This evidently means that the position England has taken In the controversy Is to he main tained. A special cahlegram to the New York Herald states that the French journals nil praise the agricultural implements ex hibited by the United States at the Paris exposition. The French journalists re gard them as unrivaled In Europe. Gen. Joiin'C Fremont has been appointed by the President, Governor of Arizona. The salary is $2,500 a year. The President was desirous of giving him a better position, but the demands from other quarters did not permit it. The State Prohibition Convention as sembled in the Hall of the Temple of Honor, at Altoona, Wednesday, the 29th ult., and nominated the following ticket: Governor, Franklin II. Lane,of Hunt ingdon county ; Lieutenant Governor, John Shallcross, of Philadelphia ; Sec retary of Internal Affairs, Calvin Par sons, of Luzerne county, Supreme Judge, Daniel Agnew, of Beaver county. The situation in Germany is evidently deemed very serious In Berlin. An ex traordinary session of the Parliament is to be held to deliberate upon means for repressing the present dangerous agita tions and to consider the advisability of adopting measures to suppress Socialism, which appears to have spread to an alarming extent. The late attempt on the Emperor's life has increased the ap prehensions of the Government. The English operatives are still out, two of the Fall Itlver mills are bankrupt and nearly all are voluntarily idle; but the mill-hands in that city are spending their time in discussing the rates of wages, and asking that the recent re duction be put back. The mills have stopped because it is cheaper than to run them, and so the operatives say that they ought to pay fifteen per cent, high er wages. This is the logic of the Na tionalist and the Labor Reformers all over the world. Wm. Cullen Bryant, well known as one of the first of American poets died at New York on Wednesday last. Mr. Bryant has written many poems and made many speeches that have been read with great pleasure by every person who can read the English language. His last public effort was a speech at the unveiling of the bust of Mazzinl, the Italian patriot, in Central Park,New York, on decoration day, which seemed to exhaust him, and on his return to the house of a friend he fell backwards with his head on a stone step, causing injuries from which he did not recover. Stanley Matthews' refusal to ap pear before the Potter Investigation Committee, Is the subject of much un favorable comment from all sources. He puts -his refusal on the ground that his conduct is to be investigated by a committee of the Senate. The New York Herald inquires : " Is he willing to have it supposed that he asked for the appointment of this committee as a means of escaping an examination by the committee of the House V IThis is a natural Inference from his conduct, which is regarded as a confession that be is in a tight place. Mr. Matthews seems to shrink from the searching cross-examination to which he would be subjected in the Potter committee." If he has nothing to conceal, his refusal to testify is a blunder ; but if he desires to screen his conduct the Senate investiga tion cannot help him. Even If the Sen ate committee acquits him it will be re garded as a whitewashing after his manifest dread of an examination by the House Committee. A Serious Strike In Quebec. Quebec, June 11. Last night the strikers visited the workshops of the North Shore railway, and although as sured that the employees were receiving more pay than was demanded by them, they proceeded, owing to the foreman refusing to sign a paper to that effect, to demolish the windows and doors, while some of them attempted to carry away a quantity of brass and other material. After doing considerable damage and driving away the employees the crowd marched off. The Btrlkers finished the day's work by surrounding Pare's match. splint factory on the river St. Charles, and, on Pare refusing to sign a document they presented to him, closed the establishment, causing the greatest consternation among the female and other employees of the place. To-day the men on strike forced the employees of most all the factories in the clfy to abstain from work. Rioters' Depredations. Quebec, June 12. The laborers on a strike have been plundering llenaud's flour store on St. Paul street, stopping traffic on the street and forcing truck men to assist them in carrying off their plunder. B battery and the police are how en gaged in dispersing the mob. Later. The riot Is on the increase. The strikers now number about 1,000. B battery has been forced to retreat, the riot act not having been read on the ground. Captain Provost, the adjutant, and some of the men, are badly cut with stones. The mob took from llenaud's store nearly 200 barrels of flour. The military are marching up and down. 2:30 P. m. The military are attempt ing to disperse the crowd, but without avail. Later. The riot act has just been read. Firing has commenced and one man is reported killed and several wounded. Several rioters and specta tors are wounded. Captains Short and Provost are badly cut with stones, and some bullets are also believed to have taken effect in their arms and legs. Two or three of the mob have received sabre cuts from the cavalry. Everything is now quiet. The rioters have dispersed and B battery is guarding the parlia ment house. Mystery In a Factory. In Riverside, a suburb of Paterson, is a small factory that has of late been the object of much curiosity. On every door is placarded, " No admittance," and sev eral ugly-looking dogs keep away in truders. Men are busily at work inside, and it is Baid that a Newark manufac turing firm offered a reward of $500 to ascertain what they are doing, the firm Buspectlng that some patent was being infringed on. Inquirers at the factory can obtain no information. In a round about way, however,the report has crept out that somebody has made a valuable discovery, and that the mysterious fac tory is being used to perfect it into patentable shape. The discovery is said to consist in a process by which celluloid can be manufactured into a material al most exactly resembling linen. This is to be made into shirts, collars, cuffs, &c. If the undertaking succeeds, it is aver red that it will make a revolution In the laundry, because the " celluloid linen" can be cleansed, like glass, with clear water. Odd Accident at Newark. The Jersey City Journal says : " A peculiar and probably fatal accident oc curred at 7 o'clock last evening, to a man named Frank Gaus, living at No. 247 Court street. He is employed at Krueger's brewery on Belmont avenue. When he returned from work last even ing his boots were wet, and he found difficulty in removing them from his feet. He called one of the gentlemen in the house to his assistance. Gaus sat on a chair while the other man attempted to pull his boots off for him. The latter giving a sudden jerk caused Gaus to slip from his seat, and, while going down, his back struck the back of the chair in such a violent manner as to injure his spinal column. He felt terrible pain, and a physician was called in. The doctor says that the injury may prove fatal. A Providential Flash of Lightning. Saturday night as freight train No. 7 was nearing Sheffield, Iowa, in the teeth of a fearful storm, and, into the jaws of darkness, the track was for an instant illumined by a vived flash of lightning. The men on the train, conductor, en gineer, fireman, brakemem, all saw enough to make them leap for dear life. In front of the train, but a few yards, they discovered a bridge washed out. In the place of the peaceful little stream of midsummer was a raging torrent. All the men escaped without an injury. The engine was soon cooled in twenty feet of water, and the whole train ditched. The Vanderbllt Contest The contest of Commodore Vander bilt's will now begins again after a vaca tion of nearly two months. Mr. Scott Lord and Judge Jere. Black have been several days preparing new matters, which are expected to add startling and sensational features, even though they do not add to the merits of the case for the contestants. ' Gunning for a Burglar. Mr. and Mrs. Flynn, of Sidney, Ohio, had been married only a few days when in the middle of the night, the husband thought he heard a burglar hiding under the bed. He arose quietly and armed himself with a shot gun. The bride was asleep, with one of her feet hanging over the edge of the bed. Flynn saw the foot, and thought It was the bur glar's face. The light was dim, and the foot may have been uncommonly large. He fired, shooting away three of Mrs. Flynn's toes. London, June 12. A despatch from Accrlngton says a meeting of overlook ers, representing every mill except one, yesterday Unanimously favored Bubmls sion to the master's terms, and decided to make every effort to terminate the strike.

Mary Kell worked hard in a Cincin nati shirt factory on low wages, and at length came to the conclusion that she could get along much better as a boy. So she put on a suit of boy's clothes, had her bair cut short, and started out to get em ployment. She had not gone far before she Baw a chance to pick a pocket, and did it. She was arrested. In the police station tha officer who began to searoh her im mediately found a frill around the neck of her shirt, and stopped operations. Then she confessed who she was. A fine of one dollar was the penalty imposed by Judge Mackey of Charleston, S. C, in the case of E. fl. White, con victed of assault and battery upon George W. Rouse. The Indictment was for as sault and battery with the intent to kill. The facts are that White, a man of means and good position, attempted to settle a private quarrel with Rouse by promiscuous pistol shooting on a crowded street cross ing. Thirteen shots were fired, and the bullets flew in various directions. The verdict of the jury and the light sentence imposed by the court would seem to indi cate that the security of human life is but lightly valued in the chief city of South Carolina. OUR WASHINGTON LETTER. Washington, D. C, June 13, 1878. The wedding at the White House to night, that of Mr. Hayes' niece, Mibs Piatt, and General Russell Hastings, is the great toplo in social circles just now. It will be the seventh wedding that bas ever occurred in the Executive Mansion. The first took place in 1811, in President Madi son's time, the bride being Miss Todd, a relative of Mrs. Madison. In 1820 Martha, daughter of President Monroe, was mar ried to Mr. Gouveneur, of New York. In 1828 President John Q. Adams' son John was married to his cousin, Miss Hellen, the ceremony being performed at the White House. During General Jackson's Ad ministration a daughter of his old friend and oompanion-in-arms during the war of 1813, Maj. Lewis, was married to a French man, Mr. Pageat, in the White House, General Jackson giving the bride away. Mr. Pageat was Minister from France to the United States a few years later. Pres ident Tyler's daughter was married in the White House, during her father's Admin istration, to Mr. Wsller of Virginia. President Tyler himself married while oc cupying the Presidential oflice, but the ceremony was performed In New York. lie had kept his engagement seoret and when he left Washington to be married, his alleged reason for absence was to inves tigate a delinquent Postmaster in Mas sachusetts. The affair took everybody by surprise. The wedding reception was held in the great East Room, which was not agHin called into requisition for bridal fes tivities for 00 years. Then Nellie Grant and Mr. Sartorls were married thore, that young lady succeeding Mrs. Tyler as bride of the White House. Ou her wedding morning (Nellie Grant's) Mrs. Tyler, with tender remeniberances of her own youth, sent the 10 years-old bride a most lovely floral greeting. Mrs. Tyler has never lost her keen interest in public and political affairs. Not ono session of the Electoral Commission did she lose ; and her face is frequently seen in the Diplomatic Gallery whenever Cougress is in session. When Edison, the great inventor, was hore, two or three mouths ago, exhibiting his phonograph, it was deemed almost too wondorful for credence. Indeed, many persons, among them some of our most astute statesmen, were very pronounced In their assertions of belief only in the hum buggery of the machine and its remarkable workings. One and all were convinced that the phonograph did talk, however, before Mr. Edison left the city ; after which it would appear that no invention could be too niarvolous for belief. But even more wonderful things yet are forthcoming, aud the same famous man is now at work per fecting a trumpet by means of which the deaf can hear. It is already so that two men with ordinarily acute hearing can hear each other whisper at a distance of two miles. This trumpet is only of the size of a common ear trumpet, but bas extensive internal complexities. A successful flying machine is next in order. "Sweets to the sweet and flowers to the fair." Now when flowers are blossoming in such profusion, tbey are in no more common ubo than when they are less easily obtainable. Washington society belles have this yetr only needed flowers for trimmings, even of their most elaborate toilets. Nothing is so stylish here as orna mentations of natural flowers, and nothing could be lovelier than the necklaces and bracelets of dainty blossoms so much worn the past winter. Pendants and ear-rings of the same have also been worn ; and one bride indulged in the charming caprioe of carrying, at her wedding, a fan composed wholly of orange blossoms, edged with the finoly scallopped rose goraniums leaves, while over each green-capped spoke ap peared a love-letter, the whole semi-cirulet of initials spelling the words " Beloved Mine." From time immemorial flowers have been love tokens. The ancient Hindoo tipped his arrows with orange blossoms and modern brides adorn themselves with the same. Olive. The Tidy Housewife. The careful tidy housewife, when she Ib giving her house its spring cleaning,should bear in mind that the dear inmates of her house are more precious than houses, and that their systems need cleansing by purify ing the blood, regulating the stomach and bowels to prevent and cure the diseases arising from spring malaria and she should know that there is nothing that will do it so perfectly and surely as Hop Bitters, the purest and best of all medioine.
