Coming Home sgRIn.

Quite a number Of the Independent
papers are rallying under the Repub-
lican banner. In Ohio the Ottawa
county Reporter. hitherto an indie
pendent paper, hoisted the Republi.
can flag last week, and announced
that, "When compelled to choose be-
tween Governor Allen, the Bourbon
policy of tho late Ohio Legislature,
Catholic Church ACKNOWLEDGMENT, as
foreshadowed in the Geghan bill, and
Republican reform and old-time prin-
ciple, as embodied in General r. b.
Hayes, we can hesitate no longer"
The Akron. Ohio, argus, hitherto
an Independent journal, with a deci-
ded leaning 10 the Democratic party,
"Repudiates the Roman Catholic
Democratic alliance, and ome out
for Hayes and victory"
The Columbus Grove Vdene, Ohio,
also an Independent journal, has
placed the nams of General Hayes at
the head ofthe editorial column as its
candidate for Governor.
Thus are the ranks of the Repubii-
can party filling up, not only in Ohio,
but in other sections of the country.
The feeling of practical indifference,
so generally manifested last fall, has
changed TO enthusiasm, aud those
Republicans who then absented
themselves from the polls, or voted
the Democratic ticket, are. now earn
estiy at work with their party. We
state this with the assurance of gem
tlemen returned from Ohio, Penn
sylvanin and Maine, who speak from
personal knowledge. In Ohio, the
nominee for Governor is universally
popular, and he is conceded by both
parties to be the strongest candidate
for Republican Governor that could
have been nominated. A similar SEN
timent is expressed in reference to
the other Republican nominees. This
is a vital element in a campaign. 1t
is hoped other States will be equally
successful in the choice of their candi-
dates.

The worlds Iron and Coal Produ
ton.

The worlds annual production of
cast or pig iron, Is set down st 1885,
972 gross tons. In production, Great
Britain leads the world, its produe-
ton OF pig iron, in 1873, being $780,
4H tous. The United States, during
the same Year, produced $500, 0G2.
Germany comes next, with 1864, SOP
tons in 1872, and France, with 1885,
600 tons, in 1873.
The annual production OF coal
throughout the world, for 1873, was
90, 567 ,342. Great Britain heads the
list, with l27 ,Ol6, 7i7 tons ; the United
States stands second, with As, 413, 400
tons; Germany third, with ~, 1924, 400;
France fourth, with 16,5OO,OOO tons.
In 1872. Belgium produced 1858, 94s
tons; Austria, 1O,44S, 998. while the
great Empire ofRussia produced only
I.O07, s32 tons, a trife more than Nova
Scotia, which produced ,05l ,467. The
coal production of Germany has been
more than doubled since 1862.
In 1872 the production of iron rails
In the United States aggregated 1 ,OO0,-
900 net tons. In 1874 the production
fell off TO 10000 net tons. During
the latter year, the average price OF
best iron rails, at Philadelphia, was
$3.50. In 1872 the price was $s5.12.
Thesudden stoppage of railroad build
ing accounts for the difference in prise
and production.

Reduce Gas Bills.
Communication to Chicago Trlbunc.l

Communication to Chicago Tribunc.l
You can save one. tenth of your gas
bill by going each night or morning,
when you need no more light, and
turn it off at the meter; and the
greater the length of pipe in your
house, the larger in proportion will be
your saving; Tor no matter how per-
feet your fittings, there is always
leakage. Gas is always condensing,
and the waste from this alone is be-
yond calculation, and in certain quail
tiles and at certain seasons, is greater
than others, and here, too, the greater
length of the pipe the more waste. If
the gas is shut off before it gets into
the meter, there can be no registra-
tion. Have you never heard your
meter giving forth a cracking, snap
ping sound when you were using no
gas? 1t is recording the waste, leak
age and condensation. If those per-
sons who have complained that their
bills present great irregularities will
learn to read the meter, and when the
company's agent calls to take it,"
''take it' also themselves, and they
will find sometimes a very large-sized
African slowed away among the fig
ures rendered in the bill.

A New Grass.
[From the Savannah Advertiser.l

After General Sherman made his
march to the sea, all in the wide track
of waste and desolation that he made
with the tramp of his footmen and the
iron feet of his cavalry, there sprung
up new and unknown grass from the
soil, which the farmers called "Sher-
man clover" 1t would grow up in
the most unexpected places, and it is
said would root out Bermuda grass;
and as strange similarity, we now
hear that after the Franco Prussian
war of lS70-7l, in many districts of
France q new vegetation sprung up,
evidently the result of the invasion.
1t was believed that this vegetation
would be acclimatized, but very few
of the species introduced in this way
appear likely to continue to flourish.
In the Department of Loir and Loir-
et-Cher, of 1853 German species, at
least one-half have already disap-
peared and the surviving species ap-
pear to diminish in vigor each year.
Scarcely five or six species manifest
any tendency to become acclimated.
Can any of our naturalists account
for it?

Rumored Marriage Project OF the French
Prince Imperial.

Discussing the prospects of Imperi-
alism in France, the Paris correspond
ent of the London Times, who is not
in the habit of circulating idle ru-
mors, says: "rhere has been a talk
for some days, with marked persis-
tency, though in mysterious tone, of
project of alliance between the
Prince Imperial and a Danish Prin-
cess, sister of the Princess of Wales
and the Czarevna Dagmar. 1t is con-
fidentially affirmed that the Prince of
Wales and the Queen, his mother, are
very favorable for this scheme, that
the House of Denmark is inclined to
it, and that Russia alone shows some
hesitation, which, however,it is added,
will, there is every reason to believe,
shortly come to an end, SO that the
marriage will soon be arranged. 1t is
objected, indeed, that the Princess in
question is two and a half years older
than the Prince, who is only nineteen.
Those who talk of the match and be-
lieve, or wish to believe, or affect to
believe in it, reply by dwelling on the
eclat and advantages such an alliance
would offer to the Prince Imperial.
"It would be like a providential indi-
cation" said an enthusiast yesterday;
"the three Danish Princesses would
be married to the three heirs of the
greatest thrones in the world, consorts
of the King of England and the EN-
perore- Of tho Frenoi, and Rnasia We
should bring alliances ready-made;
and Germany, perhaps, in view oftbis
position, and in consideration of an
indemnity, would make the Princess
a wedding present of the two unfortu-
nate provinces whcih would be an
everlasting cause of hatred and an in
evitable pretext of war.

GIVE US BACK The TAILS.

II we, as Mr.. Darwin says,
From monkeys are descended,
Old Time, in changing things, hath not
As yet the matter mended.
Descendants of our ascestOrs
Have no such times as they,
Who had no rent of house or tax
OF government to pay.
No tailor bills came in-Dame
Nature clothing gave
And freaks of fortune did not make
OF the monkeyed-girl a slave.
So the older ways the happiest way;
The new condition fails;sf
And, Darwin, If you can, my boy
Just give us back theaits.
No hurying out of bed had they,
No boiling breakfast doWn;
No hasty walk to shop, insfear
OF some old boss frOwn.
The lady monkey sat not up
Till day the night did rout,
In waiting for the lodge to close
And let her husband out.
They had no votes, tits true, but they'd
No offices to keep;
And o'er defaulter,s cash account
They never had TO weep.
So the olden ways the happiest way;
The new condition fails;
And, Darwin, If you can, my boy
Just give us back the tails.
They had no fashions promenade,
Where beauty's feet could stray;
But then, the old boss-monkey Rad
No miller TO pay.
They had no wine, the monkeys young
Through night To keep a storming;
They saved thereby-(you know yourself)
A headache In the morning.
A peaceful race wert they, who ne'er
To wars appeal did fly;
They saved thereby occasion for
Joint Commission High.
n smarter race were they than that
Which hath from them descended
And Time, by changing things, hath not
As yet, the matter mended;
For the olden ways the happiest way;
The new condition fails;
so, Darwin, If you can, my boy,
Please give us back the tails.

Once in while human justice gets a
fiavoring of that manly indignation that
is like fresh breeze in a sultry zone.
A curious instance. says the New York
Tribune, comes from England. where, a
short time ago. a poor woman was tried
for the murder of her husband. The
man was miserable creature who had
lived on his wife's earnings and reward
ed her by the crnelest beatings. At last
the despairing woman. while being thus
tortured, threw a steel which entered his
brain and killed him. The jury could do
no less than find her guilty, but the
Judge refused to pass sentence upon her.
..All the real right in the CASE" said his
lordship to the prisoner. twas on your
side. all the real wrong on your hus-
bands, and Gsd forbid that l should
punish you. l will not allow it to be
said by Anybody that you are convict
ed felon, for a conviction is not complete
until a sentence is passed, and mean
opass no sentsl CO at all. !" Tho prison
er was then directed to enter into her
own recosnizances to come up for judg
ment if called upon; "and," said the
Judge In conclusion, nobody in the
world will ever call upon you-God for
bid they ever should"

Senator Hobart's bill appropriating
S25. 600 for the improvement and preser-
walton Of the Capitol grounds has passed
the Senate, and has been made the spe-
cial order for consideration by the As
sembly at IL N. next Saturday. We I'M
derstand the reasons for thus postponing
the consideration of this important meas
ure is to await the fate Of the bill
incorporating Carson City. as there
seems to be much opposition to its pass
age BY citizens of Carson. If it is really
the wish of the people not to incorpor-
ate, the Legislature. out of Difference to
their EXP ressed wishes. will not compel
them to do so: and at the same time. the
Legislature does not seem willing to
make this appropriation for the improve
ment of the Capitol grounds in the alb
sence of city government. Hence the
postponment of the bill.
Since the above was written the As
sembly has passed Mr.: Helms incorpo-
ration bill, with slight amendment as
will be seen by reference to our Legisla-
tive report. The bill now goes to the
Senate.

Whether the Episcopal Church is de-
creasing in the United States was an i'm
portant religious question discussed in
New York. before conference, by Rev.
Hugh n. Thompson, who prefaced his
remarks by the declaration that:
proposed to utter sentiments that
would. perhaps. be disputed by members
present. but they were his own indlvl-
dual conclusions. arrived at after careful
investigation. He declared that he did
not believe that the Protestant Episco-
pal Church for the past ten years had
made any progress in this country. He
meant by progress, Of course relative
progress, but he was willing to conceds
that she had made absolute progress. By
this declaration he wished to be under
stood that the church had not advanced
in this country with the increase in pop
ulation. If we examined the subject We
would find that the church had not only
not increased relatively, but had decrea-
