Easter Daf.

The services at the numerous churches
throughout the city were of a particularly in
teresting character and the congregations
we're unusually large. The children's SER
vice at st. Marks in the evening was most
beautiful one, both in its spectacular aspect
and for the delightful infantile voices which
joined in the sweet strains of melody. The
morning service at this church was also of
an impressive character. The church was
splendidly decoraj led with exotics in e1quis-
itely tasteful AMI appropriate devices, and
the singing, for once in the church's history,
was passably good. Mr.. Wakes solo was
particularly we'll rendered. The Rev. DR..
Corbitt preached an eloquent sermon upon
the resurrection.
The Universalist church was perfect
paradise of flowers, ferns and evergreens,
and the service of song and praise had an
air of joyousness and festivity we'll in keep
ing with the season.
Plymouth church also excelled in floral
decorations and the elaboratensss of deco
rative devices.
Perhaps at no time have the churches
been so we'll and SO generally decorated for
the Easter festival as they were yesterday,
and on no Easter day for years have the con-
gregations been so large.

ACCORDING to the Washington correspond
ents of Republican papers, the Democrats in
Congress are badly divided upon the fnan-
cial and other questions. In fact the party
is "all split up" has been for months past,
and the breach is daily growing wider, &C
cording to those fellows. While we have
not the temerity to doubt the entire truthful
ness of those statements, it strikes us as a
little strange, as it also does the reading and
thinking public, that whenever party meas
ure is brought to the crucial test of a vote
the party in Congress should stand together
as one man. Ordinarily such spectacle,
and it is one now seen daily in Congress,
would not be considered as An evidence that
the party was divided by unreooncilable
views of policy, but as applied to the Demo-
Gratis it must have that significance or the
Republican correspondents would not make
the statements they do.

The Chicago Times sounds the new gos-
pei of murder trials in these latter days as
follows:
The trial of Mamie Stevens, for getting
killed by her husband, was not completed yes
terday. Several witnesses for the unfortu-
nate husband were called, and the lawyers in
formed the jury of some things that might be
testified, but the other side objected, aud the
matter will be argued to-day.
While some may regard this as satirical, it
Is fully in accord with the spirit of the age.
It has become a crime to be murdered and
martyrdom to be prosecuted for committing
such deed. Such, however, would be the
supposition from perusal of the reports of
the trials that are taking place all over the
country daily.

TREASURY CERTIFICATES.

The treasury certificates, authorized by
Congress at it's last session, are now in gen.
eral circulation. At least they are in gen
eral demand and have been largely pur-
chased by persons who are anxious to make
investments in small amounts. It is re-
ported from Washington that the subscrip-
tons have amounted, since the first of the
current month, to about three hundred
thousand dollars q day. The certificates are
on sale ut all first class postoffices and at all
national banks in the country. They bear
interest and are exchangeable on demand for
four per cent. bonds in sums of fifty dollars
or any multiple of that amount. The in
terest is payable, however, only on the trans
fer of the certificates into bonds, and while
the certificates will no doubt pass current in
ordinary commercial transactions, they will
be no better than greenbacks or national
bank notes, but as investments they will be
far better.
Few workingmen cannot afford to lay by
ten dollar bill once month. If he places
that saving into certificate of the United
States, he could, every five months, turn his
certificates into bond, and draw interest
upon it pro rata from the date of his first
Investment. The bulk of the subscriptions
for these certificates have come from the
cities of New York, Boston, and Chicago,
where the savings bank system has been most
shamefully abused, and this fact indicates
the distrust that the people of these cities
feel in the institutions mentioned. In most
cities nearly all classes of Investments are in
secure, and in looking around for bet
ter security the bonds of the govern
ment have, of course, come
to the front. The success of the four per
cent. loan is due to this fact more than to
any other, and the success of this new loan,
which places every laboring man in position
to become bondholder, will be due to the
sauae fact. Every citizen desires to become
independent, and if he car only be assured
that his money is safe where he has the op-
portunity to place it, he will save it;
otherwise he will spend it..
By placing the investment in govern
ment bonds, within the reach of the hum
blest citizen, the government has laid the
foundation, not only for its own, but for
the peoples prosperity. He who has any
knowledge of human nature knows
that it is far easier for man to
lay by ten dollars month than fifty
dollars in five months, and an accumulation
once begun will not be apt to be invaded,
except in cases of sickness. The treasury
certificates are good thing for tho country
for this reason if for no other: they afford q
safe investment for persons of moderate
means who can save but few dollars in the
course of week, and no other device yet
suggested has been a sufficient guarantee.
We have little doubt but the issue of treas
ury certificates will prove success, for the
people, especially in eastern cities where
savings banks are insecure, require some in
vestment for their small savings.

! Between IL and O'Clock Saturday night
Police Berglund was surprised to see wo-
man running down Main street towards
where he stood. AS she came up to Frank
she let fly volley of German with surpris-
ing volubility, at. the same
time gesticulating wildly and rapidly
Frank being of Swedish extraction, was un-
able to understand her, but he succeeded in
ascertaining that there was something wrong.
The thoroughly puzzled officer led the wo.
man up to Chris Duschsler's and aroused
Chris, who speedily got at the facts of the
case. The woman proved to be Mrs. Louisa
Freberg, dressmaker on the corner of Third
and Chestnut streets. About IL O'Clock, as
she was sewing she heard some one at the
front door and shortly after the person asked
if the door was locked. She replied that il
was, and the fellow went around the house
and looked in the window and then went to
the back door. The thoroughly frightened
woman softly opened the front door and ran
down for the police. After relating hel
story, accompanied by Frank, she went back
to the house and went around the back way
The fellow had not discovered her absence
and was around at the front door. When
Frank made his appearance he started off on
the run, with the policeman after him.
Frank was unable to catch him, but fired
several shots, which took no effect. Mrs
Freberg described the man as about the
medium size, with dark features and no
beard; also, that he spoke very Frenchy, evil

THERE is not much comfort for the Repub-

Democrats carried the State by 22,520 ma

in the fall of 1878 the Republicans elected
their State ticket by 1854 majority. This
spring the Republicans of Cincinnati are
again successful by a small majority; and
this fall the Democrats, to keep up the or Ter
of the last two years, will sweep the State by
a good round majority.

No man knows better than the senior edi-

ton arrangement which he himself con-
ceived and in good part engineered through,
the Pioneer Press, it was solemnly agreed
should be made both IN letter and liz SPIRIT,

have been of incalcuable value to our city is

oils was comparatively unknown and un-
heard of throughout the State and

upon her own local papers; but since the
broad pages of the Pioneer Press wero
thrown widely open to proclaim her daily
life and history, she has become most favor
ably known throughout the whole country.
