Mr.. Hewitt declares that John Kelly has
"beeome as absolute dictator as was known
Ia the history OF Rome" Mr.. Kelly does
have his Own way to a pretty comfortable
extent but this statement of MIR. Hewitt 5,
calmly considered, seems open to the charge
of some slight exaSgeration. There were FeY-
eral dictators in Rome who had good deal
more to say about things than our dictator
has and they would have smiled Roman

Secretary EvartS's address at the CcOpcr In
stitute last night was a great speech to a
great audience. There was not an issue ot
fbe campaign. National or local, upon which
he did not express himself, and though all
Republicans will not 20 with him III his defence
of some of the policies Of the Administrn-
ton, all will admit the force and puRgency
of everything that he said and the truth Of
most Of it, What Mr.. Eyarts had 10 say,
however, upon the Southern question and
Civil Service Reform was hardly more
than incidental. The great features Of his
address were his earnest calculation Of
the necessity of obtaining control OF the
House of Representatives and retaining con-
troll of the Assembly, and his most felicitous
discussion OF the financial Issue. The clear
ness and cogency of his argument on
this latter point especially, was only
eonalled by the quaintncss and simplicity
Of his illustrations. Mr.. Evarts told the
story of the magician in the Ara
biau NIGHTS who paid for his meat in fiat
money. and the story of the Pope who prom
iscd faithful flock fiat crops, and by way Of
illustrating his own remark that when we
get fiat money, we must have " Hat trade,

in which to do it, many telling say

TO say now, that every Republican
should read the whole speech and dwell
specially upon the Secretary's plea for hard

and independent voter should read it, and
dwell specially upon his exbortatiOn 10 men

Professor Winchclrs address, delivered last
night at the Academy OF Music il striking
Protest against existing methods Of collegiate
education, made by Il distinguished COLLEGE
professor Coming from q iyceum talker or a
professional refOrmeT, the opinions contained
in the address would hardly have seemed
radical enough to attract attention; coming
from Professor Wimchell, they express tlt dis
satisfaction with antiquated theories Of educa-
ton which is felt nOi only by many who have
been sent out from the colleges without the
training fiat would best have fitted them foT
the everyday life of this century, tut by
many who are engaged in th. practical
work OF education, and ave pC1p,exed by
doubts of prevailing systems ThiriI they
cannot remove and cannot ignore. Professor
Winchcll argues from the fact that the ratio
of college graduates to the whole population is
diminishing, that a collegiate education seems
less necessary than it once did, and shows at
length why it has become, in his opinion, less
useful, comparatively, than it once was.

YEARS OF WASDERlNG.-The following little
story is telegraphed from Springfield. Ohio :
A rather remarkable chapter OF domestic
history hes just come to lightin this city.
Years ago John Garrison, then student.
afterwards minister Of the gospel, mar
ried Miss Salie Christie. Both we're men,
bers of SpringGeld's first families. After
several years Of matrimonial experience
Garrison deserted his wife and young FAM
lily, and wandered all over the world. He
was missionary in India, China, and other
Asiatic countries. He INDUCED in every
line Of foreign novelty. he travelled every,
where that travel was known. He engaged
in almost every possible occupation, and
after eight years OF wandering returned to
his native land and located at MiddletoWn'
Ohio, where he soon amassed considerable
competency. A few weeks since ne deter
mined to come to this city and inquire after
his wife, supposing her either dead OF Oil,
vorced. He found her yet true to him, ana
the couple were retfnited, and are now liv-
ing happily at Middletown.

4 WASHINGTON COURTHOUSE, October 16.-
What God has joined together let no
man put asunder." This, as it started over
the telegraph wires this morning from this
Mace to reach its destination two hours
later at Georgetown. Col, 5000 miles
away, ended the most novel marriage on
record, Joining till death shall part Mr..
Wheeler G.. Ellis, at Georgetown, to Miss
Lima Sailers, at this town. The history OF
this strange proceedings, as related to your
correspondent by friend Oh the parties, Is
as follows Three years ago, wheeler
Ellis, a yosrng. poor, and narCt- "oIha1s
mechanic. left Washington fer the far west
to seek his fortune, leaving behind !oSefs
and lonely maiden to await his coming nj
some future time, when bis finances would
admit of marriage. This time had come tnls
week, but ON account or business engage
ments the young man found he could not
make the trip East. A friend arriving here
Yesterday from the West was commission
ed to take the young woman to Georgetown,
where the ceremony would be performed.
This arrangement, though entirely in ae-
cordance with the young lady7s wishes, did
not suit her mother, who so strenuousIy
objected to this way of the thing being done
that some other plan must be adopted or
the affair postponed. The girl had waited
long already, and nothing bTt distance
seemed to stand in the way. At the sug-
eestion OF Rev. George Carpenter, the
telegraph was called into service. This
Gained the old lady's objections, and the
preacher performed the ceremony: NO
cards. The only spectators were friend
OF two. From the time of the first mes
sage till the Young man answered the
solemn IL do . was something over four
hours The bride started to-day for a nome
and husband in the far West with the best
wishes of many friends. The parties are
well known here, and the affair caused
quite ripple Of excitement when it became
known. 1t is unequalled in strangeness IN

AN INTERESTING MINERAL SPECIMEN.-A
remarkable specimen of meteoric iron, more
like steel, has been brought in here from
the Mohave Desert. 1t weighs about a
pound, end carries free gold, OF which
nearly dollar appears on its surface. 1t is
not magnetic. and has successfully resisted
simple and compound baths OF acid. In
this respect it resembles specular iron, but
in no other. One OF its surfaces shows
fracture that reveals crystalline structure,
and its color is steel-eray tinsed with
yellow. 1t has defed the best cold chlsels
in the blacksmith-shop, and has not broken
or Clipped under heavy blows. II its COM
position can be initiated there will be pro-
duced the hardest and toughest alloy
known.-Y Yuma (Cal) Sentinel, September
