ROYAL RECEPTION IN VENICE.

The correspondent of the London STAN
dard thus describes the reception of the
Emperor Of Austria at Venice by the King
of Italy
"PreclSely at quarter past eleven
o'clock the Emperor, attended by brill.
liant staff, arrived by special train at the
railway station. which was very tastefUlly
decorated with Italian and Austrian flags.
His Imperial Majesty was, on alighting,
received by the King of Italy, who was
accompanied by the Princess of the House
OF Savoy and a number of Ministers of
State. Their Majesties having warmly
embraced, the Emperor afterwards shak-
ing hands with the royal Princes, pro-
ceeded to the first-class waiting room, a
spacious apartment, which was fitted up
on the occasion as state saloon, the band
playing the Austrian national anthem Az
ter erhaving conversed for awhile the two SOW
ereigns, amid the most enthusiastic cheers,
entered the royal gondola-a beautiful
piece OF workmanship designed by Cav
aliere G.. A. Baffo, of the Royal Palace at
Vence.) The interior of this gondola is
fitted up with the most exquisite taste, the
two royal shell-shaped seats being covered
with dark blue satin ornamented with de-
signs OF silver. The whole is surmounted
by canopy bearing the crown and shield,
OF Savoy, while on either side is half
reclining figure OF naiad. The chamber
Is carpeted in white, while all that part
which in an ordinary gondola is of black
wood is here covered with Venice glass.
The gondoliers. who, standing, impelled
the gondola by pushing instead of pulling,
were dressed in white silk stockings and
pumps. breeches Of hlua and s;lvar u;tb
scarlet sashes. jackets of red. turned up
with blue velvet and silver trimming. and
low black caps bound with gold lace.
Around the royal gondola were ranged
the beautifully ornamented galleys of the
municipality, each being impelled by
eight oars and conveying the members of
the Municipal Council and the Council
General, whilst fifty court gondolas were
occupied by the Ministers and distin-
guished personages of both countries.
-Four military bands were placed at inter-
walls on the border of the canal-one at the
railway station another at the Rialto
Bridge; third at the Palace of the Fos-
carl. and the fourth at the Royal Palace.
Imagination can scarcely picture anything
finer than the effect of the royal process
sion passing along the course Of the canal
headed as it was by the gondola in which
were seated, in kindly converse, the mon
archs representing the past and present of
Italy; below, the sparkling waters dancing
in the sun above, the forest offiags float
ing with indolent grace upon the waves of
air the crowd everywhere occupying bal
cony, window, and housetop; no bells
ringing, but a singular sort of silence
reigning in a multitude SO vast"

There is no remedy known to medical science
which has proved itself more valuable in cases Of
Kidney Complaints than the Vegetine. 1t acts di-
rectly upon the secretions. cleanses and purifes

action
The following extraordinary cure of great suffer
ers, who had been given up by the best physicians
as hopeless cases, will speak for themselves, and
should challenge the most profoC nd attention OF the
medical faculty, as well as of those who are suffer

Diseases OF the Kidneys, Bladder, etc. are al

most distressing and dangerous diseases that can
affect the human system. Mos; diseases of the
Kidneys arise from impurities in the blood causing

THE STARK Co. DEMOCRAT supports
the Democratic ticket and denounces
the financial plank of its platform as an
unmitigated nuisance. e. NNngStO7OH Reg
tstey and Tribune.
The STARK Co. DEMOCRAT denounces
the party leaders whose policy has
brought the country to this pass, Such
fellows are the "unmitigated nuisance. ;"
What right had the party in power to
disturb values The Constitution Of the
United States gives to Congress no power
to initiate, nor, hence, to contract.
This is the Democratic position-the
constitutional position. Our political op-
ponents inflated the currency and thus
put millions into the pockets of their
moneyed friends, and have been con
tracing in the same direction. By all
this, honest labor and business have
suffered, and the collapse is upon us.
Hence we say, the sooner we get rid Of
such party in power, with such a public
policy, the better will it be for thepeople.
The policy of the party in power is "an
unmitigated nuisance" That's whatwe
"denounce. :"

INDIGNANT WORDS FROM A RE-
PUBLICAN PAPER.

The Allegheny (Pa.) Evening Mail
though Republican paper, has the
manhood to denounce and expose ras-
cality, and hence receives bitter anathe-
mas from party friends. In a late num-
Der the Mail thus attends to those "highly
respectable Republicans" who are ever
ready to believe anything emanating
from an Administration source, however
false or ridiculous. We give sharp ex-
tract from the MAIL
We learn that many amiable and high
ly respectable Republicans and people
are greatly distressed at the course Of
the Mail in exposing rascality in high
places, especially in the Interior and
War Departments. 1t is not the ras-
cality itself that seems to trouble them,
but the making it so widely known, reit-
Grating it from day to day, and never
letting up on the subject. They say that
we are injuring the Republican party,
and bringing the dignitaries of the land
into disrepute with the masses, and they
ask sorrowfully, what is the use of un-
covering the shame Of the men whom
the country has hitherto delighted to
honorI
The use Of it we answer is the same as
warning men of any impending danger
Unless the existing Of any dangers are
made known, nothing will be done to
guard againstt. So, unless the Mail or
some newspaper like it, took the pains to
inform the community Of the rottenness
and scoundrelism that threaten its life,
it would not be possible to oapply suita-
BILE remedy.

THE San Francisco Chronicle believes

sion that too much is attempted in the

chusetts, too, this conviction is fast gain

The editor of the Catholic Telegraph
lifts up his dropping head this week.
The Warden of the Ohio Penitentiary
expended S67 s. the other day in the
purchase of Catholic books for the Peni-
tentiary Library. The Commercial. Of
this city, asked whether this was done
under the provisions Of the Geghan law,
to which the mild-mannered editor Of
the Telegraph responds:
"No, it is done in direct violation Of
the Geghan law, and should not be al
lowed to go unpunished. But for years
bills contracted by the Warden Of the
Penitentiary to furnish books for the
Protestant chapel of the Penitentiary
have been paid. Since the Geghan bill
was passed this custom has continued.
1t should be stopped. More than this, a
Protestant chaplain, drawing his salary
from the State, in violation ofthe Geghan
law, is continued in office. We call for
his dismissal as a paid officer Of the
State. He is bound by law to give re-
ligious services free. The next Legisla-
ture should see that this back pay is re-
stored to the Treasury of the State. The
hired Protestant chaplain must seek fresh
fields and pastures new and readers Of
Protestant Bibles and hymn-books must
be fed no longer at the public crib.
Catholics and Protestants alike must
carry themselves all the expenses Of re-
ligious instruction and worship. The
Geghan law must be enforced to the let
ter. Religious equality must be strictly
observed, Gin. Enquirer.

PENNSYLVANIA TREASURY.-Messrs.
Reichard, Smith, Embick and Wise
who were appointed by the last Legisla-
ture of the Keystone State to investigate
the Treasury of that State, have made a
partial report to Governor Hartranft and
Auditor General Temple. They say the
Treasurer refused to recognize the COM
mittee, and denied they had any au-
thority to investigate, and would not per-
NIT their accountant to even look at the
books or papers p The committee have,
however, investigated wherever they
could, and hence make partial report
They show from the Treasurer's own re-
ports that the law has been constantly
violated for years, and money collected
from the people to liquidate the State
debt has not been used for that purpose,
but has been kept in various banks Of
the State-that for II years from Decem-
Der Ist, 1862, these sums averaged over
two millions They ask what has be-
come of the interest on these large
amounts-which, at S per cent, would
make 81 100000! No wonder corrup-
ton has prevailed in Pennsylvania.

OUT of some I, 100 convicts in the Ohio
Penitentiary, about 200 are Catholic in
their faith. The Warden recently in
purchasing books for the library which a
State law provides, bought a few Catholic
books, among them, we believe, one OF
more copies of the Douay Bible. In the
library were good supply of Protestant
books, bought by the money raised by
taxing the people of Ohio, Now, we
submit to all liberal minded people il
this was not right? Was this not some
what after the golden rule-doing as we
would be done by? Besides, Catholics
pay their taxes as we'll as others, and are
surely entitled to full consideration. Lei
all stand equal before the law, without
regard to color or previous condition Of
servitude, or religion"

GEO. F. PUGH has announced his de.
termination to vote the Republican ticket
this fall. He has all his life been most
prominent Democratic politician, and
has served Ohio in the United States
Senate. He can't go this imitation Cary
platform.-AliaNee RSView.
The Enquirer says: "Mr. Pugh set
in to break up the Democratic party
two years ago. Heleft the organization
then, and has not voted the ticket sin:e.
We are glad to hear that he has an ex-
cuse so valid as the money question for
turning tail upon the organization which
gave him all the honor he ever had or
ever will have" We fear Mr.. Pugh is
too thick with Tom Young on the whisky
question.
