SATURDAY. JULY 26. 1384.

Subscribers leaving the city during the summer monUiS, can have The Xews mailed to than regularly at the usual rates by leaving their address at the counting room.

The word of the hour: Clean up.

The New York Bun thinks Butler might carry five sUtes: New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Ohio and ladiana.

What are the consequences most likely to follow the candidscy of St. John for the presidency? Mr. Burdette, of lewa, who is authority on “the rice and fall of the moustache,” might answer this.

There Is a report of the cholera on a Mississippi river steamer, which landed at St. Louis, yesterday. It was that of a six months’ old child. Its death, on board, was attributed to summer complaint. That was doubtless what it was.

Only the most energetic measures to clean every nook and^cranny of the city, and keep them clean, will save us from the ravages of disease, If we should be subjected to the test. Above all, keep things dry; dampness does the most mischief.

The greenbackers are becoming restive at Butler’s silence. Perhaps Benjamin wants C*eveUnd to put in his letter of acceptance flrst, and then being the last all in the procession he can comment upon the parade in his wonted vigorous way.

CnrcrawATi Is rapidly winning its way to the bad eminence of one of the worst of cities. Judging by reports It is one of the most Godless cities in the world. Its newspapers declare that Its sanitary condition Is simply awful, that it reeks with filth. It has been disgraced by a riot It has to-day two thousand of Its citizens (.saloon keepers) banded together in defiance of a law whiph has been affirmed by the supreme court. Affirmation or no affirmation, court or no court, law or no law, they will not pay one cent of the taxes levied upon them for doing business. From this tax the pay of the policemen Is derived and at the end of this month, unless private charity cornea forward to pay the police, the force will be abandoned. The Cigar and stove manufacturers complain that their workmen have no protection of life ©r limb from the law, being assaulted with Impunity by hostile fellow workmen, and that If thsy can not have protection there they will move to another City. If this isn’t a double quick march to anarchy, signs mean nothing. And it all comes from a disregard of law which began »t flrst in small things that were allowed to go unrebuked, as la beginning in this city Where It is likewise unrebuked.

miesioners. The people generally understand that the interior of the dome and the space about it have been planned for this purpose, but how this shall be occupied, by what artistic or symbol'c devices the state’* participation in the war shall be displayed, are matter for everybody to think about who feels an interest in the state’s chief building. There are eight pedestals which the board think !t 'would be well to fill with symbolic figures; and what these forms should signify, and how they will best adorn the bouse and exhibit the state’s taste, are subjects which the press might be considering, so that when the legislature meets there may be something like a definite idea in the minds |of the members of what the proper ornamentation of the building should be. Of course there is nothing settled by the board yet in regard to this festure of their work, and we have no doubt that they would be glad to get suggestions for It from all who think themselves capable of judging it.

Cistai.ttes from canned gooi», or ‘o speak more exactly from poisonous canned goods, are so frequent of late as to attract attenlim, and a Brooklyn physician riaee to remark concerning them. There Is an immense consumption of canned goods In this country—from the very nature of things a great territory “perfect free trade” as both Mr. Blaine and General Log&n have said, and means of quick transportation. If there is a source of a danger in canned goods, or improperly canned good-*, manifestly there should be some safeguard for the people devised. Causes of harm In canned goods have been found In the fermenting of vegetable s and decomposition of meats, bu*. this Brooklyn physician looks at the can rather than its contents. The amalgam of muriate of zinc which is first applied, he finds, Is liable by the heat of the soldering Iron which js afterward passed around the lid to be run into the can and be absorbed by the contents and there as muriate of tin is added to it, a most powerful corrosive poison Is produced. The state of'Maryland, where so much canning Is done, hat adopted a law prohibiting the use of this amalgam in canning, and a similar safeguard should be undertaken and enforced everywhere. As usual, “they do these things better In Fra'ice.” There the use of any preparation of lead is prohibited, and any cement or amalgam which, though harmless In Itself, may, by chemical action through contact with the contents of the cars, evolve a poisonous principle. Laws based on such a principle should be adopted everywhere in this country and surely by none more urgently desired for adoption than by the men engaged In the cannery business; for popular distrust already somewhat excited in this way, fully aroused, would hurt no one so directly as the trade itself. The domestic legislation of the District of Columbia should be left to ite own people acting in any form they may deem beet. To leave it to congress is to leave it to men who, in the m&lu, know nothing about it and care as little. And, more than that, it is to leave It to men who, if they attend to their proper business, have more than enough to do, and If they neglect that, as they frequently do, they are doubly sure to neglect the other. The cities have the usual legislative powers of cities, but they, and tlje adjacent region unattached to states, have no other legislative power. The consequence is that in all the broad land no section is so loaded with obsolete and mischievous laws as this political center of the most prolific, progressive, and persistent law-making and law-changing people that ever lived. Congress has no lime to learn its condition or move in its improvement, and no other power can. A specimen of this state of things is seen in the recent occurrence of one of the moet infamous wrongs ever inflicted unaer color of law, even In a country that makes law of the whim*of a despot. A young woman of a large inherited estate married a poor but capable man, who largely increased it, and died leaving all her property In his name, even to the residence in which her father lived. His relatives taking the advantage of the shameful condition of the laws have 'appropriated every dollar of the property and left the rightful owner little better than a pauper. Her father’s home and her own was taken from her under a forgotten but unrepe&led statutory abomination which deprived a wife of dower In encumbered property. She has nothing, and can get nothing. His relatives are rich by a process about as honorable, legal though It Is, as "holding up” the widow In an alley on a dark night, and robbing her. Harper’s Weekly wonders what sort of conscience such people have. Such a one as would make an Inter esting study under a microscope of unusual moral magnifying power. The wonder Is that even eo careless a legislative power as congress should not have got hold of this Infamous law and its chances of evil and wiped them out. A legislature of its own would have changed the District long ago, and such a legislature It ought to have. ; The fiction that congress is the legislature of the District Is about as rational as the old common law fiction that “the judge Is the counsel of the accused.” This empty pretense deprived the victims of court enmity and political intrigue of counsel long enough to make it a notorious oppression as well as imposture, and some such result will come of our equally empty fiction of the service of congress as the domestic legislature of the Dlsnict of Columbia.

A MOD MX OTHELLO. One of the “flrst” physicians of Anne Arundel county, Maryland, being a widower, has had for the good fairy of his household a sister-in-law, Miss Helen Owens, twentytwo years old, highly educated and very popular In society, the account says. Tall and lithe of form, of exquisite grace, large black eyes, with daintily arched brows, and a mass of raven-black hair. Her personal attractions were famous throughout the county, and she had many suitors, to all whom, however, she was wholly indifferent. Here Is surely a “fair Desdemona,” and by her indifference a“vlrtuousDesdemona,” was she not . It was her wont to ride afield: a passion Indeed It was with her, this tale tells, for it says, mounted upon a snowwhite steed she was to be seen dashing recklessly across fields and jumping fences at all hours of the day, year in and year out. So then she was not only a "fair” and “virtuous” Desdemona, but a courageous one, as after events proved. Her groom and sole companion In these rides was the colored farm hand, whose name is Jesse Plater, a muscular man, of fine physique, twentyeight years old and nearly white, who, it is said, was known to have the greatest contempt for girls of Ms own race, and was never seen in company with them. This must have been Mghly disgusting to the colored damsels, as well as to the white suitors who languished. The Immediate portion of the society of Anne Arundel connty, of whatever grade or color, could not have been ecstatically happy under such a condition. Bat how was their unhappineM changed to horror when it was known that this fair Desdemona and her “nearly white’* Othello, had, after the example of the fair Venetian of old and her datky Othello,

eloped! What the colored damsels whom this medexm Othello had always held In contempt and never associated with did, we are not told. But we are told how the family of Desdemona took it—just as did the family of Desdemona of old. Thus, “the girl!* friends and family claim that she is r rtalnly demented, and refer to the fact that she now has an aunt in an Insane asylum.” Now hear what Senator Brabantio said: * * I’ll refer me to all things of sense. If abe in chains ol magic were not bound, Wnether a maid so tender, fair and happy. So opposite to marriage that she shann’4 The wealthy curled darlings of our aatfl •% Would ever have, to incur a genera, mock, Ron from her guardage to the sooty bosom Of such as thou, to fear, not to delight See the parallel: Brabantio called it “magic.” In these enlightened days this Detdemona’s family talk of the freaks of insanity, and refer to the aunt In the Insane asylum. Be it one or another, this Desiemona, as she of old, “shunned the wealthy curled darlings” of Anne Arundel county and ran to the sooty bosom of her Othello. We all know what old Brabantio did he had Othello brought to trial, to answer for the crime of having gained the love of his Desdemona. What the people of Anne Arundel county will do* doth not yet appear.” One account says “the feeling against the negro Is intetse and the young men in the neighborhood |that i», “the wtalthy^curled darlings’’ whom Desdemona shunn’d, j are talking ominously of lynching.” And another account says: “The relatives and friends of Miss Owens swear that they will take the law In their own hands as soon as they get hold of the negro." Old Brabantio took the law into his own hands, too. But the law of Venice was not of that wild freedom wMch would allow a party of Brabantlo’s friends to hang that black Othello from the first bridge they could reach spanning the waterways of that town. In this, Anne Arundel county has left barbarous Venice far beMnd. There is a law In Maryland making such marriages as this illegal, but the modern, Othello will not get the benefit of the law; “the curled darlings” will "take the law into their own hands,” the account says. Brabantio and Desdemona’s rejected suitors could not do this, so Othello was summoned before the duke and senators in the council chamber. We all remember Othello’s plea absut the adventurous story of his life, and his statement— * * This to hear Wculd Desdemona seriously inciino. * * My story being done, She gave me for my pains a world of sighs; She swore’t was strange, ’twas passing s-.range, ’T was pitifnl, ’t was wondrous pitiful; She wished she had not heard it, yet she wished That heaven had made her such a man; she thanked me. And bade me If X bad a friend that loved her, I should teach him how to tell my story, And that would woo her. Who can tell but In those long rides across the fields at all hours of the day year In and year out this modem Desdemona may not have been Inclined to hear “the story of his life” from her dusky Othello and sole companion ? Who may know what that story wat V May he not have had to tell: t »f being taken by the Insolent foe And s*hd to slavery, of his redemption thence And portatce in his travel’s history; Wherein of antres vast a ad deserts idle. Rough quarries, rooks and hllla whose heads touch heaven It was his hint to speak —? The antres and deserts, the rocks and heaven kissing hills of course being the obstacles that lay in his path In the social world. May ho not have spoken thus and She loved him for the dangers he had passed And he loved her that she did pity them* It is a pretty occupation to fit In an incident of this hard wo k-a day world t) the golden pages of Shakespeare and dream of a likeness. But romance Is only beautiful in fiction. In real life it is usually one of the most demoralizing, destmetive and disreputable of all its forces. So did this modern Othello and Desdemona find it. On reaching the railway depot of the capital of their country, Washington, (imagine a noisy, vulgar railway fig uringin a romance:) they were arrested. Here for the first time, it Is said, Desdemona realized her condition, and she broke down completely. Othello said: “De lady is my wife, and no one has a right to stop me.” Stop him they did, however, and “the wealthy curled darlings” of Anne Arundel county are waiting to stop him altogether by stopping his wind. And so, though they may break the law, they will get even with a suitor who prevailed where they wooed in yain. But let us hope that this modem Othello may have the protection of the law, despite “the wealthy curled darlings” of Anne Arundel county, or else may get clean off where they can not lay hands upon him. And as for "the fair Desdemona,” may the last chapter record how, repentant, she was at last consoled, and again rode the white horse as of yore, and finally married a man as white as the horse.

CURRENTCOMMHNT. They have discovered a magnetic man in Maine, who performs wonders more startling than does Lulu Hurst: and it isn’t Mr. Blaine, either, but John Downs, of Auburn, Maine. Some sort of rapid transit along Broadway, New York, is to be established. More than one-half the property holders below Fourteenth street have signified their willingness. The only question now is which of the competing companies anxious to build the road shall be permitted to do so. “The great thing that you need in London,” raid Mr. Moody to a reporter the other dry, "Is homes. Homes: there, that Is your great lack. The great mass of your population is homeless.” That is the argument Henry George is pressing on the Duke of Argyle in the recent debate the two had In the Nineteenth Century. With four presidential candidates In the field, it would appear that every one would have a chance to deposit his vote and not be compelled to withhold It. The New York Tribune has Invented the best came yet for the Anglomaniac. I* calls him "John Bull’s American Calf.” Keepers of summer hotels report a great decrease In the champagne consumption this season. And there won’t be so many strawberries eaten next winter, a la Ferd Ward. A French chemist distils brandy from watermelon, and a Swede mannsactures alcohol from reindeer moss. As Shakespeare says. Uere’s “good in everything ’’—[Boston Transcript. You won’t get the prohibitionists to endorse either you or Shakespeare In that. And now Brooklyn following other eastern cities is talking of having free concerts Sunday afternoons in Prospect park. New York’s city well water is all bad, an analysis o! water from an artisan well 1,007 feet deep showing that it was contaminated with sewage. If the democrats want a singing campaign they teed not despair. The London, ont., Advertiser comes to their aid with this. The logic Is a little ’lame, but the rhyme is all right: Throughout the land, On every band, Tne farmers now up-end ricks. The prospect’s good For plenty food. With Cleveland and with Hendricks. New York’s white elephant seems to be the rew Metropolitian Ope a house. Gye has given up his contract for managing it next season. "Brewster, attorney general-’ says the members of the cabinet are not lukewarm for Blaine out on the contrary quite red hot. Mrs. Robert G. Ingersol! is said to bear a striking resemblance to the portraits of Martha W ashlngton, and she materially assists the likeness fcy arranging her neckwear and dressing her hah- In the style portrayed in the picture. Nobody has discovered any resemblance between “Bob” and the father of his country. Philadelphia policemen are not to be allowed hereafter to marclt atthe head of parades. This Is a good thisg. The practice Is Jemo-

gogfcaL The policemen had better be attending to their duties, the while. One of the best campaign songs we haws seen Is published by R. A. Sail field, 12 Bible House, New York City. It happens to be a republican song, but we speak solely to the happy metre of the verse. Though “doggerel” it has tbe quality of some of Moore’a classic songs, of "singing themselves.” It is called “Our Plumed Knight Leads the Wsy,” and the irst verse runs: Our Flamed Knight leads the way, my boys: We’il raUy once again. And sweep tbe land from sea to sea With brave and peerless Blaine. Tbe tidal wave is rushing on With broad and boundless sway. A nation speaks with mighty voice— Oar Plumed Knight leads the way. The truth is that prohibition does raise an issue on which democracy is apt to take one side and republicanism another. The natural leaning of democracy Is toward persona! liberty and the absence of government Interference, while the paternal and despotic tendencies of the republican party naturally attract toward that party all those who believe in ths omnipotence of government.— [St. Louis Poet-Dispatch. Candor compels ns to declare that Brother Blaine’s letter of acceptance Is one of the cleverest vote-getting machines we ever examined. As a specimen oUntellectual legerdemain, it is well e all tied to take the cake. Now let us see whether In the letter o£ acceptance he Is going to write Brother Cleveland can beat Biaine in grip and candor as much as he beats him in ficaudal honesty.— [New York Sun. This comparison Let ween slave-holding and liquor-drinking and liquor selling is entirely misleading and defective. Slavery deprived its subjects of civil and personal liberty, and so became a great political and national crime. Intemperance deprives its victims of good health and good morals, and so becomes a great personal and social sin. —[Chicago Journal. There has been growing for some years, in certaia educational as in certain social quarters, a diseased reverence for everytnlng F.nglish. Just as one may find poor "dudes” In society, who think it fine to ape English dress and English manners, so the worshipers of England are found in literary and educational circles.—[New York Tribune.

The Northern Pacific Man is Not Exactly Beggared. fNew York Commercial Advertiserd Said an intimate friend of Mr. Henry Yillard, this morning: “Mr. Villard has not passed out of the world; be is only lying on his oars. With his wife and children—three of whom are boys—he is searching for some oulet retreat in Germany, where he may stay with his family and secure rest for himself and education for his children. His recent visit to London was marked by cordial greetings from his English friends, of whom he has many, and a dinner given In Ms honor by the guests of the Northern Pacific railway excursion he was presented with a handsome silver flagon. In Berlin, too, his friends have come to the fore bravely and given him a greeting such as a c!devant mll 1 - ionalre seldom receives. Since the crash of last year Mr. Villard has ceased to have any connection with the Northern Pacific and other railways of the so called Villard system, with the exception of the Oregon & California railway, of which he is still president. He has been busy enough endeavoring to evolve order out of the chaos of his own affairs. As to how much he has saved of the many millions he once had it Is hard to say. The country seat at Dohb’s Ferry, which may be worth 1500,000, belongs to Mrs. Villard, into whose hands it passed some years before Mr. Vlllard’s connection with the Northern Pacific. This, of course, remains in the hands of his family. What other property be has it is hard to say. It Is a mistake to ascribe, as is often done, Mr. VI!lard’s artonishingly rapid rise to his stock opt rations. He was never known to manipulate the market to serve hts personal en is, whatever he may have done on behalf ol the great corporations which he has represented. His wealth simply grew from the property which he created. His success as the receiver of the Kansas Pad3c, and later of Oregon and California railways, is typi :al of Ms general work. He made both railways solid, and they became paying cancel ns. Thus the confidence p’aced in him by the German stockholders was justified. But to go still further back. Mr. Villard made much money In the United States bonds In the early days of the war. He bought them when they were selling at thirty cents, and held them till they rose to par. His father left Mm considerable patri-mony-some thousands of dollars—and it will thus be seen that his command oyer capital was of slower growth than is generally imagined. His friends say that he is satisfied. His undertaking of the Northern Pacific has been carried through, and for the present he has no further ambition than to rest after Ms gigantic labors. It is not likely that he will allow his mind to lie fallow long. Notes from the Capital. President Arthur left Washington to day on the United States steamer Dispatch, for New York. He Is accompanied by John Davi*, assistant secretary of state. Miss Nellie Arthur, and Private Secretary Phillips. Unon the basis of reports from 159 offices which produce nearly one-half the postal revenue the receipts from all postotfices during the last quarter will aggregate about 811,000,000, and the receipts lor the year about $2,000,000 less than the previous fical year. The president has appointed John E. Bryant United States marshal for the district of Georgia, vice General Lonzptreet; John G. Brady, of Alaska, George IL Ihrihe, of Pensylvanla, and Chester Xeber, of California, commissioners for the district of Alaska, to reside respectively at Sitka, Wrangel, and Ounalaska. Pay Director J. H. Watmough, formerly paymaater general of the navy, will be placed on the retired list on the 30th inst. No action will be taken by the president in the matter of the commissionership of the new bureau of labor statistics until his re turn to Washington, about the middle of August. They Painted the Atmosphere Blue, The telegraph poles alongside the Boston grounds have afforded very convenient places from the tops of which ventursome fellows haye obtained good views of games in progrefs there. Last Saturday three young men climbed to the top of one of the polef, and were enjoying the contest going on between the Bostons and New Yorks, when, to their consternation, along came some one and painted the pole black as far up from the ground as could be reached. The spectators shouted and yelled at the trick, and the condition of the clothing ef the parties when they reached the ground, and the feelings of the wearers thereof can be better imagined than described. The Hotel Clerk’* Rival. [ A Louisville Man ] I was riding along Broadway, New York, recently, during a jam. I sang out to the driver of an omnibus, ‘Why don’t you move on? What do you block the way for?” He turned and said not a word, but simply looked. I shall never forget thit look. It was a cross between complete astonishment and a stroke of paralysis. He looked and looked. After a little he drove on, but every now atd then he would turn around and give me another look. This lasted until he was out of eight. I shall never make another suggestion to the driver of a New York omnibus. Chicago’* “Old Friends.” [Philadelphia Call.)

KKWTOBK LRIHL Jews and Gentile* nt Long BranchHard Mimas Mads Apparent — Ned Stokes—At n Camp Hsstmc—Brewster’* Wonderful Costume — Spiritual fCerrMseudfluce of The iBdttimpoBs Newt.] New Yobs, July 21—No more striking spectacle of what I may describe as mingled separation can anywhere be found than that whkh la now presented In the hotels at Lone Branch, where twenty thousand Illassorted New Yorkers are spending their July. Jews and Christians are in daily bMine*? intercourse In town during the day, and may even be sociable in the first part of the hour and s half ride to the Jersey watering place: but as they approach their domesticity they gradually go apart, so that on arrival at tbe Branch they are quite distant. All these are men, of course. Feminine Judaism and Christianity are at all times and in all places totally oblivious of each other. I suppose that the women and girls in the hotel where I have been lodging are about evenly divided as to religion. The one sort affects an unconsciousness of the other that is comical. They "do not speak as they pass by." If their material were impalpable they would walk right through one another like so many unobstructed Pepper ghosts. They saunter on the same veranda, eat in the same dining room, dance in the same parlor, drive in the same avenue, bathe in the same surf, but with no exchange of words, and only looks that are ignoring and covert. Are the Jews downtrodden? Scarcely. The best dressed woman there is the Jewish Mrs. Fraley, of 8t. Lonis. This little dialogue was reported accurately on my shirt cuff at the time it was spoken by two youths, Jewesses: “O, Rebecca, what a pretty girl that Is across the parlor?” indicating a maiden with light hair, blond complexion and turn-up nose. "Bless me! do you know her?” “Yes,” as an Interchange of nods and smiles was effected. "That’s Leah Isaacs, of Brooklyn.” "One of our people: ”

"Yes.”

"Deary me’ How unfortunate that she looks like a Christian.” “Yes, poor thing. She’s often mistaken

for one.”

Well, It Is with honest impartiallity, and without going deeper than the surface indications, that I declare a tie between the Rachels and the Christians of Long Branch. Their attractiveness Is very equally divided. Nor do I see that one has better or worse manners than the other. They are alike offenders In the matter of that bareness which characterizes this summer’s toilets. In former years the lowness of corsage was confined, as in the city, to evening occasions; but now the line of nudity is not varied be tween gas light and daylight It is for the helghGning of cl arms, and not in fear of them, that arms and bosoms are, in their daytime exposure, covered by a slight film of lace. It is true that some of the immodesty is more apparent than real, owing to such devices as very light pink silk extending above dark velvet and under the gossa-

mer stuff.

The dullness of trade has appreciably af-

fected the extravagance at Long Branch. Many of the finest villas are empty, and stories are told of concealed economies in those that are tenanted. Still, the outward shows of wealth are not much below those of foimer years. WMle the women are not, as I am told by an expert, as expensively dressed on the whole, they are quite a 3 resplendact to undiscrlminatlng eyes. But

the men talk poverty unreservedly. 4t Aro rrm huav nnwartSlid ODG N6W

the reply,

“Are you busy nowadays?’

Yoiker to another.

“Never buster In my life,” was “nor ever making less money.”

What he said was the truth as to a great sbare of the business in the metropolis this July. Not much is being done In tne way of purchase and sale, but it requires an inordinate amount of close attention. Everybody ia try ing to keep Tiis mercantile and flu at dal sails close hauled, so as not to be wrecked by the squalls that are rising in unexpected quarters every few days. Nevertheless, we have filled our nearest and e .sily summer resort pretty nearly a* numerous y atd gaily as ever. A study of that remark> - ble place during the paet week convinces n e that even outright bankruptcy does not always Imply a visible retrenchment In family expenses. One man whose failure In business had been so irregular that, just previous to his coming here, he had spent severs! Weeks In jail, Is now wearing as many and big uiamonas as in previous years. His case presents no difficulties of explanation, perhaps; but there are bankrupts with presumable consciences who are living in villas and weartrg clothes which disclose no strin-

gt ncy of money.

Another class of money-spenders not affected by dull business are those whose incomes are derived from discountenanced pursuits. For example, ths profits of Ned Stokes's picture gallery are sufficient to pay for an exceedingly substantial expense at the Branch. One of the best of the equipages that roll along Ocean avende carries a handsome dowager and her daughter. They are always quietly but rlcMy attired. Their apartments are the best In a fashionable hotel. Their conduct I* ever refined and decorous. It Is evident tnat they are not new to luxury. Who are they? The mother and sister of that Stokes who killed Jim Fisk. The elder Stokes was an honored and prosperous merchant. The cost of Ned’s first trial, which resulted in a sentence to death was sufficient to cripple the family’s resources. A new trial was secured, and, to save the son’s neck, no expense was avoided. The son was sent to state prison for five years, and before the expiration of the term the father died, broken in heart and purse. While in dmance Ned planned the gorgeous bar room, even to the designing of the decorations, and especially the audacious pictorial features. He lost no time, when free, in getting the pi 'Ce open. The profits were heavy from the outset. All of which is, of course, to his discredit. But on the other side of his moral account may be placed the fact that to his mother went all the money that was necef s iry to make her more physically comfortable than she had ever been before. His sister was to share in his bounty If she wi.-hed to. Her husband gave to her the choice between himself and Ned, for he would not let her remain a wife to him snd at the same time a sister to a rumseller. 8be went with her mother. She

parted from her husband.

I have already Intimated that religion does not receive stringent attention from tne gathered multitude of pleasure-seekers at the seashore. There are half a d.zen churches along as many miles of beach, but they are all well nigh as empty on Sundays as on week days, except in one or two fasnionable instances. Tne average of taste seems to require sometMng more sensxtional than ordinary worship. This demand is met by excursions to a Spiritualistic camp-meet-ing at Neshamlny Falls, thirty miles away. I went with a party and when we got to the grove, a PMIadelphian, Mrs. Lilly, was dlscours n * from the platformbhe was telling her heart rs, in a manner not far different from orthodoxy, that the souls of the departed were there present with the bodies of the living, what she said was not novel enough to keep me from my usual drowsiness during preaching. Near to me sat the man who signs himself “Brewster, AttorneyGeneral,” and thereby gets condemnation from those who see in Ms form of signature an un-American imitation of British usage. Perhaps it is not polite to allude to the face of Mr. Brewster, which is terribly disfigured by burns received in childhood; but his grotesque antiquity of costume Is certainly under his control, and therefore a proper subject for description. He wore this day a suit of yellow duck, baggy as totrowsers and Prince Albert as to coat. His shirt collar reached to his jaws, and wound round and round with a black cravat, as though his neck had been broken and was kept in place by means of a bandage and splints. To the knuckle joints of his hands hung frills of lace. Hts hat had been made to order, after original drawings, for It comported with no civilized fashion of the present day anywhere within the bounds of civilization; or else It was a Brewster family heirloom. The odd figure of Brewster was slowly and fitfully merged from my waking sight into my cat nap dreams; and then a woman strod down the aisle to him, stretched forth her hand as Charlotte Cushman used to la Meg Merrilles,

and wlerdly said:

“I see Abraham Lincoln sitting by your side. He seems to desire to communicate with you. But I can’t make out just what it

Is that he want* to say.”

I started up with the feeling that I had dreamed rldlculout-ly; but there stood Mrs. Lillie in front of Brewster, wMle the whole congregation was looking and listening. The attorney general, however, was taking very coolly the assurance that the ghost of Lincoln was at hand; and the lecturer passed on to describe other spirits when she pro-

fessed to discern.

That evening I made & round of tho«; tents in which eerrlces were being held. Most of these spiritualistic exercises were not different from what is familiar in alleged mediumsMp. Several seances fqr th# materialization of splrtte were In progress, bat in only one instance was there a novelty. Here a tent wu penetrable only on payment of half a dollar. Fifty to sixty people sat in front of a curtained stage, from behind the draper! *a of which emerged what th* explainer told us were the re embodied spirlta of dead men and women. Nobody could dispute that aseertlon effectually, the light was so specially dhu snd knowledge

concern inf spooks so generally uncertain. At length the last feeble spark of lamp{nomination expired, and we were in complete; darkness. Instantly there was a lurid flarh from behind the curtains, and projected therefrom came toward us a form in flowing robes and floating gait. This apparition lasted only a few seconds, disappearing with the final glimmer of light. The same tMng was repeated many times. I am not writing as a doubter or critic. You may supply your own theory as to how the thing was done by mortal contrivance, or believe that it was supernatural. GambJngt s once mere the chief masculine excitement at Long Branch. Jersey justice seems to have concluded that gamblers are not wicked. The club houses are pretentious In size, three in number, and conspicuous in situation, being in every Instance adjacent to a great boteL They are grander in furniture than before, their inscribed flags fly advertlstngly from the roofs, and they give forth light like lanterns aU night long. There is no effort at seclusion. Indeed, I imagine that, with the presence of thousands of Wall street men among the population, any movement to suppress gaming would be met by hard resistance on the part of o’fcirs than the professional gam ester*. Roulette is tbe game most commonly played, and two or three wheels are uraally kept revolving from about nice o’clock until daylight In each hall. It Is said that official hands are withheld from interference at an annual cost of thirty thousand dollars, paid cut of a fund raised by the proprietors of the houses. The play Is startlingly heavy, and If the season ends without a suicide by & ruined fool I shall have made a false prophesy. But the women continue to resist temptation. There Is a restaurant In the largest of these establishments, where the gentler sex may, but don’t go for refreshments, and in the front hallway, where she is In plain sight from the street, sits a female cashier. It Is clear that she Is not a lure for men, because she is a matron of severe aspect, and totally unlike those fascinating creatures who are the adjuncts of gambling dens on the stage. No. she Is Intended to Impress women with the respectability of the concern. But she is a failure^ Kink. FIDDLES MADE VALCAIILE. R< menyl Astonished at a Flfty-Cent Instrument with a Patent Attachment, [New Yorlc Sun.] A few evenings since John P. Andrews, of Hackensack, invited a small party of gentlemen, including several amateur violinists, to meet Remenyi, when an Incident occurred that created a sensation and greatly astonished tha Hungarian virtuoso. This was the exhibition by W. H. Brady of a common fiddle, originally costing fifty cents, but which, by reason of a patent attachment called a second sounding board, developed qualities of tone, volume, and clear-ringing, bell-like sweetness, which were declared by Remenyi to be superior to those of the high-priced violins presented by the amateur for the artist’s inspection. Remenyi very reluctantly consented to test the fifty-cent Instrument, which be called a musical monstrosity, not even a fiddle. It was only a wooden box with strincs on it, but he was so charmed with it that he said be would be willing to play the unsightly fiddle In a public concert. "Through your Invention,” said Remenyi in a testlmoniaV.penned in presence of the company, “you will obliterate all fiddles.” Mr. Brady, the Inventor and patentee ol this contrivance, said to a reporter: “In 1880 I had a conversation with Ole Bull, In wMch we expressed our mutual dissatisfaction with the tone of the patent violins with the Moilenhauer improvement. In order to Illustrate what he could not explain he took up his wonderful Gasp&rd D( Salo and produced the pure silver bell tone that was wanted, but not found In ordinary and in many so-called extraordinary violins. Taking my one from the idea that flaaheJ on my mind that Instant, I prosecuted a series of experiments in brass, soft and hard, and after great labor attained s perfection that will revolutionize violin music. My Invention consists In mounting upon the Inner face of the back of the Instrument a thin, plain metal plate raised slightly above the hack on supports, wMch connect it only with the back. The plate Is made about the shape of the back of tbe Instrument, but somewhat less in size, so as to leave a clear space around the edge. “The sound post passes through an opening In the plate, which it does not touch. Various devices have been employed and large sums of money expended to accomplish the object now attained. Extra sets of strings and turning forks have been arrrnged inside of violins. Glassdlapbragms or plat is mounted on the end blocks have been proposed, as well as colled wire bells secured to tbe back and belly; also wooden diaphrams arranged to divide the hollow of the Instrument In two parts. But all these have failed to give the sweet trill, resonant, clear, and prolonged vibratory tones which are the charm of the violin.” The Brigand Must go. [Mexican letter.) The brigands are waking up to the fact that their occupation Is gone. Rapid travel is bringing them more surely into the clutches of the law. A gang of wreckers were pursued and shot less than a month ago In the state of Durango. The leader of the band was well known to the Mexican public by sight and through a record of daring deeds and bloody crimes. Young and boyish In appearance, handsome, dashing, and so brave and beloved by the entire clan of eighteen brigands that the Identity of this chief was never betrayed or suspected. The other day the rurales tracked them down, sent eight bullets through the captain’s heart, and destroyed the whole band, not leaving one to tell the story. They then learned that the handsome bandit boy was only a bit of successful masquerading, for when the riddled sombrero was removed and the fcullet-bumt blanket thrown aside a shapely form was revealed, and the astonished soldiers discovered that the leader of their foes had been a woman. Telegraph Toll* and Combination The Baltimore & OMo Telegraph Company have reduced tolls for messages between 8t. Louis and Washington, Baltimore, Philadelphia, and New York, to twenty-five cent?, and night messages to fifteen cents for fifteen words, to go into effect on Monday, making the same rate to St. Louis as to Chicago. The Canadian Pacific railway’s general manager, Van Horne, expresses his intention of joining the new telegraph combination in the United States, for the purpose of extending Its operations throughout Canada, when the company’s lines, now far advanced, are finished, wMch it is expected will be very soon. . The Decline of an Historic Mount. [Jerusalem latter la Chicago Inter Ocean. 1 I found myself facing the Mount of Olives with is triple undulations so gentle as to render the term “mount” a misnomer, with Scopus as its northen spur, and the Mount of Offense, barely visible, as its southern spur.- Poor, ragged, hungry-looklng Olivtl. its only wealth to day Is the legacy of hallowed asscelation which no other mountain on earth can equal, even Sinai included. It is almost denuded of olive trees to-day, and its top is crowded with filthy huts, tawdry mosques and villainous smells. A Learned and Confident Clerk. [ Merchant Traveler.] “The price of that,” said a clerk picking up a remnant of silk “is quite decollete.” “What?” said the startled customer. “The price Is quite decollete, I said.” “Young man, do you know what decollete means?” “Yes, madam, I do.” “Well, I think you are mistaken.” “Ob, no, I am not.” “What uoes It mean?” “It means cut low; at d that’s what’s the mttter with price on this plcece of goods.
