The supplemental Article TO the
Treaty.


Treaty.
LONDON, June 3.-In the House Of
Commons this afternoon, Mr.. Gladstone
made statement with reference to the
negotiation between the British and
American Governments, concerning the
proposed supplemental article to the
Treaty of Washington, He announced
that the supplemental treaty had been
submitted to the Crown Lawyers, who,
in rendering their opinion, have declared
that the wording of the article is suffi-
cient to preclude the presentation Of the
American claim for indirect damages to
the Geneva Conference. Mr.. Gladstone
also claimed that the present corres-
pondence between the two governments,
which has been somewhat protracted,
and had consequently given rise to con-
siderable speculation as to it's import
and ultimate result, had ne reference to
the subject Of the presentation OF indi.
rect claims by America. The difference
which occasioned a prolonga-
ton of official correspondence be-
tween the two governments reerred
entirely to the prospective action
of the supplemental article, which
might result from different construc-
tion OF these clauses by either govern
ment at future period. This, he
stated, was the sole object which the
government had in view in continuing
the negotiations, and he assured them
that the difference did not result from
any divergence of opinion as to the aim
and purpose Of both governments, but
that the efforts OF both were directed
towards precluding the possibility OF
any misunderstanding in relation to the
matter in the future. Mr.. Gladstone de-
c!ined to lay any amendments to the
supplemental article proposed by the
United States Senate before Parliament
for the present.
Death OF Charles Lever.
Charles Lever, the well known actor
and novelist, is dead.
The Empress Eugenie.
The Empress Eugene will shortly
leave Chiselhurst on vesit to Spain,
where she purposes remaining during
the summer aud fall months for the
benefit Of her health.

BROOKLYN.
Methodist General Conference.

BROOKLYN, June 3.-The session OF
the Methodist General Conference was
resumed at 9 o'clock this morning,
Bishop Peck presiding.
The committee of Arrangements, Dr.
HURT, Chairman, stated that they could
have the Academy Of Music for another
month if they desired.
DR.. Haven, Chairman OF the special
committee on Book Concern, called
up from the table the report regulating
the suspension and trial Of agents ana
editors. The report provided that any
agent or editor against whom charges
might be made might be suspended by
a two thirds vote Of the committee i;
that the Bishops should be notified, and
that they should select one of their
number to preside at the trial. Bishop
Jones then took the chair.
DR.. Haven moved the adoption OF his
report. DR.. Queal submitted q substl-
tute providing that committee OF three
from New York and three from CInc!n.
matt be appointed and have the power
to suspend. DR.. Curry thought COM
mittee Of three was too small number;
that the impeaching body should con-
sist of nine, and that a majority have
the power to suspend. DR.. Hitchcock
added an amendment but this, after
considerable discussion, together with
DR.. Curry's amendment was lost. DR..
Queals substitute was adopted.
The remainder Of the report OF the
special committee, relating to the ap-
pointment OF committees, was adopted.
The report of the committee on expen-
ses of delegates, showed that the sum
of $27,674.l4 had been received, and
S26, ,666.SS paid out. The balance In
the hands of the Treasurer was, on
motion, ordered to be paid over to the
Book Concern. 1t was resolved, as the
sense of the Conference, that no person
who had served on the Book Concern
should be on the committee for the
next four years.

MACK writes from Washington a sto-

the West who recently dropped into the
hall OF the House Of Representatives to

stood nesr him, and who modestly an
swpred his call, he said TO him, Jim

From the Richmond Enquirer.
The Democrats OF West virginia.

The Democratic party Of West Viz
ginia have adopted the wise and discreet
course Of leaving the selection Of a
Presidential candidate entirely 10 the
Baltimore Convention. That IS the
true policy for the South. II we DO
that they cannot blame us as they did
in '6S. when it was said the influence OF
the South at the New York Convention
was fatal to the nominations. They
cannot Say that we have gone from one
extreme 10 the other-trom Frank Blair
to Horace Greeley-and been equally
unfortunate in our choice.

JAMES MADfsoN.-TBy Parton in the At
lantic Monthly. But there was new mem5
ber in the House this year, Young man OF
TWENTY-FIVE, small Of stature, wasted 6y TOO
much study, not ip the least imposing In ap
nearapce, and too modest.as yet to utter one
word in debate, who was destined to be Jctfer-
SONS most efficient ally during all his career.
This was James Madison, to whom we all owe
so much more than we know, whose services
are so little remarked because they were so
great. lie never 'shone respIendent IN debate,
he never wrote or spoke anything that was
striking or brilliant; but few countries have ever
possessed so useful citizen as he. From l''n
to lSI7, look where you will in the pubic. at
fairs of the United States, you hnd TINS ftoc
man doing, or helping to do, or trying to got, q
chance to do, the thing that most Wantea uo,
ing. He was tho willing horse who IS allowed
10 draw the load. His heart was in the busl-
ness of serving his country. He was simply IN
tent on having the right thing donc, not to
shine in doing it. Among his virtues was his
JOYOUS love Of jest, which made him one OF
The most agreeable of comrades, and preserved
his health and spirits to his cighty-ftth year,
and lighted up his dying face with smiles. Il
is Measure to me to walk in Madison square,
becanse it bears,his name. OF all Jefferson 8
triumphs, none seems so exceptional as his being
able to give to q man 80 little brilliant ana 80
very useful the conspicuous place he held ID
the public life of the United States, They
met for the jfirsttine at this session otthe Leg
islature, and remained friends and political al,
lies for fifty years. -..t's !
CARE. .oFTuE TEETH.-Rousseau said that no
woman with fine teeth could be ugly. Any re-
male mouth with q good set OF teeth IS klssapie.
The too early loss Of the first teeth has an un-
favorable influence upon the beauty and dura
ton of the second. The youngest should aG, S
cordingly be made to take care OF them. Ar
that is necessary is to brush them several times
day with little ordinary soap or magnesla3 s
and water. After eating, the particles OF food
should be carefully removed from the teeth py'
means Of a tooth b,pick of quill or wood, but
never of metal Camphoratcd and acld toot9
powders are injurious, both to the enamel ana 20
the gums, and if employed, every particle TT q,
should he removed from the gums by carefully
rinsing. The habit which some ladies' nave OF
using bit of lemon, though it may whlten the
teeth and give q temporary hrmneSs and colGr sn
to the gums, is. fatal to the enamel, as are all
acids. No one, young or old, should turn tnelr
laws into nut-crackers and it is even dangerous
ior women. to bite off, as they often DO, = the
ends of the thread in sewing. 1t is not sa,e 70

TT IS NOT TRUE.

1t is not true, as the Duluth interest with
equal gravity and absurdity sets forth, that
the illegal cut through Minnesota Point is
benefit to the ST. Louis river entry. I'm
less, indeed, it be a benefit to have the en-
try rapidly fill up, as was the case last
spring, and freeze over early, as was the
case this winter.
Immediately on the opening of the cut,
the force of the ST. Louis current was SO
greatly lessened, that the silt of the spring
freshets accumulated rapidly in the entry,
and the inrolling waves of northeast Storms
deposited sand unchecked, until the small
est propeller could not enter our harbor-
something tn 1T had never occurred before /!
And the remarkably early and firm freezing
of the entry this winter was marvel to the
oldest citizens Of Superior. 'Benefit'' in
deed
