NJ. Gambetta has failed in his effort to con-
troll the French Senate as he does the Chamber
of Deputies. He sought to have the Repub-
lican legislators act unitedly, but, as our Paris
letter shows, the Senators were ayerse to per-
sonal dictatorship.

If the Pennsylvania Legislature had taken the al
vice of the newspapers and closed its session
month ago, it might have dispersed, if not with
credit at least without scandal Now. on the eve OF
a long delayed adjournment, comes a revelation OF
corrupt practices employed for and against the so
called Boom bill that will send the whole body OF
members home in bad Olor An investigating COM
mittee has pointed out few of the delnqucnts, but
il is plain that it has only scratched the surface
The Boom bill Is an old stager in the Harrisburg
lobby Mr.. Peter Herdc has a boom across the Sus-
duehanna at Wiliamsport, and catches all the logs
that come down the river, charging the owners
81 25 per thousand, under former law. The lum-
bermen dubbed together to act cutting
down the toll to 81 The personal influence of SEN
ator Allen suticed to pass the bill through the SEN
ate on its merits, but in the House a carnival OF
corruption appears to have ragged around 1t. Mr.
Herd's agents bought votes to defeat the measure,
and the agent of the lumbermen paid out $4,000
buying votes to pass it, and the question WHICH side
could purchase the greater number was finally sew
tied by the passage of the bill. Then there was an
investigation, the bill was recalled. and the report
of the Committee Just made badly scorches about
dozen members. One of them, named Petrot, APP
pears to have done wholesale business, Tor he
bargained for the sale Of no fewer than fifteen OF
bis fellow-rascals in a batch. In face of the very
positive revelations of guilt it does not look if the
House were likely 10 expel anybody. They are so
accustomed at Harrisburg to making hay in the sun
shine of the lobby that such developments are
looked upon awkward out not serious. The
people of Pennsylvania, however, who expected
better things of the first Legislature elected under
the reform Constitution will not be SO Indifferent to
the scandal.

agent in the very numerous changes that have
taken place in the church choirs of this city
during the past year. Elsewhere We present a
full list of the members of chOirs now engaged
in our leading churches. 1t will be seen that
while many of the old favorites have been
displaced, an opportunity as been given III
numerous instances for younger and perhaps

Henceforth in the great country which ex-
tends from the Himalayas to Coromandel,
Queen Victoria is to be called Empress OF
India. The first practical result of this I'M
portant addition to the royal title will be to
give the Queen equality in rank with the I'M

AS the General Conference of the Methodist
Episcopal Church will begin its quadrennlal
meeting on Monday, an appropriate occasion
is given for the review of the history OF that
denomination, which we present In other
columns. The Methodists established their
form of worship in this city little over a
hundred years ago. The story of the rapid
growth of the Church in numbers and influence,
furnishes an impressive instance OF the power
that can be exerted by men who, as class,
have not been favored by wealth or culture,
hut who put the whole souled effort of their
lives into the work of spreading the doctrines
and practice of religion. The hcartincss OF
the preacher, is after all, the great element OF
success in the ministry, and the sketch which
we give of its ilustriOus divines will show how
greatly the Methodist Church has been favored
with men of energy.

The Public Administrator and presumably y
the Corporation Attorney have been informed
by Controller Green that he will not pay rent
for their Offices after May /. These Offices are
in Fernando Woods building at No. 1l5
Nassau-st., and for years the city has been
having hun an enormous rent for these
dirty and dingy rooms. Controller Green Is
right in declining to pay such extortionate
| rates longer.

By allowing the Journal de Paris, their prln-
cipal paper, to suspend its issues, the Orlean-
lists confess the hopelessncss of their cause.
The expiring journal admits that there is
nothing to be gained by discussing the form
of government before 1880, when President
MacMahon's term expires. This amounts to
conceding that the Republican Constitution
will be tried fairly.

OFFICIAL PAPER OF LYON COUNTY.
A JANESyILLE FEUD.
Three Men Killed.

John Hoffman gives us the follow
ing particulars of fatal affray which
occurred near Janesville on Friday
last: The difficulty was occasioned
by an old dispute in regard to land.
1t seems that a German named Iced
jumped a piece of land some years
ago, and consulting his lawyers was
advised to hold and defend it as his
property. Iced lately started the
digging of a ditch, an / meeting with
some opposition aud threats daclared
hls intention of completing and
holding it and armed himself against
interference. On the day in question
Mr.. Hayden and son, together with
two meu by name Bartlett and Pow
ers, went out to where Iced and a
anan named Fair were workiag.
When they came within s. yards
Iced commanded them to stop.
They continued to advance and Iced
fired upon the party, wounding the
elder Hayden, who fell. Hayden
then raised himself up and said,
"Why don't you finish your work."
Iced at once fired again, killing
Hayden instantly. Young Hayden
then ran up with his gun cooked and
fired ateLeed, missing him. He then
clubbed his gun and struck the Ger
man, whereupon Fair shot the young
mau four times, and finally Knocked
him in the head with his pistol. Old
man Bartlett was the next victim.
The victors knocked him down and
beat him severely about the head,
inilicting injuries which resulted in
death last Saturday night. Fair and
Iced were taken into custody by the
Sheriff of lslssen county, aud are ia
Jail at SusanviIle, awaitiagtrial. No
theory can be formed as to the right
or wrong of this case. There are
many conflicting assertions, and we
give only bare facts which all seemed
to admit Reno Gazette.
