The Executive Committee comprises seiecio"

The shocking butche1y of three little emil
dren in Jersey City by their mother no'eu
among her neighbors for her afiecton ana
goodness to her family, but suddenly deprived
of reason by sickness, is one OF those dreaoiui
| and ipexnlicable events which seem to DEFY all
laws. human and divine The story is a most
pathetic one. Some light upon the possible
| copses Of the unhappy woman's madness, outside

tbe Youngest of these little children had been

Superintendent Dudley, of the Building
| Department, processes to be doubtful Whether
he has, really and finally, been indicted.
Probably his lncredullty on this point has as
appeared by this time. The first and second
counts in the first indictment charge him WIN

| Square Garden which made it dangerous to lie !;
the third charges him with permitting the
| annroyed plans and specifications for the cree
ton of a house TO be dIsregarded The second
indictment against him charges that ne accepted
a bride to influence his official action, ana an
indictment of Mr.. McGnnis, Chief OF the
Bureau of Inspection, charges him with ac-
cepting a bride which was also intended 10
| influence Mr. Dudley. Both OF these oincals
are Of course entitled TO suspension oil

The excitement in France caused by the eX-
ecution of the anli-Jesuit DEGREES seems 10 De on
the increase, and shows signs OF real agitation
At LYONS the Public Prosecutors recently re-
signed their posts as a protest against the de-
crees. When their successors entered the
! court TO take tho Oaths OF oillce
the members of the bar rose and left the
courtroom in body Other demonstrations
of similar character took place elsewhere.
On the other hand, there is consider
able agitation among Republicans in the
interior against religions orders besides the
MACE in the Chamber Of Deputies yesterday
upon this question. Mgr. Freppel. repre-
sentative OF the Jesuts, violently attacked the
Government, charging it with violations OF
domiciliary rights, and declaring that public
liberty would now become the issue OF cleo
tiops. The Minister OF the Interior i'll reply,
assumed all responsibility, and upheld the
law. No action was taken.
Mr.. Viewers letter of acceptance as the
Grcenback candidate for President, is an ADLER
document than Greenbackers usually emit,
and is speciously framed to catch votes
from both parties. 1t IS poor sort OF
tran. but there may be voters here
who will be influenced by Mr. Weaver's APP
meals for return to the Democracy Of Jeiler-
son and Jackson and the Republcanism OF
Abraham Lincoln and Thaddeus Stevens,
without stopping to reflect that Andrew
Jackson and Abraham Lincoln were men OF
very different sort, and that
man who is a Democrat and Republican at
the same time cannot be much Of either
Another interesting feature of the address Is
its comparative moderation 1t is true that
it demands the abolition of all banks
Of issue and the establishment of Gov
ernment currency only. wants the Weaver
soldiers bill passed. and favors paying the
National debt in silver; but all this Is
roaring as gently as the sucking dove
for Greenbackers who have in past
years howled themselves hoarse for downright
repudiation. There is the caution Of cunning
in this letter. And Mr.. Viewers an
nouncement that he will speak il
various parts of the country during
the canvass indicates On earnest cam
paign by the remnant of the Greenback party
in the hope that something may turn up a
the end of it.
