JOURNALISTIC NOTES.

Germany has 1852 newspapers and periodicals.
London Punch isn't so good as it was when they
put Lemon in it,
The London Times is about to issue a weekly
edition at penny copy.
Mr.. E. H. House, formerly of the New York
Tribune, is soon to begin the publication Of a
weekly newspaper in Toxic, Japan, to be called
the Toxic Times.
son to make at least one great speech, because he
may not go to Congress repeatedly and Christ
mas comes but once year.
The journalistic gossip is that Mr.. ChiIds has
bought controlling interest in the New York
Tribune, and that &. b. Wesley. the publisher,
has also purchased controlling interest In the
World. - .-.--.
The Chicago Adrance has been enlarged j.
b. Mcclure, the managing editor, has retired,
and his successor. Mr.. H. /. Ensign, has engaged
the services of Mr.. Washington GLADDEN. and
Mr. Arthur SwaZey.
The Paris Debats publishes the latest news
from America. Its fast enterprise was the an
nouncement that the South Carolina Legislature
had refused to admit Messrs. Laurens and Edge
teld two Democratic members.
A York editor has been favored with copies of
the Lancaster InteNigenccr and Weekly Adrer-
tiser, dating back to 1903. They were Printed
by William Dickson, at the printing Office and

Leander p. Richardson. the son of Mrs. Abby
Sage Richardson, who was killed in the Black
Hills by the newspapers last summer, is engaged
in the preparation of a book to be called "BeyOnd
the Mississippi. He is on the editorial staff OF the
Springfield Republican.
Mr. Mimic, editor of the London Examiner, is
described as the ciest cynic that ever sat in judy
ment on a beginners volume of poems, but his
paper is of the most thoughtful and one of the
ablest radical journals. Next year 1t recommences
life as sXpenny journal. William Blacks new
novel, which will be run through the paper, will.
it is hoped. bring enough buyers to make the
dearer issue OF the paper pay.
Mr.. Joseph Hatton, who has edited the Lon
don Hornet for some time. is regarded by many
people as journalistic failure. His paper has
been sold to a Captain Shaw, brother of Vero
Shaw, a breeder OF bulldogs, writer on canine
matters and popular man. Mr.. Hatton has I'M
disputed and high talent as a novelist and drama
tist. and his wife and child are playing in Bouci

Mr. Z. A. Buck now has entire editorial con-
troll of The Spirit of the Times. Under his man
agement it is singularly comprehensive, care

Christmas number which 1t has Just issued is
probably the best ever sent out from Its Office

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE.
Extortionate Prices in Washington.

To the Editor Of the National Republican:
SIR: Yolr exposure of and determined effort
to break up gambling in this city is praiseworthy
and should merit the hearty cooperation of
every good citizen in the District. And now,
while you are in the reform" movement, it is to
be hoped that you will give your attention to an
other class of leeches, who are fattening on dis
honest gains. refer to the great majority of the
dealers in the necessaries of life. There is not
another city in the Union where the costs of rents
and living have not been reduced within the last
year two except the city of Washington.
There is combination on the part Of dealers, in
the face of hard times and lack of business, to
exact to the uttermost the highest prices for
everything.
It is only necessary for any one who cares to
interest himself in the matter to make inquiry to
establish this fact. We will instance a few arti-
cles of everyday consumption. Apples, for which
we are charged 10 cents per peck, or at the rate
of $50 per bushel, can be bought by the barrel
for from $40 TO SLIGO. Potatoes. for which We pay
so cents per peck, 81 per bushel, are delivered
here by the car load at 90 and 81 per bushel
Butter which in the markets and groceries sells
for 70 ard 81 is
with meat. Beet costing butchers and dealers
from to cents we are charged 20 and p cents
for.
Dealers in fuel are equally guilty. and in a
season like this the misfortune applies keenly to
the poor and needy. That class OF people who
cannot afford to purchase fuel in larger quantities
than that of few cents worth at time, suffer
most. They are charged at nearly the rate Of one
cent per pound for coal, or in the aggregate
go per ton, and some Of the yards sell much to
these small customers as to the larger buyers.
In no other city, as before Stated is this whole
SAFE ropOee.Y OF the poorer classes carried on to
le extent that it is here in the capital OF great
Country. There is no reason-n0 excuse for 1t
whichever. The victims submit, hopelessly walt
ing for 'better times.m The press should always
be found on the side of the oppressed, and should
raise its voice in defence of the helpless who are
subjected TO the power of thieyng monopolies
Therefore we ask YOU to speak.

SITS Christmas tomorrow" said Captain Jack
Miller to his steward, land you may put some
plums in the cabin duff, but don't use many, and
put 'em all in one end. can't afford to give the
mate plumduf.'
"Plums in the duff to-day, steward:'' said the
mate next morning.
YES sirp said the steward; shut you won't
get none. They're all goin' lin the old mans
end"
That day. when the duff came OF the table, Just
as the captain was going to help the mate to duff,
that officer quietly turned the dish, remarking as
he did so, srhat's a curious old ware, Captain
Miller
YES" said the captain, as he restored the dish
to its former position. 'pye had that plate Tor
long time"
WMay ask said the mate, once more turning
the dish, ''where you got that platter
81 think, If recollect right" said the captain,
as he put the blank end OF the pudding toward
the mate, shat l got it somewhere up the
Straits"
II thought" the mate observed. as he slowed
the plum end toward him, shat it was not made
in England
"ThapH do, Mr. Jones,n said the captain;
'sthatll do. Let the dish alone and I'll cut the
duff fore and aft"

/. Mr.. George w. Drivers Reception.

"ihcre are certain bright spots in the lives of
newspaper aaen,r' said we yesterday, as We struck
thenorthwest corner of Four -halfstreet and
Pennsylvania avenue, where that prince of good
fellows. George w. Driver, holds forth. George
is adeIver: he goes after the bottom facts. He
cares nothing for fellows external appearance,
butt many years ago he went after the sinner
man" ard caught him. He had long interview
WITH bin: and now be knows just what he wants.
George is also an artist, and believes that So
chunks Of diet, like solid chunks Of wisdom, go
down much easier when dressed with the proper
trimmings. Knowing all this, We were prepared
to md, upon entering his doors, where evergreen
decorations typied the heart Of the host, all that
thealoresaid inner man could desire. But we
wete not prepared for the bounteous and beauti-
full display that met our view. The cosy-like
snuggeTy was festooned with flags and gar landed
delAbras, shed soft. rich glowupon the delicacies
mort temptingly arranged upon the great table
that stretched the length of the room. 1t Is I'M
possible to fully describe the beauty aud artistic
Arrangement Of this salon. Among the chief fea-
tures of the table was beautiful prismatic foun-
tain placed in its centre, which flashed out rays
in riyalry with the mammoth crystal punch bow,
dish was laden with the fruits Of nearly every
cline, Spiced oysters lay almost frozen In their
icy3bed, and chicken salad, the best we ever ate,
was exhaustible; in fact, everything was there,
and nothing gave out. 1t is understood that at
least fifteen hundred of Mr.. Drivers friends
called upon him, and at IL p. N. his bountiful
board showed not the slightest decentralization.
The decanters were as full as in the morning and
the generous host, smiling, waited for other
friends to conquer,

AntonelG's william Interesting Document.

The will of the late Cardinal Antonelli seems
to shed a new light upon the character Of one of
the best abused and least trusted men Of his
time. After commencing his soul to the mercy
Of God, dire citing the celebration of masses, and
beQueathing crucifx to the Pope, he says:
Before proceeding to dispose Of my private
fortune, declare that do not possess any other
capital beyond that which came from the heritage
of my excellent father, or which / have been able
to acquire through the means left me by him.. l
protest. therefore, against all the calumnies
which on that and on any other account whatso-
ever have been in so many ways circulated through
the world, before God. who is to judge me, and
before Him forgive from my heart all those who
have tried to do me evil.
'.If, in doing my duty, may have caused dis
pleasure TO any one, have the conscience of
never having had even the intention Of inlurng
any one whomsocver. l direct my heirs to con-
sign TO the persons whom have thought it my
duty to remember some memoranda which
shall leave written in sealed paper by me sub
scrbed."
The will, as has been already announced, be-
queaths the bulk Of his property to his brothers,
but also contains long list of minor legacies to
more distant relatives and intimate friends. The
Cardinal also makes ample provision for his old
