of patrons, and adding daily to her bank ac-
count. That year her house in Greenwich
street was mobbed, and the madame narrowly
escaped injury at the hands of her infuriate
neighbors, No prosecutions could drive her
from her business. All of her patrons moved
in upper-tendom, and she exacted enormous
fees. She finally moved to the magnificent
residence she has occupied now for many years,
and there she has served her customers, undis-

AUSTRIA AND ENGLAND AGREED,
LONDON, April S.-The Times, in a leading
editorial article, says: The main fact iu the
present posture of affairs is that Austria and
England are one in their views of the treaty of
San Stefano, and of the only means by which,
without war, it can be brought into harmony
with the just claims of the other powers. The
public opinion of Europe is with them, and if
they act together with firmness and loyalty,
Russia may be induced to withdraw from her
position, which would then be obviously un-
tenable.
Vienna papers commenting on Lord Sails
bury's circular to the powers say that Aus
tria and England are agreed regarding Lord
Salisbury criticism of the treaty of San Ste
fano and the steps necessary to protect the in
terests of both States, and express conviction
that only by Difference of Russia to Lord Sails

A Mysterious Murder.

CINCINNATI. O., August 22.-At one
o'clock yesterday morning some unknown
party gained admission through an open
door to the sleeping room Of Samuel
Armstrong, a wealthy young farmer liy-
Ing pear London, Ohio, and advancing TO
his bed placed the muEzle Of a revolver
to his head Just above the left ear and
discharged the contents Of one chamber i,
causing instant death. The report aWak'
ened Mrs. Armstrong, who was sleeping
by his side. Jumping up, she called to
him, and receiving no response arose and
lighted 4 lamp, when she discovered the
terrible deed. There was no sign Of life.
and Il was evident that deceased hsd not
moved after receiving the shot. Mr..
Armstrong having no known enemy, II Is
a mystery who committed the murder.

New YoRK, August 22,-The Hewitt
Congressional Committee on the Labor
Question continued In session this morn
Ing.
Prof. Quinmer was the first witness.
He said that he was Professor Of Polit-
ical and Social Science in Yale College.
He called attention 10 the fact that with.
in q few years the means Of Transports
ton and Communication had become
greater, and, by these means, he thought
over.production was the consequence and
had made n complete revolution over the
whole world. He said that when the
Suez Canal was first opened goods came
much quicker and caused glut In the
English market, new goods accumulating
on top OF the old; but this slut had now
been overcome. Within the last quarter
Of century there had been great i'm
provement in machinery Of all kinds, and
taking the accumulatlng effect Of all
these machines, they must accumulate
and produce Il temporary setback. Ma
chinery had been a great good TO the
masses, though in cases Of individuals and
classes Il had worked them evil.
After recess William E. Dodge, an iron
merchant, appeared 10 an official capacity
a. President Of the National Temperance
Society, and claimed that the use Of in
toxicating liquors was one Of the causes
Of the present condition Of the laboring
Glasses. This distress 10 labor might be
relieved TO some extent by modification
OF the tariff and the action OF the Gov.
ernment in the matter Of specie payments.
He never knew capital to be so abupd.
ant as. now, but there was great difficulty
In using II in business. Another action
in .alleyiating this distress would be
legislation in the matter OF liquor traffic.
Other oficers Of the National Temperance
Society appeared and the committee I'D.
iourned till tomorrow.

The Camp Meeting Is ended to-day.
The trains, both ways, aS well as wagons,
are crowded with goods on their home.

deserted appearance, and 1t has sad
dening effect to gaze around where, but
yesterday, the busy throng was gathered.
A pleasant week has ended; one to which
many will look back, delighted to remem-
ber. The popularity Of the place is q
settled fact, and there will be quite q
number OF new tent.holders on hand next
year. A feeling Of confidence prevails in

and already have We heard persons talk.
ing Of what we'll be next year. Who can
tellP OF all the thousands that have
visited here within the week, who will be
on this side Of eternity when again the
time for meeting comes.
At7:SO last evening the closing sermon
was preached by Rev. Darby from the
text-"There Ia joy in heaven over one
sinner that repenteth."-This was more
Of an exhortation than sermon. Alter
lie delivery the presiding elder reasoned
and plead with the crowd. He exhorted
them to take advantage Of this, the last
opportunity they could have during this
meeting to seek salvation. The minis.
ters having admonished and eIhorted at
all times and with such earnestness, the
case now rested with each individual
person.
After prayer meeting the usual clos.
ing handwriting took place. This Is
always pleasant feature of the meeting,
aud many clasped hands with true heart
friendship who week ago were stran-
gers TO each other. II was not until mid.
night that the singing ceased, and, tired
In body, but strengthened in spirit, all
sought repose.
In the town several families tsill linger
and will for some days, resting from the
hurry and excitement Of the week.
On last evening one Kelley, the same
party who paid for selling intoxicants,
became wild from effects OF liquor; and
ATTEMPTED to shoot his wife, failing 10
that he swore TO shoot some one, and
rushing to the street lodged ball 10
the hand OF Vanhorn. The victim sought
vengeance byknocking down his asVailant.
The police arriving, found Kelley in bed
10 ali appearance unable to move, and
supposing they could secure him in the
morning left him. He has not yet been
found. Mr.. jenkins, who was hurt on
Sunday, is conscious, and hopes are en-
tertained Of his recovery.
Some dissatisfaction is expressed rs TO
the action Of the Association in one mat.
ter-that Of voting $3.50 toward the dis.
trict parsonage debt. The money was
freely paid by those who expected to de-
rive benefit in improvements Oh the
grounds, and many think they have mis-
placed the money. REPoRTER.

The pre.eminenee OF the mechanical
genius Of citizens Of the United States
may be admitted, and is illustrated not
for the first time In the exhibition at Paris.
The Times, without pretending to eI-
haust the whole secret OF the phenomenon
Of genius across the Atlantic, finds reason
in the greater efficiency OF labor there,
and In the increased cost and difficulty
Of hiring 1t. The condition OF the Union
as an economic society drives i.s inhabi-
