Ii prompt and decisive in his dealings,

THE CoTNA LOCOMOTIVE was lately
tested on the New York and New England
Railroad. and the results are considered
highly favorable. Under the new system
of combustion, there is no escape of smoke
or cinders from the smoke-stack, and
greater power is claimed to be evolved
under the same conditions han by locomo-
tives now in use.

1T is q great misfortune to nave n fretful
disposition 1t takes the fragrance out of
ones life. and leaves only weeds where q
cheerful disposition would cause flowers to
bloom. The habit of fretting is one that
grows rapidly unless it be sternly repressed
and the best way to overcome it is to try
always to look on the cheerful side of
things.

THE L. $. MARSHALSHIP.

At last the U. s. Marshalship question
is settled. Hon. b. F. Simpson, of Pao-
Ia, is the lucky man. He is at present a
member of the State Senate. He is one
of the leading lawyers of Kansas, and it
would seem to us that he can hardly af-
ford to give up lucrative practice to &C
cept that which bears with it at least a
most uncertain tenure-a Federal ap-
pointment. We always supposed, too,
that Mr.. Simpsons ambition Gf he had
any for office, took in another direction.
We never for a moment thought he
would accept favors from the appointing
power, but rather sought honors in that
line of promotion which IS "bossed" by
the people. fit had been announced
that hc was candidate for Governor or
U. S. Senator, we should not have been
surprised. We :hear it stated that he
may not accept the position now tender
ed him.
LATER.-Since writing the above the
information has been published that Mr..
Simpson will not accept the appoint
ment, and the matter is thus lett open
again.

EDITORS JOURNAL:-Those articles on
Manufacturing which appeared in the
last two numbers of the JOURNAL, inter-
est me as they do, or should, everyone
of our town. The new departure pro-
posed gives promise of future prosperity
for US. Let tho matter be fully discuss
ed !; the keeping of our money at home /;
trading with our own merchants and
patronizing our own mechanics would
do great deal in that direction. l am
neither tradesmen nor artisan, therefore
have no "ax to grind" but do like to
see a little money in circulation here,
instead OF sending it all away to aid IN
building up other towns to tho pulling
down of our own. Silver or greenbacks,
we will not object to either. Then never
could see any sense in farmers being
obliged to send away for al! their agri-
cultural implements, when it would be
better to have them manufactured at
home. The amount paid out and sent
to other states for these articles alone
are enormous. Wagons and all vehicles
can just as well be put up here as any
where else, and the money that goes to
pay for them will still be in circulation
in our own community, instead of some
other place. SO with almost everything
else, if we go on as We have been doing,
there can be no hope of building up
here. Onr course will rum any town.
As fast rs wo make dollar send 1t away
keep ourselves poor, then find fault
with everything at home and at the same
incorporating favorably of other places,
is pretty good course to pursue to kill
our town. that industry and enterprise
will build mp. Let us have more regar d
for our own interest. We hope to have
the matter, now it is up, fully ventilated
and look TO the citizens rs our organ to
speak for us on this as other subjects.

PASSAGE FTHE SILVER BILL,

The silver bill passed tho Senate at 3
o'clock A. NJ, Friday, after an all-night
debate over the same. The vote stood
4S for to q against. Some amendments
were adopted, but the bill passed about
the same as it came from tho Finance
committee. The bill now goes back to
the House for its action upon the amend
ments, which will undoubtedly be ap-
proved. We believe the President will
not use his veto power in this case.
Should he do so, however, the bill can
DO made law by passing it over his
head by two-thirds majority, and We
believe such majority in favor Of the
bill exists in Congress. The passage of
this bill will have an immediate benefic-
ial effect upon the business interests of
the country. Confidence will be restor-
ed and the distraction over tho finances
which has existed so long will almost
entirely disappear. We give below the
bill as it passed the Senate:
Be il enacted, ETC., That there shall be
coined at the several mInts of the United

The Western Rural, of Chicago, is rap
idly growing in popularity and influence,
for the enterprislng and aggressive spirit
it manifests. Its several departments
are full of interest and admirably adapt
cd to all the interests of tho Farm and
the Fireside. 1t advocates equal rights
to all classes, and strongly opposes the
encroachments of capital and the grind.
ing monopolies which tend to get foot
hold in our land. The summary of gen.
eral news and market reports is excel
lent. In fact, the Western Rural has as
sumed the vantage ground as being the
foremost of its kind in this country.
We are not surprised that its circula.
ton and influence are rapidly extending.

PEACE PROSPECTS.

1t would now seem, if any depend
ence at all can be placed upon the dis
patches, that peace will soon be made.
The news is that the British fleet has
been withdrawn to Mundrina Bay, 40
miles south of Constantlnople. The
Russians announce that they will not
occupy the Turkish capitol. All the
powers, including Russia, have agreed
to u congress at Baden Baden, in Ger
many. United States, as great mar
itime power, may. be invited TO par
ticipate therein. Baden Baden is chosen
because it is no great political center,
and diplomats may there undlsturbed
reason calmly over the situation.

How Men Dine on l.reat Occasions Mt the
White HOuSe

At State dinners and other ceremoni.
Gus occasions here there Is the strictest
observance of the rules Of etiquette as
regards the order of precedence. The
Secretary of State and his wife rank
next the President and wife and the
Vice-President, is unmarried. As Vice.
President Wheeler is . widower, the
two ladies Of highest rank among the
guests ut the dinner table on the Goth
were the wife of the Secretary Of State
and the wife of the senior Justice of the
United States Supreme Court; so these
two ladies sat on either side the Presi.
dent, the most honorable positions at
table for ladies. The two gentlemen Of
highest rank were the Vice President
and Secretary Evarts; SO the former sat
on Mrs. Hayes right and the latter on
her left. She went to the table with the
former.
To avoid confusion q small envelope
is handed every gentleman when he en-
tiers the cloak room before dinner on these
occasions. In this are two cards. One
has diagram of the table, with his own
name and that of the lady he will escort
to dinner written opposite the numbers
at the seats they are to occupy. On the
other card is the name of the lady he is
to escort.
There is always 8 little excitement:
about opening the envelopes of the same
description as the tremor Of expectation
which siezes one on opening . prize
package. And veil there may be, for
three hours is the usual duration Of .
White House State dinner, and TO be
bored for three hours is n joke, and the
little envelope contains the solution of
the problem each man has aaxiously
asked himself on his way to the scene OF
the feast: "Am to have an agreeable
partner, or mott"
