Fithenza HARPER, who died New York last Triesday, aged 72, was the youngest and the last survi vor of the four pooi boys whn more than half a centuryiago founded the now famous publishing house,of II r• per ft Brothers. The business WI doubtless be continued under, the same style,,as each one of the - 'origi nal brothers left sons--and I'LETCIIER, grandsons also—who have ?all been taken into the business. FLETGHER HARPER was 'the only' one of „the brothers who exhibited literary Oil-, ity. He was at the beginning and for a considerablenurnter of ye' is the editor of Harpers! Monihly, which was begun in 1851,, and was the 'first periodical publication of the firm. The firm's busineas is ii a more finnrishing, condition to-day than. ever'be. rove, and his share in that alone is nn inheritance worth millions. Mr'. FLETCHER HARPER was always known in',his own estab- lishment . as " the 'Colonel."

SENATOR DAWEB, of Massachusetts, at his honk in Pittsfield the other day; replying to the question; "What do you think 'of the policy of the President r said : "It is _the duty of every Republican to stand, by the President in his Southern policy and if it tails, that failure should never be imputed to want of support from those who" put him. in .pow Cr. The Republican party is in a minori ty in the House or Representatives, has only a small and imcertain'tpa jority in the. Senate, with - the certain ty, without a change of policy, of a _majority against it in that body also two years hence, controlling the ap pointments, the appropriations, the army and the, navy, and rendering him and the Vpublican party there= after utterly hopeless, and the ndero South utterly defenceless. This way is the only one open to the President. If it is closed up,•let it not be by our friends': The Republican, party is not 'fari-in its Southern_ policy at least, from the condition of the sick man who has been along time under treatment and has uniformly failed in strength and health till little is left of him. For such a man there seems to be but one of two things-- he must either change his medicine or buy his coffin. For one. T nth not quite ready' to buy the coffin." GOVERNOR ,r[ARTRANFT has issued death warrants for the' execution of eight coal region 'Mollie Maguire murderers, in addition to four issued a few weeks ago.

'ender. date of May 30, a corre spondent of the Triburie gives 'this obneise 7 description of the Permanent Exhibition : Letters received here from, differ eat `sections of the country indicate_ .that there are some very crude and extravagant notions entertained with regard to the Permanent Exhibition, particularly in comparing it with that of last year,. These correspond ents 4nnocently ask .whether, this ex liibition really equals the great Cen tennial. These notions are the re sult of the undue prominence given `to this local affair by the journals of this city and of New Yotk. Tlie t , eclat of the opening ceremonies, the presence of the President, members of the Cabinet, and other distinguish ed personages at this time alsci serv ed to give it notoriety, and it was thus started with neaily as much ad vertising as the Exhibition of last year. . The fact is, this cannot be regard ed as anything-more than a side-shoW, or relic of the Centennial, and ont of some 1,800 exhibitors GOO are from Philadelphia. It would 'be called a fine show under other circumstances, and if it were not dwarfed by the asso ciation with relics and ruins:of past glOries that surround it )on every hafal.
