A WRETCHED POTENTATE,

The Car of Russia is probably the most
unhappy being in the Universe, and there is
little doub that could he exchange places
with tie poorest and humblest Of his de-
graded subjects, he would ~ioyfully embrace
the opportunity. Scarcely a day passes that
does not witness an attempt at his assassina-
ton. He is beset by enemies and is in a
constant fever of apprehension lest their
continued efforts to bring about his destruc-
ton shall prove successful. All classes of the
population from the recently delivered serts to
the chief officers of tie army and highest state
doctrines. 1t is even suspected that the Gar
owitz connives at, if he is not already impli-
Gated, in the plots to overthrow his royal
parents authority, and it has been broadly
limited that he is not unknowing to the con-
spiracics upon his life. The Czarina, too, is
said to have no sympathy with the condition
of the Russian potentate, and in IA foreign
country is residing IN apparent unconcern as
to his ultimate fate.
Yesterdays dispatches contain the particu-

Tuesday by means of explosives placed under
the principal guard room. Fortunately the
emperor was absent at the time the blast
was fired, and thu5 once more escaped to suf-
fer mental tortures of a far more distressing
character than lie would have experienced
had the purpose of the assassins been sue
c~essfully effected. lie is certainly deserving
of the sympathy of mankind, for though
compared with other European potentates lie
is undoubtedly harsh and despotic, his reign
has been SO much more lenlent and lib
eral than that of his predecessors that it is
difficult to account for the vindictlveness and
extent of the present dissatisfaction. If the
Gar is a level-hcaded man he will abdicate,
for there is no doubt that sooner or later the
efforts of his enemies will prove successful in
procuring his violent destruction.

Tuesday he would move to take up the &C.

unless Gen. Porter's case was Immediately
disposed of. Gen. Logan said he would
assist in bringing Gen. Porter's case up so as
to dispose of it. The Republican side of the
house was ready to meet the question.

WAsnINGTON, Feb. 17.-Memorials having
recently been presented to Congress from a
number of railroads for a reduction of the
rate of duty III steel rails, and | it having been
asserted at a hearing before the ways and
means committee that the reduction was de-
mAnded by nearly all the roads in the country,
a very extensive counter demonstration of
opposing interests was made to-day by pre-
sentation in the two houses of Congress of
memorials from IA very large number of rail-
road officers protesting against a reduction as
injurious to railroad interests as well as to
the American steel rail industry. The rail
roads represented by these officers have a total
length of 1928 miles of road. The repre-
sentatives of the above railroad companies
announced a large lumber OF smaller petit
tions on the way.

THE NEW MINING STOCK HOARD,

The New York Graphic says that the new
that city will be ready to begin its operations
in a few days. Behind it are some of the
largest miners and mining operators in the
country, ard OH the committee of organiza-
ton are such names as Senator John I. Jones,
of Nevada; ex-senator Alexander Melon
aid, Stephen b. Elkins, Ex-Governor A. =. X.
Stafford, of Arizona George ID. Roberts and
Henry Hayemeyer. Handsome rooms have
been opened and furnished on the ground
floor of the Boreel building, at No. 1l5
Broadway, and offices connected with the
Mining Trust Company's interest are on the
floor above. 1t is proposed to combine under
the special charter three organizations l. a
mining exchange for purposes similar to the
already in eXistenCa, confined entirely to
mining stocks. 2. A clearing house for mill
ing stock operators. 3. A mining trust com
pany, whose loans are to be made on mining
stocks and securities.
The originatols of tie scheme DO not III
tend tn interfere in any way with the regular
business Of either The present Stock or Min
ing exchanges. and it is thought that circum-
stances may ultimately lead to an amalgama-
ton with the latter. 1t is understood that
the proposed new Exchange originated in the
dissatisfaction Of leading operators with the
character of some of the stocks listed by The
regular Board, and with some Of the MEM
bers OF the latter and an assurance is given
49,, ..I. ,l,l ,.,. ,..,,. .:ll l. -.
The present subscription price OF seats is
81, goo and the annual dues are $50, each
members seat to be secured by the creation
of a special trust investment in Government
bonds. Among the present subscribers are
some who are members Of the Old Mining
Board. Exactly when the formal opening
will take place has not been determined. 1t
is expected that the final arrangements will
be made within a few days.

WAsHINGToN, Feb. 1.-THE information
from North CorOlina is that the excitement
over the election of delegates to the Chicago
convention is on the increase. The fl lends and
agents of Sherman are working with a will to
secure the district delegates. Two delegates
who were supposed to be for Sherman, 10
declare for Grant.
Acklin will not be expelled, but he will
probably not venture in the House again this
session.
Respecting The effort of the House election
committee TO unseat Waslrburne of Mime
sofa, by overturning his majority of 5000, it is
understood that two Democratic members of
the committee, Speer, of Georgia, and Clarke,
of New York, do not concur in the action of
their colleagues. Speer has declined to at
tend the meetings of the committee to avoid
being bull-dozed, and Clarke has expressed
himself very decidedly against throwing out
some votes which must be disposed Of to get "A
majority for Donnelly.
Secretary Sherman has enlisted the services
in his behalf of Bishop Wood, of the African
Methodist Church, who is probably the most
influential colored preacher in the whole
South.

Match.

LONDON, Feb. lS.-The talk of the pedes-
trian contest between Dan. OLeary and E.
ii. Weston, which has been on the taps
some months is at last definitely determined
upon. Weston has been issuing challenges
to OLeary through the sporting papers asking
the latter to meet him, but always insisting
that the match should take place somewhere
in the old country. O'Leary always said
that this country was good enough for him,
but hitherto has not tried inducing Weston

pressing his willingness to walk in America
but insisting OH the match taking place in
San Francisco and during the second week in

Just for fun, and for nothing else in the
world, tour young people of Toccoa, Ga, two
lassies and two lads. crossed over into South
the Peace. They had been told that a mar
riage in South Carolina was not valid unless
a license had been taken out. After the cere-
mony the foolish children found that the
marriages were valid and that their inform
ant as TO the license business knew nothing
about it. They were horror-stricken at the dis

themselves satisfied and have started in the
world as man and wife, but the other pair,
unwilling to accept the situation, will apply
for a divorce.

Boat building is brought to such "a stage of
perfection in this country that boats of 1900
TO 1000 tons now navigate the Mississippi and
Ohio rivers, drawing only W feet of water.
The Golden Crown, running between Gin
and New Orleans, with a capacity of
1900 tons OF freight, draws only W feet.
The Guiding Star of the same line, over 300
feet IN length, with a capacity of 1900 tons,
draws 50 inches. The New Naches, 303 feet
long, 36 feet beam, 10 feet hold and S steel
boilers, with a capicity for 1000 tons of freight
