Although historian? may cavil and doubt as to the actual day ou which the signatures were aillxed to the declaration of Independence, yet the American people have by common consent fettled upon the 4th of July as the anniversary of the severing of the ties between England and the colonies and the naming of them as "free and independent States." The old Puritan rigor, that made every act of life a devotion and every as piration a sacrament, that character ized the celebration in the days when we were near to the 6badow of Bunk er Hill and the snows of Valley Forge, has in a measure passed away, and if we no longer look on the smoke of powder as incense, or epread-eagle oratory as eulogy, it is because the Indejendence of the Republic has become not only known of, but an example to all nations. Though celebrations are less noisy, patriotism is just as deep and as read y to respond to the call at the slightest approach of dangeraswhen it sent back the grand response, "we are coming, Father Abraham, a hun dred thousand strong." Devotion to the true principles ot that Dec laration has become part and parcel of the very life of our people, and we are more inclined to remember the fruits than the planting of our independence. The step involved fearful peril to those who took it, but out of the grand possibilities has been garnered such a glorious har vest of success that we are apt to forget their struggles and rest con tent in the eujovment of their vic tory. Xver was f.iith in nrinciole more severelv tested, nor has it ever ; received a more glorious reward. Let the date be what it may, it is well that by general consent we should dedicate one day to rejoicing over the beneficent results that have followed that Declaration, and the great advancement it has made pos sible in individual liberty. "Thoi gh lost to sight, to memory dear, " is the refrain of the song now chanted by thousands of disappoint ed office seekers. Diking the month of June the public debt was reduced $H.15G,8G1, 0G3. The total decrease during the year was f 05,500,000. The locust come once in seven teen years, the Democrats once in twenty-four. But they are both noisy for a short spell. A censcs of Chicago has just bceu completed, which shows its popula tion to be 700,000. with no indica tions that it has ceased growing. Mowing machines are "death on snakes." Western farmers an no ticing the fact they are rapidly dis appearing where mowers are now used. It will do no good to sit down and groan over these Democratic hard times: put your shoulder to the wheel and work hard to make them better. Aix the Collectors of Internal Revenue in this State have been re moved except those in the Pittsburg and Erie districts, and their days are numbered. The Baltimore and Ohio railroad has won its fight for right of way into the city of Philadelphia. The estimate of its necessary expendi tures at that point is $7,000,006. The reports with reference to General Grant's condition are very contradictory. The fear, however, is steadily gaining ground that the end of the life of the great soldier is near at hand. President Cleveland, is said to be working hard. But almost any body would be willing to work hard if furnished a fine house to live in free, and paid f 136.9S cash for every day of the year. Mrs. Dcpley, who attempted to kill the blatherskite, 0Donovan Rosea, has been acquitted by a Xew York jury, on the ground of insan ity, and the Court has committed her to an insane asylum. While professing to deprecate factional differences in the Repub lican party, no paper does so much to foter and encourage them as the Philadelphia Pre. Aspiring to lead the party, it is its worst enemy. All this cant and hypocricy about the appointments makes us very tired. Everybody understands it, and everybody would feel much more respect for the President if be would speak .out manfully, and say "Civil service reform may go to the logs; I want the offices for my par ty friends." " The continued bad health of Mal colm Hay. First Assistant Postmas ter General, has compelled him to resign, and it is said that A. E. Stev enson, of Bloomington, Illinois, will be appointed in his stead. The of ficial career of Mr. Hay was brief but honorable to himself and the new Administration. A ftEFOBU is making headway at Washington "to allow every fellow to pay for his own drinks at the bar" and "to allow ladies to pay their own car fare and for tickets to the theater," etc. It is called u Dutch treating'' by the Washington reform en. It will doubtless Bare many a close-fisted fellow from going home tight Tee White House was beseiged last week by a horde of place hunt ers, who were under the impression that a "clean sweep"would be made at the end of the fiscal year. The President, however, concluded to "go slow," and there is blaspheming and gnashing of teeth among the disappointed aspirants. The newspapers are generally copying the remark that "Mrs. Gar field, Mrs. Hayes and Miss Cleveland were all school teachers." The same mar be said of several Presidents, anv number oi Senators, ana ot 4 more than half the Supreme Judges, There is something acquired in the life of the school teacher which fits men and women for the highest and best duties of citizenship. There can be no better training given to any roune man or woman than in the school-room as a teacher. After a considerable amount of backing and filling, Governor Hoad ly of Ohio has, "at the request of the President," consented to accept a re-nomination. This means, of course, the use of all the Federal patronage in the State to assist in his election. With the money of the coal oil ring, and the judicious distribution of offices by Mr. Cleve land, the Democracy hope to obtain a victory which can be interpreted to mean a popular verdict in favor of the Administration. From 1877 to 18S4 there has been collected in the Internal Revenue departments throughout the coun try and turned over to the Treasury the sum of $1,014,531,501.81. The cost of collecting this sum was $37, 314.872.59, or a percentage of only .368. The vouchers for every dollar of this expenditure are on file at the Treasury department, and the work of collection was accomplish ed without the loss of a dollar to the government This is certainly a record of which the Republicans may well be proud, and if in four years the Democrats can make a showing proportionately as good t.:ey will also have reason for sell congratulation. Just So. No man can be independent in politics unless be be a fool, a rascal, or a selfish idler. Nashville Ameri can. It is a somewhat remarkable cir cumstance that you never hear of a poor man having the hay fever. Washington Critic. A Texas newspaper thinks " the faith cure is well enough," but when a fellow is snake bit he will general ly take a little whiskey to brace up his faith.

Albany, July 1. A Journal dis patch from Saratoga says that Gen eral Grant's physicians again this morning privately express the fear that be cannot live beyond Friday or Saturday. From private and authoritative sources the Albany Journal to-day says in a double leaded leader : "There is no disguising the truth that the days ef General Grant's suf ferings are almost ended. Tte close of his heroic struggle for life is near at hand. When he was taken from ! Ivew lork it was in the belief that he could survive but a short time if he remained in the city. The des perate chances of giving him a few more weeks of life on the mountain were taken. To-day the great and grand hero is on the brink of the grave." fes r aa i Erie, June 30. Erie was theacene of another tragedy to-day. As the gates of the jail opened to let out Brown, the assassin of the old soldier Dunn, for a hearing, an ambulance drove up with the inanimate form of James Cleary, a dying burglar, ehot through the lungs by offictr Dun denhoefer at sunrise. The officer seized Frank Norton, the watch-dog of the gang which bad burglarized eight places during the night and was handcuffing him when Cleary came to the rescue. Making a shield of his captive the officer returned Cleary 'a fire, hitting him in the groin, ueary men toon cover in a hallway and blazed away, nearly killing his companion, whom Dud enhoefcr still held in front of him. When the policeman's six-shooter cave out Cleary limped from the hallway and advanced, taking de liberate aim. Dudenhoefer thrust his hand into his captive's pocket and drew forth the burglar's Der ringer, which he quickly aimed and fired, the ball passing through his assailant's luncs. The jail physician told the burglar that death was inevitable and sug gested a clergyman, but the dying man cursed the priesthood and re fused. Being asked by the Sheriff the names of some of the gang he swore be would die true to himself and not "squeal" on his pals. Later he was induced to receive the Rev. Father McCabe.

Two Ultto Girls Murdered. Mabshall, 111., June 30, Evi dences of what may prove to be a peculiarly horrible double tragedy were discovered yesterday in Wa bash township this county. Several weeks ago a telegram to a St Louis naner from Effingham gave an ac count of a supposed kidnapping of two little school girls by gypsies. A few days afterward a band of gyp sies camped two and one half miles east of here for three nights. The first evening Officer Millard Hedrick passed the camp and as he went by a child ran toward him, crying aud beckoning, but was pursued aud overtaken bv an old bat:. Hedrick thought nothing of the matter, but since then some children named Davidson, crossing a high hill near the location of the gypsy camp, saw a hole in the ground near which bogs were rooting and from which came a sickening stench. Sheriff Fair and a deputy went to investigate and dug down three feet into a crave four feet long bv two aud one half wide. They turned up a mass of worms and bits of cloth. While the men were digging at the hole a trvpsv man suddenly came over the hill and stopped, looking startled. After asking a few ques tions he turned rapidly and disap peared. Many other circumstancs, slight in themselves, tend to con firm the theory that the two chil dren met their death at the gypsy camp, that the poor innocents were buried, and being covered very light lv. the hoes, of which there were thirty or forty in the field, were at tracted by the stench and devoured the remains. Rleisas Rtrlkers la Ckirae). Chicago. July 1. The strike of the street car drivers nearly precipi tated a riot to-day. Three cars, the foremost containing eight policemen and a reporter, and the others filled with police and deputy sbenns, went down town on Madison Aven ue from Western avenue, and were unmolested, but at Jefferson street on the return trip, they were met by a crowd of 4000 people led by the strikers. The mob hurled beer bar rels, bricks stcnes aud other missiles at the cars, smashing the windows and finally wrecking the cars. several arrests were maae. but the police were powerless to handle the mob. At Union Street the cars were stopped by obstructions placed on the trad, and a shot was fired by a policeman at a supposed ring-leader but did not take effect Missiles were even thrown from the build ings at the cars. The mob grew larger, and several policemen were injured by stones. At Ann street the cars were so totally wrecked that they were pulled from the track and taken under the escort of a heavy guard of police to the company's barn on Western Avenue. The riot ous demonstrations then ceased. The D. &. O.'s Xew York ed Oat. Office Darn. New York, July 4. The careless use of fire-works in the basement of the building No. G3 Broadway tbis evening led to a conflagration which damaged the building owned by P. Harmony it Sons to the extent of $10,000.
