II is stated that the author of sundry songs viz:
"AIn't You Awful Pm the Governors Only SON.
and al Have TO Mind the Baby made an attempt
70 commit suicIde in this city last Sunday evening
by blowing out his brains. The police were sum
moned, and after a close clinical examination, the
conclusion was reached that the bard took good
care not to do HIMSELF much personal injury. IL is to
be feared that the more sensible. might say sensi
tive portion of the public will hear with regret that
this modern scald is recovering, and will probably
write more songs OF the same dreadful description.
In Justice to the author of "Ain't You Awful" It
ought to DO said that he is not the author of "My
Crandfather's Clock" ballad the chanting Of
which if not forbidden by a special statute, may
increase the number of lunatics If not Of suicides
considerably.

One week ago last Sunday a fear
fultornado passed over northwestern
Iowa. The cyclone was first dis
covered at Sioux City about three
O'Clock in the afternoon, travelling
in northeasterly direction. Trees
were torn up by the roots in the
timber belt along the Missouri river,
and fences and houses in IFS track
were demolished. It took up and
carried for considerable distances
horses, colts, and cattle. Near Ona-
wa a man was driving along the
road when the storm struck him.
The wagon, horses and man were
lifted twenty feet in the air, carried
several rods and put down again,
without particle Of damage being
done to anything. Pieces Of house.
hold furniture were carried for miles.
The track Of the tornado being lite
rally strewn with debris. In the
Griffith neighborhood it IS reported
that four were killed and about 30
wounded. The damage to property
was great, and it is a wonder that
no more people were killed.

The European situation remains
unchanged, and the. complications
between Russia and England or no
nearer to a settlement, as far as ap-
peal ances indicate, than they were
one month ago. England still con-
tinues her war preparations although
the Russians seem to be more peace
ably inclined. It IS thought that the
British ministry is simply determ-
ined to exhaust Russia's resources
without an actual confict calculat-
ing that, unable long to bear the
strain Of maintaining her armies IN
Turkey, or to repress the Impotence
Of her allies, Russia will thus be
compelled to sacrifice the most she
has gained by war and surrender
Turkey and its provinces to the con-
troll Of English instead Of Russian
influences.

SAN. FRANCISCO, April 25.-In
this city, recently sums Of Green.
backs have been purch ased for gold
coin at premium Of Fl cents on
every $1,000 IN notes. Secretary
Sherman, wishing to transfer some.
currency exchange to the East with :,
out disturbing the volume Of green,
backs in San Francisco, drew checks
upon himself in sums Of IS, 600 and
$4,000, payable in New York.
These checks were forwarded to Sub,
Treasurer Sherman Of this. city.
Parties here wishing to remit cur
rency to the East, and finding it to
their advantage to use these checks
instead of purchasing drafts at the
bank, have taken their greenbacks
to the Office of the sub-treasurer-
and made the exchange, as the sub
treasurer could rot give out checks
for gold coin, and as greenbacks i'll
open market are for tie moment
quite scarce, small premium had
to be paid to secure them in sufh-
Gent quantity to cover checks
sought in exchange.

Stearns, the Republican candidate
for governor, was elected at the same
time by 458 majority. Upon a con-
test before the Democratic supreme
court, Stearns was counted out, and
Drew, his Democratic competitor,
counted in BY 1876 majority The
same returns which threw out
Stearns and elected Drew gave the
State to Hayes BY 43 majority, and
that without the rejection of Clay
county, in which the Democratic
frauds were proven to exceed $50

those who read McLin's affidavit
that he nowhere swears that he is

committed for Hayes. He goes no
further than hearsay; certain per-
sons told him so and so, which is no
legal evidence for anything, and
would not be sufficient. in any court

that the Socialists Of Chicago have

For the past week Washington
has been excited over the confessions
Of u. D. Dennis and Samuel B. Nc
Lin, both Of Florida. The latter
was late secretary of the state Of
Florida and ex-oHficio member Of the
canvassing board whose decision
gave the vote of that State to Hayes.
The confessions of these two men is
to the effect that the returns of Ar
cher precinct No. 2, Alachua coun-
tt, Florida, were frar1dulently al
tered by themselves to the extent of
219 votes for the Hayes electors It
appears that the information In the
matter is only the same that was
given to the Democrats prior to the
action of the State canvassers, and
merely goes to prove that if any ras-
calhty was committed that they
were the scoundrels who perpetrated
it. They are both disappointed office
seekers, and The democrats, know
ing of their hostile feelings towards
the president, no doubt prompted
then to make the. confessions for
Democratic campaign material for
next fall. Mr. Hayes holds his Of
fee by the most mpregnable title Of
any American president, and can
not be effected by any such confess
sions. Election Supervisor Bell, Of
Florida, who is mentio toned by McLin
as having made a confession, denies
that he has done SO, and says there
were no such frauds as McLin alleg-
