THB Charleston News and Courier •tiBtys there is no use worrying about Ftee«Ient Cleveland's second term. A nore necessary aud profitable Bubjeot Jor speculation, it says, is where we rahallget Another like him when his second term has expired. The Ameriflta people may very well lie awake at sight and think about this problem for it will not be easy to solve when the time comes.

SENATOR FAIR has a thirsty SOD. The father the cost of extinguishing this thirst comes tbe more he must have it qaenched. His father offered him a jguilKmi dollars if be would abstain from I«|aor for a year. The liberality of this proposition and the lakes of liquor that .foaxaed up beyond the securing of so iSocge a sum of money, seemed to strike tbti youth. He shut off short on the dmAiag habit for seven months and fi&en, like the idiot he seems to be, went aa ti spree.

FACSIMILE OF THE FIRST NEWSPAPER. Hie GAZETTE is indebted to Mrs. Boggs, of 801

Scott street, for a fac-simile

«rf 4fae first newspaper ever printed in America. It is the Boston News-Letter dated April 24th, 1704. The only copies •at (be first number of this paper known to be in existence are in the possession of the Massachusetts Historical Society, Boston American Centiquarian Society, Worcester, Mass., and the New York Historical

Society,

New York Gfty. The

fine-simile which Mrs. Boggs owns was printed by the Antique Publishing Co., of Boston.

Tho following are extracts from some ot tbe proofs that the News Letter was, iff a. verity, the first newspaper printed in America: "For about a year previous to the appMceunceof this paper in print, Jno. Campbell, postmaster, was in the habit of writing fee em letters by hand, upon the arrival of the news from Europe, and addressing tho same

Gov. Fitz John Winthrop, of Connecticut, aJLrn supplying a few particular friends with cojKBi thereof. The Massachusetts Historical Society have printed none of these in their proceedings for 18ti7."

KtUfi'lG. Drake's History of Boston says: "Fire days after townmeeting was issued" in Itasfeni the first newspaper published in tiarth America. This was the Boston NewsIjettar. The proprietor aud publisher was loot Campbell. lie was Postmaster of Boston and this ollico gave him superior facilities for the circulation of a newspaper. iStcholaa Boone was associated as publisher." ftfaefcellar's American Printer of Philadeliritiaeays: "The first newspaper in America «nw ti»*» Boston News-Letter, which was firet lamed by Jno. Campbell, on Monday, April 31th, 17'4. It was regularly published for n«Hy seventy-two years."

The latest news from London is four months old, dated Dec. 17tb,1703. The paper is in most part a reprint of letters from London. This was tho period •when Anne had become Queen of Engfsnd tbe and nation was alarmed by the intrigues ot the Pretender (son of James IT.) The letter is filled with plots and ocrantarplote.

There is one remarkable omission in tte paper. It no where states, as have «3ooe all its modern successors, tbat it the largest circulation." However, this omission may have been corrected ia the second week's issue.

His Oefensft of His Vote for TurpieJewett's Majority—Democrats 'Will Not Go Into Joint J£onve,ition

Again.

Indianapolis News: —Sail a Floyd county Democrat today: "The Journal tries to bit our member, M. Jewett, this morning, by saying that, he was elected by a

greatly

reduced majority this time,

That may be true, but it forgets to mention that he was elected by over 200 when the county went Republican for congress by 1,400, the Republican auditor was elected by 1,187, and the prosecutor by 1,000. In the face of the fact that the fight was made almost solely to beat Jewett, makeB his 200 about equivalent to 2,000 under ordinary circumstances." '•I have ho r6fiis6ft to r%gr5t Vote for Judge Turpie," said Representative Robinson to a News reporter this jmorning. /'In casting it I certainly represented the wishes of my constituents. Thave been misrepresented, abused and villified for what I have done—but I could not have done otherwise. Just look at the facts in the case: I made my campaign as a greenback-labor candidate, unanimously indorsed and supported by the Democrats, did not take any part in the congressional fight in the district, and I did not make any premises as to whom I would support for senator. I simply said that the election of my competitor meant a vote for Senator Harrison, and tbat my election meant a vote against him. So far as I was concerned, my campaign was made against Harrison. I was elected by Democratic votes there can be no shadow of doubt about that, in a straight party vote, the district is about 400 Democratic. I was elected by a plurality of 634, and the total Greenback vote in my throe counties was about 200. That shows that I got at least 400 Democratic majority in the district, and I had been twice before eleoted by them. Aa I said, I came up here pledged to no candidate for Senator, but pledged against Harrison. After we had selected Capt. Allen, I stuck to him as long as there was even a remote possibility of electing him. Our only chance was to break the Democratic seventy-five, and we could not do it. I saw this, and felt that I could not consistently hold out longer, for it was absolutely useless, and I voted for Turpie, as I believe a great majority of my constituents wanted me to vote, I did not act in bad faith with my three associates. Ou Saturday, when Mr. Glover refrained from voting, as did the Republicans, and thus helped to prevent a quorum, I went to him and tbe others and told them that I considered that our compact and agreement was broken by his action, and that I did not consider myself further bound by it. I also told them that I would not do anything unless ail the members were present, and I waited for them. I only did as I thought was my duty, and anybody who intimates that I was unduly influenced, simply states a lie."

The Democrats have had enough of joint convention, and while they have not agreed definitely on the details of their future action, they have about decided not to go into convention any more, even for the purpose of electing a state librarian, state statistician, trustees of tbe benevolent institutions, directoro of the state prisons etc. All these positions are at present held by Democrate, who under the law, hold until their successors are elected and qualified. In the absence of an election they will either continue in office or be reappointed by the governor. Some of the Democrats siy, and Mr. Gordon, of Putnam, is very decidedly of this view, that if a fair and just bill for the reorganization of all the institutions is offered they will support it, and let the appointing power be solely in the hands of the governor. There seems to be little probability of any such law being enacted, however, for the Grose bill, which has provisions of this kind, is open to objection on the part of many members who do not believe that there Bhoiild be women on the various boards. From present indications the director, trustees, officers, etc., now in will be allowed to retain their positions unless some compromise is agreed upon by the Republicans and Democrats.

JOHN A. LOGAN..

Eulogies ia the Senat8 Today dn j** the Dead Statesman.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 9—Every seat in the Senate gallery except those reserved for the Diplomatic Corps, the family of the President and the Ladies' Press Association was filled this morning when the Senate was called to order. Mrs Logan and her son, daughter and friends, to the number of twenty-five, occupied seats in the private gallery. The chaplain in his prayer alluded to Senator Logan, asking that those who turned from the open grave, with sympathizing hearts, might ever be filled with the spirit of Him, who was touched with the feeling of human infirmities,

As soon as the journal was read Mr Cnllom rose and offered a resolution, that, as an additional mark of respect to the memory of John A, Logan, long a Senator from tbe state of Illinois, a distinguished member of tbis body, business he now suspended, in order that, the friends and associates of the deceased may pay fitting tribute to his public and private services. He then proceeded to address tbe Senate. He spoke of this being the third time in the present Congress that the Senate was called upon to eulogize deceased members of the body. Today they met to lay the tribute of their love on the tomb of Logan. But yesterday, it seemed. Logan had stood among them in the full flush of robust manhood, a giant in strongth and endurance, with a will of iron and a constitution tough as the sturdy oak. He had seemed to hold within his grasp more than the three score years and ten allotted to man. No one had thought, in the same moment, of Logan and Death—two conquerors who had come face to face, the weaker to yield to the stronger. It had seemed as if Logan oould not die, and yet, in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, God's finger touohed him and he slept.

Mr. Morgan followed. He said that in all Logan did and said he was a truly sincere and resolutely upright man. There was no guile or evasion about him, but he was a bold, pronounced, dignified, earnest, manly, firm, generous, true man.

Mr. Edmunds, Mr. Manderson and Mr. Hampton also spoke.

'1 Resolutions of Respect. At a called communication of New Goshen Lodge No. 557, F. & A. M., held in Masonio Hall in New Goshen, Ind., January 17th, 1887, the following preamble and resolutions were unanimously adopted:

Resolved, That as a testimony of respect for onr departed brother this lodge room and furniture be droned in mourning and that we each wear the usnal badge ot mourning far thirty days, remembering, though dead, his memory shall be cherished by ua to tbo close of life.

The Fisheries Question.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 9—Several Democratic members of the House committee on foreign affairs had an interview with the President today in connection with the retaliatory fisheries legislation now pending in Congress. The interview was strictly confidential.

The President sought to impress upon the members of the Committee the necessity of making very clear and free from ambiguity any measure relating to the subject of tho fisheries which Congress might see lit to pass. If'there was to be any legislation on the subject it should state definitely whether railroads and ail other carriers were to be included in the prohibition.

While the President did not oommit himself to any legislation in the subject, tbe geutlemen present gathered from his remarks that as between the two bills he favored the House bill.

1IID HIS CRIME.

A Murdered Man Found in a .1 Horse'sDead Carcass.-

LOUISVILLE, Ky., Feb. 9.—A most horrible discovery was made in Green county, this state, last Saturday. The dead body of John Koeth was found wrapped in a blanket and concealed inside tbe carcass of a dead horse. It is supposed that he was murdered and his body concealed there by the murderer. Keeih was a brotber-in-law of m. Despain. He has been missing for several days, but no search had been made for him, his friends supposing that he was away on a visit, until a dog belonging to Wm. Despain came into the house on Saturday morning carryI ing something in his mouth, which, when examined, was found to be the hand of a man. Mr. Despain tracked the dog to tbe carcase of an old horse and was horrified to find the body of his brother-in-law therein half eaten up by dogs. It was a horrible sight. The mystery connected with tbe affair will probably never be solved. Koeth was a married man and the father of six children.

SMITH'S BRUISES.

Superintendent Schmitt, of Cleveland, telegraphed here that Smith's story is correct and advisiog that he be released. A few minutes later Sheriff Sawyer, o? Cleveland,telegraphed that he did not believe the story o? Smith and asking that be be held until his arrival today. Smith is still in cus* today. He refuses to have his pictures taken and demands to be taken to Cleveland.

Jebate in the Commons.

LONDON. Feb. 9—In the Commons last night John Morloy resumed the debate on Parnell's amendment to the address in reply to the Queen's speech. TE£e declared that there was no remedy short of granting Irish self-government and the amendment of Mr. Parneli's pointed out the only possible policy for the proper government of Ireland. Jacob Bright brother of John Bright, followed Mr. Morley. He said the relations between landlord and tenant in

Ireland area far greater scandal than the "Plan of Campaign." England, he declared, discredited itself by refusing to give np an impossible task, and that was the government of Ireland.
