Mr.. DURING, a German surgeon
living in Williamsburg, reported at

lieves she had been enticed away by
man who had accompanied her as
a friend. Mr.. During had estab-
lished himself in business here and
sent for his family. She sold the
property and arrived in New York
on the ID of September, accompa-
MED by a man named Herman Bar

THE contract signed yesterday by
the Baltimore IL Ohio, Reading e.
New Jersey Central railroads -coin-
pletes another through line between
Chicago and New York. The Bal
timore & Ohio have been for num-
Der of years past restrained from
making eastern connections at Phil
adelphia with the Reading road
which connects near Trenton on the
Delaware with the New Jersey Cen
trail. A favorable decision having
removed these obstacles, the Balti-
more Il Ohio will now be enabled to
use the magnificent road bed and
terminal facilities of the latter road
giving them through connections
from Chicago to the foot of Liberty
street in New York. The new line
though somewhat longer than the
other routes will make equally rapid
time and will compete for first-class
and emigrant traffic with the Erie,
Pennsylvania and New York Cen
tral. 1t is intimated that break in
passenger rates will speedily result
from the increased competiti on
Omaha Bee.

RUMoRs at Paris on the Goth say
that another Nihilist conspiracy,
even more terrible and more care
fully organized than any of the plots
heretofore discovered, is afoat there,
which may, if executed, cost the
Gar and many innocent people their
lives. The Car has lost much of his
popularity since his morganatic
marriage. A later dispatch from
Paris to the London Telegraph says
that there is an unconfirmed report
of another attempt on the life of the
Gar, and that he has been fatally
wounded.

WHAT an enormous expense to
the people is the figure-head of the
government in England, known as
the royal family, and of what earth
ly use are they, so far as the legiti-
mate functions of government are
concerned The queen has applied
to Gladstone to have him ask Par
lament for grant of 100000, to
enable the Prince of Wales 10 pay
some of his more pressing debts,
and add $4,000 to his salary. He
already has an allowance OF 100000
year as salary, besides an annual
income of $350,000 from property in
Cornwall; the Princess has an al
lowance of $4,000. In the face of
all this 100000 year for the sup
port of this branch of the royal
family the august Queen begs "the
powers that be" to come down with
another 100000. Gladstone is re-
ported as firmly refusing to ask
Parliament, and suggesting that it
would be much more becoming in
the Queen to help her son out of
her own enormous income, which is
some $3,OOO,0OO a year.

IT is stated that bill will be early
introduced into the next congress
to abolish what is known as the
mint furnace of the treasury de-
partment, and transfer that which
pertains 10 coinage to the treasury
of the United States where it prop
erly belongs. While congress is
providing for the coinage, it might
with propriety anticipate the green
back question, and give it a thor
ough investigation, and get ready
by proper legislation to provide on
the part of the government a paper
currency, in the shape of green
backs, which the people very much
need and will in few years imper-
atively demand. 1t should not be
delayed until the expiration of the
present banking system, and then be
compelled to engage in the work
while fearful financial crisis bro't
about by a variety of causes, mostly
by the conflict of interested opin-
ions as to what system would be
the best. The people will demand
that the government shall issue and
be responsible for all paper money
put in circulation, and if any num-
ber of citizens desire to engage in
the business of banking let them
have the pleasure of banking on
government money in the shape of
greenbacks for which the govern
ment is responsible.
