Nomura more has been heard of the Tennessee woman and her seven babies. It was evidently a snake story.

T*b dead-lock at Albany continues. Piatt has withdrawn from the contest, but Conkling is still willing to return to the Senate if the people want him to.

It is stated by those who have investigated the matter and profess to knew, that Indiana will only have about half an acreage wheat crop the present year.

Vanderwi.,t has thirty of the best wood carvers in Europe at work on the wood in his new house. It takes Americans to do things when they take a notion to.

The Government realized a net profit of $257,575 out of the postal money-order business during the fiscal year, which would indicato that the foes might be re4oced somewhat.

Thk Ex-Presidential fund of $250,000 la soon to be turned over to Gen. Grant, who is to enjoy the income of the fund during his life. The destination of the fund at his death is to be determined by a majoMty of the subscribers.

Senator Srshionh, of the New York (.legislature, has been indicted for bribery. The Anti-Conkling men claim that the whole matter is a set-up job to bring, them and their cause into disreputo. It is a bad mess, and will not help the Republican party In Now York.

Tim Cincinnati iron-workers are on a strike for increased wages, to the extent of twonty or twenty-fivo per cent, more than the wages paid in Pittsburg, and it is feared, If the strikers provo obstinate In their demands, that the iron and steel industries of Cincinnati will be seriously crippled.

Thk man jtho murdered his fellow passenger in an English railway car the other day has been arrested and will probably bo hanged in due courso of time. This is well, but the abolition of thoabsurd system of locking passengers up in eompartmonts is tho way to prevent similar crimes in tho future.

Tub question in Indianapolis is whether or not the law requiring liquor saloons to be closed on Sunday is to be enforced. The temperance people are clamoring for the strict enforcement of the law., but tho new police board lacks courage to make the order, and meantime tho saloon men continue to reap their Sunday harvest as of old.

Tiikrk is still great pressuro for office in Washington, all persons having any control »f appointments being greatly annoyed by tho constant applications for appointments. If they only knew it, the majority of these people are better ofTat home than they would be with a clerkship in Washington. But it's hard to got them to see it in that light.

Thk comet now visiting us is nothing to compare In brilliancy and proportions with that of 1861. Still, it is a very respectable comet, having a tail four million miles long, theastronomerssay, or capable of wrapping itself round the earth 100 times. Considering the ft»et that wo haven't bad a comet for twenty years, we ought to be thankful for this

Thk Cincinnati Gaxotte wants the "sweet girl graduates" of our female college* to consent to be called Spinsters of Art*, which, it argues, would be far more appropriate than to call them bachelor*. The argument is specious, but it will never become popular with the girls. They would rather be bachelors all their live* than spinsters for one hour. They will have nothing to do with the horrid word. ______________

Thr decline of the shipbuilding industry is New England can be appreciated frohttbe figures, which show that in lSfxr the touage of vessels built was while that of 1S80 was but 46,374. His understood to be Secretary Blaine's purpose to give special attention to the development of American shipping, by the character of consular appointments abroad, and thus endeavor to stimulate the shipbuilding interest in tfclseoontty again.

Kttwix Booth has returned from his tour in England, and pronounces himself in every way pleased with his tecep^ Uon abroad. The pleasure of his sojourn was only marred by the ill-health of his wjfe, which is of such a nature that UuJe hope Is entertained of her ultimate recovery. Mr. Booth speaks in the highest tevs»s of the English actor, Irving, with whom he played a number of angagenMaia. Mr. Booth will begin a starring tour of the States next October, playing no til the following May.

Much lias been

aid and written on

the subject of fiction is oar pntriic libraries, and now tfce Boston library is undergoing investigation lqr aeteci committee. It Ins been developed that seventy-five per cent, of the books circulated are novels and that they are mostly taken oat by young people and further that some of them, if net positively pernicious, are at toast wone than worthless. The demand is made for a weeding oat of this class of kecks, and the committee are considering the best course to pursue in the matter. The Mall has often, in times gone by, taken occasion to rebuke the theary that all reading of novels is harmful and vicious and to assert that some of the finest and most valuable work in English literstare is to be found in 41m domain of fiction. But while this is true it is also true that the excessive reading of novels is weakening to the mind. And while we would not follow the example of one public library which excludes novels altogether from its shelves, neither is it wise to foltow the lead of others which load their shelves with ephemeral trash that has not been tested by time, and perishes with the season which gave it birth. The strong probabilities are that just at this time the devotion to "light literature," especially*by the young people, is excessive. A policy of repression rather than stimulation is called for in the management of our public libraries.

Thk remarkable series of revival meetings which have been going on in Roberts Park M. E. church, at Indianapolis, during the past three months, under the ministrations of the young evangelist, Thomas Harrison, came to a close, on Thursday night, in a grand jubilee and praise meeting, which would have been attended by several thousand people had the church been large enough to hold them. As it was, hundreds were turned away, being unable to gain admission. The meetiags resulted in upwards of 1,200 conversions, a greater number, Mr. Harrison says, than he has ever had before, in an equal space of time, in any other place. This does not, however, represent the entire result of his work, for the Roberts Park meetings awakened religious feelings in all the churches of the city, most of which held revival services, and some are still doing so. The total number of conversions resulting from all the meetings cannot be less than 2,000, and may exceed that figure. No sueh revival has ever before visited Indianapolis, and it is thought the work will be resumed with new vigor during next winter. A singular thing about it is that great prejudice existed against the Evangelist at the outset, which has since entirely vanished.

Has Edison turned rside from bis work on the electric Slight to seek new worlds to conquer? It is announced that he has discovered a method of extracting iron from tfa^s sea sands by the use of electricity. It is- said that it has been known for along time that the sea sands along the Atlantic coast contain from 20 to 80 per cent of iron but no satisfactory means of separating the ore could bo found. Edison has discovered tho open sesame, a company has been formed and "vast areas of sea coast have been purchased or leased" for the purpose of engaging in the new process of Iron making. This may not be exactly like the extraction of sunbeams from cucumbers, which Gulliver found them doing at a certain place in his travels, but we would aot reccommend large investments in stock of the new company until the Magnetic Iron Works are in successful operation.

A bulletin issued by the National Board of Health gives the death rate in a'number of the principal cities of the country. The figures given represent the number of deaths to each one thousand of population. Some of these figures arc as follows: New York, 28.5 Philadelphia, 18.6 Brooklyn, 19.9 Boston, 21.2 Chicago, 21.5 Cincinnati, 20.2 St. Louis, 17.4 New Orleans, 40.4 San Francisco, 19.6 Indianapolis, 17.4 Cleveland, 19.6. Of those which show sn exceptionally small desth rate are Dubaque, 7.0 Davenport, 7.2, and Omaha, 10.8. Of all the places given, Jacksonville, Florida, shows the highest deathrate, being 46.8. Doubtless this is partly owing to the large influx of invalids to the place from all sections of the country, many of whom are so f*r gone with disease that they are unable to be removed to their hoows before death claims them.

Mr. At.RXANDsaSwrrr, of Cincinnati has purchased Clover Nook, the old homestead of the Gary sisters, near that eity, and will keep it for picnic purposes. 11m place contains twenty-six acres and it is Sir. Swift's intention not to charge anything bat simply to keep the premises in repair, so that persons visiting the place may find it as nearly as possible ia the condition it was in when Alice and Phoebe Cary lived there, before their exodus to New York. Many people from all sections of the country will no doubt avail themselves of the opportunity thus afforded to visit the spot consecrated to the memory of two of the most pure and beautiful names in American literature.

Onk of the most fearful railroad accidents that has ever happened occurred last Friday night by a bridge over the San Antonio river, in Mexico, giving ay. The train was loaded with troops of whom over two hundred officers ami men were killed outright and a great number injured. The bridge, never too sate, had been weakened by recent floods. The horror of the situation was aggravated by the taking fire of a lot of alcohol

THE DAY WE CELEBRATE. On Monday we will celebrate—every

•man

to his notion, every woman as she wills, and every child ss he has been trained. The adopted citisen will jubilate as enthusiastically as the native born, which shows that the Declaration of Independence, adopted 105 years ago was not for Americans alone, bat for the people of all nations. On the approach of Jthis ^anniversary it is proper to tell in hrief how we cane to have a '•Fourth" to celebrate. The second Cos tinental Congress, which adopted the immortal Declaration of Independence, met at Philadelphia, May 10, 177*. was composed of fifty-eix members representing the thirteen original colonies. Among the aaemhers were Wash ington, Benjamin Franklin, John Han cock, Saaanel Adsua, John Adams, Richard Henry Lee, Patrick Henry, John Jay, Livingston, and ethers known to fame. Hostilities with the mother eeantry had already begun. The battles of Lexington and Concord had been fongfct, and the sentiment in favor of independence had already taken root, But Congress was conservative to the last, and, while making

preparations

This is why we celebrate.

The wife of the sheriff at Grand Haven, Mich., is a woman of nerve. During her husband's absense the other night party of masked men called upon her to open the doors of the jail that they might take out a prisoner for Judge Lynch to try. She very politely acceded to their request, and opening the door of the prison allowed them to walk solemnly in. Then closing the door she turned the key and told them they were her prisoners. In the morning her husband returned and delivered the wouldbe lynchers over to the authorities.^

Apparently our public men enjoy Washington life, as many of them manifest a disposition to make it the place of their permanent residence. Justice Stanley Matthews has just purchased a building lot, at a cost of $17,500, on which he will at once begin the erection of a handsome residence, while Senator Pendleton has $20,000 house now un der way, the second and third stories of which are to be finished in yellow Indiana poplar. It will be a beautiful house of three stories and a basement, with elevator, and all the other modern improvements of elegance and comfort

Thk astronomers are all tore up about the comet which plunged into oar little solar system so unexpectedly.

The Chicago city council is considering an ordinance to forbid the distribution of handbills on the streeC the reason assigned for the prohibition being that the bills Utter the street and choke the sewers. A better reason is that the distribution is an intolerable nuisance to pedestrians.

war, sent still another petition to the king denying any intention of separation from England, and asking only for redress of grievances. Washington assumed command of the continental army July 3, 1775. The battle of Bun ker Hill occured Juno 17, and from that time there was little talk or hope of a peaceful settlement. For the next year Congress was busy with measures of war and finance. The colonies were in a state of rebellion, but had not yet de clared their independence. On the 7th June, 3776, more than a year after hostilities had begun, Richard Henry Lee, a delegate from Virginia, introduced a resolution into Congress declaring, "That these united colonies are and of right ought to be, free and Independent States that they are absolved from all allegiance to the British crown, and that all political connection between them and the state of Great Britain is, and ought to be, totally dissolved." This resolution was referred to committee of ithe whole, and after some discussion its further consideration was postponed to the first day of July. At the same time, in order that no time be lost," a committee was appointed to prepare a declaration in accordance with the resolution. This committee consisted of Thomas Jefferson, John Adams, Benjamin Franklin, Roger Sherman, and Robert Livingston. On Monday, July 1, the House discussed the question in committee of the whole. At the close of the session nine colonies voted for the resolution, South Carolina and Pensyl vania voted unanimously against, and Delaware was divided. At the dtse of debate, Julyy2, twelve colonies vodAi for it. The New York delegates,- awlpting instructions from the people, refrained from voting. On the 4th the Doclara tion of Independence was adopted by the same vote. It was authenticated and published the same day, and was signed Aug. 2, by the delegates of all the colonies, the New York convention having approved the act July 9.

A BARBAROUS BARBARITY. Marlboro (Mass.) Times. Barbed wire fence is the most cruel, barbarous, inhuman and utterly demoniac contrivance that ever, disgraced our highways and pastures. It is enough to make a man's flesh creep and bis blood curdle every time he sees it, to think of its hadesish possibilities of multilation of men and beasts. It is an outrageous thing to set up in a back pasture, where there is small danger of anything but dogs and cattle running against it but when set along a highway, as wo nave seen it in some places, where human beings, as well as animals, were liable to stumble against it in the dark where children playing, might run against it and lacerate their flesh, it gives any right-feeling man a taste of emotions which the revised scripture furnishes no words adequate to express.

WHAT IS DEMANDED IN A NEWSPAPER. Boston Journal.

There is a demand for "smartness the writer who can say bright and stinging things is applauded and the paper which is audacious to the verge of libel, and is reckless of the truth if it can only find ahead somewhere to hit, is reckoned as brilliant. The thoughtful observer of the course of events finds nothing more discouraging in modern society than this tendency to flippant judgment this disposition to tnke a satirical and mocking view of human life and conduct this readiness to judge men at their worst, and to jump at the conclu sion that they are base. It is to be. regretted that so many journalists are content to minister to these tendencies, and if all members of the profession enter tained the same view of their responsibilities, it would be a good thing for society to have the weight ,of editorial opinion, already lessened by thecircumstances to which we have referred, still more diminished.

June 5, 1881.

Dr. Jordan—It is but Just that I should acknowledge the benefit derived from your treatment. For nearly eight years previous to my applying to you I nad been suffering with difficulties which my medical advisers pronounced consumption, attended continually with a severe cough. My throat and tonsils became inflamed, and the latter much enlarged, until a small portion of one of them was removed by excision. My oough continued to Increasc^until all medlcalfeentJemcn to whom I applied pronounced the lower lobes of my Itings ulcerated. I had lost my smell on account of catarrh. I suffered for seven yean with pain in my side, socalled liver complaint, in thlseondltlon, sir, rou found me. Doctor. I most ask pardon or speaking so abruptly to you when you old

cure? fiut I was persuaded "by MmTFarmer, Mrs. Mac? and several of your patients to try your treatment, as you had cured them of chronic ailments of years' standing. Most of them I was personalIy acquainted with or IJnever should have tried your treatment. The doctors called yon a "quack" some said rou was a mechanic. But when you examned me and told me my ailments so correctly, without asking me a word, I believed you understood your business.

I will close by saying you have cured me. My digestion is good, and no female weakness whatever no trouble with my head or lungs. 1 have gained three and a half Inches around my chest. I have not taken any medicine for about eight months. I attribute my recovery to yoor medical skill and timely aid. for which we send oar best wishes and regards to yoo. Hoping yon may long live to relieve all others who may call on yon, who are suffering with Innumerable diseases that baffle the doll of other pnyriclana.

Youis truly, Mas. W*. VESTAL. Mr. Wm. Vestal is a respectable farmer at Belle Union, Putnam county, Ind. The recovery of hi* wife is still spoken of in that region as little less a miracle.
