HUNTING FOR THE CAUSE.

Hendrck B. Wright of Wilkesbarre, Pa. ,
who is engineering the Congressional Com
mittee and its children and friends on an ex-
cursion to the Bay, to find out why labor is
depressed, is a stout, grey headed, handsome
man, whose brains continually get into his
stomach, for they are scarce in his cranium
He is one of those fussy, pompous fellows
who imagines that he must do something to
earn his money, and hence the present Com
mittee. He means well en- ough but he will
never count the cost of his useless iaunt, or
how much labor could be furnished, or how
many poor families settled on small farms
and be made producers, by the money spent
on such sham trip. 1t is curious that the
causes of no evil can be found any where ex
cept on the P,cific Coast 1t is considerable
on the part of the various causes to locate III
such pleasant climate but they may be
found under the shadow of the Big Trees,
and the ma jestic wonders of the Yosemite,
and all along the beautiful southern Coast,
and even in the sumptuous parlors of the
Pa'ace and Baldwin, and there Hendrick is
OH his way to find them, and the result will
be, work for Congressional printers, and
waste paper for small grocers.
But Hendrick is "A jolly old boy, with
whom we have drank many bottle of claret
and played many game of billiards at the
Wyoming Valley House. His Committee is
quite as useful AS the rest and will result in
the same wsy-a long report, long bill, and
q nice picnic.

FRENCH DUELs.-Paul de Cassaznac has
done more to make himself notorious, and
the Code ridiculous, than laws or moralists
have ever accomplished; in fact de Cassagnae
is the Don Quixote of the duello. A French
duel reminds us of David's picture of Ma
poleon crossing the Alps on a Evolutionary
French horse, poised on his hind legs on one
of the steepest passes of the Simplon, and
looking like the statue of Jackson in the
grounds of the White House; or the we'll
known caricature of the two frogs engaged
with pair of fois; it is simply freak of
the imagination, and in this foolish pastime,
Mr.. Frank Oakley, late Consular Attache,

GENERAL ALFRED SULLY.-rhe Stute JOmt-
nal reproduces the foolish yarn from the
Yankton Herald, about General Sully's In
dian daughter, and valuable estate of sew
eral hundred thousand dollars in Philadelp ha,
inherited from his father The facts are these
Alfred Sully has helped nearly all his life to
support his father, Thomas Sully the artist,
and has been married twice, but neither time
to squaw, and his last wife with her two
children were at his death bed. Thomas
Sully's only property, left to a daughter who
had been his companion for years, and his
widowed sister, Mrs. barley, consisted of
personal property principally works of art,
and for years before his death the city of
Philadelphia allowed him to live rent free in
Q house belonging to the Girard estate because
he was old and poor. We write from person
al knowledge of all the facts, as well as the
parties concerned, and trust that the story of
that lying Yankton Surveyor, will be allowed
to sleep. Powning must have had it on his
hook for the last three months.

THERE is a lively little war going on in the
Lead fumes district, between the Richmond
and Eureka Consolidated companies on one
hand, and the Coal burners on the other. The
Coal burners have erected a Union, and re-
fuse to deliver, or allow any outsiders to de-
liver, charcoal under thirty cents per bushel,
which the Others refuse to pay. The amount
consumed annually by the two companies, is
enormous, but it is very certain that the coal
burners have never become rich on their
contracts. The present strike will make ex-
pense for the county but the corporations
will win as usual

w is one fingerbar and two knives for
moving, and one tingerbar aud sickle for
rcaping, besides extra sections and guards
with rivetS for repairs.
Less than five minutes will change the
Excelsior from a Reaper with the reaper
attachment to Il Mower with the mower
attachment; in either case it is perfect
machine, and rs such il stands unchal-
lenged before the world. 1t is perfect
mower, reaper or a combined machine.
The rcaping attachment is either drop
per, sclf-rake or both, making perfect
machine in either form. 1t is made en-
Iirely of iron and steel, except the tongue
and lift lever; it also has separate lever
for fitting the points of the fingers or
guards up or down both in rcaping or
moving; it also has an adjuStible reel
which can be raised or lowered by lever
whilst the machine is cutting.
y : Simplicity of Construction is indie
ative of efficiency and also marks the ge-
MUS of the inventor, We take pleasure in
asserting that one person can successfully
operate the Excelsior, and this may be
done by boy or an aged man toe feeble

such is the ease of management. Two
independent Drive Wheels, OF large di-
ametcr, lmpart greater power and cause
the machine To run easier on uneven
ground, and this. and oar accurate and
beautiful proportioncd gearing, are the
main reasons why the Excelsior runs so
easily and lasts so long. The Excelsior
has the reputation OF being the lightest
draft machine in the country. The draft
has been tested iii different conditions of
grass and uneven ground at various times,
and is found to range from l50 To 200
