Mr.. Storey, of the Chicago Times. LIE
S great improvement on his prede.
cessor. Next is Judge Cbristiancy, of
Michigan, successor of Zach. Chandler
II e has already ia ken front rank in
the Senate. 1t is perfectly safe to pre-
dict TOR him very high renown, very
great influence. In all essential mat
ters he is a better Republican than
Chandler knows how to be. Cameron
of Wisconsin, though less brilliant
orator than Carpenter, is a superior
man, and instead of being a heavy load
to the party, will add to its strength
and influence. Ramsey, Of Minnesota,
had gone into cahoots with Bill King.
He is good-natured old gentleman,
with little ability and less culture
Mcmillan, his successor, is almost in
finitely ahead of him in all respects.
Paddock, of Nebraska, is the ablest
man that State ever sent to the Senate
Senator Booth, of California, has not
attended Republican caucus, but it
will transpire, | make little doubt, that
he will in most matters act with that
party. He is man Of fine capacity.
But without further particulariza-
ton, may say that the result, as
shown by the new Sen ators in Con-
gress, is this: That most of the Demo
Gratis will do their party harm rather
than good, while the Republicans will
do much, very much, to correct abuses
which have crept into the organization
to restore its independence, to regain
the confidence of the people, to bring
about an era of good feeling among all
who are at heart Republicans, to retain
what is good and Danish what is bad,
and to enable the party to move on to
new victories in the practical questions
which for the present and future good
of the country need early examination
and settlement. - Correspondence Chi

Spelling-Matches.

The latest mania which has seized
upon Young America is that of SPELL
ing-matches. They have spread as
rapidly as the epizootic did. 1t is an
old custom which had fallen into dis
use, but has been revived with a rap
idity which is truly astonishing.
Commencing in New England only a
few weeks ago, they have quickly
spread to the West, the last place to
be attacked being Nebraska. The OBJ
ject of these matches is very excel
lent one, the proceeds and rewards
being given to the poor. They are
innocent in character, not liable to
lead people into temptation, and are
cheap and tranquilzing, They do
not excite the passions, keep people
out very late at nights, or distract their
attention from business. In these re-
spects they are much to be preferred
to church lotteries, religious raff1es,
Jarley waxworks, and other similar
modes of spreading the Gospel into
| heather lands Some of the facts
connected with these matches are very
peculiar. Although nearly all women
are accustomed to have bad spells at
times, they almost invariably come off
victorious in these matches, and put
down the tyrant man without any DIFF
fculty. Men of literary pretensions
have been hoored with s hacid, ;"
"fageolet, ballast" balance ""priv-
ilege," capillary" colossal" "correl-
ate, "appall," and even little mono
syllable words, hurled at them by the
gentler sex. At spelling match in
Indianapolis, the other day, Prof. W.
Q. Bell, editor Of the School Journal,
and formerly Superintendent of the
Educational Department of the city,
spelled allege" with 3D." and, up
on his retirement was made the recip-
lent of huge cabbage boquet. Other
persons In literary walks Of life were
spelled down with very simple words.
AS cheap form of HpopuIar educa-
ton, the spelling match is to be COM
meudcd. The condition of the pub
lie spell is simply fearful. We receive
daily scores of communications, whose
spelling is bad enough to make ones
hair stand on end. The fault does
seem to pertain to any particular class.
The poets, OF whom the Tribune has
about 1000 in training, perhaps spell
the worst, but as they are laboring
under fine frenzy," they take any
lingual liberty they please with i'm
punity, The ministers and parsons
are frequently frightful spoilers. We
obtain every week manuscript sermons
for publication which require the
whole force of the Office to unspell.
Politicians, story writers, merchants,
lawyers, clerks and correspondents of
both sexes, send their favors to US with
out blush at the enormities they per-
petrate in photography. For this
reason, We are glad to see that the
spelling match is abroad in the land
- chicago tribune.
True to the programme Nasqucz, the
brigand. so long the terror of Cali
fornia, Nevada, New Mexico and Mex
leo, was hanged by the neck until he
was dead on last Friday, the 10Th inst,
at San Jose. His lieutenant Chavez
has now an opportunity to carry out
his threatened bloody deeds of ven
geance; but it is not likely that he will
avail himself of it.

Robin.on'. "Bis Show

Never before, nor for years after
Monday, July 18th, will our read
ers have chance to see such
grand, imposing exhibition as will
be given on that day by Robinson's
Great Worlds Exposition. It's i'm
mense proportions this year, are
said to battle description, and it
bewilders an ordinary mind to con-
template the vast concern. Mr..
Robinson is, no doubt, the wealth.
est Snowman in the world,and that
he may not be e1celled by any one
in the profession; he has this sea-
son outstripped every former effort
by making numberless additions to
his Menagerie, Aquarium and Cir
Gus. The brilliant splendor of the
entire outfit is described as some
thing dazzling, and the press every.
where seem loud In their praises
of the gigantic enterprise, while
clergymen, church members, teach
ers and families have Endorsed it as
an exhibition of unprecedented
merit The street parade will repay
a days journey to witness it, and
we expect people to come to tfrom
miles around. Do not fail to see the
grand exhibition, and remember, it
will be here on the 10th, for one
day only.

Many persons have doubted the ex-
istence in this province of a man who
is 135 years of age. but there is moth
ing more certain, as is proved by the
particulars obtained by the census
collector. His name is Felix Rojas,
and he was born in 174O, and under
the Spaniards held the position of
sergeant-major in a line regiment.
When Carlos III. issued the celebra-
ted order to cxpcl the Jesuits, Rojas
took in charge two members of the
Order and carried them from Linares
TO Santiago. This venerable man re-
members with great clearness all the
events of those times. and to converse
with him about Chill is to listen to
the minute history Of nearly a century
and half He passes our printing
office nearly every day in a portable
chair, which is carried by two serv.
ants, and our readers can see him
whenever they please in his place at
the church hearing mass.-Tulca

FARMERS in this part of the State
are now in the midst of their wheat
harvest. Some fields will yield some
thing over half the ordinary crop; but
most of them will, in all probability,
fall far below that amount. Corn, on
good rolling ground, is excellent; bet
ter than it has been for a number of
years, but on fat, cold ground, the
water and weeds have ruined it. Mr..
J. j. Conley, OF Boston township. in
forms US that the crop Of berries. in
that section is unusually short, and
that there is no orchard fruit at all.
However, with plenty OF potatoes,
corn and pork, there will not be much
danger of the people starving for

The festival given by Americans
at the Crystal Palace, on the even
ing of the 5th instant, to celebrate
the ninety ninth anniversary of the
Declaration of Independence, was
ono of great magnifcence. The
marble hall and banqueting room
were beautifully decorated, and
were crowded with a brilliant as
scmblage of English and American
ladies and gentlemen, and thou.
sands of people visited the Palace
during the day and evening A con.
cert was given in the afternoon.
The selections performed were ap-
propriate to the day celebrated, and
were received with much applause.
Tho dinner followed. When the
cloth was removed, Minister Schenck
the Chairman, proposed the health
of the President of the United
States and the Queen OF England,
which were received with cheers.
Mr.. freeman II. Morse responded
to the toast, ''The Day we Cele-
brate" "Home, Sweet Home" was
sung. The toast, "Great Britain
and America; mother and daugh-
ter" was given. The Member Of
Parliament for Finsbury, spoke in
response, declaring that the desire
of all Englishmen now was to have
a warm friendship with America.
Mr.. Lewis Fairchild replied to
the toast, Concord at home and
abroad" and Colonel Forney to
"tbe success of the United States
centennial" The latter said the
American citizen was the outcome
of tho mill whereof many nations
formed the grist, yet in spite of
this various foreign admixture the
American was almost wholly influ-
enced by English habits, laws, and
literature. With toasts, speeches,
and music, the proceedings were
protracted until the signal was
given for the fireworks, when the
company broke up and went out
upon the terrace.

writes letter, which is published in

says he finds 1.-THE expression largely

incumbent.) and have reported to the
stmaster-Gcneral the improperly
and impolicy of change" Col. B.
further says, that Mr.. KS reputation
in the several offices of the depart
ment at Washington, is among the
very best. His books and accounts
are kept 10 an admirable manner, and
against no Office in the State comes
fewer complaints This endorse
ment of Col. B. is sufficient to guar
antee the retention of Mr.. K, as

The Way It was Done.

We listened the other evening to
two Of our enterprising and worthy
citizens discussing the merits and de-
merits of the heroes of the Great
Scandal" Each party was contend
ing with all the zeal in his power for
the superiority Of his favorite, until
both became somewhat tart and per-
sonal in their language. They we're
finally induced by the bystanders to
change the subject of conversation,
and bury the Ratchet SO far as person
alities were concerned. This they
did. The Ratchet being buried to
their satisfaction, they concluded to
plant a rose on its grave. In short
time thereafter, the two men were
seen arm in arm, marching southwark
on Marion street, in search of the
rose. They got it and planted it on
the hatchet's grave

There is a movement on foot to or
