In .spileof the so-called death-bed statement of Thurlow Weed concerning Morbid, not a .single Masonic tenipie has fallen yet.

The above appears in tbo Dunsfort local items o( the "Washington, Pa., Observer. Most people would prefer to see about one responsible affidavit for^each ear of corn over three to the Btalk, attached to the statement before taking it in as worthy of belief. 1 The proud State of Ohio has been grossly insulted in the person of her esteemed (iowner. Washington advices say that Governor Foster called severaMimes to see the President, and the President was so busy with his message that he couldn't see I ?Foster. "Bonibardinian has received a blow, and Chrononhotonthologos shall die!? / . Democratic newspapers are busy as* Baring the country that their party won't make a fool of itself in tho new House. To uliow that the part7 newspapers speak by authority, Democratic congressmen are declaring that the present Congress shall not revise the taritl', nor bring down internal taxes. Well, perhaps the new House will display the wisdom of Solomon. Another solemn warning comes from Cincinnati that the William Tell act with the rifle is not a safe diversion. Frayne is not the first alleged actor who lias taken life before the footlights. He was arrested very promptly after his -victim breathed her last. He should have been arrested before he stepped on the stage with hisrille. The feat which he .was attempting is performed with theaid of a mirror, the marksman standing with his back to the target. Death hovers near when the act is peformed. Life is placed in jeopardy wituoui tne suudow 01 a compensating i xood.

He will have no more of' Brady's blighting companionship; he will Ko to trial on Jits own account and Brady may shift for himself, This looks very much as though the keystone is slipping out of the arch. It would not be surprising to see the whole fabric of fraud come tumbling down 'together, burying the <urwtii> III iiic iiuus. jsvmvy in ?ujdiing <?lso but a fool. Besides that, be understands belter than most men this special ease. If he thinks there is nothing lo be Rained and much to be lost by a con-1 cert of conspirators, the outlook for justice! is improved. But Brady's personal horizon is streaked with blackness. When Marshal Henry was in the De* pnrtment of Justice, on the 2d of June last, to be raked over the coals by the Attorney General for allowing improper men to get on the jury, he did not suspect that a verbatim report of that interview would someday he given to the public. And the fact that the whole thing has been given to the world will make uncomfortable some other people who have had talks with the Attorney General in his oflice. Since that high official has himself Jet the cat out of the bug it will do no warm to say that when he is about to talk with a visitor on business of importance ho gives the cue to his short-hand writer. Xho visitor doesn't know but the writer is merely a clerk, plodding away at bis work, paying no attention to the conversation. But he is one ol tlio best in the business, and lio jots down every word. It is a hard thing for a man to wriggle out of what ho has said when a third party can-point to it on paper, taken down as it was uttered, and will swear to it if necessary. There is a good ileal more than ruffles under the Attorney General's ugly white fur hat.

The postodice has been turned over to tho new postmaster. Jt was unnouuced this morning that prominent members of Congress and others In thoAVest had sent telegrams to ex-Postuiasler Ainger, informing him that they were hastening to this city to support him. Thomas J. Brady's afternoon organ says that Ainger's removal will increase his popularity in Michigan, and may cause his election to the Senate as a compromise candidate, against both Kerry and Hubbell. This organ adds that Ainger baa received telegrams from leadingItepublieahB urging him to become a candidate and pledging him their support. Michigan is called a half-breed State, and Ainger's chances are said to be good on that account. Mr. Ainger is as unfortunate in his choice of an organ n?<pnii..U.I.'AH .1" r?... - few months ago. This attempt to make him a candidate for the Senate will interest his patron, Senator Ferry, wbo is now seeking a renomination, and who is said to have ' secured a majority of tlie delegates. Senator Ferry, as chairman of tlie Senate Coram itteo-oruPostoflices and Post Roads, has been regarded as j Mr. Ainger's backer. The report made by Inspectors Tidballand Shallcross concerning bogus bonds and the manner in which they were certified by Mr. Ainger was referred to that committee on January a, 1882. The President had seut to the Senate this report, "to which," he Baid "I invito your careful attention." Neither the Semite committee nor tho House committee took any action concerning this report, although its importance had been made so clear by the accompanying letters of the President, PostmasterGeneral James, and Mr. Georgu Bliss that the House, by vote, gave its committee liberty to report a bill upon the subject at any time. Senator Ferry must have seen, if he read this important report, tho proof that Mr. Ainuer had violated tho law. LIEUTENANT CHIITN UEI'OUT. 'fb? Valuable Observationsof I lieExocti* live Officer of llieJeamielto Not Lo?, | Washington*, November 30.?In tlie telegrams and letters relating to the loss of the Jeannette, which were received from Kortheflsteni Siberia, in the course of last winter and Bpring, it was several times stated as a fact greatly to he regretted, that all the records of the careful and complete series of auroral and magnetic observations, two thousand or more iu number^madeby . Lieutenant Charles W. Chinp, executive otlicer of the Jeannette during that illfated steamers long drift in the Arctic paek, had been irretrievably lost. The destruction of these records was greatly de pioreu oy scientiiic men everywhere, lor tbe reason that so complete and continuous a series as this of magnetic observations Jiad never before been made in tbe part of tho polar area across which the Jcaunetto drifted, and would probably never be made again. It was also.deeplv regretted /or the reason that the records were records of knowledge bought with. brave men's lives, and ware perhaps the only scientific fruits of a disastrous expedition. No details were given by. the dispatches and letters above referred to of the way in which these records were lost; but it was supposed that they were in the possession of their author, Lieutenant Cbipp, and that they sank with liim into the Artie ocean when the second cutter foundered oil' the month of the Lope. It was ascertained today, and is stated upon the Authority of Engineer Melville, that a complete popy of Lieutenant Chipp's auroral hnd magnetic observations has been found among the | official papers of Captain DeLong; that it is j now in tbe custody of the Secretary of the Navy, and that it will be published in full | as part of the final report' of the Jeannette court 01 inquiry. It appears that a copy of the record of every day's magnetic observations was submitted by Lieutenant Chipp over his signature to Captain De Long, to be incorporated with the official papers of the Jcnnnette expedition. The original notes of th(*observations Lieuteuuut Chipp retained in his own possession, and it js supposed they were lost with him. The copy, however, was among the records and papers found by Engineer Melville at the place where Captain De Long and his comrades died, and it is now ill the hands of Secretary Chandler. It comprint records of between two and three thousand observations. . ? BF.DUCINU INTKUXAL TAXES. The l*lna Wlilctt the President "Will M'robnblf Kceommeud. Washington*. November jJ0.?For uevar al weeks past prominent Republican members of the Senate and House have been In conference by mail and in person with the President, Secretary of the Treasury and Commissioner of Internal Revenue, in revenue, in relation to a reduction of internal revenue taxes at the approaching session of Congrew. The President, it is said, will recommend in his message the general conclusion arrived at from this interchange of opinion. The plan proposed is a reduction of the taxation on whisky to sixty cents or fiftv cents pergalion; of the tax on tobacco to eight cents per pound, or cigars to four dollars and three dollars per thousand on beer to fifty cents per barrel net, and a reduction of 50 per cent, on all special li cense taxes. All other internal taxes are to bo abolished, 'f bi^ gpaling would leave an income from internal tasaiiop of about $50,000,000, not including in the C3tiinnte the increased consumption which would follow reduced taxation. The redaction would amount to about $t$,00Q,Q0Q.

Garfield's recent ^ purchase of a $50,000 house in Cleveland, c Ohio. There are those who condemn her a appropriation of so largo a sum to this pur- * pose, and atfribute to her a vanity and J desire for display wholly inconsistent with B her previous record.- A personal friend of Mrs. Garfield said to a correspondent yesterday that nothing could be more cruelly 8 unjust than such interpretation of her re- {, cent negotiations in real estate. "The facts t, are these," said, her friend. "The house a and grounds which she has selected are v regarded by her business advisors as nuir- h ketable property liablo to enhance c in value. Mentor is tho home (] of her heart, where she hopes in the ti coming years to make her abiding place, e and to which her children cling with ten- r acious love. For the next live or six years, u houev'Qr, she must Jive where her three h younger children can have educational a opportunities. The public will bear iu 8 mind the fact that Mrs. Gariield, during s tho past twelve mouths, has been weighed t! down with the responsibility of discreetly a adjusting her fatherless family to a home a tiiat should secure to them requisite ad- g vantages. "While she would have gladly u cloistered her widowed life-iu the dear d Mentor home, for her children's sake she a must for the greater, part of the year reside g, in town. It goes without saying that h Bhe should depend largely U])on" the o advice of friends in business arrangements, a and that when an eligible home was re t commended to her, with extra induce* ti ments of carpets and furniture litted to li their places, sue should ttladlv avail hercolf ? oi her opportunities. While there may be differences ol opinion as to the business \] sagacity of her counsellors, there should bo u no criticism of the modest, unassuming, \] pad-hearted woman, who, in the Judgment jj of those who know her most intimately, is no legs a heroine to-day than she was when at the bedside of her martyred husband." * ?-?- ^ ? ? ....

Nearly 10,000 overia ow dot this region, having a capacity of 000 cars ot coke per dayf This f] idufltry, together with tho iron fur- fl aces, of which there are four in ^ ayette county, gives rise to an B normoua freight trallie from tliese two t ouuties. There is considerable activity in j; lilroad circles In this county nowadays, ft he railroad companies have been aiming ii j extend their lines so as to keep pace c ith tho rapid development of the coke ndirou industries. The direction of this evelopmeut is southward toward tho Vest Virginia line, which Statu touches ? ayette on the south. It has not been long iuce there were no coke works as far v juth in this county as Unioutown, but g ow there aro several different works, 0 ritli huudreds of ovens In opera- I. ,011 and many others in progress of ercc- ji on. The rivalry among the competing \t nes of railway to share the heavy proiits n f the coko carrying traflic has led to great ctivity in the construction and exiension f lines. An idou nf tlm *?t c may bo gained from tho fact thatdurig tho.week just closed tho Pennsylvania jad alone carried 54,000 tonsof coke, with Btill larger amount of coal. And thiB too ai t a time when cars are so scarce that the et ausportation is not nearly equal to the b> Hunt capacity. ' .5! UAI1.R0A1) FACILITIES* ?
