AND now Gen. Baker, Commissioner of
Pensions, replies to Mrs. Helen M. Barnard,
who petitioned the House to have him i'm
impeached, that the animus of the charges is
that the lady and her brother were discharg-
ed from the Pension Office because they drew
pay and did no work, Mrs. Barnard is a
newspaper correspondent and Gen. Baker
says she made no pretense of doing any work.
The Commissioner notes the case of another
newspaper person who for long time
drew pay without doing any work, being kept
in the position by ''infuencc." At length
Gen. Baker secured his discharge and this
correspondent has his charge cot onspiracy
against the Commissioner. The checklist
kind of bummsrs are those who prev upon
society under the guise of newspaper men or
women. They are usually impostors-th
of them who claim special privileges on ac
count of their assumed profession, But by
all means, Geu. Baker had better keep his
conspiracy mill running.

SIGNAL SERvlcE.-The monthly weather re-
view for February, issued by the Signal Service
Bureau, is of double the usual length, and
fully equals its predecessors in the value of its
congratulations. There are peculiar features
about several Of the storms of the month, and
two of them are characterized as violent nurri-
canes. The heavy snow storm of the morning
o. the 18th ult. seems to have been result Of
the unusual combination of two storm centres,
and a very rapid cooling at night OF the upper
atmospheric regions, causing the simultaneous
outbreak of the storm over a large area Of
country. The report introduces a new element
by giving the logs of vessels arriving that en-
countered storms. 1t is evident that if data of
this sort can be Systematically obtained the
may add much to our knowledge of the laws of
storms they would be especially of use if sup
plemented by teegraphic reports from Bermu-
das, ETC., by which the approach of cyclones
might often be known IN advance. In the mat
ter of cautionary signals the Office appears to
have erred on the side of caution, II of the 80
not appearing to have been verified, and % be-
ting TOO fdue Tor MUCH service.

DR.. Schenck's Standard Remedies !

The standard remedies for all diseases of the lungs
are SCHENCK's PULMONIC SYRUP. SCHENCK's SEA-
WEED Tonic, and SCHENCK's MANDRAKE PILLS,
and if taken before the lungs destroyed speedy
cure is effected.
To these three medicines DIR. j. H. Schenck of
Philadelphia, owes his unrivalled success in the
treatment of pulmonary diseases.
The Pulmonic Syrup ripens the morbid matter in
the lungs nature throws off by an easy expectora-
ton, for when the phlegm matter is ripe slight
cough will throw it off, the patient has rest and the
lungs begin to heal, WV
To enable the Pulmonic Syrup to do this Schenck's
Mandrake Pills and Schenck's Sea-weed Tonic must
be freely used to cleanse the stomach and liver
Schencks Mandrake Pills act on the liver removing

freely, and the liver is soon relieved ''-''
Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic is a gentle stimu1ort

The Washington Republican, district organ |
announces that General Butler has succeeded |
so fully in proving the usefulness of the San
born contracts, that probably the effort to
have them repealed will be withdrawn. As
the Republican has the habit OF seeing after
General Buffers somewhat distorted vision,
perhaps, its conclusions are untrustworthy.-
Hartford COurdnt
A Western exchange says that several
months since nearly every Odd Fellows
lodge in the United States received
circular from Cuyahoga Lodge of Cleve-
land, Ohio, bearing the portrait of Edwin
Syle who as "past grand' had been ex-
PEELED for collecting money for the family
of a deceased brother which he never turned
over. A resolution accompanying the por-
trait branded Syle as swindler and peJured
villain, and he was also advertised in the pa
pers. Syle al once begun suit against the
Lodge for ''hurt of character" estimating MS
damage at $50, 900. The jury gave him a YER
dict of $4,000. The Court ruled that the
truth or falsity of the charge made no differ
ence as the Lodge, unlike newspaper was
not in the business of publishing news and
the fact of the circular disclosing the motives
and the otfense must be Judged from that
standpoint. The court also held that the
members of the Lodge under the charter
granted by the State were personally liable.
The Hartford Courant in noticing the de-
plorable tendency of young men to go from the
farms to the cities, says that lit is posi-
bility of the farmers movement" that it will
cultivate a sentiment which shall make the
rising farmer not content merely but proud
| to be such, and that shall maintain and ele-
vate the standard of agricultural purity and
thrift of life. 1t would certainly be COM
nenaoble result,o
The Boston Advertiser in long editorial
shows that the s'publicans and sinners" Of
the New Testament times are the special
agents of the Simmons and Jayne stripe to-
day. 1t may be true but it is hard on the
''pubicans and sinners of the first party.
The New York Bulletin has been inter-
viewing Mr.. Fl. B. Clafin, the great dry
goods importer of that city, who says there
are two sides to the moiety question and
gives the opinion that if this system is abol-
ished and no other stringent plan adopted il
will be impossible for honest merchants te
compete with those who will enter goods at

Hon. Eugene Hale has intmated to any one

election to Congress is sheer fabrication

of Mr.. Dawes to the Senate, the New Yorl
Post comments on the fact that MR. Kelley
