THE DISTRICT COURT
/. He HAS NO EMINENCE AS A TAwYER.-Previous
10 his election by Councils City Solicitor, he wa
scarcely known professionally, and while City Solcl-
tor he was remarkable only for cl udy opinions and
the fidelity with which he collected costs.
9. He HAS BEEN A RASH SPECULAToR.-Oll Comps-
MES, without Oil: Coal Companies, without coal
there was an abundance Of dust-and Building Assc-
Citations, without substs nLal basis, have been his
hobbies and he has ridden them, while many nnc-
cent contributors have trudged along on foot.
3. For the purpose OF securing and retaining public
positions he has resorted most dishonoraole expo
dents. 1t is said that q political bar5er made him
the President of Select Council. While holding
that Office he was, contrary TO the spirit OF the law,
made City Solicitor; and then by special legislation
at Harrisburg, obtained iy his personal efforts ana
other means, he PROLONGED HIS TENURE or OFFICE
FOR ONE YEAR.
4. He is A NINDICTlvE MAN.-We give an eXaT-
ple-ODe OF our city Representatives at IL trrisburg
opposed the bill extending Mr.. Lyn Is term of oic.
Up to that time they on intim ite and familiar
terms. Since that time Nj. LyId has never recoc

hoed at every corner; letters soliciting interview

boltood, in consultation with his poli.ilc Il adhe

by minority-114 out OF a convention o; 306 dele

g. Among the few lawyers who voted for him,
not one of professional distinction can he named.
We write with an accurate list OF all in the conven-
tion who supported him. before us, and challenge
cont adiction.
I. He has long roll OF judgments against him in
The Court OF which he seeks to be member
s. He would be liable to have suits brought
against him in his own Court, and suits OF such
nature as to compel his associates upon the bench
to pass upon the honesty of some OF his former ousi
ness transactions.
9. At every term of the Court there would be
Jurors upon the panel who had suffered either from
his lack OF Judgment or his financial "operatCns'
and this wou be impair their confidence in any
statements he might make touching the matter
before them. lt

Fanny Janauschek, who first came to this
country three years ago. asd who has since
become well known as German actress to the
people of the United States, is in reality
native OF Prague, Bohemia, aud the German
language is almost as foreign to her as the
English in which, next Mondly evening she is

fdoubt that Janauschek is fine actress, aud that

IL Is said that circular will soon be sent BY the

failibity It Is evidently their design to Il force
even the Holy Father into this precipitate poll

number Of adherents to their party unless he
publicly commits himself in favor Of the dogma.
The report that the Pope will allow no discus
sion ON infallibilty in the Council, unless he is
sure of the result is confirmed. He receives
such petitions as the above, but simply as the
expressions Of homage to the Holy See.

Members of Congress are receiving letters
asking if the income tax must be paid this year.
The law is 50 plain that it would seem as if no
one need to raise this question. Taxes cannot
be laid on this years income, but they must be
paid this spring on last years income, and the
Revenue Bureau is now having proper blanks
printed. 1t is not yet certain what action the
Ways and Means Committee will recommend in
reference to the continuation of the tax, but il
Is not at all likely that Congress will re-enact it
at five per cent. The probabilities are that
three per cent will finally be fixed upon, with
some change in the list OF exemptions.

MORE LABoIERs FOR THE SOUTH.-On
Friday morning a large number of colored
Selma, Marion and Memphis railroad. Fifty to
one hundred will leave for the same point Mon
day, and every other day, we are told, number
will go TO work on the same road, of which
General Forrest is president, and General Lind
sey Walker, late OF Virginia, is superintendent.
These hands go via Virginia and Tennessee Air
Line. This fast, cheap and popular line has
carried South in the last few months several
thousand laborers to work on railroads and farms
in Tennessee. Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi,
Louisiana and Texas. They are carried at the
rate, we learn, Of two cents per mile each,
which is certainly very low. Several planters
from Louisiana and Mississippi are now in the
city in search OF hands. Cotton is still in the
boil in the fields of many planters in the above
States, hence the great desire for labor before
the rainy seasons set in, in order that the cot
ton may be gathered.-Richnlond Inquirer

New York, via Charleston, arrived at Havana
Friday night, and fifteen more arrived from
New York Saturday at noon. Thyy were ac-
cOmpaDied by the war steamer Pizarro. Cap-
tain General DeROdas has issued proclama-
ton generally complimentary to the behavior
Of the citizens and the army. He saws the
strength of the army has not been diminished
by the sickly season; that the insurgents have
been defeated generally; that the insurrectiOn
Is confined to the mountains, and that the rebels
are not insurgents in war, but incendiaries.

Reading Matter on Every Page.

The Intenigencer Is discontinued with to-day's
issue. The proprietor, Mr.. Delmar, SAYS " that
having lost several thousand dollars in it al
ready, and being in poor health, he has resolved
to discontinue Its publication" The suspension
OF that paper adds another to the long list of
newspaper wrecks in this city. 1t was origi-
nally started under the name of the Express, a.
an afternoon paper, avowedly in rivalry to The
STAR, and with the expectation of being able
speedily to wrest from this paper its supremacy
In circulation and business. 1t was started
under unusually favorable auspices, with an
ample pecuniary base, and an excellent corps
Of reporters and editorial writer's. The cam
paign was opened in a lively manner, and kept
mp with vigor, though conducted with perfect
good temper on both sides. The result, how
ever, as In the previous numerous attempts to
run The STAR of the track, showed how nearly
impossible it is to supplant well-established
paper so long as il Is conducted with energy,
industry and discretion. IL the field Is large
enough, the aspirant may build up a
success OF his own, but Is not likely to
trench upon that OF his neighbOr. Though
the Express, at one time, had, undoubt-
edly, good circulation. it was certainly not
gained at the expense of THE STAR. Probably,
during the existence of THE SrAR-cover;no
nearly fun score of years-n0t much less than
half a million of dollars has been spent in the
various attempts to establish paper that should
be able to contest successfully with 1t for the
leading circulations and business here. We
have long since ceased to dread any attempt
at rivalry, feeling that our existence is pretty
well assured, and having the best wishes for the
success Of our neighbors- Thus we can afford to
"welcome the coming, and speed the parting
guest in the sunniest temper imaginable This
is a prolific soil for newspaper ventures, and if
their lives are somewhat short we trust they
may always at least be merry.
