TIE most fiattering attention is now
paid to American affairs in Europe. The
Paris Gatllois OF the 9TH instant, gravely
announces that "on the 4th elections

The y. Y. Star epitomizes volume OF
mechanical philosophy in the few sem
fences following: The science OF me-
chanics draws its vitality from coal and
/ iron. Coal emancipates iron from its
crudeness and furnishes it with pOweras
an instrument of commerce. The union
of these two minerals has solved the
question OF production, and has rendered
/ distribution easy. The world is embar-
rassed only with the difficulty OF con-
sumption. Coal fashions iron and
/ drives the finished machine. The dirty
thing is the vehicle OF civilization. Iron
is an instrument; coal is cause. Iron
is an agent Of industry, and coal is
master power.
/ Mr. HAYES has been telling a CORE
spondent that the Potomac flats back OF
the White House are full of malaria, and
hopes that Congress will give its atten-
ton to the nuisance. The President
reminds ms of Il little story Mr.. Lincoln
used TO tell. A young gentleman had
made many vain endeavors to engage in
conversation with Il young lady with
/ whom he sat i'm car on the New jersey
Central road. Finally, as they APP
preached those historical plains, the
| Young man indicated them with nod
/ out of the window, and exclaimed:

TIE return OF Premier and General
Martinez Campos to Cuba is now re-
garded as probable. We thought II
would come to thrt. Campos is the
only man who has shown any ability
10 deal with Cuban affairs, and the

that with these Cuban fellows thrilling Is
unprofitable.-Ph Philadelphia North AD'er'-

TIE women who are deprived of the
ballot are not half so much concerned
about the situation as is Col lllgglnSon
and other gentleman Sympathlzers. As
an illustration it is said there are in
Worcester, Mass, twelve hundred

that city only one hundred have regis

ERRIxG Brother Keys war on the
lottery companies doing business with
the Postotlice Department is not ON
high moral grounds, rs may have been
supposed. 1t is charged that he Is try
inc to bull doze the capitalists OF the
Louisiana lottery companies into the
support Of the Republican ticket in that
state. The company has been power
behind the politics OF Louisiana Tor
several wears. Towards money has
been poured ont literally in making
tickets and carrying legislatures, and
Kellogg is endcavoring to force him mp
To his support in the present contest.
This is what the gossips say. II seems
rather singular, though, that Mr.. Key
should permit himself to be used IN tins
way by such sCalawag as Kellogg
