Tnu Liquor Prohibitory Ameudnunt bill sustained an overwhelming deft-nt Friday in the Pennsylvania House of H-picsentatives, only 27 members voting for it to 1C1 against it. This decMvo vote against the bill wns due to the amendment made by the Committee on Vice and Immorality, providing that compensation shall be mndu out of the State Treasury to all persons who own buildings occupied and licensed for the mannfaclnre or salo of intoxicating liquor, for five successive, years previous to the adoption of the prohibitory umond ment, which may be injured or reduced in value by reason of such business, and that the Legislature shall provide the tuunncr in which the d.image ahull be ascertained and paid. In conseqnonce of this provision many ultra-prohibition ists voted against tho bill. A motion was promptly made to reconsider the vote in order to kill tbe bill for the sea lion, and the House by 71 yeas to lOO nays refnsed to reconsider. In an interview with a reporter a few days ago, Charles A. Dana, of the New York Son, said the lending issue of the next Presidential campaign would be to turn out the (Republicans. Continuing, he said: 1 1 think tho Democrats can come squarely before tho country as nd Tocates of n Uriff lor revtnne only. An internal revenue tax on liquor, which will yield enough, to pay the pensions granted under the recent laws, is ju3t!a able.

The Wusbinistin Gas Companj is monopoly which has been protected. bj Congre.s for many years, llepeatea in restitutions have shown that tho'com pany has furnished members uf Congress and other Dersous in publio office with ,gas froo of charge iu return for their iC' licence in preventing hostile Initiation, These exposures havo produced no re- suit. Forty bills were introduced Be tween the years 1804 nnd 1881 to charter new companies or to reduce the price of nas. The forty bills all failtil. iou bills iu the interest of this corporation were presented aud passed at n limo when it was notorious that the free gt.a tor Congressmen and others was charged cltbtr to the Government or to the city. Mr. John Bailey, now Chief Clerk.and for many years Disbursing Clerk of the House of Representatives, is one of the principal stockholders and managers of ibis corporation. He has been connect ed with it for nearly a quarter of a con tury. Ou the Cth of last January Congress man Kloti, of Pennsylvania, who had in. vestlgated tbe subject for bis own satis faction, charged iu the House of Repre sentatives that Dailey h.id influeuced legislation fur the benefit of tho Wash ington Gss Compauy, lu whlcn be was larmdv Interested. .Mr. Murch of Maine offered a resolution for a stlect com mittee of five members to investigate tbe charge, In flagrant violation of the accepted Brsctios.Speakir Keifer refused. to ap- point to this committee the member wlio offered the resolution, the memhtr who made tbe charg. or the members who spoke in favor of investigation. He named Mr. Crowley of Now Ycnfc, Mr. Aldrlch of Illinois. Mr. UUbee. Mr. of Delaware and Mr. Cox of North Caroliua. Mr. Cox was tbe only one of the five numbers who believed lu making a thorough aud boneal invest! c.ition of Mr. Klotz's charges. From b. ginning to end the invebtiga- tiou was otiu aided. It was proven, now ever, that the company bad employed a professlouul lobbjUt, with a feo of $5,000, to defeat a bill proposing to ahirUrau orposllion g&s cimpany, and that Bailey had iu many ways' sought lo itiQdi-na leglsUtlou.

New Yokk, April 24, 1883, If we New Yorkers do not soon become millionaires by being; forced to save bat we earn, it is not the fault of the Police Commissioners who how are1 anx ious to etrouteUbe laws with Spartan rigor lu order to be upheld as mbde'ls of excellence, until they have bceri tippoln. ted. With tverygamblingbouse closed, every policy 'Bhop raided, every public resort of disreputable' womanhood and manhood'harassed into a state of quit tude, il was nut fair to expect tliat last Sunday tbe sensational preachers would get up nnd thank God for the fact that the Police Board had knocked the evil onoout iu this town of Gotham. But the pachas of the blue coated forces wen eyen further' than that. Last Sunday wae a miserable bleak and dreary any, The rain came down in a steady down. pour and .ITerq'was a mfsery astride for tnose wno uaa nptmng to io put iock out of the windows. .Walking was out ot the nutation. Iu the afternoon pater familiaH'who works steadily nil the week thought perhaps that ho would send out for a pitoher of beer to relieve tbe mono. tony, when to his surprise he was inform cd that no beer whs to be had, aud that the proprietor of the saloon iu tho neigh borhood who had been d!speosiug"hcck" in blissful ooLllilnro nad neen arrested Late on Saturday night the Commission, ers issued nu order to (he Superlnten dent, and he communicated it to the Inspectors and Captain, commanding in the strictest terms that no beer or any other beverages. must bo sold ou bnnday. These worthies saw at once that the or der meruit business, nnd'earrie J it out to the letter.-, The result wVs that those of the New Yorkers who are'not rich enough to keep a'sfock of something to-drink in the housu ucre compelled lo forego even tho innoceiit refreshment of 'a glass' of 'eer. Thus it comes to pass that' when the winfh of the geds at Police Head quarters is nn.ustd'the good mutt suffer equally with tbe bad. The prime movers at the bottom of th hue aud cry are the half dozen or so socie ties who have set themselves the mission of making this city n sort of Zibn's.camp. Every law.be it ever so absurd is dragged nut from the must nnd dust of oblivion and its txccutlon forced. When the dog lay in tho monger no that tho horse could not get his food, it annoyed tho horse very much nnd although tho dog got nothing particularly for his labors hi position gave him a great deal, of satis faction. There is another movement on foot now, which will prove even, more harm lul, A ncmber of clergymen are serious ly agitating tbe question of suppressing the publication of Sunday newspapers, They hoped thai under the new penal code tbe issnlng of them would stop of itself. When they fouud lhat this would not work they applied to thePplice Com missioners, and Police Justices, who very flatly refused to further the wishes of theso bigots. I 'understand, nowbat it society Is to be formed to attain the desired. object. The alleged ministers of. the Lord wko nre at the head ,of this movement claim that Sunday newspapers ktep people-nwayfrOiil religion and the churches. .The religion which tbey teach aud tbelr services must bi very poor indeed if so slight a cause can in duce people to stay away from them., Talk about the tyranny of autocracy in most.ot tho countries of Europe. Tho' religious tyranny which th'-so crroies of narrow-minded, small-hearted bigots banded together, would exercise is tin times a-orse. Wall Street last Thursday morning was shocked by the announcement that Mr. Hatch, of the famous banking firm of I'ink Si Hatch in Nassau Street, had committed suicide. He bad oomodown to bis ofiice.looked himself In, nnd blown hi brains out. Everybody rushed to the office to find out, but no one could ascertutu anubing. Then ever body waited for tbe afternoon papers but tbey dit not coutain a Hue. The motulug papers likewise did not have a word ibout the athdr, The matter wts entire. ly and completely supptcssed. The As soclated Press aud all the bureaus of the out of-towu papers together with tbe lo cul newspaper offices were vl-itid by a representative of tbe family, and the story was made as dead as tbe man whom it most intimately concerned. Later in the day it was asstrted that it war not the Hatch, tho partner of Mr. Flak, who lad ended bis life, but a relative of his, who had been a victim to Insane melan choly for fconTe' tlma. This of course quieted people who had funds deposited with the banking house. About the, do. tails, howevir, nothing was ascertainable. As a Mory of liuvr news may be sup pressed, however, the foiegoiug is worth kuowiug. I was tpraking with a well known author and literary' critib tbe other day. about the pnaent condition of the book market, wbicb, despite all appearances is very bad, "Does the publication o: tl.o Franklin Square Library, and other Cheap editions or books' ray tbe Harp er'.?' I asked,' "I think not," replied be.' '"Id fact I think tbey must bring out 'every one at 'a lot. -In the 'first place this line of books has entirely des rhlch havo been pledged to hfnl by let ters unasked. "I am sure the Harper's are being hurt for the past few yenrs, but they are only being paid back In their own coin. They wero always known to be guilty of pirati cal practices, nnd cover besUatednt any thing when It became a questiou of get ling the best of a rival, It is about twenty years ago,, I believe, that the Putnam's paid for and secured from Murray tho famous English publisher, tho advance:shcets of George Sorrow's at that time famous novel, of Lavengtp. Its publication was announced for a cer tain dnyenow they felt that tho Harper's would steal n. march on them if they could, Thus they had ono copy of the book bound, arid ito pages regularly numbered, but right in the heart of it, entire, chapter had been- emitted. Tho book was placed where It vras sub ject to outside influences.- Suro enough it disappeared, nnd in a few days the Harper's announced tho, book nmong their new publications. The Putnam's chuckled in their sleeves, for when the edition appeared the chapter was missing aud of course they pointed out the fact as well ns tho, circumstances which bad led to-it. There was quite a stormy aoctrovetsv. but the Harper's .had to uppress the edition and then everybody laughed." With moving day, the first of May, dole at band, there are hardly any signs visible of tho annual migratory feeling which annually seizes upon New Yorkeis on that day. On tho houses ono sees fewer bills "To let," than for years, and truckman to whom moving tide brings a veritable harvest- are despondent. Tbe fact is that landlords who havo at all desirable tenants will sooner yield a point than havo them go. It is evident that the value of real, estate property reached Its high-water mark'last year. It has held itself'thus far almost a twelve month, but now a 'downward tendency is mnulfestiug itself. Tho prices obtained for first-class properly at the Real E$ tate Exchange fully show that, and the transactions made by brokers at private sale boar it out. The day for opening tho Brooklyn Bridge to traffic has at last bten fixed for tho 24th Of May, when the- President wilt come on from Washington and all the greai men of tbe State will assemble to land the enterprise and the genins which -prompted. and 'executed the work of binding the two cities together. But will the Bridge prove of practical value? Hardly, expect on rare occasions. When people can rile over tbe Eist River in n ferry-boat iu tbe Btme time that-tbey will walk over tbe Bridge, why should thy pay toll for tho latter? It will prob ably prove a.'Vj ry plesect promenade and a curiosity for)vistors from out-ot-town, b it furtbur than that it will prove nothing but a, monument of the deaths of huuclreils, of workingmen and engi neers, and of the luciilem Kcieuco of swallowing up millions and showing nothing for It.

Had she adopted the stage early in life, as a hardworkiug conscientious student, and escaped tbe fatal influences of flattery and publio at- tentions based on .other qualities than professional excellence, there is no reason to doubt that sbo might have become something more than a merely, respecta. ble actress. As it is sho does not rise, and does not give any evidences uf ever being able to rise above the. dead level ot common place. Much of her acting was ladylike, and natural, but nowhere did she show .the slightest glow of fire of geuina, or, even noticeable dramatic tal ont. As to her beauty, that is, of course, and must ever remain a matter of opin ion. Surely, however,, it may bo said that had she come to this country with. out previous advertisement of her charms she might have traveled from one end to the other, and across lots as her fancy might dictate, without attracting unusual attention to her face or form. On the whole, therefore, sho and her management do wisely in undertaking to reap their harvest during the first season.
