Tom scorr's Washington organ may grint

Tom ScoTT's Washington organ may grind
and grind and grind until doomsday but can
never utter more absurd thing than the fol
lowing:
The country needs all the money that can
be obtained by legitimate means to revive its
industries and to give artisans and laborers
remunerative employment. Congress can se-
cure eighty-fve millions of foreign gold ior
permanent investment by passing the bill
guaranteeing the interest on the bonds of the
Texas and Pacific railroad bill. The House
will find it of more benefit to the country to
do this than to spend its time in wranglng
over impeachments.

IT is reported that the Senate committee

IT is reported that the Senate committee
on foreign relations have sent message to
the President asking for the withdrawal of
the nomination of Mr.. Dana as Minister to
England. The reason assigned is the suit
between Mr.. Lawrence and Mrs. Wheaton in
regard to the latters edition of Wheaton's In-
ternational Law, and very poor reason it is
too. Mr.. Lawrence's edition of that work,
issued during the war of the rebellion, was
unsatisfactory because the views expressed in
his notes endorsed the Southern view OF the
relations between the federal government and
the states. Mr. Dana was therefore engaged
to prepare new edition, and in the prepara-
tion of that edition some of the least objec-
tiorable of Mr.. Lawrence's notes were used
through the negligence of copying clerk
Suit was brought against Mrs. Lawrence and
the case Is not yet decided, some years having
passed since it was submitted to referee
who has made no report.

Killing a Man Before He Heard the
Shot Fired

There is an American story of re-
spectacle antiquity that tells how a
fast train outran the sounds Of its own
signals and came to utter grief, the
sound of the warning whistle arriving
after the. collision, The driver was
killed, and the story ended with the
words, "Poor fellow he was dead
when his curses reached him." A
curious, and much more certainly
true, is the fact that when man Is
struck by lightning he does not see
the flash. We do not know that it
has been observed that something
similar will happen to the first man
killed by the 8l-ton gun, within a
mile of its muzzle he will not hear
the shot fired. The velocity OF the
sound is 1882 feet per second. The
muzzle velocity of the 81-ton gun is
about 600 feet per second. In fact,
as the shot carries the whistle along
with it, one would hear the whistle of
the shot before hearing the gun.
Some curious observations might be
made in regard to the latter point,
as to the acoustic effect of sound
emitted by body travelling faster
than the sound. The only example
we have is the lightning flash, pro-
ducing the irregular roll of the thun-
der.

ask and brocaded patterns have very
small figures. Solid colors prevail,
but there are many fine black and
white checked goods also. The
stripes shown are mostly in the
weaving, not in the coloring. A fa-
vorite design is closely twiled
stripe, half an inch wide, with a
Mexicane or quadrille pattern be-
tween. The rough finished camel's
hair and serges of last year will re-
main in fashion, also cashmeres. In
plain cashmere black will still be used
as standard dress when colors are
chosen they will be of the ink shades
that are only few removes from
black. As We have already said.
myrtle green of the darkest hue will
be the most sty lish color for winter
suits The new seal browns are
dal ker even than those of last winter.
In assorted eases of nice WOODEN
goods the dark shades are ranged in
this order, first green, then seal
brown, navy blue, and granite. The
gray shades formerly so much worn
rank last in numbers among late I'M.
portatlons, Some bright cardinal red
shades are imported in cashmere and
quadriilec wooleDs. Empr ess cloths
are brought out in good dark shades
for serViceable dresses, and merino is
shown in light tints for children's
wear and for wrappers, as we'll as in
the dark shades that wear well and
do not show soil.
New linen collars and cuffs for
morning wear and for travelling have
wide bindings of Scotch gingham, in
gay plaids of bl1e, scarlet white and
black. Others have plain percale
bindings Of dark cardinal red or of
gray-blue percale.

A Tilden Organs Opinion of Tilden.
He cannot carry bis own st

/. He cannot carry his own state
in November
Q. He cannot carry any northern
state.
8. He is a hypocrite, political
swindler, has long been public
plunderer, and really the only disrep-
utable candidate prominently named
on the democratic side.
4. He did what he could TO defeat
the democratic party of Ohio in 1875,
expanding his money and substituting
the eastern democrats press to the
end, knowing that Ohio's victory was
his defeat and loving Tilden more
than the democratic party, he has
earned the democratic enmity of the
west and the south.
s. lie has sought his high Office
by methods so unprecedentedly
shameless and disreputable that it
would be an everlasting stigma upon
a democratic convention to nominate
him, and reproach upon the Ameri-
can people to elect him if nominated.

THE Democrats held possession OF
the town of Windsor, Maine, for four
teen years. At the last election the
Republicans carried it, after a hard

a mixed and ugly shape. lnvest'ga-

cials stole $13,443, FIVE per cant. of
the entire valuation of the town.

NEW WOODEN GOODS.

The new wooden goods are of the
same soft pliable texture lately worn,
but are woven in greater variety OF
designs than We have had fer several
seasons. Oflate almost all fine wool
ems were in twilled diagonal patterns;
now we arc to have not twills alone,
but raised figures, Mexicaine patterns
in squares, armures, and raised
threads ip.diamonds and cross-bars.
Perhaps the pretticst fabrics are
those fine woods, as soft as camers
hair, yet woven in quadrille threads
all OF one shade, making raised
square il the centre by depressing
the barred threads, or else lowering
the square and having thicker
threads for the bars. The honey
comb and basket>woven patterns of
last year are all shown again. DAM
