congressman from Kansas, who died on Sunday in Washington, was one of those men of natural strength of character who make a name for themselves in spite of circumstances. He was an awkward and surprising character when he, Bomewhat forwardly, made himself known in the house several years ago. His big, angular and raw like physical vigor was fitly associated with his mental force and he quickly made for himself a more telling place in the house than that of an odd character. His death will be a loss to the Republican side of the house and at the same time is an untimely end to a budding career which his associates were regarding with admiring interest.

The Crawfordsville Journal referring to the paragraph l'rom'.the Clay county Enterprise given below makes a comment that is timely. The paragraph is as follows:

That Is, provided always, that Montgomery and Vigo counties can be Induced to poll their regular Republican vote for a Republican candidate. Neither of those counties should kick on John E. Lamb, nor prophesy hlB defeat In the future. Had either of them stood square up to our nominee, the press would not now have a chance to say that John E. Lamb will be last In November next.

The Journal's comment is this: Itisn't manly to cry over spilled milk

n0r

generous to chide the maid for tripping her toe. The Repulicans'of this district should look to 18S4 and see to It that their candidate Is elected. This cannot be done by reviving the unhappy recollections of 1882.

Hello, here, what does all this mean The Democrat of yesterday says "Prosecutor Shelton and the O'Reilly case—pshaw. If Bert Kelly was prosecutor, the grand jury before this time would know who stole that money, and all about it, and the guilty one would have been in jail long ago."

Again, in another place, the Democrat says: "The Democrat insists that the grand jury put Mr. Shelton, prosecutor of this county, on oath, and ask him whether or not he has played 'poker' or 'faro' for money in this city,-and where the rooms are in which he played, if he has ever played such games. Giuuoiing is a necessary evil, and can not be stopped bat if war is to be made, let it begin by the public knowing what Prosecutor Shelton knows about it."

There is no doubt as to the zeal of the county prosecutor when he bends his gigantic will to a given case and therefore we fail to see how it is that he can not succeed in prosecuting many of the notorious instances of Violations of the law. The prosecutor

h«i» a record for zealousness in finding indictments. We remember once when he tried to procure an indictment against the proprietor of this paper, even goinp so far as to have summoned beforo the grand jnry witnesses for the defense in a pending case that they might give evidence, on which an indictment, not of the person being investigated, but of the proprietor of this paper conld be found. More than that he presented to the grand jury a carefully drawn up indictment-. But the jury was coin posed of honorable men and they quickly wrote "not a true bill" as an endorsement of the document. 8o it is we think the prosecutor ought to be able to make a case where all the city knows there is an open violation of the law. If not let him call in some of the gang who aided him in the effort to which we have referred. ________

Mississippi Democrats are trying to wipe out some of the disgrace attaching to that state and party by reason of the assassination of Print Matthews. We are informed the murder was the result of a feud, one of those family ware1 which are also common in the south and not much less disgraceful than these political assassinations. But even this explanation will not suffice. Without entering into the mass of testimony on both sides of the case, it is enough to give chronological account of the affair. A day or two before the election Mr. Mead, chairman of the Democratic central committee of Copiah county, Mississippi, handed to Mr. J. P. Matthews a slip of paper on which were written these words: "Whereas, It is thought that the public Interest will be subserved by Print Matthews absenting himself from the polls on election day therefor#, be it "Resolved, That Print Matthews be ordered to keep within his own lnclosures to-morrow. "Adopted by citizens of Copiah county, this, the Sth day of November, 1883."

Matthews went to the polls and as he was turning around after depositing his ballot he was shot dead by a Democrat named Wheeler. A few days later Wheeler was endorsed by his neighbors by being elected marshal. This is all the evidence any fair-minded person will need to convince him it was a political murder. Our democratic friends will be wise if they change their tactics, and instead of weakly attempting to explain the occurrence denounce all Buch crimes.

GOTHAM GOSSIP.

The Garrotins of Mr. Bache—The Tyng Scandal—Garroting as a Fine Art Revived—How it Was Thirty Years Ago-

Strange Criminals In New York—Attacking a Professional "Crook"— Christmas Souvenirs and What Storekeepers Expend for Them—The Bane of Dramatic Schools. Special Correspondence to the Express.

NEW YOBK, N. Y., December 11.— The sensation of the week was undoubtedly the Bache garroting case, and the police have as yet failed to reach the criminals. It is not a little singular that a powerful man of six feet, and weighing fully two hundred pound?, should thus, at Beven o'clock in the evening, in Madison avenue, where there is always some traffic, be throttled and robbed of his money and valuables without anybody noticing it. But there is undoubtedly "something behind" the whole affair, which Mr. Bache Has a reason to conceal. One of the newspapers has connected the Rev. Dr. Stephen H. Tyng, Jr., with the affair. It is claimed that Mr. Bache was the custodian of a certain damaging correspondence between Tyng and a well known society lady. Some months ago his office was broken into and the safe robbed of these letters. The parties holding them offered to return them for $2,000, and Mr. Bache was in negotiations with them, but at the same "time had put detectives on the traces of the blackmailers. It is believed that the blackmailers presumed that Mr. Bache had additional letters, and warned by his previous experience, carried them on his person. They aimed to get them, and being disappointed in that respect took what money and jewelry fell into their hands. ^v

The scandal about Tyng is ahold one, and knowing the man, I am loth to believe that there is any truth in it. He was a'lively man and eschewed that ministerial air which clergymen as a rule affect entirely. He was a favorite in society, a clever con versationalist and a man greatly admired by larlies. It is quite natural that under such circumstances the venom of scandal, should asperse his good name. I remember that about two years ago, one of the editors of a leading paper told me that some one had called and offered to sell him a "sensation" for a round Bum. It was nothing else than a scandal about Tyng, "but," said he, "I refused to touch it." About two years ago, Dr. Tyng gave up the cloth to enter the life insurance business. He was a failure at it. He is now on his way to Europe to take up some other business in Paris.

Garroting by the way, is becoming quite popular, if I may use the term, crime again. Between twenty and thirty years ago it prevailed in this city to such an alarming extent that respectable citizens who had to be out late at night actually carried slungshots for self-protection. There was a regular gang of robbers who worked in this way exclusively. Finally, one evening three of them got hold of the wrong man. He was a strong individual, and after he released himself from the deadening grasp in which he was held, he struck out. Two of the villains fled, but the other one he beat and kicked in a horrible manner. He broke his arm, knocked his teeth and an eye out and in fact maimed him for life. He was picked up more dead than alive, and was in the hospital for more than a year. His arrest Jed to the arrest and identification of others v\Tcr anri Rpntences of twenty and thirty years to stato put an end to the infamous doings of the garroters.

Now, however, this species of crime seems to coming in vogue again, and, what is odd enough, the criminals are not New Yorkers, but are believed to be western men. Since the assault on Mr. Bache, no less than six garroting cases have come to the knowledge of the police, and in every instance the footpads disappeared. As a proof of the fact that they are strangers, it may be mentioned that last Saturday evening three men attacked "Black Jack," one of the best known gamblers and "crooked men" in the city. He was standing at the corner of Bowery and Grand Btreet about 8 o'clock when three men approached him. It must be remembered that the Bowery at that time, and particularly on Saturday evenings swarms with people, and block one meets with a pr

every half liceman. head from behind, while the two others tore open his overcoat and body coat and "went through him," as the police said. Suddenly one of them exclaimed, "Why, that's Black Jack," and then the gang disappeared. They got no money, because Jack is a clever fellow, and never carries any money in his vest or coat. He carried it in his hand. Hence the thieves were disappointed. This matter has not yet got into the newspapers, because the police hoped to capture the fellows.

The stores are thronged with shoppers for Christmas and the keepers outvie each other in endeavoring to attract custom. Windows are decorated in a marvelous, manner, and the streets in front of them are blocked with people from eight in the morning until ten at night. The favorite way of inducing ladies to buy is by offering souvenirs, and in this way an enormOUB amount of money is spent, called at a place the other day where souvenirs of that kind are manufactured. Said the superintendent: "There are only a few firms in the business, but their combined sales aggregate several millions a year. The era of the cheap chromo is gone by. One house a few weiks ago gave little mirrors, which cost them eight and a half cents apiece, and we manufactured for them no less than 25,000. Another firm gave away little fans which cost them no less than twelve and a quarter cents each. There is a concern on Sixth avenue, which last year expended no less than $90,000 for gew gaws of this kind. It must pay them, for otherwise they could not afford to indulge in such luxuries. Calendars gotten up in a wonderfully artistic manner, are also a favorite method of bringing people to a store. If the rage keeps on in this way, and the rivalry goes on increasing storekeepers will soon be obliged to sell their souvenirs and give away their goods."

Said a leading dramatic manager to me the other evening after the performance "A manager's life is not a happy one, but the way in which it is narrassed by these dramatic schools which are now springing up like mush roons, is making it almost unbearable. The Madison Square theatre management is largely responsible for this, for with its immense number of compa nies on the road, all playing the goodygoody stuff which originated at the New York theatre, and which required very little dramatic skill or inspiration, it brought into the profession a lot of. young men and women who have no more business on the stage than they have in the pulpit Furbisher started the ball with his College of Oratorvand Acting. He turned out some good people, but the majority are and never will be more than sticks. Then other professors of elocution and broken down actors and actresses followed suit, and started dramatic schools, and now the city is overrun with fledgling actors and actresses seeking engagements and ruining (he best plays and the best managers. It is a shame, and managers ought to combine to repress them." a

Bow Bells. A young lady who thought her personal charms gave her the right to be disagreeable was present a few nights since at a party, during which quarrels between husband and wife were discussed. "I think," said an unmarried elder son who was present, "that the proper thing is for the husband to

Red Letter Days Abroad—John L. Stoddard, in his wonderful lectureB on "Travels" has enchanted us so entirely that we will all gladly welcome this new volume.

He takes us from city to city, from scene to scene and from country to country with such vividness and enthusiasm that we imagine ourselves in sunny Spain, amidst the ruins of old Rome, or with the Nihilists of St. Petersburg. No description could be smoother, more vigorous, and at the Bame time so replete with interest. He omits nothing which would add to its completion and on the whole when we have finished his book we cannot fail to acknowledge its benefits and pleasures. "The Red Letter Days Abroad" is a most appropriate gift book, and its merits and beauties so apparent and striking that it will doubtlessprove a very popular volume. James R. Osgood, Boston.
