The New York Sim's cut of Presi
dent Hayes with the word "fraud"
stamped across his forehead has cost
that paper a loss of 5,000 subscribers.
The Sun will learn after awhile that
all such attempts receive "their just
recompense of reward."
A Washington special to the New
York World states that 80 per cent,
of gicenbacks destroyed during tills
month for national bank notes issued
will reduce the legal tender circulation
on the 1st of .Time to $3(30,000,000 leav
ing but $00,000,000 to be reduced before
the limit fixed by the resumptionn
act is reached. The greenbacks re
tired under the sales of coin which
commenced on May 31st will be added
to the amount of this reduction when
they are cancelled.
Fletcher Harper, who died in New
York city on Tuesday, was the last of
the four brothers whose great publish
ing house is known wherever English
books are read. The New York
Ilettrld says that lie was the ublest
member of the firm, possessing nat
ural powers which would have made
him a man of great mark in any
calling. It is no secret that he was
the real editor, the controlling mind,
of the Harper periodicals, and that he
framed the ixilicy and suggested the
characteristic features of those jour
mils.
Great preparations are being made
in England to receive ex-President
Grant with fitting and appropriate
honors. It is also intimated that the
government at Washington lias in
formed the llritish ministry that it is
expected that the same honors will be
shown to hint as were bestowed on
Napoleon and Louis Phillippe. Be
that as it may, however, there is no
doubt that the English as a people will
vio with each other in extending
courtesies to the distinguished
stranger, and that the government
will leave nothing undone to show its
appreciation of him as a military hero,
The fame of General Grant is world
wide, and wherever he may go lie
will be recognized as a Representative
American, who served his country in
the field and the executive office with
distinguished honor, and he will be
surprised to find that he is almost as
well known abrord as at home. Wil

Au Insane Freak.
a max runs a freight train into
THE RIVER AND DROWNS HIMSELF,
A man, supposed to be insane, com
mitted a strange freak Tuesday after
noon on Washington avenue, which
resulted in his death and the running
of two freight cars into the Delaware
at Pine-street wharf. Locomotive No
69 of the Philadelphia, Wilmington
& Baltimore Railroad, about 3 o'clock
was standing on Washington avenue,
between Front street and Delaware
avenue, having annexed to it two
freight cars, and during the tempor
ary absence of the engineer and fire
man au unknown man jumped into
the cab of the engine, and opening the
throttle-valve, let her go down the
avenue at full speed The switches
being turned in the direction ofl'irne
street wharf, down the train went un
tii it struck the bumpers at the wharf
with such terrible force that the en
gine was thrown from the track and
the two cars precipitated into the
river. The man was thrown out into
the water and drowned. The en
gineer and fireman returned to the
place whore they left the train, but,
not finding it they made inquiries,
and were informed that it bad been
seen running in the direction of Pine
street wharf. They hurried down to
the place indicated and discovered
that the engine and cars had been
wrecked. The engineer at once
stopped the throttle of the engine, and
then Informed the railroad authorities
ef what had happened. Arrange
ments were at once made to remove
the wreck. Shortly after the accident
the police grappled for the drowned
man, and after about fifteen minutes'
labor succeeded in finding the body.
It was that of a man beteen 35 and 40
years of age. in shirtsleeves and dark
pants. The proprietor of a public
house on Washington avenue stated
that shortly before the taain was
btarted the drowned man entered his
place, took a drink, and remarked
thatitw3 the last drink for him in

The Great Frauds In Lnzcrne County.
Scranton, Pa., May 27. The audi
tors appointed by the county court a
year ago to make an audit of the Lu
zerne county finances for the past
seven years have finished their labors
and the result will be published to.
morrow. It reveals a record of official
dishonesty unparalleled In the pre
vious history of the county and shows
how for seven years past the commis
sioners, treasurers, sheriff's, clerks and
others have stolen boldly large sums
from the treasury. The thefts took all
possible shapes, such as bogus con
tracts, changing records, altering
figures, retaining taxes. Positive
proof wns furnished by the creditors of
$')0,000 stolen from time to time, but
the full amount of the seven years will
doubtless reach $100,000.
Governor Potts, of Montana, against
whom charges of nialfeasauce in of
fice had been trumped up, has been
vindicated by the President, who
made a careful examination of the
case, and then dismissed it because he
found nothing in it. It Is to his credit
to state that the financial affairs of the
territory are In better condition than
those of the other territories, and that
he has proved himself a good gov
ernor. He will now return to his post
with the Presidential blessing, con
scious of having discharged his duty
with fidelity, and certain of not being
molested.
On Saturday at Pittsburgh John
Council, with another man, stepped
on an elevator to remove a stone which
had been raised to a height of 120 feet.
As the men got oil the platform it be
gan to descend. One of them saved
himself by jumping on the first land
ing. Council endeavored to jump on
thesccond landing, but the downward
course of the elevator was so rapid
that lie lost his balance and was
hurled down the opening to the hot
toin, turning over and over in his de
scent. He had his scull crushed but
was living in the afternoon.

tive value. It accomplishes several impor
tant indications, chief among which may
bo mentioned:
1. It completely cleauees and purifies
the blood, quickly overcoming constipation,
causing the liver to throw oil' its bile, and
cleansing the eniiro alimentary canal, rill
ing it of worms and other vermin inhabit
ing nn unhealthy stomach and bowels
This acliou renders it peculiarly valuable
in the weukuesses, thick and impure blood,
billiousncss and lussiiudcs incident lo the
change from winter to spring. It causes
ihote feeling dull, heavy headachy, op
pressed and blue to become clearheaded au I
cheerful within two days time, luthus re

nil blood diseases from a pimple on the
fiue to a grave scrofula.

tive properties tor ihe relief of all irrita
tions and intlnmniation within, and restor
ing nnd building up the system. It thus

System, Heart, Lungs, Kidueys mi all
other tissues.
3d. It is nn active aud permanent Nerve
Tonic, thereby adapting it. to all grades of
'nervousness" by building up the nervous
fyeiein. Nerve medicines will not act, un
less associated with cleansing remedies.
Hence the beauty of this compound.
40). Dy its healing and nutritive quali
ties it becomes the necessary and best
