The ultimate possibility of newspaper
premiums seems to be reached, this year,
BY the New York Tribune. When it gave
away Webster'S unabridged quarto picto-
rial dictionary TO single five years subscri-
bers to its Weekly, we thought it had gone
10 the utmost limit. But it placed $4,000
of these dictionaries-the biggest sale ever
heard of-and is now starting out on some
thing yet more surprising. To single
tive years subscriber, who merely adds
80 to the regular remittance for five years
to its Weekly (makng in all Sl2). il sends
as II gift full set of Chambers Encyclo.
pee liza, the latest edition, with American
additions, in twenty volumes, containing
in all, by printers measurement, IL per

don't know how the thing is done, but
what the Tribune has accomplished here.

it. We print its prospectus elsewhere,

Bayard claims a majority in the Senate
for abrogating the legal tender character
of greenbacks.
The value of land is so depressed in
Ireland that on November 9Th. when seven
estates were offered for sale, but four
were taken, while for two there was no
bid.
Hendricks and his clique at Washington
want congress 10 90 slow on financial
questions. but 10 hang TO the folly of the
extra session in insisting upon no appro-
priations for troops and marshals at the
polls.
There are rumors that the Mexicans
want Gen Butler to 90 down there and he
dictator. He would be good one, his
New Orleans administration giving surety
that he would make refractory "Greasers'
walk straight in way they never dream
ell Of Gen, Butler has however not given
up any of his various residences in Mlssa-
chusetts yet, so Mexico and Massachusetts,
may mourn together.
Secretary Sherman expresses himself as
being opposed to the proposed plan Of
wiping out the greenbacks, but believes
that system of treasury notes, substan-
TALLY the same as we have now, the best
thing for the country. 1t would be unwise
in his opinion, to agitate the question of
aboishing the national bank circulation in
advance of the expiration Of the bank
charters. which would not begin until
1888. We already have something like
the proposed system, he says, because the
treasury hold n good deal more coin than
it owes, and such coin is represented by
paper in circulation.
The opening of ftc-places in the hall o.
representatives at Washington recalls a
~ famous melee near the beginning of the
century in the House. Mr.. Griswold, Il
federalist of Connecticut and Matthew
Lyon, IL Vermont democrat, or republican
rs tley were then called. hui hld per-
sonal encounter. one splitting in the others
face. Griswold entered the House, one
day, and attempted to cane Lyon in his
seat, when the latter grabbed the congress
sional tongs and knocked him down ant
the Two had to be pulled apart.
CONGRESS Very little has been done
as yet in either house. Resolutions have
been introduced In both Senate and House
declaring in substance that it is not best
to tinker with the currency. Senator
Carpenter offered the Senate resolution
and the republicans generally favor it.
Senator Morrill, is not in favor of It's pass
age as he believes the greenbaoks should
cease to be legal tender. Senator Bayard
has made move to have their legal tender
quality taken away. That would be well
enough but we still believe in the policy of
no tinkering--reason why, there is more
chance for bad legislation than good in
this congress and i: would be relief to
business men to know the finances are not
TO be disturbed.

THE TREATMENT OF CRIMINALs.-The
recent sensation at Milwaukee, Wis,
concerning the alleged mismanagoment of
the house of correction there has led to
the creation Of an earnest popular sen.
timent in favor Of more generous and
merciful treatment of criminals. The reso-
lutions adopted may with profit be con-
sidered by the authorities of such institu-
tions in other states. for they hold that
public duty and the public interest de.
mand that the treatment of criminals shall
aim, not only at the punishment of
crime, but still more ut reformation !;
that the policy of deriving revenue from
the labor of ccnvicts should in all cases be
kept strictly subservient to the higher
purpose of reformation; that the system
of placing together all classes and ages of
criminals is wrong, and we believe it the
duty of the city, at whatever cost, to pro-
vide. for the separate care of persons
convicted of light misdemeanors.or young
offenders, and more hardened criminals
and those convicted of aggravated crimes;
that proper treatment does not involve
either the exercise of cruelty or the use Of
abusive language"
