The New Senator from Louisiana.
Cincinnati Israehte.
He stands to-day the foremost Jew
in our country, and his co-religio-
nists can feel assured that not only
will no stain ever attach to him, but
that wherever are found purity of
official life, sterling integrity, and
spotless private character, there will
also be found the name of Hon. B.
F. Jonas, of Louisiana. As a mat.
ter of interest to the ladies, we might
add that what Mr.. Jonas will be in
the council of the nation, his beauti-
full wife will be in its social cirles.
Endowed by nature with superior
intellect, she is as charming in man
ner as she is lovely in form and fea.
ture. We. congratulate the Jewish
people in the good fortune Of having
two such worthy representatives at
the seat of government.

The Legislative committee sent to
inquire into the charges of cruelty
by the officers of the State Prison
towards inmates of that institution,
completed their labors last week.
It is the firm belief of the committee
that the charges are wholly unbound

Several of the convicts were ex-
amined on the witness stand, and
their testimony showed that they
were well treated by officers of the
institution.

An important bill was introduced
in the lower house of the Legislature
on Thursday the 18th inst. It is
entitled "a bill for an act to provide
for voluntary bankruptcy Of insol.
vent debtors, and for compulsory
proceedings against such debtors,
and for an equitable distribution OF
the property Of such debtors among
their creditors, and for a discharge
of such debtors from their debts, and
to prevent frauds upon and prefer.
ences among creditors. The docu.
ment is long one, covering more
than sixty pages Of legal cap, and
embracing fifty. seven sections.
This insolvency act is one in which
every business and professional man
is deeply concerned, and ought to be
considered carefully before it is Fl.
nally acted upon. Since the repeal
of the national bankrupt law a much
larger number of failures among
business men have occurred than
would have been the case had there
been a law providing for equal rights
among creditors. As things now
stand the creditor who first presents
his claim must be paid in full before
anything is allowed to others, con.
sequently those who come in last
are left out in the cold.
On account of this state of affairs,
the merchant who becomes indebted
to any extent is constantly watched
by his creditors, as each is afraid
that another will bring in his claims
first. Were all creditors certain Of
being treated alike, they would gen
orally waitin order to take time and
pains to find out the circumstances
Of the debtor, and to help him by
extensions of time and additional
credit if these would be likely to put
him on his feet again.

Mankato Review: Congress has
been memorialized to prohibit the

Dread OF the plague, which has
appeared on the eastern borders of
Europe, is extending in every d.
rection. Black Sea vessels are re.
fused admission into Egyptian ports.
Servia has formed a partial Gordon
on her Turkish frontiers. The Ital.
ian government has ordered twenty
days quarantine against vessels from
eastern Mediterranean ports. The
British privy council has ordered a
careful inspection of bills. of health
and of crews and passengers Of ves-
sells arriving from the Black Sea.
And the president of the board of
health at Rome, speaking yesterday
in the Italian chamber Of deputies,
predicted that if the plague penetrat.
ed Europe it would destroy third
of the population.
The doctors can do nothing to
hinder its progress. It's duration is
short. the victim seldom living over
an hour after being attacked, and
dying in great agony the body being
covered with black spots and swell
ings, and the patient at the same
time experiencing violent, internal
pains and vomiting. Austria and
Germany have already arranged to
stop Russian Merchandise on the
frontier or submit it to powerful dis
infectants. It is said that upon
good cause for alarm, the British
government will issue Orders in
Council, to restrain the introduction
of Russian grain, or to prohibit the
same entirely. Although the wheat
itself may be free from the plague
germ, the past has proved that it
may be carried in the vessels, and
in the clothing or about the persons
of sailors who sail from an infected
harbor, and the British and French
governments will not be slow to
recognize this danger. Should the
plaque continue it will have a great
effect upon commercial relations of
large part of Europe, and it's infu.
ence will also be extended to this
country. Its effect upon our bread.
stuff markets will be about the same
as though a war between Russia and
England existed. Since the than
set in the number of p]ague.stricken
at Soaritzin and other places has
LARGELY increased.
During the fourteenth century
the same dreadful plague swept over
Europe and in some places almost
depopulated the districts so afflicted.

Northern road the other day. A
great big chap, almost able to throw
a carload of lumber off the track,

cooking for the hands ill saw-mill,
and after week acquaintance they
were married. The boys around
the mill lent William three calico
shirts, a dress coat and pair Of
white pants, and Clipped in purse
f$20, and the couple started for
Detroit on a bridal tour within an
hour after being married.
This ere lady" explained Will
lam, as the conductor came along
Tor tickets, "are my bride. Just
spliced ffty-six minutes ago. Cost
81. but durn the cost She's a lily
Of the valley, Mary IS AM I'm
the right bower in q new pack OF
keards; conductor, salute the BRIDE"
The conductor hesitated. The
widow had freckles and wrinkles
and a turn-up nose, and kissing
the bride was no great satisfaction,
"Conductor, salute the bride, or
look out for tornadoes," continued
William, as he rose up and shed his
coat.
The conductor sa-Iuted. 1t was
the best thing he could do just then.
II never did put On style before, >,
mut.ered William but I'm bound
to see this thing through if I have to
fight all Michigan. These ere pass
engers has got to come to the chalk,
they has?''
The car was full. William
walked down the aisle, waved his
hand to command attention, and
said:
Give just been married; over
there sots the bride. Anybody who
wants to salute the bride KIN do SC
now. Anybody who don't want tc
will have cause to believe that tree
fell on him"
One by one the men walked up
and kissed the widow, until only one
was left. lie was asleep, William
reached over and lifted him into g
sitting position at one movement
and commanded:
car ye goin' to dust over thai
an kiss the bride?"
''Blarst your bride, and you too,
growled the passenger.
William drew him over the bacl
Of the seat, laid him down in th'
aisle, tied his legs in a knot, anc
was making a bundle of him just 0
size to 60 through the window
when the man caved and went ovel
and saluted.
"Now, then," said William, as h
put on his coat, "this bridal towe1
will be resumed as usual, and i
Mary and me squeeze hands or ge
to laying on each others shoulder
l shall demand who laughed abou
it, an I'll make him e-magine tina
I'm hull boom full of the bigges

down on the next, rise. Now
Mary, hitch along, an let me git
my arm around ye."
