Abberrations of a Crazy King.

1t would appear from the following extract
f-orn tia Yi-Iiau correspondence of the Phila-
delphiA Bulletin, taat the demented King OF
Prussia has not been permanently improved by
his residence at Nice:
"The King before coming to Italy, for about
three hours every day, was quite crazy but since
his arrival he has much improved and there are
great hopes that the pristine vigor of intellect
for which he had previously been celebrated,
would be quite restored. Every day the aber-
rations were less decided, and finally he was SO
much better, that the doctor allowed small
dinner party The Royal patient was sane all
day, received his guests, chatted, laughed and
was quite Jolly; the dinner was announced, the
company marched in, the King of course took
his place at the head of the table, and ev-
erybody waited for him to set the example to
put their spoons in their mouths. But instead
of ding what was expected of him, his MaJes-
ty deliberately washed his face in the soup, and
then sat complacently smiling on his friends,
the long strings of vermieeli hanging down
over his ewes and nose, and In his hair and
moustaehe. You nay imagine the effect no
one dared to laugh, however, and they had to SIT
out the dinner with this ridiculous figure head
covered with gravy, (for ne sternly refused
towels,) talking to them all the while. Some
Central African traveller relates that the dan
dies in an AbyssiniaD Il think it was) town US
ed to put pound of butter on their heads, aid
then walk in the sun; but think my story Is
the best"

Senator Aason's resolutions mPaw efing the
President to use tine army and navy at his dis
cretion against our Spanish American neigh
bors, caused much surprise, as coming from so
cautious Senator. 1t virtually gives the Pres
ident the power to declare war, which consti-
.tutionally belongs to Congress.
MIR. Wilson's speech on the Pacific Railroad
billwas highly successful, as was his subsequent
debate with Messrs Iverson and Jefferson Da-
Wis
The House deserves high credit for its signal
rebuke of fllibusterism 10 day. The fllibus'
ters could muster only Sc votes. This shows
that the corruption of the Administration on IN
ternational relations has not vitiated Congress
Mr. Sherman's motion to refer the Naval aP-
propriations to the Naval Committee seems
likely to prevail. If so, the adoption of the
principle will lead to further retrenchment and
expenditures.
The Government has suspended payment
There is no money in the Treasury.

1t is true, as has been stated, that a club ha;
been organized here for the purpose depressing
John NJ. Bolts as the Opposition candidate fol
the Presidency. Few persons here, except
those who have initiated the movement, attach
any importance to it. 1t is simply several fos-
sill Wings, who have not been able to find par
ty to SUIT them, that have undertaken to build
one for themselves, making Bolts fgure-head

Ann,her CnId Term East.

The 10th of January was the coldest DAY
known in New York for seventy years. So
says the weather guage, E. Merriam, OF Brook
lyn Heights. The mercury in Thermometers
exposed to the north wind at noon stood at nine
degrees below zero From u o'clock on Sat
urday night to o'clock on Tuesday morning,
the cold was most unusually severe not only In
New York but all over the Northern and Eas-
tern States. Around Lake Champlain and the
st. Lawrence the mercury at sunrise on Mon
day stood from SC to 40 degrees below zero; and
in the latitude of Boston, New York and But
falo from 10 to 20 degrees below.
In New York the gas and water pipes were
seriously obstructed by frost. Stage drivers
were frozen on Broadway, and one at the end
of his route was found dead on the omnibus box.
Another was so frozen that he fell helpless
from his box while the vehicle was in motion.
A third on the Eighth-avenue line of cars had
to be removed from his position, and was not
expected to live. Frozen hands, feet and faces
were common on the uncommon cold day. Po-
lice officers were also frozen, and some of them
disabled by frost What was singular in the
late cold term, the most intense cold was at mid
day

Blast Furnace.

The Messrs. Mendenhalls, Cyrus & Moses,
and Mr.. G. z jenkins, have their new Fur
mace at Martinville, Belmont county, O., near
" ready to put in blast. They are now putting
fuel in the stack-hOuse, and will begin getting
in the ore in few days By private letter
to a gentleman of this city, we learn that they
set the first stakes for this furnace on the 18th
of July last, and put the first fire in, to warm
and dry out, on the sth inst. 1t is claimed that
this is the most complete Furnace in the State,
and the proprietors have full confidence that
the enterprise will be highly remunerative.
They have the materials, iron ore, coal and
limestone, all on their own land, and can bring
them together at much less expense than at
Massillon or Youngstown. When the metal
is made, it is in market, on their own lands.
