Thb Cleveland, Ohio, papers are indulg ing tn a glow of congratulations that theii town is no longer lighted at night by a time table regulated by the moon. The streel lamps now burn all night and tlfu papers sav the street* of the city are sale for pedestrlaus all night and every night in the year. St. Paul is about to enter upon the enjoyment ol this same provision for the public peace anil safety and the boon of lamps to guide their feet for those whose business and duty call upon them to pass about during the nigh hours. Well lighted streets during the hours of darkness is tlie universal demand. Gall and venom seem to run through the amiable Blaine family. A peculiar kind ol '■iiUn, philosophic resignation was exhl bited by the head of the family In his /kngnsts speech. The old man protects the honor oi the family with his life. The younger eclot protects the honor of the family with an int bottle. A few days ago, iu the "eulchawed"' city of B iston, Jam-s G. , Jr., burled an ink bottle at a young man who was so imprudent, as to express the opinion, in the presence ol the young kid, that the bead of the family is not a saint. Of course both father and son are amply vindicated. The city authorities of Brooklyn, New York, are puttiug a heavy hand ou lewd theatricals to suppress them. So bold bad these theatrial managers become, that they placarded the city with obscene lithographs and poster*. This outraged the decent sen timent of the city, not a squeamish, linieai religious sentiment merely, but a sentiment equally removed from Puritanism and pru riency. Some of the posters put on the St. Paul bulletin boards this winter have pic tured women in a sufficient state of nudity to easily guess the rest, and have thus in vaded the realm of decency and modesty. Boca posters should be promptly banished from public view. Tue Governors of some of the states are anxious to provide a remedy for the crude, illogical, illegal law making work of the leg islatures, which pay little or no attention tn the construction of measures that must pass the test of the closest legal scrutiuy. In three states, ludiana, Maine and New York, it Ig urged that tbe legislatSres appoint a legal commission to examine all bills matured in committee, correct them as to construction, phraseology, harmony with existing laws and court decisions, to obviate the unbearable blundering aud contradiction that appears to be the only capability of the average legisla ture. The reform, If Instituted, will prove of incalculable public benefit. I>? the sympathy for "poir Gen. Grant," aud the auxiety to "keep the wolf from his door," it is generally forgotten that be is in the regular yearly receipt of $15,000, the In terest of a trust fund raised for hi* benefit, and so wisely guarded that he could not squander it In Wall street gambling. Mr*. Grdnt could well afford to reject Mr. Van derbilt's munificent gift, wbeu in the re ceipt of so ample an income, tbe gratuitous provision of friends years ago. The fact is the Grants have lived upon no earnings ol their own, but upon the gift* of millionaires ever since the war. But even, since their Wail street remarkable exploit*, tt seems they are rich enough to snub go > 1 Mr. Van derbtlt, in the rejection of bis proffered bene faction. Tub French are determined to create sources of revenue, and a proposed levy will reach two widely differing classes of persons identical lu tha singleness of their state On the 27th of December lust the senate of r'ranee adopted the ciuti.se establishing the taxation of religious bodies. The taxation of bachelors, heretofore a matter of jest, has been taken into serious consideration in France, and will result In an enactment. Tlie argument Is that a man who rears a family doe-, the state service, which, in curi ous discrimination, add* to his burdens while favoring the man who shirks them. The life of a bachelor may have blessed ira miin'tle*. but exemption from taxation is uot going to be one of them in France after he got* to be thirty or so.

History will do Justice to both Sherman and Davis, awarding merit to tb* oue, and demerit to tbe other, as their action and character may deserve. The ex-General, overborne by tho weight of years, gives evidence by bis nerv ous excitability of rapidly going to seed. He deserves pity more than anger, and the Senate is more to blame than he is by suffer ing itself to be put upon a false scent by the broken visiou of an aged chieftan. DRIVES FROM EVliLIC LIFE. The Boston Herald says that Mr. Colfax was driven from public life, though a man of popular and engaging manners and of no mean ability, because of his supposed con nection with the Credit Mobilier. Nothing was tbsolutely proved against him beyond the fact that he subscribed for twenty shares of tbe Credit Mobilier stock, on which be made one payment of $500. He always contended that be declined to go into it any further, because the company became in volved In a lawsuit, and tbat he never re ceived tbe stock or any dividends upon it. But the fatal notebook of Oakes Ames dis closed a check for #1,200, payable to "S. C, or bearer," which, Mr. Ames said, was paid I to Colfax through the ofke ot the sergeant st-arms. Mr. Colfax produced his bank book and there was a credit of $1,200 in the same month in which the check was payable. Mr. Colfax was Speaker of the House at the time of this transaction. When we compare this transaction with those of his successor in tbe Speaker's chair, the late Republican can didate for President, It is ns clear as day that the same stern sense of justice which drove Mr. Colfax from public life made the nomin ated of Mr. Blaine for President a serious political blunder, to say the least. EAR.WM'S OFFER. There are people who think tbat Gen. Graut was insulted by Bamuiu when he of fered $100,000 for the privilege of exhibiting the general's gifts, relics and trophies. Wben tbe senior member of the confidence firm of GraDt & Ward threw iu his "name and influence" as capital, and H9 induce ments in procuring government contracts, surely an offer to raise the wind on bis more tangible possessions Is not such an affront. Almost everything in American life Would seem to gravitate to a financial basis—even the fame of Ulysses S. Grant. But possibly tbe peculiar name and occu pation of Baruum made his offer distastelul. Yet, on the other hand, Gen. Grant has bad intimate friends In a national wblsky ring, a safe burglary, aud (u organized plunder at Washington beside whom the proprietor of the "greatest show on earth" Is a regular Chevalier Bayard without fear and without reproach. His Jolce Hetbs, wooly horses, and bogus white "sacred" elephants are harmless ec centricities of business compared with tbe methods of Joyce, "Sylpb" McDonald, Har- ' rlngton and the crooked Sliepherd. In that heyday of unexampled political sway, very j few people dared to admit openly Hint such unvarnished countenance I 'of republican freebooters was au iusu't to! upright government. Vara a mushroom firm of financiers is j grounded on the traditional prestige which ajaj while Invited alliances .apple In the I maneuvers ot swag, It is not surprising tbat | such luck should turn, and the long-eu dowed favorite of exceptionally brilliant for tune come lo salutary grief, if it be salutary. Someone says It mat be too late to turn over a new leaf, wben there are only a few pages left. Gen. Grant must stand by bis record. It Is well for him tnat bi* military fame will largely cancel bis political and financial repu tation. While congress has been pondering bis case, the following dispatch Is going tbe rounds of the press: Wasiiisiitom, Jan. 2.—While sympathy Is sought for <(en.

Attemptinir to Remove a Lady Irom a School Superinteudency—Smith Park Beloug-s to St. Paul. Railways Must Put np Fence«-A Warehouse Decision. Under the title of state of Minne sota ex rel. W. J. Hahn, attorney general, John D. Wilcox complainant vs. Mrs. Ella Gordon, a paper was filed in the clerk of the supreme court's office yesterday. The docu ment sets forth that Mrs. Gordon has wrong fully usuryed tbe office of school superin tendent of Pine county and holds the same agaitist Wilcox, wbo wus lected In 1881 for two yours or until a successor was elected and qualified. In the 1883 election votes were improperly cast for Mrs. Ellu, who was not wllgible to the office, and though Wilcox was elected to the positiou, she entered his office Dec. 14, 1883, and demanded his papers aud blanks, which beiug refused, she set up shop for her self, draws pay as such officer from the couuty, and has entirely ousted him from the position in whleh he is anxious: to serve. He asks a writ of quo warranto to compel her to appear before tbe court to show her right to the office and why the dethroned Wilcox shall not be restored. Justice Mitchell in an opinion made public yesterday confirms ttie title to Smith park to the city of St. Paul and d runt* th* attempt of heirs or their representatives to secure that property. Another opinion by Justice Mitchell estab lishes the rule that no one but a municipal officer can draw his pay aud that such pay is not attachable at law. Another opinion of the same justice rules that railways have no right to neglect putting up fences and cattle guards iu cities and vil lages as well as in the country, except around depots and freight houses which are presumably open to public passenger travel and traffic. Justice Mitchell also rules, in an opinion published In the court columns of the Globe to-day, that the warehouse receipts given the First and Secoud National bsuks of Winona by John M. Cole, deceased, a miller, as col lateral on his notes of $5,000 and $3,000 cashed by these institu tions respectively, do not come under the Warehouse Act of 1876, show that uo spe cific property ever passed title to pledgee, or that goods passed, and tbat the banks have no title to wheat in the deceased mil! and uo right to preference over other creditors In the distribution of tbe proceeds to the said Cole estate. AMUSEMENTS. The Tteo John*. The farewell performance of those princes of fun makers, "The Two Johns," was given at tbe Grand last night to a fair sized and very appreciative audience. The matiuce performance was also fairly attended, aud ull lu all the engagement was a success. Alice Ollte*. The engagement of tbis popular opera bouffe performer aud ber company, at the Olympic theater, has thus far proveu a great success. Crowded bouses have been the rule during the week, and the melodious aud comical burlesque of '"Blue Beard," with its merry songs and opportunities for acting never lulls of pleasing the audience. The same bill to-uight. Mndime Janausehek. The engagement of this distinguished tragedieuue opens at tbe Grand to-night when will be presented for tho first time in St- Paul her new and successful play of "My Life." The following brief sketch of her life will be read with interest: Madame Jauauschek came among us a stranger, Ignorant of our language as well ns the people to whom she presented herself as a candidate for favor, and she remains among us yet. a permanent uud splendid oruameut of the American .stage. Frauccsea Hounina Magdalena Jau auschek was born at Prague, Bohemia, on July 20, 1837. Of a family of uiue children she was the fourth. Her father Wus a merchant, whom business reverses overtook, Franeesca hud developed an extraordinary musical talent In her childhood, and at the age of ten was a brilliant pianist and phe nomenal vocalist. At sixteen she went on the stage at Prague. Shortly afterward she accepted tbe first engagement offered, and went to Chemnitz, where she jolued s travel ing company at $14 |ht month. Sot daily she soon rose above her position on the Stage, and made sucb rapid advance lu her profes sion that at the age of eighteen she applied s* h'Hiling actress st tbe Studt theatre at Frankfort, There she remained for eleven year* and made her reputation. The find year her salary reached #800, and Hfter that $1,000, besides benefits, which amounted to over $1,000 per year more, At tbe end of the eleven years, and ut Ibe age of twclity niue, she closed as a star. There was but oue thing left for her to win, and that wa* the title of "Royal actress." For a year and a half she starred through Europe, which whs then abluze witb her fame, aud at the end of that time accepted a three years' contract willi the Royal theatre ut Dresden, at a *;il sry of %i.'iW.

The emigrant rate war mentioued a few 1 days ago by the Globe still abides with us and seems to become even more violent than it has been heretofore. The Erie, New York Central, and Lackawanna railroad com panies have agreed not to meet the $1 emi grant rate of the Pennsylvania I\>iilroad \ company from New York to Chicago, prefer- ; riug uot to carry passengers at a rate that . does uot cover the cost of transportation. An official of one of the truuk lines; makes the following statement in regard to the eanss of the action of the Pennsylvania roa'd: "It is a well understood fact among ocean j carriers that the Pennsylvania Railroad com- ' puny has for years fostered the American and Red Star Steamship Hues, whose emi grants have beeu lauded at the port of Phila delphia aud carried from Europe to the west by that route at lower fares than have been ; \ srriUteu to the steamship lines lauding their emigrants at the port of New York. My tbia discrimination in favor of Philadelphia j against New York tlie Pennsylvania com pany estranged the New York steamship in terests, and, having failed in its efforts to secure from tlie New York steamship lines as favorable a share of emigrant business as those lines accorded to the Erie and New ] York Central companies, has apparently ein 1 braced the present ipportunity, when a wide spread demoralization of rates prevails, to I make unprofitable to the other railways a j traffic which, owing to its non-co-operative j policy, the Pennsylvania could not Itself 00 j tain. The theory is that it proposes to con ! tinue the losing rate of $1 to Chicago for j shipping emigrants until such time as the i other trunk lines will consent that it shall j have an equal share with them of the emi grant busiuess of the port of New York and agree thereafter to discontinue entirely the I payment of commissions to steamship com panies and booking ageuts both iu Europe and Ameriea." T/«e I'ropo*ed Ren run n i.ntiitn and Exten *ion of the L'hfrano a* Great Southern Rn.luay. It Is rumored that a syndicate has been, or Is about being formed in Chicago, for tlie purpose of reorganizing the Chicago eS Great Southern railway (now in the hands of a re ceiver), and to exteud it from its present eastern terminus to La Crosse, Im'., where it is to counect with the Chicago ft West Michigan for points in upper Michigati. The Chicago ft Great Southern now runs from Fair Oaks, Ind., to Yeddo, a distance of eighty miles, and It Is also to be extended into the Brazil coal fields, to tup which it wus built In the first phice.
