Quarrels among friends can almost always
be prevented by little frank and manly talk.
Half the hcart-burnincs and bitterness which
disturb the harmony of our daily lives, break
up old associations and separate us from those
we really esteem, are the result of misconcep-
tons, which Il word might remove. Last week
the President and the Republican Congressman
seemed TO be on the point of an open rup-
ture, which would have been a serious
misfortune to both parties and ca
lamity to the country. Since then there
has been a friendly and unrestained exchange
of ideas between Mr.. Hayes aud certain repre-
sentative Senator's and, as con aqucnce, the
relations between the Executive and Congress
are greatly improved, and we are encouraged
10 believe that they viii become still more
cordial as time goes on. 1t is discovered that
some of tine complaints against the Admins
tration were founded on a mistake, and that
others can be removed without the slightest
difficulty. There is no reason why The Prcsi-
dent aud the leaders of the party in the Ma
tional Legislature should not agree, if they
will only talk together.
Mr.. Hayes is too modest and genuine to

Purroy SAYS he would vote for John Kelly
for President Mr.. Kelly should think of it,
by all means. Purroy can always carry a con
Vcntion, if he can have a recess in which to
get bail, and he has made the best time on
record in moving the previous question.
Iquique will always be famous in the annals
Of the State Department as the place where
some hundreds of American citizens wished
to serve as consuls, while the Office was yet
occupied There had been, indeed reports of
the death of the incumbent; the patriots who
sought to serve in his place did not
wait for precise facts. At last, many
months after that eager quest. it is now an
nOunccd that the Senate has confirmed a Con-
sui TO lquique. The disappointed 299 will,
doubtless, console themselves with the thought
that they will not be subjected to the tOrIid
heat, the frequent earthquake and the de-
struchve tidal wave which constitute the chief
experience o. life in the Peruvian city.
Mr. Pilsbury - making Iaplu Woih WIN the
old-fashioned balance-sheots Of the State Pris-
ons. The statement of the receipts at Sing
Sing for October shows that he is reducing
expenses and increasing income in way that
taxpayers viii appreciate. The most instructive
item Of ALL however, is that which sets forth that,
while in October, 1876, OF 1,4ll inmates,
9S7 earned nothing, and only 424 labored
under the contractors, III October, 1877. OF
] $50 inmates, 1885 were at work for con
tractors, and 245 were either disabled or
doing police service That tells the whole
story of the difference between the ring and
tine Pllsbuy style of State Prison manage
ment.
In the prosecutions for perjury brought
against the officers of broken insurance COM
panies, the chief defence, so far, is that the
annual statements were sworn to without ex-
animation as 10 whether they were true. These

The views of the Hon. Clarkson \. Potter IN re-

Agitation In Europe.

As was to be expected the outbreak
of the Russian war has caused grea
commotion and very uneasy lie the
heads that wear the crowns of Europe
England has declared her neutrality
but great activity is being displayed
at her military and naval stations in
the way Of preparations for any emer-
gency. A protracted debate has
commenced in Parliament as to what
expression of approval or condemna'
ton shall be made of the course 81
Russia. Reports from the continent
say that there is undoubtedly cor.
dial understanding between the En-.
perors Of Russia, Austria, and Ger
many in regard to all the questions
likely to arise during the war.

a party of two hundred and fifty
men from various parts of the coun-
try, with fifty wagons, left Bismark
for the Black Hills March %. At
Cannon Ball River dissatisfaction was
expressed by many over the slow
movement, and a party Of five, con-
sistng Of Tyler, Paddock and Frank
Raymond, of Mortified, MINI. C.
O. Daniels, Of Syracuse, n. Y, and
Swede named Burch, started ahead,
and were joined at Grand river by a
deserter from Fort Lincoln. The six
left Grand river March 81. A terri
BILE snow storm prevailing, the wagon
train remained at Grand river sever
al days, and a party while out hunt
ing came upon Paddock and Burch
who, in wandering about, had been
lost. Burcks feet had been frozen
and were badly swollen. His boots
were cut off, and walking over cac-
tus thistles had badly lacerated the
flesh. Paddock is recovering; Burch
will die. The other four men sepa-
rated in search of wood and shelter.
The bodies of Raymond and Daniels
were found twenty miles further on,
frozen stiff The two had dug with
knives hole foot and a half deep,
throwing the dirt around the sides
fol- shelter. Then discharging their
guns, which they placed by their
sides, they lay down, and, in abject
misery, expired. The remaining two
of the party have not been heard
from, and the inference is fair that
they, too, persisted in the terrible
storm. The bodies of Raymond and
Daniels were buried at Grand river,
their effects being taken possession Of
by their companions.
The alleged robbery of a Mr.. Jones
Of Baltimore, Of $55, 900 worth Of di-
almonds and jewelry while on his way
from Baltimore to New York, still re-
mains in mystery. The New York
papers state they were unable to gain
any further particulars. The proper
ty it is stated, consists of two very
valuable rings, an elegant brooch,
gentleman's pin and other jewelry.
A passenger train on the Keokuk

A Decline Again.

The upward movement in -four and
grain occasioned by the outbreak CT
the war has already received check.
Prices have fallen considerably from
the figures to which speculation car
ried them last week. Russia and
Turkey are both great grain produ-
cling countries, but as their producing
classes will have to join the army
they are not likely to have any sur
plus to export the coming year. If
the other powers Of Europe become
involved in the war the diminished
supply undoubtedly will cause de-
mand that will fully MAINTAIN prices
for our coming abundant crops.

-aasible places where they settle the
,rorst kind of old scores with their
ts, a man can 60 in and enjoy the
--,xury of a free fight on fourth Of
Iuly with reasonable chance Of hay
;ag enough vitality left to take turn
again on the next anniversary Of in
lerendence. Not so in the extreme
South where the sense Of honor is
~a'ad at a very high figure and hui
man life deprecated to a low rate
which has no sense at all in it. There
one fight may finish man but he
considers it sufficient glory to rush
in where life is los! but honor won.--
After good Pennsylvania fight how
ever there are no funerals and to their
credit be it said few or no old grudg-
es hanging over.
There was fight of the Southern
kind in De Kalb, Mississippi, last
week, and although an old grudge
has been efectually settled, we will
venture to say that the surviving
friends of the parties would now upon
mature reflection concede that they
would rather have had it settled af-
ter the old Pennsylvania fashion,
From the accounts in the papers we
learn that several years ago a man
named Benjamin Rush fired at John
W. Gully. at whom he had private
grudge. The ball missed John W.
Gully, but struck and killed his
brother, Samuel. John W. then fired
uron the murderer Of his brother and
wounded him badly. Since then there
has been q feud between the Gullys
and the BUSHES, and when John W.
was killed, few days ago, his assas-
sination was naturally attributed to
BENJAMIN Rush. Two coored men
swore, however, that four friends Of
Rush, named Chisolm, Gilmer, Rosen-
baum and Hopper, were prlvy to the
GRIM, and thereupon warrants for the
arrest Of these men were issued. CHS.
ohm was arrested and taken to the in.
secure county Jail, and not only al
lowed to retain his arms, hut to choose
his own guards. A mob Of Gully'S
friends broke into the prison, over
powered this guard and in the melee
which ensued the prisoner was NOR
tally wounded and several others
were either killed or wounded. Gil.
mer, another prisoner, was shot in an
attempt to escape while on the way tc
Jail. Hopper and Rosenbaum who
were in another part Of the jail were
it is said, taken by the mob to the
woods aud hanged. In the fray CHS
olm seized the guns left by the guards
and fired killing-Dr. Rosser one Of
the leaders Of the mob. He also &C
cidentally killed his own son. His
wife and daughter were in the prison
with him and clinging to him the
daughter received wound in the
arm. He finally fel! himself mortal
ly wounded as was supposed, but still
lives. Here is a detail of murder and
savage butchery worthy Of barbarie
age. The affair is made more dis.
graceful by the fact that most of the
parties were of good standing in the
community. Last fall Judge Chisolm
was the republican candidate for Con-
gress. The Gullys were democrats
Chisolm and Gilmer republicans, and
the bloody fray seems to have had its
origin in politics.

Iris now believed that the gunboats
which the Russians brought overland
and put together OH the Danube are
torpedo boats. This has an air Of
greater probability, and we are in.
clined to believe that for river duty
of the kind Russia needs just now
torpedo boats will be much more eff
fective than small one-horse gunboats.
They are only needed to keep off the
Turkish monitors, and nothing has so
powerful sedative effect on naval
enthusiasm as torpedoes in narrow
river channel.
