A Cat Defends a Pet Dog.

The residents on Broadway, says the
Norwich Bulletin, were amused to see
tortoise shell cat take the part of black
and tan dog on Broadway the other day.
They are both pets in the same family,
but the dog has never abandoned his
curish ways, but INDUCES in snarling at
man and beast as they pass his masters
door. Yesterday he ran out and snarled
at big black dog passing by and the
animal resented it in beastly manner,
picking "black and tan " up and rolling
him in the dust, while he yelled with all
his might. While this was going on
"tortoise shell" ran out and mounted
the big black dog, much as monkey
gets upon pony in circus, and began
to scratch. The big dog dropped his
little victim to the earth, and his tail
between his legs at the same time, and
started with cry for other fields. She
chung to him until he was well started
and then jumped to the ground, while
the big dog kept ON out of sight, never
deigning to look around or to elevate his
caudal appendage to its natural position.

A PARTISAN TRAGEDY.
The suicide of mrs. Annie wetmOl

Paris Cor. New York Herald.
The suicide of Mrs. Annie Wetmore,
which took place at the residence of
Lady Albert Pelham Clinton, at No. II
Rue Chateaubriand at 3 o'clock yester-
day, has created a painful sensation
among the English and American resi-
dents here. 1t is the old story of mis-
placed affection, abandonment and de-
pair. Some two or three years ago the
deceased lady met the Marquis of
Anglesea, then Lord Henry Paget. She
was a handsome and attractive woman.
and it is said that she abandoned her
husband and only child under the i'm
preston, If she could get divorce, that
Paget would marry her. However this
may be, it is certain the relations of the
parties were of the most intimate char
acter, and the friends of Mrs. Wetmore
were led to believe that prom
Use of marriage really existed,
and that, the divorce having
been obtained, she would soon
become Lady Anglesea, Lord Henry
Paget having succeeded to the title.
The unfortunate lady's hopes were sud-
denly blasted, however, by the publica-
ton of the marriage of his Lordship to
the Hon. Mrs. Wadhouse, widow of
Lord Kimberly's second son, and the
daughter of Mrs. Preston King, of Geor-
gla. The shock to Mrs. Wetmore was
terrible, and her friends thought she
would lose her reason. After she be-
came more composed the idea occurred
to her OF suing the Marquis in the En-
gllsh law courts for breach of promise,
as she had upward of 200 of his letters,
which, 1t was considered. would estab-
llsh her case. Whether she shrank
from the scandal of such a pro-
ceeding, or whether she was de-
tered from putting it into execution by
insufficiency of means, is not known,
but she settled down into state of deep
melancholy, from which nothing could
arouse her, and finally she procured the
fatal drug which put an end to her ex-
istence. 1 give you the facts as [ CLEANED
them, without vouching for their perfect
accuracy. Efforts are being made to
keep the matter as quiet as possible.
know not how far Lord Anglesea may
be to blame in the matter, but it is quite
possible the unfortunate lady's steps
may have led her to indulge in illusions
in regard to marriage with his Lord
ship when there was no serious founda-
ton. The police authorities held an
inquiry into the affair to-day, and, after
inspecting the body, gave NJ. Weeks, of
the chapel in the Rue Bayard, permits
sion to make all necessary arrangements
for the funeral. The last services will
be conducted by Dr. Morgan at his
chapel on next Saturday morning.

At the end of twenty years of Repub-

taken in a single day.
In twenty years of Republican rule
we find:
An increase of population of so per

An increase of general agricultural
exports of 600 per cent.
An increase in exports of bread and
breadstuffs of $50 per cent.
An increase of exports of manufact-
ured articles of 225 per cent.
An increase of internal commerce of
700 per cent.
An increase of railway mileage of 1877
per cent.
In 1860, after twenty years of Demo
cratic rule, Congress authorized loan
of $25, 900, 900 to pay current expenses.
In 1880, after twenty years of Repub-
hcan rule, the Secretary of the Treasury
pays $85, 000,0 900 of debt contracted for a
war brought on by solid Democratic
South, which now wants power again so
as to stop the waving of that bloody
shirt, the wearing of which is Hancock's
chief glory, and his whole available
stock as candidate for the Presidency.
In 1860, after twenty years Of Demo
cratic rule, the balance of trade against
the country was over 500, 100000.
On May 81, 1880, after twenty years
of Republican rule, the balance Of trade
was over 1852, 100000 in favor of this
country.
In 1860, after twenty years of Demo-
cratic rule and teaching, there was very
serious question whether we had any
nation, and the old public functionary
In the White House, whose chief adviser
was Jere Black, the man who now fur
nlshes the craftsmanship for Gen. Han
cock, announced that there was sno
power in the Government to coerce a
State" leaving the inference that Jeff
Davis and Alec Stephens could send the
country to the demnition bow-wows for
all he could do to prevent. After twenty
years Of Republican rule there is no
doubt that we have country, and Alec
Stephens and Jere Black would give all
they are worth to have the people for
get that they ever questioned it.
The kind of ruin which five successive
Republican administrations have inflicted
upon the country is just little striking
in view of the figures, and the people
like it and call for more of the same sort,
and are bound to have it, too.

A CONTRAST.

Eight Hundred Millions of Debt Paid
i'm Fifteen Years of Republican

Washington Telegram to New York Tribune.l
Within two or three days tabular
statement, prepared at the Treasury De-
partment, will be issued, showing the
reduction of the principal of the nation
al debt, less cash in the treasury, and
decrease of interest charged thereon an
nually from Aug. 81, 1865, and monthly
from March l, 1877 to July /, 1885,"
The statement differs from those issued
on previous years relating to the same
subject only in bringing the work down
to q later date. The following table
exhibits the result in summary form:

the current annual interest charge is

In contrast with this remarkable show
ing it is useful to notice briefly the Dem
ocratic financial record for the last fif
teen years of the rule of that party in
public affairs, between the years lS47
and 1861. In those years of profound
peace the public debt was increased

treasury was reduced to 50, 115, 1880.

There Was LIQUOR in Him.

George Bennett, who was hanged at
Toronto, Canada, for the murder of Ed
itor Brown, of the Toronto Globe, made
the following speech from the gaIlows !:
Gentlemen, [ am going to die, and
l am innocent of crime. By no words
that I can possibly say can I clear my
self, and l cannot say any more than
that am innocent, as the act was be-
yond my control. The act by which the
Hon. George Brown met his death was
done in an excited moment. [ suppose
he could not foresee the consequence.
He thought I was going to use the re-
yolver when drew it from my pocket,
and he grasped at it, and it caused the
act which caused his death. His hand
must have struck the trigger, as the shot
was fired simultaneously with his catch
ing it. 1 am going to meet my God
now, and it would be foolish thing
for me to die with lie on my lips.
What [ say here you may accept as a
fact. 1 would not likely speak false
when I am about to die. [ am pos

edged the crime if [ did it. The blood

heart or a coward It would have been
shameful thing to have done such an
act, as Mr.. Brown did not deserve it.
He was the most popular man through
out the world, and deserved it, and he
went to his death through an over
sight on my part. I went to him for a
very simple reason, and not to commit
crime. [ could not control the event.
There was liquor in me, and the acct
dent occurred, and was fatal"
Bennett then turned his back to the
spectators and motioned with his right
hand, in which he held crucifix, and
remarked, quite coolly: 81 am pre-
pared to die. All [ have to say now is,

to be noticed by the cabmen, whose sus-
plcions he had aroused, and Louis, a
willy old driver, seeing him coming one
day, laid trap for him by placing his
wife's umbrella inside his own cab. No
senouy at once spotted it, got In, gave the
driver an address, and, ON arriving, got
out, paid his fare, and was about to walk
off with Nine. Louis bingham, when the

THr choice Of a lubricant is frequently

THE choice of lubricant is frequently
ill-made. Common kerosene oil is too
often iniudiciously used in place of a
thicker or more bland oil, because the
heat produced by the friction rapidly
vaporizes the oil, and leaves the journal
dry. Crude petroleum; for the same
reason, is fitted only for very slow re-
volving journals, such as water-wheels.
For very heavy machinery or for gearing,
tallow and black lead rubbed up together
is the best lubricant, and is also the best
for wagon and carriage axles during hot
weather. For light running machinery
sperm oil is the best; good olive oil that
has not become rancid and acid is, per-
haps, the second best, and for winter use
lard oil is excellent, but is rather too dry
to be first-class lubricant. Castor oil
is better for axles in the winter time, and
black lead with it is help at any time.

This shows the greatest percentage of
losses during Van Buren's administra-
ton, the next greatest in Monroe's, the
next in Tyler's. Since the Republican
party came into power the percentage of
losses has been lessened. Notwithstand-
ing all that has been said about corrup-
ton and public plumber, the percentage
of loss during any Republican admins
tration has been less than quarter what
it was under the very best OF the Demo
