Three. Hundred and Thir ty-one Flashes
'-- '' in Seven Minutes.

The New York E1press says: A
most remarkable exhibition of at
mospheric electricity took place in
Arlington between 12 and o'clock.
Brilliant streams of the electric fluid
darted athwart the sky in every di-
rection, and the thunder which fol
lowed was constant for period of
thirteen minutes, without the inter
mission of an instant of silence.
One flash of lightning followed an
other in such rapid succession as to
excite curiosity to know how many
occurred in minute. With watch
in hand 1 counted them for seven
minutes. In the first there were 81
vivid flashes; second minute, AZ;
third, 30; fourth, AT; fifth, 81; sixth,
81; seventh, 53; making three hun
dred and thirty-one discharges Of
electricity in seven minutes dis
tinctly visible from one point;
and each discharge was followed by
loud and some times rattling reports,
whose reverberatlous rolled through
the heavens in an endless procession
Of majestic and terrific sounds.
During this scene the moon, which
was about half an hour above the
western horizon, was visible, but SO
magnified through the haze and va
por as to appear like brilliant flame
suspended in the sky. For a period
oftwenty minutes the scene was one
of grandeur and sublimity rarely
witnessed in lifetime.

SEATS OR NO FARES,
The Springfield Mass. Rep

The Springfield (Mass.) Republi-
can, of August u, says:
GA gentleman from the West,
who arrived in this city yesterday,
tells of an incident which happened
this week on New York Central
train, which may furnish hint to
travellers hereabouts. Among the
passengers who got on the train at
Utica, N. Y, were twenty-three men
who were unable to find seat.
Among them was a lawyer, who pro-
posed that the rest decline to give
up their tickets until they were fur
nished seats. The agreement was
made, and when the conductor came
around he found twenty-three gen
tlemanly but very obstinate men,
who refused to give him either tick
cts or money unless he would show
them a place to sit. The conduc-
tor replied that there were plenty of
vacant seats in the next car; but on
inquiry it was ascertained that this
was drawing-room car, for which
extra charge was made. So the
twenty-three declined to bulge, and
matters remained in this unsettled
condition until the cars had gone a
long distance. The conductor f.
nally induced two dozen persons
who had seats to go into the draw
ing-room car, without extra charge,
and then made place for the OBJ
stinate twenty-three, who then gave
up their tickets as they had said they
would do. Undoubtedly they had
the right of it, as the courts have
repeatedly decided that passenger
is justified in refusing payment of
fare until the railroad company has
given him proper accommodations" !"

POSTAL CARDS.

The Attorney General has given
a written opinion to the Postmaster
General deciding that the Postoffice
cannot make q contract
for the manufacture of postal cards,
proposals for which were expected
to be invited about this time, until
Congress makes a specific appro-
priation to pay for them. By the
postal code bill the Postmaster Gen
eral was authorized and directed to
prepare and furnish postal cards,
but when this bill passed the postal
appropriation had already been act
ed upon, and contained no provision
for said purpose. The department,
however, under dictation of the
postal card law, prepared specifica
tions, &c, for postal cards, believ
ing they could be paid for out OF
some general appropriation, but on
the matter being submitted to the
Attorney General it is discovered
that this cannot be done, and con-
sequently the establishment of the
system must await specific appropri-
alton by Congress at its next ses-
sion.

A NEW VERSION.

Theodore Tilton claims to have
been the first man who discovered
in g the Sage OF Chappaqua" just
the man needed to defeat General
Grant. Theodore is an erratic ge-
MUS, one of those social and polit-
ical skyrockets that are brilliant for
a moment, but of less real value
than tallow-dip for practical pur-
poses. There was a time when
Tilton and Greeley viewed public
questions from opposite points,
Tilton felt sore because Greeley
was using the columns of the Irib-
une to urge doctrines that he op-
posed. He brought the matter be-
fore the stockholders of the Trib-
une. He argued, he advised, he
did all that Theodore could do, to
have a stop put to the intellectual
eccentricities of Horace. Finally
he threatened. He told the meet.
ing that if the philosopher persist
ed in his course he would write his
epitaph, and it should read thus
HERE LIES HORACE GREELEY, FoUN-
DER OF THE NEW YORK TRIBUNE,
FIRST IN PEACE LAST IN WAR ;
LEAST IN THE HEARTS OF HIS COUN-
TRYMEN." .,h.
Tilton may have forgotten this
but he will have an opportunity to
remember it in October next. The
Inscription is a good one, describes
Horace exactly, and could not be
improved upon for his politica
tombstone.

INTERNAL REVENUE POLICY.

Since 1866 the aggregate reduc-
tion of internal revenue taxation
has amounted to $22S,O0O,0O0. In
1866 we collected $31l,O0O,0OO. If
the articles now taxable yielded the
same proportion of revenue as in
1856, our receipts to day would be
but $50, ,0O0, 900 per annum. But as
the revenue is collected more hon
estly now than then, the close Of
the present fiscal year shows the
collection of $131, 100000. A GER
tain percentage of this difference
may be justly chargeable to the ma
tural growth of business, but the
larger portion is directly due to the
more honest and economical collec-
ton of the revenue. The people
can depend on a party that has CIV
en- such strong proof Of fidelity to
the nations interests. Its facts are
its strongest arguments. 1t saved
the nations life; it built up its
credit it brought order out of con-
fusion /; it advanced the laborer it
opens new fields for capital and en-
terprise ; it made all men free it
furnished means for popular educa
tion it has preserved peaceful rela-
tions with all nations it is daily
removing the burdens which follow
ed the war. What grander record
could be given ? What better prom
Use of future prosperity could be
offered ? H -4a ..is --

JAPAN TEA.

The first Japan tea of any conse-
quence received in this country was
during the years 1S59-6O, when
365, 5,306 pounds were imported.
From that small beginning our inn
ports have gone on increasing each
succeeding year. In 1901 the
shipments from Japan reached 49,
449,156 pounds, or about 27 per cent.
of all the tea imported from all Sec
tians in that year.-In 1871 and this
year the quantity has already reach
ed IL ,4S2, ,173 pounds. 1t will thus
be observed that although Japan tea
met with but little favor thirteen
years ago, it has gradually gained
such popularity that it now stands
on an almost equal footing with the
Chinese article. The opening of
new ports in Japan has given a re-
markable impetus to the tea trade,
and the production promises to be
largely increased and the quality
improved.

only WAITING.

The Greeleyites are remarkably
quiet Just now, and have been for
some days past. They are watching
and waiting, anxious to know what
the result of the Louisville Conven-
ton, which meets next Tuesday,
will be. They see that its proper
tions and magnitude are much
greater than they had any idea it
would he. The query is, what will
it do? Will it take up man? If
it does nominate a candidate, will
such candidate get any support?
The conclusion that most of them
have come to is, that if good
straight out Democrat is put in the
field, that thousands throughout
every State will flock to him, and
the Greeley force be so greatly
weakened that there cannot possibly
be a chance of his election. There
are thousands who will not vote at
all if there is not third candidate
in the field, and there are thousands
OF others who would vote for Gree
ley as it is, that would rather cast
their votes flr their own candidate
But there are many others who are
hungry for office, whose pockets have
become very itchy for the spoils o.
government, that will do anything
to get their fingers in Uncle Sans
pockets. There are many such mer
everywhere. Their name is legion
There are some in Holmes county

GOING FOR GRANT.

The Pittsburgh Commercial says
within ten days we have heard Of
considerable number of representa-
tive Democrats declaring their in
tention to vote for Grant, on the
ground that Greeley's election
would be an :rreparable
disaster to the country. There is
every reason to believe that the
number of democrats who take this
view of duty, and have determined
to support Grant, is very great and
rapidly increasing. AS the cam
paign progresses and the time for
voting approaches, rejecting men
consider their duty seriously, and
Greeley is necessarily the loser.
Whoever goes among the people
will at once discover that this Is the
most conspicuous sign of the times,
at the present moment. As Greeley
relies on Pennsylvania to elect him,
and on Buckalew to carry Pennsyl-
vania, it follows of course that no
anti Greeley man can vote for Buck
aleW. .rfH.t --.

LOSING FAITH.

The Greeleyites are losing faith
and by all manner of shifts trying
to keep their courage up. For in
stance, one newspaper advocate says
it won't do to pin faith to the Sep
tember and October elections-for,
although they may go against Gree
ley, his personal popularity" will
carry him through in November.
~sHe is stronger than his supporters,
and is going to run ahead of his
ticket" is the talk the desponents
undertake to comfort themselves.
They might as well give it up at
once, though few will be disposed
to quarrel with them for doing it
gradually.

The Temperance party of prohi

mined not to nominate an Electora
ticket this year, as they have done
every year since the close of the
war. This is significant, since the
vote which they have always pollet
drew from LOO to ], 800 votes from
the Republican party. This vot'
will be cast for Grant and Wilson
in November, and will make Con
