NEWSPAPER POSTAGE.-The present
mail laws for newspapers were enacted
when congress was mad, and bad as they
are, they are not near 50 bad at many
members proposed, and would like to
have enacted. The newspapers had made
a row about the franking privilege which
constrained congress to cut it off. 1t was
done under coercion, and congress was
mad about it. They made another row
about congress raising the salary of mem
bers and giving back pay. This COM
PEELED many to disgorge, and this made
them madder. The readjustment Of
newspaper and other postage was up at
that time, and congress fixed it SO as to
compel the publishers of papers of gen
eral circulation to pay postage in adj
vance. This put all the payment of
postage on the publisher. But as the
country papers had not offended in this
way, and as each member and his pets in
these, congress made these free of the
mails within their respective counties. 1t
came near putting the rate Of postage
much higher in addition to this. The
present postal law, as to newspapers,
stands monument of spite work and
favoritism. To make the privilege even,
all should be made free of the mails

WELL KNowN.-As it is known that
DR.. Prices Special Flavoring Extracts
are not made up from chemical poisons,
but natural favors, delicate and grateful
to the most cultivated palate, they are
growing rapidly in popular favor. 1t is
only necessary to try these favors to be
convinced that they are fine and pure.
A company of women, recently arrived
from London, under the leadership of a
man, calling themselves the Salvation
Army" are the latest sensation in New
York, where they have begun to hold
forth as religions revivalists. They are
dressed in queer costume, and adopt
emotional processes of excitement. The
question naturally suggests itself, Has
this English "Army of Salv alton" sue
ceeded in saving all England, that it
should extend its operations to this coun-
try? Are We indeed heather country,
requiring English missionaries to labor
for our conversion?

THE NEEKER MAsSACRE.-WAsHl

THE MEEKER Observation-Disclosures
TON, March 17.-Ouray, this morning,
before the house committee On Indian af-
fairs, testified in the Spanish language as
to the facts which had come to his know
ledge in reference to the White River
massacre. He stated that prior to the
trouble which had arisen between Agent
Meeker and the Indians relative to the
plowing up of their pasture lands, no dis
satisfaction had been felt by the Indians
toward the government. He knew moth
ing personally about either the fight with
Thornburgh or the killing of Meeker and
his employees; nor did he know how many
Utes had been engaged in either of those
but he denied that any but
White River Utes had been implicated.
The examination was pos, ooned till to-
morrow, the committee desiring to listen
to the debate upon the deficiency bill.
Ouray stated that he was very anxious
to return to his people and report the ar
and agreements entered into
between himself and Secretary Schurz,
and was assured the committee will endea-
vor not to detain him mere than two days
but the committee had already waited 6
weeks, pending the negotiations with the
Interior Department, and could not well
close up their investigation without hear
ing the Indians.

NSVERED TNTITATN1NS.

There isa form of incivility of which
ladies are very often guilty, which is so
very annoying to their friends that it
may not be amiss to call attention to it
and point out how exceedingly incon-
venient it s-we allude to the habit of
not answering notes as soon as they are
received. 1t is generally done from
ldleness and habit of shirking trouble,
though, as the answer must ultimately
be written, it i. hard to see what exer-
ton is saved by not writing it
at the proper time OF the
inconvenlellce to the lady who
sends the note of not receiving the an
swer she requires, no one seems to think
10 take a very familiar instance: A
lady wishing to give small dinner sends
out SIX notes-inviting twelve people
by a servant; desiring him to ask for an
swers; but the chances are that he will
return to hei without any-'the ladies
said they would send''. If they do so,
well ana good, though it would be more
polite if they returned the answers in
the manner desired; but, as most host
esses can sorrowfully affirm, they often
have to wait two and sometimes three
days before reply is vouchsafed to them.
Perhaps the offenders can hardly realize
how unpardonably rude such conduct is /;
some err from want of thought; but we
fear there are some who labor under the
delusion that it is fine, and increase
their importance to keep people waiting.
The inconvenience to the unfortunate
hostess can hardly be exaggerated.
Rooms are not elastic, and having asked
the quantity of people, she can ask no
more until she knows that some of those
invited, as is generally the case in most
parties, cannot come. Every day she is
kept waiting lessons the time for invit-
ing Others, ,and as some people are so ool-
ish as to be offended if invited at short
notice, her party is spoiled, either by be-
ing smaller than she intended, or by her
being obliged to ask, not those whom
she thinks will suit best, but those with
whom she is sufficiently intimate to give
very short invitation.-New York
Home Journal.

THE Boss Town FOR STRIKES.
LOUIS, March 1.-THE strikers at the
Missouri Pacific railroad machine shops
here held long secret-meeting this after
noon, at which several speeches were
made, the tenor of which was that they
would stand firmly together; that they
would not treat with superintendent He
witt as individuals, but only as body
that they would not resume work until
their demand for an advance Of 10 per
cent. has been complied with; and they
signed a pledge to this effect.
About twenty yardmen in the freight
yards of the Wabash, St. Louis & Pacific
western division, struck tonight for an
advance of2O cents day. They had
been receiving c.aiar and eighty cents
and now want two dollars.
The cigar makers union at a meeting
tonight adopted resolution approving
the course O. cigar makers of Cincinnati
and appointed committee to collect
money for their benefit. The trades as
sembly will probably take similar ac-
ton.

FEMALE SUFFRAGE IN WIsCoNsIN.

FEMALE SUFFRAGE IN WISCONSIN,
Wisconsin must in future be set down as
the champion female suffrage State.
While Massachusetts, and Connecticut
and New York and other states have
been doling out small installments of
what is called justice to women, accord
ing to the gentler sex-the petty conces-
sions of the right to serve upon school
boards and to vote when they possess a
certain amount Of property-the Legis-
lature of the Badger State has at bound
set aside the scruples of the more conser-
vative commonwealths, and without re-
gard to previous condition of seryitude,
race, religion or sex, declared that in
their opinion women are as fully entitled
to exercise the right of suffrage as men.
A resolution to this effect has been almost
unanimously passed by the two houses Of
the Legislature, and we are told by the
local journals that the passage of the bill
was greeted in the Senate with "thun-
ders'' of applause by the fair occupants
of the galleries. The question is not,
however, definitely decided, for it seems
the trifiing obstacle of the State constitu
ton stands in the way, and it will be
necessary to amend that instrument be-
fore the women of Wisconsin can enter
upon the full career of life, liberty and
the pursuit of happiness. 1t will be the
fault of the women themselves if they do
not win in the coming contest, So far as
we can see, the only difficulty in the
matter is that the unmarried women are
not included in the proposed amend
ment. Married ladies only are to be ad-
mitted to the sacred privileges of the
ballot-box, those who. are so unfortunate
as not to have changed their names be-
ing vigorously excluded frem the benefits
of the act. However, as this is leap year
the women of Wise consin have the whole
question in their own hands.-Nep York
Herald.

CARL ,SCHURZ IN BRIEF.

Carl Schurz was born at Liblar, in
Rhinish Prussia in 1929. He was en-
gagged in the publication of liberal
newspaper at the time of the revolution
ary outbreak in 1S4S, and engaged the
following year in an unsuccessful attempt
to create an insurrectiOn at Bonn. Enter
ing the army, he obtained the rank of adj
iutant at the defence of Rastadt After
this he went to Switzerland, but return
ing to Germany in 1850, he succeeded in
effecting the escape from imprisonment
of his companion, Kinkel, with whom he
had been associated in the publication of
his newspaper. In 1851 he went to Par
is as correspondent for some German pa
pers. About the close of the following
year he came to this country. He re-
manned three years in Philadelphia, when
ne moved to Watertown, Wis, and en-
tered violently into politics. He became
the leader among the Germans of this
state, but was defeated for lieutenant
governor in 1857. He now moved to
Milwaukee and began the practice of
law, and attracted considerable attention
by a series of interesting lectures on New
GIlplduu. Ill 1OOl uG NdS dipp ppOlllCd W
the president Minister to Spain, but he re-
signed this position and entered the army
In 1867 he settled at Detroit, Michigan,
and founded there The Post, but he did
not remain here above a year when he
removed to ST. Louis, where he became
editor of The Westliche Post, a German
paper. He figured prominently at the
Chicago convention in 1868, and in the
following year was elected to the United
States senate in Missouri. While there
be gained national reputation as an
able debater He did not exactly agree
with Gen. Grants administration, and
presided over the Liberal convention at
Cincinnati, which nominated Horace
Greeley for the presidency in 1872. In
1873 he visited Europe, where he remain
ed for nearly two years, and on his return
settled in New York city. He took an
active part IN canvassing the state of
Ohio for governor Hayes in 1875, and on
the latter's election to the presidency
Schurz was appointed secretary of the In
terror, which position he now holds

T.NI1Apy AND MAY.-W WASHINGTON

JANUARY AND NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.,
March 17.-The young wife of Minister
Christiancy, formerly an employe Of the
Treasury Department, returned to Wash
ington several months ago, and rumors
were then current that her return was
not altogetherowing to the war between
Chill and Peru, but that there was also a
domestic war between man and wife, aris-
ing from incompatibility Of temper and
the very great disparity Of their ages.
The Star this evening says it is now un-
derstood that some of Minister Christian
cy's friends who have at his request in
vestigated certain stories which recently
reached him in Peru, have reported to
him that he has good and sufficient
grounds for a divorce. The Star is
furthermore informed that it is probable
some such proceedings will be taken, and
that Mr.. Christiancy will soon be here to
prosecute the case.

BURGLAR SHoT.-MEMPHIs, Tenn,
March 18--This morning at 2 o'clock
William Shuttleworth, painter residing
in the Irving Block, was awakened by
hearing sCme one walking in his bed
room. Grasping a pistol, he called out,
'Who is there?" Failing to get re-
sponse he fred at an object, in the cor
ner of the room, which proved to be
burglar, who fled down stairs, pursued
by Shuttleworth, who fred two more
shots at the fleeing thief Nothing more
was heard Of the affair until this morn
ing at 10 O'Clock, when the police were
notified that Joe Costello, young man
hailing from Bowling Green, KY, was
suffering from a pistol shot, which had
passed clear through his chest. Investi-
cation proved that he was the man shot
by Shuttleworth, and had ran to his
boarding house, six squares distant, with
out knowing the ball had struck him.
Castillo came originally from Canada.
He is at the City Hospital, and will pro-
badly die.

GLADsTONE.-For statesman 70 years
years, Mr.. Gladstone is certainly the most
active man in the business of stumping
in political campaign. He has just
started on another electiOneering tour
through Midlothian, after one of his
enthusiastically confident and sturdy
speeches. During his recent Scottish
tour, Mr., Gladstone spoke at nearly every
railway station, and at some points made
speeches two and three hours long. 1t
is said that his vigor as public speaker
has not abated one iota from his oratori-
cal exploits in his early Tory days, and
his maturer efforts after his tuition in
free trade under Sir Robert Peel. Mr..
Gladstone is certainly a wonderful old
gentleman, for he is not less distinguish
ed as classical scholar of rare attain
ments than as o fnancier and genuine
Christian politician.

Two INDUSTRIOUS sCATTLE,-MARE
Iowa, March 15.-Mr. Jacob Beneman,
Of this town, has the largest pair Of cat
tie in the United States. They are 4
years old, one of them is dark red, and
the other red and white spotted The
larger of the two measures in height,
from his whithers to the ground, 6 feet 9
inches; from the top Of his back across
his rump, feet inches; from the tip Oh
his tail to the tip of his nose, Is feet 10
inches around the top of his foreleg, 2
feet inchesg around his knee, foot 10
inches; around the smallest part of his
leg, l foot and l inch. The other is of
similar dimensions, there being but little
difference in their size. They are
genuine curiosity, and many people come
to see them, and all pronounce them the
biggest cattle they have ever seen or
heard Of / have not learned their
weight These cattle were brought to
this place from Kansas on the 23d Of
September, 1879, before which time they
had never been fed with grain. They are
still growing, and there is no telling
what they will come to when they shall
have got their full growth.

The trial Of the income tax suit of the
government against Samuel J. Tilden,
which has been dragging through the
courts for some time. has been appointed
for April 26, in the United States District
Court at New York Tilden has been
ordered to produce in court all books,
papers and memoranda which may in
any way throw light on his income be-
tween December 81, 1861, and January
l, 1873, and also any papers showing his
income from the New York Iron Mining
Company from June l, 1864, to January
l, 1873. Tilden's private secretary and
his bankers and brokers have also been
subpenaed as witnesses. 1t will be a
nine-days wonder if Sammy should be
compelled to disgorge.
