Thursday, he is writing it; don't tell him

don't tell him before Saturday night,
you never will tell him.

INTERESTING TO FRIENDS OF
PROHIBITION.

Kansas City Journal: At The open
ing of the grand lodge of Good Tenn
plars, which is now holding It's annual
session in St. LOUIS. some statistics were
presented which viii b. read with in.
terest By the friends of prohibition.
From an address delivered on behalf Of
the temperance societies of ST. Louis we
learn that there are supported ia that
city alone ], 700 saloons, andthat each on
an average sells 81 600 worth of spirita-
Gus liquors. It is estimated that il costs
the people 5000 900 annually IN the
shape of taxes to keep up these saloons,
and there is spent in them annually ST.
100000. The lax collected from them is
figured at $214, S7S, the larger portion Of
which is expended in keeping up police
stations, jails and pauper houses. The
Brewers association is alleged to have
on hand a fund of $4,000, which it
proposes TO use, if necessary, TO defeat
all attempts TO pass laws in the interest
of temperance. Col. VIM. +. Switzler,
the veteran editor of Columbia, who is
grand master of the supreme lodge,
states that the first grand lodge of Mis-
souri, templars was established in 81.

LITTLE Rock, Ark, Oct .2D.-The

Lindsay, a deputy sheriff. Constable
Cole, of Searcy township and Messrs.
Sullivan and Spears. special officers,
were returRihg from Esquire Brands
court last night, about $40 O'Clock,
with James Cunningham, Henry Lamar
and Willie Cunningham, men charged
with the attempted assassination oil, ]
w. MeE1ath, when near Pillows bridge
were charged upon by mob of fifty
men, As the mob rushed upon the
officers Lindsey drew a pistol and order
them to halt, but was Immediately con-
frOnted by three men with shotgans and
ordered TO keep quiet. The mob then
took the prisoners from the wagon to
the side of the road and
told Jim Cunningham to confess
before they shot He replied that
he was innocent Then several shots
We're fired at him, and he was left for
dead. The other two prisoners were re-
turned to the custody of the officers, who
brought them to this city and lodged
them in jail. They were disguised, but
one or two spoke a word, so it was i'm
possible TO recognize any of them. This
morning Squire Bennett summoned a
jury, and they proceeded and found the
body of Cunningham gone, but after q
search he was found thTee-quarters of a
mile distant, having crawled that dis
lance in the dark The attending physi-
Clans report that Cunningham's wound
is not dangerous, and he was jailed. He
has made statement, charging several
parties with shooting him, and war
rants have been issued for their arrest.
1t is thought that all of them can prove
an alibi. Cunningham seems to be bull
let proof, having been shot and, left for
dead several wears ago.

New York Trade Review-

New YoRK, Oct. 90 4lRhe Public says:
The exchanges, during the second week
OF October outside OF New York have
never been surpassed. except the first
of October. The rates inorease in CON-
parison with the corresponding week Of
last year very. nearly the same outside
and 1T this city; yet during that week

and business began as soon as the results
OF the westegn elections were known,
snlcs of stock suddenly rising to 541 500
sharts "Wednesday. No day last week
reported as large transactions in stocks,
but the traffic in merchandise wis large
and The remaining, after deducting
double the value of stocks sold, were
about $64O, G63 200. The sales of wheat
amounted to 12,S43,00 bushels, corn o.
5S1 goo bushels, oats 1881 600 BUSH
els, cotton 803,000 bales. These state,
ments, however, include dealings IN
phantom gram and cotton, or in futures
and options, in which the amount Of
money used is comparatively small.
The volume of legitimate business is re-
markably large, because money has be-
hrraking the grain blockade. The
streets are rarely more blocked with
loads of freights, when in q decent con-
dIiIon for hauling But the returns
show an improvement since last year,
almost as great in the aggregate as 9TH
er cities, and AT several important points
much greater. The returns show, after
all, reasonable allowances have been
made, thats5the volume of business
throughout the country is greater than
ever before. At the same time il is un-
dIsputably true that an undue and dan
gerous proportion of the business done
at Chicago and in a less degree at a few
other points, is speculative and un-
| healthy.

Another Interview with Tyner.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., Oct. I9.-Judge
Tyner was interviewed this morning
upon the subject Of the demand for his
resignation. He said he lad not re-
ceiVed such demand from the presi-
dent. lie was, however, aware that
strenuous efforts had been made to that
end upon Garfield, and supposed they
had been renewed upon Arthur. He is
certain to make a fight, not to hold on,
so much as TO defend himself against the
charges affecting bis integrity In such
fight there will be much light thrown
upon the management of the depart
mentduTing Hayes administration, when
it was given out that Tyner was the
responsible head. Being questioned as
TO the report upon the star route made
by him two years ago lie declined To say
more than that such a report was writ
ten, aud that the fault, if fault there was,
should not be settled upon him. He is
ready to meet any charges and is conf
dent that no official act of his will i'm
peach his integrity. II is thought the
facts brought out in his statement to the
President Will be of great interest 10 the
members of the cabinet of both the
Hayes and Garfield administrations
Judge Tyner docs no. think that Geuer-
al Garfield had ever expressed an init
nation of removing him. He claims 20
have strong evidence to the contrary.
He has received to-day many kilograms
of cor fidence and support.

Malone seems to be making it lively
for the Virginia Bourbons. 1t appears
that they have been trying to involve
him in the intricate and damag.
ing tolls of the dueling code. He was
arrested in Washington, d. O., one day
last week upon a complaint charging
him with intent to leaYe the District of
Columbia for the purpose of fighting
duel with General Early, of Virginia,
and was released on his own recog-
nlzance. He says he never intended
to meet General Early on the field of
honor; that Early is an old man, and
that resort 10 the code to viudi-
cate himself against the Early SIAN
ders, never entered his head. Ma
hone declares that he had resolved at
the beginning of the campaign to avoid
all personal difficulties, and had advised
his friends to do the same. He regards
the defamation and epithetS now direct
cd at himself and friends as a method OF
intimidation which will fail of its pur.
pose.
But the fact that duels are SO FIRE.
quenily mentioned in the progress OF
the Virginia campaign, shows the Ia
mentable condition of politics and
society there. Ostracism and intimida-
ton are no longer civilized weapons in
public affairs. There will be no sub
stantial progress in the sunny south
until the torch of general education
and liberality burns away the web of
prejudice, and the duelling pistols and
other emblems of a barbaroIs age are
eaten up by the rust of neglect.

EMBELLISHMENTS AND PANIC.

New York Mercantile Journal: Some
who have looked up the account say that
between July, 1878, and December 81,
1877, both inclusive, the names of more
than three hundred firms in this country
were published as embezzlers or de-
faullers in sums over $1,000, while
doubtless scores more escaped publicity.
In many cases the thefts amounted to
hundreds of thousands, in one or two to
millions. This is certainly most de-
plorable account. The writer is not only
reminded of what then occurred by the
frequent entertainments reported of late,
but asks whether this is now the sign of
coming business panic, as il proved both
sign and an accompaniment then? The
answer should be that it has at least an
unpleasant squint that way. The mania
for speculation then induced the embez-
elements, and was largely responsible
for the panic also. We have now an
equal or greater Juror for speculation,
but the other conditions are not equally
ripe for the panic. Embezzlers are pro-
duced more rapidly than panics, and
crop of the former coming to the light
may not Immediately precede the latter.
But our next panic is undoubtedly ON
its way. A multitude of speculative
enterprises already started Especially
railroad), and to be started within year
will bear their crops of disaster. When
the whole balloon becomes sufficiently
inflated it will be pricked and collapse
again inst as it has before.
The things which sensible men should
do is to keep clear of such dangerous
ventures; but the thing which honest
men sciH do is not to risk other peoples
money in these speculations, however it
may &c with their own. The very last
thing any man should think of is to
speculate with other peoples funds
committed to their care. The hundreds
of men, once high in social and business
life, but now many of them serving their
time in states prison, ought to be a
warning to all, especially to our young
men, not to touch the first dollar of such
money. Such way of speculation is the
sure road TO ruin. Stock and grain
speculation are dangerous enough when
the money risked is all ones own.

northern Democrat Take the election
OF Senator Davis TO the presidency of
the senate for example. The northern
Democratic journals have commented
upon il with ludicrous ferocity, and
have spared no epithets in venting their
anger at Judge Davis. The conduct OF
the southern Democratic press has been
a great contrast Ia this. They have
treated the subject calmly, saying thai
alter all il makes but little difference
and they do not rally see any cause fol

GRANT ON THE RRADJUsrERs

General Grant has written letter to
the chairman of the Republican State
Central Committee of Virginia, earnestly
urging the Republicans to sustain Cen
eral Malone and the Readjuster ticket.
He says the contest in Virginia is of
national interest and importance; and
that he regards the success of what is
called the Readjusters as working the
emancipation of all the voters of the
State. He adds:
1T is patent to my mind that at pres
ent, and for some years back, while
there is an acknowledgement of the right
of the colored citizen 10 vote, there is a
determination that his vote shall not de-
eide the success of a political party.
When this freedom of the ballot is given
TO all legal voters, Virginia will be In
condition to invite immigration of peo-
pie who Will add greatly to the resources
as well as to the population of the
state ~
