MONEY ORDER BUsISFss.-Since
the first of last month three hundred
and forty three new money order
offices have been established and six
have been discontinued. OF the
thirtv-three or thirty thousand
post-offices in the United States,
there are about thirty-four hundred
carrying on money order business.
The security afforded for the trans
mission of small sums of money to
distant points by means of money
orders IS becoming more and more
APPRECIATED. and hence the rapid
extension of the business. What
with the convenience for sending
drafts or checks on banks and bank
ing houses for large sums of money
and getting postal orders for small
sums. there is no necessity whatever
for sending "money" by mail in
any other forms, and hence no
necessity for the loss of money in
that way.

HI was landscape gardner, re-
siding i'm the neigAborhood of Sing
Sing. She was Frenchwoman,
neat and attractive. He protfered
marriage in honorable fashion, and
she did not say him nay-on the
contrary. on certain day at her in
vitation a large number of her
friends were in attendance at d
church to witness a ceremony which
would make her Mrs. Landscape
Gardner. This was the twentieth of
August. That night he was in Jail,
having failed to procure bail IN the
sum of 50, 900 upon an action for
breach OF promise to marry, brought
by the disappointed bride. She
named damages of SIS, 900. He lin
gered in jail. Whether he thought
it better to fly to ills he knew not Of
than bear the ills he had, or eX-
perienced a renewal of his affection,
certain it is that the suit is With
drawn, and in lieu of the damages
she has him, which arrangement
will, probably, in the long run, be
as damaging as she could wish.

A GENEROUS New York gentleman
desired to present statute of Daniel
Webster to the park commissioners
of New York, coupling the gift with
no other condition than that it be
placed at the Mall. The commits
sIoners declined to make any pledge,
the president stating that everything
had been so laid out as to give
general harmonious effect to the ar
rangement of the statuary in the
park. In the position suggested by
Mr.. Burnham, the donor, the Web
ster statue "would dominate the
other statuary, now in position" At
this distance, says the Chicago Times,
the objection seems to be entirely at
variance with what appears to be
most desirable. In life the god-like
Webster dominated the others, and
in death we see no good reason why
his marble presentment should not
stand at the head Of the-M-all.

assist in forcing themselves by the
