Ox Saturday evening a meeting of citizens of Philadelphia was held in the Academy of Music, to express sympathy for the Jews that have been treated so barliarously in Russia, and to protest agsinst such acts of barbar ism as have been committed against the Hebrews in the country mention ed. Several hundred of Russian Jews are now in Philadelphia. The decision of the State Supreme Court gives the members of the late Legislature $500 each, additional pay.

Politiciass that profess to under stand the cut and dry politics of the State say that Beaver will be the Re publican candidate for Governor, and that Wolvertou will be the Demo cratic candidate for the same office. The slates of the Independents, or tide-issue men are not so clearly de fined. Philadelphia held a town meeting in the Academy ef Music, and roundly denounced Russians for abasing the Jews Pfailadel pbians can bold as many town meetings a they please. What would Philadelphiana think of people of St. Petersburg or Mos cow holding a town meeting if such a meeting could be beld there and denounc ing Americans for abusing Chinamen that lire in America. It is, perhaps, not right to criticise Pbiiadt-lptiians for not taking the Chinese into consideration in their meeting of condolence. The meeting was called to sympathize with the Jews in their misfortune in falling under Ibe barbarous sir-pleasure of the Russians. Some one who claims to be posted in the decrees issues by the Czar of Russia says : R jsia's Czar has estab lished a temperance regime. He has decreed that there shall be but one drink-shop in any village ; this to be managed bv a man boru and resident in the village, who shall be appuinted by the couneiluien and paid by salary. He is to get nothing lieyond his sal ary, is to sell food an i tea as well as liquors, and is liable to fine, dismis sal and imprisonment, if he allows any one to get drunk on his prem ises. If the people of the village be come notorious for drunkenness, the sale of liquor is to be stopped there entirely. That New Yorkers believe that they have found gold is evidenced by the fact that 43 claims to gold mine discoveries have been filed with the Secretary of State. A maw in a cemetery on "Ward's Island, New York State, committed suicide by shooting himself while he sat on his wife's grave on' last Tues day, February 28. Not many wid 'owers do that Most of them are naughty enough immediately upon the death of a wife to have another one "looked out" about the time the funeral is over: Ctcloxes are manifesting them selves early in the season. A dis patch from Valley Mills, Texas, says that at 9 o'clock on the evening of February 27, a cyclone struck that place, "almost completely destroying the town, only one business house being left standing. Brinkman's ho tel, a two-story building, was carried some distance and hurled into a con fused heap.

Last Thursday a grocery etore clerk named MacLean shot at the Queen of England just as she had taken her seat in her carriage to le driven from the railroad station to Windsor Castle. The shot did not frighten the Queen. Sue was driven to her destination, and once there she speedily dispatched a messenger to learn if any one had been hurt Meanwhile the would-be murderer was with diffiulcy saved from being lynched.

Long live the Queen. The floods in the rivers of the Mis sissippi Valley last week were de structive to life and property. The bottom lands were nearly all covered with water. People were livinff in the second story of their houses, and cattle and other Live stock on the farms located on the flats were drowned. A dispatch, summing up the situation, says: "Many negroes are starving ; others are feeding on the putrid carcasses of drowned cat tle and such game as can be procured. Whole families are subsisting on ha'.f a peck of meal per week. People in this section are offering milch cows for twenty five cents per head, as the poor beasts are dying from " water starvation." A Pessstlvaxia exchange paper says : Our corn crop being a failure hist year, many of our farmers are said to be getting corn and corn meal from the westesn grangers " at a dis count of at least 23 per ceut" since shipments are direct and without in tervention. It is proposed now by the western grangers to enter into an exchange with the south to ebtain sugar, molasses, rice, oranges, etc., for flour, pork, hay and apples, and it is thought that great savings can be made. Whether the farmers are competent to deal in 6uch a variety of products, whether they can get low rates from railroads, and whether tliey Can trace up losses and irregu larities remains yet to be 6eeu. The Abrlh American of last Wed nesday 6ays : The Free Quaker So ciety held a business meeting at Fifth and Arch streets yesterday. The members of the Society hold to the same view now as their predecessors in that faith did during the struggle for the independence of the Ameri can colonies, that war is sinful The followers of George Fox, however, maintained opposite vwws, and this led to the secession of the peaceably inclined from the '"fighting Quakers." The former erected the building at Fifth and Arch streets, now used as the Apprentices' Library, but after the surrender of Lord Cornwallis the two sects were reunited. " What is a hero's reward ?" asks the poet He should ask . General Grant In the course of time it is to be called "the national beg gar," "the champion gift taker," 'the free lunch fiend," "the champion pauper," aud other pet names by edi tors and public sj)eakers, whose wash hills are probably two months in arrears.

Babsks Popclak Histost or the Usited States was undertaken at the close of the Bret hundred yeara of American Indepen dence. The author proposed to give to the whole people of the foiled States and the world a thoroughly impartial history of America, from the mound builders to tbe present time. As such it was necessary to steer tree from whatever in recent history would arouse sectional animosity or party bitterness. He determined to meet all q iestions of burning moment in the judi cial rather than controversial spirit, aud nhile giving to every event its due impor tance, be would seek to avoid controversy by the gentfe word " that lurnetb awav wrath." The work is now finished down to President Arthur's administration. In it the truth of American history la impartially given in true historic form, without passion and without fear or favor. It ia a work that all sections of tbe eoantry can red and et jy. Although the author i a North ern man and roklier, bis work is pnpuUr aud widely need as a text-book East, Went, North and Soith.

As he drew near, a man sprang from the stable and struck him with a knife, the point of which penetrated his clothing and grazed his breast He immediately grappled with his assailant when another man made his appearance and knocked Mr. Pe terman down, and both escaped. Upon investigation two horses were found saddled and bridled, and a few moments later would no doubt have been taken away. No clue whatever has been found to the identity of the thieves.

A writer of experience and repu tation has stated that the fence tux on the farmers in the State of New York is three and a half times greater per acre than the State, county and township taxes on the land. Ten years ago it cost nearly as much to get a bushel of grain from Buffalo to New York as it no'v does to carry it from Chicago to Liverpool.

The farmers of Hunterdon and Somerset counties, New Jersey, are said to use goats to protect their sheep from dogs. Two goats can drive away a dozen dogs, and two are about all each farmer put in with his sheep. As soon aa a dog enters the field at night the goats attack him, and their butting propensities are too much for the canine, who soon finds hhnself rolling over and over. A few repetitions of this treat ment causes the dog to quit the field, limping and veiling. Formerly when a dog entered a sheep field at night the sheep would run wildly around and cry piteously.. Since the goats have been used to guard them they form in line behind the goats and seem to enjoy the fun. The idea of utilizing goats in this way came from the West where they are put in sheep pens to drive away wolves. GENERAL ITEMS, If tulphnr is dusted around the sheds and hog pen it will effectually drive off lice. Dust it on the bogs also, and leave a little in tbe troughs for them to eat.

Al. Millner, lire man en a freight engine of the Pittsburg, Fort Wayne and Chicago Railroad, perlormed a brave act on Wed nesday by which he saved the file of a young mas named Frank Fisher, at the risk ol bis owa. As Millner'a train was passing through Freedom, Beaver county, Fifher endeavored to cross tbe road in (rout of tbe engine, when he was struck and thrown serosa the beam ol the cow-catcher, with his ieet almost under the wheels. Millner ran out along Ibe footboard and held the boy until tbe train was stopped, although he was in imminent danger of being drawn under tbe wheels owing to the peculiar po sition of the body. Fisher was insensible when removed from tbe engine, but recov ered consciousness in a short tune and was lound to have suntaiued no very serious in juries. A TRUE FISH STORY. From a Letter iu the Albany (Ga-yNews. Headinc across the bay to St Simon's lit;ht the man in charge of the wheel hailed Mr. Tift and direct ed his attention to something ahead of us. The object turned out to be a shark's fin, so large as to be a mat ter of wonder to the sailors aboard. The boat happened to be provided with a shark-line a nianula- com about a half inch thick, with a large hook tied to a trace-chain. A small piece of beef was quickly put on the hook, a float put ou the hue and then cast out &nd then the line made fast to the capstan. As we neared tbe fish the ha disappeared and all eager ly watched the tloat Suddenly the line tightened, the float disappeared and the headway of the boat was checked and the man at the capstan veiled out : 44 He s hooked ! I have been fishing, but I never saw the like of that The fellow rose to the surface of the wave and looked at us. He had about seventy-five yards of the blue out by ihis time, and actually in a second he made a rush and jumped clear over the bow of the steamer. The ladies then got under shelter and all bands helped to hold that line. The fellow, when he failed to eat ns up, made for the ocean and fairly made the waters foam. After about a mile s run he began to tire and the boat was heed ed for the beach on Jekel Island. Gradually we pulled in the line until the boat touched the beach, and then one of the hands waded ashore, tak ing the end of tbe line with him, which he made fast to a stump and came back for help. Four of us got on 6hore and com menced to pull Mr. Shark ashore. It took all we could do, and two rifle balls to boot to land him. When I tell you that he measured seventeen feet ten and a half inches from tip to tip you will know what a job we hud. We determined to prove that we caught this shark, so we gave two negroes $1 to cut him open and get his head off so that we could get liis jaw over home. His teeth are won derful, being about three and a quar ter inches long and so strong that he actually flattened out the big iron hook. The negroes made quite a prize. Iu his stomach they found eleven silver Mexican dollars and one Spanish doubloon, gold, and a whole lot of brass buttons. LOV K BY POST. From fho Columbus Enquirer. About a year ago a party of gen tlemen living near Green Hill, Stew art county, Ga., took a notion that they would move out West and grow up with the country. They went to Texas, and had not been there but a 6hort time before they formed the acquaintance of a "wire-walker, whose name was Bond. The ac quaintance ripened into friendship, and Bond was so pleased with his new-found friends that he wanted them to give him a Georgia sweet heart This was an easy thing for them to do, and they recommended a young lady in the Green Hill neigh borhood. Now comes the romantic part of the story. One evening after miss Annie Nicholson bad finished milking the cows and had rinsed out the strainer rag and hung ft up by the door-facing to dry, 6he got a let ter. This was not an unusual occur rence, but the letter was a most un expected one. It was from her Texas friends, informing her that they had given her away and that her lover by proxy wanted to know if he could write to her. She couldn t re fuse such a modest request and an swered him yes. Bond wrote to her immediately on receiving the per mission. He liked her chirography aud the smack of her letter. He thought he would like her better and asked for an exchange of pictures. Again she could not refuse. He was iu a heaven of bliss at the sight of his fair Venus and at once made a proposal of marriage. She had made a precedent and it would not do to violate it, and again she could not re fuse. February 16 was set for the time of culminating their happiness by the holy bonds of wedlock Those who knew of the love affair said it was all a joke, but Bond meant business. Last Friday evening one week a ago a stranger called at the house where Miss Nicholson resided. It was her Adonis. He saw the goddess of his heart's idolatry ; he took in the situ ation and was pleased aye,- fascina ted, charmed. He left her with- a promise to call at the appointed time, when the marriage nuptials woald be celebrated. Last Thursday evening he was in on time and the happy marriage was ronsTJmrnated. A FIGHT WITH A SPIRITED WHALE. From tbe Beaufort Telephone. On Wednesday the whaling crew on Shackelford's banks, N. C, sight ed a whale in the offing, and manning their boats' immediately they started for the fray. About noon they over hauled his whaleship, and' Mr. James Guthrie, with the dexterity of an old whaler, struck him with a a harpoon, which was followed on the same rise by another. The whale immediately showed fight and we are told by the crew that they never attacked one that showed more spirit Messrs. Windsor and Lewis prepared the swivel, and on the first opportunity sent in an explosive bomb, followed by a second, both striking the whale, bnt for some cause failing to explode. The third shot however, was more fortunate, entering a vital part and exploding just at the right hue, which caused almost immediate ueatn. Importers say that the spring and summer styles will be very encour aging to wearers of "cart-wheeis. a Aix ladies know their faces are more attractive when free from pim ples.
