Boston Letter TO the Detroit FREQ Pre,s.l
Apparently Miss Anna has the by
draulic pressure OF Job Trotter or
Brother Shcarman when other arguments
fail, ! remember, some ten or eleven
years ago, when President johnson was
here, he visited the school.ship, then one
Of Boaton's lions, and, like other guests,
inscribed his name on the visitors book.
Shortly after came Anna Dickinson, and,
while registering her own, took the cool
liberty Of drawing her pen through the
name oil the President Of the United
States. The Captain, on discovering the
impcrtinent performance, without max
ing allowance for the fact that Mr.. John.
sons politics were not approved by Miss
Dickinson, had her name crossed ont, and
marginal note inserted explaining why.
Tradition says that the future Queen Of
Tragedy wept painfully upon learning Of
this "unmanly outrage" Judge Russell,
who was then Collector OF the Port and
patron of the school.ship, cruelty refused
to have the Captain hanged at the yard.

Furnace Employees Strike.

Thursday last the employees OF the
Isabella furnace, at Etna, gave notice
that Il they did not receive an advance IN
their wages they would strike. The no.
tice was to terminate on Saturday, and
as the men had an interview with one Of
the furnace owners, who refused their
demand, they struck on Saturday and
now refuse to go to work unless their do
mand is complied with. Last fall the
tillers were getting 81 So per day, but
several months ago their wages were re-
duced to 81 40. The keepers who were
receiving 50 % were reduced TO So; keep.
ers who were getting 81 so were reduced
to 81 62; top filters who were paid 81 GS
were reduced to 81 So, and under-wheel-
ers, who were getting 81 IS were reduc.
ed to 81 40. The strikers ask an advance
OF ten per cent, and, although they have
no union, say they will stay out till they
get the increase asked.-Pt'S. Er. Leader.

The answers to the Pope's allocution,
appealing to the faithful to rally to the
defense Of the Pope against Italy,
all agree that any such programme is
not only out OF the question but entirely
uncalled for. In every Catholic country
in Europe there is more or less effort by

devolved upon Jules Simon to assure the
great body Of French Catholics that,
while they were secure in their religion,
the government would not permit high
cCclesiastiCs to intrigue and ioment a
bascless quarrel with n friendly foreign
power. The italian Minister at Paris
thanked him for this utteranre. The ad.
yanced Republicans, like Gambettn, urge
thCl government to enter at once upon
policy Of disestablishment, like that
pursued by Bismarck in Germany. But
the Republic is not yet strong enough tC
undertake this task. 1t belongs 10 the

The principal fact that had aided in un.

at the time Of the Advent the Jewish race
was as much dispersed throughout the
world as at this present time, and had
been 80 for many centuries. Thus colon

Cheap Ice This Year.

fitttburgh'kyen!ns Leader.
Everybody knows ice is plenty this
year. The ice men say they'll not make
anything-thst they will lose money on
it, and the only thing that keeps them up
is the expectation OF a scarce crop next
year. Ice will keep for ten years and
longer il it is properly put up.
The annual croppage Of Ice since 1873
varied greatly rs 10 quality. In that
year there was 10000 tons Of ice in the
county, and it was all sold. In 1874 there
was 10000 tons; in 1875, 10000 tons; in
1876, 10000, and this year there is 1876.
600 tons. And the ice men say there il
market for it all. This market consumes
about 10000 tons annually, but dealers
never consider they are doing well unless
they can keep two years stock ahead.
They hold what they can till the market
runs short, and then what they have lost
on previous sales they mako up again.
That's the only way, they say, any mon.
ey's to be made out Of it. A market
such as may be looked for this year old
dealers can stand, but new ones Just en-
tering the business would not be likely to
make any money. Back stock is what
they look to-stock held over. Tho fol.

were occupied by the deceased, were
found four email trunks, one Of
very large size. When opened, o
layer of bundles Of clothes, neatly
packed and corded, was found in
each, and underneath the bundles
were found numerous pitchers of
various sizes and descriptions.
Some were of china and garnished
with gilt work; others were com
mon white clay; some were weighty,
and many were tiny vessels, and all
were massive and apparently new
and had never been used. In one
of the rooms, also, was an assort-
ment Of tin utensils, all bright and
new, and in the chamber of the
deceased were found two under
skirts used by shoplifters, and
which were quilted and had a num-
Der of capacious pockets conye-
niently arranged. Both had heavy
straps to fit over the shoulders. The
woman was sixty-ive years old, and
probably died of old age. She
lived alone, and her neighbors do
not appear to be familiar with her
ways of life.
