Among the senators of the United
States is one who makes no enemies. A
partisan himself. in times of Hottest parti-
sanship he succeeds in preserving the good
will of his opponents. He is never unkind,
discourteous, or exasperating in debate ;
he never draws upon himself the
personal animosity of those with
whom he is politically in conflict.
Serene in his demeanor, gentlemanly
in his bearing, estimable in every way, he
passes on through term after term of SER
vice, respected by his colleagues of both
parties and pointed out to the visitor in
the gallery as one of the most notable men
in the Senate. His tall, well-attired figure
attracts the strangers attention. He moves
from the Democratic to the Republican
side of the chamber, and is greeted with
equal cordiality on both. When he rises to
speak heis heard with respect, for there is
never a sharp or provoking word ready
upon his tongue. His slow. deliberate
utterance and well-cOnsidered sentences
have an impressive effect. The sedate
manner and correct diction seem as proper
to him as the symmetry of his tightly
buttoned frock coat. His speeches are
logical and and enriched with apt class
ical illusions. If they do not excite the
hearer to enthusiasm it is because they
deal, as rule, with broad, philosophic
principles, rather than with those details
of every day politics which move and i'll
terest the masses.

'SoLDIER rest.'' General John A.
Sutter, the discoverer of gold in Califor-
mia, and to whose labors probably more
than to those of any other of the early
pioneers of the Pacific coast is due the
inception of the movement that resulted
in the remarkable development of that
section of the country, has been gathered
to his fathers. His has..been strangely
contradictory career, the turbulent
scenes through which he passed in the
days when his name and fame were ia
miliar rs household words being in strik-
ing contrast with the quiet retirement of
the latter portion of his lifetime, from
which he has passed almost unnoticed to
the sleep that knows no waking. The
figure he has left to history is a pictur-
esque one. and there is touch of pathos
i'm the contemplation of the fact that the
owner of almost limitless acres of the
richest soil in the country, dies a pen
sioner on the bounty of the government,
which has profited SO materially by his
discoveries. He was benefactor to his
adopted land and now that he has passed
from the sphere of active usefulness we
may look for tardy acknowledgment by
the government of his eminent services
in development of its material resources.

From Our Mount Joy Correspondent.
About half-past nine o'clock OH Satur-
day evening fire was discovered in Harry
A. Wade's barn, 4 short distance north of
the Greenawalt house, ElizabethtOwn, and
IN i short time the whole building was
brightly illuminated with the flames. An
alarm was Immediately sounded and on
reaching ehe place NOW containing Il
load of hay was found to be on fire, the
flames shooting up to the rafters. With
almost superhuman efforts the citizens.
with buckets of water, checked the flames
until the steamer arrived. when they were
fortunately extinguished. How the iiic
originated is unknown. One supposi-
ton is that II match had been
dropped among some chah' on which
the hay was placed. MIR. Eli Douchtrick,
who cultivated the farm, had been around
the barn and had closed the doors som :.
time before the fire occurred and does not
think it the work of an incendiary. The
timbers were somewhat charrcd and tie
loss will fall below $50.
\ horse attached to Il buggy. the
property of Jacob Wagner, of Raphn
township, dashed through East Main
street, Mount Joy, on galIop. about ten
o'clock on Saturday night. The horse
continued running until lie reached home,
a distance of three miles, and strange to
say the shafts were only broken.
Martin Hildebrand. of this place. left on
Sunday afternoon for the Cincinnati con-
ventiOn.
y part of the hay crop has been
moved and at some places yields more
largely than was anticipated, there bein.,
a four horse load to the acre. Some of the.
wheat was reaped last week. but the work
begins generally to-day. The tobacco is
growing nicely and looks exceediugIy
fine.

A STRIKE.
Laborers Demand Higher Wages.

Laborers Demand Higher Wages.
On Saturday evening Mayor MacGonirle
received a note signed by twenty-five or
thirty laborers employed in the repair of
the eastern city reservoir, in which they
stated that they would not go to work ON
Monday unless their wages (sl per day for
a man and s2 per day for man with horse
and cart) were increased to .25 for man
and s2.25 for man, horse and cart.
This morning the men were all on hand,
but as neither the mayor nor the superin-
tendent Of water works has any authority
to increase their pay they refused to 90 to
work. The pay Ofthe laborers is fixed by
city council, and can only be increased by
order of those bodies. 1t is thought that
other labOrers can easily be obtained to
take the place of the strikers and that the
work of repairing the reservoir will not be
much delayed.
