Ia "Gay Mannering," Sir Walter
Seott tells how Harry Bertram, re.
turning TO the place or his birth from
which he had been abducted when
but three years old, was recognized
by his family resemblance. His old
teacher, the tenants on the estate,
all as soon as they saw him, " He
is the very image Of Godfrey Ber-
tram" He was welcomed as heir
of Ellangswan before any legal
proofs were given. because he had
the fern and features or the race
from which he sprang. It was 30 i'm
the ease OF Christians in the early
days. Men took knowledge OF the
apostles that they had been with Je.
sus and all the primitive believers
were easily recognized by their new
ness Of life. But it is not so i'm our
day. Many real Christians keep
their light under o bushel. There is
a sad want OF such fidelity to Christ,
and imitation Of him i'm our daily
lives as compels the world to recog-
nize us as his followers.

Judge Blatchford, of the United States
District Court, has given decision in
the suit of the United States against ex-
Gov. Samuel J. Tilden, to recover some
$50, 900 income tax, alleged to be due
the Government by the defendant. The
suit, it will be remembered, was brought
in the United States District Court when
Mr.. TiIden was the Democratic candidate
for President, and, it was alleged, was
only brought political purposes The
counsel for Mr.. Tilden set up a demur-
rer, and the case was argued at great
length. Judge Blatchford's decision is
quite lengthy, and cites innumerable
authorities, the principal of which are
the United States Supreme Courts de-
cisien in the Dollar Savings Bank case,
and the Rhode Island case, lately decid-
ed by the Supreme Court. He sustains
the defendants demurrer to the first
count in the complaint on the ground
that in the year covered by this count
Mr.. Tilden had made return of his in
come and paid the tax on such return.
plant he sustains the plaintiffs. the
United States, in their demurrer to the
answer of the defense, holding virtually
that the Government was not bound by
the action of the United States Assessor
as its agent, and that Mr.. Tilden was
required to make himself the return of
his income, which he had not done.
The case is now to proceed to trial by
jury on the question of the amount of
income of Mr.. Tilden during the years
in which he made no return himself In
three years, Mr.. Tilden allowed the
United States Assessor to make the re-
turn and paid the tax Oh such return,
together with the penalty of five per
cent; but, this, the court holds, was
not sufficient, as will be seen by the
decision above. II is more than proba-
BILE that Mr.. Tilden's counsel will ap-
peal the case to the United States Su-
preme Court.

OF Congressman Leonard's death in
Havana by yellow fever the other day
the Washington special to the Cincin-
natl gazette says: The cause of his
death will call attention TO hefact that
the medical officers of the Government
and of maritime ports near are appre-
hensive that owing to the unexception-
ally open winter, and almost complete
absence of frost in many sections, there
is great danger of the prevalence of yel-
low fever the coming season. The most
stringent measures to prevent this will
speedily be urged upon Congress. Rep
resentatives of Southern Boards of
Health are now here to call the attention
of Congress to this subject. 1t is pro-
posed to give the United Marine Hspital
Service more general control of quaran-
tine regulations. The Government is
officially advised of the prevalence 5ot'
yellow fever at Havanna and Rio janet
ro. On Monday of last week ship ar
rived at Baltimore wharf, having pass
ed the quarantine station in the night,
a number of seaman upon which had
been sick from yellow fever. The qua
rantine officers Immediately sent the
ship to quarantine. The spread of the
disease is not anticipated from the ar.
rival of that ship, but the Governments
officers think the fact of the existence
of the fever there should be sufficient
warning. There was also a report of
one case ia New YORK last week.
