TRIAL IN PRodREss-FIEzzA APPARENTLY THE MUr-
DERER.
ROME, Nov. 2.
Tho trial is proceeding here of Giuseppe Luci-
ami, Michele Anneti, Linge Morelli, Cornelius
Farina, Pho Fiezza and Salvatose Scarpetti, ,charl
ed with being concerned in the murder of Raj
fuele Souzogus, editor and joint proprietor Of the
ultra Democratic journal, La Capitae. The as
sassination created great sensation at the time
and was by many attributed to the clerical party.
This excitement has by no means died out, M
may be seen in the fact that the post-oflice
questrates all foreign newspapers containing the
trial proceedings. The trial has apparently de-
veloped the fact that the murder WAS committed
by Fiezza, though the evidence il believed to be
insufficient to convict. Luciani alone at
one time thought to DO tho roal inatigator Of the

John Mitchell, the "Irish patriot"
who at one time was a resident of this
country, but now a resident of ireland,
was recently elected TO Parliament from
Tipperary; but unfortunately for John
and his supporters, he will not be per-
mitted to take his seat. The following
cable dispatch will explain the opposi-
tion to his entrance into Parliament:
LONDON, February 16.-In the House
of Commons to-day, w. Hart Dyke,
Conservative, moved for copies of the
certificate of the trial and conviction of
John Mitchell, in 1S48, of the official
notification of his escape, and the pro-
clamation offering a reward for his ap-
prehension; also for copies of dispatch
from the Governor of Van Dieman's
Land relative to the granting of a ticket
of leave to and the subsequent escape of
Mitchell. Mr.. Nolan regretted that
nearly all the Irish members had left
the House, believing that business was
over. He called attention. to the fact
that the Government did not arrest
Mitchell when he was in Ireland last
year.
Mr.. Disraeli gave notice that he would
move, next Thursday, resolution de-
claring that as John Mitchell has been
adjudged guilty of felony and sentenced
to transportation, as he has neither en-
dured the penalty nor received pardon,
he is incapable Of election to the House
of Commons, and that a fresh writ of
election be ordered for Tipperary Coun-
ty, Ireland.

National Grange.

+ CHARLESTON, S. c., February 15.-In
of the Committee on Relief was consid-
cred, and so much Of the report as dis
approved of granting, in the future,
charitable donations out of the funds of
the National Grange, was stricken out.
This action authorizes the proposed ap-
preparation for the relief of the Ne
braska and Kansas. Resolutions were
adopted for final adjournment to-mor-
row; also of thanks TO the citizens of
Charleston were unanimously adopted.
These resolutions declare that the Ma
tiona1 Grange halls with delight the
many expressions of kindly sentiment
met with in Charleston, and believing
them to be evidences of the mutual re-
turn of good feeling and harmony be-
tween the different sections of the coun-
try.
CHARLESTON, S. c., February 16.-
The National Grange last night adopted
resolution favoring the speedy compile
tion of the Washington Monument in
the city of Washington, and earnestly
recommended to each State and subor-
dinate Grange in the country to make
such subscription as they can, either by
a contribution from the funds of the
Grange or by voluntary offerings of
members through the Secretaries in ac-
cordance with the terms of the contin-
gent pledge adopted by the Society, and
the action be prompt on the part of each
Grange.
Also, a preamble and resolution de-
claring that the early completion of the
Spartanburg and AshevIlle Railroad, a
link in the Chicago and South Atlantic
Railroad, is demanded by the agricul-
tural interest Of the country, and the
route is recommended to the favorable
consideration of the Order.
A resolution was adopted declaring
that the National Grange indorses and
recommends the resolutions adopted by
the Atlanta Agricultural Congress,
hANh ANSCAutAOAS elHhS lHO
tion by the National Government of a
system of water ways, 80 that unrestrict-
ed channels of trade shall be opened not
only through the entire length OF the
Mississippi, but connecting that great
river with the Atlantic by way of the
lakes, by the Ohio, Kanawha and James,
and by the Tennessee and Savannah
Rivers.
A resolution was adopted directing
the executive committee to make ar
rangements for holding the next session
of the National Grange in Chicago.
Wherever the meeting will be held the
expense to the Grange can not exceed
the expense of the meeting at St. Louis
A separate Territorial Grange for Ne
braska and Idaho was authorized.
A committee was appointed topresent
the memorial to Congress on the subject
of the Texas and Pacific Railroad.
A resolution was adopted returning
thanks to the people of Charleston for
unvarying and continued kindness.
The Grange then adjourned.

posiis they received before mistrust
overlook the depositors- Money is hid
away in private places. The borrower
can not find what he wants at the banks,
and he cannot learn how to gather it
from a thousand resting places, little
here and little there like dust scatter
ed by the whirl winds.
THE RIGHT REMEDY,
for this state of thingsis not initiation of
currency, not the injection of more
blood into the sluggish veins, but II
consists in putting into motion the blood
already there-the currency now in ex-
istence. This is best and most effectual-
ly done BY the issue ofbonds bearing 3-65
per cent interest, by the government
and exchanging them for greenbacks, or
what is equivalent thereto, paying its
debts with them to all who may prefer
them to greenbacks. Let the banks ex-
change the bonds they now have on
deposit, for security of circulation, for
these 3-65 bonds and the difference be-
tween these and their own bonds found
by the quoted values in the market.
The banks can thus supply themselves
with both greenbacks and 3-65 bonds.
When deposits are made, after this Is
done, the depositor receives from the
banker a 3-65 bond in exchange for de-
posit of currency. The depositor is
thus secured and the banker attains de-
posit at low interest and finds his ac-
cumulation of deposits increasing in
proportion to the confidence of the de-
positor. OF course the deposit is made
for such periods of time as may be
agreed upon and when the depositor de-
sires to withdraw his deposits, he re-
turns to the banker the 3-65 per cent
bond, Withholding the interest or not, ac-
cording tn the agreement made at the time
Of deposit. This would fetch every dol
lar from its hiding place into active cir
culation and revive trade, commerce
and business. True the depositor gets
but low interest on his deposit, but he
is compensated for this by his absolute
security, and besides this, is it not far
better to draw even this 3-65 per cent
on his deposit than TO hide his money
out of sight and get nothing for it, as toe
many are now feeling themselves oblig-
ed TO do. TO be safe from some un foreseer
panic which may be brewing in the cir
cles of finance. The 3-65 bond is, there
fore, not only the remedy to induce
money into circulation, but TO insure
against panics; and supercede imitation

The Row In Brooklyn.


[From the New York Times 15th.]
AS the facts pertaining to the Beech
er-Tilton scandal are being gradually
developed by the efforts of the counsel
engaged in the case, the interest felt by
the public in the matter becomes strong
er and more pronounced. Especially IN
Brooklyn is this the case, where friend
ships of long duration have been broken
and marriage engagements sundered
owing to differences of opinion regard
ing the affair. Men having not the
slightest previous acquaintance with
each other, on hearing an opinion pub
licly expressed, either shake hands with
the warmth of old friends or quarrel
with the acerbity of enemies. If any
one questions the truth Of this state
ment he has only to visit large drink
ing saloon in Fulton street kept by Mr.
Slane. Behind the bar is hung a large
placard: "No discussion, about the
Beecher-TiIton trial is allowed in this
establishment" Two strangers began
arguing the merits of the case. One was
a pronounced advocate of Beecher, the
other firm believer in Tilton. The
discussion grew warm, and finally the
Beecher man, catching up large ice
pitcher standing on the bar, threw it at
the head of his opponent. His aim was
not as firm as his intention, and the mis-
sile, flying wide of its mark, demolished
pierglass worth over 500. The next
morning Mr.. Slane hung up the placard.
His example has been followed by ma
ny other saloon-keepers. The audience
in the Courtroom, for incongruity and
abnormal character, fully equals the
actors in the suit. 1t was we'll describ-
ed by Court Officer, who said: "There
are the rich men, who have nothing else
to do; there are the bummers, who new
er do anything, and there are the wo-
men, who can't tell what brings them
here" The same faces appear in the
same seats regularly every morning, and
men who at the beginning of the case
regarded their neighbors in the next
seats with suspicion, now recognize and
chat with them as with old friends.
