SECRETARY BLAINE is the only men,
Der of the Cabinet who has seen the
President since the day after he was
shot, and that was when it become neces-
sary to secure the Presidents signature
to an extradition document. The Presi-
dent asked him to turn down the sheets
and see how he had been reduced. This
the Secretary did. He is quoted as hay
ing said that the President reminded
him of an Andersonville prisoner.

The census bureau reports that the
mines in the anthracite coal regions in
the year 1880 lost or per cent of the
year in strikes. A careful computation
based on the total number of men and
boys employed shows that taken, all to-
gether thew were idle because of strikes
time equal to one days labor for 1884,
OS2 men and boys. As the average wages
per day was $1.43 their total loss of wages
from strikes was $21O,257.26. An enor-
nous sum to be cast away by blindly fol-
lowing the advice of idle blatherskites
who live on trades union agitation, and
keep their hands soft and white by it.

THERE is some serious talk of lynching
Guiteau in the event of the Presidents
death. great class of people would,
of course, discountenance any attempt
of the kind, but there are many who are
impatient that the assassin should live,
and the officers having him in charge are
said to be taking extra precautions for
his protection.

The shipment of railway cars to
foreign countries is hopeful sign. Last
month no less than one hundred and ten
cars left the port of New York for foreign
countries, which makes total of two
hundred and sixty-eight cars, valued at
$277, 4SS, shipped since the LIST of January.
During the same time, fifty-two locomo-
tives. valued at $55O,OOO, were also ex-
ported, and 6,371 car wheels. This is an
enormous increase over past years.

TORONTO is enough interested in the
construction Of the Hennepin Canal to
send a letter to the Canal Commission
urging that the canal be speedily con-
structed. With rate from Chicago to
Liverpool of 16 cents, the rate from st.
Paul to Liverpool via Chicago could be
made, with the Hennepin Canal in opera
ton, much lower than by way Of New
Orleans.

ATLANTA, Ga, has test case Of extreme
delicacy on her hands. Some time
ago the Police Commissioner ordered the
arrest of cOlored people who entered the
City Hall Park. Welsey Redding, a
young cOlored man, was arrested, put on
trial, and was discharged. Later he was
driven from the park by the police, who
declared that they had orders to drive all
negroes out. Redding now brings suit,
under the civil rights bill, against the
city for $4,000 damages. The first count
holds the city liable for damages directly
under the civil rights law. 1t alleges
that Welsey Redding suffered injuries
by reason Of his race and color. The
second count holds the city liable be-
cause of trespass and detention ofperson
and restraint of liberty, of which he was
deprived, by reason of his race and color.
The third and last count holds the
city liable because the city failed to
protect him in his rights, privileges, and
immunities, under the laws of the Uni
ted States; instead thereof oppressed
him and denied him said rights. The
case will be pushed by a prominent
Democratic lawyer, and there is much
excitement among the Bourbons in At
lanta.

THE report of the chief of the bureau
of statistics, just issued, is a document
highly satisfactory to the business men
of the United States. 1t shows that, dur
ing the year which ended July 81 we ex-
ported and sold to foreign countries
$256,G91, SOL worth of merchandise more
than we imported. During the same
period we received from abroad $9o,666,-
977 more coin and bullion than we ex-
ported. During the year we exported
1856, 722, 731 worth of merchandise, while
we imported $633972,221 worth. We
imported more and exported less, how
ever, than we did the previous year. But
the total balance of trade in our favor
for the year was $347, 1855, 56S-a pretty
fair showing for one years business.
Just now gold is coming to this country
in large quantities from England. But
we cannot expect quite SO good show
ing for the present year, perhaps, on ac-
count of our diminished harvests and
the good harvesGs of Europe, though there
are now no signs that the balance of
trade will change mucb-it will pro-
badly remain in our favor by q dimin-
ished amount.

FOREIGN dispatches indicate that the
poor harvest of the present year will
practically put an end to wheat farming
in England. The immense crop that is
being harvested this year in America,
although not so large as that of last
year in proportion to the acreage, is
sufficient to supply the domestic demand,
and leave surplus that will fill Eng
lands needs.

Up AT THE COURT HOUSE.

1t cannot be said everything is in
"apple pie order" at the new Court
House, but enough order has been
evolved from the chaos of removal
to enable the country officials to nt-
tend to the public wants. The Re
corder of Deeds was the first to get
his Office in ship shape condition, as
he was not burdened with small
bundles of documents, and his large
dockets were readily arranged. Next
In order was the Sheriff, and
the Clerk of the Peace, by his
unusually active exertions, restored
his mass of papers to a condition Of
order, and is now ready for the pub
lie demands. The Register of Wills
has nearly finished the arrangements
of bis office, while the Prothonotary
and Clerk of the Orphans Court
are still wrestling with a great mass
OF papers and records, which running
back for hundred years or more,
must be so arranged ON the shelves
that they can be brought to hand at
an instant's notice. BY the close of
the week 1t is expected that every
office will be in complete regular
order, though meanwhile the officials
are giving due attention to all public
business that comes along.
