THE CRUEL WINTER.

Fourteen or Fifteen Thousand NH
Operatives I'm DIstress-DepIOrabI
Condition OF Things az Fail River,
Mass.
The Boston Daily Advertiser has a spe-
cial dispatch from Fall River, saying that a
very serious condition Of things exists
there. The great majority Of 1900 or
1900 mill operatives are actually unable
to earn but barely enough to keep them
selves from freezing and starving, while
many heads Of families see nothing imme-
diately before them but misery and want
and debt. The reduction Of wages, which
averages about IL per cent, and this, too, in
addition to the reduction Of 10 per cent. at
the time Of the panic, went into effect on
the LIST Of January. Under il the wages Of
the Weayers, men and women, range from
s. to $3.50 per week; Of the spinners, who
are all able-bOdied men, most Of them with
families, from - TO Sl1; Of the card-gind-
ers, men, SS.25; Of the picker-rOOm, men,
$40; Of the shippers, 81; Of the fine-speed-
ers, from $40 to S6.36.
The operatives are driven almost to mad
ness at the prospect, and have, for the past
few weeks, been on the eve Of a general
strike. In fact, there have been TumOrs Of
riot, and terrible things have threatened,
when, in crowded meetings, such a senti-
ment as this has been fercely applauded:
ave have taken our guns and fought for
our country. and we can and will, if neces-
sary, take our guns and fight for our fami-
lies"

JEAIOTsY Ann REVENGE.

A singular story Of jealousy and revenge
comes to us from Sicily. A beautiful
young girl named FlOrina, who was the
belle OF 4 travelling circus, in which she
figured as the lion tanner, had been for some
time receiving the attentions Of an athlete
belonging 10 the same troupe. BY some
means she ascertained that he was not faith
ful to her, but had another lady love. No
signs, however, Of her painful discovery were
allowed to escape. She still smiled sweet
" upon him, but responded cOldly 70 his
ardent caresses. In her own bosom she
planned a terrible revenge. One evening
recently when the performance had been
unusually brilliant-after FlOrina had
whipped the lions and forced them to lie at
her feet, she called her recreant lover aside
and said to him: "DO you still love me?'
always, he answered. "DOy you know that
l should die ify6lCs hOUldIdev yourself 10
another woman" "What an idea,7 re-
sponded the young man. "But L should
first kill YOU" said FlOrina. "Aud how
would YOU 10 that9n Thus cried the
girl, at the same instant pushing him viO-
lently into the cage Of the lions. They at
tackled the unfortunate man al once and tore
him 10 pieces. while FlOrina urged them on
with blows Of Ter whip.

CROW. CHAPMaN. CEORI

The rooster, as a political emblem, had
its origin in the memorable Presidential
canvass Of 1910, between Harrison and
Tyler, the Wing candidates for President
and Vice. President, and Van Buren, and
johnson, the Democratic nominees for
these offices. In the summer Of that
year a special election for some purpose
was held in one Of the Indiana counties,
which resulted in Van Buren, victory.
A Democrat, not acquainted with Mr..
Chapman, the then editor Of the Indian
aDOlis Sentinel, a Van Buren, State organ,
wrote letter 20 a friend in indianapolis,
in which he advised him 20 state the re-
suit, and he added these words: "Tell
Chapman TO crow Chapman did crow,
and as a significant illustration be brought
out picture Of a chantieleer. The Dem
Ocrats had few opportunities Of growing
afterward in that year, but subsequently
the rooster was adopted as the emblem Of
Democratic success, and rs such has ever
since remained.

THE Railroad Gazette publishes a
detailed statement showing the length
Of railroads constructed during the past
year, which is Of special interest as in
dicating the extent Of the reaction in
railroad building consequent upon the
panic. During the seven years begin
ming with 1867 and ending with 1873,
81, 35l miles of road were constructed,
averaging 4,908 miles a year. The con-
struction in the earlier of these years
was found to be highly profitable to
the promoters, and the creation Of rail,
road enterprises became a mania,
construction increasing each year until,
IN 1871, 1922 miles were built, and,
n 1872, 1910 miles. The speculation
reached It's climax In the latter year:
and the difficulty of procuring sub
scriptions of capital compelled a con-
traction of these operations during the
following year. The market, however,
had become so surfeited with the new
securities, and many of the new COM
panies we're so embarrassed from the
difficulty Of obtaining the necessary
loans, that in September Of 1873 the
speculation broke down Of its own
weight, and originated a panic, the
effects Of which run and have since
continued through every department
of business. From these causes, the
construction IN 1873 was only about
one-half the extent Of that of each Of
the two preceding years; and last year
tue new roads built was only one-half
that Of 1873, or ], 1923 miles.

WHAT NEW ENGLAND THINKS OF
THE LOUISIANA BUSINESS.

All Of the Republican organs IN Boston
are united now in favor Of Mr.. Dawes for
the SenstOrship, and his prospects for the
caucus nomination are therefore a good
deal improved. A Boston correspondent OF
the Springfield Republican thinks Mr..
Dawes has a better prospect now than
Judge Hoar, and adds: eff Mr. Dawes is
defeated, it is given out that his friends
will run him for Governor next year. But
if Gov. Castor succeeds tolerably well, and
the Administration keeps up its dragOoning
process at the South, it will be hard for
Mr.. Dawes or any Republican to prevent
GastOn's reelection. The magic Of the
party name is broken in Massachusetts. and
if Grant goes on in the course he is now
steering, he will get, next fall, a still more
pointed rebuff from Massachusetts. The
heart Of the American people, North and
South, responds 20 the protests Of ShUrZ and
Thurman against the Louisiana outrage.
The New Hampshire Democrats are a
thousand votes stronger this week than
they were last, on Sheridan's account; and
so arr those Of Connecticut"

PInchbaek Reelected United States
senatOr-DeTeat Of the CustOm.hOuse
Ring.
NEW ORLEANS, Jan. 12.-The kellogg
Legislature cOncurred in the resolution
adopted to go Immediately into the re-elec-
ton of Lieut.. Gov. Pinchback as United
States Senator, in order to silence all doubt
and questioning as to his title to a seat in
that body. So sudden was the movement
made that Pinchback's opponents were APP
parently struck dumb, no efforts being
made to check the programme. Pinchback
was placed in nomination and received the
following votes: Senate Is to ,; House, IS
to Z. There will be a joint session tO-mOr-
row for an official cahvass.
The reelection Of Pinchback brushes the
hopes Of several aspirants. The Custom
house wing is said TO be especially disap-
pointed az the turn affairs have taken, and
the belief now is that they will favor re-
construction or a new election.

We declare our unalterable opposition to
the election Of any man to the Presidency
of the United States for a third term.
We earnestly desire the same peace, pro-
lection and prosperity for the people Of the
South that we ourselves enjoy, and we con-
denim all rapacity and mal-administratiOn
on the part Of any Republican official,
whether white or black, and all lawlessness
and intimidation on the part Of white
leagues or white employers. "Let us have

peace and a republican form of government

StOckvell, and his portion Of stock specu-
lations with Henry CleWs.
Dom Piatt claims that Il e money was
loaned him BY Irwin, and has since been
repaid. Irwin makes the same statement
II is certain that Piatt, in his newspaper,
opposed the subsidy bill with much earnest
ness. He proposes to present to the COM
mittee his cancelled note for the debt.
The Alert list was a very entertaining
chapter inslObby history. Mir. S. r. Ingra-
ham, to whom $1,000 was paid, is engaged
IN the newspaper publishing business in
Chicago, and at that time resided at Des
Moines, Iowa.
Col. j. G. Berrill is piOus leader Of the
Jacksonian Democracy, and a candidate
for the Clerkship of the next House. He
is also pillar in the church. Sam. Ward,
the courteous diplomatic lobbyist, whose
dinners Cabinet Ministers frequently at
tend, has never been caught until now, and
that for half Of seven thousand dollars.
o. j. Averill, who received nine thou
sand dollars, is cousin Of Gen. Averill,
Representative from Wisconsin. He acted
as lobby detective. he once had some
connection with the Northern Pacific Rail-
road. He offers 10 show by his bank &C
count that he kept all the money.
J. II. Herrey, dOOr-keeper, was appointed
from Wisconsin, and he has been here
since 1861, is poor man with large fam
lily, yet he received $1,000 from Irwin
without knowing why he received it, or
what became of it. The impression is that
some Of the money went through the doors
into the House. The committee will, to-
morrow, insist that he prove what dispOsi-
ton he made of the money. His chief ser
vice consisted in permitting lobbyists 10
have access to the floor, and in acting as a
spur upon Congressman.
The investigated uncovered another
grave. Morris, editor of the Chronicle, to
whose columns Irwin had constant access,
is now dead. FAINT is a bankrupt banker
and stock operator. Shenel is a New York
contractor. Moran is little known here.
COrmack is an old lobbyist. A. G.. Cor
wine is young lawyer, formerly Of Gin
cinnati.
Party Feeling Running High.
Special to the Cincinnati Enquirer.
The committee which which was sent to
Alabama to investigate into the reported
Outrages in that State returned this even
ing. The Republican members are very
ton of affairs there, and will so report to
the House. In this whole Southern ques-
ton party feeling is running very high, and
to save the party, as it is called, it is prOba-
bic that under the whip of the caucus the
most extreme measures will be adopted.
A Threatened DeIuge.
The President has finished bis portion Of
the message, which will be sent in Wednes-
day. It will be about two columns in
length, and will, it is said, recite TIE pre-
viOus action of the Administration upon
the subject, and place the whole blame and
responsibility for the present disastrous
condition Of Affairs in Louisiana upon Con-
gress. The documents accompanying the
message will be full and exhaustive, con-

tended have taken place during the last

WHY GAS Is CHEAPIN PHILADEL-
DEWA
Philadelphia Inquirer.

AAAla4lAlLAAa AAll
The citizens Of Philadelphia are supplied
with Gas in their dwellings al the rate Of
$3.50 for every 1000 cubic feet consumed,
and the cost Of meter and seTviCe-pipe is
betrayed by the city. New Workers pay
$50; Brooklyn charges 8; Boston, $780,
Baltimore, S2.75; Washington, SIG; Chi
cagu, $; New Orleans, 3; Savannah, s.,
and smaller cities still higher rates. The
cheap rate maintained in Philadelphia has
helped materially in the extension Of our
built up territory. and contributed essenti-
ally to our reputation as a 'city Of homes"
IL may not be generally known, yet il is
nevertheless the fact, that our city contains
a greater area of paved streets than any
other city in the world; and when it is con
coded, as it must be, that gas has long
since ceased 20 be a luxury, and has become
a necessity even to the humblest of our
people, requiring an enormous outlay for gas
mains and distributing and service pipes,
and to erect depOts for the manufacture and
storing Of gas 20 meet the demands Of this
rapidly increasing area, our readers nat
urally inquire how can all this be done
without putting the price Of gas up to, and
not above, that Of other large cities Of the
Union. The answer is very simple:
National, State, and municipal bonds have
always been favOrite investments with our
people, and the fact has enabled those gov
ernments TO borrow money Al six per cent.
while private corporations (gas companies
included) are compelled to pay as high as
ten and twelve. By a wise policy inaugural
ed in Philadelphia as early as 1896, the city
Of Philadelphia, from time TO time, extends
her gas arteries to The doors Of every new
row Of houses erected IN the suburbs, By
means Of money borrowed from her citi-
zens al six per cent, and she pays the
principal and interest of these loans out Of
the profits arising from the sale Of gas con-
sumed in these new neighbOrhOOds, at two
dollars and thirty cents per thousand feet.
Never has a dollar Of this debt been r.
imbursed ont Of the pocket Of the tax-pay-
er, and never will it be; whereas, a change
in the policy would involve either an in
crease in the tax rate or rise in the price
Of gas to obtain the money necessary to
keep pace with the growing demand.

DURING the year 1874 more than $4,000
Storage passengers left this country for
Europe. Many Of them, no doubt, took
advantage Of exceptionally low fares to
visit their old homes, and have already re-
turned, or viii do so. More, however are be-
lieved to have been driven away permanent
Is by the hard times. The New York Com
missioner Of Emigration believes that about
A, 900 or twO-thiris Of the whole number,
intend 70 be permanent absentees. The
revival Of business will bring many Of them
back, and tens Of thousands CT new corners
with them.
