nor Hartranft fled in the Secretary
Office his vetos of no less than forty
two bills, passed by the late Legisla.

the Governor is making a most ex-
traordinary use Of the u mar
power" or that the people had Q
very sorry set Of representatives in
the last General Assembly. VIII the

bills in a session Of three and a bal.
months, bow many al two hundred

A RESOLUTION has unanimously
passed the House at Washington ap.
propriating $500 for the purchase and
restoration to the family Of the Mar
quis de Lafayette of a watch pre-
scented to him by George Washing
ton, and lost by Lafayette on a sub
sequent visit to this country. Dur
ing the tendency of the resolution
Mr.. Maynard, Of Tennessee, sent up
to be read a newspaper paragraph,
which he declared historically correct,
setting forth that the watch was pre-
sented by Washington to Lafayette
at the capitulation Of CORVALLIS, and
afterwards stolen from the latter on
his subsequent visit to this country
in 1925, at Nashville, Tennessee
Although large rewards were offered,
the watch was not heard of until
about four years ago, when it was
purchased by a gentleman Of Texas
at apawnbroker's sale at Louisville,
Kentucky.
NJ. Garfield said the House should
be certainast to the g~enuineness of the
watch, and was assured that experts
had said there was no question about
ii.
During the debate Mr.. Hooper ex-
hibited the watch, and was at once
surrounded by a crowd Of members
anxious TO sec andahandle the inter
esting relic.

THE SUMNER.

Summer is on US at last. The sun
is now hurting its rays direct upon
the city, heating the pavcments,
heating the buildings, heating human
ity, heating animality. A great city
is terribly hot when it is hot. The
tall buildings not only retain heat,
but they prevent the tree circulation
of air that would otherwise mitigate
it. Then the ten thousand distinct
odors that smell TO heaven make it
unhe althy as well as disagreeable.
Consequently all ofNew York that
can get out gets out. Away to the
mountains, to the seaside, to springs,
to every earthly place where fresh
air and trees are to be found New
Yorker and his wife and daughter
goes. The theaters, such as are kept
open, are half filed with people from
the country and the few des0late men
who cannot get away. Houses are
locked up, and inhabited only by the
one domestic left in charge. This is
Biddy's great time. For when " Mis-
sus goes to the " country Biddv
is left to take care of the house.
Don't her cousins have a good
time though! When Missus is at
home Biddy has got to give her par
ties in the kitchen, and she is liable
to constant interruption. But in tile
summer it is different. Missus is
three hundred miles away, and Biddy
is supreme in the house. No kitchen
for her now the parlors are not good
enough. Dinnis, Pathrick, Teddy
the divil, ard all the rest of. them,
with other Biddys, assemble in the
parlors in the evenings and enjoy.
high life in dead earnest. Refresh
ments are spread in the dining-room,
and such a timeis had as the Mis-
tress T" never dreamed Of 1t is we'll
Why shouldn't they have their in
nings? Possibly, many of these
houses never see so much of genuine
honesty and jollitg when its lawful
proPrieters are running it. And itl is
a question whether the masters and.
~missusses in the watering places en-
JOY themselves more than the Dinni-
ses and Biddys do in the vacant
houses. ff y.

The city is dull to a degree never
known before. There is no business,
positively none. There is no buying.
no selling, for the reason that the
farmer has no money to pay the eoun
try dealer; the country dealer has
no money to buy Of he iobbers, and
Ijobbers' goods consequently lie on
their shelves or remain hidden in
boxes. The hotels were never so
empty, and hotel proprietors never
looked so blue. Indeed it has come
to q point where a hotel clerk viii

no building, and the builders are out
of work. The consumption of every
thing that goes into the bowels(ex-
cept whiskey) is lessened, and the
coopers are idle. Men wear their
boots longer, and the shoemakers are
on their cars; in short, it is distress
and nothing but distress. 1t goes
even t. the beggars. One placid
looking, old blind beggar who has a
seat on Fulton St, told me yesterday
that the panic had ruined him. His
collections he said with a whine, had
dropped to SO per day, but be would't

fallen 30per cent, andhe had houses
