about time the gold came out.

TrE Penn’a legislature has been in
session ten weeks, and as yet not a sin-

THE proposed new tariff will put up
the price of woolen goods from $1 to
$1.35. That's what you get but didn’t
want.
IT is estimated in Havana that 80,

in Cuba by the insurgents or have
died of yellow fever, smallpox and ma-
laria.

IT appears the M. E. church where
our state legislature holds its sessions
is ample in all respects for that pur-
pose. Then why not buy the church
for $100,000 and not build a new capi-
tol to cost millions besides saving
$100,000 of the insurance ?

Here's a state of things ! Gen, Mose-

was cordially received by him !! And
not a Republican newspaper shouts

Gov. Hastings has recommended
that the State build its Capitol in sec
tions, one building at a time. The in-
stallment plan has several merits—it
would fit the conditions of the State |
Treasury, satisfy the canons of archi- |
tectural art, and best of all, afford
small opportunities for the jobbery
that would be pretty sure to thrive]
upon any colossal plan.

It is a true old German saying, Gro- |
se Diebe haengt man, und Kleine]
laeszt man laufen. For robbing a man |
of forty cents Wm. Jeffrey was taken |
to Bing Sing prison a few days ago to]
serve a sentence of twenty years, im-
posed upon him by Couuty Judge
Lent. A month ago Jeffrey, while in
a restaurant at Peekskill assaulted the
proprietor and robbed him of 40 cents,
Bardsley stole millions and was par-
doned after being in the penitentiary
few years.
Rev. Dr. Bwallow is still on the fly.
The libel suits in which certain State
officials are plaintifis, and the editor
of the Pennsylvania Methodist, defen-
dant will be called in the Dauphin
County Quarter Sessions to-day. Dr.
Swallow's counsel have been in con-
sultation for two days and are prepar-
ing for a strong fight. They say the
other side will get all the notoriety
and evidence they want, and ridicule
the threatened proceedings for con-
tempt in the Legislature.
Apropos of the late death of Mrs.
Henry Ward Beecher, it is curious to
reflect that Mrs. Theodore Tilton ia yet
alive, though a great sufferer. She
was blind for many years (from ecata-
racts), but owing to successful opera-
tions, can see now and lives in Brook-
lyn with her old mother. Theodore
Tilton lives in Paris and wriles for
newspapers; tho few Americans know
or even see him. One of his daugh-
ters is married in Chieago and the oth-
er teaches school in Brooklyn.

THE rebels in Cuba are confident of
success. Under date of Feb. 24, Gen.
Ruis Rivera, commander of the Cuban |
patriot forces in the Province of Pinar |
del Rio, writes to Senor Palma, the
Cuban delegate in New York, as fol-
lows : “Be at ease as to our success in
the present campaign. ‘The dry sea
son is about to end, and we occupy the
same positions as when Gen. Weyler
came to the province at the head of
his big army. If there is any change
among us it is for the better. Our sol-
diers have become veterans ; they are
more sure now of our final triumph
than they ever were. In my opinion
no Spanish general, no Spanish army,
1s able to pacify Pinar del Rio.
