MA1HNE DISASTER.
A loaded canal boat belonging to the Susque
hanna Coal Co., was carried over the Nantl
coke dam on Friday afternoon. It was in tow
of the steam tug when It became unmanageable
and the tug cut loose and saved Itself. The
boat passed over the dam diagonally and was
not much injured. Two men, named Fox and
Carter were upon it when it passed over. It
will be unloaded and floated to Northumber
land and put into the canal. There were two
boats attached to tho tug, one of which was
manned in a masterly manner by young Kucli
of Berwick, who managed to land his boat a
short distance above the dam, Record of the

At St. Paul's Episcopal church the ser

and interesting character. An early service
was held at six o'clock which was largely at
tended. Tho service consisted of morning pray
er up to Ihe Litany. At half past ten oMock
the remainder cf the morning services was
read, with sermon, and Holy Communion. The
church was beautifully decorated with flowers,
and the sentence "Christ the Lord ha" risen in
deed" was stretched across the frunt of the chan
cel. An exquisite floral mound surmounted
the baptismal font, anil hanging baskets wure
suspended in the arches of the ceiling. The
music at these two services was excellent, under
the direction of Prof, Hoffman.
In the evening the Sunday school held their

A WORD TO DOUUTEIl''.
There is a good old English maxtm that
leaches us to "believe every man honest until
we know htm lo be a villian." American cus
tom seems to have reversed this law and ap
pears to make every man n villian until he has
provetl himself an honest man, As with peo
ple so with things. Every nrtiile i laced in
our markets can lay claim to popular favor
upon intrinsic merit and value alone. Contin
ued popularity, therefore, is proof positive
of intrinsic excellence. Dr. Pierce's Family
Kemcdies are far more iopular to day than
ever before. The people have tested them and
know them to be genuine remedies for the dis
ease they are recommended to cure. The Gold
en Medical Discovery and Purgative Pellets
are the best alterative, tonic and cathartic reiit'
edies that can be used in chronic diseases of
the stomach and liver. The woild'Wide popu
larity of the Favorite Prescription, as a never
failing remedy for Female Di-eases, would have
alone secured to ils discoverer the fame be has
bo richly won. Dr. Sage's Catarrh llemedy; of
which Dr. Pierce is also proprietor, is recom
mended bv those who have tested ils virtues as
a safe and reliable remedy for catarrh in ils
worst form.

The Ohio Scale Works of Cincinnati have
just patented and are now introducing to tho
public a Handsomely finished Family Scale,
an article that has always been needed in cery
household, and in a communication nddresscd
to tho publishers of this paper the proprietors
ask us to refer them to some reliable party, to
introduce it lor them to the people of this
County. It is seldom that n new articlo steps
so suddenly into universal favor. Housekeep
ers are loud in its prnisc, it is always ready,
there nro no weights to get lost or to bo hunted
up, is reliable, and will not get out of order.
The description of them is a handsome base
surrounded by a column in which works a spir
al spring so scientifically adjusted as to weigh
anything up to twelve pounds with perfect ac
curacy, on the top of the column is the plat
form on which the articles to be weighed are
placed, and they have an adjustable indicator
so that you can tako the tare of any vessel you
may use in weighing, giving you the exact net
weight. Housekeepers at onco see their value
in weighing fruits, sugars and other ingredients
used in preserving, cooking, etc., or in testing
the weights of purchases from others.
Tho Scales are made of Jlras, nro highly
polished and nro finished in a skillful mnnuer
They are very attractive and take tho eyo of
every one who sees tlum.

The Lenten season, always vigorously ob
served In Washington, is just over, and the
gay and fashionable areeurferjing from their
temporary seclusion, in beiimilul, almost as
freili, and far more interesting than the lilies
of the field. That text of Scripture about
the comparative inferiority of Solomon's
ward-robe would lo"e its point, if the com
parison were noiv made to the disparagement
of a modem fashionable young ladies' toilet,
for her lint may bo covered with artificial
lilies of tin! fields far morediirable, and more
liken lily than the lily it.-clf. While the
tints nf the ocean and hues of tho sky, in
color though varied, in be.iuty may vie, they
can't come up to the dress which last night
she wore, bought fur a mero Irilllo at a 7th
street store. 1 am writing now about the
Treasury girl, not any particular Treasury
girl, but the general girl who works for the
government in marble halls, counting notes,
postago stamps, writing lorins, etc., etc.
Why they should be called girls! cannot ex
plain, because nianyot them lire no lunger
ouug. Since the recent unpleasantness be
tween Mrs. Oliver and her aged suitor, men
are in the habit of looking at the Treasury
girls with a timorous iipprehen-iun that is
quite unique, as if each tine nf them might
bo a dangerous and explosive crypotogain,
Mrs. Oliver, now thoroughly advertlseel, has
taken to the lecture field to swell the title of
vile aud vapid oratorial drivel. Let it swell
the sooner it slops over In all inundating dis
gust tho better. The pictorial journals are
much to blame lor the notoriety given to
uninteresting vulgar men and women. The
mi called "Mrs. Oliver" is homely, common,
ami iu every way unattractive' ; but th- Po
lice Gazelle, Frank I.cMe's, Jlitricr's W'eek'n
and apers of a like character haveide.it z d
and dignified her lace, and I'rrm, and habit,
until ex-rienator Cameron hiinsell would
not know her. It is a pity that subscribers
do not know how utterly worthies, as repre
sentations, the portraits and indeed nearly
all pictures in thee journals are. They ch r
ily pimps, prostitute, while they malig
nantly ciricatiiro distinguished men. Thtir
influence. ib.ie, mendacious anil corrupting
tar beyond that of many puhiiwi ion, the
circulation ot which is prohibited by penal
statute.
Tho are n i of debate, ha been transferred
from the lioii-e to ihe Senate, but it is .Mill
on the-army bill, and it is siidii will ion
iums for three weeks. It will certainly con
linue lis long in the UepiMlictii .-eiuinrs
cine to make speeches. There is no patent
process to stop debate' iu the Senate. More
than one such contest lias ended only tl.nuijih
utter cthaiHtioii not only of "the subject but
of the debitor. There seems at proseut to
be but liltlo real interest iu the debate. The
public mind has loni; since been made up on
the merit nf the question. The press lias
presented the subject in every possible light,
and now tho only thing thai remain uiuin-siu-rid
and interesting is the great Bulneri
an question. "What will be do with it 1'
Will he .'ii it or veto it ? and if he ahull
veto it, what will they do with it ? The re is
as yet no new light on these; questions,
and their importance connected with the lact
that they will not be auswere 1 for at least a
month makes the debates very tedious. There
is a very strong determination on the part of
some members of Congress to introduce leg
islation outside of that for which lhospeci.il
session was called. This is of course very
popular in the District. General legislation
will prolong the session, anil stay the begi
ra which usually makes Washington a "de
serted village" after the middle of June.
Many new bill have been introduced Into
