The Gazette is dumb on the tariff question. We notice that those democratic newspapers which oppose the Oarlisle-Morrison idea of a tariff for revenue only, are very outspoken as a general thing. Morrison and Carlisle and the newspapers which support them are very quiet. Is the Gazette silent because it believes in the "for revenue only" doctrine, or because it is careless as to the wishes of the people in this community, who are decidedly opposed to the free trade tendencies that are in the ascendency with the democratic house of representatives?

Rockville correspondence of the

Express, has announced on the authority of the gentleman himself, that Mr. A red F. White will not be a candidate for the Republican nomination for Congress in this district. A letter from Mr. White to a gentleman in this city makes positive announcement of the same fact. Mr. White has very many admirers in this district who will regret this step on his part, because there are not many republicans who would be equally as strong before the people and who would better fill the place which is destined to be filled by a republican.

The Democrats in the Senate declined to debate the Sherman resolution. It is a confession of guilt because it is an admission that the charges on which the pioposed investigation is based can not be denied. It is not prejudging the case to say this because the facts conclusively show thst men have been killed for political reasons without any effort being made to punish the Jguilty. We hold that the public sentiment in these southern states that allows such crimes to go unpunished is the same sentiment that actuates the senators from those states to adopt a policy by which they hope the grievous wrongs may be allowed to drop out of sight. Suppose the same violations of the laws were alleged against Indiana would not the whole state Ije indignant, repel the accusation and demand a thorough inyeBtigation

The trial of Perry Manis came to a sudden ending yesterday and a result was brought about which is at least peculiar. The evidence had not convicted him in the opinion of the public of the crime of murder in the first degree, although it established a belief in his guilty knowledge of the act. No one believes that Perry Manis alone committed the murder. The ends of iustice have not been reached. While he lias chosen a life sentence by a confession of judgment the palpable fact that there are others who are as deserving of the same punishment makes it imperative that there is work to be done by the courts in thiB case. It will be remembered that after the finding of the body of Mrs. Nelson and the coroner had retured his verdict, the case was in a fair way to be droppedfout of sight, leaving the dark deed entirely Bhrouded in mystery. The Express protested against this and by keeping the subject before the public evoked the efforts of the officers of the law which resulted first, in the arrest of Jasper Nelson and then Manis.

So the case now rests, but it should not rest here.

BERLIN'S "WHITE LADY.'

The Ghostly Apparatipn That Invariably Betokens a Birth or a. Death. New York World.

A cable dispatch says that in the old and immense castle of Berlin the "white lady," the ghost of the Hohenzollen family, has made her reappearance, and that the inhabitants of Berlin are excited over it. One who is familiar with the habits of Berlin society circles says that the superstitious inhabitants of that capital city cling still with great perseverance to the old tradition of the ghostly "white lady," who from time to time resumes their wanderings through the corridors of the old castle, prophesying birth or death in the Hohenzollen family. The genuine Berliner will not abandon his faith in this saying, as little as his attachment may be to the imperial family, his religious belief or his love for the white beer (kuhle blonde).

The writer had in the years 1865:71 entered the castle almost daily visiting a school friend. The part of the castle in which the "white lady" is said to appear is the oldest, while in the new parts of it she has never been seen. The old parts, situated toward the river Spree, with its towers, its marble halls, its labyrinth of corridors and stairs, with its ancient rooms and oddly shaped windows, and with its locked overgrown courts, is calculated to create the belief in mysterious castle legends. It is occupied bv aged court ladies and other pensioned court servants. Here also lived the mother of the above-mentioned school-friend of the writer. She was a widow von W g, who had the position of the preserver of the royal gold and silver ware. She created an impression of being a trustworthy and truthful lady. She insisted on seeing the "white lady" several times in the year 1860 previous to the death ot the King Frederick William IV. of Prussia.

In 1840 the rumor was spread that the "white lady" has suddenly appeared shortly before King Frederick William III. died. The excitement was so great among the Berliners that an order was given to the soldiers on guard in the castle that on the reappearance of the ghost, if it did not Btand when challenged, they should fire. For this purpose the soldiers were provided with bullets, and the residents of the castle were warned to disguise themselves as spectrums. A few days afterward, when Lieutenant Yon ICrosigk at midnight on his way to control the guards, came to that part of the old castle, he suddenly heard a sentinel's challenge and then a report of a gun. Again he heard a second challenge and another report. He quickly followed the sound of the shot, and jumping up a short flight of stairs he saw the "white lady" floating along the corridor. He renewed the challenge, but as it was not answered, he tried to stab the figure with his sword, but she disappeared in the wall, and the officer's weapon broke. The bullets of the two sentinels were found in the wall. According to the military direction this event was entered in the register of the castle guard. Its truthfulness was confirmed by the three men concerned. In- 1850 the Berlin chronicler, Minutoli, wrote a book on this and other apparitions of the "white lady."

The "white lady" is not alone seen in the castle of Berlin, but also in that of Vienna, Carlsruh, Neuhaus in Bo hernia, Ansbach, Bayreuth, Cleve, Darm3tadt, Attenburgh, Christiana in Norway, and finally in the court of the Bourbons in France. She appears even in broad daylight—such an un usual time for ghosts. Her appearance prophesies death as well as birth to the reigning houses. In case of death she wears black gloves and a black veil, with a bunch of keys at her side previous to birth she has white gloves and a white waving veil. All the sayings of the "white lady" seem to originate from the German mythology, in which the name of "Bertha," the great goddess of nature, means the shining, the brilliant, the bright, ^nd the "white."

HEROISM OP A CONVICT.

A Lite Inmate of the Burning: Penitentiary Saves Many Lives.

Special dispatches giving detailed accounts of the burning of the penitentiary at Stillwater, Minnesota, say that after a guard had been overcome by smoke in attempting to unlock the cell doors liberating many prisoners, R. B. Conroy, of Minneapolis, a convict sentenced, for life for murder, seized Brown's lantern and bravely volunteered to undertake the release. Binding a handkerchief around his face, he crawled forward and was soon lost amid the smoke. To a reporter he said: "I am one of the oldest men here, and as I heard the men crying for aid knew that they were doomed unless immediately released. I felt it my duty to make the attempt. I crawled along on my hands and kness with my face near the floor and opened several of the cell doors. As I opened the first door the man did not step out. I could hear a low mumbling,

Eroceedings.

It will be remembered that Douglass in one of his speeches in the convention inveighed bitterly against miscegenation. He said that the progress of a race depended mainly upon its purity and intermarriage by destroying that tended inevitably to his downfall. But as he a mulatto himself it is probable that this fact, in connection with the mature charms of his secretary, has induced the illustrious negro to alter his opinions.

Death at a Wedding.

Chloago News.

The little house at 2,120 Butterfield street had been decked with many little ornaments. The little front parlor had been thrown open and its accumulated dust and dampness had been dispelled. The faint gleamB of sunshine streamed through the open blinds which had been closed for many a day. Mrs. Anna Maher, 60 years of age and a widow, had passed her life in that house. For the'past few years she had lived with her son, a youth of. 23 years.

Last night the son was to have been married. The old lady had been more lively than usual, and had taken great interest in the approaching nuptials. As the hour set for the ceremony approached, she became more restless. She tottered several times as she crossed the floor, but no one noticed her, and Bhe uttered no complaint. All were ready, and the minister was about to pronounce the words of the marriage ceremony. Suddenly there was an exclamation of horror. Ann Maher sat dead in her chair.

No marriage took place at 2120 Butterfield street last evening If the sun streams through the blinds of the little front parlor to-day it will fall on the face of the dead. *K»r

Inventor Ericsson.

.New York Letter to Philadelphia Times.

Here lives old Ericsson, who made the screw and the monitor and is making the solar engine to boil by the sun's fire and save coal. He is past eighty years old. He saved this country from being butted down at sea and the blockade opened and McClellan's army captured. He weighs in the moral and useful scale about three millions of Vanderbilte, Goulds and Keenes put together. Nobody knows much about him, because he has some knowledge and self-respect. Fortysix years he has lived here and every great ship you see is his monument. One of those monuments built on the Delaware sank a few days ago and swallowed up a hundred people as if they had been condemned and executed on the gallows trap. Yet, shipwrecks do not make as good reading as .they once did, when we were a seafaring nation.

was so terrified that he did his book, judging from the attention not hear me open the door, I seized his arm and drew him out. He was so excited that could scarcely lead him back to the place where the others were. At the stairs I went back in the galerv three times, and succeeded in releasing thirty prisoners. Many of them were praying when I opened the cells. Others were cursing terribly and pounding upon the doors. One man was lying upon his face, nearly suffocated by the smoke. The last time I crawled back I thought I heard a man in one of the cells, and fearing that there might be some one overlooked, I crawled in that direction, but could not .find, the cell, and as heard nothing more I thought I was mistaken. Most of the men behaved very well as soon as they were released The smoke was terrible. I could only breathe with my face near the floor, and the walls were hot and constantly growing hotter. I think we released every man."

From the gallery the men were led down to the prison yard and placed in the storeroom, a large building which stands in the yard back of the cell building, where the prisoners released from the cells on the lower floors had already bedh taken. The latter had saved the blankets, which proved a aartial protection from the severe cold, jut the men from the upper floor had only the convicts' suits in which they were dressed. There was no fire in the storeroom, and the men began to suffer from the cold. Under the direction of the warden they were led to the foundry, north of the cell building, where large fires were burning. Here their chains were stricken off and they were left free to roam around and stretch their limbs. During all the confusion not a man had made a motion toward resistance and escape. They were placed upon parole, which all seemed to respect. H. Lempke, of Nicollett county, sentenced to two ears and six months for attempted rape, occupied cell 236, and was.burned

T1RHE HAUTE BXPRE8?. WEDNESDAY,MORNING. JANUARY 30. 1884

The marriage of Fred Douglass to Miss Helen M. Pitt, at his home at Washington, day before.yesterday, haB been prolific of comment here as well as elsewhere. It is not generally known, however, that his bride accompanied him here to the national colored convention last summer. She was a tall woman, dsrk-complexioned and with a decidely Southern cast of features, which were rather handsome and striking. She was quietly but elegantly dressed and in the best of taBte, her attire being that of a lady moving in the exclusive circles of the upper ten. She was quite prominent in the convention, though

took no part in the

Douglass brought her

ere with nis party, among whom were a number of other women, all besides Miss fitt having more or less negro blood in their veins. It is not known where they lodged, but it is to be presumed that his private secretary found quarters with the rest of the party.

Washington Letter in St. Democrat.

Senator Palmer, of Michigan, who is here for his first session this winter, is one of the millionaires of the Senate who will soon be a prominent figure in the social life of the capital. He is possessed of a handsome and ambitious wife, who has a largo fortune in her own right independent of her husband's millions, and who has a residence on Twenty-fifth street in New York City in addition to their Detroit home. Mrs. Palmer has spent the greater part of her time of late years at her New York house, and returning late this fall from a trip to Europe, die not reach Washington until after New Year's. They have leasecL Senator Windom's famous house on Scott Circle, and by adding their household treasures to its simple furnishings, have made it a most beautiful home.

The Hip Pocket in Texas. Washington Republican. A member of the*city bar, who has been traveling in the southwest, has returned, and tells a Munchausen story about hotels In Texas. He says that he stopped at a hotel in a little town near the Bio Grande for three days. As he was abont to leave he approached the clerk's office, and, putting his hand behind him to his hip pocket for his purse, aBked the amount of his bill, ''Nothing, pard," replied the clerk, odging behind the desk. "Don't draw, for God's sake!" The lawyer says that the clerk thought he was drawing a pistol, and when he tried to explain that he was getting his purse the clerk informed nim that men in that section don't have room in their hip pockets for anything but a "pop."

restores, with the gloss-and freshness of youth, faded or gray hair to a natural, rich brown color, or deep black, as maybe desired. By its use light or red hair maybe darkened, ttiin hair thickened, and baldness often, though not always, cured.

It checks falllng of the hair, and stimulates a weak and sickly growth to vigor. It prevents and cures scurf and dandruff, and heals nearly every disease peculiar to the scalp. As a ladies' Hair Bressine, the YIQOB is unequalled it contains neither oil nor dye, renders the hair soft, glossy, and silken in appearance, and imparts a delicate, agreeable, and lasting perfume.

MB. C. P. BRICHER writes from Kiriy, O.. July 3, 1882: Last fall my hair commenced falling out, and in a short time I became nearly bald. I used part of a bottle of AVEB'S HAIR YIOOE, which stopped the falling of the hair, and started anew growth. I have now a full head of hair growing vigorously, aud am convinced that but ior tli© use of your preparation I should hare been entirely bald."

MB. ANGUS FAIBUAIBN, leader of the celebrated'"Fairbalrn Family" of Scottish Vocalists, writes from Boston, Mass., Feb.-6, 1880: "Ever since my hair began to give silvery evidence of .the change which lieeting time procnreth, I have used AYKB'S HAIR VI&DK, and so have been able to maintain an appearance of youtlifulness —a matter of considerable consequence to ministers, orators, actors, and in fact every one who lives in the eyes of the public."

Mas. O. A. PRESCOTT, writing from 18 Elm St.. Charlestown, Mass., April 14, 1882, says: Two years ago about two-thirds of my hair came off. It thinned very rapidly, and I was —«_. 1,-1,1 A» iistni* A iricn'o UtiD
