Capt. Howgate is a very bad man, If half that
Is now said about him be true; and he ought to
be punished for all his misdeeds, when proven.
But even more than in his punishment is the
country interested in knowing how he could
get away with such vast sums of public money
as he is charged with and the alleged thefts and
forgeries not be discovered until now. If the
admirable system of checks and balances" we
hear so much about in connection with the
government funds and accounts Is of no more
avail than this case shows it to be, it is about
time for that branch of the service to be over
hauled and improved system which permits
or fails to discover such irregularities is about
as much to be condemned as the person who
takes advantage of it.

The news that the Swiss government has pro-

tiOnal SOcialistic Council on the territory Of
that republic and peremptorily expelled the
Russian agitator, Prince KrapOtkine, from
her borders, will not excite surprise in the
mind of those who keep careful watch Of cur
rent events. The fact is Switzerland has lately
become SO Overrun with nihlists, communists,
regicides, petroleumers and dynamiters, who
flock to her neutral ground for the purpose of
Matching up cOnspiracies and sending forth their
bloody threats of assassination and general
destruction, that it has come to be a serious
question with the great powers Of the continent
whether they will not some day quietly wipe

seif-protcctiOn, unless she takes some formal
action to prove that she does not sympathise
with that turbulent and dangerous element of
her population.

Persons who have been from any consideration
deluded into using what are called anti-fat rem

stuff, which resulted in acute blood poisoning,

FACTS.

Those contemplating q trip westward
will certainly do well to carefully con.
snlt the time tables Of the Baltimore and
Ohio road. Its celebrated fast trains,
its sure connections, and rates always as
low as the lowest. make it beyond all
controversy the best line west. Colo
pists are carried in first class cars on fast
trains, and every possible care is taken
to insure aomfort and convenience,
Trains run through without change oi
cars to Chicago, where direct connection
is made with all leading lines to the
west, northwest and southwest, making
but single change of cars to Iowa,
Kansss, Nebraska, Texas, Minnesota,
etc. No other line can offer such advan.
tages as the Baltimore and Ohio.-Its
costs but very little time and trouble
to learn this. and in the end may lead
to tie saving of much Of both as vel as

Educating Horses.

Horses can be educated to the extent
of their understanding as children, and
can be easily damaged or ruined by bad
management. We believe that the dif-
ference found in horses as to vicious
habits and reliability, comes much more
from the different management OF men
than from variance or natural disposi-
ton In animals. Horses with high met
tie are more easily educated than those
of less or dull spirits, and are more sus-
ceptible TO ill-training, and consequent
ly may be made good or bad, according
to the education they receive.
Horses with dull spirits are not by
any means proof against bad manage
ment, for in them may be found the
most provoking obstinacy, vicious hab-
its of different characters that render
them almost entirely worthless. Could
the coming generations of horses in this
country be kept from their days of colt.

hands of good, careful managers, there

objects, it will not be skittish and ner

I~The Old World is unpeopling
itself on our shores. Nearly sixty
thousand immigrants arrived in th,
month just ended at Castle Garden alone,
Boston, Baltimore and other ports no
doubt have thousands more to add to
this volume, which surpasses anything
ever known in the history of the coun-
try. Tyranny, crushing taxation, militia
ry oppression, bad crops, grasping land
lords, governmental spy systems, and
laws that repress hopes Of advancement,
contrasted with the freedom and the
prospect of happiness offered on this
side of the ocean, are doubtless the
causes Of this vast wave OF immigration.

Pope Leo.

Leo XIII appears to be decidedly
enigmatical parsonage, If we may trust
the account given of him by the, Rome
correspondent of the Cologne Gazette.
The most striking fact about him SO far
appears to be the slight extent to which
bis character is known, either by the
faithful st large or by the inmates OF
the Vatican. Every one knew how Plus
TX lived; his hours we're all allotted be-
forehand, and the same duties always
performed at the same moment. There
is total want of this regularity in his
successor. He keeps late hours, and
has sometimes been found by his SER
wants at his desk in the early morning,
half dszed after writing half the night ?
He has all his meals served TO him in
the greatest privacy, is much more spar
ing of audiences than was Plus, and
even his State Secretaries and the Car
dinals can only see him at irregular in.
tervals. One thing is clear, that Leo
XIII means to be master in his own
house but the exact aim and tendency
of bis policy are by no means equally
evident.
