Our Pittsburgh neighbOrs have Away. had
knack Of bringing the good things of the earth into
their own bounds whether it was coal oil, or iron
that was desirable. they promptly stretched out
railroad and put themselves en- rapport with 1t.
Within the last week or two, however, they have
extended their lines of communication as to in
cude the other world. Daily advices from heaven
are received ~ regularly cable dispatches. The
occasion of this phenomenon was row
which occurred lately at place called
Kelly's Station. between the Unversalsts and
certain brethren of the Methodist persuasion. Party
feeling ran high and hard words higher IA TO the
number of the redeemed. The UniyerSalists being
in the majority and the MethOdsts but feeblehOck.
Orthodoxy was about to suffer signal defeat, when
a fair convert Miss Emeline Taylor, came TO the
cue with an opportune fit This attack vision has
lasted seven days, during which the seoress has
eaten nothing being fully occupied in exploring
Heaven as thoroughly as our Commission intends,
we hope. to explore Santo Domingo. She appears TO
have left her powers of speech behind as contrary TO
all parallel lin which the vision repOrtedony
when it over,) her tongue wags increasingly, re-
porting familiar conversations in very bad grammar
between herself and God the Father and Son. OF
course she finds only the limited number of saints
allowed by orthodoxy, and not q single Uniyer-
salst. On being questioned by physicians as to the
condition of her digestive organs she assures them
that she is fed by miraculous milk and honey. The
amazing part of this story is that physicians and
clergymen stand breatheSs and wondering about her
bed and Pittsburgh is awe-struck and believing.

The progress which the Appropriation bills
mako in the House was marked yesterday by
a little incident. Mr. Haldeman, O Democratic
member who is unknown to fame beyond the
confines of his Pennsylvania district, through
nO mOdesty of his own, moved to increase an
appropriation in the "Sundry Civil bill solely
that he might express his opinion on the High
Commission. The increase In tho sDDroDris-

They have an indirect way of killing bills
in Washington when the popular feeling Il
strong in their favor, and the lobby strong
against them. The House, for instance. AFRAID
to como TO square vote on the repeal OF the
income tax, slaughtered the bill by subter-
fuge. The bill to abolish the franldng priyi-
lege is postponed and postponed and now 1T
probably cannot DO reached. Tho bill TO fix
the rank of staff officers in tlfe navy passed
the House, and has been so "amended' IN
the Senate that there is nothing left OF 1t.
AS it came from the House it was PLAIN
measure of obvious justice, to which we do
not think rational objection could be made /;
az it now appears in the Senate it is a rdicu-
lous and unmeaning enactment, which accom-
plishes nothing whatever. The honorable
gentlemen at the Capitol would gain a great
deal more respect if, when they disapproyed
of o bill. they would fight it on its merits,
and vote against it boldly. This poniard and
dark lantern business deccives nobody. 1t
only shows that Congressman have not the
courage Of their convictions

1t il not in tho nature of things 10 have
pure streams from foul springs. Our present
demoralized police is the natural offspring of a
thoroughly corrupt city government. Those
citizens who are daily beaten by policemen, or
have their children maltreated by them. cannot
expect to find redress from outrages OF their
unruly guardians until they have changed the
power which appoints them.

The Democratic Senators had each another
shy yesterday at the bill to enforce the right
Of citizens to vote; and, of course, all fought
1t as a reform directed against their party.
To take away the power to commit fraud Is to
deprive the sham Democracy of the means
whereby it succeeds in certain sections, and
naturally the proposition creates cOmmOtion.

A New York Palace.

The Residence Of 4. T. .Ssewart, the
Millionaire, iI NelO YOrk.
Cold as a snow hank in December,
rises Stewards marble palace at the
corner of Thirty-fourth street and Fifth
avenue. Fronting on Thirty-fourth St.,
the main entrance is reached by a fight
of eighteen marble steps, the pOrticO
supported by six COriRthian columns.
The architecture of the building is Corr
inthian. The windows on Thirty-fourth
street number tWenty-three; those on
Fifth avenue, nine. The size of these is
in proportion to the height of the differ
ent stories, and each contains a single
pane of French plate glass. Those on
the first or parlor floor have pretty little
balconies. The house is three stories
high, not including a fine basement and
vaulted roof. The white marble stair
way is in the center of the building,
and leads to the upper part Of the house.
The floor of the three stories are of
Italian marble. The first contains the
breakfast-rOOm, with panels of yellow
and gold, brought out by the scarlet
bordering.
On the right Of the entrance is the
reception room, frescOed in blue and
BdlUOu
on the east which has handsome win
dOWs on Fifth avenue and Thirty-fOurth
street. From the grand saloon we enter
Mr.. Stewards billiard room in green
and gold, and through this walk into
the picture gallery, containing a fine
collection of works of nature and foreign
artists. On the north side are placed
paintings by Americans, and to the
other sections belong pictures brought
from abroad. Above all are heads of
French and Americans who are distin-
guished in the works of art, and we
here recognize Rosa BOnheur, Laroche,
Meissonier, Church, Bierstadt, Clifford
and Huntington. The 'Horsefair,' by
Rosa Bonheur, and cattle piece by
her brother, occupy spaces at either end
of the gallarY. ChUrch's magnificent
picture of Niagara and Bierstadt's
Rocky Mountain Scenes also have
places assigned.
On the second floor, several beautiful
rooms form Mrs. Stewards suite; these
are ornamented with rich dark woods.
The room on this floor Immediately
above the grand saloon is the guest
chamber; the billiard room, opening
from this is frescoed in blue and gold.
The rooms above these are said to be de-
signed for distinguished guest.
In this suite We find no marble, but
here everything is simple and elegant;
attached is billiard room, also intend
ed for the guests. The wine room is
near this suite.
The servants apartments in the up
per stories are convenient and comfort
able, and, in the basement, the kitchen,
laundry, attic room, and in fact, every
nru ~, al
finished. But even surrounded by all
this grandeur, those accustomed to the
dainty refinement of smaller home,
where the individuality of each mem
Der is not only seen but felt, realize the
lack which gold can never supply.-M

Beautiful and True.

Tie late eminent judge, Sir Allan
Park, once said, at a public meeting in
London: we live in the midst of bless
ings till we are utterly insensible to
their greatness, and Of the couree from
whence they flow. We speak Of our
civilization, our arts, our freedom, our
laws, and forget entirely how large a
portion is due to Christianity. Blot
Christianity out of the page of mans
history, and what would his laws have
been-what his civilization? Christian
ity is mixed up with our very being and
our daily life; there is not familiar OBJ
ject around US which does not wear a
different aspect because the light of
Christian love is on it-not a law which
does not owe its truth and gentleness to
Christianity-not a custom which can
not be traced, in all its holy, healthful
parts to the gospel

most successful magazine. The serial
story, MY Uncle's Watch, is continued,
the present installment giving fair ex-

other contributed papers are possessed OF
more than ordinary merit. THE YOUNG

those who are neither very young nor
very old, but nevertheless containing
reading for everybody, fills void which
has long gexisted in periodical literature,
and is certain to meet with continue

the value of it's contents and the beauty
Of its appearance.
