The hat was passed around and there was a long pause The chairman was then pained, as he said to on® hundred ^and eighty-one dollars had been contributed. The hat was then passed around again by the chairman himself, who came in on the home-stretch so smilingly that suspicion was aroused that he had ob tamed at least live dollars extra for the Uture operations of the great party.

I j, tills scarcity of money among the indus trial classes that is causing this discontent and distrust of monetary system. The party," as our cotemporary sneeringly calls it, is stronger in numbers than in money. Paradoxical ns it may seem, its strength consists in its pecuniary weak ness.

Vincent and Mrs. J. B. Meyeur. The old ladies lived together, with two adopted boys, and carried on a laundry as a means of making a livelihood. On Wednesday Mrs. Vincent prepared the dinner for the family, one of the dishes being stewed tripe and potatoes. Shortly after partaking of it both the old ladies were seized with severe vomiting. The little boys returned from school, but were so distressed at finding their foster-mothers ill that they neglected their dinner. Modical aid was summoned, but without avail. Mrs. Vincent expired the same evening, while Mrs. Meyeur lingered until the next morning, when she also died, ihe dish of tripe, which had been set away for the children, was given to a cat and dog, both of which were soon unable to move about. A few days before the sad occurrence one of the old ladies had purchased a quan tity of oxalic acid, which, in its crystal- ized state, closely resembles epsom salts, and might be mistaken for salt. It is supposed that by mistake this deadly poison was used in seasoning the dish o 1 tripe. Sneak Thieves in New Obleans.— There are more sneak thieves in New Orleans than hold offue under the Radi- cal government. On Thursday afternoon about four o'clock Mr. Ohman, a jeweler, corner of Poeyfarre and Annunciation streets, noticed three or four young men standing at his show case. Suddenly one of them rolled his hat, a soft felt one, around his hand and making a blow at the glass smashed it to pieces. Before Mr. Ohman could reach him be seized three valuable gold watelies, with which he and his -pals” effected their escepe. On the same evening while Mrs. Piabei was walking along Camp street she was approached stealthily from behind by i. sneak thief, who deliberately *na*clifd her valuable shawl from her ihmld rs and ran away with it, rff cting his es cape with the property de-pite her alarm and the hot purauit of persons on the street. There is something radically wrong in New Orleans. For many years the air of the Hiust bas been notoriously bed; bad in fact jo- well as in metaphor; bad e*veu fer Wasu- ington; so bad that the Congres-men themselves complain of it. Naturaily enough, the prime reason is that the room is surrounded by lobbies. Eugiuters have long endeavored to pump the pure air of heaven into the House, but have never succeeded in getting any that did not come from below. It now appears that even this source of ventilation has been vitiated, and sundry nastinesses have been contributing to the air supply. No wonder that Congress has so often been in bail odor.—-V. I. Tribune. Wo can very well understand why the Hall of Representatives, especially in warm weather, or when heated above n reasonable temperature, should Re redo lent with the perfumes, not of Arabia. But that is not to be remedied by engi neering or pumping. ^Ihe evil is consti tutional, and came in with the Fifteenth Amendment. a eter Cooper, and many other .„nt gentlemen. We are told that it not the present design of the leaders in this movement to establish an indepen dent organization, but simply to make such a showing of strength inside the Democratic party as will briDg the more ultra faction represented by Mr. Tilden to terms, put an end to their intolerable arrogance, and silence tbeir dictation. It is to be Loped that good will result from this movement and that the Wall street stock-jobbers will be taught not only that they are not to have matters all their own way, but that if they would compose the disagreements among Demo crats on the financial question and pre serve the unity of the party they must cease their domineering dictatorial tone which is fast driving the anti-contrac- tiouists of the West and South into re volt. Already in the West we observe a growing spirit of resistance to Northern and Eastern dictation that bodes no good to the country. The Democracy of the Union must harmonize on this vital issue. Outbaoes on the Rio Gbasde.—Gen. Sheridan has had several conferences with Representative Schleicher, of the Com mittee on Outrages on tho Mexican bor der, in which be advocated tbe policy of .pursuing the Mexican cattlo thieves until caught, without regard to boundaries, and when caught to puuish them with an effective dose of powder and lead. He also recommended that two of the regu lar regiments be recruited up to the war standard, as that would be more economi cal than to raise two additional regiments for this service. A bill embodying these views, as to the military force for this "ial duty, will be introduced at an at least shameful latiy day. Should 4 pass, as seems prob able the fourth and eighth regiments of cavalrv, will be vecruitod up for oper- at ions'along the Bio Grande. Preparing.—Preparations are being made in ail the States for the Presidential and State elections of this year, but the preparations in Louisiana are of a strangely martial character. The Repub licans «re barricading the Senate chamber so that the enemy cannot get in, and, at the same time they are urrangtug secret passages to escape by, in case the enemy should get in. The trouble grows out of the disagreement of the two Ifousesabout the new election law. Each party wants a law under which it can te sure of carry ing the State, and neither seems inclined to accept anything less. The threat of the House, which is Democratic, to im peach Gov. Kellogg and the State Treasurer, Dubucklet, for misappropria tion of the public moneys, complicates the difficulty. The outlook for peace in Louisiana this centennial year is not encouraging. The St. Louis Republican thinks it is too much to hope that the election will come and go without the enlivening accompaniment of musketry and artillery. It is the opinion of William Allen, of OLiio, that Grant is the strongest man in ihe Republican party, and that he will be uominaU‘4 far the ? u'ce?sion in spite of ill that is said agaicst the third term. Tbe way the nom a.itiou will be brought .bcu% aicoidlng to the venerable ex G Vxrnor, is tli : G.tftit w ill have tLe largest vote cn the first ballot, and when r he other candidatts see this each will be eager to give Lis fallowing to him for the purpose of defeating the others. Conk ing prefer-' Grant to Morton, and Morton prefers hiuf to B’.aiue, and Blaine prefers him to either of the others. It is in the power of either of these three to nomi nate Grant, and one of them, the ex-Gov- ernor believes, will do it.

General Schenck’s Prospective Re tirement.—There have been many ru mors concerning General Schenck of late in anticipation of his resignation, and it appears now, after much unnecessary evasion, that thes.) rumors are likely to be realized. Generai Schenck has been exceedingly unfortunate in his associa tions as regards the Emma mine scandal, and has drawn upon himself no little ridicule by the publication of a rather undiplomatic work on tho game of “poker.” The matter of the Emma mine, it is stated, will most likely be investi gated by the Congressional Committee on Foreign Atlairs before the resignation of General Schenck will be accepted. Should tho St Louis jury convict Bab cock it would be accomplished in spite of the most arduous efforts of a superb array of counsel enlisted in his behalf. Not only have the prosecution been compelled to meet the objections of this force of able lawyers, but, accordihg to a correspond ent who has closely watched the proceed ings in court, they have met with out side opposition, not alone from the per sonal friends of the defendant, but from those in high and powerful official and political stations, whose behavior, if not deserving of severer terms of censure, is Washington is thick with rumors in reference to prospective Cabinet and other changes. The situation is fevensh as to the Treasury Department, and it is ^ to be quite certain that Bristows tenure of office hangs iargely upon the result of the Babcock trial “ » ab 18 acquitted, Bristow will retire.

The report is a terrible arraignment of the police and the District Attorney’s office in New York city. The report claims that much of the crime in that city is at tributed to the demoralization of the police aud the inefficiency of the prose cuting officers o? the county. The Ex cise Board, too, is declared to be in efficient. Miners have already commenced flock ing to the Black Hills. During the second week of February one hundred and eighty wagons were seen in that neighborhood, and two hundred adven turers had already arrived. THE STATE UNIVERSITY B'LL.

The weather is stoimy to-night, but Booth is playing to a crowded house. Tho Senate and House adjourned to attend. A large sum of money locked up in Western banks, which fails to find satis factory investment, is not regarded as a good indication. Recent advices from St. Louis convey the information that at no time in the history of that city has there been such an abundance ol rnone}’, aud simultaneously such difficulty on the part of customers to obtain it. Bank de positors are said to be uncertain and fluc tuating, business is precarious, and the outlook extremely doubtful. Alluding to the subject the Globe-Democrat says: “The panic upset thousands who would otherwise be in ordinary shape to-day, and the fact that the thousands are fail ing to make good their extensions, and are succumbing to the condition of things, prompts thousands of other wild, unsorupulous operators and dealers to take the advantage of riding in a large and well-accompanied boat and beat their creditors.” In b t ? iId;a SU‘S Isvoos, BiSMppi, Louisiana and Florida ’ 11 A.tnVoSa? , ‘ he ■tv and for wnat pur^Tw uUjor - instructions lo bis snLrdiates in J ga,e tion of the lon^-estahii.i, 1 teS i In C0D .raven- tbe. testimony Of acc^plj^® ■- da, . in ? t0 actions.

JAY COOKE A CO. Washington, February 21.—The Supreme Court iu the case of Lewis, trustee of Jay Cooke A Co., against tlio United States Court, affirmed the right of the government to apply on a later debt the proceeds of col laterals pledged in 1n73, by Cooke, McCul loch & Co., of Loudon, as security for de posits made with thorn by the government as disbursing agents of the Navy Depart ment,and decided that as to the sum of £123,- 000 at that time deposited with Cooke,McCul loch A Co., the government was entitled to priority out of the separate estates of mem bers of the firm of Jay Cooke A Co., who were also members of the firm of Cooke, McCulloch A Co. The court says the gov ernment is not bound by the bankrupt act, and that the objection that the claim was not proved in the BaukruDtcy Court has, therefore, no farco—that it Is a case of trust fuuds withheld by the trustee from the ben eficiary, and of which the Circuit Court had original and plenary jurisdiction, Washington notes.

Owing to the general depression, and the absence of snow in Maine, but little has been done this winter in the lumber ing business in the towns bordering on the Saco river, and but a small quantity of lumber will be sawed and manufac* tured at the mills there during the pre sent year. About two years ago my wife had a very troublesome cough of so serious a character that we all became very anxious: indeed it seemed that we had but little to hope for as the lungs were affected. We tried various medicines, but v«rv little if any benefit seemed to be derived from any of them; so that it appeared the disease had complete mastery and nothing but death would bring relief. * I was then advised to give Dr. D. Jayne’s Expectorant a trial, and doing so, to our surprise, found great benefit from its use. Persisting with it, she gradually com menced improving until the principal symp toms disappeared entirely, and she has en joyed reasonably good health ever since.— John Musgrave, HubbardsviUe, Kentucky, *feb22-Tu,ThASa32p The SlL Louis Republican asks: Who are the government’s friends in this Bab cock trial ? We hear of the government conducting the case on one side, but when we look we find a good part of the government enlisted on the otner. The President, the Philadelphia Supervisor and the secret emissary from tho Attor ney General's office are all striving to prove the prisoner innocent, while “the government” is supposed to be trying to prove him guilty. When McKee said “it is bigger than the government” he meant that it was the government itself. The St. Louis Republican has a corres pondent in jaiL He writes: “A rumor is current in here that the New Orleans whisky ring are to be transferred to St. Louis for trial. In the name of morality, in the name of decent roguery, the pris oners in this jail protest against being obliged to associate with the government officials of Louisiana—the line must be drawn somewhere.” A TOAST. to.sl'hVfE 01 '’ I i cbruar y 21.—Tbe follbwiDg Inancl. ad ?P ,ed b J the several com- mands of the Centennial Lezion, which teen8t*i S corp ? ^ rom eacb •* '1>* ;dd tair- on the^t‘h V?* 1 ! 18 ,0 psrad ' in Fliiladelphia on the 1th uf July next.

The Money Feature in Politics.—A Washington special to the Baltimore Sun says: “Western politicians have a good deal to say about the nomination of Representative Landers as the inflation candidate for Governor of Indiana.

Yet they do not seem willing to endorse Mr. Landers. The hope is that the Republicans may also bo split upon the currency question, which is not impossible. Leading Republicans say they would not be surprised to see not only the hard and soft money wings of both parties putting up candidates in one or more of the Western States, but also four candidates for the Presidency in the field. t ?alcs.
