The Vincennes Sun referring to Capt. Mass' offer to bet on Republican victory says "the truth is the, boys (Democrats) are 'putting up' and not 'jliuttine up,'" and then adds "he will probably g.et his New York ofler covered very Boon." This does not look as if the Knox county "boyB" arc very desirous to bet on their ticket.

Beecher has begun writing letters ami is trying hard to rival Hendricks in convicting Cleveland in the Halpin matter. Beecher says:

Cleveland lias already suffered loss, mortification and damage for the commission o£ a grievous sin, and to-day it stands in his path with a rod of chastisement and if he fails to gain the highest place in this government it will be by reason of that very transgression, That he will be elected, I both hope and believe but the chief danger to his ambition today springs from that sin of twelve years ago. Is there no warning in thatf No voice to young men?

The Democratic managers of the local campaign are straining every point for the election of Latnb and the legislative ticket. The Republican congres sional and legislative tickets are to be made the basis of most of the attack in the interest of Lamb and Voorhees The plea for votes for the legislative ticket is made in many forms, but all lead to the end of securing the election of a Democrat to the United States sen ate. It should not be forgotten that this is the case, and Republicans should be as zealous as our Democratic friends their efforts to send a Republican colleague for Senator Harrison to the United States senate.

The price of corn is bobbing about as if some reckless person had a string to it and was!amusing himself trying to see how inconsistnet he could make the price compare with the supply and demand. In truth, according to all accounts from Chicago, that is exactly what is being done, but of course for hardly so trifling purpose. Philip Ar mour, the pork king, is the one who is charged with manipulating the corner, As he is credited with the purpose of "squeezing'' out several prominent dealere who are "short," and as we h»vo not yet heard of his being entirely successful it may be expected tiie manipulation will continue for a day or so moie.

Logan is up in the Western Reserve, where Republicans, cheese and iron manufactories are numerous. His pres ence at Youngstown, Akron, Canton and other points in the "Reserve" has made known to the whole country by the enthusiasm of the people that the "Reserve" is going to vote this year. There is a great deal of meaning in this news from that locality. When' ever the Republican vote has been brought out in those five six counties Ohio has invariably elected the Republican ticket. Garfield would have lost the state four years ai?o, if the Republicans in the "West ern Reserve" had indulged in one of their displays of displeasure anil remained at home, as they frequently do. When, therefore, you see monster demonstrations at Youngstown and other leading cities in the northeastern part of Ohio, you can very safely guess at the result of the approaching election.

NEW YORK'S MANUFACTORIES.

Their Growth Under the Tariff- What They Represent in Money and in the Number of Men Employed. Gath in New York Tribune.

The building operations covering New York city and environs are the result of New York having becomes manufacturing city with 15,000 different establishments on the island and its waters. Are 12,000 factories in New York less an acquisition than the same number of vessels? Here get their living 150,000 men, 75,000 women and 12,000children on this island alone, by the manufactories. They are constantly aspiring toward homes. The Brooklyn bridge is the monument of that aspiration. l"hey do not float, but abide. A weak president like Cleveland, whose intellectual and timid fibre is now universally admitted, made a mere fulcrum by the solid south to overthrow these manufactures, might give New York some winters to repent in. The brewer would then have a little tronjile making bis collections (or beer drunk for there is nopolice on the globe like occupation for the multitude.

The manufactures of New York city amount to $200,000,000 capital, equal to the cost of four hundred of the greateat iron shipe in the world at half a million dollars b\ iece, far greater than the foreign shipping of New York. There are not one hundred ships of this quality running on the North Atlantic. If we bad the ships, which barely pay .3 per cent a year, their crews would be absentees, but by -the manufactures w6 have these crews abiding with us, and they numbered in 1880 227,352 workingmen, and in Brooklyn 47,587. 'Add 30,000 for the adjacent cities like Newark and Paterson, which are more strictly manufacturing places than New York ©r Brooklyn, and the aggregate is not less than 260,000 operatives. Now in the entire shipping of England, according to a late Macmillan's Year-Book, there are not 200,000 men. The manufactures of the metropolitan district here dwarf the commerce of England.

Sewing a Lost Art

London Truth. I see that some one haB been writing to the papers complaining mat .anglisTi women are forgetting how to sew. Perhaps there is some truth in this. I was examining the other morning an old piece of sewing done by Mrs, Grey's grandmother, in which the stitches are so miraculously small and neat that they might now almost take rank as fancy work. There was a marvellous little darn in one part of the fine muslin, the garment in question being si baby'schristeningrobe. Well, this darn was filled in with lace stitches, such as were used in making modern point, but the cotton was so fine that the work must have been rather trying to the eyes. The seains were not run and felled, as they are now, but each side of the seam was hemmed with the narrowest possible little, tiny, soft hem, and then the two were "topsewed" against each other. The ntedlo used must have been excessively small, or the work could never have been so neat. The little robe was evidently a labor of love, and the worker seems to have lavished any amount of labor upon it. No one could have said of it that it looked "blown to gether," as some one remarked of the dresses in Sir Joshua Reynolds' portraits. The-Career of an "Old Woman.' Froond's Weekly.

Mrs. Gilbert's career is a curious illustration of the vicissitudes of the stage. She was an Englishwoman who had from her youth up to almost mid die age been on the stage in England as a danseuse. She had never-appeared in England until lately in a speaking part, but had danced between the pieces in-the days when at least two and sometimes three pieceB were played in each evening. When three pieces were played she danced twice. She came to this country about 1856, and she and her husband, George H. Gilbert, together danced between the piece for a year or two before Mrs. Gilbert had an opportunity to play a speaking part. Her first speaking part was that of an old woman in a new piece, "A Piince of Good Fellows," played at Louisville, Ky., 1857. The same year she made "a great hit" in the same theatre, in piaying in Wichavenda in Brougham's "Pocahontas," to Brougham's Powhatan, and this led to her appearance later on at the Broadway theater in this city, of which her husband -became stage manager. She haB been with Daley for about fifteen years. She must be about, seventy years old.

Mr.Talmage on Snicido.

New York Tribune.

Mr. Talmage's sermon yesterday at the Brooklyn Tabernacle was on "The cause of the great increase of suicide." In the coarse of his remarks ho said, "I charge upon infidelity the evil of this large increase. There never has been a case of suicide where the perpetrator was not either demented or an infidel. Would-to God that the coroners would be brave in rendering their verdicts when a man commitp suicide, In one case they say, 'He took his life when temporarily insane,' while in another case they should say, 'Having read infidel books and attended infidel lectures this man lost hiB fear of future punishment and committed slaughter.' It is said that the Bible refers to taking the lives of others when it says, 'Thou shall not kill.' Then I ask if you are not responsible for your own life as well as the lives of others! He gave you weapons with which to defend it, two arms to protect it, two eyes with which to guara against invasion, and a natural love of life. If there are any in my congregation who are in trouble, I prescribe life instead of death. Remember that God keeps a chronology of your life. Think of .the future consequenceaof suicide."'

The Name of "Nihilist.'

Pall Mall Budget Turgenieff is generally believed to have invented the name of Nihilist? but although he revived the use of it he cannot be regarded as its originator. Some fifteen centuries ago St. Augustine, Bishop of Hippo, used the Banio substantive in almost the same sense. "Nihilisti appelantur," he says, "qum nihil credunt et nihil docent." To judge from this the African Nihilists who plagued the pious father in the fourth century were much the same people as their cousins of our times, minus press and dynamite. St. Augustine referred to those black Bheep of his diocese whose only aim was to destroy and deny everything that could either be destroyed or denied.

A curious result, of the flood in the Chippewa river is that many of the farmers, disgusted by the ruin of their crops, prefer to go further west, and break new ground, rather than stay on the scene of their heavy losses.

England as a Bombarder. London Truth. I suppose that there are "ho'people in the word so fond of remarking motes in the eyes of others and so blind to the beams in our own eyes as we are. We are mortally indignant with the French for warring with the Chinese through lust of empire, and we are terribly shocked at their having destroyed the Chinese fleet.* Such barbarism we did not imagine to be possible. And yet, why did we bombard Alexandria? Why did we make an admiral a peer, and give him £30,000 for thiB feat? Why, too, did we make a general a peer, and give him a like sum for defeating with much slaughter a crowd of Egyptians—so harmless that when half a dozen Arabs attacked them with spears they did not even attempt to defend themselves? When the French make Admiral Courbeta peer, and give him 1,000,000 francs foi sinkine fiorr.e Chinese gunboats, and wl» '-orapare this victory to the Hi.' ievements of modern war, it ue enough for us to abuse ai vi hem.

Oltl Von Moltke's Health. London Truth. Count Yon Moltke has been staying during the last three weeks at Ragatz, where be has been taking a course of the hot waters of Pfaflers, which are conveyed from the springs along the Tamina gorge in wooden pipes. The Count has been a regular visitor at Ragatz for the last ten years, and he always stays at the Queellenhof, which has the best bathing establishment,, and to which is attached a pleasant terrace garden. Ragatz has been very full this year, but there are few English visitors, as most of them merely stop to view the Pfaffers spray on their way to the Engadine. Count Moltke is in excellent health, aud the Bt6ry that his intellect has become impaired is a, pare romance.

Early Newspapers.

Pom estate Magatine. The oldest English newspaper still existing is the London Gazette bnt there are others, still held by private persons, which date their birth as far back as the seventeenth century. Thus the Worceater Journal was established in 1680 and the Edinborg Gazette nine years later. The oldest London daily paper still existing is the. Morning Post, founded in 1762. The Times, under its present name, dates from 1788. The first daily 'journal attempted in the metropolis was the Postboy of 1695 but the first successful venture under thiB head was the Courant of 1702 and a fac simile reproduction of the first number is given by Mr. Ashton in his book on Social Life in the Reign of Queen Anne." The originator of this humble precursor of our great newspapers was E. Mallet, who resided "next door to the King's Arms Tavern at Fleet Bridgfe." The size is small folio, printed on one side only and the editor concludes hiB first number by remarking that his paper is "designed to give ail the material news as soon as every poet arrives, and ifl confined to half the compass to Bave the public at least half of the impertinences of ordinaynewspapers."

Naked Slaves in Tlmbuctoo, Letter to Baltimore Sun. This girl was being brought in by the Morocco gate, on the road from the city of Morocco. She was nude, comely of lace and figure, with large, dreamy, lovely eyes and streaming long black hair. Her color was of the Olivian type, which shows the red blood coursing in the veins. She was of medium height, and aged about 16 years. Four old Arab "dealers," garbed in all the glitter and tinsel of the Orient, guarded this girl as 'if she were an Amazon of strength and prowess. One old Arab in a loud voice cried out her merits and nationality as they passed on to the center of the town. Halting, the whole party were suddenly surrounded by intend ing buyers, both Christian and pagan They came up to the crouching girl, pulled her arms to and fro, opened her mouth and looked at her teeth made her stand erect, and then haglec over the price. "She is worth $100," said the Arab dealers in one simultataneous cry, "but will let her go for $90 if you take her now." Our drago man translates and tells us how she will go to E^ypt and reach $200 at a first bid.

Von Moltke as an Author. Harrisburg Correspondent. In spite of a long and busy life, Gen, Count Von Moltke, the astute German field marshal, has found time enough to write a book. It is a valuable acquisition to the literature of the day. It is really a long essay, tearing the (Vom Fels zum Meer), "From Rock to Ocean." In the course of his views upon his early life Moltke drifts into a remarkable description of Poland, and expresses his opinion upon the history of that country.

Dr. Karpeles, of Berlin, who is an authority upon Polish matters, in reviewing the essay compliments the old warrior upon his keen insight into its affairs. He says: "It is the most comprehensive account of Polish history and so difficult a theme could not have been handled in a more masterly man ner."

Professor Kurchner has revised the author's manuscript and added a pre face, giving a brief biography of Gen Moltke, with special reference to his early military careers A famous artist has engraved a portrait which adorns the title page. Thus far the book has gone through four editions. ^^4

Bible Publications.

Hartford Times. For the last thirty-four years of the Bible societies of England and America have printed over 10,000 copies for •ach business day. And at an outlay of about $65,000,000, over 145,000,000 copies of the Scriptures have been pub lished by these two societies since their formation in 1804 and 1816, the datesof their respective organizations. If, as has also been estimated the numer OUB

Bible societies and private publish ers have issued as many copies, the number of copieB of Scriptures printed would about equal a copy for every family now living on the globe.

The Women of Heligoland. Correspondence London World. How about the Heligolandish woman Is she lovely and of good report? Lovely, I cannot Bay she is, but she is not unpleasing in features, if somewhat thickset and ungainly in figure, and her chaiacter as wife and mother without reproach. Her costume is not particularly characteristic of her Fris ian origin, her German affinities or her British connections. Her sons and brothers are so healthy and heartylooking one regrets that generation after generation has grown up without learning a syllable of English. ,-v^ 1 1

Emperor William's Accident. London Truth. I hear from reliable authority that the German Emperor's recent accident was not caused, as has been stated, by his horse tripping over a wire, but his majesty, while riding in the park at Babelsberg, fell out of his saddle in a faint, which it was at first feared by his Suite was something in the nature of an apoplectic fit. The afiair was kept wonderfully quite, and it would not have transpired if the emperor had not afterwards been so unwell that it was necessary to invent an excuBe for hiB inability to fulfill some engagements.
