A pbettt answer was given by a little

The best New Efigland observers think
that Chief Justice Gray, of Massachusetts,
is more likely to oocupythe seat of Jca.

Fnoyc an estimate made by the agricul
tural department at Washington, we learn
there are 1,111 acres of grapes in cultiva

worth $399,706.
"How is it, my dear, that you have never
kindled a flame in the bosom of anyman?”
said an old lady to bar pretty neiee. To
which the yonng lady replied, “The reason,
dear aunt, is, as you well know, that I am
not a good match.”
It can be authoritatively stated that the
section of vertebra and the broken rib of
President Garfield, now at the Medical
Museum, will not be placed on exhibition
in the museum. This will be satisfactory
information to the public, who wer3 shock
ed by the published statement that an ex

QrrcM Victoria has added another to her
many kind, graceful acts since President
Garfield was shot. She sent on Tuesday,
through Minister Lowell, a message of oon-
dolecce and inquiry after the health of tbe
widow and mother of the deceased states

October brings two Stela elections, both
of Eome importance. On the seeond Tues
day, that is, October 11, Ohio and Iowa will
each sleet a governor, a lieutenant-gover.
nor, and other State officers, and Iowa will
choose a portion of Us Senate and the
whole of its House of Representatives, while
Ohio will choose a full Legislature.
Blow high or low it seems to make no
difference to the wonderful little Scotch
cutter Madge. In the third of the series of
races with the Seawanhaka Yacht Club of
New York on Friday the Madge again won.
This with the race on Thursday with the
Mistral, makes her fourth victory in Amer-
can waters without a single defeat.
Got. Roberts, of Texas, exercises a per

State penitentiary. Moat of them, he says,

The tide of immigration eontinuas to
flow with increasing force. Since January
1,328,650 men, women and children have
been landed at Castle Garden, 5,000 more
than during the same period in 1880, and
2,000 more than arrived daring the first
half of September of last year. The com*
tnissionera continue to report that the im
migrants are of a better cluae, as a rule,
than aver before, and that nearly everyone
brings a little capital, the result of eoonomy
practiced in the old country.
As the geographical congress at Venice
has formally approved Gen. Turr’s plan for
a canal through tbe Isthmus of Oorintb, it
is probable that Greece will soon be geo
graphically severed in twain. Whether the
commercial advantages to be obtained
from the shorter route thus opened will
pay for the canal remains to be seen. When

But he either lacked the courage to shoot

Mrs. Stein bad gone away on a visit. Tbe
discovery of her body, however, coupled
with his admission fixes the crime upon

It is interesting to learn from Republi
can sources that the Fosteritea in Ohio de
sire to extend a cordial support to the new
administration and are willing, for a time
at least, to waive the great issue raised by
them ns betwee n the two factions of tbe
party of “Garfield or Guiteau.” The Fos-
terites are evidently of the seed of that
prudent postmaster of old time who proud
ly observed in the height of his career: "It
takes a pretty dam smart administration
to change faster’n I can.” There is still
time before the October elections for Mr.
Foster’s friends to discover and declare
that Arthur was really tbeir first choice for
President, and that they always thought
Garfield, (hough a good man, had loaded
down the ticket.
Tax members of the family of the Baron
Von Steuben embarked on Tuesday on
board the North German steamer Herder
for New York. They attended service for
the President in Berlin on Monday before
their departure. The German Emperor is
reported to have been greatly pleased on
being informed of the American govern
ment’s invitation to the Steuben family to
attend the Yorktown celebration. He not
only regards it as a farther bond of amity
between tho two oountries, but also ex
pressed his gratification at this proof of
America’s gratitude for the services of
Gen. Steuben to the young republic. Heat
once granted the necessary leave to the of
ficers of the family.
Or the 25,000 horses in tbe city of St.
Louis, Mo., about8,000 are now reported to
be disabled, temporarily, by a new and
mysterious disease called, for want of a
better name, “pink-eye.” Its symptoms
are a watery and offensive discharge from
tbe inflamed eye-lids, loss of appetite, and
swelling of tbe neck and legs. A promi
nent staklekeoper of that city says that
there is no doubt that every horse In the
city will be affected, but there will be vary
few fatal cases, moat of the animals com
pletely recovering in ten days. It is be

We see that both parties in tbe Senate
bare called caucuses for Saturday next,
in order to brace themselves for Monday’s
wo k. There seems to be an idea afloat
at Washington, and persistently distrib
uted by correspondents there, that an ef
fort will be made to effect some soit of
compromise in regard to tbe officer! of tbe
Senate. We are unable to see any reason
wby tbe Democrats should take any stock
in that business. It will certainly
lower them In the estimation
of all men who own,or respect the owners
of backbone, and who hare been so often
disgusted with the exhibition of the lack
of it by Democrats. There Is neither
sense, policy nor decency In any trading
or trafficking In this matter. If iheDem-
ocrats hare the majority, let them claim
and elect every Senate officer from Fresl
dent pro tempore down to executive
clerk. That is what tbe Radicals would
do if In the majority, and that Is what
they will do the moment they get the
power. Of course we suppose some Dem
ocratic Senators who may hare
personal friends and pels in
office now, may be willing to sere tbeir
beads, but they should not be allowed to
formulate * policy for tbe party. It
might be as well if they took bsck seats
and preserved a discreet silence. Let
tbe leaders—the real leaders ot tho party
cut out tbe work to be done.
Now is tbe time to turn over a new leaf
in the history of our party in Congress.
Heaven knows there is room,and to spare,
for reformation. Let the Democrats in
the Senate stand steadily on tbeir rights
—on principle, not policy. Demand
aud secure everything that belongs to
them, and tell the Republicans to held
themselves. We fear from some things
that come from Washington lately that
some Democrats about the Senate will be
only too willing to concede tbe President
pro tem. and the committees, for the “Sen
ate officials of various grades. At show
ing what Is thought at Washington would
result from the adoption of a determined
policy by the Democrats, wc find this
Western Press telegram in the Nashville
American of Tuesday ;
It is not believed all of the Republican
Senators could be brought to the point of
breaking a quorum which could be rem
edied in a week by the appearance of
Slater or Fair, and eren if one of these
could not be. obtained, it is felt that such
an exhibition would not be pleasing
to tlie country nor beneficial to tbe
party in tbe approaching elections.
Indeed, tbe expression of Mr. Dawes,
who led the Republican forces in .the
dead lock of the last session shows* al
most a willingness to concede the Demo
cratic organization without any struggle
even should it include the secretary. It
is very certain that Mr. Gorham, the Re
publican caucus nominee for secretary,
cannot now receive the united vote of the
Republican Senators, and probably not
hail of it. Riddleberger, however, would
be elected sergeant-at-arms, if that office
fell to tho Republicans. There is no dis
position to retreat from the agreement
with Mahone, who will be here and cer
tainly vote with the Republicans- A pre
liminary caucus will be held by both
parties on'S&lurday. There will be com
mittees ol conference appointed by both,
and every effort will be made to come to
an agreement. It is now conceded by the
Republican Senators here that they will
concede all tbe minor offices to the Dem
ocrat* in return for the election of a Re
publican presiding cfficer. In addition,
they will agree to the formation of the
committees on the basis of absolute equal
ity of tbe parties.

Dyspepsia is the inability of the stomach
to prepare from tbe food eaten the nour

Among a dozen dyspeptics no two will

Dyspeptics of active mental power and a
bilious temperament are subject to sick
headache; those who -it. flashy and phleg

nervous are abandoned to gloomy fore

For the certain cure of dyspepsia there
never was a medicine discovered equal to
or even deserving a comparison with Sim

years and the experience of many thou
sands and tens of thousands of every sgi

fact that no one will remain a dyspeptic

health, vigor and cheerfulness follow. It
is not unpleasant to the taste and is per

each meal will gently move the bowels as
naturally as if no medicine bad been taken,
