The editor of the Lancaster (Pa) Neto
Era contributes a bit of history by way
of impeaching John Sherman's friend
Anderson. He says that he discharged
Anderson from his employ in 1860 for
making a proposition to the Democratic
managers TO mix the Republican tickets
which were being printed in his estabb-
lishmeut. Considering Mr. Anderson's
fitness as Republican politician, we are
surprised that he didn't come to the sur
face sooner, He was no doubt the prop
or man to do the knavish work which
Sherman and Matthews had performed
in Louisiana, but they should have paid
him like a man and avoided all his trou-

CARLOS WHITE has once more got

PEELED to yield to any exactions he may
be disposed to put upon them, or go to

just right. When the Country Press AS
sociation was formed, nearly two years
ago, 1T would have been an easy matter
to have squelched this infringement
upon Legitimate journalism, by a COM

KEEP THE BULLIoN.-O of the i'm
portant provisions of the Silver Bill as it
passed is the amendment of Senator
Booth authorizing the issue ofSilver Ger
tiicates, of like denominations as United
States Notes, in exchange for Silver Bull
lion. These certificates, being SO much
more convenient than the silver coin, will
surely become circulating medium and
silver bullion can be much easier slowed
away in the Government vaults than can
al equal amount Of silver dollars, In
view Of these facts, the reftting OF the
New Orleans Mint and the establishment
Of others seem unnecessary. The mints
now in operation can easily produce o.
SOC, 900 silver dollars per month and in
one years time all the silver coin needed
for convenience as small change can thus
be placed in circulation. Silver Bullion
on deposit in the U. S. Treasury will be
preferable to silver dollars, and the ex-
penses of useless coinage thus obviated.

Russia-I am going to take those Turk

Russia-Lst's see. But that isn't near
enough. want two or three or twenty
or thirty millions of roubles.
England-By George, you'd better take
Turkey and be done with it.
Russia-Don't know but that 1 shall.
Now, there's Egypt.
England-Now, ifyou touch Egypt I
shan't like it. I'll roar. 1 can roar aw-
ful. You'd betternot make me roar.
Russia-O, roar and bel think I'll
cork up the Bosphorus, too.
England-Now, if you cork up the Bos-
phorus will roar. I've got 400, 900 roar
ing men. /
Russia-Yes, I'll put fort on the Bos-
phorus.
England-Now, I'm Just going to COM
mence to roar right away if you do that.
Austria will roar with me, too, won't you,

Austria-I-I dunno. 1 haven't roar

the last time 1 roared at Germany. May

"PREsIDENT KEARNEY delivered one
of his characteristic addresses" says the
Cht o,,icie of last Monday, referring to
meeting the previous afternoon ut the
extracts are taken from the same report
of Kearney's Characteristic Address /:
stamford told me that he would not take
any part in this agitation, but would vote
the Workingmen's ticket that he had
been very busly employed at Sacramento
in buying up members Of the Legislature,
which operation requires all the money he
can make on his railroad. Stanford says
he is sick and tired Of this bribery bust
ness, and willing to accept any change
for the better which might occur, and that
if we could only convince him that cheap
Chinese labor is a curse he would dis
charge all of his Mongolians, and if he
does not we will force him to do so in
spite Of himself But if, on the contrary,
he admits that he has done wrong, and
promises to reform, why, we are willing
to forgive him for his past acts, and will
protect his interests IN the future. If,
however, he refuses to comply with our
wishes in this respect we will confscate
all his property" Stanford was asked to
contribute toward the expenses of the
Workingmen's agitation, "but he said

up the thieves" Kearney acknowledged
that Stanford was a much smarter man
than he though he was before he met him.
The following is very choice and very
characteristic remark "The day | vis-
tied the Capital l was afraid to go among
the legislative thieves with my purse in
my pocket, and left it at home" And
this blatherskite has "a large following.

THE BIRTH OF MOTHER SHGPToN.-
The so-cailed prophecy of Mother Ship
ton is one of the clever frauds perpetrated
a few years ago. In 1862 Charles Hind
ley, Of Brighton, Englan published
what he said was reprint of an old edi-
tion Of Mother Shipton's pieces, but has
since acknowledged that the Wonderful
Prophecy" and some other pieces in the
book were written by him at the time
This prophecy, which originally was
claimed to have been written in 1883 and
republished in 1911, was first wrought
out of the brain of Mr.. Hindley in 1862.
Who Mother Shipton really was is not
known. 1t is probable such a woman
lived about 1888, but nothing but tradi
lion is known of her. The prophecy is not
worth reprinting, as it runs the circuit of
the press every year or two Chicago

BELIEVERS IN cremation in Cincinnati
are busy in projecting a magnificent
cemetery in the suburbs of the city, and
there are others of more modest dimen-
sions contemplated in different parts of
the country. Whether these plans will
come to actual brick, mortar and COM
bustion or not, remains to be seen. There
can be no doubt, however, that as soon as
there is sufficient demand for furnaces
by dead Americans there will be sup
ply of them by the living. Burning the
dead is just as honest a way of turning
an honest penny as burying them, and
when it promises to pay as well, there will
be plenty of professional cremators.-

The SUCCESSFUL CANDIDATEs.-The
Sacramento Sunday Times of the 10th
instant has the following sketches of the
Workingmen's candidates who were sue
cessful in the late election;
Jabez E. Turner the nominee Of the
Sacramento Branch of the Workingmen's
party for the position of First Trustee, is
carpenter by trade and at present en-
ployed in the railroad shops, being fore
man in the cab construction department.
He is an Englishman by birth, about so
years OF age, and n man of family.

VICE president WHEELER was inter-
viewed at Pittsburgh, March Isl, by the
Telegraph on the Louisiana "persecu-
tions," and reported as saying: The
Southern people sympathize with the pro-
secutors, every one of them. Notwi;h-
standing the prosecution is a gross out
rage of justice. 1t can be nothing else to
convict man without even the pool
formaity of an indictment and drag him
to trial on an information; but4hey would
do the same to good many others. They
would convict John Sherman if they
caught him down there, or General Gar
field. The deed was wholly unjustifable
and in open violation ofa sacred leglsla-
tive promise that nothing Of the kind
occur. l did not wish to be interviewed
on some of the points you have mentioned,
as it looked like presumption in me to
give opinions on them; but | am perfect
ly free to say what think of the outrage
on General Andersen. General Ander-
son is as guiltless of the crime charged
against him as you are. We put full
faith in solemn resolution of the Legis-
lature. According to its plain meaning
they never once thought Of such an inter-
probation as is now put upon it,"

THE SACRAMENTO AND OAKLAND
ELECTIoNs.-The recen. municipal cleo
tions in the above cities have resulted in
victories for the Workingmen's candi-
dates. In Sacramento, where four tick
cts were in the field, 4, ,060 votes were cast,
being the largest municipal vote ever
polled in the city. The Kearney party
carried the Mayor by III majority over
the Republicans and by la over the
Democrats also the City Attorney by
373 over the Democrats and 454 over the
Republicans. The Republicans won the
Chief Of the Police by $50 over the Kear-
ney men /; also the Fire Commissioner
by 932 over the Kearney nominee.
In Oakland it was a square fight be-
tween the Workingmen and the Republi-
cans with the following result in MAORI
ties; Workingmen's candidates-An-
drus, for Mayor, 2l0; Clark, for Police
Judge, Is; Byrne, for City Attorney, 199;
Koob, tor City Justice, 45. Republican
NaiiuiNoCOS NNOeihSs AOl NibJ hdIsudl,
141 Campbell, for Superintendent of
Schools, 221.
So it will be seen that the Working
men have captured the most important
City Officers in both instances. "The
significant fact in connection with both
those elections" says the Chronicle, sis
that they have literally exterminated the
Democratic party in both cities. Next to
that in importance is the circumstance
that the lab Dor movement has defeated the
Republicans in the two strongest Repub-
lican municipalities of the State. -
Another significant fact is, in Sacramen-
to more particularly, that the succ essful
Workngmen are employees of the Great
Railroad Monopoly. Is it possible that
Stanford & Co., through the instrument
ality of the Workingmen. inter'd monop-
olizng all the offices Of the State 1t

A RECENT Belgian publication shows
that the actual population of the earth Is

ed between males and females. Every
year about 43, ,OOO, 900 die f, every day ST.
334 every hour, $3.50; every minute,
60. Therefore, there is death every Sec
ond. In civilized countries there are more
births than deaths, but the whole world
considered, the number of the former Is
about equal to that of the latter. More
neonle are born and die in the night time
than in the day, and, generally speaking,
low-sized men die before those OF tall

THE NEW DoLLAR.-The new Silver
Dollar, which Congress says is just as
good as any other dollar, is a much SUI
perior coin in appearance-not value
than the Trade Dollar. The following
description of the new coin is clipped
from an exchange: On the diverse side
is the head of the Goddess of Liberty,
with a wreath entwned in her hair, and
wearing cap, on which is inscribed the
word Liberty" The periphery or
circle consists of thirteen stars, repre-
senting the original States, and imme-
diately over the head is the motto, " T.
Puribus Unum," while at the bottom
is the date, 1878. On the reverse side
is an American eagle, with wings ex-
tended, and holding in his talons spears
and arrows, emblematic of defence.-
The eagle is surrounded by wreath,
and Immediately above the head is the
motto, " In God we Trust" Around
the periphery are the words "Unlted
States of America" At the bottom of
the coin are the words Zone Dollar"
and tho weight.

NEW HAMPsHIRE.-A Concord dis
patch, of March 18th, says /: The vote
in $50 towns and cities gives Prescott
Rep.) 29,342 Mexican Dem). 26,66O
and scattering 525. Last year the same
places gave Prescott 3O,329 and Marcy
1881, scattering 300. The Republican
net loss OF these places is 1880. 1t seems
certain that Prescott is elected Governor.
and that the Republicans will carry the
House and Senate and Council. The Re-
pub;cans claim Prescott's election by
2000, and the Democrats concede this by
1000 to 1900 majority. The Republicans
claim the House by not less than 80 ma
jority, which will probably not be far
from right. They also claim that they
have carried eight out Of twelve Senate
rial districts. OF the counties the Repub-
licans carry Rockingham, Straford,
Hillsborough and Sullivan, and the Dem
ocrats Belllnap, Carroll, Merrimack,
Grafton and Coos. Horace 4. Brown,
Republican, was elected Mayor of the
city to-day.
