Tho little village of Austin, Illinois,
was nearly destroyed by fire on the
14th.
The registration of voters closed in
Atlanta on the 14th. Next comes the
voting.
Floquet has been elected President
of the French chamber of Deputies,
by a majority of 367.
Dr. Metzzer of Amsterdam, has been
invited to Rome for consultation on
the health of his Holiness.
Three Italian murderers who killed
a man, packed his body in a trunk,
and shipped it to Pittsburg, were
hanged at Chicago on the 14th.
Light frosts are seen now every
morning. The season has been re
markable. The delays In the frosts
have added considerably to the cotton
crop.
Jackson, Riel’s Lieutenant, escaped
from prison and wrote a letter to his
sister asking her to write to Sir John
McDonald begging him to shoot him,
Jackson, aud spare Riel. His escape
was not disclosed until the 16th.
The Pope’s decision recognizes
Spain's sovereignty over the Caroline
islands, and advises Germany to ac
cept the commercial concession con
tained in the Spanish note of Septem
ber 10. The decision was presented to
Germany and Spain on the 16th.
The relief fund for the sufferers by
the great fire at Galveston, has reach
ed nearly $70,000. It will probably be
greatly increased. It comes from’ma
ny sections of the country. The peo
ple of Texas are responding with
great liberality.
Parnell’s Opinion.—Parnell said
in his speech at Liverpool that Glad
stone’s statement, though vague and
unsatisfactory, was the most impor
tant on the Irish question ever deliv
ered by any English minister.
Germany had added to the expen
ditures for the German army and
navy an increase of forty millions of
marks. There is much significance
iu this, she evidently expects a ser
ious state of affairs and makes prep
aration for it. The Emjieror of Rus
sia is a wily potentate. He sits un-
on his throne and adds to his safety
by keeping the minds of hi3 people
fixed upon some startling project of
war or enlargement of his empire, per
haps the greatest in extent of all the
governments of the world.
A young girl 14 years old, daughter
of Cliarles D. Powell, of Prince Anne
county, Ya., who not coming as usual
from school on the 15th, was found
murdered m a thicket- not far from
the road, with her throat cut and her
head nearly severed from her body.
A coal black negro, named Cherry,
who had a difficult y with one of Potv-
el’s sons, is believed to be the murder
er, and has been caught. He is 18
years of age. If proved to be guilty
the law will not be appealed to, to
aveDge the villainous crime.
How are these atrocities to be
checked? We publish such crimes,
committed almost entirely by negroes,
to help spread the Intelligence among
them that vengeance, if possible, al
most as swift as lightning will over
take them.
Both sides have been so confident
of success in Atlanta on the liquor
question that persons inside of that
city would be fearful to risk a dollar
on the result. It is said that 7,187
names have been registered, going
considerably beyond any previous
record for an election in that fity. As
the longest poll knocks down the per
simmon, so it will be at this election.
Substitute heaviest parse for the
longest poll on election day, and the
victory will be decided by it, especial
ly as from all accounts the forces are
so nearly balanced. Hundreds who
have already given pledges on mo
mentary considerations, will not re
gard them against still heavier similar
considerations on the day. Certain
persons will only get double pay that’s-
all.
Bismarck's edict expelling the Poles
from Prussia is causing great distress.
The time limited for removal is so
short that their property sold^ short
notice has not brought more Win one
quarter of its value. To make the
matter worse the Czar will not permit
them to return within his dominions
unless they can show they were born
there. Many were born in Prussia
and cannot even speak the Polish or
Russian language. There are many
of them in a miserable condition en
camped on the frontiers. The Cra
cow relief committee denounce the ex
pulsion as inhuman and unlawful;
! they say the German constitution, of
1871, lodged with the Bundesrath
alone and not with the crown, the
right to banish aliens from the em
pire. The cruelty inflicted upon
tens of thousands of unoffending
Poles under the mere edict of ex
pulsion is producing in Germany a
wide-spread feeling of bitterness
against Bismarck.
Gladstone’s speeches are giving sat
isfaction to the churchmen in Eng
land. and to the Scotchmen by show
ing them that the question is a sepa
rate one for them and within their
own controL Appearances are decid
edly favorable to the Liberals. Many
who were frightened on this question
are coming back to the Liberals and
they have no doubts of Gladstone’s
integrity of purpose. The Parnellites
are manifesting a disposition to come
to terms with the “Grand Old Man f”
Our readers will remember how, on
several occasions within the last few
months, we said that the Irish could
look with more safety to Gladstone
than any other statesman in the Brit
ish Empire. Parnell, it is stated, has
more confidence in Gladstone than in
Saulsbury. What Gladstone says
they can rely upon and they know
that he can guarantee the fulfillment
of his pledges by his party, while the
Tory leaders cannot offer the same
pledges for their followers. There can
be but little, if anv, doubt that Par
nell’s symjjathies are with Gladstone.

Disappointments and Misfortunes.
Who has not been at some time and
in some degree, subjected to sore trials
and rugged drawbacks iu the career
of life. It has been the lot of almost
every human being at some period, or
in some way, to experience adversity,
and those are fortunate who. in their
troubles, find the lights of old friend
ships still warm and bright in misfort
unes as they were in the days of pro
pitious fortune. Men anil women
shonkl so livews to feel the conscious
ness of unyielding integrity. He who
is-thns fortified is covered by an im-
penetrableand protecting shield. Ma
ny minds are so gently and delicately
constituted that they yield too readily
to the wintry blasts’ of disappoint
ments and the blight of faded expec
tations. While this may show that
they have hearts of keen sensibilities
and refined emotions, it proves, also
that physically and mentally they are
not constituted to buffet the angry
waves of misfortune, or have cultiva
ted and strung to an undue extent,
those delicate chords of soul which
yield melody to the breath of happi
ness and wail to that of misfortune
and sorrow.
While it is pleasing to see iu any one
the emblems of sensibility in difficulty
and danger, it is admirable to show a
true heart, a sustaining enetgv and
unconquerable spirit. He who dis
plays energy in adversity is far more
certain of receiving the substantial
sympathy anil encouragement of the
world than-he who sinks under the
sweep of thiMtempest. The man who
defies the rage of the storm—who
meets it with an unblinking and
steadfast eye, is apt to excite admira
tion and sympathy, and mav triumph
over apparently inseperable difficul
ties and dangers. The proud spirit of
man should rise in dignity and un
broken strength though adversity and
poverty and neglect may surrounil it—
though even human love itself should
falter in its idolatry. It should take
courage, look up, and rely upon in
tegrity and energy, for they are link
ed with the most valuable gifts of
fortune. In no other way can man
hope to retrieve disaster, when antici
pated success and triumphs have van
ished like the dreams of a summer
night. An elegant writer has said:
‘No man need feel ashamed of sorrow.’
Sophocles makes even Hercules sink
beneath impressions of vicissitude.
The man of virtue becomes sacred by
misfortune, and every honorable mind
feels disposed to address him as the
courtiers of Canbul addressed the per
son of their sovereign: “May your
sorrow he turned upon me. The
same writer eloquently said, “When
we look around us and behold the
pride, the envy and malice that op
press the mass of mankind ; when we
consider how many virtues society
nips in the hud, aud with what indus
try it punishes those virtues it isoblig-
ed in decency to command ; when we
see with what eagerness the feelings
are insulted and the mind starved,
and observe the seeming delight with
which some men survey the wretched
ness of their fellow creatures, there
is, assuredly, sufficient justification
for the profundest melancholy.”
The Departure of Columbus.
Columbus set sail from Palos* on
Friday, August 3rd, 1492. On the 7th
of September they lost sight of land
with sighs and tears, many fearing
never to see it again. Some days af-
ter.that the crew began to murrnuc
against the bold Italian, his prayers
and promises. To raise their spirits
he cried land ! land ! But it proved
to be clouds. The crew gave him
three days more averring they w-onld
return if land was not found in that
time. Before the expiration of the
three days he perceived by the sunset
that land was near, and in the night
light was seen and they went on the
land the next day. Columbus named
it St. Salvador. It was called by the
natives Guanahaue, one of the Islands
Lucayos, 950 degrees from the Cana
ries.
THE FIRST DISCOVERY OF COLUMBUS.
“The howling winds forbid us to trust
the fatal main,
Oh turn our wandering vessel to har
bour once again.
Why to this bold Italian our lives, our
hopes confide?
No golden land awaits ns beyond the
shoreless tide !
How long shall he deceive us with
boasting vain and loud,
And when we gaze for land, he can
show ns but a cloud.”
The gallant leader heard, but he lis
tened undismay’d.
Though he saw their furious glances
and their daggers half display'd.
No fear was in his soul, hut liis "heart
was wrung with woe;
Shall he yield before their murmurs,
and his glorious meed forego?
Had he braved the ocean's terrors in
tempest and In night?
And shall he furl his sails with the
promised goal in sight?
For he look’d towards the horizon and
mark’d the setting sun,
And by its ruddy light he knew that
all his toils were done.
’Twas in the deepest midnight, as they
cut the yielding wave,
When not a star was shining to guide
them or to save,
As in awful hopeless silence their on
ward course they steer.
Far in the murky distance—lo! glim
mering lights appear;
In breathless joy and wonder they
watch the opening sky
And with the morning rises their rapt
urous certainty.
Through the silvery vapour gleaming
extends the welcome strand.
And trees and rocks and mountains
before their view expand,
They breast the foaming surges, and
shouting leap ashore,
While every echo answers—God and
Saint Salvador!

Washington Letter,
From Our Regular Correspondent.
Washington, Nov. lfi, 1885.
The week has been one of close con
finement to the President, who is at
work on his first message to Congress.
He has had frequent consultations
with different members of his Cabinet,
but has seen few other people than
those having the most urgent business
with him.
The present week will be one of
equal seclusion, as he expects by the
dose of it to complete this document,
and have it ready for the printer.
The meseage'is pretty well under way,
and parts of it are now being copied
on the typewriter. It is said he has
touched upon many points with his
characteristic vigor. A good deal of
space has been devoted to commercial
relations and the steamship controver
sy, and it is believed the President will
sustain the Postmaster General. The
Navy will also be given due considera
tion.* Congress will be urged to appro
priate largely for new vessels.
A Democratic Congressman who has
just returned to Washington was
asked what would be the tendency of
legislation this session. He replied:
Kfecanaot tell until we see what the
President will ask us to do in his mes
sage. Still he thought there were
sever4ftl matters that were certain to
come before Congress for action.
“The army and Navy” continued he
“both require a good deal of legisla
tion.'’ There is a sentiment among Dem
ocrats that this Administration must
re-create the Naval Service, and that it
must be restored to the position it oc
cupied in the world's fleet before the
war..
It is easy to note upon the faces of
Republican Congressmen as they
gather in Washington an expression
of discouragement. They feel that
the party in power will stay. The
Republican party has had taken away
from it the power of its Federal offi-
' ~ eats
frouToffioeTioItlers. ’’TBe Democratic
party came very near oeftting it with
all of this artificial strength, and the
recent elections have proved that the
Democratic party can stand alone,
and needs no Federal patronage to
back it. You hear no more now
about war in the Senate, anil nothing
about Democratic revolt even from
Republican Congressmen.
The President's order excluding of
fice-seekers and public men from the
White House except when they have
public business with him will pioba-
blv be revoked at the end of the
month. It was made to give Mr.
Cleveland time to prepare his mes
sage, and he has said that he feels no
inclination to restrict public men in
their visits to him or to require them
to specify their business in advance.
A few days ago some prominent Con
gressmen were protesting against the
order in the office of Private Secreta
ry Lamont. Presently they were ad
mitted to see the President, and find
ing him alone once was such an unex
pected convenience, that they went
away thinking well of the late order.
The event at the White House on
Saturday was the arrival of its long
absent hostess. Miss Cleveland. She
has been at her home in (Ineida coun
ty, New York, and returns to resume
her social duties here.
The White House was thoroughly
overhauled and cleaned during her ab
sence, and now it is in order again for
the coming season. Carpets, pictures,
and bric-a-brac were all taken out aud
subjected to the processes familiar to
good housekeepers, and replaced. The
windows are draped in lace aud dam
ask as of old, anil the only change in
the whole arrangement from that of
last year is the substitution of a full
length portrait of ex-President Ar
thur for that of Gen. Grant in the Red
Parlor. The portrait of the latter has
been placed in a conspicuous position
in the corridor.
During the week several Republican
officials here were relegated to private
life. Nearly all the higher officials in
the Treasury Department now are
new men and Democrats, and the
good work of the new broom goes on
steadily if not rapidly.
Secretary Manning seems to grasp
his whole complicated Department,
and his energetic business methods
are felt through every branch of it.
He spread consternation among
Treasury clerks last Friday by issuing
an order that the names of all clerks
who came late to the Department
should be reported to the chief clerk.
The door-keepers at the Treasury were
armed with tablets anil took down
the names of tardy clerks as they ar
rived. The result of the first day’s
catch was 235 delinquents.

CONTRADICTION.
BY KATE THORN.
Nobody likes to be contradicted.
Everybody thinks his way is right;
and he is prepared to prove it by argu
ment.
Heaven deliver us from argument!
We would rather hear it thunder, any
time. If a man doesn't believe as we
do, we let him believe as he pleases.
His conversion to our way of think
ing isn't worth the trouble of an ar
gument.
Bat there are as many people as help
ed build the Tower of Babel Who
make it a point to contradict every
thing, and then prove by argument
that they are right. When this sort
of thing occurs in general society, it is
simply disagreeable; when it takes
place among friends, it is odious: when
it prevails bet ween husband and wife,
it is contemptible.
Contradiction and argument are
two of the rocks on which the ship
matrimonial splits. Niy woman can
be happy with a husband who per
petually" argues; no man can keep
his love for a woman at fever heat
when she is continually contradicting
him.
It cannot be expected. Before men
are married they are all male angels
in pantaloons anil tall hats; after-
warilthevare creatures with stomachs,
and they relish baked beans, and
beefsteak and onions, more than
they do kisses and moonlight rambles;
and’ the confiding girl who lived on
love and ice-cream before marriage,
will verv likely turn out a managing
woman.'with a craving after silk dress
es, aud French hats, and velvet carpets
and both parties to the contract will
feel aggrieved, and they will talk it
over and talking it over always means
argument and contradiction.
Don’t you do it! If your husband
argues about the best way to make
sponge cake—for people always argue
in regard to matters of winch they
know nothing—if you don't believe it.
set a dozen of your acquaintances out
on the subject of religion—let him
have his way; you can't convince him
that you know best.
And, young man, if your wife per
sists iu assuring you that she can
manage your office business better
than you, let her think so. It won t
cost anything. It's the cheapest
thing you can give her. And you
needn’t attempt to convince her that
she is wrong, for no man in these days,
when the average duration of human
life is so short, would live long enough.
So it would be ammunition wasted.
We heard a couple, not long since,
argue all one afternoon about the
best wav to drive a nail, and the lec
tures were illustrated by experiments,
and four pounds of nails were used up
on a piece of fence-board; the hammer
came off the handle nine times, strid
ing the dog once, breaking the gob
lets the second time, giving the man
a black eve the fifth time, and the
rest of the time it flew off without
danger. When tne controversy was
over, both parties had proved to a
disinterested observer that neither of
them could drive a nail straight: and
on looking over the fence-boaril, after
active hostilities were suspended, we
found only one nail sticking fast, and
that had been broken off in the fray.
The husband had raised a blood-blister
on his thumb, pounded the skin off
his knee, and tore the tail of his coat
on a broken nail: and the wife hail all
the fingers of her left hand disabled,
and there wasn't enough skin left on
her thumb to furnish a musquito with
sufficient epidermis to enable him to
do common business.
And the husband still held to his
opinion, anil of course, if you ever
saw a woman, you know that she still
held to hers.
There are, usually, certain subjects
an which friends who know each other
well disagree, and they know that
they disagree on them. Let them
forbear from speaking on such sub
jects. If there is anything disgusting
to the public in general, it is being
compelled to listen while two people
try to bring each to the same way of
seeing a thing.
It is worse than hearing a saw idea.
It is more rasping to the nerves than
to live next door to a girl wboislearn-
ing to plav on the violin. It is worse
than a back yard feline concert. \Ve
should infinitely prefer the braying
of a well-bred jackass. Ues, we think
we would rather hear two bob-tailed
vellow dogs bark, and seven canary
birds sing, and two steam-engines
blow off steam, and a score of Niagara
liack-drivers yell for passengers all at
once, than hear two people argue.

Dr. Louis Pasteur has Found
a Sure Cure for Hydrophobia.
[Special to New Y'ork Herald.]
Paris, October 28.—No more hy
drophobia! No more mad dogs! Dr.
Louis Pasteur’s experiments have re
sulted in a most brilliant success. At
perhaps the most important sitting
held by the Academy of Sciences Dr.
Pasteur thus described the process of
cure by means of a rabbit inoculated
with the fragment of a tissue taken
from the spine of a rabid dog. The
incubation of the poison occupied fif
teen days. As soon as the first rabbit
inoculated was dead a portion from its
spinal marrow was in turn inoculated
into a second rabbit, and so on until
sixty rabbits have been inoculated.
At each successive inoculation the vi
rus increased in potency, and the last
period of incubation did not occupy
more than seven days.
Having ascertained that exposure
to dried air diminished the virus, and
consequently reduced its force Dr.
Pasteur supplied himself with a series
of bottles of dried air. In these bot
tles he placed portions of inoculated
spinal marrow at successive dates, the
oldest being the least virulent anil
the latest the more so. For an oper
ation Dr. Pasteur begins by inocula
ting his subject with the oldest tissue,
and finishes by the injection of a
piece of tissue whose bottling dates
back only two days, and whose peri
od of incubation" would not exceed
one week. The subject is then found
to be absolutely proof against the
disease.
A boy, twelve years of age, named
Meister, who had been bitten fourteen
times, came from Alsace with his
mother to see Dr. Pasteur. The au
topsy of the ilog which had bitten the
boy left no doubt as to its having suf
fered from hydrophobia. Dr. Pasteur
took the celebrated Dr. Vulpian aud
a professor of the school of Medicine
to see the boy Meister. These two
doctors came to the conclusion that
the boy was doomed to a painful
death and might be experimented up
on. In thirteen days inoculations
were made upon Meister with pieces
of spinal marrow containing virus of
constantly increasing strength, the
last being from the spine of a rabbit
that died only the day before. Now
a hundred days has passed since
Meister underwent the last inocula
tion. The treatment has been thor
oughly successful aud the boy is in
perfect health. He had been bitten
sixty hours and travelled from Alsace
to Paris before the first inoculation
was performed.
A shepherd boy named Judith, a-
ged 15, was bitten by a mad dog a
fortnight ago and he has now been
a week under treatment. Dr. Pesteur
L“ confident of curing him.
-Jr. Pesteur said that it was now
necessary to provide an establishment
where rabbits might always be kept
inoculated with the disease. In this
way a constant supply of spinal tis
sue’s of old and recent inoculation would
always be ready. Before the sitting
was adjourned Dr. Pasteur received
an enthusiastic ovation from both
the Academy itself and the public who
were present. Among those present
I noticed the Grand Duke Alexis, who
is a great dog fancier, and M de Les-
seps, who w'ent to hear Dr. Pasteur’s
report endorsed by I)r. Vulpian.
One of the leading doctors present
remarked that the question was
whether a man cured of hydrophobia
could suffer from a second bite. In
other words, whether the inoculation
of virus was a guarantee against liy-
prophobia. In answer Dr. Pasteur
states that the malady is transmissi
ble only by bite. If, therefore, by a
general compulsory inoculation of
dogs for several generations, dogs
had been made incapable of hydro
phobia, the malady would have dis
appeared anil there w ould be no occa
sion to ask whether inoculation had a
permanent effect or not. As to the
origin of hydrophobia. Dr. Pasteur
says nobody in the world can explain
its primal causes. As he remarked—
perhaps out of politeness—his theory
will require study by the profession
in^order to make it practical, but lie
empatically stated that the cure for
hydrophobia had been found.
A BI6 GAME OF FARO.
The Famous Play of Ben Wood and John
Morrissey.
Boston Herald: Speaking of high I
may' as well tell you a story, the truth
of which is well known among sport
ing men, about a game between John
Morrissey and Ben Wood the famous
gambler,’Fernando Wood’s brother:
In 1867 I was running a game at
No. 1 West Twenty-fourth street, New
York City, where the Hoffman House
now stands. I was going home about
4 o’clock one morning, when, seeing a
light in the window of Morrissey’s
gambling house, at No. 5, I thought
I would go up for a few minutes and
see what was going on. I found only
a half dozen men there, the rest look
ing on while Wood and Momssey were
playing faro. About the time 1 came
in the game stopped and Wood was
*62,000 winner. The company took a
few drinks, and after some talk Mor
rissey said to Wood; “You can doub
le that $62,000 or lose it.”
“All right,” said Wood. “Get be
hind the table and give me sixty-two
chips representing $1,000 each, and I'll
go you.” So Morrissey began to deal
and Wood to play against the bank.
At first Wood's luck seemed to have
turned against him, for in ten min
utes he lost twenty nine of his chips,
so that he had only thirty-three chips,
left, representing *33,000. At this
point he made up his mind to risk the
whole of this sum upon a single turn.
There was only three cards left in the
box—the tray, eight and six spot.
Wood placed his $33,000 on the eight;
it was the largest bet ever made in
this country over a gambling table.
Morrissey drew the fatal cards slowly
out of the box. If he won he would
have his $63,000 back, and would owe
Wood nothing. All held their breath.
The turn came, tray, eight, and Wood
scooped in $33,000 at one haul. The
luck changed from that point anil
Morrissey was soon cleaned out.
When the game was over he handed
Wood a check for $80,000 aud a note
at 30 days for the remainder of the
$124,000 he owed him as the result of
that night's plav. The sort of game
I have just described is called a “soap 1
or “freezeout.” It ia/figually played
by only two nun, each, of whom pats
up an equ^mrotount of money. When
eiWjpTWed out the “snap is
> and the game is at an end.
