PLEASANT TRmTTE TO AN "IRrsu GIRL

PLEASANT TRnTTE TO AN "IRIsu GIRL
"A writer in the WonlGa'S Journal says
I have been a hOuse-keeper twenty
years. Seventeen Of the twenty / have
had one and the same Irish girl in my
family. To us she long ago outgrew the
"Irish" and became "our Ann" She it Is
who has helped rear our children, some of
them now grown to manhood. She has
assisted in making their bread and butter,
in cooking their food, in experimenting
their sports and childish tasks. And more
than once has she urreptitiously taken to
their chamber ''just piece" when for
misdemeanor they had been sentsupper-
less to bed. And as the sons begin to talk
of going out from home, to join in the
battle Of life, her true mother.instinct has
been manifested by the quiet, but expires.

Wash. Cor. of Gin. Commercial.
The attendance at Mrs. Grants recep-
ton, to-day, was extraordinary, 80 far as
numbers are concerned. She was assist
ed in receiving by Senator Logan's wife,
which circumstance the quid nuHcS and
gossips regard as Indicative Of q sort Of
locking arm in the Presidential candidacy,
and the abandonment Of the claims on the
part Of Logan to the seat in the White
House. shrewd politicians attach no i'm
portance TO this, however, but allege that
Logan isa well asserted and positively
defined candidate for seat in the White
House; his claim to that position at pres
ent being based upon the united support
Of the Grand Army Of the Republic, and
the promised unanimous support Of all the
Fcnian organizations throughout the
United States.

TIE saddCst and funniest scene Of tho
last week is that wherein poor Salisbury
made the last exhibition Of himself and
Democracy. At 12 noon Of Saturday he
ceased to be a member, but he was so
inebriNted that he forgot it! Senator
sherman rose in the new Congress to
read amemOrial from Alabama, when the
drunken DelawArian staggered to his
feet and shouted ''Misser Speaker l
'GjectP Several Senators called attention
to tho tact that the gentleman was no
longer member, when he knew enough
to apologize, draw, on his hat and leave.
Then another Salisbury came in and took
the vacant seat! That's the worst of 1t.

LATEST FROM WASHINGTON,
The Connecticut observation-disclosures
cans RejoicfngAThe Kuklux Blu
Speech OF Mr.. Cox.

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPATCH.J /
WASHINGTON, April 4.-The Republicans
are disposed to be jubilant over the reports
from Connecticut, but do not relish, the
idea that the official vote will be required
to decide who has been elected. Such a
very close vote where the voters numbered
hundred thousand is not regarded'as a
great victory. There is as much anxiety in
all circles here tonight for definite news as
prevailed yesterday, s7rtgxsg s~r7-
Representative Cox, in his speech ID the
House to-day, made a new point on the
kuklux legislation which, attracted earnest
attention. Substantially. it was that. all
secret organizations Of a political nature
were the offspring of oppression, and
claimed that if such organizations as were
alleged to exist in certain parts of this coun-
try did actually exist, they were the legiti-
mate fruits ofsinjustice, and that: the pro-
per way TO- suppress them was to remove
the cause. TREDEGAR.

The New York Financial Market
The Bull Movement.

NEW YORK, April 4.-The course of the
money market is the chief topic of discus
sion in financial circles to-day. The adj
vance in the rate of interest yesterday at
forded capitalists and banks a preteXt for
marking up loans. The marking up and
shifting of loans caused an active demand
for money on the Stock Exchange during
the morning, and 7 per cent. was. the
ruling rate on call, and in borrowing and
loaning of stocks. Except in 4 feWcases,
this rate was also strictly adhered to.
During the afternoon money was actually
dealt in on the street at I, and the usual
crowd collected, but towards the close of
bank hours there was an easier feeling, and
the rates alternated between 6 and I. In
connection with the money question,
there is q story afloat in regard to
Government per cent. currency bonds
which has some bearing on the pre-
sent situation. Some time since seve-
eral pools were formed among the bank
ers and brokers to bull these bonds, and
the subsequent sharp rise resulted in accu-
mulating from S5,00O,0OO to 500 ,000in
the hands OF a few parties here. These bonds
were sold chiefly by interior banks, and the
currency proceeds were RENTED therefor,
which will account in part for the loss in
legal-tender deposits by the New York
banks for two weeks past. ~ .s-@.r.<

found it deserted by all except the wounded

in streams from wound on the left side OF

that French threatened TO kill him, and en-

pated, and that finally French drew pistol
and fired, he throwing up his hand at the
