Losing $2O,OOO.
The Misfortune of Lady While Shop-
 ping in Broadway.

ping in Broadway.
 [From the New York Timesl
 A lady whose name her friends decline to
 make public but who is well known had the misfortune on Tuesday last while shopping
 to lose from her sachel the sum of $20, GOO.
 The amount was in bank bills of large de- nominations, contained in an envelope tightly sealed bearing the lady's name. During the morning she visited number of uptown stores, among others Arnold, Constable & Co.'S. She made purchases there and looked at new silks recently imported. She discov- cred her loss after leaving this store, and re- turning inquired of Mir. Moffit, the manager, if any of the clerks had reported finding the envelope. The clerks at the counters where she made her purchases were questioned. but none of them could throw any light upon the subject. It was then concluded that the lady had either laid the envelope on the counter in a moment of absent-mindedness or dropped 1t in the throng which is continually surging in and out of the store. In either event some one had picked it up and kept still about it.
 The lady is wealthy and will not greatly feel the loss. She is an old customer of Ar mold, Constable < Co.,, and at her request the firm promised to keep her name @ secret She visited the store the following day to learn whether the finder had come forward. She showed only an ordinary interest in the matter, and remarked that she would adver- tise and offer @ reward for its return, al- though she never expects to see it again. Yesterday morning newspaper contained an advertisement in which Messrs. Farley & Sturgis, of '74 Beaver street, agreed to give $5, 1000 reward, with no questions asked, to the person who would return the envelope and it's contents. No response had been re- celved by the firm up to the hour of closing their office last night.

The German sewing machine manufactur- CTS have organized an association for the protection of their interests. The first re- port of this association has been published,
 in which, while the superiority of German sewing machines to those produced in this country is roundly asserted, the complaint is made that the German people will not see it, and persist in buying the American make
 The association admits that the German ma chimes are undersold by the American, but ac- counts for this by the conjecture that Ameri- can manufacturers are such poor business men that they are willing to incur heavy losses in order to sell their machines cheaper than cost In order to prevent this thing from continuing, and to save the American sewing machine manufacturers from ruining themselves, the association considerably proposes that the German government should increase the import duties on foreign sewing machines. The association claims that the

In the opinion delivered by Judge Davis in announcing his decision that Philip must be held on the criminal charge of libel to await indictment by the grand jury, he declares that 'sIn the light of all the evidence the conclusion is irresistible that no such person as the H. L. Mercy named in the letter as the correspondent of General Garfield ever exist ed. and the letter itself is altogether a forgery, perpetrated for the purpose of de- ceiving the people and defrauding them, and General Garfield, of their votes y But 'fthe conspiracy points to men in other quarters and of far higher positions than Philp, 'sof whom he may have been an accompliee or only the dupe." The manner in which the opinion deals with William H. Barnum, the chairman of the Democratic national com naittee, and his companions, Samuel J. Ran dall, Speaker of the House of Represents tives, and Abram S. Hewitt, member-elect of the next Congress, is refreshing

The groundlessness of the agitation about Chinese labor is suggested by the fact that the City of Pekin, which sailed from San Francisco the other day, had on board eight hundred and fifty Chinamen- homeward bound. Some of them were returning with competence, but the majority were disap- pointed emigrants who had found out t at they were better of in their native land. The Chinese question will hardly become live issue until the Celestials bring their wives over with them, and settle down to increase and multiply in the land.

The English Burials act has been brought into operation at Epworth, England, John Wesley's birthplace, in circumstances which deserve notice. An aged Roman Catholic died, and the Rev Canon Burden of Crowle, in accordance with the wishes of the dead woman's relatives, took steps to have her buried according to her faith. Although the notice required under the act had not been strictly given, the vicar, the Rev. Mir. Dundas, at once consented, and the burial took place. It is three hundred and twenty years since a Roman Catholic priest offieiated at funeral in Epworth churchyard.

 The Springfield Union remarks with truth
 that the alumni of Amherst College will be
 glad to learn that the trustees have decided
 to restore some of the ancient glories of
 Commencement and devote especial attention
 to making the week one of pleasure and profit
 to returning graduates. This is in answer to the oft-repeated complaint that Amherst has of late years sadly neglected its alumni, and the desire expressed at the last Commence ment that the alumni dinner should be re- yived. The exercises of the week will here after be confined to three days, closing on Wednesday. The Commencement exercises will be held in the college hall on Wednesday and then the hall will be cleared and prepared for the grand dinner in the af- ternoon. 1t is believed that the new depart ure will call to Amherst so many of the old I graduates that the entire hall will be occupied with the tables. During the post-prandial l exercises, in old times the pleasantest hour l of Commencement week, the galleries will | probably be opened to spectators and should l there be a lack of alumni to fill the tables ! possibly their wives will be invited to the va cant seats
