Extra Session Of the Senate.-The
Washington correspondents again as
sert with much positiveness that Secre-
tary Blaine has call of an extra
session of the Senate which was duly
signed by the President before this
last relapse, which will be issued in n
few days at most.
1t will be remembered that the Re-
publican members of the Senate re-
fused to allow President protein. to
be elected at the late session because
the choice would have fallen on De-
mocrat-Mr. Bayard. Since that
time the Secretary OF the Senate has
died, so there would now be no officer
authorized to call that body together
and preside while new officers could
be elected unless the Senate shall
meet before Vice President Arthur
becomes President through the death
of Mr. Garfield. Therefore. in view
of great probability Of Mr.. Garfield 5
death at an early day, it is asserted
that Mr.. Blaine will issue the call and
convene the Senate while the
Vice-President is competent to pre-

DEMAND FOR AMERICAN WHEAT

DEMAND FOX AMERICAN WHEAT
A few weeks ago it was generally be-
lieved that there would be no great demand
from Europe for American wheat, but re-
cent information proves this opinion to be
unfounded. The crops in Germany and
Hungary, though better than for some years
past, will do but little more than supply the
home demand. The wheat crop in Algeria
is, according to recent dispatches, in a de-
plorable condition. The dispatches within
the past few days have announced that the
State department at Washington had re-
ceived information of a deficit in the wheat
crop of France of 100000 bushels, which
must be supplied mainly from the United
States. Another dispatch asserts that the
crop in the great grain-producing countries
of Europe is far from what was anticipated
and everything indicates that this country
will be called upon to supply the deficit for
all of Europe. Our own wheat crop, I'M
fortunately, is short this year and the ship.
ments thus far made are much below those
of former years.

A CONSISTENT CRITIC.

Mr.. EDITOR: An article appeared in your
columns last week which has given the
writer local notoriety, although it has sub
iected him to ridicule. 1t was directed against
the town council, and suppose it was design
ed, like the threats Of the citizen of Hanleln,
to make our
"Mayor and corporation
Quake with mighty consternation."
If that was its object the "Citizen" has GER
tainly failed. Several years ago the present
Mayor and Wardens were elected by large
majority, and since that time they have been
reelected by an almost unanimous vote. This
is all the proof that any one in fairness can
demand of their consistency in the past. Our
street lamps; our well kept pavements; the
good department that is preserved, g i've am
pie testimony to their vigilance in the dis
charge of their duty. Why is it that one
man--if he is man-raises his sickly, misan-
threpic ;dyspeptic complaints because our town
council have made mistake? Has he been
forced to face our preservers Of the peace as
culprit, and in consequence is nursing his
wrath to keep it warm?" Has he been de-
taated as a candidate for the mayorship? 1t
does seem 50. Defeated candidates are very
viudictive nova days. There is not the
least doubt but that the ''gambling concern
was injurious to the community; but it was
a mistake that any man or body of men were
liable to commit, and the man who so bitterly
censures the few faults and does not as public
ly praise the many merits of our council, only
betrays his bitterness of soul. In his refer
ence to the town ordinance prohibiting bar
ber shops to be opened on the Sabbath, "Cltl
zen" seems to miss his Sunday mornings
shave; and there again he exhibits want OF
consistency and morality which is remark.
able in one who is censuring the faults OF
others. We would inform "Citizen" that the
violation of the Sabbath is to all good peo-
pie as great an evil as gambling. The "Citi-
zen" appears to be just about as incon'
consistent as the worthy council. The only
difference is, that he wishes the barber shops
opened on Sunday and gambling prohibited,
while the council forbid the proclamation OF
the Sabbath and permit the '"gambling con-
cerns." 20 consistency, thou art jewel"
when those who censure others cannot bear
the light of criticism. A. X. 7.
