No Mail This MORNING.

The residents of this city failed to re-
ceive their mail this morning, from Phila-
delphia, owing to the fact that the New
York train, which carries the mail failed
to make connections at Grey's Ferry with
the Baltimore mail south reaching this
city at $50. The residents along the line
of the Delaware r. r., will not receive
their mail of to-day until tomorrow.
This certainly is great inconvenience and
should be remedied by the government.

TIE PUBLIC PRINTING.

Owing to the loose manner in which
the printing of public documents is
managed; and the costly biuding of
official reports, &C., ordered by the exc
cutive officers Of the government, the
expenses of the government printing
office have been very largely augmented.
In the sundry civil bill, the considera-
ton of which was commenced by the
House of Representatives to-day, they
are some thirty sections regulating this
whole subject, reducing the number and
character # the documents to be printed,
and restricting the cost of the binding SO
as to do away with the expensive imports

tions will, it is stated, result in saving
of at least 100000 per annum.

Gen. Sherman's Domestic Troubles,

Gen. Sherman has not gone out into
New Mexico, With the border troubles III
his mind, but has sought novelty, and
the excitement of travelling as a distrac-
ton. Within the last six months Gen.
Sherman has grown old very fast. The
attempt to reduce the army wore upon
him more than one would suppose 1t
would, but the crushing weight was the
departure of his favoIite son for Eu-
ropeen monastery. Most people do not
know that the General is rs much of a
foe to Catholicism as his wife is friend,
and the reason that he lives apart from
his family-he in Washington and they
in st. Louis-is that he will not tolerate
the presence of a priest under the same
roof with him.
Mrs. Sherman is the most ardent and
active lay worker that the Pope has in
America; she stands high in the counsels
of the church, both at home and abroad;
and her name is as familiar in Rome as
the name of st. Agatha, although she
was never there in her life. She is the
trustee in this country of Peters
pence -the offerings of devout Catho-
lies to the Pope's private treasury-and,
shortly before he died, on the occasion
of the anniversary of his Pontifcate, the
late Plus TX. sent her rosary of solid
gold, with a fragment of "the true
cross" set in the crucifix as gem.
On the contrary, Gen. Sherman hates
priest with profound hatred; but
Mrs Sherman was Catholic before he
married her-the Ewings are all Ctaho-
lics-and, while his married life has al
ways been happy one, he has never
been able to abide with priest, and
Mrs. Sherman has never been able to
abide without one.
Thomas Ewing Sherman, the oldest
son, was intended by the General for
the bar, and he was educated at George
town College, Catholic institution,
chosen by Mrs. Sherman, and afterward
at the Yale Law School, an institution
chosen by his father. After he gradu-
ated at Yale, he went to his mothers
house In st. Louis, and entered the law
office of the Hon. Samuel Reber. The |
second son Gen. Sherman wants to make |
a soldier of, and the boy, now at the
age of ii years, is we'll read in the whole |
library of military history, and can de-
scribe in detail all the military opera
tions of the war. There are but two |
sons, and Mrs. Sherman had fixed her |
mothers heart on having one of them
for the church. To any suggestion of
this he would not listen, and she knew
him we'll enough to realize that an ar
gument on the subject would do no
good. But, while the eldest son has had
his eyes on his law-books, his mother
has been inspiring in him an ambition
to distinguish himself in the priesthood,
and not until his conviction was formed,
and his plans decided upon, did his
father have the slightest suspicion of a
change of intentions. When the decis-
ion was announced to him, Gen. Sher-
man is said to have groaned with sorrow,
and he has not since seen his wife or
son. = Washington Cor. Chicago Inter

An Old Maui Kills Three Snakes.

Old "Uncle" Brown is a resident o
Jackson county, Mo-, of long standing
and many acquaintances. He lives
about two miles south of Rosedale, and
although 78 years old is as active as O
man of so. He was on Tuesday walk
ing about his farm when, in making his
way through some brush, he was startled
by the warning rattle of snake. Look
ing down, he saw not only one but three
large rattlesnakes, erect and ready to
strike. Mr.. Brown carried stout stick
in his hand, and whirled it once around
his head and then struck the foremost
RATHER such a swinging blow that he laid
him out on the spot, but before he could
again raise his hand the second snake
darted its fangs into the middle finger of
his left hand.
He then killed the second one in the
same manner, and the third glided be-
meath a sLeltering stone. The old man
was not to be baked in this way,
though, and he raised the stone with his
left hand, receiving another bite as he
did so, and killed the last one of the
deadly trio. Er1ff
Brown at once returned home. A
doctor prescribed an unlimited quantity
of whisky, and after about three pints
had been swallowed the dose began to
take effect and the patient was pro-
nounced out of danger.-St. Louis Re

Extraordinary Enterprise.

The proprietors OF the Western Steam To
bacco Works at Milwaukee. Wis, Messrs. b
Leidersdcrf and Henry NJ. Mendel, have dis
played energy and business capacity in the re
newal Of their great manufacturing business
destroyed by fire July 8, rarely witnessed even
in these progressive business times. Within
fifteen days after the fire they had established
an entire new mandatory for the production
OF their famous brands Of tobacco-such as
"Sweet Owen, Empire and " odd Abe fine
cut chewing, and "Nigger Hair" and "Rob
Roy smoking tobaccos-at their temporary
factory on East Water street. Their present ma
chinery is all new and of the latest patterns,
thus enabling them TO turn out even better goods
than ever before. The pluck and energy dis
played by Messrs. Leidersdorf & Mendel in thus
renewing their great business so soon, is some
thing that makes US feel proud Of as indicating
the character Of the business men of this coun-
try. Few firms could have so soon recuperated
from great disaster and be again running a
mammoth business within fifteen days. The
firm deserves great credit for its enterprise.

How High Can Men Live Z

Mr.. Weber states that in Thibet he
has lived for monthst oge her ut a height
of more than ID, 900 feet above the Level
of the sea, and that the result was as
follows: His pulse, at normsl heights
only sixty-three per minute, seldom fell
below 100 per minute during the, whole
time he was at that level His respira-
tons were often twice as numerous in
the minute as they are at ordinary lev
els. A run of 100 yards would quicken
both pulse and respiration more than
a run of 1000 yards at the sea level,
and the higher the level the greater the
difficulty of walking or running fast.
He crossed the shoulder of the Guria
Mandhata at height of some 20, 00O
feet, and found the greatest difficulty in
getting his breath quickly enough (; had
frequent and violent headaches, and
found that his native guides and com
paniohs suffered much more even than
he did.-London Spectator.

Physical Effects OF Mental Emotion.

George Grokatchi, Polish soldier,
deserted from his regimentin the harvest
of the year 1877. He was discovered a
few days after drinking and making
merry in an ale house. The moment he
was apprehended he was 80 much terri
fed that he gave loud shrek, and was
Immediately deprived of the power of
speech. When brought to a court-mar-
tial, it was impossible to make him ar
ticulate word; nay, he became as i'm
movable as a statue, and appeared total
ly unconscious of what was going for
ward. In the prison to which he was
conducted he neither ate or drank. The
officers and priests first threatened him,
and afterward endeavored to soothe and
console him, but all their efforts were in
vain. He remained senseless and i'm
movable. His irons were struck off, and
he was taken out of prison, but he did
not move. Twenty days and nights
were passed in this way, and be gradu-
ally sank and died.

A Neat SWindle.

A new and successful mode of swim
ding has just been developed in Clarion
county, Pa. A notion peddler named
Goodman dreamed that he had found a
hidden treasure, and prevailed on a
farmer named Logue to accompany him
to the spot. The peddler pointed out a
large oak as the one he saw in his vision.
1t was apparently sound'at the butt, but,
about twenty feet up, limb had been
broken off. Mr.. Logue did not feel like
humoring what he supposed to be a SUI
perstitious whim, but Goodman had
such confidence in his vision that he
offered MIR. Logue one-half of the spoils
if he would help him cut down the tree.
He did SO. When the tree fell there
was rattle of coins near where the
limb had been broken off, and a small
hollow was found. Ensconsed therein
were loads of silver. Both seemed to
be wild with delight, and, on counting
up, found the pile amounted to So, 900.
The peddler expressed his unwillingness
to carry aroudd so much silver in his
pocket, and inquired where he would
be likely to get greenbacks for his share.
Mr.. Logue having considerable money
in the house Immediately gave Good
man $4,000 in paper money and took
charge of the entire bulk of silver The
peddler went off and has not since been
heard from. On endeavoring to pass
some of the silver it was found to be a
counterfeit of the poorest kind. Mr..
Logue is 81, 500 out, and the story ends.
1t was clever job of a gang of counter
letters which probably infests that
county.
