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

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.

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.
