were yesterday discovered in a VIII
liamsburg tenement. Two rooms and
a basement had been plainly yet neatly
fitted up for housekeeping on a cheal
scale and there the couple were found
To her fathers inquiry whether or moi
they were married the girl replied in
the negative. To support the household
expenses the girl had yesterday pro
cured worsted to make jackets, and the
boy expected to obtsin employment In
a day or two. On a complaint preferred
by Mr.. Kempf, his daughter and her
runaway companion were arrested on a
charge Of grand larceny and locked up.
The BOYS father also put in an appear

son had acted so foolishly. He said he

WAsuIEGToE, July l4.-The Hon
Marshall Jewell, Chairman Of the Re
publican National Committee, reached
this city tonight from Ohio, where hi
visited General Garfield, Of Mentor
Mr.. Jewell will meet Senator Cameron
in this city tomorrow. He returns
from the West with the most. enthusl
astic views of coming Republican sue
cess, and declares that the party will
90 into the campaign with remarkable
unanimity Of feeling and purpose, al
elements combining for most vigorous
canvass. He says that every Northern
State will be carried by the Republicans
in November, and expects that one OIL
two Southern States will be added t.
the number.
In regard to Maine, he says that
Senator Blaine, Representative Frye
and other residents of that State will
spare no effort to secure success there
and that prominent gentlemen from
other States will aid them. Connect
cut, his own State, he regards as sure
for Garfield and Arthur. He declares
that the party showed great wisdom II
placing General Arthur on the ticket
and is sure that he will strengthen thu
ticket every where, and especially II
New York. In Indiana there is already
evidence that the campaign will be thu
most vigorous one known in that Stat
for many years. Judge Porter is pre-
eminently a popular candidate, and thu
organization Of the party is mor'
effective than it has been before since

Simon Cameron ON enc Political
situation,

WASHINGTON, July IA AT the depo
yesterday, the venerable ex-senator
from Pennsylvania, Gen. Simon Gamer
on, was among the passengers waiting
FOR the train bound for Virgins
Springs. In conversation he said hi
never knew political convention
where there were not personal prefer
snces as to candidates, but when thu
convention named its man, persona
preferences should end, and the whole
party should unite in support Of thu
candidate Of the party. This, he said
was his advice to the Republican party
To look into matters o little, and see
what crimes against the government
and society lay behind the pleasing
frontispiece Of the Democrat military
candidate. The people must not b.
deluded. II was the Democratic party
they had to fear, and it did not mat
ter whether JEFF Davis, Tilden, or Han
cook, or anybody else, was at the head
oft. No man, even after he was elect
ed, Is stronger than his party, and
whatever the motives Of the party
were, they would prevail. The people
must beware, for II they elect Hancock
all the people in the south would star
up and northern Democrats would have
no chance for Office. The great indus
tries of the north /; and the working
classes dependent on them, would be
destroyed, for the rebels have no inter
est in the prosperity and power Of the
North, and they would not be slow II
taking this chance to ruin the people
whom they had failed to vanquish II
the field. The General said he did no
wish to create any sectional feeling
But as long as there is solid South
made SO by restricting citizens in tn
enjoyment Of political franchise, Their
stands a menace against the North. IL
thought by the time of the election tn
people would understand this, and tn
great State Of New York, which woul'
have the most to lose in a Democrati
victory, would see this, and so woul'
Indiana in October, and in Ncvembe
the Republic would meet the soli'
South with solid North.
He thought General Garfield an OK
csllsnt man, with a good record, AM
that he would be elected. He had sue
ceeded we'll in harmonizing every Gle
nsnt Of the party and would receiv
every Republican vote, except one o
two stragglers who never did o part.
any good and left party better with

would carry the Legislature and shoul'

A SONNET.

Smiling, she passes through the verdani

Tho flowers spring up beneath her tendel
feet; sh.do
The birds peep out from ever, le'iy saade,
And bid her Welcome to their cooi az.
The virgin rose spreads oat her fairest iea' 20
And wOos her kisses 10 her blushing DIeast;
All nature halls her as its queenly guest!
Con tentment TO the weary heart she gives
That long had pinned beneath its load Of

Telling the mortal that who truly lives
And suffers, doth not suffer all In vain.
For after this sad vale OF sin and teais
Como Joy and happiness untold Tor endless

discard I'm the Democratic Ranks.


WASHINGTON, July 14.-There are a
number of Democratic politicians who
are thoroughly dissatisfied with the
manner in which the Democratic Con-
gressional Committee has been organi-
zsd. 1t is asserted that half a dozen
Democrats got together and, under the
direction of Senator Wallace, appointed
this committee without consulting the
body of Democratic congressman. The
committee has always been named by d
caucus, but this year Senator Wallace
assumed the authority to appoint
without calling caucus, and the con-
sequence is there is considerable i'll
feeling on the part of men who think
they have been ignored. The best OF
harmony does not exist among the
Democratic leaders, no matter wha'
they say publicly, and this discord ia
bound to show itself sooner or later.
The oh arge is made that Wallace has
put too many ex Confederates on the
committee and ignored Northern Demo-
Gratis, and it ia the latter who take eK-
ception and make complaint.

And OF all THESE countries tnero 10
hardly one which draws 80 large rev.
enue from the taxation Of British pro
duce. To take only two examples, the
United States and France. The total
value Of British produce exported to
the former country in 1877 was elG,-
300, 900 making allowance for the en-
try of certain amount Of goods duty
free, the average rate levied can hardly
be put higher than 80 per cent, which
would give total revenue ofabout e5,-
eco, 900; while in the case of France,
duties actually levied on British goods
in the same year amounted to little
over GSOO,000.
In view of these facts, we are not
surprised that Mr.. Mallet reaches the
following conclusions: "Our so-called
revenue "duties' cannot fail to pro.
duce results as "injurious to the ex-
porting industries of "the countries
affected by them as their protective
duties cause to our own trade. "
While the truthfulness Of Mr.. Mallet's
statements cannot be questioned, we
should consider it inexpedient, on the
part Of the Golden Club, to give them
currency. 1t seems like ''giving away
the whole free trade argument. If II
be true that Great Britain's revenue
duties hart the exporting trade Of Other
countries as much as "hostile foreign
tariffs" hurt the exporting trade o.
Great Britain, her effort to propagate
freetrade doctrines is a piece of i'm.
pertinence which other countries are
perfectly justified in resenting. The
gen tlemen Of the Golden Club could
not do better than direct some part o.
their missionary effort toward reform
ing the British revenue system. 1t Ii
a sufficient reply, at present, to all ap
peals for free American markets fol
British manufactures, that Great
Britain now collects on American ex'
ports S5 900, 900 more revenue annually
than Is collected at American ports on
British exports. We are indebted II
Mr. Mallet and his publishers for q
concise and cor elusive argument
against entertaining any overtures TIT
Golden Club may make US.

Incidents Of the Narragansett Disaster.

THERE are many strange incidents
connected with the Narragansett disas-
ter. The Rev. Mr.. Cushman was on
board the Stonington, bound for New
York. He is very deaf, and never heard
a noise that fearful night. He got up
leisurely next morning, dressed and
shaved himself, and went out, thinking
the boat was at New York. The Rev.
MIR. Lockwood, who was lost on the Mar
ragansett, bade adieu TO his friends in
New York, and said he had a PRESENT.
ment he was not going to live long. In
his hand were found some excursion
tickets, a small map of Connecticut and
a few Sunday-school cards. John A.
Davis, of New York, tried to get a berth
on the fatal steamer, but could not. He
went by another line. He neglected to
telegraph his safe arrival, and on re-
turning to New York found his wife in
mourning and his clergyman with his
funeral sermon written. The number
who just missed going that night on the
lost boat is very great. 1t is strange
that man should prefer certain death
by bullets to the chance of being picked
up in the water, yet three men shot
themselves dead. The life-rafts were
much superior to the life-boats. Most
of the latter had their water-plugs pulled
out to allow rainwater to run out. They
were launched in this way, and soon filled
and were useless. Alvin S. Rubill is now
in a New York insane asylum, driven
crazy by the terrible sights he saw. One
man threw out two mattresses and then
quietly tossed his two children upon one
of them. They lay quietly, and then he
and his wife secured the other mattress,
and the family floated off safely. An.
other man put a life-preserver on his
wife and on himself, and taking his child
in his arms leaped into the sea. A wave
snatched. his child away from him, but
he seized the little one by the heel and
threw it on a raft. Then he helped hi,
wife on the raft. Crazed by the flames
a woman about fifty years old leaped
from the hurricane deck and struck the
| lower deck on her head and shoulders
She was carried away. One of the sad
dest relics of the collision was a buoy
picked up by the fishing boat Antarctic
The buoy was stamped with the name
of the Narragansett. To it was pinned
both ends of a napkin, the loops o
which might have spanned the body o
a child. Fastened to one of the becket
was a switch of hair, such as ladies us,
to recruit the stock supply. One end o
it was knotted to the buoy, the othe
was tied to corner of the napkin.

fringed with lace was used to hold tn
