The Congress of the great powers
now In session at Berlin is likely to
break up In a row, and then war.
Chicago will have a monster parade
of the red flag communists, without
arms, but if molested they will shoul
der their muskets.
Washington's monument, that
eye-sore of a generation, is at last to
be completed, Congress having appro
priated $200,000 for that purpose.
Christian K. Ross (father of
Charley Ross) has been appointed
Master Warden of the port of Phila
delphia, by Governor Hartranft.
Insanity Is proved by statistics to
be on the increase, owing, no doubt,
to the pressure on the mind of people
geuererally in this fast age of steam.
A general uprising of the Indians
and a costly Indian war Beems emi
nent. Extermination really seems to
be the only medicine to give the red
devils.
Will General Grant be the Repub
lican candidate for President In 1880 ?
His chances seem to be good as that of
any other man, and stranger things
have happened.
In the Hungarian exhibit at the
Paris Exposition Is a monster tun,
eighteen feet iu diameter, and eigh
teen feet long, and capable of holding
21,000 gallons of wine.
The Crown Prince of Germany, re
turns thanks to President Hayes, and
the American people, for the sympathy
manifested on account of the recent
attempted assassination of Emperor
illiam.
A Woman in Muncie, Ind., threw
red pepper In the face of the editor of
the iWws, and then administered a
brutal horse-whipping, all for an al
leged slanderous article. The woman
was arretted.
A card written by James Gordcn
Bennett removing the seal of secrecy
from the seconds in the Bennett-May
unpleasantness has been published.
The only question that suggests itself
to our mind in this connection is, who
cares ?
Congress at last has adjourned, after
an eight-months session, in which
nothinghasbeen done, either good, bad
or indifferent, and the prospects of an
extra session to provide for the pay
ment of tho Canadian fish award, is
more than possible.
June 17th has come and gone, and
no car wheels are stopped, as was
threatened by the communists. Law
and order will be preserved at any
cost, and the sooner all evil-disposed
persons understand that, the better for
them and the country.
Times arc hard, and the commonest
necessities of life are denied thousands
of honest, hard-working men and
women. And yet to see the style of i
dress, and the extravagance indulged
in by the favored few, one would think
tli is a laud of milk and honey.
That the present season will bean
abundant one is foreshadowed by the
encouraging reports from the crops of
the West. In Michigan the only
thing to be feared from the growing
wheat is that it may attain too rapid a
growth to enable the straw to obtain
sufficient strength to prevent lodging.
That great political reformer und
postmaster, Petroleum V. Nasby, is
now in Washington assisting in con-
ducting the Potter Investigation. He
says they will surely succeed in un
seating the "yooserper," andthatthey
are bound that T ilden shall have the
Presidency, as he bought and paid
for it.
The true story of the assassinatlou
of President Lincoln has been told by
the manager of the theatre where the
deed was accomplished. From this it
appears that Booth did not' contem
plate the crime, but did It upon sud
den impulse. The assassination of
Julius Ciesar by Brutua furnished the
model.
The appointment of Gen. John C
Fremont to the governorship of Ari
vnnn. territory is one that will be
sanctioned by the whole American
people. This man who once seemed
destined to be President of the United
States, now, In his extremity, accepts
the covernorship of a territory. Yet,
such is greatness.
Death removed from the world's
busy throng one of the brightest and
best men when he called hence Wil
liam Cullen Bryant, and, although he
is erone. his name will live forever
among tho immortals. On WedneS'
Av. June 12, 1878, he breathed his
last. He was born at Cummington,
Hampshire county, Massachusetts,
November 3, 179 In his nineteenth
vearhe wrote ' Thanatopsls," and at
4a aim nf ehrhtv ''The Flood of
Years." These two poems alone being
sufficient to secure for their author
fame more enduring than marble.

The United States Treasurer on
Saturday shipped $10,000 in silver dol
lars to depository banks iu various
parts of the country. On the 8th
instant the Treasurer informed the
banks that the expenses of shipment
would be paid by the government, and
the result has been an increased de
mand for silver In exchange for cur
rency. Thus far, under the new rul-
ing to this effect, $30,000 have been
shipped. Treasurer Gillflllan has au
thorized about one hundred batiks to
receive deposits of currency on account
of silver, and it is expected that at
least a half million silver dollars will
be got into actual circulation in this
way.
While the workmen on the
Brooklyn bridge were lowering into
place one of the large cables, the tack
ling at the anchorage on the New
York side parted, and Thomas Blake
and Henry Supple were killed, and
James M'Grath and Peter Arberg
were dangerously wounded. When
the tackle parted the huge iron shoe
weighting nearly 900 pounds, shot
over the houses, demolishing chlm
neysnd the telegraph wires, and
lodging in a pile of granite near the
bridge tower. The cable itself split
apart, the two ends falling into the
East river. The tackling which broke
and caused the disaster had been used
previously in lowering the great ca
bles into place.
James A. Abbott, agent of the
Adams express company at Golconda
111., was awakened by four men who
said they wanted him to go to his
store for a sick person. On entering
his store they demanded an f 800 ex
press package which was supposed to
have been la Abbott's possession. The
package had not arrived, however,
and the robbers took about seventy
dollars from Abbott, which he had on
his person. Then the three of them
forced Abbott into skiff, and, after
proceeding down the river a few miles,
turew him overooara wun tne re
mark, "Dead men tell no tales
Abbott fortunately reached shore, re
turned and gave an alarm, which re
sulted in the capture of a stranger,
supposed to be the one who remained
on shore. The other three are still at
large. , , .'.
Abont Swindler.
It if astonishing to see how much
ingenuity Is displayed by that class: of
men who live by their wits. We have
recently heard of a new swindle which
illustrates the danger of dealing with
strangers. In this case there was a
genuine sale of land, the party buy
ing 100 acres of poor land, for which
he paid $300 in cash. He then made
a sham sale of It to a confederate for
110,000. Five thousand of this is sup
posed to be paid in cash, and notes are
given for the remaining five thousand, j
secured by mortgage on the land, and
the mortgage is regularly recorded.
These notes are then turned over to a
third party, who goes to some city
bank and asks for a loan of perhaps
$2,000, and offers the notes and mort
gages as collateral security. The of
ficers of the bank telegraph to the re
corder of the, county and get a reply
that such a mortgage is recorded, and
they let him have his money. Of
Course the notes and mortgages are
never called for, and when the bank
undertakes to foreclose, the trick is
discovered.
Perhaps the most amusing piece of
ascality that we have heard of, was
that of a lightning-rod pedler, who
drove up to a new house and found the
owner skinning a wood-chuck. He
tried to get the job of putting rods on
the house, but the farmer said he could
not afford it. The agent tells him that
woodchuck skins have been found
aluable for certain purposes, and
finally offers to put a rod on his house
and take his pay in woodchuck skins
at fifty cents each, to be delivered at the
railroad station at a certain date. As
the farmer's fears have been excited
by the picture drawn by the agent, of
the danger of living in a bouse
without rods, and knows that he can
easily get the skins, a bargain is soon
struck, and a note is drawn up to read
payable in woodchuck skins some
months hence. The farmer caught
his woodchucks and cured the skins,
but when he presented them as pay
merit, found to his surprise that there
was no " woodchuck " in the note
nothing hut cash, which he had to
pay, and now nothing would afford
him greater pleasure than to make
those woodchuck skins Into whip
lashes, and wear them out on the
lightning-rod agent's back. Columbia
Courant.
Another Case from Du Bois
Two men named James McGrah and
Benj. Straley got into a dispute at Du
Bois on Monday, which resulted in the
serious injury, and perhaps death, of
the former. The facts as related by
the constable of Brady township, who
arrived here early on Tuesday morn,
ing with Straley In irons, are about as
follows : The dispute had come to an
end and McGrah was carelessly lean
ing against a support of some kind
with his back to Straley, when the
latter suddenly raised a piece of edging
and struck McGrah a fearful blow
above the right eye, cutting a long
gash, crushing in the skull and forcing
the eye from the socket. After the
injured man had fallen to the ground
Straley struck him another blow with
the club, and then kicked him before
the bystanders could Interfere. He
almost immediately began to throw up
blood, and the doctors give Itas their
opinion that he cannot recover. Straley
was arrested and committed to jail to
await the result of McGrah's injuries,
and will be required to answer before
the next session of our criminal court,
Clearfield Republican.
In New Haven the other day a
superintendent of a line of steamers
wanted some laborers on the dock,
and going to a lot of idle men on the
street, whom he had been informed
were seeking work, he offered them
one dollar and a half per day. To a
man, however, they demanded twen
ty-five cents an hour, and jeered the
superintendent for his proposal. One
would suppose that times are not hard
in New Haven, or that people find it
more comfortable to live without doing
anything, but a local paper explains
that among those who refused this
proposal for a dollar and a half per
day are a number who are frequently
petitioning the city authorities for re
lief. Labor reform is evidently not so
much needed in New Haven as a re
form of those who won't labor. And
tnese are tne Kind or men who are
most dangerous, who, having the
least right to consideration, are con
stantly agitating for recognition. A
man has the right to refuse to work if
he can get along without it, but such
a character Is generally a good kind to
watch. Philadelphia Times.
Tar-water for Insects. For the
last five years I have not lostacucum
ber or melon vine or cabbage plant,
Get a barrel with a few gallons of tar
in it ; pour water on the tar ; alway
have it ready when needed, and when
the bugs appear give them a liberal
drink of the tar-water from a garden
sprinkler, or otherwise, and if the
rain washes it off, and they return,
repeat the dose. It will also destroy
the Colorado potato beetle, and frighten
the old potatoe bug worse than a
thrashing with a brush- Five years
ago this summer, both kinds appeared
on my ' late potatoes, and I watered
with tar-water. The next day all
Coloradoes that had not been well
protected from the sprinkling were
dead and the others, though their
name wan legion, were all goue, and I
have never seen one of them on the
farm since. : I am aware that many
will look upon this with indifference,
because it is so cheap and simple a
remedy. Such should always suffer
both by their own and neighbors' bugs,
as they frequently do'. Chicago 2H
