After tlie death of the Inte Gen eral Upton a letter was found resign ing His position as commander of the Fourth artillery. The theory is ad vanced that the resignation was made with a view to getting relief from work and also to allow more time for the revision of his. luetics. It U said tiiat the rush of Ameri can people to Washington in the ca pacity of office-seekers is. unprece dented In the history of the country. It is getting to be a lingering death to hold any high office controlling patron age. As the apple tree borers kill the apple tree so do borers after office dry up and finally kill the dlspeusor of patronage. Flora T. Wagstaff has recently been admitted to the Kansas bar. This is a good tiling for Flora, but heaven pity o jury when interviewed by a woman lawyer, especially if she possesses bulf the gift of gab sup posed to be Inherited by her sisters generally. Our honorable servants at Harris burg, the General Assembly, are considerably exercised because Attor ney General Palmer has given it as his decision that they cannot draw more than $1,000 salary no mutter how long they remuin iu sessiou. An attempt Is being made to pass a law giving the Honorable Senators and Members pay at the rate of $10 a day for litty days additional. No doubt the time w.ould then be short enough to trans Met the business absolutely necessary to be done. Great is the Pennsylva nia legislature. They have expelled a newspaper correspondent, and now if they get the extra $500 and adjourn, the exclamation well done will rise spontaneously from the lips of their admiring constituency. In France men- who applaud the assassination of the Czar are lined anil imprisoned. In this country idiots of that class are allowed full vent and none seem to care. William H. Vunderbilt tho riolx-st man in New York has presented that city with an obelisk at a cost of $200, 000. Aud yet hundreds of people are starving almost under the shadow of the giant monolith. Aud the streets of the great city are so filthy that even the obelkk has to hold its nose. Statistics seem to prove that the ecntre of population is now located within n few miles of the city limits of Cincinnati. And now Cincinnati proposes to anne x a few miles of terri tory so that she can claim to be the centre of population. Little Senator Mahonc, of Virgin ia, only weighs about one hundred pounds. Yet his vote is just as heavy as that of David Davis who tips the beam at 300. The excellent financial manage ment of the inauguration festivities, lias resulted in paying back every dollar subscribed and leaving a bal ance of $1,899.04 remaining in the treasurer's hands. Tim total of sub scriptions was, according to the re port, $13,48T.7', and the receipts from the ball and other sources was? 25,578, 25. Of this sum of S39.00C, there was expended on tho ball, etc.; $10,0'S2.17; on street decorations, $8,042.82; on Illuminations, $3,881 .no; and for post age, traveling expenses, etc., 2,221.30, making a total of $23,078 61. The affair was conducted by business men on business principles and as a conse quence no waste wss had and every dollar accounted for by a proper voucher. President Garfield does not deem it necessary to convene an extra ses sion of Congress. This- decision will put the question at rest. Polygamy will soon be a thing of the past, only to be referred, to along with the crime of slavery as a dark epof on the fair escutcheon of our country's history. President Garfield is quoted ns saying to a Western Sen ator: "Senator, as a personal fuvor to me I want you to take up and cham pion this Mormon question iu the Senate. We must stampout polygamy. I want this to be one of the distin guished features of my administra tion." This is only In accordance with the sentiments expressed in his Inaugural address. The people will uphold the President's hands in this holy crusade against un unholy evil. Oscar Thomas Gilbert Moiterde Lafayette, Senator of France- and grandson of General Lafayette, is dead. He was to have been one of the French Commissioners at the York town celebration. "Old Abe" the famous war eagle of the 8th Wisconsin Volunteer In fantry, Is dead. The bird was carried at the head of th& regiment through out the war, never receiving a scratch. Bincelhewarlt baa had a room In the basement of the Wisconsin Capi tol, aud received the best of care. It was at the Centennial exhibition at PhiUdclphb- It is now said that there is little doubt that the late General Upton took his life while In a fit of somnambulism. His sister used to rise in her sleep, and at one time came near to throwing herself out of the window. The General used to sleep with loaded pistols under his pillow, and though often remonstrated with, in view of the fact that somnambulism was a family trait, to discontinue the habit, he laughingly said there was no danger, and dung to his old army practice. A Minnesota family lost six chil dren last week by diphtheria. On Monday the youngest child died; Tuesday another died, and on Wed nesday a third, Thursday two more were taken, and on Friday the oldest child a lady of thirty breuthed her last. The fret at Harrisburg over the salary question still continues. Sena tor Norris' bill fixing the salory of members of the Legislature at $1,500 was reported favorably In the Senate on Friday last, which hud the effect of brightening up the grave faces of the Senators. This proposition makes it possible for members to draw $-"00 for one day's pay, as under the con stitution they are entitled (of 1,000 and the bill makes it $1,500. The commit tee which prepared the bill hud before it a proposition that the members re main in session 150 days for the nmount named, but if was not favor ably considered. The Governor's assurances have no doubt led to the preparation of this relief measure, but it is feared the Attorney General may decide that the bill cannot be made to apply constitutionally to the present Legislature. At a land league meeting at Cough, County Kilkenny, Ireland, April 3d, a telegram was read from the Brttlugliuderiu branch league about the affray there the day before, stating that the police had fired on the people without provocation and that two men were killed, two were dying and three were wounded. General Grant and party consist ing of Mrs. Grant, U. S. Grout, Jr., and wife, Kenor Romers, ex-Mexican Minister, Mr. Davidson, General Grant's secretary, Mrs Allen, Miss Sharp and ex-Senator J. B. Chaffee, of Colorado, sailed for Vera Cruz Mon day morning on the steamor Whit ney. Judge Elwell, of Bloomsburg, rendered a decision in the William sport bond ease last Saturday. The rule for the attachment against the Treasurer and Councils of the City to show pause why an attachment for contempt should not issue against them for failing to-obey the order of the court, was made absolute. None of the respondents wiil be arrested who shall within ten days file at Bloomsburg n bond in the penal sum of $1,000 for their appearance on the 6th of May to uuswer to the Court. Andrew D. White, Envoy Extra ordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary at Berlin, Germany, has resigned. The American Almanac, edited by Ainsworth II. Spolford, Congres sional Librarian, gives the official vote for President as follows : "For Garfleld,4,442,950; for Hancock, 4,442, 035; for Weaver, 300,80"; Garfield's plurality, 913." One hundred and fifty ladies of Greeley, Colorado, invaded a Primary Convention, and insisted on participat ing in the proceedings. The question "Shall the women vote?" was carried in the affirmative by the ladies them selves. Their candidates, however, were ut the last moment defeated, mid they therefore have bolted and put up an independent ticket. Congressman Townshend of Illi nois, like Senator Gorluun of Mary laud, used to be a page in the House of Representatives. The Kansas amendment to the constitution prohibiting the manufac ture and sale of intoxicating drink, goes into effect on Mav 1st. Many friends of the measure are fearful lest the very stringency of the law may de feat its power for good. A les rigorous enactment as a starter no doubt would have been a better arrangement. In Philadelphia the nuisance of distributing "dodgers" on the public highways is said to be almost beyond endurance. Promenaders on princi pal streets have tbeso advertisements thrust into their hands or face, only to cast them to the sidewalk to help- the accumulation of dirt and litter. The Philadelphlims should advertise iu their local papers and then would the nuisance cease. Take Ridgway for example. Notice how our merchants advertise and keep up their local papers. Russia is at present under a reign of terror of the worst description. Soldier and peasants, editors and merchants are banded together to. protect themselves from un known and unseen assailants of the public peace; and yet they have no assurance but tliut the very men they are guarding against are among themselves. Nihilism raises its head aud strikes a death dealing blow, and no one knows from whence it came nor from whence comes the next blow. A little less tyranny on the part of the Government, and a great deal more education of the masses may in time solve- the great politlcul problem witli which Russia has to deal, and bring peace to the in habitants of that distracted couutry. Cotikling Is kicking against the nomination of Judge Robinson for Collector of New York. "His Superfluous Highness," Is the title that Ex-Vice President Wheeler suggests for Vice President of the United States. The Greenback party of Pennsyl vania has Issued a call for a State Convention to be held at Pottsvllle In June. The National debt was decreased $0,192,819 during the month of March. Reduction since last June $08,407,701. An Athens (Greece) newspaper gives the following as President Gar field's cabinet: "Secretary of State, Rlanne; Treasury, Nin; Navy, Keint; Interior, Verkovod; Postmaster Gen eral, Reamcs; Attorney General, Hac vragli; War Secretary, Lincoln." The handsomest women in Amer ica, it is said, lives In Pittsburg, and is to get the $10,030 prize. Pittsburg no doubt is full of handsome women but no one would ever mistrust it from the amount of coal diut on their faces. There has been only two cabinet officers younger than Robert Lincoln, Alexander Hamilton, who was only 33 when appointed by Washington Secretary of the Treasury, and Henry Knox, the first Secretary of War under the Constitution, who was 87. Hon. Alvin Bronson was born May 19, 1783. He died at Oswego, N. Y., on Saturday. He served iu the Stafe Senate in 1822 and 1829. Iu 1812 he hud charge of Government stores at Oswego, and to prevent their cap ture by the British, threw them into the river, for which he was confined in prison. Lord Beaconsfield is about at the point of death. His death will be re gretted throughout thecizilized world. His' success over the greatest diffi culty will for centuries stimulate young men of all countries.

A despatch to United States Mar shal Kerns of Pliiln. announces that. James (,'nrric, the murderer of Porter the actor, ha been killed ut Los Ve gas, New Mexico. Carrie's life has been that of a desperado since the close of the war. in which lie served with credit. During his employment on a railroad in Kansas he run an excur sion train lrom Leavenworth down to Lawrence, and he stepped into a sa loon in Lawrence. Here lie was sur rounded by n gang of enemies, and a desperate affray ensued. Carrie fought with the ferocity of a tiger and vanquished the whole party. Then cutting loo.-e a horse that was hitched at the curb he mounted the steed and galloped to the outskirts of the town where his engine awaited him. Here he concealed himself iu the bushes to evadu the mob of rowdies who were on his track, and remained until his fireman returnd to town and fathered up the excursionists. As the train came back Currie mounted his iron horse again and snapped his lingers iu t he faces of his pui'suel's. Some time afterwards he had a quur rel at Junction Ciiy witli a man con cerning n woman, which resulted in his shooting and killing his antagon ist. Subsequent to this ho Killed an other man in an affray. This ended his career in Kansas," and givim; up rnilioadiiig, lie joined the regular army as u scout. He served on ninny expeditions with General (Ulster. Finally he drifted Into T"xus. where Sam Buss and his band of train rob hers were having full swing To a great degree the capture and destruc tion of these men were due to the shrewdness and exertions of the man who afterwards murdered Porter in so brutal and cowardly a manner, and would have shot a woman except foi her piteous appeals for mercy. The story of the murder of Bciijaiiian F Porter and the wounding of Maurice Barryniore at Marshall, Texas, on the 20th of March, lsW, has been told so often that a detailed repetition at this time is not needed. Alter various delays Currie was brought to trial on the 10th of June, 18f0, and the evi dence incriminating bint was as di rect as possible. Among other wit nesses, Mr. Barryniore testified, as well us Miss Ellen Cummins, the lady who was the unhappy cause of the affray, mid who narrowly escaped death herself at the desperado's huiids. Miss Cummins, on returning to New York from Texas after the trial stated thut the issue of the atrocious farce was never for un instant in doubt. She was treated Willi the tc.mtiest of courtesy aud browbeaten on the witness-stand us if she, and not the buily murderer, were the real criminal. The counsel for the prose cution and defense fraternized amica bly anil smoked, as did everybody else during the proceedings, and outside the court-room she was made to feel very unmistakably that she hud not ut all increased her popularity by uid ing the base endeavor to rid the free uiHlvnlightenvdSlate of one of its most prominent and high-spirited citizens. The verdict in this case lias become as notorious as the crime; on toe l'.'lh of June Currie was lound "not guilty," on the ground of in finity. In the following summer Currie was described by a correspond ent of the New Orleans J'icayttne ns a "changed man, utterly unlike the Currie of former days, and determined to lead not only a good but useful life." In this he failed, the despatch to Marshal Kerns saying: "Currie, it appears, was ou a drunken spree and threatened to kill several jienple. Among tho persons threatened was the bartender of a saloon, who iu self defense, shot the Texan murderer, the ball entering his forehead aud coming out at the back of his heud. A party of railroad bonds, friends of the dead man, attempted to lynch t'je bartender but the SheritT succeeded in getting him to jail. A Coroner s inquest wus held and the jury ut once returned a verdict of shooting iu self-defense. The bartender was held, as futhcr trouble Is expected.' EW LIVERY STABLE IN RIDGWAY.
