villainous intimation that our

Geo. sue ceeded with his "garroting tale,J' in ex citing his Bucktown "brudders," but this Wabash rumor is too plain a hoax to excite a member of the colored persuasion much." Dickhout says: "Tell that bag gage smasher if he wants ajob bad, he can 'buck away' at one of bis famous sole leather trunks, or try his hand on one of his sole leather cases, as they are warranted to stand him or any other man nine years." "So, viper, gnaw away at that file."

THE shops of the Indianapolis fe St. Louis Railroad are located at Mattoon, Illinois, and it is now proposed to remove them to Terre Haute. Why not bring them to this city.—Ind.Sentinel.

In answer to this anxious query we unhesitatingly answer, because the com-pany-will find all that is desirable in the way of water, coal and iron in this city, and Terre Haute is more central than Indianapolis. In short, the advantages of Terre Haute ovar any other point on the line of this road for the location of the shops thereof, are top numerous to mention in one issue of a metropolitan daily.

EDITORIAL GATHEREING.—Springfield,

Illinois, has recently enjoyed an editorial gathering, and the Knights of the Quill organized an invasion of the Hoosier Capital or the Queen City of the West, from the city of Champagn, where they hold their next meeting. The efficient managing editor, Hobart, of that spicy little publication, the Chicago Evening Mail', was chosen to read an original poem at their regular annual meeting at Champagn.

THE

Mail made it debut under the

management of P. S. Westfall,Saturday, for the first time. To say that it gave entire satisfaction and a fair augury for its future success is but echoing a sentiment freely and frequently expressed on the streets. Several new and interesting features have been added. Politics will in the future as in the part, be handled on an independent basis.

everybody realize the pallid,

doughy, and generally unteresting complection to which the Woman-Suffrage Cause has come? %he Revolution has subsided without one coy murmur into the embrace of—good heavens!—a religious weekly. From Boston comes the rumor that The Woman's Journalism* bad way—sadly out-at-elbows, in fact, and growing pinched on a starveling diet of subscription. There's a vague whisper fioatnig about to the effect that some frantic souls are endeavoring to start a new paper advocating the cause. They are only waiting for somebody to subscribe ten thousand dollars. The moon will probably fall about the time that plum does. The leaders keep up their silly little struggles for precedence, but nobody pays any attention—it is too old and threadbare a story. Their offense is always rank, and that quarrel will never be stopped until they are like the members of Captain Artemus Ward's valiant malitia company—all brigadiergenerals.

Washington washerwoman are

fiends in human shape, if what is said of them is true. It is stated that they persuade credulous customers that it takes from six to ten days to properly wash and iron clothes. The customer leaves them, confiding in the fidelity of his laundress. The work is really completed on the first or second day, anp horrible to relate, the clean garments are then hired out for the day or evening or until the expiration of the time stipulated by the washerwoman. Of course it is principally women who indulge in a great variety of elaborately trimmed underclothing, who furnish the majority of the victims. The horrors of such a practice are too profound for words to adequately describe. Fancy the sensation of two ladies strangers to each other—upon Number One of them discovering that Number Two has on a portion of the apparel belonging to Number One. The tableau would be apt to be impressive.

Fishing For Cats in Texas. Just before our arrival a fishing party had unprecedented luck. One disciple of Izaak Walton, with hook and line, caught a fine, fat cat, weighing ten pounds. He leisurely towed him toward the shore, when, in an instant, his hand was stunned by some serious obstruction. With the aid of his nearest neighbor, he brought his game to land. To his joy and surprise it was discovered that the smaller cat had been swallowed, book and bait, by an immense fish, and both were safely landed and cared for. The second fish weighed eighty pounds and the whole ninety. This fact was verified by the post chaplain and other creditable authorities.

The object of his affection lives in an adjoining county, and, besides other possessions, has what is said be a good farm. The man has determined to find out whether the land is rich and fertile, and fbr this 3urpose has employed a colored man to lire himself to the young lady's father for a month or so during plow time. He is to report the condition of the land to the young man, who has agreed, in the event of the land being rich to marrjr the vounglady and take the colored minister into partnership. That young man has an eye to business.

NEW YORK,

March 4.—The east bound

freight train on the Erie railway, ran into the rear of another train standing on the same track near Middletown, N. Y., yesterday afternoon. The caboose belonging to the forward train was wrecked and the stove overturned, setting fire to the caboose and to a car loaded with flour. Both were consumed. The heat from the burning flour was so intense as to destroy ties and heat the rails to a white glow. No lives lost.

The Times Washington special says that tEe report that differences of opinion in regard to the character of the reply to Lord Granville's note is not true, and that the utmost secrecy be maintained as to the position to be assumed. The answer goes out in nearly the same language in which it was prepared by the Secretary of State.

An official reception of the Japanese Embassy takes place to-day, and will be of a most precise and formal character.

An official programme has been arranged between Secretary Fish and the Chief of the Embassy, with the utmost particularity of detail. The reception will take place in the East Room. The President, accompanied by the Vice President and Cabinet, Speaker of the House, members of Foreign Relations Commit' tee of the Senate on Foreign Affairs Committee of the House, and officers of the army and navy, in full uniform, will take ppstion in line according to rank on the east side of the room, preceeded by the Japanese who will occupy a similar po sition, and take their place in the same line and order of rank.

When all is ready Iwakura, chief ambassador, at the head of the Japanese line, will turn half around and read his address to the President, who will respond. This done, the Secretary of State will present the American officials in order to the member of the Embassy, who will then return to their former positions. The occasion will then assume more the character of a gerieralTeceptionj The Japanese will be in the full costume of their country. All the Americans will wear straw colored gloves, at the special request of the Japanese.

March 4.—A Washington

special to the Tribune says A resolution to appoint the Senate Committee to investigate the sales of arms to France with Trumbull's amendment, substituting Schur^'s name for Sherman's. It is expected to come up any hour to-day. The indications are that if Trumbull's amendment will be agreed to, the House Committee on public lands have agreed to report a bill with some important changes in the land laws. A bill indirectly repeals the pre-emption laws, under which so many frauds are perperated.

There are many indications that the proposition to amend the Constitution so as to admit the election of Postmasters by the people, is rapidly gaining in favor.

S E N A E

Mr. Ferryr of Michigan, presented a number of memorials from lumberies in the northwest, setting forth a reason why the Chicago relief bill ought not to pass.

Mr. Logan read a letter in favor of its passage. Messrs. Windom and Ferry presented memorials for a modi dcation of the homestead laws.

Mr. Casserly presented a petition from the leading bankers and merchants of San Francisco for a reform in the civil service.

Mr. Pratt called up the bill to -release to Indiana the lands known as the bed of Beaver Lake in Newton county, Indiana, and addressed the Senate thereon.

Mr. Pratt's Beaver Lake bill passed. Mr. Bayard moved to take up his resolution asking for copies of the instructions given the District Attorney of New York relative to the prosecution of merchants.

Mr. Conklingsaid the instructions were fully published in the newspapers, and there was, therefore, no necessity to pass the resolution hurriedly. He thought it would be better to wait until he and others could express their views of the resolution and of Mr. Bayard's motives.

Mr. Bayard said that- if he had based his speech on mere newspaper items, Mr. Conkling would have lJteen the first to call him to order. The allusion to his motives he thought ungracious, and necessarily ignored Mr. Conkling, and he had no means of ascertaining them except from his public remarks, besides judging from Mr. Conkling's. action in reference to the organization of the Retrenchment Committee and its investigations. He feared the Senator from New York could hardly understand his motives. He did intend to comment on the conduct of the officers who had given the instructions, but he wished to base his comments ou authentic information. He had asked for it in the usual and only proper way.

Mr. Trumbull moved to adjourn, which was carried—year 22, nays 21.

Two culled preachers were in the same pulpit together. While one was preaching he happened to say, "When Abraham built the ark." The one behind him strove to correct his blunder by saying out loud, "Abraham warn't thar." But the speaker pushed on, heedless of the interruption, and only took occasion shortly to repeat, still more decidedly, "I say, when Abraham built the ark." "And I say," cried out the other, "Abraham warn't thar." The preacher was too hard to be beaten down in this way, and addressing the people, exclaimed with great indignation, "I say Abraham was thar'or thar'abouts!"

the United State Army officers who were present at the evacuation of Fort Sumpter, five are dead, namely: Generla Auderson, who died at Nice, and Lieutenants Talbert,. Schneider, Meade and Fall and the five living are General J. C.
