BUMILLER THE Prince of Wales has fallen in love with Sullivan's boxing and has invited the Boston slugger to give a private exhibition cf his muscular talents in one of the prince's club rooms. John is getting rich and famous over on the British isle. GLADSTONE, England's eminent statesman, and Ireland's warmest friend, is said to have overcome his dread of a voyage across the Atlantic, and has finally made up his mind to visit America next spring. Tie expects to spend about two months on this continent, during which time he will visit the principal cities of the United States. For the sake of his liberal views and truly paternal concern for down-trodden Ireland, the grand old man has hosts of friends in this coun try among the Irish as well as the A mericans who will receive him warmly and make his stay pleasant. THE latest excuse which the anthra cite coal kings furnish for refusing to listen to the demands of the striking minors will not hold water. Tbev say that for the past three years, with the loic price of coal, they have been ope rating at a great loss to themselves and only since the price of coal ad vanced can tbey expect to come out as the gainers. Poor fellows, tbey truly deserve to be pitied. The facts iu the ease are, before ISB3 they made mon ey at $4.00 a ton, and since then coal has gone up while wages have bt Id to the same status. And still these moueyed operators boldly claim that they are too poor to pay higher wages. THF. fiftieth congress which was called to order last .Monday at twelve o'clock, re-elected Speaker Carlisle, and proceeded with the preliminary work cf organization. Outside of the iudispensible appropriations tariff leg-1 islation will be the most important task of the body. It is admitted on all hands that there must he a reduc tion of revenues by from fifty to one Lundred millions, but nobody seems j to be equal to the question how it i to be effected. The most pausible plan 9eems to be that advanced by Randall and his wing. They insist upon the retention of the tariff, except upon su gar, and advocate the abolition ot nearly all internal revenue taxation, j excepting probably whiskey. ' The work of organizatien was accom plished in a very harmonious manner j and what is best of all the sound and politic address by Speaker Carlisle met the approval of all. He frankly declared that "hasty and inconsiderate legislation on subjects more or less af fectiog large financial aud industrial interests might produce, temporarily at least, disturbances and embarrass ments which more prudent course would entirely avoid. Investments made and labor employed in the nu merous ana valuable industries which have grown up under our present system of taxation ought not to be rudely disturbed by sudden and radi cal changes in the policy to which they have adjusted themselves " That is broad statesmanship, and there is no more apprehension of a probable split of the Democratic party on the tariff question. A judicious tariff rev enue redaction, as recommended by Mr. Carlisle will be heartily supported by his entire party. POLITICS in France were running high for the past tew weeks aud up to last Saturday when the crisis was satisfactorily passed by the election of Sadi-Carnot, as president of the French Republic, vice Grevy resigned The people in Paris were particularly alarm ed at the ominous look of things about the time Grew resigned, which was on the memorable 2nd of December and which threatened to be a black Fri day. The movement of the revolution ary factions,the Blanquists, Anarchists, Socialists and Workingmen, were watched with much anxiety, as an outbreak was expected at almost any time. Excitement was at fever-beat and riots bad taken place in several parts of the city. But on Saturday the country held its breath and all the hopes and fears centered on Versailles where the national congress met for the purpose of electing a new presi dent. At about four o'clock in the afternoon the Speaker ot the bouse announced the result of the electoral college and the news of Sadi-Carnot's election was hailed with wild enthusi asm. Paris and the country are again quiet and peaceful and seem, at least for the time being, well contented with their new president. A correspondent to the Sunday Times, Philadelphia, in commenting upon the election, writes: The National Congress held to-day in the Palace of Versailles proves that France is herself again, and following in the footsteps of the American Republic. It 'also proves that the French Republic is now ho longer in her swaddling 'clothes, but has attained her majority. The elec tion of Sadi-Carnot is the outcome of sound, common sense and patriotism of the French Republicans. It is not a victory of auy faction. It is the firm deliberate resolve to maintain and ac centuate the dignity and strength of the First Magistrate of the nation. The Holiday Trade as a Barometer of the Times.] The Philadelphia Time* of Saturday Rays that the holiday trade is now fairly opened and the signs are unmistakable that it will lx> the largest ever known in that city. The merchants are fully prepared for it, and the public are fully prepared to buy more lib erally than ever before and pay more promptly than usual. The holiday season is the unerring barom eter of the prosperity or paralysis of the varied business of the country. When in dustry is well requited and capital fairly rewarded they prove their prosperity by the liberality they exhibit in the holiday season It is the time when the heart g>es out gen erously for the household gods of every happy home, and where circumstances will warrant it, there are always gladdened loved ones in every domestic circle. When seasons of adversity come, the holiday trade suffers more than any other branch of business. Holiday articles are not necessities ;they are among the luxuries of life ; the most commendable of all luxuries, and every class and condition has its holiday luxuries which are enjoyed with all the seat of the mast opulent of the land, and often with a measure of gratitieatlon that is unknown in the homes where the en tire absenee of want creates satiety. Bueh are not to be envied, but rather pitied. Let us not borrow trouble, but rather en joy the general prosjHTity that prevails throughout all business circles, and have a happy holiday season. The garners of the >untry are full to overflowing : labor Is generally employed at Ix'tter wages than ever known considering the cost of living ; eapital is reasonably rewarded in all legiti mate enterprise ; the people are more free from debt than at any time during the last quarter of a century, and there is every reason why there should Ih> the largest holi day trade and the best holiday enjoyment of the present generation. Stop Costly Funerals. The Protestant Episcopal ministers of the diocese of New York have organized an as soeiation to promote burial reform ; and llishop Potter, who is at the head of the movement, urged all religious deuomina tions to take active measures to break up the present costly, oppressive and senseless expenditure at fuuerals. In no way does vulgarity expose itself in such hideous forms as in the attempt at |H>mp and display in the house of mourning ; and when it is remembered that in a very large majority of cases the exjiense of tl.is vulgarity must be covered either by the se verest self-denial or by unpaid debts, what possible excuse can there be for its contin uance ? It is idie to ask the poorer and less intell igent to dispense with pomp and needless cost at funerals while those who are more intelligent and able to bear expense persist in it. Indeed, there is much excuse for the l*>or and the ignorant, but there is none for the intelligent and opulent. The poor, "as a rule,are stronger in their domestic affection than those whose daily social life is more diffused, and they feel that they owe it to their dead to imitate as far as possible the display and ceremonies of those to whom expense is not a matter of moment. The really intelligent and sincere portion of most communities now seek to make fu uerals as simple and inexpensive as can l>e done with propriety. They do it because they understand that their dead loved ones should l>e kept sacred from vulgar gaze as well as from vulgar ostentation in funeral ceremonies ; but there are yet many whose intelligence should teach them better, whose funeral occasions are ostentatious to a degree that only vulgarity can properly express it. Especially should ministers of every faith protest against the needless cost and the vulgarity of pompous funerals. All such i leas are simply relics of bir bar ism ; they offend every attribute of sincere love and reverence for the dead ; they sadly oppress the poor ; they as sadly vulgarize the rich, and they should be pronounced against from every pulpit. Indeed, all funerals, except of those who command the homage of a State or nation, should be severely sim ple and the circle of attendants should be severely limited to the sincere offices of af fection. All else is vain show, a vulgar ex posure of the dead ; a needless oppression of the poor, and an offense against good taste aud public propriety.— Philo. .Sunday Time*. MEETING OF CONGRESS. Lively Scenes at the Opening of both Houses. WASHINGTON, Dec. 2. —The senate chamber wore a fresh and tasteful ap pearance this morning. The floors and galleries were newly carpeted, and the desks glistened in their coat of varnish, the odor of which mingled faintly with , that of the boquets and gorgeous floral devices which enlivened the picture. Trie desks of a great many senators, and that of the president of the senate, were elaborously adorned with flowers in various un'que and tasteful forms. Senators began to arrive and take their seats before 11 o'clock. Senators Stewart and Hiscock being the first comers. For an hour before noon the floor was a busy scene, members of ! both parties,their friends andthe offic ers were taking this occasion to ex change greetings arid compare notes. The chief topic of conversation with most of thote on hand was the prospect of a conflict oyer the admission of cer tain democratic senators elect, and it early became known that the republi cans. in default of auy caucus plan of action, had concluded to follow the lead of their members of the committee on privileges and elections. These had been in informal consultation, it was understood, and had reached the con clusion to make no opposition to the admission of Mr. Turpie, of Indiana, but to object to the admission of Mr. Faulkner, of West Virginia, on the grouud that there were conflicting cre dentials from that state. The general opinion was that there would be no deadlock, and that the course of open ing proceedings, would not be broken. The galleries were early crowded to overflowing. Mrs. Cleveland, clad in a custom of dark green, with Mrs, Gilder, Mrs. Kingsford and several other ladies, occupied the seats reserved for the family of the president in one of the private galleries. The diplomatic gallery was filled by members of the various legations, the front seat being occupied by the Chi nese minister, his secretaries and asso ciates. The minister wore a magnifi cent robe of light blue satin and his companions were clad as richly, though iu more subdued colors. The proceediugs of the day were o pened with prayer by.tbe chaplain, the ltev. J. G. Butler, lie asked that the senators might be endowed with wis dom and strength to meet the honora ble a.ul trying responsibilities of the day and all the duties that gather a round them. The piesidei.t of the senate, Mr. Ingals, then took the chair and called the senate to older. He said he would now place before the senate his certilicate of election, the certificate of appointment, and other papers re ceived since the adjournment. In the swearing in of senators-elect. Senator Hoar made objection to the ad ministration of the oath to Mr. Faulk ner, of West Virginia, uniil certain questions to whioh his credentials gave rise could be passed upon by the com mittee ou privileges and elections. As u member of that committee be as suied the senate that the matter should receive the immediate attention of that committee ao that if the gentleman was found to bo entitled to his seat, be could entvr upon his duties without unnecessary delay. IN TIIE HOUSE. Long before Hie hour of noon the galleries of the bouse were crowded to their utmost capacity with spectators drawn together to witness the opening scenes of a new congress. The ladies were in the majority, and their gay costumes lent an air of animation to the chamber. On the floor members congregated and exchanged gieetings andcongratulations.Thi re were very f w floral decorations upon the desks of members, though Congressman. T, J. Campbell, of New Yoik, was favored with a horseshoe of roses and carna tions, the gift of the Oriential club, of New York. At noon the clerk of the house called the body to order, and was about to call the roll when a crank in the gsllerv started a salvation army hymn, whioh he sang lustily until rjected by a door keeeper, which was not until several minutes had elapsed, as the crowd im peded the cfllcer in his attempt to reach the musician. The clerk then proceeded with the roll call amid a good deal of confusion, caused by gentlemen renewing old ac quaintances or forming new ones auiid much talk and laughter. The pages were kept busy carrying belated bou quets and floral designs to the proper recipients. Miscellaneous News. Null Works Shut Down.

PENNSYLVANIA LABOR TROUB LES. The Lehigh Strikers lluve Issued an Appeal to the Publle for Aid. PHILADELPHIA, Dec. s.—The com tnittee on appeal of the striking Lehigh Valley coat miners Sunday night issued an appeal to Ihe public in which they relate at length the history of themanv efforts of tire miners during the past two years, to secure arbitration on their demands for increased wages and the positive refusal of the operators to grant tire requests for a conference. They state that tire officials of the Philadelphia and Reading coal and iron company met the representatives of the employes of that company.and the re suit was a satisfactory compromise by which the miners received an advance of eight per cent, lu conclusion, the address says: "During ail this time the operators of the Middle Lehigh region,the Lehigh coal and navigation company, the Le high Valley company and the Mineral Mining company refused to meet com mittee appointed by organized labor, and resisted any claims made to an ad vance. All efforts to arbitrate the question on the part of the miners proved useless, and the public symp athy is now appealed to interfere in be half of suffering labor. WANT A NKW ORGANIZATION. Chicago's Trying to Organize Another Order of thc.K. of L. CHICAGO,Dec.2 —The chief movers in the attempt to organize another order of Knights of Labor have issued a circular addressed to the local assem blies of the Knights of Labor in Cook county, requesting them to co-operate in reorganizing tfie order on an honest and substantial basis. The plan is for each assembly to refuse to pay further tribute to the general assembly unless an itemized account of the receipts and expenditures of the general assembly be presented to the local assemblies. - The circular is sent out from theheadquart ers of the provisional committee, of which Charias F. Seib is secretary. In the preamble the members of the com mittee say that they wish to sever their connection with the order.because they are "indignant at the usurpation of power, tl.e gross violations of the laws of our order by those high in authority; disgus'ed with those whose loyalty to the present ring lias been gained by the pickings they receive as a reward for their service; incensed at the fawning sycophants who crawl on their knees in slavish submission to the most corrupt, the most hypocritical, the most auto cratic and tyrannical clique that ever controlled any labor organization." Follow jfig tliis all sorts of charges are made against the general officers and general assembly. It is asserted that the order is run by a eing.lhe membeis of which care nothing for workingmen. The ring, as the circular says, exists together for the purpose of holding the salaried positions. CURED'BY HEROIC MEANS. A Suflerer'from'Ncurulglu bus the Of ifendlngiNerves Cut Out. BOSTON, Dec. I.—Dr. Potter, of this city, who is one of the most skillful surgeons in the country, performed a remaikable surgical operation a few days ago The patient was a man of about Qfty or sixty years of age, whose existence for many years has been simply one of torture on account of liisexlremt suffering from neuralgic pains in his face, or rather upon one side of it. It was decidrd that the only remedy—a heroic one—was the removal of the dis eased nerves from the face after the patient was etherized. Dr. Porter made an incision at the angle of the jaw where it hinges into the skull. The jaw bone being laid bare,the part where the mental foramen is located was trepanned or drilled away. The doctor then proceeded to catch hold or the diseased nerve, and by a slight exertion pulled it out of the fo ramen.Next an incision was made under neath the eye.laying bare the nerve, which was also pulled out, or rather as much of it as the docter could get. A similar operation was performed just over the eye. In this way the greater part patients of tbe face, which had caused the much pain aud annoyance, was re moved. The operation lasted fully an hour, and resulted in a most satisfactory man ner. The whole network of nerves in the check was not. destroyed, as that would be impossible, but the main dis eased parts were removed, so that the patient will not probably again ex perience the excruciating torture of acute neuralgia in the part, although he will not have the control as formerly over that side of his face.
