The bill differs from Mr. Gladstone’s measure chiefly in the omission of a legislative body at Dublin. Otherwise it fully meets the aspirations of the Home-Rulers in regard to transferring to local bodies the direction of Irish affairs now dealt with at Westminster. The Czar of Russia is in a state of intense mental irritation; and is the subject of vagaries almost amounting to madness. He suffers greatly from inability to sleep, and passes whole nights walking to and fro in his well-guarded apartments. During these leepless nights he occupies his rest'ess mind in dictating to bis secretaries । varying plans for the settlement of the Bulgarian question and for extensive mili-

tary campaigns. The imperial family and the ministers are alarmed at these indications of a precarious mental condition. A petroleum spring, affording a good supply, has been discovered under a house in Sligo, Ireland.... The police authorities have sent to Berlin a description of the chief organizer of the anarchist plot to burn Vienna, who is believed to* be in Germany. A search for him has been instituted. ...

A Millionaire as a Reporter. New Y’ork letter to Galveston Nevins: Time and again the assertion has been printed that George W. Vanderbilt wished to become a newspaper reporter, and I do not imagine that readers generally gave entire credence to it. Nevertheless, it was true. George is the youngest son of the late William H. Vanderbilt, and a sharer in the estate to the extent of about $30,000,000. At the time us his effort to get into journalism he was only an heir prospective, and he had a strong desire to do something on his own account, “I had an idea that I could become a writer,” he said, “and I believed that there was no better schooling to be had than as a reporter. I fancied that I would like the work, too. I went down to the Sun office and talked with Mr. Dana about it, and he said he would give me a place on the staff on the same footing as the other reporters. That was what I wanted. But father opposed it. He believed I wouldn’t get a fair, square opportunity—that the public would be censorious of my work, no matter bow careful my employers might be to deal with me exactly as with the others, So I gave it up, and it is now too late.” What he meant, as I construed it, was that, having acquired an enormous fortune, it is too late for him to accomplish anything else. He has a marked literary bent, however, and is apt to write a book sooner or later. George Vanderbilt is the wealthiest bachelor in America. One of the old Roxburghe ballads just published in England runs thus: Yo Gods, you gave mo a wife, Out of your wonted favor, To boa comfort of my life, Aud-I was glad to have her. But if your Providence divine For something else design her, T' obey your will, at any time, I'm ready to resign her.

BOMB THROWEKS OF CHICAGO. A Brief History of the Mau Who Received Eleven Terrible Wounds at the Haymarket Massacre, and Still Lives. / ’ > 3^ w ■- ! James P. Stanton, ex-Detective and Lieutenant of the Muuicipal Police Force of Chica- I go, and the hero of the great Haymarket massiero, in winch he sustained eleven terrible wounds while leading his platoon to action, has been prominently known in official circles for many years, and is one of the most energetic and intelligent members of the department. Lieutenant Stanton is a na:ive of England, and was born in Birmingham, the son of John and Winifred Stanton, March 25, 1844, where his father was a well-known bookbinder. In 1842 the latter v sd-d Chicago, and, February 2.‘>, ISSO, removed his family t > this city, where ioFeight years the son worked at the trade of glazier an 1 painter.

Carry, aims! Forward, I march “Bang! hang! ziss!” Seventy-five men dashed for the ; door and tumbled over each other ; down stairs, ten jumped out of a third- ■ story window, eight fainted, six fell on i their knees and commenced praying, ! and one nearly butted out his brains i trying to crawl into a mouse hole.

The editor of the Corsicana, Texas, Observer, Mr. G. P. Miller, had a severe attack of rheu: latism in his left knee, which became so swollen and painful that he could not walk up the stairs.

A democracy has difficulties enough of its own to contend with, without wantonly imperiling its existence by importing problems of alien origin. We cannot, without detriment to ourselves and our institutions, adopt Bismarckian methods of repression; and the anarchical tendencies, which are the result of these methods, require more heroic remedies than our laws at present provide. One ounce of prevention, as the saying is, is worth a pound of cure. A law to prevent the importation of undesirable immigrants would, if passed in time, avert future dangers, not by solving the labor problem, but by making it easier of solution.—Prof. Hjalmar Hj or th Boyesen. “No Physic, Sir, in Mine!” A good story comes from a boys’ boardingschool in “Jersey.” The diet was monotonous and constipating, and the learned Principal decided to introduce some old-style physic in the apple-sauce, and await the haupy results. One bright lad, the smartest in s >ol, discovered the secret mine in his sauce, and pushing back his plate, shouted to the pedagogue, “No physic, sir, in mine.

An old trapper and hunter known as “Mountain Sam” is doing a land office business killing huge mountain sheep for their heads and horns. These he ships to New York to fill the orders which he is constantly receiving, and there they are mounted. Sam’s best customers are wealthy Englishmen. i For many years “ Mountain Sam” has buried himself in the most remote recesses of the Big Horn Mountains. Sam rounds up the wild sheep with dogs. His pack numbers twenty-five head, ' and they are a pure cross of bloodhound and bull-dog. Mountain born and bred, these noble animals add to the natuial strength and sagacity of their blood-strains a marvelous eudurI ance and activity. No snow-depth, no roughnes-i of trail, no steepness of precipice, no loftiness of peak, no remoteness of locality, can stop the mountain dog when on the track of the mountain sheep. The pack works in an organized way when the trail of a band of sheep is struck. The dogs break into little bunches and wide and careful circuits are made. The closely pressed sheep are hurried toward a common center, and they will soon be bunched, with twenty-five stanch dogs, cres s erect and tails wagging, moving about them in an endless and eager circle. The pack has been known to bunch 250 head of sheep, and to hold their xvatch and guard for over six hours aivaiting the coming of their master, who has been kept back by the dilli 2 unities lying in his path. It sometimes occurs that the dogs bring the game together on a spot that is utterly inaccessible to human feet. Then the hunter gives the dogs notice of the fact by a peculiarly shrill and piercing shout. 'J he pack at once dash into the midst of the sheep, seize and slay the largest, and by dint of rolling, tumbling, and falling from crag to crag, from declivity to declivity, bring the carcasses witbin reach of their master. —Denver Tribune. Over Many a League Spreads the iniasma, or poisonous vapor, that begets malarial and typhus fever. Wherever there is stagnant water in which vegetation, or refuse of any kind decays, there, as surely as the sun rises, are generated the seeds of fever and ague, dumb ague, and other endemic maladies of th > malarial type. For the effects of this envenomed air, Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters furnishes an antidote, and prevents both the contraction and recurrence of such maladies.

The Study of Advertisement It is not as adequately recognized as it should be how much insight into the character of a city can I e obtained by a close and discriminating study of the advertising columns of a daily newspaper published in said city. A Pitt ;- burger who had never been in Baltimore could form a tolerably correct idea of that place by a critical examin- j ation of one of its leading papers. He would know its places of amusement, its railroad facilities, its steamers, its banking and insurance institutions, ami have a good general notion of its industries, trade, etc., from business advertisements. The want columns, and the financial columns, and the domestic market reports are instructive, and the notices of societies and orders tell a story. Local nows, so-called, only covers a day, but these advertisements show the whole anatomy. Y’et the casual newspaper reader often overlooks this valuable key to a eity. In fact, women study advertisements more curiously and constantly than men, and dry-goods merchants do well to give heed to this fact. The value of advertising is shown by the marvelous circulation of papers that "ire chiefly taken on account of the advertisements in them. Our present purpose, however, is to call attention to the study of advertisements as a revelation of the multiform and many-colored aspects of the organism known as a city. An intelligent investigator in this field will be richly rewarded.— Piltsbzirg Chronicle. “Hello!” wo hoard one man say to another the other day. “I didn't know you at first; why! you look ten years younger than you did when I saw you last” “I feel ten years younger,” was the reply. “You know I used to be under the weather all the time and gave up expecting to bo any better. The doctor said I had consumption. I was terribly weak, had n flit-sweats, cough, no appetite, and lost flesh. I saw Dr, Pierce’s ‘Golden Medical Discoverv’ advertised, and thought it would do no harm if it did no good. It has cured me. I am a new man be.ause I am a well one.” Panic of 1857. The great financial panic of 1857 commenced on the 24th of August, and continued into February of the year following. ’.l he most universally accepted cause for the panic of 1857 was the violent contraction of bank loans immediately after the suspension of the Ohio Lite and T.ust Company, which took place August 24. On receipt of this news the financial circle vibrated to its very center; banking officers, by the siidenness of the blow, lost their heads; the first clearinghouse report, after the suspension of the Trust Company, showed a reduction of $4,000,0(10 m the bank loans : over the previous week. A defalcation of $7,000,000 in one of the associated banks was announced the same day. The most substantial securities sold for next to notning at public auction. Commercial houses and banks succumbed to the panic. According to Dr. Tipton, of Alabama, the negroes - before the war in the South never had phthisis, but now it is the greatest scourge among them. He also says that the negro is rarely if ever near-sighted. Habit Cured. Treatment sent on trial.
