 cities must be profitable fields for the opera
 tions of life insurance companies. It is pos | sible, however, that the error is not in under
 stating the number of deaths, but in over I stating the total population.
 There has been desire to know what and how much sx-Govsrner Garcelon meant when he said there was Judas in his Council He has explained what he meant. 'I mean by Judas" he says, ''a man who Is & traitor, man who was traitor, not so much to my
 party as traitor in the matter of the returns.
 mean a man who tempered with the returns,
 provided they were tempered with" He ad-
 mits that it looks as if some of the returns
 were tempered with, says that he recognized
 the present Legislature as legal, and says
 ''When can get the Council together mean
 to have 6 raking of this whole matter. l
 think it will be found that this tampsring
 with returns was done by one individual-but
 I don't care now to name who think that in dividusl is. Some of the Republican sllsga-
 tions may be doubtful, but that case in York
 I can't get over. Ths tims will come when
 ths public will have full developments on these matters. I might say more, but the time has not yet come. I want to get before my Council again and have this whole subject thoroughly oanyasssd. I think sometime I shall make & more particular statement than can now" If the ex-Governor can clear him self from any connection with the deeds of the Judas whom he 50 dimly and hypothetically perceives he had better not lose any time in doisg 50.
 One of the nest lively church fights of the day is that which now raees between Christ Church and its chapel in Philadelphia. Christ Church Is venerable establishment situated down town, and surrounded by business houses. George Washington used to have g pew in 1t. Christ Church chapel is at Nine teenth and Pine streets, among fashionable church-goers. The quarrel began in regard to the Rev. Mr Hodge, the popular young minister of the chapel. Ths Rev. Dr. Foggo, rector of Christ Church, wanted MT. Hodge to go, and after some delay Mir. Hodge went. Dr. Foggo now appoints @ successor to Mir. Hodge. but the chapel people sey they do not want him and will not have him. The chap el wants to set up for itself as an independent church. Tho people who attend it claim to have contributed the money which it cost, and say that old Christ Church gave nothing to- ward 1t. For this reason they want to govern it themselves instead of being governed by what they consider an outside corporation with inimical interests and worrisome ways. Dr. Fcggo and his adherents are locked out, and rome of the brethren of Christ Church chapel are holding the fort" in much the same manner as the same thing was done some time ago by Brother Jeremiah Bsulah Murray and his colorsd adhersnts in Brooklyn. The case will come up for settlement in the civil courts. It promises to bs one of much inter est, as tho parties involved move in the most select circles In Philadelphia society. Each side will be represented by the most eminent legsl talent it can procure.

4 Great Man Coming
New Y ork Star,

The announcement of Herbert
Spencer's intention to visit this country
is an event calculated to excite the in
terest of every educated American.
He is perhaps the greatest of living
philosophers, and is the recognized au-
thor of that theory of evolution which
is adduced to explain not only the
phenomena of inanimate nature, but
the phenomena of society and the hui
man mind Whether we accept or dis
sent from his views, it is impossible to
consider the character and scope of his
intellectual labors without a profound
respect for the grandeur Of his genius
and reverend curiosity to behold the
man who enshrines it. Nay, more, the
popularity of his works here gives
assurance of a warm welcome from
host of ardent admirers, young men
and old, who regard him as the great
discoverer Vt that middle ground be-
tween skepticism and superstition,
where the votaries of reason can con-
indulge in the worship of God.

She dropped this rosebud half an hour ago,
While gliding through that witching waltz OF
Strauss:

The ponder0us feet Of Phillips and his spouse.
Tell me, sweet rose, before your petals fall,
Does my love know love her best of all!
Another waltz. And as | feared, again
That chattering noodle Briggs her vis-a-vis.
Hes rich, though rather pa8se, and it's plain
lie loves her-that the very blind could see,
How graciously she listens to his drawl!
All can she know love her best of alIl
| never told how her winsome face
Comes to my thoughts unbid the whole day
through;
Ineyer asked her if there is place
In her young heart where I'm remembered
too,
Yet watching her | lean against the wall,
And tell my soul / love her best of all.
Now hats the music for little space,
And. seated see, she gathers dantily
Her gowns gay folds aside to make place
A place for Briggs BY Jove, she becllons

My queen, come. Now. let what may befall

The soft, still dawn steals up the whitening sky
The lights out, the music dumb and dead

Strange gladness thrills my heart as | recall
Her whispered words: i love you best of ALL

About Laughing
From Labouehere, in London Truth.

As to laughing, how seldom, except
on the stage, do we hear a really mu-
steal laugh. Some girls make dreadful
grimaces when they laugh. \ little
education in the art would make their
laughter artificial, and they would sure
" enjoy it all the more if they could
realize that they might indulge in mirth
without making themselves look so
very ugly as is occasionally the case.
1t runs in families sometimes to dis
tort the countenance in laughter. 1
know a family who laugh great deal.
Their eyes are always shut up when
they do so, and it is the funniest thing
when one dimes with them, and some
thing amusing IS said, to look round
the table and see exactly the same dis
tortion on every face. There is not an
eye left in the family. Three sisters
whom l know, show quite half an
inch Of a pale pink gnm when
they laugh. In their presence, like
Wendell Holmes, one never dares
to be as funny as one can, for fear of
seeing this appalling triple vision of
gums. A little training in childhood
would make their laughter pleasant
little thing to look at, for they have all
pretty little square teeth, very white
and even Ward Beecher says, "a
good laugh is worth hundred groans
in any market" and | am sure pretty
one is worth Il thousand.

An Educational Endorsement.

The Rev. C. A. Harvey, D. D., of the Howard
university, of Washington, has addressed the fol-
lowing letter to Messrs. II. II. Warner & Co., of
Rochester, n. Y:
GENTLEMEN [ take pleasure in stating that
have for two years past been acquainted with
the remedy known as Warmers Safe Kidney and
Liver Cure, and with its remarkable curative eff
cheney in obstinate and so called incurable eases
of Bright's Disease in this city. In some of these
cases, which seemed to be in the last stages, and
which had been given up by practitioners of both
edy seemed but little less than miraculous / am
convinced that for Bright's Disease, in all its
stages, no remedy heretofore discovered can be
held for one moment in comparison with this.
Respectfully yours, C. A. HARVEY.

No One Can Breathe with Safety

Air impregnated with the seeds of fever and
ague, unless provided with a medicinal safe
guard against the ruinous disorder. That time
honored and highly sanctioned preventive, Hos
letters Stomach Bitters, has won by merit the
anti-spasmedic action, and is particularly es-
teemed in localities where the scourge of fever
and ague is most severely felt. A course of this
benign remedy invariably results in expelling all
traces of the febre virus from the system, and as
the medicine is purely botanic and free from all
deleterious ingredients, it is much to be preferred
to quinine or other prescribed remedies; The effect
of which is temporary, and which are calculated
to produce baneful after effects. As a tonic and
Alternative the Btters incompatible, certifying
the system against disease, and regulating its
rious functions with certainty and speedily. Its
effects are not transitory, but permanent and de-
cisive.
