SPEAKER RANDALL on THE LIFE STATION
APPROPRIATIONS.
Statements having been made "a rea-
son for there not having been proper ser
vice at the life saving station, near where
the disaster to the Huron occurred, was
from insufficient appropriations, Speaker
Randall, in q note 10 a gentleman Of the
Associated Paess, says I: ~ beg leave to
direct your attention to the following en-
tract from 4 speech delivered by me in
the House Of Representatives on the 18th
Of August, 1876: For life saving and lie
boat stations our appropriations are In
excess Of those made last year; we give
this year s2S7 ,46O; while the amount ap-
propriated last year was $23l $50. Sure
ly We can not be charged with injuring
this humane service OF the government
when we have in this Democratic House
appropriated more than. was appropriated
bya previous Repu blican House. find
upon examination Of the act Of last year
when embraced in the expenditures for
the current fiscal year, that the amount
appropriated was S93S, ,O60, an advance
over either Of the two prior years."

DRHTuERIA has become unusually
viruIent in New England, killing eff
great numbers Of people. The Boston
Rst says:
The prevalence Of diphtheria brings
out many new facts in connection with
the origin and spread Of this dreaded
malady. A New Haven paper says il
was introduced into that part OF the
country about twenty-five yeara ego in an
exceedingly virulenI form by the exhum-
alton oi remains in West Haven. Nearly
all who were exposed to the exhalatiops
from the graves died in spite OF all that
could be done to save them. The poison
that arises from drains and other recep-
tacles Of refuse acts in . similar, even il
less violent, manner, and the subject Of
ventilation has its extreme importance
freshly illustrated by these facts.

The Business OuiloOk

PittIburgh Alnuiaeturer Of Yesterday.
The hopeful feeling which has char
acterized this market for the past two
months still continues. There Ia an al
most universal feeling that business has
settled down to . firm and healthy basis,
and while in many cases selling prices
are 40 low that they leave no margin for
profit, there seems TO be NO reason To
doubt that the outlook for next years
business Is good one. December will
be dull month in souie trades, IS is to
be expected, but the opening spring
viii probably bring . volume otbusiness
which has not been equaled slnce the

DAVID DAVIS.
Intense Interest Concerning His
Position on the Merits OF the
south Carolina Case

WASHINGTON, November 9s.-senator
David Davis has stated TO Republican
Senators that he intends to make a sY.eech
upon the merits Of the Butler case. some
Of the Republican Senators are very con-
fident tonight that Davis does not in.
tend 10 vote 10 seat Butler, and that he
will reconcile himself to the Democr attic
party on the ground that by his vote to
discharge the committee he has aided
the Democrats in bringing the ques-
tion up for consideration, and has
done justice to the State OF South
Carolina in preventing the further
pestpouement .Of the question Of her
representation in the Senate. But Sem
atOr Davis has been careful at ali Ii mes
to distinctly disavow having expressed
any opinions on the merits Of the case,
and in fact has not indicated BY his vote
how he wonld vote on the merits, It il
possible now that he will make Il speech
giving it as bis legal opinion tha. the
Legislature which elected Butler was not
legal. II he should do so BatIer could
not be seated unless Davis should with.
hold his vote, for il he votes with The
Republicans, and Conover and Patterson
with the Democrats, the vote would be a
tie and the Vice President would have
the casting vote.

LONDON, November 2S.-ln the course
Of his recent speech at Dublin Mr.. Glad
stone expressed an opinion upon the land
laws Of Great Britain which may prove
one day to be Of high political importance.
II am bound to say, in the first place,
that attach no value 10 our land laws in
respect to entail and settlement. On the
the contrary, au in favor Of rather
bold and important, If not sweeping
change. Greater freedom ought to be es.
tablished, and think that not merely
economical but social mischief results
from the present system. Therefore am
prepared to entertain on that subject a
great change
