TAPPING THE WHW5S.
A number ol bills were reported to the
House yesterday under tbe call of commit
tees. Most of the day was spent in discuss
ing, in committee of the whole, the army
appropriation bill, and without final action
thereon the House adjourned. In the Sen
ate the bill ratifying the Ute agreement
mainly occupied the attention of the mem
bers. Arguments for and against the bill
were advanced by Messrs. Dawes, Williams,
Butler of South Carolina, Coke and others.
Pending discussion the Senate adjourned.
It is stated that Mr. Parnell will retain his
seat in Parliament for Cork city, to which
he was elected. Bitter contests are being
waged between the Parnellites in counties
Mayo and Cork, and the Moderate Home
Rulers. A Dublin dispatch says that neither
Messrs. Davitt, Daly, KUlen nor Brennan,
Irish agitators, indicted for sedition, have
been seriously mentioned as candidates for
Parliament.
The ex-Empress Eugenie has presented
her imperial crown to the Church of Notre
Dame des Victoires, Paris. It is of great

The steamer Gellert, Captain Kuhleween,
from Hamburg, reports that on the 4th inst.
Ebe met the British steamer Syria, in lati
tude 41:35, longitude 59;8S, with her rudder
lost, her stern post and main and discharge-
pipe broken, and entirely unmanageable.
After vain efforts to tow the vessel into
port, and after her Captain, Johnson, had
used every exertion to save her, without
avail, the Syria was abandoned. The Cap
tain and crew were taken on the Gellert and
brought to New York. The Syria’s cargo
consisted of five thousand bales of cotton
and two hundred tons of oil cake.
The sentiment of the Democratic Senato
rial caucus in Washington Is decidedly in
favor of postponing the Spofford-Kellogg
fease until the appropriations bills are pass
ed and other necessary legislation is attend
ed to.
Sing Tan, a native of China, has taken
out naturalization papers in For du Lac,
Wisconsin, and voted at the municipal elec

only one of his nationality in that section.
Tbe preferences of the Boston Radicals
for the Presidential nomination seem to be
for Sherman as first choice with the chances
of Grant and Edmunds about equal for sec
ond choice.
A Berlin correspondent of the London
Times says that Bismarck’s real motive in
resigning was, not that he cared so much
about the imperial stamp tax, as about the
way in which it was shown by that measure
that the three most powerful States—
Prussia, Bavaria and Saxony—can be out
voted by a coalition of the petty States.
He saw in this a great evil, which
he resolved to deal with in its inception.
The Emperor William, replying to Bis
marck’s request to resign, stated that he
was aware of the constitutional difficulties
In the Chancellor’s way, but he declined to
grant the request and left it to the Chancel
lor to submit to him, and afterwards to the
Bundesrath proposals calculated to remove
such constitutional difficulties.
Theodore L. Cuyler, pastor of Lafayette
Avenue Presbyterian Church of Brooklyn,
yesterday sent the following message to
Right Hoc. W. E. Gladstone: “My con
gregation sends hearty congratulations to
the champion of truth, lover of peace and
friend of America.”
A disastrous fire broke out at Dixon, Illi
nois, yesterday, and before it could be
checked inflicted damage to the extent of
*200,000.
One Edward P. Holn, in San Francisco,
yesterday shot his wife in the breast and
himself behind the right ear. He refuses to
state why he shot his wife.
Liberal successes In the English and
Scotch counties are increasing. A Liberal
majority, independent of the Home Rulers,
is now secured. Up to this time there have
been returned 300 Liberals, 191 Conserva
tives and 39 Home Rulers. Charges of in
timidation and undue influence exercised
among Lord Derby’s tenantry are pub
lished.
English journalistic comments upon
the Liberal victory in the Parliamentary-
elections are interesting. The London
Saturday Review says: “The constituen
cies could not have given a more decided
answer to Lord Beaconsfield’s appeal,
but why they have given it nobody can
exactly say.” The Spectator says: “It is
in its effect abroad that the Libera] vic
tory will be most far reaching. Russia
dreads and distrusts certain views of the
Liberal chiefs, especially Mr. Glad
stone’s, far more than she dreads a min
istry that can be coerced into secret com
pacts. But millions of Greeks, Arme
nians and Bulgarians will rejoice at the
prospect of a new career made possible
to them, and their rejoicing will be fee
ble compared with the exultation of our
own millions in India no longer taxed to
death in order that a Premier may pose
as arbiter of the destinies of Central
Asia.”
The Noktii Pole.—Prof. Nordensk
jold, the celebrated explorer, who has
recently returned from his Arctic inves
tigation, and who is now being lionized
in Europe, asserted in an interview with
the Paris correspondent of the New York
Herald “that the North Pole will never
be reached, unless some man begins to
attempt it when he is twenty and con
tinues until he is fifty.” The Professor
is high authority, and he comes to the
above conclusion because he considers
the travelers, who are yet to make the
discovery, “must be familiar with the
peculiarities of the Arctic seas, and fully
that time is necessary to gain the requi
site experience. ”
Savannah’s Boom.
We have not, as yet, learned all the
details of the alliance just definitely
concluded between the Louisville and
Nashville, Western and Atlantic, Geor
gia and Central Railroads, but we have
learned enough to know that the benefits
certain to enure to our city therefrom
are incalculable. When, a short time
since, it was announced tffst an alliance
had been formed between Col. E. W.
Cole, President of the St. Louis, Nash
ville and Chattanooga Road, and the
State and Central lines, it was then con
sidered that Savannah's future prosperity
was assured beyond peradventure, and
under the stimulus of the feeling of con
fidence at that time inspired, our city se
curities advanced materially in value.
A contrast between the present combi
nation, and the one then entered into,
however, will show at a glance that our
prospects are now very decidedly better
than they would have been had that con
tract remained unbroken.
When the Cole combination, or con
tract, was entered into it was reasoned that
Savannah would have a direct connec
tion with one of the great grain marts of
the West, and that in course of time this
would lead to this city becoming the
outport for vast quantities of Western
produce, and, of course, to a large in
crease in our commerce. If this were
true at that time, it is so much more tbe
case now. Under that arrangement,
while we had a connection from the
West to the sea, it was a connection
over only one line of road, and which
was opposed by one of the most
powerful railroad corporations in the
country—the Louisville and Nashville.
So adverse to its interests did the latter
line regard the Cole combination, that
it believed it necessary to break it up at
any cost, and to do so purchased a con
trolling interest in Colonel Cole’s road.j
paying therefor a heavy advance on the
market price of its stock. The result is
that now, instead of having one Single
connection, with only one Western grain
depot, we have direct connection with
St. Louis, Louisville, and all points tribu
tary to them. In other words, we not
only will now enjoy all the benefits
of the Cole combination, but we have
that combination vastly strengthened
and increased, while the opposition of the
Louisville and Nashville is not only re
moved, but that corporation (whose
stock is worth in New York about 160)
is backing up and endorsing the system.
And besides this, we have as feeders to
our city the two finest roads in Georgia,
thereby giving us really the advantages
of a double track between Atlanta and
Millen.
It will thu3 be seen that Savannah
must speedily become the entrepot for
much of the vast grain and other pro
ducts of the West which will be shipped
(1) from St. Louis and Louisville, either
via the Western and Atlantic road from
Atlanta over the Central to Savannah,
or (2) over the Western and Atlantic to
Atlanta, and from thence over the Geor
gia road via Augusta, and thence over
the Central to Savannah (a route only
three miles longer than the first named),
or (3) via the Louisville and Nashville to
Montgomery, Alabama, and from thence
via the Montgomery and Eufaula and
the Southwestern lines—both controlled
by the Central—to Macon, and from
thence again over the Central to Savan
nah.
It is evident, therefore, that it requires
no stretch of the imagination to predict
a brilliant future for our great Georgia
seaport, and we have every reason to be
lieve that when the details of the present
combination are officially promulgated,
they will be seen to promise even
greater advantages to our city than
those we have hinted at. We have,
therefore, every right to indulge
in exultation over Savannah’s boom if we
will; and, without indulging in any
thing which even savors of froth and
gush, our people can certainly view the
prospect ahead with feelings of confi
dence and satisfaction.
“John Brown and William Mahone.”
We received some days since from
Richmond, Virginia, a little political
tract bearing the above heading. Its
title conveys a pretty fair idea of its
contents. In brief it takes the ground
that as old John Brown was the fore
runner of Lincoln and the war of ’61,
so William Mahone is the forerunner of
Grant and war hereafter. It reasons that
Mahone will do all he can to sell out the
State of Virginia to Grant in November:
that he will be successful; that Grant
will be reelected; that he will be
come dictator; a fearful civil war be
tween the friends of the republic and the
fi iends and adherents of the empire will
ensue, and that the South, true to its
States rights principles will, in this con
test, be found battling agaiDst ti e em
pire. The finale of all which, accord
ing to the prediction, will be the suc
cess of the Imperialists, backed by
the money power of the North,
while the Republicans, including the
entire South, will be beaten, impover
ished and ruined. This dolorous pamph
let is signed “The Shade of Edmund
Ruffin,” and comes to us, therefore,
as a prophetic warning from the
grave. We recognize as its author,
however, a gentleman well known
to the literary world, especially
in the South. He is a confirmed dyspep
tic, and while we entertain for him the
kindest feelings personally, he will p:
don us for hoping that when he, in the
character of Edmund Ruffin’s spirit
penned his plausible and well written
prophecy, he was laboring under a se
vere attack of the disease to which he is
sometimes a martyr.
We are inclined to take this view of
the matter for the simple reason that,
though so far from the scene, we do
not believe Mahone or any one else can
carry Virginia for Grant. Since the civil
war Virginia has been oppressed with
poverty. She was the main battleground
during the contest, and as such was
subjected to all the horrors and de
vastations of war. Besides being
thus impoverished, she emerged from the
conflict burdened to the earth with a well
nigh overwhelming debt of more than
$30,000,000. In consequence, with
large proportion of her population,
has for years been one constant struggle
for bare subsistence. All their ener
gies had to be devoted to this one end
and there was no time, inclination or op
portunity for this class of her citizens to
indulge in the science of politics, or to
discuss finances. It is. therefore, not to
be wondered at. that when Mahone,
with his military prestige, came to these
people and told them that if they
would cast their votes as he desired they
would be relieved of a large proportion
of their burdens of taxation, they listen
ed to the voice of the tempter, and he
secured enough white votes to enable
him, with the aid of the Radical and the
negro vote, to carry the State for repu
diation.
When it comes to voting for Grant
however, the case will be very different.
There is not a man in Virginia, or any
other Southern State, who does not re
cognize in Grant the leader and person!
fication of Radicalism, the defender of
carpetbagism and bayonet rule, and the
man who, of all others, sought to
destroy and trample upon the rights
and liberties of the Southern peo
ple. We opine, therefore, that it will
be rather a difficult matter for
Mahone to induce aDy portion of the
heretofore Democratic population of Vir
ginia to vote for the peripatetic ex-Presi
dent, and hence we believe that in its
gloomy predictions the shade of Ed
mund Ruffin will not prove “an hones'
ghost.” If, however, William Mahone
attempts to play the part of a modern
John Brown in Virginia, he will richly
deserve his prototype’s fate.
Important ip True.—A Cincinnati
correspondent of the Washington Sunday
Herald imparts this important informa
tion. He says; "For months past lead
ing papers in Kentucky, Georgia and
other Southern Stales have been liberally
compensated for services rendered in the
interest of the Tildcn boom. Impecunious
publishers rush off to New York, tap
‘Uncle Samuel's’ bar’l of money, and
come home enthusiasts for tbe Sage of
Gramercy Park. ’’
Mr. Tildcn's Reported Retirement.
The New York Star of Tuesday con
tained a Washington dispatch to the
effect that after a conference with his
friends and a number of prominent phy
sicians, Mr. Tilden had formally with
drawn as a candidate for the Presidency,
and had named as his choice Judge
Payne, of Ohio. This story caused some
stir in political circles in New A’ork. Mr.
Tilden’s friends ridiculed it as an exceed
ingly gauzy yarn, while his opponents
professed to believe it. A press reporter
sought an interview with Mr. Tilden,
but was informed that he was too busy
to be seen. Capt. Rynders called and
was admitted, and had an interview with
Mr. Tilden. When the Captain was
afterwards approached by a reporter he
said:
‘I know all about the story,and talked
with Mr. Tilden about it an Lour ago.
There is not a bit of truth in it from the
beginning to the end. Mr. Tiiden is better
in health than he has been for years. He
has not been examined by any doctor or
doctors. There has been no conference
between him and his political frieDds
about his withdrawal, and he has not
said to any one that he is not a candi
date. I know whereof I speak, since
my information comes direct from Mr.
Tilden.”
The Rev. Mr. Hayden, who was re
cently tried for murder and escaped con
vlction by the failure of the jury to agree
upon a verdict, was announced recentiy
to lecture in the Methodist Episcopal
Church at Northport, Suffolk county,
N. Y. When the people arrived at the
church they were surprised to find it
closed. It was found that the trustee
had refused to allow the church to be
opened.
There seems to be no doubt that the
Vermont delegation to Cincinnati will be
solid for Hancock, although uninstruct
ed. The Hancock strength in the con
vention will not be at all sectional. At
present the prospect is that he will be
supported from New England and the
Gulf and Middle States, though not by
solid Slate delegations, except in the
case of Vermont, and perhaps Pennsyl
vania.
Mr. Hayes on Tuesday withdrew, at his
own request, the nomination of C. D.
Brigham to be Surveyor General of
Florida.
Secretary Sherman’s platform is an
nounced in a late letter to a New A’ork
correspondent, and emphasized in his
speech at Mansfield, Ohio, is curt, yet
means much. It has but three planks:
A national free public school system, the
enforcement of civil and political rights
by the power of the National Govern
ment, and a sound national currency,
based upon coin or notes redeemable in
coin. Here, remarks the Baltimore San,
with truth, are three propositions, two
of which, if consummated, will over
throw the rights of States to manage
their domestic concerns in matters of
vital importance. A national school
system implies the absolute subversion
of the system of public instruction now
pursued in every State and every city,
and the substitution for it of schools
maintained by Congressional taxation
and appropriations ot national money.
The second proposition involves the
complete surrender to Congress and the
Federal executive and judiciary of all
control over all elections, State and Fed
eral. Alongside of these views those of
Gen. Grant upon the subject are tame
and subdued.
The Senate on Monday sat down upon
Mr. Hayes in the most crushing and em
phatic manner. Some days ago Mr.
Hayes nominated Thomas H. Sherwood
to be census supervisor of the First
Pennsylvania district and the nomina
tion was rejected by the Senate. On
Monday the persistent Mr. Hayes again
sent in Sherwood’s name and it was
again rejected, unanimously, without a
word of debate or explanation and with
out a roll call or division.
Elevated Railroads ts. Private Prop
erty Holders.
The New Y’ork elevated roads are en
countering an unexpected trouble. It is
pretty generally known that property
aloDg the lines of these roads has been
more or less injured by them, and that
rcsidenls have made, from time to time,
serious complaints of the noise created in
working the roads, and of their interfer
ence with the privacy of famil ies. The ob.
jections were met by the declaration that
the public utility of such roads more than
counterbalanced individual annoyances.
There was no attempt, therefore, to bring
either of the roads before the courts until
Dr. Caro, a property owner, entered t
suit for damages against the Mctropoli
tan road on the ground that it interfered
with his light and air. The company
demurred that the causes assigned
his suit for damages were not of
a kind for which compensation
was demandable, and the referee
so held. Against thi* decision of
the referee Dr. Caro appealed to
the Superior Court, which has just re
versed tbe decision of the referee. The
court holds that the complaint does show
a cause of action. Judge Curtis, in con
sidering the question, held that the in
troduction into the plaintiff's premises
of noxious gas is a violation of hie right
of domain, and is not justified by tbe
legislative grants to the elevated rail
road companies, or necessarily incident
to their enjoyment of those grants.
Judge Speir took broader ground. He
decided that the statutes effectually pro
tect the company against being sued as a
public nuisance on account of its fee in
the streets, but not against claims for
private damages arising from injuries to
the adjacent property holder. The latter
is entitled to be indemnified and compen
sated, either by the public or by the
company drawing profit from the im
provement, for any loss or damage he
may suffer. "In other words,” it is said
“the court decide that an elevated rail
road structure, and its use in a narrow
street, if it damage a householder’s light
and air, can become as much an element
for damage as if it ran over his real es
tate.” The Metropolitan Elevated Rail
road Company, which is primarily affect
ed by this decision, will take the case for
final action to the Court of Appeals.
Being regarded as a test case, the result
is looked for with considerable anxiety.
If, on appeal, the decision of the Supe
rior Court should be affirmed, it will
naturally be followed by many other
claims for damages that wiil tend mate
rialiy to reduce the market value of the
heavily watered stock of the elevated
roads.
Religions Intolerance in Germany.
Rev. Dr. Louis Nippert, who has been
acting as a Methodist missionary
Germany, delivered a lecture in Cincin
nati Wednesday evening, in which he
gave some surprising information about
the difficulties that Protestant ministers
have to contend with in that Protestant
and evangelical country. The general
impression is that freedom of religion
prevails in Germany, or, at least, that
there is no persecution. But Dr. Nip-
pert presents a very different view of
the actual facts. Special opposition
was met in Saxony, and the missionaries
were driven out of the kingdom of Han
over. Religious meetings held outside
the State Church were forbidden. It
was held that it was just as improper for
an unauthorized person to preach as
would be for an unauthorized person to
perform the duties of a magistrate.
Missionaries were often mobbed by
the populace, and when they ap
pealed to the government for
protection, they were told to
leave the country. The women members
of the Methodist Church would hold sew
ing meetings at which they would sing
hymns. When the authorities found
out they forbade them siDging hymns.
At Wurtcmburg, two of Dr. Nippert'
uncles were imprisoned for conducting
religious services. Sunday schools were
forbidden. A man might lecture, but
he could not preach. They could not
have singing, nor pronounce the benedic
tion, although Dr. Nippert ventured to
say ‘ ‘amen” at the end of the lecture.
Iu Prussia he had a better time, though
he was subject to frequent denuncia
lions, and, sometimes, arrests by the
authorities of the established ebureb
The government allows them to preach
sing and pray, provided they first notify
the police, when an officer would be on
hand to see that they were not conducting
a Socialist meeting under guise of a re
iigious gathering. The chief difficulty
he met with came in the form of con
demnatory resolutions from the synod of
the established church, and the circula
tion of pamphlets against Methodism
The established church. Dr. Nippert said
is a Christian body, and many of its pat
rons are pious men, but it does not reach
tbe masses, the church attendance being
only five per cent in cities and fifteen
per cent in the country.
Tariff Reform in Congress.
The reason why the Committee on
Ways and Means of the House cf Repre
sentatives has never been able to bring
Itself up to the scratch of reporting a
tariff bill of any sort whatever was made
plain on Monday, when the House de
clared itself in favor of a modified tariff
by the decisive vote of 113 to 80. The
question was on suspending the rules in
order to pass the bill lately introduced
by Mr. Townshend, of Illinois, to place
type, printing paper and chemicals and
materials used in the manufacture of
paper on the free list. The majority
was not sufficient to suspend the rules
and get Mr. Townshend's hill before
tbe House, but it was large enough
to have passed the bill if it
had been reported from the committee,
and large enough, also, to thoroughly
alarm the protectionists. These have
agreed to stand or fall together, and if
paper and paper pulp had been put upon
the free list, there would have been a
disastrous break in the serried ranks of
monopoly. Only thirteen Democrats
voted against Mr. Townshend's motion,
which received the support of fifteen
Republicans and all the Grc-enbackers
save one. It is conceded that Mr. Fer
nando Wood’s bill to place wood pulp
on the free list will receive a two thirds
vote if offered on the first Monday in
May, which is the earliest date, under
the new rules, when such biffs can be
put on their passage through suspension
of the rules.
The Irish Land System.—Mr. James
Redpath’s letters from Ireland to the
New York Tribune, since he was deputed
by that paper to examine into the causes
which led to the present distress, have
thrown a flood of light on affairs in that
country. In his last letter he shows how
the exactions of landlords have im
poverishea the people. No one in Ameri
ca, he writes, unless he is of Irish birth
or ancestry, can adequately comprehend
the position of landlord and tenant in
the west of Ireland. Protestant as he is,
he asserts that the famous contrast that
Macaulay draws as to the relative civili
zation of Protestant and Catholic coun
tries, illustrating the same by the dif
ference that is seen in the Protestant and
Catholic provinces in Ireland, will not
stand before the slightest investigation,
if honestly made, for he says “ it is not
a question of faith, but of leases.” In
the one section the tenant has a fixity of
tenure, while in the other he has been
and is to-day a tenant at will, “ and
there is neither sympathy felt for him as
a man, nor pity shown to him as a ten
ant by his landlord. ”
THE SUPREME COURT.
Comment on Sherman's Allusion to
That Kodf.
A Washington special says: “The part
of Sherman's Mansfield speech which
causes most comment among Democrats
is that in which he says the chief issue
in the coming campaign is as to the com
plexion of the United States Supreme
Court. It has long been felt here, espe
cially by those who are brought into so
cial and personal relations with the Su
preme Judges, that the court has recent
ly come to be as much of a political body
as either house of Congress. The coun
try is familiar with the causes of
this feeling, in which appear on the sur
face the packing of the court on the
legal tender decision, its connection
with the electoral count, etc. Its recent
decisions changing in many respects
what had already been considered the
well-established relations of the State
and Federal governments have been gen
erally recognized as the natural product
of a court which has been debarred by
both the appointing -and legislative
powers of the government People here
who ere acquainted with the individual
Judges have stiil further reason for
doubting the judicial integrity of the
highest tribunal in the country. They
know that several of the Judges are a-
much concerned m the distribution of
patronage as any Senator or Repre
sentative who has the ear of the
administration. Decisions get out, too,
before they are delivered, as was the
case in the Missouri Pacific Railroad
against Ketchum. All these things con
firm the general impression that the
court is moved more by political consid
erations than by considerations of jus
tice. Prominent Democrats here say that
Mr. Sherman, in his Mansfield speech,
has stripped off whatever there was of
disguise, and has boldly asserted that the
Hepuolican party must see to it that the
Supreme Court remains Republican for
the purpose of rendering partisan decis
ions on the partisan legislation which has
been effected by Republican Congresses.
They think that the country will hardly
sustain Sherman or his party associates
in this view of the functions of the Su
preme Court of the United States.”

The New Process Sugar.
In discussions of the sugar question
for several years past much has been said
of "glucose,” or the saccharine princi
ple contained in Indian com, and its use
in adulterating syrups. From time to
time the claim has also been advanced
that it is possible to make crystallized
sugar from glucose. It is certain that
beautiful syrup can be made from corn,
but thus far almoat every attempt has re
sulted in bitter disappointment because
of the tendency of the compound to
sour. The New Y’ork Journal of Com
merce, in discussing the matter, says:
Recently the glucose syrup made by
treating com with sulphuric acid after
an improved process has been success
fully used for cheapening and beautify
ing the ordinary sugar-house syrup. It
could be bought for 3f cents a pound,
and thus, while costing far less than the
syrup from cane sugar, added greatly to
the appearance of the mixture. The
large refiners have refused to use it, but
have sold their own syrup to parties who
have added the glucose and obtained
large trade for it all over the country.
While thus used for what we call the
“adulteration” of syrup, efforts have
been constantly directed to produce the
glucose in such a form that it can be
mixed with sugar. We do not believe
that it can ever be made into genuine
sugar crystals; but it has been turned
into a dry, granulated form, the grains
being little round pellets like minute
homceopathic pills. This product costs
about 4 cents a pound. For some time
a number of persons have been purchas
ing the lower grades of refined
sugars, known as soft yellow or coffee
ugars, and adding from 15 to 25 perl
cent, of the glucose, returning the mix*
lure to the market. The success of the
experiment is twofold: the product is
cheapened, while its appearance is greatly
improved. A soft yellow sugar, costiug
74 to 7 j cents a pound, has received a
mixture of about one-fifth of white glu
cose costing 4 cents, and has been sold
as soft yellow of a higher grade at
cents. The combination has cost a half
or five-eighths of a cent leas than the soft
yellow, and has sold at three fourths of
i cent more. The regular refiners have
thus been placed in a dilemma. To be
honest, they must see their trade, or at
least a portion of its legitimate profits,
taken away from them, or they must go
into the mixing business on their own
recount. They feel that they cannot do
the latter without lettiDg the public into
the secret, and thus compelling the buy
ers to share in the new respons-bility.
Interview in Ifew York Herald.
It probably maybe a question that can
be finally settled whether this grape sugar
is prejudicial to health, but there is no
doubt that in table syrup, for example,
the glucose liquor is thirty per cent, be
low the standard value. If this adultera
tion is not checked we shall not know
where we stand as sugar refiners, for the
jobber will sell the new process sugar for
caue sugar, and the retailer will adulter
ate it again, and we shall, in effect, have
nothing sold but grape sugar. Even if
it is innocuous to the public, it is a fraud
upon the purchaser, who pays for cane
sugar and does not get it.
OF THE DEMOCRATIC SENATORIAL
CAUCUS.
Washington, April 8.—The Democratic
Senatorial caucus resumed Its deliberation!
this afternoon upon the adjournment of the
Senate and devoted another hour to a dis
cussiou of the future order of business
was found that a decided majority of the
Senators present were in favor of going on
with the appropriation bills and Geneva
award bill, and of leaving the Spofford
Kellogg case to fake its chances after
these more important matters shall have
been disposed of. A considerable num
ber of Senators explicitly said that
the Kellogg-Spofford case ought
to go over until next session, because, irre
spective of partisan comments which might
be made upon it during the fall campaign
its present consideration would, in their
opinion, tend to prolong this session far
into the summer. The merits of the con

PARLIAMENTARY CONTESTS IN IRELAND—
IMPERIAL GIFT FROM EUGENIE.
London, April 8.—It is 6tated that Charles
S. Parnell will retain his eeat for Cork city,
for which he has been returned in conjunc
tion with Mr. John Daly. Major A. Gor
man, Home Ruler, who was defeated for
Waterford city, will stand as a candidate
for Meath county, for which constituency
Mr. Parnell had been nominated.
Bitter contests are waging in counties
Mayo and Cork, where Mr. Parnell’s eandi
dates, brought forward at the last moment,
are opposing Moderate Home Rulers. The
Parnellites already elected for other con
stituencies are stumping these counties, and
inflammatory placards are being distributed
bitterly attacking the Moderates.
A dispatch from Dublin to the Daily News
says: “Neither Messrs. Davitt, Daly, Killen
nor Brennan, Irish agitators,.indicted for se
dition, are likely to be returned to Parlia
ment. Neither of them have ever been se
riously proposed as candidates.”

The Kentucky Legislature has tried to

the South, by making it a misdemeanor
for any person to use abusive or insult
ing language in the presence of another
for the purpose of provoking an assault.
Stanley on the Congo.—Stanley,
the explorer, is having a hard time on
the CoDgo, but is slowly progressing.
His first station is Owl, one hundred and
fifty miles from the coast, but the diffi
culties are so great that Father Carrie
thinks it will take years before the ter
mination of the terrible chain of moun
tains can be reached, and the second sta
tion established at Stanley Pool, two
hundred miles distant. Mr. Stanley’s
intention is to ascend the Congo to the
Lual.iba, where he hopes to find his Arat
friend, Tibu Tib. Then he will explore
the western part of the Congo, as well as
the country on its two banks, attempting
at the same time to attract the ivory
trade to Mboina.
A “new” cereal, said to be more nu
tritious than either corn, oats or rye, is
finding much favor in Western Kansas
and New Mexico. It is called Egyptian
corn, or pampas rice, and was originally
brought from Southern Itussia.- Thus
far it has been unaffected by drought,
worms, grasshoppers and other pests,
and it can be cultivated with less care
than almost any other grain. There is
doubtless some exaggeration in the ac
counts given of this cereal, hut such a
mass of favorable testimony from such a
variety of sources as this candidate for
public favor inspires could hardly be
commanded by an article of merely or
dinary merit
The Rhine Wine Market.—Advices
from Mayence to March 17 show that
the auction sales at that place were very
successful. Of fifty-seven pieces offer
ed, only one was withdrawn. The aver
age price obtained was five hundred
marks per atueck for Hockheimer. Elo-
heimer ’76 ranged from six hundred and
forty-five to seven hundred and fifty five
marks; Bodcnheimer nine hundred and
ten to eight hundred and ninety marks.
The auction sales at Bingen were equally
well attended, and only six out of seven
ty-one numbers withdrawn.
The paper monopolists have rather
overdone the business of forcing up the
price of paper. The proprietor of the
Chicago limes has headed a revolt against
the monopoly rule, and has closed a con
tract with a Montreal firm for one thou
sand tons of printing paper. He finds it
cheaper, or at any rate preferable, to pay
freight and duties on Canadian paper
rather than submit to the prices charged
by the combination which holds the
American market by the throat.
If the Czar’s domain were not rent
with civil discord, the defeat of BeaconB-
field would be a signal for Russia to pre
pare for a fresh onslaught on the hated
Turk. But Alexander is too much pressed
with domestic strife to plunge into a for
eign war likely to set all Europe ablaze.
In addition, the Czar is likely to find
in Gladstone all that Beaconsfield was—
and more.
The Depression of Labor.
The report of the special committee of
the House on the depression of labor, of
which Hon. Hendrich B. Wright, of
Pennsylvania, Is Chairman, has been
submitted to the House, but has not yet
been printed. The report shows that
there are 160,000 Chinamen west of the
Sierra Nevadas, besides from 1,500 to
2,500 Chinese women, who are slaves.
These people—who are nearly all coolies,
and practically belong to the six compa
nies—pay less taxes than the Chinese
criminal expenses amount to, and send
$100,000 a day to $11,000,000 per month
or $40,000,000 a year to China. It is es
timated in the report that the money paid
them in thirty years has reached the round
sum of $600,000,000; aDd yet they buy
no land and spend no money, except for
a little coarse food, because they get
their rice from China. The testimony
shows that they have ruined shoemaking,
shirtmaking and the manufacture of ci
gars, harness, etc., and have almost driven
out of employment all white plasterers,
miners, farm hands and other laborers.
In fact, scarcely a trade, occupation or
industry has escaped the blight of their
presence; and white men testify that
they are being reduced to beggary, and
will have to leave the Pacific coast unless
something is speedily done by the gov
ernment. The report concludes with a
resolution that the President tie request
ed by Congress to inform the Chinese
Government that it is the desire of the
United States Government to abrogate
and annul the clauses of the treaties be
tween the two countries that permit
emigration.
The inebriating cup made a sorry scene
in a Stamford, Ky., colored meeting.
One of the elders was called upon to lead
in prayer. He compiled, and if a little
incoherent in his supplications, made up
for it in fervency and duration, for after
twenty-five minutes he was still ascending
in eloquence, and, as the local chronicle
has it, "Down on his knees, rocking
backward and forward, his eyes tightly
shut and his mouth open, he seemed like
a solution of the vexed question of per
petual motion.” Finally, the preacher,
in despair, struck up a familiar hymn,
and made a motion to the congregation
to join in. The elder soon subsided, and
on investigation his undue ecstacy was
traced to strong drink.

The Florid# Canal.
JVetc Orleans Times.
The proposed ship canal across the
northern end of the peninsula of Florida
is just now attracting a great deal of at
tention. It has been talked of for many
years, but it is only lately that it has been
discussed in tbe way that leads to the be
lief that the time is not for distant when
its construction will be undertaken. The
demand for it is becoming more and
more imperative. The trade between
the ports of the Gulf of Mexico and
ports on the Atlantic coast, and, also,
between the Gulf ports and Europe has
increased rapidly, and now that the
mouth of the Mississippi river is open it
promises to assume wonderful propor
tions, since the products of the great
Mississippi valley will undoubtedly seek
the markets of the world by way of the
river. There are many reasons which
might be properly advanced for the con
struction of the Florida canal, but there
are two which alone are sufficient to jus
tify the work. The distance saved from
New Orleans is between eight hundred
and a thousand mih-6, and from Mobile,
St. Marks and Pensacola it is even
greater. From Mexican norts and Ha
vana it is less. Tukmg New Orleans,
for example, the canal would save steam
ers in a round trip five days, and sailing
vessels sixteen days. As the expenses
of the average steamer are about four
hundred dollars a day, and as the num
ber of steamers and other vessels which
would be accommodated is many
thousands, and will, in all probability,
be doubled in a few years, some idea can
be formed of the immense saving which
would be effected by the canal. That is
one reason. The other, is the perils to
which vessels are subjected in passing
through the Florida strait and the dan
gerous waters of tbe Antilles. There are
no moreldangerous waters, which are nav
igated by ships, in the world. The aver
age annual loss of property amounts
to millions of dollars, and the loss of
life is very large. These dangers would
be avoided if there were a canal as pro
posed. The insurance on ships and car
goes passing around the Florida reefs
and through the waters of the Antilles
is now very heavy. A canal would ef
feet a saving in this respect of at least
twenty five per cent. The cost of the canal
has been estimated at from $7,000,000 to
$20,000,000. Perhaps the real cost would
be found between these two estimates.
Even at the latter figures, would not the
canal pay? The Suez canal, which cost
$95 ,000,000, pays largely. Indeed, so
valuable is the stock that it commands a
very large premium. Those who are
well qualified to give an opinion of the
amount of tonnage which would pass
through the canal do not hesitate to place
it at four times the amount which passes
through the Suez canal. The canal,
therefore, is not only a commercial neces
sity, hut it is an enterprise which promi
ses to yield a splendid return on the
amount required to construct it.
