institution of learning. But the ladies do
not propose to rid themselves entirely of
the care of the institution by turning it over
to the city-they have become attached to
it, and propose to continue to make its
prosperous growth the object of their care,
even after the council shall have taken
charge of it, They will continue to con
tribute what they can to its stock of in
formation, and also to lend gratuitous SER
vices in its management. Thus the cost to
the city would be comparatively little
consisting only of the appointment of
librarian and the renting and
fittingiup of room if the one now occupied
by the library is not desired. And such
an outlay for such cause cannot be OBJ
jected to with any degree of dignity on the
score of economy; for the benefits which
are to be derived from the institution will
be general, and much exceed in value the
half mill tax on the dollar of the valuation
of city property required to maintain it.
Besides free public library for the young
men and old men, the young women and
the old women, it is asmuch necessity as is
the free public school for the young girls
and boys, and is proper that reasonable
amount of the public funds be devoted to
the maintenance of both. 1t is to be
hoped therefore, that the council will re-
gard the proposition of the library associa-
tion with favor.

AT a republican caucus held in Philadel-
phia on Saturday, the following nomina-
tons were made; For speaker of the feder-
al house of representatives, Warren Keifer,
of Ohio; for clerk of the house, Mcpherson,
of Pennsylvania; for sergeant alarms,
Hooker, of Vermont; for door keeper,
Brownlow, of TENNESSEE for postmaster,
Captain Sherwood, of Michigan; for chap
lain, Rev. j. Power. Considerable bitter
ness was cngendered in the Pennsylvania
delegation, because of the nomination Of
Mcpherson for clerk, and his nomination is,
by no means, believed TO be equivalent to
election. Mr. Keller is native of Spring
field, o., in the forty-seventh year of his
age. He entered the army az a private SOL
der in 1861, and was mustered out as a
major general in 1865. He was first
elected to congress in 1875, and has been
twice reelected

they are correct" One G. w. Pavcy was a
signor of that card. The Mt. Vernon News
has pushed the whole pack so closely to
| the wall that the Exponent now acknowl-
edges the charge of deficit, enters plea of
emotional imcompetency, talks the pitiful
lachrymose nonsense about Lindley being
a cripple, and with streaming eyes begs for
charity This fellow Pavey is seeking the
office of internal revenue collector for
southern Illinois, and a howl has gone up
from this selfsame Jefferson county gang
for the removal of j. G. Willis, for no other
reason than to create vacancy. Willis has
collected sums the total of which runs up
into the millions, and every cent has been
faithfully accounted for. If Pavey can't
see deficit of over $1,000 in little coun-
ty collector book, after it has been demon
strated by an itemized publication,
wouldn't he bea lovely thing to place in
such position as that held by Mr.. Willis?
Some confidential friend of Pavey, from
sense Of pity if nothing else, should take
him to one side and tell him to keep his
mouth shut. Esop's donkey with lions
skin was frightful thing to look upon;
but the first time he prayed he gave him
self clean away, and he became ever there
after an object of contempt That preten-
tious pelt called brigadier general of state
militia, which Cullom some time ago threw
over Pavey, is a failure. To be effective it
should be nonconductor of sound Its
possessor has been roaming around over
the country, with pompous military mien,
seeking whom he may devour somebody.
o temper! o mores! Pavey may argue
that he knew better when he signed that
card, but that, being an interested party,
he was compelled to do it, true or false.
Should all that be acknowledged, even then
his entire fitness for internal revenue col
lector would not be satisfactorily estab.
lished."

Chief Myers report to the mayor and
council for the month of November shows
that during the month the officers of the
city made one hundred and eleven arrests,
classified as follows: three for assault and
battery; three for burglary; four for con-
cealed weapons; fifty for disorderly con-
duct; twenty-eight for intoxication; three
for larceny; one for robbery; two on peace
warrants; nine for vagrancy, and eight for
sundry offenses. The report shows mark
ed decrease in the total number of arrests
and still more marked decrease in the
number of cases of drunkenness, which is
but two over half what it was the month
before. 1t cannot be said that this de-
crease is due to any lack Of energy on the
part of the officers; for the fact that, with
one or two exceptions, all violators of the
ordinances, no matter to how small an ex-
text, have been promptly arrested and
brought into the courts to answer, is con-
elusive proof of their watchfulness and
energy. The only conclusion that can be
drawn from this decline in the number of
arrests is, that the number of criminals and
violations of law in the city during the last
month were less than during previous
months, and this is certainly gratifying.

Nearly year ago the war for the pos
session of the internal revenue collectorship
of this district, now, as then, held by Col. j..
G. Willis, ragged very ferceIy in Southern
Illinois. Mr.. Daniel Hogan, backed by
Mr. Joseph Robarts, of the Pulaski Patriot,
made very strong effort to raise himself to
that position by pulling Col. Willis down.
But it seems that Mr.. Hogan and his man
| Friday, of the Patriot, exhausted themselves
in the effort to attain their object and, see
ing that their pole was too short to reach
the persimmons, the fruit was permitted to
remain to be enjoyed by Col. Willis, even
unto the present day. Yet the war has
not entirely ceased. Others, believing
themselves possessed of a longer pole than
| Hogan's was, even with the Robarts splice,
are still making strenuous efforts to reach
the fruit. Among these others is one
Pavey, a man of many good qualities, also
of several bad qualities. Chief among the
former are military mantle which he
wears by the grace of Governor Cullom,
and blindness to fraud practiced under
his very nose, which seems to be his natural
inheritance. The Shawnee News, of Shaw
neetown, has something to say of Mr..
Pavey, which is not unnterestng reading,
and which it is well to know in view of his
ASPIRATIONS. II says as follows: "Recent-
ly the Mt. Vernon News, in addition to
number Of specific violations of the law,
charged that County Treasurer Linley's &C.
count showed deficit Of more than $4,000.

The spacious apartments of Mr..
Sidney Lacy, in the Baker Block,
were brilliantly lighted up last
night, shortly after seven O'Clock,
to grace the wedding of Miss r. e.
Williams to our enterprising young
insurance friend, Mr.. George
Drakenfeld. The bride is the sis
ter.in-lsw OF the host, and is a
beautiful and attractive young
lady. The ceremony was per-
formed by Rev. Father Peter Yer
daguer, and the twain were made
one by the impressive ritual OF the
Catholic church almost before one
could draw a breath. Mr.. George
Patton officiated as best man and
Miss Bandini as bridesmaid. A
sumptuous collation., furnished by
Monsieur Dol, of the Commercial
Restaurant, burdened the tables,
which were ornamented in the
lavish and tasteful style which
distinguishes that skIllful caterer,
