David Davis, In Hartford the other day when Blaine was speaking be said: “Boston is the h une of—" "Mulligan, ’’ shouted a sharp Democrat who lacked about six years of 1* mg old enough to vote. Mr. Blaine did not thank him for the interruption. It is not just to blame the baby for the recent step taken by Hon. David Davis in getting off the fence on the Republican side. It was not so much his interest in the infant industries of the country as the bar!ei wire nature of the fence he sat The skin and plumage of the English span ows, properly dressed and dyed, makes a most elegant decoration for la dies* hats and bonnets.

Chinese Gor don. an.l he could not have issued the stuff had be not found a printing office at Khartoum. It is to tie hoped that he will never hereafter underestimate the power of the press. Sixty-odd prominent Independent and UepuMiean newspapers in the Northern States which supported Garfield are now strongly opposed to Blaine and in favor of Cleveland. Not only straws, but very larg* trees sometimes show which wav the wind blows. The New York Nun is enjoying the si lence of the great objector, Mr. Holman, of Indiana, during the campaign, and has come to the conclusion that he Is soured or that some other calamity has befallen him. No doubt of it. He has had a bad ease of Nun-stroke. Lieut, (irwly’s book is soon to bo issuiil simultaneously in this country anti Europe. There is no doubt he will make a fortune out of it, and his sufferings will in the future be not so much regarded with feelings of sympathy or looked upon as available capital. Gen. Butler when in New York the other day was closeted for three hours with the eminent Republican corruption ist, John L Davenport. They were doubt less fixing the details for carrying out the agreement said to have been made be tween Butler and Chandler at the opening of the campaign. Now that the colored man is to be ad mitted to the weather department there will no doubt be a great improvement in the “indication" service. The average tegro is a pretty good barometer, and can tell very near when its going to rain or blow hard by the kink of his hair and the crank of his knees. Nashville boasts that it enters upon the fiscal year beginning Oct. 1 without owing ©ae dollar of indebtedness. A few years ago the citv was almost bankrupt—the result of Republican municipal rule, its present solid condition is due to econom ical IVemocratie government and the won derful growth of the city. Connecticut votes upon the question of having biennial sessions ot the Legisla ture next Mondav. and some of the poli ticians of that State make the extrava gant assertion that the doing away with annual sessions will save SIOO,OOO a rear. The Connecticut people are deluded. They would do better just to jog along in the ©ld fashioned manner. The receiver of Grant & Ward has ob tained permission from the court to sue persons who received money from the firm without consideration. If the senior member of the concern should be sued for the fictitious profits he drew, no doubt a very distinguished citizen would soon be applying for the benefit* of the insolvency laws, or passing around the hat again among his admirers. Mr. Blame is said to have advised the Republic an managers that every doilar ©pent on campaign south of Mason and Dixon's line would be wasted: hence the demands of Mahone and the balance ©f the Southern Republicans for funds have not been met. Now, Mr. Blaine is ■wise on this subject, butit does look cruel to the Southern strikers who are so nearly famished for the want of “soap.” Sir Moses Montefiore is said to be in ex cellent health and in fine condition to en joy the celebration of the completion of the one hundredth year of his life by the Jews in every part of the world. Mag nificent testimonials have been prepared in many places to be forwarded to the great philanthropist, and the celebration of his birthday, which takes place Oct- 27, will he a great event of the age. In some places benevolent societies are founding institutions to he named in honor of Sir Tariff Krfurm In Ihe Went. j r 3 mnuberof the Western States —Wisconsin. Minnesota. Michigan. lowa and Indiana—the tariff i# the Uadmg it i not pressed by the Republi cans. Thev would rather say uoth thing about it. The Democrats are mak ing it the leading feature of thecampsign. All ot tb.se states are largely agricul tural and the people regard the present tar ff as extremely burdensome to them. strong is the sentiment in favor oi tariff reform that a very large percentage the Republicans are tariff reformers. At the l*>t session of Congress all the K publican C-ngnes*men Imm Minnesota, except one. voted f *r the Morrison bill. In tact. Minnesota is practically solid against the present tariff. In Wisconsin there are about 15,W vudintTiu voter*. Almost to a man they have voted witn the Republicans. It is believed that a majority of them at the coming election will vote with the Democrats. Taey are beginning to uc■ derstand that the protective tariff. w hie. is sustained t.v the Republican party, is to their interests, and. hence they lowing h -nlity to the Republican party. In Indiana the situation is peculiar. At !ea; half • f the manufacturers of Ir , .tisat uis are oj:-n advocates of a reduc ti n of the tariff. Their eyes have beer, ;--nt l. they say. to the necessity of a wider market f r the products of Ameri can tact. ries. In all of the above nen t red ctates hundred* of thousands of and uroents that are calculated to show the lien- fits which will accrue to farmers and w.-rkicirmen from a reduction of the tariff have been scattered, and they are raving a very marked effect. The Republicans are doing what they car. !" mt- 1 the tariff issue in i -alitit s wh< re they think they have some chance of making converts, or of holding on I*' those who aate alwajs acted with them. But in most localities they do not under take t talk protection. They avoid the tariff altogether and endeavor to make a : canvass on other issues. Th- I> mocrat# are certain to show im mense gain* in the States named, and they may carry at least two of them. They are all classed as Republican Stat s with the exception of Indiana, wbieb is ' classed as doubtful, and if none of them ; is added to the I*emoeratic column this I fail it is certain that seui- of them will *? added before another Presidential elec -1 t n. The tariff reform sentiment is re markably strong in the West ami it is i growing vigorously. The Election. The election throughout the State yes tnlay was very quiet. There was no ex citement and no enthusiasm. There was n -thing to cause either. There was no opposition to the state ticket, and the con tests lor the Legislature, except in a very few l-xalities, amounted to very little. In this county oniy about half of the reg iste-red vote was cast, and tie indications are that not more than a third of the vole of the state was polled. Of course the Legislature in both branch es will be overwhelmingly Democratic. In thi* Senatorial district there is r.o doubt about the election of the Democratic candidate for Senator. The returns from Bryan and Effingham have not yet been received, but toe ic-j-ort from one precinct in Brvan shows that toe vote was very light. The Democratic candidates for Representatives in this county were elected by a large majority. It is to be regretted that a larger vote was not cast in the State. A large vote would have been encouraging to Democrats in the important October states—Ohio and West Virginia. Belva Ann’s Invitation. Mrs. Belva A. Lockwood, the Presi dential candidate of the woman suffrag ists. has given birth to an idea which she has utilized to firing herstlf into more gt-neral notice. Candidate L ickwood re gards with great concern the personali ties w ith which the campaign is marked, and she is sad. If she cannot be elected l*r< sident she thinks that she can do some good by playing the part of peace-maker, bhe wants all the candidates £o meet her in conference at Wheeling, Va., some day soon for the purpose of seeing if some thing cannot tie done to “soften the as perities of the campaign.” It is probable thai candidate Lockwood did not conceive this idea of a conference of the ■ andidates without assistance. The meeting of the three Emperors at niwiee lately doubtless suggested it to her. If the Li*a could be made practical the conference would he the feature of this rt markable campaign. Cleveland, Blaine, Butler. St. John, Ellsworth ar.d Lockwood would all be there. What a gathering that would be! Of course candidate Lockwood, as the originator of the scheme, would direct the ceremonies. Doubtless she would lecture the assembled standard bearers on the folly of relying on scandals for success, and would wind up by advis ing them all to withdraw in her favor as the one candidate against whom no scan dalous word has been uttered, it is hardly proliatile that the other standard bearers will accept the charming Belva Ann’s in vitation. They are old enough now to know that the smile that may appear the most attractive may be the smile of a siren. Lmi-iana'B Militia. There isn't as much enthusiasm in mili tary matters in New Orleans as there was a few years ago. Members of military or ganizations there find that there is a heavy drain on their pockets and great interfer ence with their occupations without com pensating advantages, only pride In their companies have kept many of the most influential members from resigning. The break-up in the militia of ihe State, however, has begun, and it is not easy to see where it will end. On last Friday night the Louisiana Field Artillery, in some respects the finest regiment in the service of the State, was mustered out and has ceased to exist. The cause of this action ot the regiment was the in ability of the members of the command to discharge the duties of their various call ings and occupations and at the same time to comply with the requirements ol the State. Last summer there was a po litical disturbance in the parish of New Iberia. A lot of officials refused to turn over the office* they held to those newly elected, and the Louisiana Field Artillery was ordered to go to the parish and in stall those declared to have been elected. The regiment was gone more than a week. Of course there was great complaint among employers, and the business inter ests of some of the members suffered. That experience settled the fate of the regiment. Another famous command, the Wash ington Artillery, has appealed to the Governor to be relieved from all political duty. It is said that if the appeal is re fused that veteran corps will ask to be mustered out. Many of the members are leading business men and they cannot risk being called awav from their busi ness at a moment’s notice to be gone, perhaps, a week or more. In Louisiana the State does very little for the militia, and the militia, therefore, is not disposed to make great sacrifices for the State. Mr. Blaine cannot be induced to begin another libel suit under any circum stances. The Harrisburg. Pa., Patriot man who published the statement that Wm. H. Kemble had shown two checks, of |7,500 each, which he had paid Blaine when Speaker to make a certain ruling, couldn't get the plumed knight to prose cute him. He was very anxious to get the evidence in the case in legal form, and so got a Democratic friend to prosecute him, and proceeded to take testimony in the case. Blaine's friends at once tried, through the District Attorney, to put an end to the proceeding and to pre vent the testimony from being taken. They were evidently afraid to go to the bottom of the matter. Mrs. Marietta L. Stow, of California, has very patriotically nominated herself to run for Vice President on the Lock wood ticket, and the equal rights party is sending out campaign documents in the most approved sty le. The party is also soliciting contributions in a way that •hows that an aggressive campaign has been determined upon. The OUI Grader* Mary of the ablest leaders of the Re publican party are doing nothing to assist Biaine. Senator Edmunds has refused thus far to utter a word in his behalf, and Cockling, it is thought, will not even vote for him. Grant has called on him. but has done nothing else. The men who did so much to carry New York for Gar field are net conspicuous in this cam paign. . The administration doesn’t appear to be and >icz anrthing to help Blaine, fk-me of the minor official* and a number of clerks are doing political work, but there is none of the excitement and enthusiasm in the departments that then was in l*sd. It is even *id that the President re fused to put a man at the head of tne Treasure who would do tne political work which the Republican managers wanted done. The appointment of Gresham, if reports are to be credited, is not at all satisfactory to the B laineites. With such a lack of interest among prominent Republicans, ar.d with a for midable revolt in the party, it is not easy to understand how H!air.e is to come any where near succeeding. Estimates of New York’s vote five Cleveland a ma jority all the way from 30.000 to 90.000. Ot course, no one can tell what the out come will be, but there are plenty of signs on which to base an opinion. It is doubtless Blaine's intention to concen trate all the strength of the party on New Yor k soon fcs the October elections arc over. He may find, however, that the current of public sentiment is so strongly against him by that time that he will not >ie able to check it. If Blaine has any big guns in reserve he bad better bring them to the front quickly. He needs all the help he can get. A Suggestion to the East Tennessee. Virginia ami Georgia Railroad. The East Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia Railroad train leaves Jesup in the morning, less man two hours before the fast mail from the North arrives at that place, thus depriving the people along the line of that railroad of the bene fit of the improved mail facilities. This train remains at Macon one hour and a halt. If this delay of an hour and a half was at Jesup, and was increased a little, the iteople along the line of the East Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia road could have me benefit of the Northern mail. The additional delay could easily be made up by quickening the schedule between Jesup and Macon. A change of this kind would not conflict with the East Tennessee, '• irgjnia and Georgia Railroad’s Florida business, and would be a great accommodation to the hundreds of merchants and naval stores manufacturers located on the line of that road. It would also increase the travel from Savannah and the North. CURRENT COMMENT.

Cleveland and Blaine Compared. Hartford Ti-neo Rep. .

What high jinks there are in politics to be rare! While Gen. Butler prances up and down the country telling the dear people how the jsxir house yawns for them all, and how the feet of the monopolies—whose fat fees are distending hi o*u pockets— are on their necks, Mr. Blaine is telling the same dear iieople how pros)ierous they are, and how nrees-arv his election i- to perpetuate pros perity. Mr. Blaine and hi- ally ought to have compared notes before they started their partnership in the show business. An Aggressive Peaceful Policy. Louisetue Courier-Journal Dern. . According to one of Mr. Blaine’s organs, the New York Sun, "a tract has been prepared by the National Committee for circulation among the ijuaker-. the Dunkards and other peace loving people, giving the history of Mr. Biatne's action when secretary of .Ntatet in the interest of a Peace Congress to be held in this •■ountry.” It is presumed that this tract is seduiousiy kept from the Irish, who have U-en cultivated in the impress un that the iilumc-d knight is to make Hengland ’owl, ani that O'Donovan llos.-a is to be Secretary of War and Richelieu Hobinson.

It is stated that within forty years be tween 200 and 300 persons have been drowned in Cavuga Lake, to reeover the remains of whom the grappling iron and drag have lieen used invariably in vain. The pai-ers are printing an interesting story about a French -‘electric girl,” whose case M. Arago has been investigating in the presence of the Academy ot Sciences. The storv is true, but it lacks freshness, as Arago died more than thirtv years ago. and the French Lulu Hurst surprised the scientists in 1848. A new material for outside clothing has made its appearance in our shops. It iscalled “Puttoo,” and is an East India article of homespnn which is iutendod for ordinary use. and from its tough texture is particularly adapted for traveling suits. Most of the East India wearing apparel which is familiar to Americans is, like the crinked seersucker, de signed for use in the hottest weather, but “Puttoo" is evidentlv a fabric which is de signed to exclude cold rather thau heat. Twkstv-seves new divorcecases have been placed on the docket of the October term of the Nuperior Court in New Haven, Conn. Seventeen of the plaintiffs are women. Twelve of the causes ascribed are desertion. Most of the cases are of recent marriage, 17 of them extending over a period of )es 3 than 10 years. Several cases are based upou intolerable cruelty of the husband. One of the plaintiffs who asks for relief from matrimony was mar ried on Jan. 25, 1884. G. A. Rooms, of Boston, wade a perilous balloon ascension from North Adams, Mass.. Saturday. The balloon was carried south over Grevlock Mountain, and reached a height of 10,000 feet. Mr. Rogers was s af fected by cold that he conld hardly use his arms or hands when over Grevlock Mountain. The balloon rapidly descended and was in imminent danger of dashing against the rock* on the top of the mountain. Rogers managed to throw out ballast and ascend again. The balloon landed safely in Williamstown. One of the best evidence* that the Ameri can people of this generation live better than their fathers did is found in the steady and rapid growth of the trade in tropical fruits. It is no; many years since the great majority of the people scarcely knew what a banana was, and considered oranges and lemons as luxuries to be afforded only in sickness or on great occasions. Now, not only these, but other tropical fruits, are taught and eaten al most as generally and freely as apples, and the consumption of melons, peacnes. pears, plums and berries is on the same universal and extensive scale. The Illinois State Convention of liquor dealers met in Chicago on Tuesday and dis tinguished itself by decorating its hall with scriptural mottoes, aa per example: Wine that maketh glad the heart of man. Fst a litt'e wine for thy stomach's sake. Come and drink the w.ae that I hare min gled. There is a crying for wine in the streets. The mother'of Jesus said to him, ‘-They have no wine." . Give strong drink to him that is ready to perish and wine to those that be of heavy heart. Mr. Bastlett BrRPETT-CorxTS has pub licly advertised that a fishing vessel belonging to him at Lowestoft, named William Ewart Gladstone, will henceforward be called Will of the Wisp. Of course, savs Labonebere in Truth, he has as good a right to alter the name of a ves*ei belonging to him as he bad to alter his own name. Had I, however, changed my name tor the reasons which led him to change his, 1 should endeavor to attract as little at teni ion to myself as possible, and, above all things, avoid all allusion to names, either of men. women, horses, dogs, or ships. Dans la maisoti d'un pendu, etc. The English newspapers still continue to publish columns of contradictory and imagi native accounts of the results of the inter views between the Emperors. The statement is repeated so often as to be perhaps credible that one great object was to prepare means for gradual disarmament. The despots are saiu to be getting afraid of these vast forces because of the frightful increase of poverty, and therefore of socialism, to which they are leading, and some doubt* are even felt whether in the coming conflict between the throne and revolution the troops could be relied on. The English pessimists draw the conclusion, from the reconciliation of Austria and Russia, that Russia has been induced to abandon her de signs on the Balkans in consideration of her being allowed to do what she likes against England in Central Asia. The population of Constantinople is set down as 600,000, which is mainly guess work. The ravages of cholera and especially Are prevent accurate statistics. There are huge towers from which watchmen keep on the lookout for fire. The terrible conflagrations of the past have been due to the continuous wooden blocks which constitute the main pans of atambool.

Kass.ra Pasha w and Kyoob. Many of the English and European cjtiaens have summer homes up the Bosphorus and come dewu to the city by boat. An audacious thief stole a bar of gold weighing thirty ounces and valued at 1590 from the office of Messrs. Martin A Runyon, bankers and brokers, of No. 100 Broadway. New V rk. a lout 3 o’clock Saturday after nc*T.. The ibefs was carefully planned and boldly executed. Mr. Young, a clerk, was sitting at the e unter. when he was accosted by - well dressed man about 35 years old. with s'blonde moustache, and wearing gold eye glasses. vtho asked to be allowed to look at one of the dcien bars of gold which lay in the window. Mr. 1 oung unsus)ie< :ingly"handed him me bar. The stranger t xamined it care fully and engaged Mr. Young in conversa tion about the precious metal. Suddenly be male a rush for the door, carrying the tsar of gold with him. Mr. Young, though more than at? rears old. sprang over the coun ter and gave chase to the thief. The latter, however, had got a goo-1 start, and ran into the C-ntiseutal Insurance Building and up four flights of sta rs, from the roof oi which he made go-sl bis escape in - o Pine street by means ol a 6re-e#ea}-e. The police say that thev have a clue to the identity of the bold thief, but Messrs. Martin A Runyon fear that thev will never see their bar of gold again. \s an evidence that the rob!-err was planned tieforehand. it was asc-rtsmed that the thief earlier in the morning visited the office of Mr Comstock, on the top floor of the building, in ! aader pretense of having been sent to ex amine the fire-escape ojs ned the scuttle for use as a means of escape in case of need. “A JOLLY-racEP x in, ' says the New York Sun.

The President’s experience—President Ar thur ami a few friends were enjoying the air aud their enzars on the veranda of the White House one afternoon last week when the con versation turned on the experiments recently made by a French physician on the head of a murderer immediately after the execution. “The French scientist is of the opinion that the head retained consciousness for several minutes after it was cut off.” remarkwi G;n. Sheridan, who had read a description of the experiment. “Gentlemen.” said the Presi dent. removing his cigar, “I know a still more singular case. I decapitated, on the sugges tion of Col.

A NEW TLiEYEL,AND SCANDAL.” An AU*sed Conspiracy to Concoct “Coiu paign Documents.” The Buffalo Stv,o ',ay Sites, a Cleveland paper, printed the pillowing Sunday morn as the result of an investigation into an alleged conspiracy to manufacture a scandal to the disadvantage of the Demo cratic candidate for the Presidency : "On Thursday. Sept. 24. the following telegram was sent to the Secretary of the Republican National Committee at New York: -I wrote Mr. Blaine in reference to the campaign documents which affect Cleveland. In Mr. Blaine’s answer to my letter he referred me to your committee. Answer il so important. Signed) Samuel H. Warren, M. D." This case opens up a remarkable history of attempted extortion of money from local politicians: ••The document which l>r. Warren tried to sell to Mr. Blaine reads as follows: To the Buffalo Orphan Asylum. Dr. To board of < leaveiand. from Nov. 1 A to Feb. 10. lsai. thirteen weeks, at 13 50 per week *33 50 By cash 10 00 Due ...... *33 50 “The name on the bill, as will be noted, is that of CleavelaDd. The purisise was to make it appear that Gov. Cleveland was responsible" for the care of some child at the Buffalo Orphan Asylum, and was pay ing its board at the time noted. But it will be seen that the bill has no date and names no debtor. The top of the bill was. in fact, torn off. It had borne another name—the name of the father of a child at that time in the asylum, whose first name was Cleaveland. The following is a copy of a blank bill: Bi fealo. . !■—. Mr. To the Buffalo Orphan Asylum. Dr. To board of from to “The document thus mutilated for the express puiq>ose of founding a scandalous story to defame Gov. Cleveland was the subject of correspondence between I>r. Warren and Mr. Blaine in June. Mr. Blaine held the subject under considera tion three weeks before answering the Doctor’s letter, and ten days after Gcv. Cleveland was nominated notified Warren that be had referred the matter confidentially to the National Committee. Tne Halpin story was sprung first, but the effect reacted and the committee held off, while the Doctor tried to peddle the story to the local Democrats. They re fused to hush it up, and he Is now again in communication with the committee. “The records of the Asylum bear this notice of the child called HJleaveland’ in the mutilated bill: Cleaveland Guenther: born Oct. 25, 1883: entered the asylum Nov, 10, 1882; received from Frank Guenther; supported by father. Guardian. Dr. Warrt-n. No. 19 Mil nor street. “The book of departures bears a similar record, ending with these words: Taken awav March 6,1883. By whom taken —died. Amount due, *37 40. It is a story, in brief, of a half orphan committed to the asvlum by his father, paid for by him. frequently visited, and at last laid in the grave by him. All the charges were paid by the father. The bill first quoted was one sent him a few weeks before the child's death. Dr. Warren is recorded as guardian—that is to say, he became responsible for the payment of the expenses, and thus the bill fell into his hands, though the father paid it. "Dr. Warren is a Republican politician. The bill was mutilated by cutting off the date line and the father’s name. Mr. Blaine was written to. and three weeks later he seDt the following letter to Dr. Warren: ArarsTA. Me., July 21, 1884. To Dr. sim uel H. Warren. Buffalo, X. Y. —-IK' I am directed by Mr. Blaine to thank you tor your kind note of June JO, which he has read with interest, and referred confidentially to the Secretary of the Bepubßcan National Com mittee. Very trulv vours. ’ Thomas H. Sherman. Private Secretary. “A few days ago two other parties were let into the’ lionar.za. One of these is Joseph M. Wolford, a Democrat, who keeps a saloon at No. 154 Broadway. Just how he came into possession of the docu ments is not clear. His own statement is that the Doctor became convivial to help lessness at his saloon one night last week, and exposed the bill and letter, which he took. When the Doctor found out that Joe had them he demanded their return, and being relused agreed to let Joe keep them if he could help sell them. Dr. Don, a sort of partner of Dr. Warren, then came on the scene and agreed to on the terms Warren had menr^, ne( i. <_) ne of the first told about the docu ments was Mr. Jame° Fullerton, ex- Chairman of the Republican City Com mittee. It is asserted that Mr. Fullerton on Saturday last offered $250 for the papers, in Wolford’s saloon, and counted out the money. Persons who were there say he did not offer that amount, but that that was the price talked of, and he said he would see about it. Fullerton is Wol ford’s attorney. “Previous to this alleged offer of $250 Wolford had called on Mr. Bissell. the Governor’s ex-partner, and showed h.m what he had. He told Mr. Bissell he had a bet of SIOO against the genuineness of the Cleveland bill. Mr. Bissell told him his bet was safe—there was nothing in the documents. Mr. Augustus F. iiebeu, Chairman of the County Committee, also refused to touch them. “The doctor kept a close eye on the custodian of his papers, but did not enter in the negotiations himself. The Blaine letter was shown, with the date and ad dress lines covered, and on Tuesday last the doctor's name was cut out at his re quest. Somebody—Wollord says it was the doctor—telegraphed to the New York .Sun in Wolford’s name, and ominous looking telegrams from Charles A. Dana were shown in the same way as the other documents, with all hut the signature covered. They proved later to be com paratively innocent dispatches, to the effect that Mr. Dana could not buy with out examining.’ ” HORSFOUD’S ACID PHOSPHATE Cnaniinoua Approval of Medical Staff. Dr. T. G.
