under that impression, and not stopping

that bill and defeated it. The mipera

all. We never made any calculations on
Connecticut going Republican after the

Unsettled Condition of Europe.

Europe is not in a condition which
promises a lasting peace. In Russia
there is widespread discomfort and IN
certainty. The social results of the
emancipation OF the serfs cannot yet be
predicted, and socialism is spreading
rapidly among the working classes, and
the army, which is undergoing reorgan-
ization, is not yet in an effective condi-
ton. In Germany the feeling that the
empire rests on Bismarck's shoulders
renders the public mind uneasy rs to
the consequences which will follow his
death. Austria is trying the experiment
of dual government, and the success of
the experiment is predetermined. Den
mark breads an attack from Germany,
and is troubled with a struggle between
the peasantry and the landholders. Tur-
key is nearly bankrupt. France is with
out q permanent government and bur-
dened by the cost of a destructive war.
Anarchy rules Spain, and Belgium is
torn with religious strife. Only in Italy
and England is there promise of peace
and prosperity. This almost universal
discomfort and uneasiness, coupled with
the efforts of all nations to bring their
armies up to the highest point of eff
ficiency, foreshadows the near approach
of war, and the very recognition of the
fact that war may break out any day rem
ders the confidence which is the neces-
sary condition of prosperity all the more
impOssible.-NeW York Graphic.

Receipts. II Sht


During the past week the grain markets at
tracted considerably more attention from
spectators than for months past, and at times
considerable excitement prevailed. The bull
element seemed to have the entire control of
the trade, and they used their influence SO well
that a general advance in values was estab-
lished on all options, and a more marked ad-
vance for immediate delivery. The short in
terest were alarmed at the evident frmness
of the market, and were anxious to
provide for their outstanding contracts.
The surrounding influences were generally of
a favorable tenor, and such as would naturally
favor an advance. New York and Liverpool
were higher. and the receipts were light, the
table published above showing a general excess
of shipments for the week, as compared with
the shipments, save on oats. There was an in
creased number of speculative orders received
from other markets and from the interior. The
opening of navigation is rapidly drawing near,
and SOME activity is shown in shipping circles,
there being a fair demand for grain for ship
ment, with several charters already reported.
At times a weaker feeling prevailed, shorts
withdrawing after buying. The general market,
however, was very firm. and closed steady at
quotations.
The following table shows the prices current
at the opening and close of the past week:

right to allow the mother of his children To
wear her life out toiling with her needle to

machine upon terms which enable him to pay
for it in small monthly installments, that he
can spare out of his wages without feeling the

of doing every variety of family work in the

Spoilers from the new edition
OF the unabridged pictorial;
From the pages of old Wooster"
From the modern high school speller,
From all books that deal in Language,
From all technical conclusions,
To all absolute Commissions?
Have you heard them spell together?
Spell in ranks like fighting soldiers,
Doctors side by side with preachers,
Pupils side by side with teachers?
Have you seen the mighty umpire,
With his open dictionaries,
With his glasses on his optics,
And his ears erect for errors7
Have you seen the brave ones falling,
By the fault of the miscalling,
Heard them call the word {. insition"
As they would pronounce "abcision 2,
Have you seen the ranks of heroes,
Not to call them noble martyrs,
Standing up and spelling "fuchsia,"
And "Ipecacuanha,n
And "cerebro meningitis
"Assafoetida ~ and "sylphid,"
"Youghiogheny T" and "minotaur,"
And a host of other puzzlers7
Have you seen the burning blushes
On the cheeks Of vanquished spelers5
Have you noticed how the ladies
Hate to look toward the ~tellers?
Oh, the shame Of dropping is out,
And the grief of putting els in,
When the thing is just as easy
As coughing or sneezingl
oh, the red hot indignation
OF defeat, so near to gloryi
Oh, the blasted English language,
With its always changing story;
Oh, the prizes that we don't get
when we could have spelled each word
Except the one we didn't sperD
Of all that we had heardl
