The Past Week in Chicago.
The pasthyeek has been an unusually good
one for all the leading Chicago theatres, pub
lie patronage having been extended alike to
music and the drama in q most generous
fashion. Undoubtedly the success of the
season thus far has been the engagement OF
Mr.. John T. Raymond in Fresh, the Amer
icai,,'' at cVicker's, the house having been
crowded ateveIy performance to witness the
really 1auga,able incidents of. the piece.
mr. Raymond has more genuine American
hunlor in him than any~ comedian now
OIL the stage, and has proven himself
able to acceptably present types Of American
character that one sees every day, and that
1laye in them the material for abundant
laughter His Fresh is not in any sense a
repetition or CODY of Col Sellers, but it is a
lifeljke portrait Of the go~ai,ead, stop-at-
nothing: Wall-street broker-a man who
makes money easily and loses it with even
greater facility, but wifo is never cast down
or disheartened by the hard knocks Of ILL
fortune. Indeed, 1fr. Raymond is somewhat
Of this style Of man himself, having made at
least one fortune and allowed it to slip from
hin. 49,. @..
At IIooIey's Mr.. John a: Stevens has not
been very successful, the houses, after the
opening hight, being somewhat microscopic
In proportions Blood and thunder does not
have the hold on Chicago that it did in the
days Of Woods Museum. Frank Frayne,

PRIORITY.

We are not opposed to granting
the charter to the Rome road, and
would deem It selEsh to deprive the
people along the proposed new line
Of railrosd facilities to help develop
their country. We are in favor Of
the road being built. Yet at the
same time we do not lose sight of the
legal proposition that the State has
prior claim 10 protecting her prop
erty from loss or depreciation, just
as the State has prior claim over the
private citizen 10 the suspended
Rome Bank and Citizens Bank 10
deposits. The Supreme Court has
so decided. However,, the Rome
road will be built and built speedily,
and its friends need not get unduly
excited.

He describes some of the preaching
as able. Morgan and one or two
of the elders are we'll educated.
but the balance from their looks and
talk, he judged to be rather illiterate
and incapable of accomplishing
alone any great deal in their line
The preaching was strictly orthodox,
and expressions tending to reveal
the inwardness of Mormonism as
practiced in Utah were carefully
avoided. The Mormons claim thst
they have l3l members in Georgia,

WHO?

IT will be remembered that GAR
land. Baysrd and other Democrats
rather reluctantly acted with their
brethren last spring in preventing
the election of officers of the Senate.
They did so solely on the grounds
the Senate had an efficient Secre>
tary and Sergeant at Arms. By the
death of Mr.. Burch which occurred
last week, a vacancy in the prin'
cipal office is created, and an cleo
ton will probably take place imme-
diately on the assembling of the Sem
ate. The only question is as to
whether it shall be before or after
the swearing in of the Senators from
New York. If before, Democrat
will be elected. If after, a Republi>
can. If a Republican it will of
course be the caucus nominee, Cor
ham, friend of Conkling, and enemy
of the administration. There is no
in stance recorded of second nomi-
nation by caucus under such cir
cumstances.

and made daily speeches against the
doctrines preached by the Methodist
ministers. He was q great annoy
ance to the Christians, and they
tried hard to con vert bin. but all 10
vain. One day a impulsive cler-
gyman prayed that, if Sheppard
could be siIenced 10 no other way,
he might be removed by DEATH
That evening the in6del died very
suddenly, and i. would be difficult
to convince the people tbersabout
that he was not killed 10 direct an-
aver to prayer.

interesting story Of 10 mysterious tor

for an equally mysterious Mr.. Hol-
land, who absolutely refuses to an
ever any questions. The boat was
two years building and it is now
pronounced marvel of its kind,
running for miles under water and
admirably answering the purposes
for which it is designed. 1t has
been learned that DR.. William Carr
roll, connected with the Irish skirm-
ishing fund, is interested in the craft,
and there is strong reason to sup>
pose that it was built for the FEM,

Hanover, Pa, has a creamery
which commenced operations two
months ago, and is an object of Gu
riosity to those who never saw but,
ter, cheese and ice cream made in
wholesale lots by steam. Nearly
1000 gallons of milk are bought
daily from farmers, and crowds OF
wagons are at the place during milk
delivery hours in the morning. The
creamery turns out daily 1875 or
more pounds of butter, Il or Is
cheese weighing 35 pounds apiece,
besides quantities of ice cream, all Of
which products fiod steady market.
Rich Luttermilk is sold at the
creamery enough to supply the town
at 5 cents gallon. 1t would seem
that these creameries which are
springing up over Pennsylvania are
making money

The Washington Post, discussing
the complication arising from the
Senate Secretaryship, made vacant
by the death of Col. Burch, says !;
Right here will arise the question as
to whether an election should be
held before or after the admission
Of the new Senators from New York.
Ia the one case, the Democrats
having control of the Senate, may
elect the Secretary. In the other,
the Senators being seated before an
election is had, it is the next thing
to a certainty that, with the vots of
Malone and the Vice~Prssident,
Republican will be chosen"

There has been subscribed 10 Il

There has been subscribed 10 the
North and 10 Europe in the past
eighteen months one hundred nils
lion dollars for investment 10 the
South. This statement sounds mar
velous, and yet it can be easily
shown to be true. 1t may be stated, ,
however, that in this estimate none
of the vast sums invested in the
Southwest are included. In other
words, this enormous sum of money
covers investments.snd developments
only in that part of the South east
of the Mississippi river and south of
Richmond, Virgins. Of course,
the largest sums have been subscribe
ed for the purchase and building of
railroad lines. The effect of this
has been to improve the roads all
ready built, to develope new sec
tions Of trade and quickeniug old
ones. and to take trom Southern
hands, at advanced prices, large

1t would seem tba. Ingersoll him
self would be forced to acknowledge
the truthfulness of the following
from the New York Graphic :
when great griefs come, material
lam has nothing to offer for cousOla
ton. 1t believes in nothing but
what it sees, and it sees very little.
1t is weakness itself in the face of it's
misery. It resorts to the gratifica
ton of the lower appetite to drown
its SORROWS, and by so doing buries
itself deeper and deeper in the
slough Of deSpond. As it scouts al
prayer it destroys the only step by
which the soul may lift itself up &c
those high plsnes of thought and
feeling whereby being becomes nc
longer the slave Of earthly pleasure,
and wherein the world, the flesh
and the devil are put under foot
Without this state attained Perma-
nent happiness is impossible.
