the cough, aIlay and heal the irritat ID
parts. Aliens Lung B4lsam will break
up the cough in an incredible short
time; also prevent the formation of tu-

Attenpts upon Qaeea victoris's Life.
The most blameless sovereign Europe
has ever had-Queen Victoria-has not
been free from the danger 0f assassina-
ton by lunatics. Her death could pro-
duce no change il the established order
Of the Government. She has barely the
shadow Of political power. i royalty
were abolished, Great Britain could not
be freer country than 1t u. Yet the
Queen has been three times shot at,
once struck in the face, once threatened
with . loaded and with an unloaded
pistol. The first attempt uron the
Queens life was made June 10,
lS4O. BY Edward Oxford, lad Of
II. He fred two shots deliberately,
hut missed. His was much the same
kind Of Q character ~ Gniteau'4 He
was half-crazy with longing for no
toriety. He was pronounced insane by
a iury. and sentenced to be confined in
! lunatic asylum during her Majestys
pleasure. John Francis, sOn OF ma
chinist in Drury Lane, fred at the
Queen May 80, l842, from the very spot
where Oxford had stood He was but
few feet from the carriage, which fort
unately Was driving at . rapid pace,
and missed his aim. He was condemned
to death, but his sentence was COM
muted to imprisonment for life. The
| very day after this mitigation Of punish
ment became known, . hunchbacked
boy named Bean made another attempt
| on the Queens life. He presented 4
pistol at her carriage, but was not per
mitted to fire it. The pistol was loaded
with powder, paper tightly rammed
down, and some scraps Of clay pipe.
Bean was imprisoned eighteen months.
An Irish bricklayer named Hamilton
fired i pistol loaded only with powder
At her Majesty May 10, 1849, on Con-
stitution Hill, where two previous at
tempts had been made. His sentence
was soven years transportation. Robert
Pate. 4 cashiered Lieutenant Of hussars,
struck her Majesty in the face with .
stick May q, 1850. His sentence alse
was seven years transportation. Arthur
O'Connor, q hoy Of II. presented al
unloaded pistol at the Queen, Feb. 20
1872. He Was whipped and imprisoned
for . year. The modified Law, which
authorizes whipping to be prescribed il
the discretion of the Judge, is though
, to have had the effect Of discouraginl
attempts upon the Queens life.

THE
Public ledger. [volume] (Memphis, Tenn.) 1865-1893, 1881-02-10

the Chicago Argus, a monthly pc
riodical in magazine form, devoted
mainly to transportation and insurance
questions. makes the Alpena disaster
of last October the text Of a very
forcible article. which will be found
in this issue of the LEDGER. The
Argus takes the position that corpora
tions should be held responsible the
same as individuals when, by neglect
and ayarice, they cause loss Of life or
damage to person. The coroner's jury,
after long and careful investigation,
found that the owners Of the Alpena,
under the name Of corporation, were
criminOlly negligent and reckless. In
their greed for gain they were utterly
unmindful Of the safety Of those in
their employ, and of all who travelled
on their line. BY some means they
lmauaged to have a a.rotton ard unsafe
1vessel pass inspection. The Alpena
was utterly unseaworshy as unfortu-
.nately discovered when oolate. When
it struck storm and the test came, ii
went down and all on board, some
eighty in number, were lost, not one
surviving to tell the tale. Pbisis a
stattling but not a solitary in
stance where life has been lost
through the greed and selfshness Of
soulless corporations. Morally, this
is murder, as deliberate as the shooting
of a man on the highway from ambush
And the time is coming, as the coun-
try becomes moro densely populated
and the public peril increases, when
all public carriers will be held Grim
inally liable for such murder as this

CHICAGO, February l0.-Some days
ago government detectives discovered
that theits Of mail matter we're being
committed on the mail cars between
Roche ter and here on the Lake
Shore and Michigan Southern trains,
and several arrests were made last
night. The police made what they
consider the most important arrest for
five years, in the person of John P.
Leist, young man Of good appearar &c
who has been assistant weigher at the
postoGice. On his person were found
documents and money to a large
amount, and under his lead the Off
GERS discovered in a house Of i'll fame
on the South Side an addition a
amount Of valuables, some Of them in
the original envelopes The total
amount recovered is from $4,000 to
$4,000.
His method was to cut slit in the
mail pouch and abstract the letters
His arrest was not made until about
midnight, and the officials, both Of
city and postoilice, absolutely refused
for some unknown reason, to give any
information about him. These facts
are obtained from sources outside, but
are reliable When captured Leist
tried to bluff the officers, but was
taken to the station, and when an ex.
animation revealed his guilt, he made
full confession. He is recognized as
an old crook.
