Tin: hearini?of the petition for a writ of error in the cases of the CIucag An archis's came up befi ra the full bnch of the Supreme Court of the I'nited States at Weshir.cton, on Friday last. Mr. I'ryor. of New Yoik, stated two poiuts upon which he relied as fltitli'Ment to warrant the gianting of the w rit, and after a short colli nuy 'letween him nnd Chief Justice. Waite, an cider was made that Mi case should bi taken up for final argument on yesterday. The ar guments would protabiy last through two or three days, and we will.Le able to announce the result in our next wetk'd issue. At the K lection held in Baltimore on Wednesday last for Mayor r.nd city councils, the Democrats elected Ii trobe. th-ir can.iida'e for Maor, ty a uaaj.irity of 4 .-,, a gain of 2,fM since the city election two years ago. The election v. as one of the most exciticg and hotly contested that ti'er took place in 1? tltimore, and the ltj'publicans were confident of winnirg a victory which would enable them nt xt year to carry Maiv'ard for their candidate for tho Presidency. All their calculations, however, failed Ua'.tiraore is still Democratic and the vote of Maryland next ye.tr is as certain to be Democratic as th vo'.e of Vermont is certain to be liepuulicaii. At the conclusion of Mr. Cleveland's speech at Atlanta repeated calls were made for (iovernor (Jordon. Iu re spmse the Governor arose aud proposed, "Three cheers for Mrs. Clevelard, which were given with a wild enthusi asm. The multitude, however, were determined to have a speech fioni the itoveriior, and in response to prolonged calls he came forward and sa:d : My Fellow Countrymen I will do nothing more than join you in the loud acclaim that trembles upon this South ern air and thrills our very bring in welcome to a Democratic President. Prolonged and enthusiastic cheering. I join each and all of you lu the procla mation which your hearts utter that we have in our midst the "Man of Desti ny" without a Waterloo in the past or the future. tJreat cheering. J Tiik important fact is telegraphed from London that Ptincess Beatrice, the youngest datijjhter of (ue?n Victoria, and w ift of a your.g Dutchman known as Prince Ilnry of IJ ittenberg, has been delivered of a daughter. Oil this addi tional otraw placed upon the heavily laden b.ick" of ISritish tax payers the New York Wrhl remarks : "Oa the birth of Princess Beatrice's first baby, fourteen months ago, tvueen Viccoria nominated the happy father to a Lieu tenant Colonelcy in the Uritish army. Simultaneously with the announcement of the birth of a second Uattenberg comes Ihe news that the Sovr?ign has promoted her fortunate son-in-law to a lull Cjlone'.cy and made him an aide on her personal staff. At this rate of progression Prince Ilenry will soon push the D ike of Cambridge from the command of the British army. A couple of pain of twins wcu'd, no doubt, do the business." Tub following fiom the New York correspondence of the Philadelphia i--on', shows the singularly expensive raaunei in w hich Henry George's "Anti Poverty Society" is run. "Tim orgaLization has three large rooms at Cor. per Union at SI, Too rent, where a secretary, who receives S.I.im) a year, resides. His poverty is thus abolished. An Assistant. Secretary re ceives J2.00O, and ?l.:f 0 is expended on tbtee clerks and boys. Pamphlets, ora tors, stationery, gas snd other items of expenditure swell these sums largely, and while no one knows where the money comes from it is evident that the anti-poverty dode Ja one tbat pays. It also costs several hundred dollars to hire the Academy of Music for Sunday night meetings, and the collections do not come up to the cost. The sale of certificates of membership at fl each must be going on at a lively rale to give uch large profits." '1 lie IommI j- tlrket. We have assumed in trie present cum pai;n. s we a! as a have heretofore done, tur, every Ilrmocrat will support the county ticket which baa been nom inated in accordance with the establish ed m3ge4 of th t putv, unless s .me sound and overwhelming reason exists folly justifyirg Mm ic his refusal to do i so. w hen a man is nominated for a county rfil: according to th method adop'td at a popular election by bis party, he is entitled to a slid snpport, nnlfss.i is clearly iniomprden or rro cured his nomination through fraudulent ore irrupt means. Testing the different county candii!x's by this common sense rule, is any one of them ucC: fora faith ful and satisfactory discharge of the du ties or thetfliee for which be bas been nominated. No such charge has been ! made l v anv fair minded man and none caubemsJj with the least regard for the truth. Neither, so far as we know, has it U-en imputed to any of them tbat bis nomination was brought about by fraudulent or corrupt practices. In addition to all thjs the personal charac ters of the nominees cannot be assailed auccesif ul!y, for the reason that each of them ei j iys the contidence and rerpect of the community in which he resides ami where he is presumed to le best known. Thus measuring fully up to the old and :pprowd .1 ffersonisn standaid of "honesty" and "competency,'" it is the pliin and imperative duty of every I)mocrat to eive the ticket which he himself helped to nominate, a willirg and enthtisi.is'.is support. Xo mefeUT or more dishonorable act can be com mitted t a man calling himself a lJfm ccrai than t't attend the primary elec tion, vote for his own favorite candidate for a particular llie, tha candidate having publicly nVdeil himself to abide the result, and then at the gene ral electi on vote for th It-publican can didate simply because his own man, who bad the sains fair and equal chance of success as the other aspirants, was de feated. Ar.y Democrat who will so vote and thereby weaken or possibly dis rupt the orgamziticn of bis party is without the sludow of excuse for bis conduct. lVrtv success at an election in any county is a powerful motive to active participation in the campaign, and especially so when the candidates on the ticket have baen fairly nominated and are men of fltnesj, honesty, and of good character. We trust therefore that the leading and active Democrats in every election district in the county will make it certain that a unitod vote is polled on Eext Tuesday week for the present deserving and regularly nomi nated county ticket. I.v the address lately issued by Thomas V. Cooper, Cbairman or thn liepublican state Committee, he public ly charged that the saloon keepers, brewers aud other evil minded and wick ed persons had made u? a purse of f 200, 000, and that the money was being used by the Democratic .State Committee to carry the November election. Cooper knew that the charge was utterly false when he penned it. He is. however, one of those peculiarly constituted par tisans who has no sort of respect for the truth and who will instinctively resort to a lie, no matter how glaring and Im probable if ho thinks it will subserve his dirty purpose. Dallas Sanders, Chairman, of the Democratic State Committ-e, nails 'ooper's Irazen lie to the counter in a circular, as follows : Pmt.ApEr.rniA. October IS. 1S7 To tiik Peoi-leok Pennsylvania ': A circular published in to dav's Philadelphia Tanrs from Mr. Cooper, Chairman of the Kpublican State Com miittee, states that the saloon keepers and anarchists of Pennsylvania bare raised a corruption fund of J200.000. "which is beiog used through and by the Democratic organization." The Democratic organization has not been off-red, has not received and will not receive one dollar from aay associa tion, organization or otherwise in aid or any of its candidates, except from indi vidual members or its own party. Mr. Cooper has been misinformed, imposed opon or deliberately falsified whn he makes such a rtmen M r. cooler's visible fears for tbt State ' and City tici.fis are not an excuse fori such an unf.:niil-d charge. j DALLAS SANDERS, i Chairman D-mocratic Srate Committee. Eli in It. Wasiiui-rnk. ex-Minister I i i , . i io i lance. u:ea in uicago on .Saturday last. He was born in Oxford county, Maine, in 1S1C, and was one of eleven sons two of whom have been Governors of their respective Slates (Maine and Wisconsin) and four of whom represent ed as many States in Congress. When the late war broke out Mr. "Washburne was in Congress and he and Grant, the latter leirx then out of the army, both resided in Galena, Illinois. U was at Washbuine's instance tbat Grant raised a Company for the war in Galena aLd reported with tbem at theCapitol of the S'ate. It was said afterwards that Washburne had "invented" Grant. When Grant was elected President in 1S0S he made Washburne Secretary of State ar.d be beld that office only a few weeks when he was appointed Minister toFrance. Soon after he arrived in Paris the war between Prussia and France broke ou and Mr. "Washburne distinguished himself as the only foreign Minister who remained In Taris during the memorable seige of that city care fu'ly attending to tne interests of his country. He was regarded as an able man and bia personal character was without spot or blemish. AFTrn the adjournment or the Min neapolis Convention last week of the Knights ot Labor, about thirty five dele gates, representing thirteen S:ates, met in Chicago, according to previous ar rangement, and resolved to bring about a reorganizition of the Order. A circu lar was prepared, which has been sert to everv Assembly in the country, oddres?nl to "the rank and file." It is an arraignment of Mr. Powderly aud the other General officers who stand by him.

The men who are at the head of th.s Chicago movement composo th6 Radical or S cialistlc element in the organiza tion and seem to ba intent only on one thirg getting the offices for them selves. The most prominent members of the order regard tbe democstritlon as cf littls moment. Judire lllttfs Speech at Memphis. The formal Speech of welcome to Pnsdeut Cleveland at Memphis on last Saturday week was delivered by Judge II. T. Eliett, of tbe Chancery Court of Tennessee, a gentleman of high aumdirg in that S:ate. A few momenta before Mr. Cleveland conclud ed bis remtrks in reply. Judge E'.leit. who had been standing with bia hat off close to the President, sat down and was overcome by the beat. In a few min uses be was dead, but the immense crowd who had followed the President to the Cotton and Merchants' Exchange knew nothing of the tad occurrence. Judge Eilrttt's speech is exceptionally appropriate and eloquent. He said : You have recently pn tleipated in a cele bration of the 100: h aniverary of th for mation of tbe Constitution of the Uoited States, ar.d you tre beheld the multitudes of our fellow countrymen flocking fioiu every direction to tbe spot where ibat Instru ment was fashioned, and renewing their vows of feattv at the shrine of that erandest monun.ent of butnao wisdom. Let roe say. bit. that the Southern heart was In full sym pathy wltd tbat Inierestlne occasion, and tbat nuwnere all throuab t.Ms broad land wlil you rind more loyalty to th Constitu tion of the United States, ao1 to the (jtov ernnient created by it. than among tbe people of tne Southern States. D'flerecC'-s or opinion a to its true theory ard Its proper construction la tome points existed rruui iM very creation, and contro versy has often been angry and bitter. One creat and Imoortant interest in the progress of things became sectionalized. and out of it rose a question ot Constitutional intreprtativii which was regarded by South ern people as so vital to their riicht and in terests that they committed their solution to the arbitration or arms ; but. 5tr. President, they have bowed to the stern logic of events nntll they they have, in a frank and manly way, accepted th result or the struggle as a final settlement or all questions in dispute: and they have since labored with rare cour age, fortitude and cheerfulness to accommo date themselves to their new conditions, to reconstruct their broken fortunes, and to contribute as far aa possible to the general prosperity and happiness of the whole country. As one practical result accnrophlshed by the conflict Ihe theory ot tbe rUht or a State to withdraw from tbe Federal compact was overthrown and the Indestructibility or the American Cnlon wa established on tbe firmest foundations. The chief element of discord has been removed rorever. and though questions will continue to arise about which men may differ, and differ earnestly. It is settled beyond appeal that ror all abases and grievances tbat ma? arise from tna ac ti n of the General Government the remedy mut hereafter be sought within the pale of th Union and under the forms or establish ed Uwr. There I-a distinguishing feature of this occasion which invents it with peculiar inter est. Heretofore Presidential progresses have usually been of a political character, and nave been without the grace and churm afforded bv the female presence and influ ence. In thefe respects the present event i exceptional. We all rejoice that you are accompanied by Mrs. Cleveland, and we are g'nil of an opportunity to lay at her feet our tnnute of homage and admiration. To her fellow-countrywomen her presence Is espec ially crattfiing. They are proud to. have such a representative of their sex as the pre sid ng spirit or the Kxecnt;v Mansion and at th head or society at the National Capi tal, and to know that In the discharge of all her duties she is constantly winning "golden opinions from all sorts of peopl-:" On be luli' of the ladi -s of Memphis 1 beg vou to present to tcr their cordial and respectful ea utatioas. It Don't Exactly Prohibit. The Prohibitionists will find cold com fort in the confession of Governor Bod well, or Maine, tbat he is practically powerless to enfore the T'rohibition law in tbe State of its birth. Maine was tbe pioneer in the Sght against the evils of intemperance by mear.s of Prohibition: Neal Dow succeeding in getting a law through the Legislature as long zn as l'il forbidding th ea'e of spirituous liquors within the borders of the State, acd for 3; years Mtine has been nomi nally gov rned under that law. That it was not enforced has bn we!! known, but Governor Pad we 11 :s the first ruter of the State who Las confirmed the fact. He says I am trying to enforce Prohibition in Maiue, but I find it is the b'ggest job tbat I ever undertook in my life. Tbe law is fairly well enforced in the rural districts, and receives the support of the community, but in the larger cities and towns in is impossible to enforce it. as the liquor men defy it. ar.d in many instances the local authorities conrpire with the violators and accept bribes from them. Tbe Portland Vx, which has always ren the champion of Prohibition in Maine, insists that after an earnest and 'aithful trial, it has been a failure : tbat Prohibition does not prohibit ;that while the laws are rigid and comprehensive against the sale of limmta s i if enforced to drive everv bodv out of tbe business, no way has been foond to enforce them practically, as they do not meet the support of a hearty public sentiment. Iowa'a expetience with Prohibition has not been altogether a pleasant one. It has involved the State in avast num ber of law suits, excited intense local irritations, caused, in a single county, over 4.000 searches of private stores and dwellings, of which 3.0i0 were railures increased public taxation, and in no manner decreased the sale or drinking cf leer or liquors. The circular recent ly issued by the most respectable citizens of Desmmnes. who originally voted for the prohibitory law, denounces it as a failure, a source of vexatious litigation, and an enormous expense to the peop'e of that State. Pittsburg Post. Mr. Gladstone at Nottingham. It has been reserved to Mr. Gladstone to make in his seventy-ninth vear what will probably he herearter considered the greatest speech or his life. His address at Nottingham has not only consolidated, strengthened and filled with renewed confidence tbe Liberal party, but has compelled the conressed admiration or bis political enemies. The London Times says : "It is a fact beyond question that Mr. Gladstone's oratorical perrormanco beats the record of all statesmen who ever attempted to govern a country by the Rift of speech. We stand amazd at the fecundity of language and the physical endurance displayed by a man completing seventy eight yars." Mr. Gladstone's powers are wonder ful. But his strength is not that alone of "fecundity of language5' or of ideas or or "physical endurance." or of all together. It is also that of sincerity of purpose and or truth. "Thrice is he armed that hath his quarrel jut." The motive of bis speech was justice to Ireland and the removal thereby of a cause that was detrimental to Ihe inte grity of the Empire. His words were not those of one about to enter upon a doubtful strire for a good purpose, but of one who had already a grasp on vic tory. He said : '-We have stood by one another in darkness acd ttcrm, and we are not likely to flinch when the morning has dawned upon us and when we see the sun mounting the eky." The Nottingham meeting has been made a memorable one. It not only ratifud tbe assertion of the chtef sneaker tbat th Liberal party had "deliberately and definitely inscribed upou it banners the national cause or Ireland." hut for mulated by resolutions the intention, the Irish question once settled, to limit a man to one vote, and to disestablish tbe S'ate churches in Scotland and Wales Mr. Gladsi one himself stated that be would advocate sweeping away the law or entail bodily. The Liberal party is firm n its ftet now if it ever was. V 1 . 11 orZJ.

The close of President Cleveland's great Western and Southern tour was as satisfactory as its begioniDg was au spicious. Every Incident or a Presiden tial Progress which lasted three weeks, and wbicb was clouded by but one un toward event, attracted public interest. Tbe whole country may be said to bave participated in this tour of Us popular Chier Magistrate. "While there was in tbe demonstrations much or tbat curios ity which would attract crowds to ace any President ot the United States, the enthuiasm with which President Cleve land was greeted ry the Republican communities of the Northwest and by tbe Democrats of tbe South bore nnmistakeable evidence of bis strong bold on the nation's good will. So great are tbe proofs of his popularity tbat if the election for President should take place to morrow few can doubt be would b chosen by an overwhelming majority. What may occur in the course of a year to turn this popular tide it is not easy to conjecture; but it may be confidently predicted that the people's regard will not be lost within tbat time by any act of his own. President Cleveland Is not one of those so called "magoetic men" who attract multitudes of followers, often without reason ; but he posseees the stay ing qualities wbica inspire aud retain public confidence. lie has succeeded in establishing a thorough understand ing with the masse of the people by i showing tbat be believes in tbem and is in entire) sympathy witn tbeir highest alms. The country is convinced of bis honesty of purpose, and of the strong common sense which be brings to bear upon tbe affairs of bis administration without ostentation er flourish. It sees tbat be is determined to be President of the whole people not of a party. There are hundreds of stump orators who could make a better speech than any made by Cleveland, but it is doubt ful whether there is another public man in tbe land who could make so favora ble an impression upon the countrymen of all parties as that made by President Cleveland during his tour. No brilliant rhetoric corruscated In his speeches ; they were, indeed, as pie in as they could well bave been, but they were admira bly adapted to tbe occasion. If it be true, as President Cleveland's enemies have asserted, tbat it was a political tour, they must concede tbat be covered h s purpose with great cleverness and skill. Throughout his journeyings not a sentiment escaped his lips tbat could have betrayed such a design. In bis numerous speeches he never uttered a word calculated to win partisan support or to provoke partisan resentment. Horace Greeley's matchless spiking tour was made in a candidacy for the Presidency. Mr. Blaine when on a similar campaign drew thousands of enthusiastic partisans to hear partisan harangues. President Cleveland'? route was lined by an enthusiastic people, and if be bad a political motive he managed with consummate art to let nobody into his secret. The upshot of it all is tbat Preside! t Cleveland returns to the White House with a strong accession to the popularity that belonged to bim when be left it three weeks ago. Whatever some Dem ocratic politicians may say or think in regard to his course, they recognize the fact that any attempt to supplant him would be impracticable. From hints made by newspapers hostile to Cleve land, it is evident that a hope is enter tained that in case tbe Democrats should lose New York in November by reason of the Ilenry George movement, and because of the apatbv incident to an off year, a reactionary movement in behalf or a new candidate might be successful. But tha result would be likely to utter ly defeat such a calculation and would only intensify the popular demand for Cleveland's nomination. In the present political situation be is regarded as in dispensable by the Democratic half of the nation, and a very considerable por tion of the Republican moiety is fast humming persuaded of tbe same thing. l'hila. Itford. JrDfiE TnrRMAX delivered his first sneech in the Ohio campaign at Kenton, Hardin county, on Saturday last. In the Iseginning of bis speech he stated that Eftv-four years ago he stood on the site of Kenton, then an almost impene trable wilderness, "a beardless youth earning his daily biead by his occupa tion as a land surveyor." Of Mr. Cleveland he said : There Is one man I want to speak about because I know him right welL He Is a man that yon have heard of much, and that man Is Grover Cleveland, President of the United States. (Ireat and prolonged applause. J Now. my rriend, I bare seen a good many Presidents in my long life. 1 have known several or them personally, and I have read the history or the administration or them all. 1 have seen and I know, aud I think 1 know him run well. t. rover Cleveland, our Presi dent or the United States, and on my honor as a roan who is bound to tell vou the truth. If ever a roan was bound to tell the truth, to his fellow-men. I don't believe that a more honest, braver, truer man ever filled the Presidential chair or the United States. Prolonged appiaue.J It was said that If he should be elected President the eountry would alt be ruined. Well.even my friend John Sherman agrees that the sun does rise yet f laughter . and that the rain does fall and' the corn dos grow , and Jonn's fences are in as good con dition as they ever were renewed laughter, notwithstanding Grover Cleveland Is Presi dent or the nation. And. mv friends. I nay be Is an honest, brave man. He Is more than that ; be is a man of far more ability than people who don't know him may suppose. He has that supreme faculty, the best or all faculties, which we designate by the term common sense." Applause. If he Is not a level-headed, common-sense, honest man. then I am no Judge of men. Ap plause. 1 Xow I am glad to find that every day that re lives be grows In the estimation of the American people, and my firm belier is that when bis four years are at an end they will say to him, "You have done well when we put such and such trusts In your hands. We have tried you for roar years and round you will do well, and now you may take your seat for another rour years." Great applause. The conclusion of the grand old man's speech was toucbiug. Tbe meeting was an immense one, fully 10.000 people having assembled in the town to hear Thurman. In closing he said : My friends, this Is probablv the last polit ical speech I shall ever make. I don't know. In a pretty tough old fellow, and It may be that I will be wandering about here, like a ghost on the bank or Styx, ten years rrora now talking Democracy to too. I swear you will never hear me talking anything else. LAuehter and applause. But I am inclined to think that this is th last politi cal speech I ever shall mace. And ir it is, in my parting words to you I beseech vou to stand by tbe great principles that Thomas Jefferson laid down rorthe American people, that Andrew Jackson enforced, and tht have made this country one or the greatest and freest and most lovable countries upon which th sun ot God shines today. Be thankful that you have such a country ; be thankful that you have such a government : and never forget that when you . come to sift it down ; to analyze it. to boil it, you will find that everv principle tbat has con tributed to your happiness Ua principle of the Democratic party.

Tbe bead of tbe family had to sive ber over to tbe husband in the presence of witnesses, and it is rrom this that we now haye the custom or giving away the bride. When compelled to travel all night the Siberian natives always make a practice or stopping just before sunrise and allowing their dogs to get sleep. Tbey argue that if a flog goes to sleep while it is yet dark, and wakes up and finds tbe sun shining, he will suppose that he bad a full night's rest, and will travel all day without thinking or be ing tired. One hour's stop, however, at any other time will be or no use whatever. In the Colorado desert, near Idaho, there Is a large bed or rock salt, and the Southern Pacific Railroad, in layine the track to tbe salt bed. has teen oblighed to grade the road ror 1.200 feet with blocks ot these crystals. This is the only Instance where the roadbed is laid and ballasted on salt. The sea which once rolled over this place dried up and left a vast bed of salt nearly SO miles long. Tbe supply is inex haustible and the quality excellent. Tbe potato bug made two simultaneous appearances In Germany this year one In Saxony and ooe- In Hanover. The German Government at once bad men at work, who carefully picked all the bugs and larva; off she plants. The stems of th6 vines were then cut off and placed in baskets lined with sacking, which were thoroughly soaked with benzine oil and buried deep in the ground. After this the land was plowed 12 or 14 inches deep and well harrowed, and tbe surface picked over for any Insects tbat misht be on it. Finally tbe land was sat urated with benzine oil. In one case eight acres and In tbe otLer three-quarters of an acre bad to be treated in this way. According to a telegram from Kingston.

Wheeler, the clock repairer of Mood us. Con., is prepared to meet death at anytime. Some time since he procured a chestnut log. bad it sawed into boards, and, after giving them tbe proper time for sea aonlng. took tbem to an undertaker and Instructed him to construct a coffin, nis measure was taken and now the article is finished and ready ror use. Mr. Wheeler bas tried It on and reports blmseir well pleased with It, and says it fits perrectly. The Intelligence or a dog was forcibly shown at Bridgeport. Conn., on Friday last. As James E. Hair was driving in from Mil ford in tbe afternoon with bis family bis lit tle child lost a shoe out of the wagon, and it was not discovered until some distance bad been traversed. The vehicle was turned about, when it was found that Mr. Hair's celebrated Llewellyn settler. Rock Belton. was following tbe waon with the shoe in bis mouth, and delivered it in safety to the people in tbe carriage, having picked it up on the road. This is but one of the fine specimens of dogs owned by Mr. Hair. Advices rrom tbe Indian Territory say that a tew days ago "Bud" Trainor. John Leece, "Joe" Miller and "Bill" Chuet, outlaws, took possession or Mr. Duck worth's store, 22 miles rrom Tahlequah. and held it tor three days, selling goods to those who would buy, reeding horses in the store on the counter, and runuing things their own way. They then set the store on fire, burning It down at a late hour in the night. Tbey then fired into a residence adjacent to the store, and as the women and children lied from the house ahot at tbem, after which they fired the dwelling, stable and corn crib. Two Boston business men. who are ameteur spoilsmen, went to Malna in ignor ance of the garni laws, four day to early too shoot deer. They did not make any 6ecret of tbeir purpose. By some means the trip got to the ears ot two game wardens, and when the bunting party arrived the watdens. were there In waiting, but they did not identify themselves as sucb, and rode forty miles into the wilderness with the Boston men. Tbe two parties camped near each other, and tbe wardens made them selves known. .The Boston hunters were taken into court and fined J1.800, or $000 apiece, for two deer they killed. And this was onlr four days before tbe law'was "off." As Edward Foss, a 40 year-old single man of Eau Claire, Wis., was out walking with several rriends the party met Miss Clara E. Foster, a girl or 19, who was drUing with R. C. Hine, a gentleman who Is a justice ot the peace. The conversation turned on marriage, and one of the party laughinely suggested tbat Mr. Fo?s and Miss Foster be married, as Miss Foster would only bave to drop the three laet letters of ber name and add an "s." The parties concurred, jokingly, and Mr. Hine performed the ceremony. Xext day the serious feature of the transaction dawned upi.n tbe girl and she l as since kept her room and wept bitterly, a divorce is talked of.

The Queen's jubilee has been tardily cele brated in a novel fashion at Denby Dale and bad it not been for tbe disorderly behavior or tbe people tbe event would bave been a complete success. Denby Dale has for a lone time been celebrated for its pies. In 1788 there was one baked in commemoration or the recovery or George III. ; another was baked in 1815 in honor of tbe peace ; another 'n 1846 in celebration or th6 repeal or the corn laws, and now a pie has been baked which is described as unequaled in tbe an nals or pie-baking. It Is recorded or the last pie tbat it was put on a platform, which gave way, and the pie slipped to tbe ground; that a crowd ot fifteen thousand people surged forward. A scramble ensued, and amid a wild turmoil the stage was utterly demolished and the pie flung to the winds Something like this, but not quite so bad, occurred at Denby Dale. A tremendous crowd of people flocked from Bradford. Iludertfield, Barnsley, Penistone and the small villaees within a radius ot eight or nine miles or Denby. Before noon tbe peo. pie took up a position outside the barriers which had been erected to keep off tbe crush, while the old people or the village or Denby Dale and the school children ot Denby. Der by Dale and Cumberworth were being served with portions or the pie. The baking took place in a special oven. Tbe pie was 8 Teet Io diameter snd 2 teet deep, and contained C4 6tone8 of flour, 1, 850 pounds of beef. 180 pounds of mutton. 160 pounds of veal. 180 pounds of lamb, 250 pounds or pork, l'0 pounds or lard, to pouuas J of butter. 32 couples of rabbits. 3 harts. 42 fowls, 40 pigeons, 12 grouse, 21 ducks. 4 plovers. 1 turkey, 5 geese and 100 small birds, together with 30 eggs and 40 stones or potatoes, 40 pounds of beer suet end 40 pounds or drippings. The baker was Mr. F. Workman, of Uallifax. Tbe pie weighed about 4.500 pounds. In tbe moruing it was taken on a stone cart, drawn by ten horses, to a field called Norman Paik. lent for tbe purpose. When tbe pie reached the field It was taken into an enclosure and left there for inspection. It was intended that when tbe old pecple and children had got seated, Mr. Henry Brierlj, tbe chairman of the com. mittee. should make a little speech, but this was cut short, for directly the pie had been taken under one end of the tent in which it was to be served to the reople, the strong wooden barriers against which the crowd pressed gave way, and multitudes rushed into the tent up to the stone cart, a scene of great contusion ensuing. In vain were the people appealed to. The stronger the ap peal, the more they rushed into the tent, and the pie crnst rapidly disappeared, beiug either given or forcibly taken away. It was not until a promise bad been made that ! wnen tbe old people and children bad been j served tbe pie should be brought into the field and distributed tbat the hungry mob ' could ba appeased. & QUIXN'S, Clinton Stair Pads, Stair Rods.
