J. H. ESTILL, Proprietor. NO. 3 WHITAKER STREET, (MORNING NEWS BUILDING). W. T. THOMPSON, Editor. FRIDAY, JANUARY 11, 1878. TAPPING THE WIRES. Mebemet Ali has gone to arrange the armis tice. The Porte has agreed to propose a six weeks’ armistice on the basis of ubipossidetis. peace negotiations to commence as scon as the armistice comes into operation. The Turkish army defending Schipka Pass was captured by General Podetski, after des perate fighting, on the 9th. The army captured consisted of forty-one battalions, ten batteries and a regiment of cavalry. Prince Muski has occupied Kazanlik and Gen. Skobeloff holds Schipka. An insurrection broke out in Crete on Tues day and Mr. Layard has requested that British men-of-war be sent there. The thaw on the Danube has commenced, and if it continues the movement of ice will inter rupt communication more than ever. It is, says a correspondent at Bucharest, impossible to de scribe the situation on the Danube. The Rus sian Intendance Department is helpless, and telegrams are suppressed with a view of pre venting the state of affairs from befiig known in Europe. Spotted typhus of a terribly malignant char acter prevails in Fraleshto and the neighbor hood, and it is whispered that it is really the plague. The women ballot seekers continued their stormy and unruly convention in Washington yesterday, and a •‘colored pusson” of the fe male way of curling her heir has turned up as a delegate from Mississippi Edward J. Dunning, note broker of Wall street. New York, has made an assignment. His liabilities are fixed at between five and six hundred thousand dollars. Elisha and Charles Eldred. lumber dealers, and Willis &. Faulkner, wholesale grocers, of Chicago, have also suc cumbed to the financial pressure. The great Carrington Savings Bank of Spring- field, Massachusetts, has suspended payment, pending investigation by the State Bank Com missioners. The officers are confident of being able to meet all liabilities. Deposits $407,000. liabilities, total. $414,000. The lower House of the Wisconsin Legisla ture was organized yesterday by electing a “Greenbacker” as Speaker, and a Democratic Chief Clerk and Sergeant-at-Arras. This result was effected by a combination of Green backers and Democrats. Senator Allison will probably be re-elected • United States Senator from Wisconsin by the Legislature, which meets on Monday next, there being no other candidate in the field. A steam tug has left the Thames for Ferrol, Spain, to bring over the caisson containing Cleopatra’s obelisk. Three forged drafts for one thousand dollars each of the First National Bank of Charleston, were discovered Wednesday at the National Park Bank of New York. They had been sent by the Bank of the Republic. There is a conflict between Governor Vance and the Supreme Court as to whether the Governor has the right to appoint a Chief Jus tice of the Supreme Court vice Chief Justice Pearson recently deceased. Tabitha Ann Colton, after a very creditable examination, was granted a license to practice law in the courts of North Carolina It is the first instance of a woman lawyer in the Old North State. A young man named Pontin, of New York, who was to have been married to a beautiful j-oung lady on Wednesday night, committed suicide on Wednesday afternoon, becar.se his father refused to attend the wedding. It was a narrow escape of the young lady. The notorious Underwood brothers, who had been stealing from farmers near Concord, Ken tucky, were overtaken by Deputy Sheriff Bug gies and a posse. On being commanded to sur render, they fired, killing Ruggles. The fire was returned, and both the outlaws were woun- ded and captured. It is thought they would be lynched. The President of France touchingly announces officially the death of King Victor Emanuel, and says the loss of a sovereign who held so great a place in Europe will be strongly felt in France. The Assembly of New York yesterday passed the resolution opposing the passage of the Bland silver bill by a vote of 105 to 17. Itev. Dr. J. C. Eccleston has formally declined the Episcopate of West Virginia, in a letter to the Standing Committee. He says he does not feel it to be his duty to accept and sees no possi bility of reaching a different conclusion. C. T. Reynolds &. Co., of New York, deny that they are involved in Dunning’s failure, and are prepared to pay any paper of theirs which holders may present. Libbrell & Co., of Richmond, manufacturers of smoking tobacco, have been perpetually en joined from using the word “Durham” and the symbol as a trade mark upon their tobacco. The suit was instituted by Blackwell & Co., of North Carolina, manufacturers of “Durham’’ smoking tobacco. Over forty Senators were in the chamber be fore the Senate was called to order, and the morning hour was taken up in the presentation of a number of petitions from various parts of the country in favor of a sixteenth amendment to the Constitution, prohibiting States from dis franchising persons on account of tax. The Ways and Means Committee have re ferred the question of relieving savings banks from taxation to a sub committee of five. A resolution proposing a sixteenth amend ment, giving women the right to vote, was in troduced by Sergeant in the Senate, and re ferred to the Committee on Privileges and Elections. Kellogg, of Louisiana, introduced a bill to af ford protection and security to the shipping trade, commerce and alluvial lands of the Mis sissippi. and also a bill to provide for a steam ship line from New Orleans to certain points in Mexico. Th^enate resumed the consideration and dis cussed Matthews’ resolutions to pay interest and principal of bonds in the future. Mr. Beck, of Kentucky, spoke in favor of remonetization and denounced the acts of 1874 demonetizing silver as unconstitutional and v'cious. The toljacco men from Virginia met and con ferred with leading men of Congress from vari ous sections of the country in reference to the reduction of the tobacco tax. Senator Lamar and Representative Chalmers will introduce bills in their resp* 'ctive houses somewhat similar to that of Mr. Stephens In regard to the Southern Pacific Railroad, making, however, the eastern terminus at Vicksburg. The principal amendments to the Bland silver hill, proposed by the opponents of that measure, are that silver shall not be made receivable for customs duties; that the principal and interest of the public debt shall be paid in gold, aud that the coinage of silver shall lie placed at about $50,000,001) a year, with the privilege granted to the government to purchase silver bulliou, and realize what ever profit it may in the coinage. Com menting on these proposed amendments, the Chicago Tribune says: “It is believed that American remoneti zation will so enhance the bullion value of silver by breaking the corner in gold as to leave the government no profit on the coinage; nevertheless, the people will accept this compromise, and leave the desirability of free coinage to be de termined by future developments. But no compromise will be entertained that contemplates any limitation of the legal- tender quality of the silver dollar.” Mrs. Annette Wilhelmina Wilkins Hicks Lord was evidently determined that, as fast as priests could make them, her aged lover and herself should be one. It is now alleged that two marriage ser vices were performed, one by Cardinal McCloskey, and another by a Protestant clergyman. It only remains now for a civil ceremony to be celebrated, and no less a personage than the Mayor of the city of New York should officiate on the occasion. Then if the stepsons can suc ceed in untying this threefold matrimo- knot, they will be shrewd indeed. The Russian Grand Dukes have worn tire stars and feathers in the present war, but the plebians have done the fighting. Gcurko, Skobeleff, Melikoff, Todleben, all sprang from the people. Their ser vices are now being appropriately re cognized. Todleben has command of the Czarowitch's army, Melikoff has the Grand Duke Michael's, Skobeleff and Gourko have the two fighting corps in the Grand Duke Nicholas’ army. Mr. Pendleton's Financial Views. Hon. George H. Pendleton, whose election by the Ohio Legislature as United States Senator, in place of Stanley Mat thews, appointed to fill Sherman's unex pired term, is announced in our tele graphic columns, was a few days since interviewed. In the interview he de clared that his financial views are the same as he held in 1808. when he was the champion of the greenback cause. He favors the doing away with national banks aud advocates the issue of green backs in place of national bank notes, the repeal of the resumption law, the re monetization of silver and the issue of all circulating medium by the govern ment, and making silver, gold and paper interconvertible at par The Senatorial contest in Ohio was exciting and closely contested by leading Democrats. Mr. Pendleton’s declaration of hisviews on the financial question no doubt settled the election in his favor. Nothing is more manifest than that the people of the great West, without respect to party, arc- resolved on some practical measure' of financial relief, and their failure to se cure the remonetization of silver will only lead to the agitation and final adop tion of some other popular measure, less acceptable, perhaps, to the bondholders and money loaners than silver remone tization. A lynching in Bakerfield, Cal., had pe culiar features. The mob demanded five robbers of the Sheriff, but he tied with the keys of the jail. Three hours of hard work with sledges and crowbars, however, delivered the five culprits into the lynchers’ hands. A court room was opened, and the usual forms of a crimi nal trial were observed. A Judge, law yers for the prosecution and the defence, and a jury were chosen without trouble; but there was a difficulty about witnesses. The testimony for the prosecution was meagre, and all hearsay. The jury agreed without delay, however, and the priso ners were sentenced to be hanged imme diately in the yard of the court house. Will Mr. Hayes Succumb! Yery conflicting reports reach us as to the future course to be adopted by Mr. Hayes. On one band, we are informed authoritatively that he is anxious for a reconciliation with the Blaine-Conkling- Chandler wing of the Radical party, and will endeavor to appease them by doing no act hereafter which will excite the ire of these, his bitter foes; while on the other, it is stated in equally as authori tative manner that he “ has made up his mind,and that mind is this: “He does not care a fig for Roscoe Conkling, or a mil lion of men like him. He intends—nay, is firmly resolved—to pursue the even tenor of his Way under every and all cir cumstances. Conkling’s rage only makes Mr. Hayes smile.” Although it is impossible to predict at any time what line of conduct a Radical administration will pursue—for “in ways that are dark,"etc., such an administra tion can always put the most heathenish of heathen Chinese to the blush—we are strongly inclined to believe the latter statement regarding Mr. Hayes’ future course to be correct. Indeed it seems to bo perfectly plain that this is the only determination to which Mr. Hayes, as a rational man, can arrive, since by suc cumbing he forfeits everything, while by resisting he has nothing to lose and,may hap, something to gain. What would be the natural result if he were to yield? He would immediately alienate from him all the friends of his own party, as well as the friendly feel- irgs of all such of the Democracy as he has gained by repudiating Grantism and adopting a liberal policy: That he can not afford to do this is very evident. Even in his own party ranks there are thousands who approve his course and are violently opposed to the conduct of the ultra Radicals. Noth- tng has ever been more clearly proven thau this has been by the action of the Radical Convention in Chandler’s own State, New Hampshire, the pro ceedings of which we published yester day morning. In that convention, though the prevailing sentiment Wits declared to be simply “a choice between Republican and Democratic rule,” we read that the proceedings were characterized by great boisterousness and an utter lack of har mony. Several delegates made severe personal attacks on Chandler, one going so far as to denounce him as “a political tramp" and a dishonest lobbyist, while another, speaking of Hayes’ South ern policy, uttered most liberal sentiments, saying that “he was ready to shake hands with the man who had put a bullet through his arm.” So high, indeed, ran passionate feeling that the scene is de scribed as “stormy, with some personal! ties smelling of pistols and coffee." But, in spite of all this uproar, caused only by the partisans of Chandler, the latter was rebuked and resolutions were adopt ed approving Mr. Ilayes’ administration. Of course, then, if he yields to Conkling, Blaine and Chandler he at once antago nizes all these his friends, and since they are in the majority, who can doubt but that he will thereby make more enemies than he will gaiu allies? Again, if he succumbs be will thus alieuate his friends without gaining the respect of his enemies. For how will he then appear? Only as a man devoid of all principle aud without the slightest particle of manhood or strength of char acter. He will have yielded up every position on which he has planted himself. His civil service reform ground, which he assumed with such a flourish of tram pets, will be ingloriously abandoned to the enemy. His repudiation of Grant ism, in which he acknowledged the will of the people of the Union, and which more than anything else has served to give to his administration whatever credit it may be entitled, will be discarded, and he will hereafter defy popular sentiment, completely destroy the idea of conscientiousness which commends his administration, and make himself generally odious. As a consequence he will be regarded by the very men who now assail him as a weak, nerveless creature—one only fit to )>e despised—and they will permit no op portunity to pass to manifest their con tempt. Mr. Hayes must be fully aware of these things, and know that by yielding to the ultra Radicals he will alienate his friends, incur the contempt of his enemies, and render his administration generally hate ful and hated. Then, what is left him but to go down to history degraded and dishonored. As we have remarked in a previous article, the only lustre he can possibly hope to shed upon an administration universally believed to be fraudulent, is to be acquired by doing bis duty under the Constitution, and henceforward adhering strictly to what he knows to be right. H he fails in this then all is gone; he will only be remem bered by posterity as a weak, cowardly and despicable usurper, nothing more. As we have remarked, Mr. Hayes must know this, therefore we do not believe that he will yield the contest in which he is now engaged with the Blaines, Conk- lings and Chandlers, and thereby commit moral and political suicide. "Banks to the Front" Under this caption, the New York Journal of Commerce calls upon the banks of the Eastern and Atlantic cities to send delegates to the meeting of the New York Clearing House Association, which was held on “Wednesday, in structed to co-operate with that meeting, and to vote for resolutions to make all future loans and contracts payable in gold alone. It is believed by this action that the sentiment of the country, now so strongly in favor of silver remoneti zation, may be bulldozed in favor of gold, and thus it may become “possible that the silver plague may be stayed.” In this article the Journal of Commerce confesses that the silver movement has assumed gigantic proportions, and that this proposed meeting is almost too late to accomplish anything. It notes the fact that during the recess of Congress, the silver men of the West have been holding public meetings and with so great force has the silver tidal wave swept over that section, and public sentiment on the question there is so unanimous, that conservative, careful men, like Davis and Thurman, have been car ried along by it, and been forced to give their undoubted strength to the “winning side.” It hopes, however, that all may not yet be wholly lost to the gold advocates, and urges that ‘ ‘the banks of New York and their associates in the great Atlantic cities shall rush on this monster with the courage of a forlorn hope.” That the fears of that paper are well founded, and that its proposed bull dozing effort is indeed a forlorn hope is very manifest. All the people of the West, and a vast majority of those in the South—in short, all the debtor classes of the country, are fully alive and awake to their interests in this regard. They have only in the past few days seen business house after business house, bank after bank fail, crash succeeding crash in bewildering rapidity, and all brought about by a tremendous shrinkage of values caused by a rapid and most unnatural contraction of the currency. They propose to stop this ruinous contraction and monied embarrassment if they can, and are determined that if they can obtain relief by means of the con etitutional money of this country—silver as well as gold—they will do so. In fact, they look upon the remonetization of sil ver as necessary to their vitality, and that is the least they will submit to. If they cannot get that they will probably de mand utter repudiation. At present, however, they do not de sire to repudiate one cent of the national debt. They only desire that the natural silver product of the country may be utilized to their relief in accordance with the views of the United States Con stitution, and to secure this they are willing to accept a silver dollar of 4164 grains nine-tenths fine; which, judging by the gold quotations of our pre sent subsidiary silver coins of only 384.8 grains, nine-tenths fine, (and legal tender for only $5), will be worth a fraction over one hundred and one cents in gold. The Journal of Com merce may, therefore, well regard the op position to the success of these views as a “forlorn hope,” for they are deter minedly and vigorously held by a very large majority of the citizens of the United States. This question has become one of vital importance to the people of the country, and for the banks to combine and array themselves on the side of the gold advocates and bondholders will only tend to still more excite popular feeling against the single gold standard. BY TELEGRAPH. THE DEMOCRATIC ABSENTEES IN THE HOUSE. REPUBLICANS CONTROLLING LEGISLATION. Reconciliation Between Hayes and Leading Republican Senator*. Special Telegram to the Homing .Van. Washington, January 10.—Much dis satisfaction was expressed by Demo crats in tbe House at the large number of absentees from their ranks to-day. The Republicans practically had control of legislation in that body. Strong efforts are being made to heal the breach between the President and leading Republicans in the Senate, and it is expected that a complete reconciliation will be effected in time to kill off any movement tending to investigation. FROM THE NATIONAL CAPITAL. Debate on Resumption Resumed in the House. KELLOGG MOVING IN MISSISSIPPI RIVER INTERESTS. Debate on Matthews' Resolution on Payment of Interest on Bonds. SENATOR BECK ON TIZ.1TIO.V. RERON’E- The Women Ballot Seekers Snubbed by the Senate. If, says the St. Louis Republican, some cheap way is invented for working the secondary gravel beds of California, which the gold advocates say contain $100,000,000,000 worth of gold, or those undiscovered mines in the heart of Africa, which no human eye has yet looked upon, should be discovered by some daring explorer, gold might fall very much lower in value than silver. Then the single gold standard people would be more clamorous for gold de monetization than they now are for silver demonetization. The cardinal doctrine of finance with them is, that a debtor should always pay ten to fifty per cent, more than he owes. If they get their way about silver, it wont be long before they will find out that there is too little gold in the standard dollar, and there will be a movement to put 30 instead of 25.8 grains of standard gold in that coin. There is, in fact, no end to the path they want us to follow; and when a man be gins to pay back more money than he borrows, he starts on the straight road to ruin. A Southern State that is Nearly Oct of Debt.—There is at least one State South of the Ohio the finances of which are in an entirely satisfactory con dition. We refer to Kentucky. The Governor’s message, now before us, makes the statement that the State owes only about $180,000, and ample means have been set aside for the payment of the debt when it becomes due. The re duction in taxation made two years ago has not embarrassed the operations of government, and tbe Treasury showed a balance on October 10 last of over $500,- 000. Since the last session of the Legis lature, over $50,000 have been received on the war claim and nearly $400,000 of that claim against the United States is still due. Another $50,000 has been col lected from tbe United States for tolls on Green and Barren rivers.” Washington, January 10.—The first business in order this morning after tbe meeting of the House was tbe considera tion of the resumption bill reported by Mr. Wood, of New York, from the Ways and Means Committee, giving the various committees special powers in re gard to investigating the several debts of the government. Mr. Hale, of Maine, offered a substi tute providing that such powers shall only be conferred upon committees when specific charges shall be presented to the House in writing. After a long discussion in committee of tbe whole, Mr. Ilale’s substitute was adopted and reported to the House, but pending action the House adjourned. In the Senate Mr. Sargent introduced a joint resolution proposing a sixteenth amendment, giving women the right to vote, which was referred to the Commit tee on Privileges and Elections. Senator Kellogg introduced a bill to improve navigation, and to afford pro tection and security to shipping, trade, commerce and alluvial lands of tbe Mis sissippi river. Senator Kelioggfalso introduced a bill to provide for a steamship line between New Orleans and certain points of Mex ico. This is the same bill which passed the Senate in 1870, and again 1872, but was lost in the House. Mr. Matthews’ resolutions to pay in terest and principal of bonds in the fu ture was resumed. Mr. Beck, of Ken tucky, spoke in favor of the remonetiza tion of silver, though he did not favor the Bland bill as it came from the House of Representatives. He thought the Senate Committee on Finance did right in striking out of the House bill allowing any owner of silver bullion to deposit the same at the mint to be coined into dollars for bis benefit. He areued that Germany had demonetized silver and much of it was for sale in that coun try at a reduced price. Had this clause been allowed to remain in the bill the Ger man Government could bring bullion to this country worth forty-six million dol lars and receive fifty million therefor. He spoke of the acts of 1873, demone tizing silver as unconstitutional and vicious, and reviewed at some length the financial legislation of the government. Silver always had been the coin of the country and the demonetization of it deprived people of one half their means to pay their debts. He believed iu maintaining the national faith, but at the same time tbe people should not be deprived of their legal and constitutional rights. Mr. Sanrent’s resolution, allowing la dies who advocate the sixteenth amend ment to the Constitution conferring the right of suffrage upon females to appear before the Senate in advocacy of that amendment, was rejected—yeas 13, nays 31. The tobacco men from Virginia to-day visited the capitol and conferred with the leading members of Congress from differ ent parts of the country, in regard to tbe proposed reduction of the taxon tobacco to twelve cents per pound. They were kindly received and their views as expressed by the leading members of the committee made a marked impression. The bill introduced by Col. Cabell, mem ber of the House from the Danville, Virginia, district, is strongly advocated by them and embodies the legislation they seek at the hands of Congress for , the relief of the tobacco trade. The j J| IDjVIGHT telegrams. drawback feature of the bill is regarded bv them as of paramount importance. They seek immediate action by Con gress. Mr. C. H. Conrad, a member of the Danville delegation, received a dis patch to-day, saying that leading West ern tobacco 'men will be here to co-ope rate with the Virginia delegation. The representatives of the tobacco interest de sire the bill for this reduction to be kept separate and apart from the tariff bill, in order to insure the earliest action on the part of Congress. Senator Lamar and Representative Chal mers will introduce bills in their respec tive houses somewhat similar to that of Mr. Stephens’ in regard to tbe Southern Pacific Railroad, making, however, the eastern terminus at Vicksburg. Mr. Cox, of New York, introduced a bill in the House for the coinage of silver five cents, to be legal tender for five dol lars, and the discontinuance of the coin age of nickels. Mr. Luttrell introduced a bill forbid ding the employment of Chinese on United States works, or on vessels bear- THE ARMISTICE NEGOTIATIONS. Constantinople, January 10, 1120 a. M.—From a note of Earl Derbv, the British Foreign Minister, to Mr. Layard, Ambassador here, informinghka of the Russian reply concerning the armistice, the Porte inferret it had only to propose an ar mistiee for it to be concluded. Rouf Pasha, Minister of War, accordingly telegraphed yesterday to the Russian Grand Duke proposing an armistice, and announcing that the commander of the Adrianople army had power to treat on behalf of Turkey. Lp to the present time no reply has been received from the Russian headquarters. London, January 10. —A Reuter Bucharest dispatch says: "The Turkish Commander-in-Chief yesterday notified the Russian headquarters at Lovtcha, he was empowered to arrange the basis of an armistice and that Mehemet Ali had been designated as the eventual Tur kish Plenipotentiary. The Grand Duke Nicholas acknowledged the receipt of the communication, adding that he would report the matter to St. Petersburg." WASHINGTON WEATHER PROPHET. Office of the Chief Signal Obser ver.

Cincinnati, January 10.—At Con cord, Kentucky, on Tuesday night, Dep uty Sheriff Ruggles, with a posse, over took the notorious Underwood brothers, who had been stealing horses from the farmers, and demanded their surrender. The Underwoods immediately fired at the party, instantly killing Ruggles. The fire was returned and both of the outlaws were wounded. It is though the Under woods will be lynched by the excited farmers. A TOBACCO INJUNCTION CASE DECIDED. Alexandria. Va., January 10.—Judge Hughes has decided the smoking tobacco suit of Blackwell & Co., of North Caro lina, manufacturers of Durham smoking tobacco, against Sibrell A Co., of Rich mond, Virginia, to enjoin defendants against using the word "Durham” aud the symbol. The decision was agaiust the defendands, and they are perpetually enjoined from using the word ' Durham” and symbol. ECCLESIASTICAL. Newark. N. J., January 10.—The Rev. Dr. J. C. Eccleston has formally declined tbe episcopate of West Virginia. In a letter to the Standing Committee he says that after a month of patient and prayerful consideration of the election he docs not feel it to be his duty to accept, and sees no possibility ot reaching a different conclusion. NARROW ESCAPE OF A BEAUTIFUL YOUNG LADY. New York, January 10.—William S. Pontin, aged twenty-four, who was to have been married to a very beautiful young lady last night, committed suicide yesterday afternoon by shooting himself.

The question whether or not there be an orthodox hell—a place of endless tor ment, a molten sea, seething over in waves of fire and brimstone—is still largely attracting the attention of the secular press, as well as many of the latter-day theologians. The last of these who has thrown himself into the breach, and. along with Beecher and Canon Far rar, has taken up arms in opposition to the orthodox idea, is Professor Swing, of Chicago. On last Sunj day, as he preached a powerful sermon on the subject, taking the ground that the idea of an endless hell, is re pugnant to the idea of an all-loving God. He believes in future punishment as well as future reward, but thinks the world to which those who die in their sins will hereafter be consigned will be only one which will not attain to the paradise of the saints, but to which will come at times such sorrows as beset us here. Says he: I would hold to the word ‘eternal, but would save the beauty and whole character of God by supposing the lost world to be one not which rolls in billow: of fire where agony screams almvc the roaring of flames,' but a world where beings lower thau the saints are living along willingly their unnumbered years. The Frenchman Figuier threw out tbe thought ten years ago that in the far off ages the saints would die again, but tbe second time sweetly, and perhaps again to wake in some higher state. AVords these which reason can neither accept nor reject, for the eternity to come is a duration in which God may have plans too great not only for human faith but even for its conjecture." The entire sermon is well exemplified in this extract therefrom. It is well to remark, however, that the Professor as serfs that he can only speak for himself, and must speak “less from Biblical criti cism than from simple feelings.” MOSS’ FEET. TEN HALF BARRELS PIGS FEET. Just received and for sale by C. Jj. GILBERT & CO., WHOLESALE GROCERS. janll-tf The woman suffragists hope to build themselves up upon the ruin of Radicalism. One of their members, Sara Spencer, President of the late AVo- man's Rights Convention, advocated an affiliation with the Radical party on the ground that it was dying, and “would gladly grasp at woman's suffrage or any thing else” to save it. The fair lady was right, it would. But the trouble is it is so nearly dead already, that it has not strength sufficient left to grab anything, not even a corrupt whisky ring. And when Radicalism cannot grab at corrup tion and fraud, it is indeed in such miser able plight that even woman’s suffrage cannot save it. The indications are that they are both doomed to an early and de served death. REJOICING IN ST. PETERSBURG, CORRESPONDENCE ON THE AR MISTICE. The Democratic Nominee for United States Senator of Ohio. FRENCH AFFAIRS. More of the Dtinnfna Failure. The labors of the United States Com mission, organized for the purpose of in vestigating the subject of insect ravages in tbe AVest and of devising a remedy for the evil, have been finished for the year, and the report will be completed in Feb ruary. In this report will be described the migratory habits of the locust, show ing that, like many species of birds, these insects journey at certain fixed seasons southward, and at certain other seasons return to the places of their origin. These migrations being fore seen, steps may be taken to protect from their ravages the fields which lie under their line of flight. Many methods of doing this are suggested in the report, which will stand beside the Grangers’ bible, if it doesn't take its place. Mother Goose.—We have received from the publishers, Lee & Shepard, Bos ton, through Messrs.

Ten revo lutionary battalions were to be raised, but only two were actually formed. The Turkish Governor bad only five battalions of Redifs, but in tended to organize the Mahometan in habitants. The Turks .seem decided to only hold the towns on the coast and leave the interior to the insurgents.
