Hot ON THE OCEAN.-Tne blazing heat
Of the last two months has not only
toasted the dry land; it has stewed the
sea. Capt. Cook, tne Russia, just ar
rived, says that he never experienced
anything like the heat of the ocean on
the passage which landed him here on
Wednesday morning. 1t was far worse
than anything we have utfered ON shore,
for there was no shade or no wind. The
Gull Stream, 1t appears, has extended
much further to the northward this year
than usual, and we can well imagine the
sensations OF passengers carried for
days through water eighty degrees hot,
with the Dog Star raging aboYe.-[N. Y.

MADISON and Milwaukee papers vie
with each other in glowing accounts of
the inauguration of Gov. Ludington. It
makes some people sick to stand calmly
by and observe how simple citizens of a
republic scramble about in the hollow
mockeries of european court ceremonies.
The ladies present at the affair, and
their diversified display Of taste in dress
fashion or whatever one may choose to
call it. is also dwelt upon with an i'm
portance truly refreshing. Mayor Pin
ny s'did" the agreeable in the role of
master of ceremonies and is highly COM
mended for the grace and ease with
which he performed his onerous duties.
He must have been the very beau-ideal
of a Turveydrop.

One of the most difficult things to
find, is n prepared spice put up pure,
and of the full weight protested. The
greater part of the ground mustard, Gin
nanon, sage, ETC., bought at our grocer
les, is most sadly adulterated, and if put
up and labeled in England would subject
both manufacturer and vendor to heavy
legal fines, and criminal punishment.
We have la.ely been fortunate in secur-
ing package of spices, consisting Of
mustard, pepper, cinnamon, sage, cloves
etc, which seem to come up to the hon
nest standard in every way. The cans
are large, and the contents CT full GUAR
ter pound weights-while the spices are
qnite as palngent and aromatic as those
of home preparation. They are ground
and put up by c. e. Andrews & CO., OF
Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and we most cor
daily recommend them to all who wish
pure and reliable condiments. The pub
lie should take pains 10 encourage the
parties who VIII furnish pure spices, by
Il liberal patronage, as it is quite as much
for the advantage of the purchaser as
for the seller, to have such articles in
the market. The next time you buy
spices ask for those labeled "Crocker
Mills, put up by c. E. Andrews & Co.,
of Milwaukee, and you will get the worth
81 your money. They are sold by J. W.
Barnes & Co., and j. L. Brandeis.

We had intended, with this number
of our paper, to commence the issue of
a large fourteen-column supplement to
those of our readers whose subscription
had been paid up to the first of this
month, and should have done so had
Cramer, Aikens g. .Cramer, of the Mil
yankee Newspaper Union, fulfilled their
promises made to us and upon which we
depended. Arrangements had been com
pleted with them to send us for distrib-
ution with The Tribune, weekly, sup
plement containing much valuable and
and interesting reading matter but the
fact of their failing to live up to their
agreement compels us to arrange for
a supplement with other parties, and by
next week Certainly the week following)
the paid-up readers of the Tribune will
be furnished with such sheet The
supplement will double the amount Of
reading-matter now furnished, and is
issued as an inducement to those who
are owing us for subscription to at least
pay up to the beginning of the present
year.

AMEND HoNoRABLE.-Dr. Brown,
charged in November last with having
produced an abortion on the person of
the daughter of John Arnold of Coopers-
town, was last week discharged, and i'm
mediately re arrested and brought before
Court Commissioner Lon. 4. Shove for
examination. The result of these pro-
ceedings eliminated III the final dis
charge of the Doctor, no evidence being
found sustaining the charge. From the
testimony of the leading witness in the
case, i. e. the girl herself, it appeared
that nothing was done that any respect
sble physician would have refused to do
under similar circumstances. DIR. Brown
is more deserving credit for his skill in
saving the girls life than the suspicion
and discredit attached to his name and
reputation since this unfortunate affair
occurred. we hold that his acquittal
after two separate examinations is the
best vindication he could have possibly
found, and trust that his reputation as
physician and man is fully restored in
sha confidence of his neighbors and the
general pablo.

turned out to be sensible, well-behav-
ed sort of folks who cared little or moth
ing about sitting on the fence to dictate
men and measures, but quietly hoped
down and helped make the matter Re
publican throughout. We hoped that
someone beside Sam Fifield would have
been chosen to WELD the gayil this win
ter, but wont grumble. We have moth
ing personal against Sam. From the
time he commenced his political career
IN the capacity of door-keeper, We have
watched him closely and are not delight
Ell in his familiarity with railroad lob
byists. If Sam don't "bust'' in assunl-
ing the dignities OF Speaker (and lie is
apt to- he may live to be president for
all we know.
