Low Fares.

The German governmen. have aroused the
Ire Of the great steam ship companies, and in
anticipation of the enforcement Of Bismarck 5
new order to "increase the rates of fare TO emi-
grants leaving Germany for any foreign coun-
try" the Cunard Steamship Company has put
down Its fares for emierans TO or from Boston
and New York TO unprecedently low figures
The National Steamship Company has folowtd d
suit, and reduced its fares tri1e below those of
the Cunard line, being Sli from Liverpool
This cheap travel for distance of over three
thousand miles is certain to attract greatly in.
creased stream Of immigration from all parts Of
Europe 10 the United States The profits OF
the Atlantic steamships carrying emigrants may
be reduced by the foolish order of the govern
ment. but it is abvious that no political edict, in
the face Of these low fares, can stop the tide Of
humanity in this direction.

Attempt TO Compromise with Burg
lars.

A few weeks ago, noted at the time, the bank
at Waterford, New York, was broken into and
100000, chiefly in United States bonds, stolen
theretorm. All attemps to arrest suspected par
ties have faiied. The loss fell principally peo-
pie who had invested their ha1d earned savings in
the stolen bonds-mcn and women who were old
and had lived lives of industry and economy in
order that they might have something to support
them in their declining years About two week
ago letter was sent TO the officers of the bank
stating that a compromise could be effected with
the robbers, and the bonds restored. A committee
was chosen to arrange matters who tested the fact
that the repres sntation OF the attorney rel

value $500. Offer was made OF ID per cent Of the
value of those remaining, but the robbers agent
demanded s5 per cent. The negotiation was SO
far . failure, and has so renamed, although 2j per
cent has been offered. As the bonds are utterly
useless to the robbers and the owners alike 1t is
probable that arrangements will be made whereby
the williams will get the largest slice of the spoil,

The death of Horace Greeley affords the Ao'
min,stration editors an opportunity to gather VI
and throw into the teeth Of their opponents artl-
cles denuncatory of the political course OF Mr
Greeley previous to his Abandonment OF the Re-
publican party, which sound very strange when
compared with the lauditory articles now pubhsi.-
ed in reference TO the deceased journalist 1t would
be we'll to let those things sleep IN the grave OF
the departed. The action Of the Baltimore Con-
vention reversed the position OF most OF the DEM
ocratic journals toward the man on whom the
choice of that body fell. and to this may be attrb
uted the fact that Ex-Governor Hoiano Seymour,
OF New York, who few years ago was denounced
i'll the most severe language by the Tribune, was
lately one Of the chief supporters of Mr.. Greeley
and later still of the pail bearers at his funeral

We learn from the New York World
that two Of the most distinguished of the
English literdI ara to make their appear
ance In the American lecture arena next
season. Early In the fall James Anthony
Froude, the famous historian, will make
his first appearance before an American au-
dience in New York, and few weeks later
Edmund Yates, the sparkling novelist and
magazine editor, win make his first bow on
Boston rostrum. Both will make tour of
the States, the one with course of four or
five lectures on the relations between Ireland
and England, the other with a course Of
four lectures on modern authors-personaI
"reminiscences Of the princes Of the pen,"
Dickens, Thackeray, Jerrold and Tennyson,
and purely literary essay on various good
writers whose works are at discount: a
vivacious description Of English society,"
and sketch Of the more prominent mem
bers of the British Parliament. Apart from
the attractiveness Of the subjects, the pop
ulality Of Mr.. Yates as novelist, his bril-
liant style, commanding presence, and great
versatility cannot fail to make his visit to
this country In the character Of a lecturer a
great success
But the great piece de resistance of the
American Literary Bureau for the coming
season Is the famous religious and histori-
cal writer James Anthony Froude. Among
the original thinkers of the present day few
have attained greater eminence than he.
His whole life and training have peculiarly
fitted him for the task he Is about to under
take. The son of a noted ecclesiastic of
the English Church--the venerable r. II,
Froude, Archdeacon Of Totness-he was
educated in the orthodox schools of Yves =
minister and Oxford. While at Oxford
he obtained the Chancellor's prize for the
English essay on political economy, and his
literary ability has never since been allowed
to grow musty. Soon after taking deacon's
orders in 1874 Mr.. Froude wrote the olives
of the English Saints, shortly followed by-
"The Shadows Of the Clouds" By the
publication In 1849 Of "The Nemesis Of
Faith" Mr.. Froude's fame was secured.
That work was condemned by the authori-
ties Of the university, and led TO
considerable controversy. Becoming
= constant contributor TO Fro
Ser's Magazine and The Westminster
ReUie,0, his attention was specially turned
to the study Of national history, and in 1856
he began the publication Of his most i'm
portant work, "The History of England
from the Pail Of Cardinal Wolsey." Besides
the ten volumes of this great work com
pleted in 1866, hs has recently published
collection Of ''Short Studies on Great Sub
jects," and some smaller volumes. Such,
in brief, are the antecedents of the cole
brated observation-disclosures who, in the fifty
fourth year Of his age, is about TO cross the
Atlantic to expound, during the coming
lecture season, his views on the absorbing
question Of the relations Of England and
Ireland.

THERE are three German Republican
daily papers in Cincinnati, and they are all
opposed TO the reelection of Grant, and
favor the Cincinnati movement. Mr.. Ras.
ter, the editor Of the Illinois, Stats lei
tirng, recently resigned the ofics Of Collec-
tor Of Internal Revenue In Chicago. 1t
was supposed that he resigned because be
did not feel disposed to wear Grants col
lar. his paper has now proposed as its
candidate for Governor of Illinois, the Hon.
Gustavus K@rneF, Liberal Republican,
and one Of the signers of the cal for the
Cincinnati Convention. These are signif-
cant indications of the direction in which
the German vote of Ohio and Illinois
will be thrown at the Presidential election.

SAN Francisco boasts Of case of a
woman who lived fifteen days with bullet
in her brain. She was shot by her lover
for refusing to marry him. A post mortem
examination by DR.. Edwin Bentley, of the
United Ststes Army, showed that one shot
had taken effect in the left side Of the head;
and that the ball had passed entirely
through the posteCior portion of the left
lobe of the brain and lodged against the
inner surface Of the occipital bone. 1t is
considered most remarkable case by DR..
Bentley and The surgeons who assisted at
the examination, it being an almost un-
heard-ofthing for patient to linger hey ond
a few hours with such an injury to the
brain.
