smoke, chew smoke, and carry it loose in
their pockets. It is now seventy two years
since Pittsburgh Las been warmed or reach

Men kiss each other's wives in Pittsburgh,
unable to tell which is their own only by

SU001ISG AX EDITOR.
New York, Ftb. 28. Patrick J. Mea
han. editor of the Irish American, was shot
this evening, about 11 o'clock, by James
Kenoan, on Broadway. Both are members
tif the O'Neill btanch of the Fenian Brother
hood, and hud been attending a Fenian
meeting at the headquarters, corner of
Fourth street and Broadway.
Mcahan was, it is said, head and front
of the opposition to General O'Neill, and
Juremost in obtaining the vote of dismissal
of Keenan. The meeting broke up about
11 o'clock, with feelings of bitter hostility
between the adherents of the Senate and
fboseof General O'Neill. Meahan, with
friends, Edward J. Carey, McKinley, and
others, had cone about a quarter of a block
when, at the eorn5r of Broadway, Kecnan ,
as alleged, stepped behind Meahan and shot
hi in iu the neck.
He was carried into a drug store and sub
sequently taken to the home of Carey. The
wound is said to be very dangerous. Keenan
was arrested. A five-barrelled revolver was
lound on his person, with three barrels dis
charged. He fired only once at Meuhan.
The prisoner denies the oharge altogether,
and while at the station-house he was very
oool.
Two Steamers Missing. The Bremen
Steamer Smidt, which left Bremen on the
20th of January with 293 passengers for
New York, has not yet arrived or been
heard from, not wiihstanding she has been
out now forty-one days. Much appaehen
eion is 'felt for her safety.
There is also grave fears entertained con
cerning the safety of the City of Boston
which loft New York for Liverpool, Jan,
25th and has consequently beeu out thirty
six days, and not yet heard from. Some
hopes are entertained that both these stea
mers have only beon disabled and that the
passengers and crews are yet safe and will
soon be heard from.
Warning to Young ladies. A girl
in Chester, Vt, died a few days ago from
the effects ef tight lacing. To such a fear
ful extent had this been indulged in, that
the ribs were found lapped over one anoth.
er and the breast bone was pressed over
one lung so that she had entirely lost its
nso. For several months previous to her
death, this poof victim had been obliged to
alaep with corsets on aud tightened to the
last notch, lor loosening gave such pain in
the internal expansion that she couid Jiot
b 'ar it.
KENTUCKY.
Keutucky wants immigrants. She is
moving in the matter, and, in imitation of
some of her Southern sisters, contemplates
establishing a Bureau of Immigration. A
few years ago it was thft frequent and fa
vorite assertion of Southern politicians and
economists that cotton wus a complicated
crop which only negroes under Southern
overseers could possibly raise. N-jw one of
their orators declares that the ctop, though
"not a complicated one,' can not be raised
by negroes in state of freedom ; ' nor by
vicious) and avaricious Chinese Coolies : on
ly the pure, unadulterated Saxon is com
petent to the task. Discarding the labor
it has on luud, Kentucky now proposes to
import her farm hands direct from England.
We hope she may get them in abundance.
Kentucky ts a State which deserves and
needs the regeneration of new, fresh blood
we heartily trust she will establish and
maiutain her Bureau, and we are glad to
aid in circulating her bid for the favors of
European cmcgrants. But Kentucky should
remember that her natural advantages are
clearly overbalanced, not only by those of
other States to the north and south of her,
but also by her cwn social and political
disadvantages, and hasten to remove the
latter. She cannot afford to discard and
destroy the labor she has at hand while
waiting for thai which is yet to be impor
ted. This she can do, however, and we
fear will, by a churlish and perhaps bloody
acquiescence in the invitable and early
change in political relations of former mas
ter and man which must follow the adopt
tion of tho Fifteenth Amendment. It is
not difficult to destroy a system of labor,
but Kentucky may find that it is exceed
ingly embarrassing and costly to establish
another iu its place. N. 1". Tribune.'
West Virginia hastens to conform to
the requirements of the Fifteenth Amend"
ment. Her House of Delegates on Friday
voted to amend the State Constitution by
striking out "while" from the suffrage
clause. With equal wisdom and grace, tie
body also nddi-d a clause restoring the bal
lot to disfranchised Rebels. Two States
have now virtually declared for General
Amnesty. We hope noon to see all the
other Southern and Western States couple
the two propositions of Impartial Suffrage
and General Amnesty in one enactment.
We have also the gratifying intelligence
that the Missouri Lcgislu&ure proposes to
restore to her ciTizens the right to hold
oflJce and serve as jurors.
Tho Senate and House, on Wednesday,
Feb. 23d, passed upon over 300 private
bills, including a number of divorces. The
House alone severed the nuptial tics of five
couples, so far as its action in the matter
could go. The bill providing for a new
county out of proportions of Warren Ye.
nnngo, and Crawford, received its death
blow in the House on amotion to indefinite
ly postpone, which was carried by a vote of
03 to 25, aud the House refusing to recon
sider. The Poor. The poorest man to be met
with is the man who is too poor to take a
newspaper. We pity such a man, rspe-
cia'.ly'ifho is a man of property. Who
ever heard of a man too poor to ' smoke or
shew tobacco, if addicted to cither habit ?
And yet men who spend from fifteen to
twenty-five cents a day for "the weed" are
too poof to take a newspaper, iu the intel
lectual enjoyment of which their families
participate. Really such men arc poor.
They are objects of pity.

setts, and will be tried for attempting to
commit suicide. It is held that the offence
is will-recognized under the common law,
and that a man has no moro legal right td
try to kill himself than to attempt to take
tbe life of another person. This is a capi
tal point. Let us sec these would-be self.
murders severely punished, and, our word
forjt, there will be fewer suicides. Ex.
Three American Generals have entered
the service oflsmael Pasha Gens. Mott,
Loring, and Sibley. They all three have
nominally equal commands as Generals of
Division ; one taking the artillery, another
infantry, and a third tho cavalry. It is
probable that Ratheb Pasha will retain the
nominal chief command of the Egyptian
army.
Chicago, Feb. 21. A special dispatch
to the Tribune, from St. Paul, says the bill
which recently passed the Minnesota House
of Representatives, providing for submit
iog to the people of the State an amend
ment to the constitution on the question of
woman's suffrage, on which question they
should be allowed to vote, was to day con
curred in by a vote of 12 to 19. Tho bill
provides that women's votes shall be taken
in seperate boxes. It is understood that
Governor Austin will sign the bilL
""Are these iresh eggs)"' "Yes madam."
"How do you know ? You speak to positive

"Why, I laid them in that box, myself,

MODEST REQUESTS IN OLD
UMJSSi
The Holyoke (Mass ) Tramcript pub
lisles the following copy of quaint letter
from Rev. John Pbndmeton, of Spring. 1
field, to Amos Ai.lin, of West Sprigfield,
one of his parishioners, which bears the
date of July 6, 1787 :
Honored Sir; My kind lova to thee
and thy wifo and dear family, hoping these
lines will find you well Dear Sir, I know
you love to do good. Tray Sir, I intend
to cut my grass next Wednesday, if fair ; if
not, the next day, and as we are to make
our wants known, if you will be so kind
as to let my friends know of the same, and
they would come and ent the grass down
for me. I hope I should be thankful and
obliged to them for tho same. Four or
five will do it, with what I expect this side
of the river, and pray be so kind the next
day after they come and cut my grass, for
you and Miss Allen, Dcakon Homeston
and his wifo, Deakou Rogers and wife, Mr
Lizeh and his wife, to come over and see
my wife and I am in hopes you and my
friends will come and see me oftcner than
you have done so, and then your horses may
have some to cat, dear Sir farewell. Yours
iu love.
John Pendleton.
A Fulls county (Texas) paper says the
family of General Houston is very poor. It
remarks: "His youngest child is, wo sup
pose, about ten years of age. He has two
others, about 'l or 14, perhaps 12 or 1G
years old respectively. lie had a noble
wife, who, in the providence of Ood, was
grcauy instrumental in leaaing mo mind ot
the -Teat statesman to the sublime faith in
,. ,1.,.. , , ,
Cbri&tiau.mity in which he died, and by
which ho was led to happiness and heaven.
His Dumcrous friends will not let his fain
ily suffer, but it should be a state affair and
then the humblest friend and admirer of
the hero of San Jaciuto, who pays taxes,
will fell that he or she has some share in
the laber ofbve and grMiludc.
Rev.. Dr. Chalmers once said: "The
little that I have seen in the world, and know
of the history of mankind, teaches me to
look upon their errors in sorrow not in an
ger. When 1 take the history ot one pocr
heart that has siuncd and suffered, and pres
ent to myself the struggles and temptations
it has passed through ; the brief pulsation
of joy ; the tears of regret ; the feebleness
of purpose; the eorn of tho world that has
little charity ; the desolation of the soul's
sanctuary and threatening voices within ;
health goue happiuess gne 1 wouid fain
leave the erring sou! of my fellow nan will
