The CIRCUs AND MENAGEEys came into
town in royal fashion yesterday morning,
and there WAS not Il sane child of any
sex to be Seen for the next six hours. The
great tents were pitched down on the
Commons to the north of Captain
M-ders house; and i'll the afternoon
there wasn't much comfort in l'eing a
fond and indulgent parent. Every good
little boy and girl had to go and see the
wild animals and the spanSles, and they,
the children, were there, massed in regi-
ments-of infantry. The show is a
good one for business, being the first
circus with q menagerie attachment
that ever came through this way. The
elephant is dreadful little runt-all the
funnier, though. for being little: the
something or other, like /, cross between
bovine bull and II buck deer, from H.
dia-is beautiful animal: the lions are
fine, the zebra is Il splendid specimen Of
his genus. and the monkeys are full Of
amusing cussedness as all monkeys are.
The circus has many performers, and
the crowd last night (Which was ire
menduus one.) was greatly delighted.
The young ladies who do the trapeze
business are surprisingly good perform
ers; the tumblers are good. and the
clowns are fresh and funny. The ready
and unhesitating daring of the man who
en,ers the lions cage and wallops about
that brace of the king of beasts e1ci,es
our admiration past all the other per-
formers. His feat is performed with de-
termination and pluck and is altogether
thrilling and satisfactory,

A FUND TASTED IN FEES.

great grievance in some Courts and in
some classes of suits is the heavy cost of
suitors. Auditors, receivers, &C., ought of
course to he paid for their services, but when
small estate or a sum of money gets into
Court, good deal of it is generally eaten up
in fees and charges before its proper owner
gets possession In some cases this is UNI
avoidable but in others, as in recent New
York case, the process savors good deal of
extortion. share in the Glenham HOTEL in
that city, was sold to Mr.. Peters for $S415 "a.
judgement creditor of the seller, whose
judgement amounted to S2g54, attached the
proceeds, and the public might naturally sup
pose that, out of fund nearly three times the
amount of his judgement, the creditor would
have made the debt. But he did not, and
these were the reasons A receiver was APP
pointed, who held the fund about three months,
and out of it, .'by order of the Court, " he
made sundry disbursements. To himself, as
"recciyer and manager he paid $1,000; to
his Counsel for Peters, who bought the
share, $3.50, and to Peters attorney, 1925 ; to
another individual, who figures as attorney"
1928 more; and to yet another, who figures as
superintendent, $500; and finally he paid
to the Collector of Internal Revenue 1916.
All these sums disbursed aggregated 1884,
SO that when the disbursing process was done,
there remained $43l GA for the creditor, who
had originally attached a fund nearly twenty
times tlns amount, provided he could over
throw claim that another party put in for
"wages" somewhat in excess of this sum.
The Judgment creditor, thinking there is
something wrong, has had the matter brought
up in Court, to have it determined whether
any set of men, be they lawyers or anybody
paying fees.

VIEW YORK AND LONDON DA1LIEs.

A single copy of New York journal gives
more news than will be found in weeks file
of the London Times. At the time of the
English expedition to Abyssia, the London
papers were indebted to the courtesy of the
Herald correspondent for the latest and fullest
intelligence from the field and during the
Franco-German war the most interesting and
accurate accounts of the grand achievements
of the German armies published in the English
papers, were given in the dispatches to the
Tribune, but for which the English public
would have been compelled to await the ar
rival of letters by post for more than the
meagre Geographic announcement of victories
which involved the fate of an empire. The
English have scarcely begun to learn the use
of the telegraph for transmitting news. They
affect contempt for the American system
and plume themselves on the more solid and
scholarly character of their newspapers; but
while this view may have been once correct,
an impartial comparison of American and
English journals of the present day would
show that in addition to an amount of news
which would supply London newspapers for a
week, the leading articles, literary reviews,
and correspondence in every issue of one of
our first-class papers are as thoughtful and as
carefully considered as the articles which APP

oratory-not of the highest order, yet better
than most specimens of Celtic horidness with
which we have been favored. Our Irish

over his lectures and preachngs, from Boston
to New Orleans. They have poured out their
money like water for admission to his crowded
assemblies. 1t is said that his lectures have

LOCAL OPTIoN.--It is constantly asserted
by writers against Local Option that wherever
the law has been adopted it has been failure
and further, that it closes all houses for the
accommodation of travellers, to their great in
convenience. A writer who has had oppor-
tunities to observe the workings Of this law in
Potter county, Pa, does not coincide with
these statements. On the other hand, if his
statements are to be believed and he is said
to be a thoroughly reliable mani, the law
works admirably. We quote -
''This State OF Pennsylvania has some pc
culiariiies-among these may be noted the
custom Of passing special laws for particular
counties. This county has special Temper
ance Law. forbi(lding the licensing of any per-
son to sell spiiituous or ferinented liquors as
beverage. This law has been in operation
since 1866, but no person has been licensed to
sell since 1852, the Courts refusing to grant
license after that time till the law was put
upon the statute book in 1866 What is the
result? Have the people been iriitated to
drink more copiously for the restraint? just
the reverse. Coudcsport is the county town.
Here the Courts are held and the county build

S.fTyT PATRICK.


Saint Patrick was u great and good man,
and he did a good thing for Ireland when he
banished the snakes and the toads. The an
niyersary of his birthday will occur on next
Monday, when every man who loves the
'sGreen Isle y will be expected to do honor to
his memory, and when we may look for the
usual rain. 7
This country needs Saint Patrick--not ex-
actly to Danish the snakes and toads, but to
extirpate the reptiles who attempt to strike at
the good name of their fellows, ami to Danish
the toadies who bow and eringe and fawn on
wealth and rank and power. There are men
who delight in q tale of SANDER more than in
the choicest food, aud if the telling of it puts
their victims to the torture. the more devilisli
Is their delight. We will not attempt to por-
tray the various ways these slisny reptiles have
of using their fangs aud innictingi their sting
they will suggest themselves too often to-
our readers by personal experience. May
some Saint Patrick be the death Of such
snakes. i4
Then as to the "toady.' He feels himself
highly honored to be noticed by the wealthy,
ana he is all atlenLlOH anu pOuUcneSS W tIiefn,
while he is surly and boorish 10 the poor. He
perhaps diets his church come ction with
reference to the aristoerltic connections and
Is delighted if he is invited to eat ice cream
and cake at q nabob's house. Or, perhaps,
this toadyism manifests itself in Difference
to rank, and prince or a duke fairly turns
upside down what little brains such have, and
they make their country laughing stock by
their fawning on those who have titles of no
bility, oftentimes without the nobility itself.
Or, again, it may manifest itself in obsequious-
ness to power. 1t winks at the unrishteous-
ness of corporations, because it fears their
power, or wants their patronage or influence.
1t gives up all independence of thought and
becomes lackey. Such are few of the
many prevalent forms of toadyism. May some
good Saint Patrick .'come down" on such,
and Danish them from this land.
If ANY person will initiate the good Saints
work in this respect, we will go in for canon
izing him--even if we have to buy two of the
biggest from the Fort Pitt foundry.
