Paiis en the Peine, hut any one visiting this store will say Oak Ilall
does better in quantity te select fteni, style aud make-up of goods,
though the ptiecs in the main are cheaper in Paris; because of the
cloths without duties, and the cheap labor of France. The people
here, however, think our prices are quite low enough, considering all
things. American Clothing outranks all ether throughout the world
for ical gracefulness. We have here none of the narrow-breasted and
contracted shouldered coats that arc se universal abroad. Seme of the
New Yerk Tailors who have opened branches in Paris ate among the
most popular artist-tradesmen thcie, and are well patronized.
The English and French open their eyes wide when told of the size
of the Oak Hall Clothing Itouse and its vast stock of ready goods for
Men aud l$os.
It is our purpose and hope always te have Philadelphia lead the re
tail clothing trade aud we are giving our best efforts te improve every
year en our cutting, patterns and workmanship. The character of ma
terials wc use is no longer au uncertain question. The pcople knew
that we are te be depended en for sound judgment (based en exper

would warrant higher rates, but our prices arc as reasonable as ever.

FEIDAY EVENING, OCT. 28, 1881.
Assassinations-.
Washington llcpublic.
Assassinations and murders of jaiersaud
men of prominence have been confined te
no particular age, nation or civilization.
Ambition, "envy, jealousy, cupidity, re
venge, fanaticism and disordered brains
Lave been the prevailing causps. Secret
assassinations, public murders, the subtle
work of poison, death at the hand of the
mob or by a band of conspirateis, all have
been the results of one or mere of the
causes enumerated. A brief sketch of a
few of the prominent cases recorded will
be hufneient te show hew few and small
the leasen in all cases have bceuin proper
tien te the enormity of the offences.
As far back as the year 1930 B. C. Feri
dun or Phridun, who was proclaimed King
of Persia, in the year 2010 13. C, aud was
celebrated for his wisdom, divided his
kingdom among Ins three sons. Te Tur,
the eldest, he gave the eastern division,
including India and Taitary, from which
it was called Turan and Turkestau. Te
Salme or Sclm he gave the western por
tion, including Asia Miner and Egypt,
bestowing the title " Kai-sav " en him,
from which probably is derived the pre
sent term " Kedive " or " Khedive." Te
Iran or Iiage, the youngest, he gave Per
sia proper, thence named " Iran," be
stowing the title of " Schah," which is
still letaiucd by Persian kings.
Jealousy en the part of Tur led te a war
betweec him and Iran, during which Iran
was assassinated by his two brothers.
His death was avenged by his son M:inu
giahr, who met Tur and Selin iu battle
and slew them, aud was .subsequently ap
pointed by Feiidum as his successor. In
the year 1237 B. ( Laius, a King of
Thebes, was slain by h:s son Gldipus,
afterward notetious in hiateiy for resolv
ing the enigmas efihc sphinx, becoming
King of Thebes and tnatrying his own
mother. Twelve jcmu later, 1204 B. C,
Phryxus was murdeted by the King of
Celchis. Amassa, who was appointed
captain of the host by Absalom when he
rebelled, was assassinated by Joab, whom
he succeeded iu the year 1022 B. C.
Romulus, famed in history as the builder
of Reme, was mutdered by the senators
71C B. C, after reigning thirty-seven
wnrs The hterv fflVCU out te ac-
count for his disappearance was that he
ascended te the sicy uunng a inunucr
storm. Xerxes the Great was assassinated
liv Aitnlinims. one of his officers, and the
eunuch Spamitrcs,m the year 405 B.C., and
Darius' Ins elder son raurueieu. i no same
Ycirthe consitiratei Artabauus was put te
death bv Artaxerxes I. who succeeded
Yerxps en f he throne. Cetvs. Kins of
Thrace, was assassinated in the year 300
B. C. In the year 340 B. C, Lais, the
celebrated ceurtezan, was stoned te death
iu Corinth. She was contemporaneous
with Phryne, who sat as a model for
Praxiteles's "naked Venus," which was
found at Mile, A.D. 1S20, and is esteemed
as the most perfect specimen of Greek att.
Artaxerxes III, otherwise called Octal", a
King of Persia, who muidered iiis
father's surviving children, was pois
oned by Bageas, a eunuch te
whom he entrusted the direction
of the government, in the year
130 B. C. This was eventually followed
bv a rude iusticc. almost poetic. In the
year e
!t:W. It. V.. Darius III. executed Be-
geas, who had made him ruler by murder
ing Arses, whom lie hau previously raiscu
te the throne by the murder of his father
Oehus. Indeed this eunuch Begcas had a
perfect genius for murder, aud would
doubtless have disposed of Darius in the
same manner as he did his predecessors,
had net Darius anticipated him. Autio Autie
chus II, King of Syria and Babylonia,
otherwise known as Thees, se named by
the Milesians whom he delivered from
their tyrant Timarehus, in fulfilment of a
treaty with "Ptolemy of Egypt, repudiated
his queen Lasdicc, and at the death of
Ptolemy again took her into favor. She,
however, poisoned him in the year 240 B.
C, in order te secure the throne for her
son. Antiechus V. was murdered in the
year 102 B. C. by his cousin Demctiius
Setcr, who succeeded him en the throne
Antiechus VI. was murdered by Typheu,
142 years B. C, who usurped the throue.
Cleopatra, daughter of Philip of Mace'de .
and sister of Alexander the Gieat, was
assassinated by order of Antigenus after
the death of her brother. Adherbal, King
of NumUli.i, was slain by his cousin Ju
getha, 112 years B. C. Cressus, the Ro Re
man tiiumvir, noted for his great wealth,
was treacherously killed in the year 53 B.
C., in a conference with Surcna, the Par
thian general, by whom he had been do de
featcd in battle. Ptolemy of XII Egypt
reigned jointly with Cleopatra from 51 te
48 B. C, when the queen was expelled.
Shewas subsequently made" queen with
PtnlRrnvV. brother en lhe throne as kincr.
but she rendered his reign merely meninal,
and murdered him in the year 44 B. C.
This was the same year that Cresar was
assassinated in the Reman senate hall.
Frem this dateuntil the sad scene ea
Cavalry's hill no assassination or murder
worth 'noting occurred. Caligula (Caius
Casajr) was assassinated by Cassius
Chrcrena, a conspirator, in the year 41 A.
D. Auielian, who, born or humble par
ents, entered the army aa private and rose
te the highest position in it under Valerian
subsequently becoming Emperor of Heme,
was assassinated in tin year 275 by his
own officers. Hypatia, the celebrated
female philosopher and mathematician,
was murdered by Cyril, the Chr stian patri
arch, aud his fanatical monks iu tuc year
415. Ladislaus III of Hungary, surnamed
Cuman, was assassinated in the year 1290,
In the year 1354 Charles of Navarre assas
sinated Charles of Spain, and made public
avowal of the fact at Madrid. Peter the
f!riiAl Kincr of Snain. was defeated at the
battle of Monteil in 1309, and through the
treachery of lm Uuesclm murdered, in
this case the life of the victim had fur
nished se many detestable precedents, that
the crime of his taking off can only be
considered as a natural sequence. Iu the
year 1483, rendered memorable as the date
when statutes were first printed, Edwaid
V ascended the British throne under the
protectorate of Richard of Gloucester.
Gloucester, however, avowed his inten
tion of seizing the crown, iu which under
taking he was supported by the Duke of
Buckingham. The queen aud her chil
dren were compelled te seek sanctuary iu
Westminster. The young kitig and the
Duke of Yerk were imprisoned in the
Tower of Londen, and Gloucester, the
Usurper, assumed the threne as Richard
III, June 20. Then followed the mur
ders of Lord Rivers and ethers in Pomfret
Castle, and of Edward V and his brother
in the Tower. Pizarro, the conqueror of
Peru, defeated Almagre in 1538, made him
a prisoner and executed him. Te avenge
his death a conspiracy was formed by Al Al
mageo, the younger, which resulted in the
assassination of Pizarro in 1541. As
a rule, the crfme of assassination
cannot be justified en any ground what,
ever, but in this instance it appears te
have been the only consistent end te a
career as perfidious as 1'izarre s. the
fact of his murdering the Inca Atahualpa
by the garretc after receiving a ransom
estimated by Prescott, the historian, te
have amounted te ever $15,000,000, was
alone sufficient warrant for his death by
assassination. In 1589 Henry HI of
Fraucc was murdered by Clement, a
monk, at the seige of Paris, July 22.
Henry was the most detestable of the de
tested house of Valois and the last of that
lineage te sit ou the throne of France. He
was succeeded by Henry IV, king of
Navarre, surnamed " the Great," who en
the 14th of May, 1G10, was muidered by
Ravaillac. Several persons arc said te
have died of giief en hearing of his mur
der, se popular was he with the people.
Wallenstein, count of and duke of Meck
ljnbcrg, Friedland and Sagau, was a
celebrated German general and the story
of his life forms the subject of
Schiller's greatest tragedy. The duke of
Bavaria and etheis of his enemies
in 1C34 persuaded the emperor te distrust
his loyalty. lie was accordingly deprived
of his command and secret orders were
given te Gallas and Piccolemiui te arrest
or assassiuate him. lie, after sundry un
successful attempts te secure his safety by
negotiations with tlie Swedes, retired te
the castle of Eger, where hewas assassin
ated in February, 1C34. Gustavus III, of
Sweden, in 1792, at a masked ball given at
Stockholm, was aisassinated by one of a
band of conspirators composed of Swedish
noblemen. The assassin's name was
Aukaistiem. Gustavus was noted for his
talents as a statcsmeu and was distinguish
ed as a poet and dramatist. This brings
the list down te the beginning of the nine
teenth century, siuee whieh period the
assassinations aud murders of prominent
persons have been published in various
feims iu the pi ess throughout the country.

There is quite a flutter iu society, owing
te the announcement that Gen. aud Mrs.

seen as their new heuse is in perfect elder,
and every day workmen aud artists are
bringing nearer the desired end. I under
stand net a single article has been bought
or erdeicd for the first fleer, the eighty
cases of magnificent presents presented te
the General en his foreign tour furnishing
them tlnougheut, as well as supplying the
rest of the house with objects of art of
every conceivable sort.
Ne two pieces of furniture iu the parlors
and reception room will be alike. Curious Curieus
ly caned chaiis, velvet and geld embroid
ered divans, and ebony and ivory fauteutl,
uphelstcied and gebelin taiustry and hand
wrought brocades, will take the place of
the modem set.
The Oriental hangings a.nd Persian car
pets were raade for the cx-piesiucnt as
gifts-, and 31rs. Grant will incur the ever
lasting envy of women by using the finest
and most exquisitely woven India cash
meies for the drapery of her own boudoir.
The tables and stauda are of buhl and
mosaic work ; the mirrors hang in curious
ly carved frames cut b- the jacknives of
the skillful Swedish carveis. Pictures of
every variety, aud all of merit in different
degtces, have frames in themselves works
of art, while statuary aud articles of vertu
ornament the rooms lavishly.
In Gen. Grant's private dressing room
stands a miuiatutoheuno offive steiies and
ncaily three feet in height. It is of solid
silver, curiously beaten and raised in queer
flewcis ar.dedd birds. Ou opening the
vaiieus dceis aud windows that lead out
en comical Utile balconies, can be discov
ered cases of ficttcd silver, containing bot
tles and flasks of carved ivory filled with
different aud delicious pet funics. This
was presented te the owner in China. A
pleasant reminder of India is a pair of su
petb elephant tusks ncaily six feet in
length, the polished ivory set off by elabor
ate geld mountings.
The wall en one side of the family sit

The gieuud is of creamy satin, aud the
subject is worked out in varied silk cm cm
breidery, the figures aud foliage standing
out as in ical life aud the coleis exquisite

Hew exceptional a memory Gen. Grant
has is shown in the fact that he knows at
a glance wheie each of these thousands of
gilts came from, the name of the city, the
donor aud the circumstances of the pre
sentation. He docs net exhibit the least
complacency in their exhibition, but Mrs.

The Electric Light in Pullman Car.
Londen Telegraph, Oct. 13.
Yesterday the electric light fairly con cen
queied a new domain. The Brighten
railway company, which of late years has
been a pioneer of improvements en the
iron read, ran a special train from Victeria
te Brighten and back, with a saloon car
riage lighted by stored electricity. The
event, noteworthy iu itself, may conie te
possess a historical interest, since there is
no doubt that it wa3 the first time, cither
in the Old World or the new, that accu
mulated electrical energy had becu se
employed ; while the complete success
which attended the experiment must un un
questienably'mark a new dcpartr.re in
railway management. It was only a
few months since 31. Faure scut te Sir
William Thompson his little box of lead
plates coated with red oxide and fully
charged with electricity. The great Brit
ish physicist saw at oaee its capabilities,
and new every day seems te be bringing
te light seme new application of this, the
simplest of all apparatus ever designed
by genius. The Pullman ear, en which
yesterday's experiment was made, carried
beneath it en a shelf some 32 small metal
boxes, technically cells, each of which con
tained leaden plates coated with oxide
known as red lead. Nothing less preten
tious or mere inert in outward apfoarance
could well be imagined. Yet there wa3
stored up in these sheets of lead an amount
of force which, if it could be suddenly lib
erated, would vastly exceed the pewer of
any storm el tropical iigutning.
A steam engine had been at
work erf the previous night, pro
ducing a current of electricity which, in
seme mysterious manner, had hid itself
away iu the folds of the metal and beneath
the c'eak of red oxide, but was ready at
any instant te give back in the form of
light or of force the energy that had
cieatcd it. Twelve of 3Ir. bwan's little
incandesccut lamps were fixed te the reef
of the carriage, and all that was neces
sary when the train passed through a tun
nel or when darkness came en was te turn
a switch, and instantaneously a mild,
steady and btilliant light filled the saloon..
Frem the point of view of the traveler,
the experiment was completely successful ;
a superior illumination could hardly be
desired ; and if it be true, as possibly
sanguine electricians assert, that this stor
age can be affected at a smaller C03t than
oil, the pleasant trip te Brishton yester
day afternoon may have wide reaching
cfiects.
When the season ter making presents cetnis,
make some sufferer et your acquaintance a
preeenter n bottle et Dr. Ilnll's Cough Syiup
untnet; the licnellt It Will de him and the
thanks you will receive.
