NO CONSEQUENCE.
. The Iowa Democrats have served
notice on the Liberal that where as,
last year, thej allowed the Liberals
to lead and took ' the back places
themselves, this year the Liberals
mast step into the, ranks and let
the Democrats lead, i It's of no con
sequence, however, which of these
two fragments gets the first place,
except-... relatively,, among them
selves. . . .' .
ENTHUSIASTIC.
No resolution in the Ohio Repub
lican platform was received by the
Coqvention which addopted it with
so much .uprbrious enthusiasm as
the one .that denounces the back
pay grab. Its reading was hailed
by a shoutof tumultuous applause,
which proves that, however Con
gressmen may look at it, the peo.
. pie are unanimous in disapproving
that measure. ' ' ;"
FIRE IN BOSTON
": Boston has again been scouraged
by fire, many of the finest buildings
in the business part of the city
which escaped th lt. conflagra
tion havinsr been consumed on
Friday. . As is usual on such occa
tions, the estimates of losses are
very conflicting, ranging from one
to many millions. , It will be sever
al days liefore anything like an ac
curate estimate of the damage can be
given. ..'vt .. ... ,
A GENERAL DEMAND.
There is a general demand from
the Eastern press in. places which
have been the scene of railroad hor
rors, that all trains shall be suppli
ed with axes,' crowbars, and other
tools, with wbitili to break open a
car, should an accident occur.
Stoves in cars are also condemned.
They claim that' cars should be
heated by steam from the locomotive.--It-is
beyond question that
the most fearful accidents and loss
of life come from burning the car
from the overturned stoves.
OVERWORKED.
Vice-President Wilson is in Bos
ton. He is suffering from overwork
which has effected biseyes. Dur
ing the last campaign Mr. Wilson
made over 130 speeches, and travel
led nearly 20,000 miles. He has at
tended to his Congressional labors
during the past winter, and at the
same time was preparing the second
volume of historical workforpubli
cation this autumn. His physician
now orders a cessation of all work,
including correspondence and that
Mr. Wilson shall seek rest and re
laxation during the summer.
THE OUTCOME OF LIBERALISM.
M msoun is one or toe states in
' which the"Liberals," triumphed last
fall. They have had a fair chance,
there, to. demonstrate their capacity
to carry on a government, and the
result is not complimentary to them
The Treasury'of the State is bank
rupt, and the prospect of fresh sup
plies is apoorand'discouragingone.
The obligations of the State are mat
uring, and there are no funds to
jneet them, and no means at hand
for obtaining any. The Governor
has disappointed every one in choos
ing his officere.and disrule and mis
rule appear to prevail throughout.
We are not surprised, therefore, to
hear that the Germans who were in
veigled into the liberal movement
are discontented.dissatisfiedand un
easy. Let them come bock to the
. Republican party, where they prop
erly, belong. The 'Liberal' move
ment was a humbug and imposture
from the start It held out vast
promises that could not be fulfilled,
its followers mistook pretentious
iiess lor statemansnip. iney are
finding out their error,now, and as
fast as that is discovered, "Liberal
ism'' will vanish away.
TEMPERANCE LEGISLATION.
The New York Legislature has
been having trouble in fixing up the
temperance legislation of the session
so as- to suit both itself and the
Governor of the State. The Legis
lature passed a local option' bill,
which was returned by Governor
Dix with his veto. The question
then was, what next? The 'local
option bill could not be passed over
the veto, and so the temperance
members of the Legislature had. to
change their base. They accord
ingly adopted the principal of the
Ohio law, and on Thursday a bill of
this description passed the Senate,
having previously passed the House
It is substantially the same as the
Adair law of this State,, and makes
liquor sellers responsible for dama
ges resulting from the sale of intox
icating drinks. It is not likely that
Governor Dix will veto this bill.
He is friendly to temerance legisla
tion, but found constitutional and
other legal objections to the 'local
option' l.ill.
A Young girl- named . Elizabeth
Arnold was strangled to death on
Monday at Pekin,, Illinois She was
c'liniliing out-of a window when the
sash fell, pinioning her by the neck
in such a manner that death ensu

WILL NOT UNITE.
The en of perfect good feeling
has not quite come. The Presby
terian Church North, and the North
era members, tired of being repeat
edly snubbed in their overtures to
wards a restoration of unity, have
given np the attempt and declare
that when negotiations axe again
opened it must be when the South
ern Presbvterians deir-e-ik - This
places the Southern Presbyterians in
a curious position. They seceded
in the first place and have persis
tently refused to return. Their
pride will probably prevent them
from seeking any further alliance
with their Northern brethcrn until
the present feneration has passed
away. This is not a cheering record
for a Christain denomination, and
contrasts unfavorably with the
Southern Methodists and Episcopa
lians under the same condition.
THE STOKES CASE.
- The lawyers have succeded in
muddling the Stokes' case until the
public has almost lost sight of its
real statue. The case was brought
before the Court of Appeals on Mon
day last, on the motion for a new
trial. The ground on which it was
asked on account of errors commit
ted in the late trial at which he was
found guilty. After hearing argu
mente on both sides the Court took
the case under advisement and will
give its decision next week. Should
the motion be granted, an' order
for a new trial will be issued and the
the prisoner will have another trial
in the Court of Oyer and Terminer.
Should the motion be refused, he
will be taken immediately before the
the Supreme Court and re-sentenced
Should the decision on the pending
motion be adverse, no further ap
peal can be taken, and Stokes' only
chance will be in executive clemen
cy, 61 which' not the slightest hope
is entertained.

tions: The one cent has the profile

TUNNELLING THE ROCKY MOUNTAINS.
TAIN!
The Denver (Col.) News says;
A scheme is now on foot for run
ning a tunnel through the Rocky
Mountains. This may seem a pro
digous enterprise at first to the cas
ual readcr,but the parties who have
the matter in hand are sanguine of
the most " complete ' success. The
idea is to tunnel the mountains
from point about one mile below
Black Hawk to the Middle Parke,
running in a north-weasterly di
rection. The tunnel to be run will,
it is presumed, cut many rich veins
of gold and silver, and thus a great
mining interest be developed. Mon
ey for the prosecution of the work is
furnished by English capitalists,
who are sanguine of the ultimate
success of the enterprise. Some
idea of the magnitude of the task
may be gathered from the fact that
the tunnel, if completed, will be 12
miles in length. It is intended to
make it large enough to be used for
railway purposes, and so, if a road
is ever to be constructed to the
Middle Park, it wiil find its most
convienient route through the tun
nel. It will be called the . Sierra
Mad re Tunnel Company, and the
incorporation papers for its organi
zation have already been filed.
CHOLERA.
The New Orleans papers admit
they have had several sporadic cases
of Asiatic cholera in that city, with
seven deaths. - The percentage of
deaths was only about six showing
that the cases yielded rcdily to med
ical treatment and were not danger
ous at all. This is a good' showing
but this is only the opening of the
summer season, and if the cholera
appears thus early, it may rapid! v
grow worse. At least.it will lie well
to be prepared for it, should this
change occur.
Mrs. Sherman, the poisoner, says
she fully deserves her punishment;
that she does not wish to be releas
ed from confinement, for fear that if
she were to be set at liberty she
should immediately pr-x'eed to jxii
soii somebody.
He met Miss Kitty at a ball. Af
ter talking about the balloon ascen
sion, the weather and other things,
he asked rather abruptly:. "Where
is your mother?"' "Oh," said the
sweet damsel, 'I have left her at
home. I generally do when I come
to a ball. What is home without a
mother?'
BALLOONING.
Prof. John Wise and WJI.Don aid-
son, two experienced and well known
aeronauts, propose to take the At
lantic balloon voyage of which so
much has been said and so - little
done. The Boston Board of Alder
men have responded to a petition
from them, and made an appropria
tion of $3,000 to aid them in fitting
out their aerial, ship, in whichtliey
will start from the Common in that
city on the Fourth of July. The
gentlemen intend taking two other
persons with them, and through the
co operation of the Franklin Insti
tute in Philadelphia, expect to se
cure the services of two scientific
men. Professor Wise bases his
reason for undertaking this perilous
voyage on the following theories:
At a certain hight above the earth
there is a continous air current, or
tide, setting from west to east caus
ed mainly by the centrifugal force
venerated bv the revolution of the
earth on its axis, and that this cur
rent moves at the rate of from 60
to one hundred miles' per hour.
Thus he expeets to reach England
in two days, at the most, from the
time of starting. Thus far balloon
ing has been of no practical use to
the world, and we cannot see that
it will be of much value even if it
is demonstrated that there are con
stant easterly currents at an eleva
tion which can be reached and
maintained. Still, if Boston is will
ing to pay for the experiment,' and
the aeronauts, are anxious to risk
tneir lives in the enterprise, we do
not see that any one else, should ob
ject.
POSTAL CARD DECISION.
Persons should not mail two pos
tal cards joined together, one con
taininz an inquiry, and the other
blank upon which to make a reply.
Both wiil be cancelled at the office
oi mailing, and the blank one ren
dered useless. The following rul
ing of the Postoffiee Department
has just been made respecting pos
tal cards. These cards are not to
be advertised, are not to be return
ed to the writers, nor 'sent to the
dead letter office. If. undelivered
sixty days after their receipt they
should be burned. No postal card
which contains a scurrilous or ob -
scene communication, or which is
folded and the edges fastened to
gether, or to which a slip of paper
is attached to conceal the commu
nication, or to which any printed
matter, photograph or picture is
affixed, will be allowed transmis
sion throuh the mails, nor can two
cards be pasted together and trans
mitted without prepayment of pos
tage (in addition to the stamps im
printed thereon) at full letter rates.
All such cards will be destroyed at
the mailing office. It will therefore
be well for the public to understand
that while any thing not scurrilous or
abscene can be properly transmit:
ted if written or printed on the card
itself, no addition to it, or alteration
of it, or increase in' its weight will
be permitted.
OFFICIAL HONESTY IN OHIO.
Governor Noyes was able to say on
accepting bis recommation that Tor
twelve years the Republican party
has had the control of the . politics
of Ohio, and during all that time no
tint of corruption or dishonor has
attached to any State officer. When
once,soniething wrong was suspect
cd, an investigation, with a sharp
Democratic lawyer at its head.
.searched in vain for any evidence of
fraud. This statement of Governor
Noyes has been widely noticed, and
a great many pleasant things are be
ing said by the newspapers of other
States concerning the pre-eminent
purity of the public men of Ohio.
We believe that this praise is well
deserved. The governors of Ohio,
since I860, Dennison, Tod, B rough
Cox,Hayes and Noycs,all have been
men whose integrity has been with
out a flaw. Both the United States
Senators from Ohio, one a Republi
can and the other a Democrat, kept
clear of the Credit Mobilier stain,and
both refused their back pay. ' Chase
who has just died full of years and
honors, lived for years with the
purse of the nation in his hands and
died honest and poor. It is evident
therefore, that so far as State pol
itics are concerned, the Republican
party is one which the people can
trust. While Albany, . Harrisburg
Trenton, and other State Capitals
have been for years sinks of corrup
tion, Columbus has remained com
paratively free from reproach. The
Ohio legislature has not been all
that it should have been, but venali
ty and purcashed corruption are. not
among its sins. On the whole, con
sidering the anti-cruelty law, th
anti-gambling code and the lottery
law, the people of Ohio have a good
deal to thank the last Legislature for
dilatory as it sometimes seemed.
Cleveland Leader.
THE MORMON QUESTION.
:peaKer lilaine has oeen giving
Brigham Young a few refreshing
facts concerning bigamy and Con
gressional legislation. The argu
incnts so long used in Utah, that
Territory to the privileges of a State
because of her population, and- that
polygamy is no worse than the soci
al evil, were very promptly dispos
ed of. The one, the Speaker claim
ed, is a violation of law, while poly
gamy has sanction of law; and Con
gress, he stated, will be apt to deal
anything hut tenderly with Utah, if
she does not 'behave herself. ;
OHIO FIRST.
Ohio is the first State in which
cither olitical party has assembled
iu convention since the salary grab
was consummated. How the Re
publican party of this Slate looks at
this piece of plundering, the eighth
resolutions tolls. It Is "condemned
without reserve," and the repeal of
the act is called for.
OUR RELATIONS WITH MEXICO.
It does not appear that President
Grant and his Cabinet are very much
surprised or alarmed at the aspect of
affairs on the Mexican border. The
raid of General McKenzie was not an
act of superserviceable zeal on the
part of that officer, but a deliberate
and-well understood act of policy on
the ' part or our' government As
long ago as. June .l7J, .Mr. Fish
wrote to Mr. JJeilson that our Min
ister at Mexico, telling him to "say
informally to the 5fexican govern
ment that in view of the . totally" in
adequate enforcement of law along
the frontier and the constant depre
dations of the Kickapoos and other
tribes living on Mexican territory ,it
might become our duty, upon fur
ther provocation, to pursue those
marauders even beyond the bound
ary of Mexico without the consent
of that government. The minister
replied that although no formal per
mission could begiven for the entry
of foreign troops upon Mexican soil
yet in case our forces were driven to
that extremity, the Mexican govern
ment, which acknowledged its abili
ty to properly protect the frontier,
would not seriously complain. This
of course, puts a wholly different
face upon the matter. General
Sheridan and Secretary Belknap,
were down in that region a few
weeks ago, and as they of course
knew all about the correspondence
with Mexico, General McKenzie was
instructed to do just what he has
since done. He is now under orders'
to kill, the Kickapoos whenever and
wherever he can find them, and the
most recent dispatches from that re
gion represent that the Mexicans
themselves will be well placed to be
rid of their marauding Indian neigh
bors. The Kickapoos aie the Tar
tars of the southwest. They do not
hunt like other Indians, but they
live by raiding upon the farms and
cattle ranches of Texas and Mexico.
They value nothing that is not sto
len, and no stolen property so much
as that which has been stolen with
the accompaniments of rapine and
murder. Tliey liave lor years
made the border line between-3Iexi-co
and the United States their bul
wark of safety in retreating' from
their pursuers on either side. It is
impossible to stand upon dignity or
international etiquette when fighting
an enemy-like this. Tie only effec
tive policy is to strike the rascals
wherever they can be found, and to
follow them to their dens, whether
in Texas or Mexico. This is the
policy which the administration has
determined on, and now that the un
derstanding with Mexico is known,
that policy will; we think, be very
generally ' approved. The Indian
tribes at large need a who.Iesom les
son, and the Modocs and Kickapoos
have fully earned the distinction of
being made examples of. '
LATE MINISTER ORR.
His Last Sickness and the Funeral Services
at St, Petersburg.
New York, Mat 31. St. Peters
burg letter writter. under date 3f
the 8th instant, sends the following
sketch of the sickness and death
and funeral services over the re
mains of the late United States Min
ister to the court of the Czar. The
diplomatic career of Govenor Orr
came to a painful end before it was
fairly begun. It is not qnite two
months since he arrived in St. Pe
tersburg and presented his creden
tials to the Emperor. He was suf
fering at tue time Irom a severe
cold contracted during the Atlantic
passage, and about a week after bis
formal installation in his new office
he was forced to take to his bed.
From that day he did not leave bis
appartments. The cold settled on
his luugs and afterwards, passed to
his liver, so that his blood became
seriously affected. No serious re
suit was apprehended, however, and
on Friday, four days before he died
his friends thought he was slowly,
yet steadily improving, but on Mon
day last there was a change, and he
died quite suddenly at two o'clock.
The funeral services were celebra
ted to-day in the chapel of the English-American
Society There was
no discourse, and the pastor simply
read the impressive ritual of the
Church of England, and closed
With a short prayer only. The lit
tie chapel was by no means fulL
There Were some dozen ladies, En
glish and . American, half a dozen
American gentlemen in black, and
thirty or forty Diplomats in their
brilliant,yet sombre court costumes.
The Austrain Ambasador was there,
Ministers of Brazil, Italy, Greece,
andattaches of other Legislations as
well as of the Foreign office. Mr-J
L. Orr, J r, the solitary family mourn-
enstocd side by side with Gen. Pom
ntz,uonsnl, who wore tne familliar
uniform of a brigadier General
the American Army: The -scene
was indescribably sad. After the
rector had finished the service the
Diplomats walked around the uoffin
and dropped each upon it a little
sand. ; The civilians present did
the same, and as the mellow Rus
sia! sua broke through the stained
windows of the humble church the
cortege took up and passed mourn-
Hilly away, llie few Americans in
St. .Petersburg there ) are not
above half a dozen families were
very attentive to the unfortunate
Minister, and since his death- have
taken entire charge of the funeral
arrangements. . The English friends
of the Legation have also been ve
ry kind, and the sad circumstances
surrounding the case have awaken
ed general sympathy in the Diplo
matic corps.

ABOUT THE ELEPHANT.
The Cleveland Herald says, an
elephant out side the canvas is the
poorest thing possible to have on
hand. What can one do with an
elephant?. He is not a plaything,
and he cannot be made available on
a farm, and he must be kept secure
ly or he will break things. To show
an elephant is indispensable, but no
where else. Jhe most troublesome
elephant we know of not connected
with a menagerie is George Francis
Train. He is sane enough to be put
in the Tombs of New York on an ac
tion for publishing obscene papers j
but he is crazy enough on the trial j
to be acquitted on the ground Of his
insanity and certified to the Lunatic
Asylum. There he is sane enough
to be discharged on a writ of habeas
corpus and now he is loose and is
breaking things. His last perfor
mance is a suit against the city of
New Y'ork for false imprisonment.
In the Tombs he is such an elephant
that to get rid of him he is pronoun
ced insane, and in the Asylum he is
such an elephant that to get rid of
him he was prononced sound in the
head. - ;-

the administration isat last willing
to admit that Colonel MacKenzie
djd not pursue the Kickapoos into
Mexico withput, instructions from
Washington and the President is
made to say that if Mexico is to be
an asylum for highway robbers af
ter the United States' protests, we do
not intend to sanction it, and if the
Mexican Government complains,this
administration has resolved to treat
the accessor as guilty as the princi
pal. Col. MacKenzie has received
orders to exterminate the Kickapoos
and the Lipans.
A little school girl in Danbuiy has
