THE Cumberland Lyceum las fore
stalled congressional debate upon the
electoral system. Two.powerful argn-
ments pro and two CO" convinced two
thirds Of the judges that the system
should be sbsqustulated; one-third

The Lyceun has now on opportunity
to discuss the majority rule as a pre-
vsntivs Of contingent chaos on its
bench. Affairs like this drift inevlta-

cradle presidents. Nobody can vouch
for unaninity in the decision OF lofty
questions, as a rule of the Lyceum it

air-pumps, forcing or suction fans of
sufficient capacity and power, or 9th
er suitable appliances, SO as to produce
and insure constantly an abundant
supply of fresh air throughout the
mine but in no case shall a furnace be
used in a mine where the breaker and
shute buildings ara built directly over
and covering directly tho top of the
shaft. Gubal's fan is preferred to all
others 1t is generally made from ff-
teen to thirty feet in diameter, and
from six to twelve feet wide, according
to the requirements Of the mine 1t
is enclosed in case having stack
from twenty to thirty feet long, e1-
tending upward.
The Leniells and Fabry fans are
used in many mines in France and
Germany, and Nixon's and Sturve's
ventilating pumps are at work in
England and South Wales; but one
serious fault to all mechanical ventila-
tors is their liability to get out of Or
der and stop. In fiery mines this is
considered by many able, practical
men a fatal objection, because the stop
page Of tho vsntilating currents, even
for a few minutes, would food the
workings with gas, and imperil the
lives of the whole underground popu-
latien. For shallow mines, however,
and mines which give of no inAam-
mable gas, the fan is the best ventilat-
ing power in use.

GEN. CUSTER.
When Grant is Angry He - - Know
Nothing.


Grants punishment of Custer is rous-
ing public opinion in manner that
cannot fail permanently to injure the
President. 1t would seem that his
treatment OF the gallant Indian fighter
at the White House, should have salts
fled Grants private anger. Gen. Custer
did not seek to testify at Washington.
In his letter to Clymer he requested that
questions for him to answer should be
sent to him- by mail This request
being refused he was compelled to
obeya Congressional summons. The
Presidents friends have endeavored to
explain his action on the ground of mill
tary necessity: but his personal insult
to Gen. Custer shows that he was in a
mood to seek revenge. If it was the
duty of Gen. Custer to call upon the
President; and if he called, as he did,
merely as matter of military etiquette,
why could the President not receive him
accordingly? The President was angry,
and there is no excuse for him. Gen.
Ingalls, demonstrated with him for
treating Gen. Custer so rudely in the
White House, but he sullenly refused to
say word in reply The truth remains
that Gen. Grant is a personal enemy Of
Gen. Custer, that he privately insulted
him and that he publicly disgraced him.

a BRUTAL FATHER.
He Assaults Ills wife and Tries to XIII
His babe Eight Months Old.

Some five years ago Alex Gibbons con-
cluded to take until himself wife, be-
licving that byinvolving himself into a
matrimonial speculation his future
happiness would be secured, but as time
passed on he found that the bright
visions that haunted him while single
now began to wear darkened hue. and
that his life was one Of disappointment.
Some eight months ago the matrimonial
tie between the couple was made much
stronger by Heaven sending unto them
a child, a prattling blue eyed babe. This
band of wedlock did not even make
Gibbons any the happier. and from the
time Of the child's birth he
started to ill-treat and beat
his wife, and continued to do go until
Monday, when Mrs. Gibbons found that
she could live with her husband no
longer, and. taking her infant, went to
live with her sister. Yesterday evening
Gibbons returned home, and finding
that his wife had departed from under
his roof, started in search Of her Hear
