Tbe leaders in the outbreak, it la now aaoertalL.ii, were rough*, thieves and other ill-bred fellows, who availed themselves of the unhappy condition of the workers In order that they might ply their dishonest vocations. ‘That such is the ir oharaolor and such their intention Is shown by tbe rove Hattons of tbe riot, Thk total number of allures In t! e United Slates and Canada last week, ■urn repotted to Rrudatreei’s, was 227 •gainst 288 the week before, and as compared with 273, with 243, 221 and with 168 In tl o second weeks o' Feb ruary In 1885, 1884 I8S3 and 1882 res pectlvely.

One firm has a contract to ship forty tons of shells every sixty days. They are worth from $700 to $1000 a ton. They are used In all kinda of decorative industriea, re turning to this country from Franca vastly increased in prioe when traus formed into pearl buttons, brooohe*, shawl olaspa, knife handles or In In laid work. Tahiti shells, large tla ■"mother of pearl’’ shells, are worm Tfom $1 50 to $4 each, and tbe finest selected paiis ate sometimes sold for as much as fifty dollars. These are the shells which art students ami others are fond of dt facing with f. eble pictures that obliterate the uatuial beauties of the shell. A movement to help the unem ployed poor of L mdou follows the recent outbreak—a good thing in Its -way, but incapable of aflrrdtng more tlhan temporary relief to a very few people. The land question in E g land as well aB in Ireland is closely -oonneoted with tbe metropolitan dis tress. London Is the looal point of disturbance simply because It is tbe i.-eaort of the thousands of unemployed Shorn tbe oouutry districts, towns and Villages, where the distress Is greater, with no prospect of relief. If England oould make laud-ewu- •ers of Its people to a much greater extent than at preceut, as fias been already proposed In Ire land, two good things would be ac complished. There would be less Utarrsl Rnmik'i WU»B. Tt will doubtless occur to a great many people as a very singular thing that tbe widow of the senior major-, general of tbe United States army should be left pennlle*. It is very natural that suoli an inqutry should present itself, yet there ls good au thority for tbe truth of suob state* rnent. A circular was issued over the signatures of Generals James B Fry, T L Crittenden, Wm F Smith end W W Burns, In which they stats that "liberal and patriotic cltl- aena have suggested to intimate friends of General Hancock and his widow that a fund be raised for the bent fit < f bis family We, therefcie, knowing General Hancock’s oirpum- stanoea and tl e drafts npon his pay * • • by the endless charilit b to which be responded, e-pi daily those result!! g from the civil war, earnest ly oummetid the suggestion.” This puts the esse in moderate terms, but Gen James B Fry has written a letter to Mr G W Childs, of Philadelphia, from wbiob we take tb!a extiaol: • You will observe that tbs statement upon the subscription Hat Is general In ile terms. I may say to you that the facts as to General Haneock’s financial affairs would Justify stronger language than we used. While he was eoonomioal In all things the demands that pressed upon him * * * * for aldlrg destitute soldiers were so con stant and heavy that In spite of all he could do he fell behind. Tbe sal- aiy of his lowest clerk wi uldmeet ail that 1 e ai~d Mrs Hancock spent upon themselves—all the rest of their in come went for the good cf others who needed it. I need not point out to you tux got dm 84 of heart that is the cause of the present poverty of Gen Hauccck’s widow ” No words are needed to add either force or dignity to that statement, made with tbe soldier’s directness and the force of plain truth. Mot fVw«»fc«r Thx\M Oihiri. It has doubtless been observed tba' a great deal of solicitude is felt for tt e widows of the great men who have recently aesweie.l the summons of death. We do uol»peak of sympathy extended in the hour of be ewement, but muob anxiety Is manifested les such bereavement results in serious prostration and Impaired health. There was nit a husband ai d wife more characteristic for devotion and personal attachment than the la*e vice president and his consor', yei she alone is the t xceptlou to thusc whose grief has not been teporled as a burden more than oould be borne. Just why this should be the case is not tasily understood, if fuo's are stated in suoh reports. The wives or our piominent and distinguished men are certainly not w aiter than the average, nor are they as a rule of more frail pbys 'que. That I heir grief Is more keen than that of other affectionate and devoted wives we are not prepared io believe. It is not likely that tbeir sensibilities are any tenderer, and if (bey were the sympathy of the people is far more ooplously x tended, and if this counts for anything it should help assuage such grief. We have no desire to lift the oui* tain of family sorrow and bereave ment, but we submit that It Is uuju-t and a doubtful oompllment to tbe widows of the distinguished dead that tlrey should be thus presented to the publto. That their bereavement is deep and dark when called upon to mourn tbe death of a beloved bUuN bund will u. t b. questioned, but why parade them in such sorrow and nuke them weaker than the averag. of the sex? Certainly this canncn be true, yet such oooetruotion only cun be given the sensational reports their man or men to make muob of a con teat over tbe second election. Bit they always have It In their power so to do. 11 Is a somewhat expensive pr< oeedlng, after the November elec' tlons, to go through another in Feb ruary for some gentlemen beoause they happen to hold portfolios, yet it must be considered as among the oareful bedgea which tbe representa tive system In England bai set op to prevent any ministry from owing too much to the orown .” B| fecial telegrams to Bradstreet’s repi at previous weeks’ advices re specting unfavorable weatber and more or lees Impassable oountrj roads, both of which have had » marked effect in depriving trade.
