CONDENSED NEWS.

Philadelphians are much interested
In our Texrs welfare. The Bulletin
publishes two column description Of
the suffering OF the soldiers on the
staked plains n month ago.
The Philadelphia Times pays Hon.
j. I'll. Reagan a high compliment for
bis account OF the capture of President
Davis. He was formerly postmaster
general, and was with the president
In his flight from Richmond.
An effort Is being made by parties
opposed to the PRESIDENTS policy to
purchase a controlling interest In the
Washington Republican In order to
turn its thunderbolts against him dur
ing the next session.
The proposition of Colonel Jones, Of
Louisiana, to grade and tie the rail-
road from Shreveport 10 the Mississip.
pi river, meets with hearty welcome
by the people along the line, and
much encouragement In the shape Of
cash is guaranteed.
The striking miners at Honesdale,
Pennsylvania, have made raids upon
the farmers OF that section, TO secure
food for their families. This has 80
enraged the farmers that they have
organized vigilance committees for
their self protection against these
depredstions.
The president and his party, now In
Ohio, are having q pleant time. Their
visit may or may not prove profitable
to the republican party in that state,
when the election comes of next
month, but II seems TO be evident that
the president will be proited by the
visit whether his party succeeds or not.

xenophon ana xsrxes.

It was curious reading OF history
backwards when the Russians and
Turko In Armenia were discovered by
war critics to be man@uvering on
Xenophon's ground, and over the
same roads by which the Greek Ten
Thousand made their historic retreat
TO the sea. And now we learn that
Captain Eads, who has bridged the
Mississippi at st. Louis aud opened It's
mouth at the gulf, Is TO repeat the ex-
pertinent OF Persian king. Aerxes
put a bridge OF boats oyer the Helles-
point, and Captain Eads IL to make
the next thing 10 1t, permanent
bridge over the Bosphorus. IL Is to be
hoped that such triumph Of engi-
neering as the successful rearing OF
this bridge will be may be- consecrated
to peace, and that John Brights idea
to make the Bosphorus channel an
open highway for all nations, may
also be carried out Ia this bridge be-

Trial OF Jesus Illegal.

A remarkable article appears In the
9Th supplement NJ the Popular Science
Monthly, and IL likely 10 make a gen.
uine literary sensation. Ii was written
b. John Taylor Times, and IL entitled
1.-THE Trial OF Jesus Christ" whose
tomb, a. Lamartin puts II, was the
grave OF the old world and the cradle
Of the new. Mr.. lines reviews this
most memorable % nil trials that the
world has ever witnessed, and subjects
Il and the chief actors therein to the
most searching analysis, and proves
that, judged by what studeDts know OF
the old Hebrew las and It's Observance,
Il was illegal from beginning to end.
What have been called the four great
rules OF Hebrew criminal jurispru-
dence --'istrIctness In the accusation,
publicity In the DISCUSSION, full free
dom granted 10 the accused, and as
surance against dangers or errors Of
tesiImonyS--all these rules were set az
nanaht Mr. lines will follow this
with second article, reviewing the
trial Of Jesus 10 the light OF the ho-
man code.

the old boylsh aspirations for going 70

A confused Mass Of Mali Matter.

The mail which arrived at New
York Thursday morning from France
and Germany by the steamer Suavla,
reached the postoffice so hot that the
bags could with difficulty be handled.
A large number OF letters had been
sealed with wax which had melted
aud the letters were badly torn and
mutilated in being separated. In some
cases It was impossible 10 decIpher the
address. In one bag there were about
1--we thousand registered letters with
heavy wax seals and the melting Of the
wax has fused them into an iDseper-
able mass. By great care the postofiice
clerks were able TO get most OF the let
ters separated ana those for other
parts of the country were reinclosed
and forwarded. The mails are suppos-
ed to have become overheated by being
carelsssly stored near the steamers
/ rollers.
