 The result of the recent duel in Hungary between Baron Maythenvi, famous pistol shot, and an editor, is likely to be unfortunate for the nnbles. They continue to maintain the same attitude toward all classes outside their own which their grand fathers did. entirely obvious of the march of intellect, and regard themselves as totally different from other men. A middle class, growing rich in trade and manufacture, has meantime come into ex- istence; they are no longer any serfs. and the preposterous arrogance and assumption of the nobles will scarcely be endured much longer
 SirGarnet Wolseley has finished the fifteenth chapter of his Life of Marlborough under curious circumstances. The night after the dinner at Pretoria, where he made the final annexation speech which so irritated the Boers, word came that hostile demonstration was threatened. Sir Garnet sat up all night in consequence, and to beguie the time brought the story of his brother warrior down to the battle of Blenheim. With respect to this great fight he puts forth an opinion wich will pro- yoke criticism. that that victory was not SO much due to Marlborough's nlastery generalship as to the gross bunders of the French Marshal
 A woman correspondent of the Springfield Republican is able to discover wide differ ence between two kinds of Washington soce- ty. The regular residents are livery charming, cordial, and hospitable, taking in strangers and caring for them with unwearying kindness and an unobtrusive watchfulness which is the ve- " essence of true hospitality" But the po- ltlcal or official society, according to this an thority, lis wild, disgusting scramble for place and precedence, full of envyings, heart burnings, and hate, yelled under the polite and lying guise of sOcietys mask. It is anus ing, too, to watch it from the outside, for it has it's absurd phases"
 Paris is still complaining of unusual cold Some of the old terrors of winter in France have gone by forever as far as the capital is concerned, for, however severe the frost. wolves do not now troop through the streets in search of food.bnt the criterion of the years severity, the freezing of the Seine. remains the same This river has been frozen over only nine times during the century one of the most sud- den and intense frosts of that peron being that of 1867, when the Paris and London steam packets were ice bound just as if they had been in the Arctic seas From 1910 to 1914 the Seine was annually frozen over.. <

The Ladies' Sociable held Mum meeting at the house of Orlando Sw lift, last week, on Wednesday. The number in attendance was quite large, and we will give evidence to the fact, that the gift of speech IS never more prized than when it must be bought with price. Of all sociables Mum sociable is the most sociable, and according to our experience the most profitable. There were four ladies who remained silent the entire evening, but as we have not heard from them since, we are not sure they survived the trial.

SAVINGS BANKS PROSPEROES.

The gratifying fact that the savings banks
are enjoying exceptional prosperity has been
known; unOillCially, for some time past. The
annual report of the Bank Superintendent now
gives the exact details Of this good fortune to
the community. There were $1,000, ,OOO
more on deposit in the savings banks of the
State on the 1st of January, 1880, than on the
1st of January, 1879 The number of dcposi-
tors increased i'll the intervening year by
$4,000. The number of accounts opened dur
lug the year 1879 WAS $1,000 greater than the
number opened during 1873. The number of
accounts closed during 1879 was 10000 less
than the number closed during 1873. The
total amount Withdrawn from the banks during
1879 was $25,OOOOOO less than during the
year before. These facts give the strongest
possible testimony to the restoration of uniycr-
sal confidence in savings banks. A further
contrast of some of these figures with those Of
the year 1873 will be still more Instructive
In that year the number of dcpO ;ito:s fell cif
$4,000, and tie decline in the dcpo =, rs

thus replies to Il N letter dated March 80, 1880:
"I am not as we'll informed as formerly OF what IS
doing politically, and had not seen the preposteroas
accusation against Governor Seward to which your
letter refers. Messrs. Wade. Winter Davis sum-
ner etc., prominent and active in favor of the NOM
ination Of Chase in 1884, were equally active in
an effort to force Governor Seward out Of Mr. Lin;
coins Cabinet. The most cordial confidence ana
Secretary Seward from the hour when the latter
went into the Cabinet up the hour Of the assass-
other Not only Governor Seward himself but bis
friends were openly and decidedly opposed to the
Chase movement" The attempt to connect Cover
nor Seward with that political movement, made so
late and probably from personal motive. is so ab-
suru as to be trivial.

adopting this policy depends upon wi at the
further inquiry would have disclosed. They
probably know best. But at all events they
are now likely to suffer great Inconvenience
from the lack of scapeGoat. Having seen fit
to vindicate Mr.. Tilden without fixing the guilt
upon anybody else, they will find that whether
they nominate that gentleman or not the scan

even to the discovery of jewery in his possession
which was obtained in this way. The lowest
abyss is reached with Superintendent Gaylers
suspicion that this writer of religious plays and
bright social comet had been robbing the letter
boxes in Pittsburg. This is about as low as
gentleman" even with stolen coat of arms
can get, and opens still another way OF reducing
WiliamsOn's social advantages
The gas companies have entered into an ex-
ceedngly comfortable and friendly partnership.
Not only are their prices increased 90 per cent
for the small consumers at least, but they have
agreed also to employ no canvassers, and
to attempt no competition of any sort.
Each company is to be supreme in its
own territory, and is to, be allowed to
"farm" it, very much in the manner OF
the Turkish tax -gatherer. 1t is even pro-
posed to compel the consumer to deal, not with
the company he prefers, but with the company
the combination selects for him. The name OF
a hotel-keeper is given in our local columns
who learned that he would not be allowed to
change his gas company, inasmuch as the treaty
of union forbade any business rivalry. Ihe
old phrase which describes corporations as SER
wants of the public sounds grimly enough IN the
face of assumption like this.
Our Washington correspondence gives care
full abstract of the proposed Bankrupt law,
which comes before Congress with the distin-
guished sanction of Judge Lowell as its author,
and with the support of many leading lawyers
and business men, One great cause OF COM
plant under the old law-that of excessive fees
has been removed. The officers whose ap-
pointmcnt is provided for i'll the act are placed
upon moderate salaries. Such fees as are re-
quired are to he regulated by reasonable
schedule, and the costs of bankruptcy proceed
ings will be made to depend somewhat upon the
amount of assets, bearing lightly where there is
little to meet them. The powers OF the Register
are much increased, and he is raised more nearly
to the rank of judge. A new office is created,
that of Supervisor of Bankruptcy. who will ex-
ercise about the same supervision over bank
ruptcy cases as a National bank examiner ex-
crcses over National banks. The bill shows
thorough and intelligent work. and is likely to
meet with favor
