GENERAL Sherman and James G. Blaine walking arm-in-arm was a sight that created some surprise in New York the other day. Well, the WAYS of politicians are dark. THI first anniversary of Mr. & Mrs. President Cleveland's marriage oc curred last Thursday and Grover and Frankie quietly and pleasantly spent the day in fshingi near Saranac Inn, N. Y. PRESIDENT Cleveland has justly hon ored another of Pennsylvania's dis tinguished democrats by appointing Hon. W. A. Wallace as a member of the board of visitors at the naval academy at Annapolis. PUILADKLPNIA wants an elevated railroad. A syndicate backed by thirty million dollars is ready to build fortj miles of road. Pennsylvania's metropolis has • pushing set of busi ness men and when they put their shoulders to the wheel it is generally a "go." TMT Philadelphia Times of last Friday agitates the question of get ting up a rousing Fourth of J uly cel ebration in the Quaker city this year. Being the birthplace of American In dependence there is no place in the Union where that important event ought to be rejoiced over and appro priately commemorated with more vim than in the city of Philadelphia. THE great number ot distinguished men of this country who have gone to eternity in the past two years has been joined by two more in the death of EX-Yice President William A. Wheel • er, which occurred on Sunday last, and that of Chief Justice Mereur, who died last Monday. A short biography of these men may be found in another column. MARSHALL Dill was sworn into of fice in the United States district court by Judge Butler on Tuesday morn ing. Mr. Dill's bondsmen are Will iam M. Singerly, of the Philadelphia Record , and Juan F. Portuondo, a cigar manufacturer ot that city. The bond is $20,000 ami the new United States Marshall and his two sureties each qualified in that sum. CURRENT reports have it that ex governor A. G. Curtin may re enter the political field as a candidate for congress from the newly formed twentieth congressional district, con sisting of Centre, Clearfield, Clarion, Elk and Forest counties. If true it will be a surprise all around as the ex-governor was pretty generally con sidered to be on the retired list of poli ticians. THAT the people of this state are thoroughly aroused by the injustice which would naturally result from the failure of the new revenue bill, which was blunderingly allowed to be lost at the late session of the legislature is shown in the following circular which is being sent to the commissioners of every county in the state : WILKESBAKKK, Pa., June 3, 18K7. To the Commissioners of — Co. GENTLE MEN :—Your attention is called to the fail ure of the revenue bill, and the jiosition of the Governor upon the subject. In justice to your county and its tax-pajiers it becomes necessary for you immediately to urge upon your Senator and members to insist U]K>II an extra session, and liave all your local papers demand the same. By this blunder (if such it be,-) a great injustice has been done to the people and it should be remedied. Yours respectfully, CYRUS STRAW, Chairman Co. Corn's. Convention. GOVERNOR BEAVER vetoed the State Capitol improvement bill and gives as bis reason the "uncertainty as to the revenues." Now we never thought mnch of patch work on public build ings and especially not on the state capitol buildings, and since the pro ject of erecting a new capitol has gone under we are satisfied to see the repair bill go along with it. But the Gov ernor's reason for vetoing the bill brings us back to the mysterious fail ure of the revenue bill. If according to his opinion the revenues of the state are uncertain, or in other words, unequal to the expenses, then the loss of the new revenue bill is indeed a great loss to the treasury of the state, and we join in the general sentiment of the representatives of the people aud of the press,which urges the Governor to call an extra session of the Legisla ture for the purpose of re enacting the lost bill. True, extra sessions are ex pensive, but the gain by having the revenue bill made a law would exceed that expense by $2,000,000, and con sequently the recalling of the Legisla ture would pay in the end. If noth ing is done in the matter it will sim ply bo another illustration of how cor porations are layered and how they can do as they please. Since writing the above article wo see that Governor Reaver's chief oh jeetion to calling an extra session is removed, as nearly nil the momliers of the legislature expressed their willing ness to serve during such session without pay. EVERY day President Cleveland's popularity seems to increase and his strength as tbo next candidate for the high office which he now fills with such undisputed efficiency becomes more and more npparant. Thefollewiug conversation which was had ontho sub ject between two representatives from Texas and a no wspaper reporter at Washington will explain itself and cau be taken as a finger board to the approaching campaign of ISSB : "What Jo the people of your state think of the president ?" asked the reporter of Representative Stewar.t who had eoiuo to the National capital the other morning. "There is no opposition in Texas to the president," was the reply. "The Texas delegation will le unanimous for his nomination. And on this suhjeot 1 can spenk for tho entire South. The whole South is for Cleveland. There is no op{>osi tion to him and in the eoiiventiou |h will have the solid, hearty and enthusiastic sup port of our people. His popularity increas es as the people know more of him. He has given the country an honest and eeono mical administration, and in the national convention next year lie will le renomina t<<d by acclamation. He will !*• renomina te! and re-elected." Representative Savers, of Texas, who has just come from his home to attend the commencement exercises at Annapolis as one of the board of visitors to the naval a cadenty, was also interviewed. He corrolt oruted all that Mr. Stewart had said in r-- gard to the democratic enthusiasm for the president in Texas. He said there was hut one sentiment in that state as to the next canvass, and that was for Cleveland." AT WORK OX THE BILLS. The Governor Approves Some But Finds Many to Veto as Well.

He was born in this place on the 30t.1i of June, 1810. His lather died when he was eight yers old, leaving his mother in poor circumstances to take care of him and his two sisters. Mrs. Wheel er worked hard and succeeded in keeping her son at school until has was capable of earning his livelihood as a teacher. Later on he went to the university of Vermont for two years and there studied law for four years, when he was admitted to thebar. From that time on until he was relieved of the vice presidency he always held public office of some kind. Briefly, some of the of fices to which, he was at various times elected were town clerk, school com missioner, school inspector, Malone ; district-attorney of Franklin county, twice a member of assembly, and once state senator. 113 was a representative in congress thirty-seventh and forty-seventh ses sions, and in 1877 took possession of the vice-president's chair with It. B. Hayes as president. Shortly after go ing into this office his wife died, and thereafter his whole nature seemed changed, and he rarely appeared in public at any of the receptions in Washington or elsewhere. When his term of office I ml "xplied lie retired to his home in Malone and secluded himself as much as possible from all liis old friends. Lately he de clined rapidly and it was apparent that his demise was only a matter of a short time. Dr. Gay was in almost constant at tendance, and the dying man could hardly hear him out of sight. Friday afternoon ho seemed more cheerful than usual. He talked with unusual animation, but as night approached his spirits tailed and he became alarmingly worse. Finally he lapsed into a com atose condition and passed quietly without a sign of recognition of those about him. The once strong and ag gressive political leader was wasted to almost a shadow of his former self. Of late years Mr. Wheeler spent a gieal deal of money in charity and im proving the condition of the poor In his native locality. Mr. Wheeler hud heen a republican from the formation of the party and before that time had been a whig. • • • ♦ ♦ l>cnth of Chief .lustlee Mereur. PHILADELPHIA, June 6.—Chief Jus tice Mereur,of the state supreme court, who has heen ill for the past ten days with pneumonia, died at the residence of his son at Walliugford, Delaware county, this morning. SKETCH OK HIS LIKE. Hon. Ulysses Mereur was ls>rn at Towan da, I 'a., May 2S, tsis. He graduated lYom the Jefferson college, I'unonshurg, at lin age of 21. He read law in the oltiee of Judge William MeKeioion, of Pittsburg. He was a delegate to the convention that nominated John C. Fremont for president, and was a Lincoln presidential elector in IStk). lie was apjktintcd judge of the com mon pleas court of Bradford county in 18fi2, and was subsequently elected to till the same intuition for a term of ten years, in the fall of ISU4 lie was elected to congress. He served several terms in congress. He became a chief justice of the supreme court in January, IHS3. His ancestors went to Bradford county front Lancaster county, anil his early professional career was sj>eui in that locality, where lie had eminent suc cess at the l>ar, and was conspicuous in pol itics. He was formerly a democrat, and as such ttx>k an active interest in polities, and was elected to the Thirtieth congress, He was a frequent delegate to state conventions and a leading eounseller in the party. The detection of David Wiluiot, and other cir cumstances before the war changed the jo --litieal complexion of that region and Mi-r --cur leoamo a republican. 11• was elected to judgeship of the local courts, but after Ave or six years service thereon, resigned to accept an ejection to the Forty-second congress which lie served with much dis tinction. ill 1X72, in the famous Huckalcw llartranft campaign, he was the nouiiuce of the republican party for judge of the su preme court,and was elected by a large ma jority which his party had. Since then his career has IR-011 solely judicial, and in tin course of time he attained the chief justice ship of the court from which, had he lived, he would have retiml on January 1. He was a known candidate for re-election, but Quay and otln-r republican liosses had de creed his defeat and it was generally !*•- lieved he would not have been nominated, though many of the lawyers of the state had declared for him and he had a great many inAuontial friends. His daughter is the wife of Colonel It. Frank Eshleuia,of Lan caster. His son Rodney is a practical law yer in Towanda. ,lames resides at Wall iugford. John practices medicine in l'hiht dclphia. Another s.u, l lyss.s, jr., is a student in Philadelphia. Judge Mercur's wife, who survives liim, is a sister of Gen. W. \V. H. Davis, of Dovlestowii. A Candidate for Justice Mercur's Place. WILKRSDARRE, June 7.—The lieath of Chief Justice Mereur having created a vacancy in the supreme court to be filled by Governor Heaver, Charles E. Uice, president judge of the Luzerne county courts, will be strongly urged for the posit ion. The Record earnestly advocates his appointmeut. •■ WHOSE FAULT WAS IT ? The Failure of the Revenue IIIU Labi on the Senate. Representative John 13. Robinson, was in the city yesterday, in speaking of the revenue bill, said ; "The Gov ernor ought to call an extra session. It would; cost the State nothing as the members would not have the cheek to ask for pay for a few days' service. The same mistake about an important bill took place last session, but fortun ately the error was discovered in time and the bill called and signed . "Regarding whose fault it is that this revenue bill has failed it wi.l probably never be known, but I have my own conviction, based on what oc curred with bills 1 had in charge, that the fault is on the Senate side. Mes sage Clerk Taylor was one of the most careful and conscientious officials on the Hill and won the resect of all the House side by his cleverntss. The Sen eat has a fashion of chatgingevcry error on the Ilouse.Chief C'erk Losch, one of ihemost competent of officials,was dur ing the session charged with some mis take; so was Resident Clerk Voorhees, another excellent and accuiate officer by the Senate Clerks, and when it was investigated it was found the fault was on the Senate side. "The revenue bill did not go through in the last bouts, but early in the last week, when there was plenty of time and no particular rush." BLOOMINOTON, Ills., Sep. 18. 1882. Messrs. F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio Have taken Hall's Catarrh Cure. Had catarih all my life ;am 48 years old. Had asthma l'J years, and a d.eadful cough for five years. Have taken everything ; went to the Hot Springs; I have doctored with the doc tors here; I have done nothing but take medicine fjr l'J years. When I com menced using Hall's Catarrh Cure I was almost dead. I sent for the doctor the day I got Hall's Catarrh Cine and I told him that 1 would die any way and that I w.,uld try your medicine. I was very bad. How I suffered for t) years! I could hardly breathe at times. 1 saw Hall's Catarrh Cure advertised in the papers and commenced taking it. I would have been under the ground to day if it had not been for that. 1 have not had one bad spell of coughing since. In breathing my head feels well and I am well. It has done me a thousand dollars worth of good. There are ten of my friends, on seeing what it had done for me, taking it, and it is helping them. I only wish thateveiy one who has catairh, asthma and a had cough could see me, so that I could tell them all to take it. All that know me here kr.ow how I have suffered, (I have been here since 1558.) and say to me that "I am so glad that you found something that could cure you." Ev eryone says, "how much better you look." The doctors say they are glad I found flail's Catarih Cure as they could not cure me. I cannot express my gratitude to you for the good Hall's Catarrh Cure has done me. You can use as much of this letter as will do the alfiicted good. Pub lish it to the whole world—it is all true and tney should know it. JOSEPHINE CIIRISMAN, 400 East North Street.
