OFF with His Mend.

SpeclnI 10 The 81 Louis Republlcan.
Within the four walls OF his quiet room In
the Treasury building, q Treasury Department
official was today asked by an associate
whether no had yet responded to tho demand
made by Hubbell's circular. The oficlal is an
unusually blunt, bold man, and he replied
cent; and I'll give you the reason. The Re-
publicans In Congress- want 10 be reelected,
and they want 70 carry the next House. And
they've appointed Congressional committees
10 manage their campaign. That's all we'll
enoughj but In order to carry tho close dis
tricts they are asking US 10 contribute money.
In former years have contributed the amount
demanded by their circular, but the Republi.
cans In this Congress have made such darned
fools OF themselves that don't believe they
deserve any aid from Government clerks.
Thoy have managed things $50 badly this Sos
sion that they ought 70 be compelled, unaided,
10 work out their own salvation II they can"

THE ABSENCE OF any explanation OF the dis.
appearance OF the private official letter books
kept during General Brady's administration Is
very suggestive OF the looseness OF the busi-
ness methods which obtained in his oiIlce,-
Lying and Vendi ". \. Times.
The writer and publisher of the above
must have read the testimony on the sub
ject of those letter books, or he would not
have known that they had disappeared. If
he read the testimony, ho must have
known that Mr.. Lyman, whom not oven
the Times own 'hireling libeler'' Root
will accuse Of being friendly t, the de-.
fense, testified that the books now missing
were in the Office some months after Gem
eral Brady left it. Now, knowing ali these
facts, the editorial "hirelin5 libeler'' Of
the Times writes and publishes the above,
which is intended, in sneaking way, to
convey the imputation that the General
himself was responsible for their disap
pearance. This is sample lie-one among
many thousands.

Light Alcoholic Beverages Promote
Real Temperance.

IHiIiiutIpbu AeCOfus
few years since in those old countries
where light wines were the common beverage
drunkenness was vice that was hardly known.
OF late years the almost complete failure OF
tho vintage has driven the people to seek some
other drink, aud q serious evil is the result.
Thus tho increasing consumption IN Alsace.
Lorraine Of tho cheap, common spirits from the
beet distilleries OF North Germany, favored at
once by three years of bad yield OF white wine
In tho yosges and the high duties on French
red wines, has greatly increased drunkenness
among the artisan and agricultural population.
This condition of things was discussed at q
recent meeting of the Society OF Sciences, Agri
culture and Arts OF Basse-Alsace, and the In
dustral Society of Mulhouse recently offered
prize for brochure, TO be distributed among
the working classes, depicting vividly the
evils OF alcoholism, and tending to inspire q
horror OF 1t. In some parts of France CNor.
mandy, &c) dlsquietude is being felt on the
same account In Paris the lower classes arc
using beer as substitute for their former UtR
OrdiRaire, but the brew is impure, and in no
way to be compared with the lager beer OF
this country and Germany. larger quantity
OF absinthe is also used, and the habit is hav-
Ing marked effect upon the population. DR..
Claude attributes tho rapid dopopulation OF
Rouen mainly TO the abuse of spirits. In the
three years 1S77'7S'70 the excess OF deaths
over births in that town was successfully 30S

Man Made the Town and He Keeps
IL Lively.

Ben: Perley PooreB Paper.
Much has been said at divers and sundry
times about the comparative advantages OF
country and city life, their opportunities for
enjoyment, etc., but some new light was
thrown on the subject yesterday by the CONVEX
sation OF two men who were overheard discuss
ing this important question. Said one.
"The city is insuirerably dull to me In tho
summer. Everybody seems listless, the places
OF amusement are closed, and q walk about
town discloses little Of interest Now in the
country all Is different, and as one walks
through the fields or leafy lanes he sees an IN
ilnite number of pleasant things to interest
him-the birds on their nests or caroling to
the sun, sweet flowers, busy insects, and all
beautiful forms OF animate and inanimate
life. The city is dull indeed by comparison"
'Dulll" exclaimed the other; ~ don't think
go, and as for interest and excitement give me
the town, There is plenty TO see II q man
keeps his eyes open. Why, on my way down
town this morning saw two dog.nghts, man
fired out OF a saloon for trying to beat the bar
keeper for drinks and horse fall into a hole
whore they were repairing the street railway,
aud most every day you can sec policeman
run in woman for being drunk, and when
there's q tireIby hockey the countrys no.
The lover OF rural sights and sounds had
nothing to say after this forcible presentation
CT the attractions OF the city.

"RoBEsoN has established an organ at
Camden to advocate his denomination"
says an exchange. This is probably untrue.
Robson doesn't need any organ 50 long as
the New York Sun continues publication
under its present management. The abuse
of the Sun, which doesn't cost him cent,
is worth more to Robson than the "advo-
cacy" of a Thousand organs could be.
Strange that some people are so blind.
Robson is sure of the confidence and re-
spect Of his constituents 50 long as Dana
lives and controls the Sun. What more
could man want2 We hear it as a solemn
fact that Robson actually distributes the
Sun in his district as "a campaign document.
Sly old chap, the Rotund He eknows what's
good for him.

THE report from Bombay Of mutiny or
strike among the Mahommedan sailors en-.
ployed on board the transports hired to
carry Sepoy troops to Egypt is the most
important event thus far developed by the
existing Eastern complication. If the re.
port is true, it means that the Mohamme-
dams of India are with Arabi Bey, and that
means well nigh threat at the very ex-
istence of England's colonial empire.

which the affairs of the District should be

The GAS FACTORY on the Hill has taken
up so much of our time and space that we
have been unable to pay our respects to the
Washington Gaslight Company lately. But

regularity of the presentation of their
bills for gas never consumed, and the mis-.
cradle quality of the gas used, preclude
our forgetting them.

We judge from an idiotorial in the decay.

all events, between the two his gorge rose

infallibly whether THE CRITIC is gaining
ground or not by reading the EDITORIALS OF

that ever prompts us to read them.

WE LEARN that the American marines
have been safely reshipped. Admiral
Nicholson has withdrawn from the Euro
pean concert, and American interests arc
in statu quo. We think, however, that it
would be unwise to withdraw our fleet from
Egyptian waters at present. In case of q
general European war we might get q
chance to sell our ships for something more
than the cost of navigating them home.
They could be utilized in almost any Eu.
ropean navy as transports or hospital ships.

after long discussion of their favorites,
one of them leaned back in the buggy,
let the lines drop loose, and said:
"You ought to have seen Suke. Ali

was whole team, and boy to drive, 1

''Broke to harness 2" asked his friend.
"Well, now, you bet she wac though

A Talented Negro.

s. A. Butler, the head of the Shang-
hal Navigation Company, is remark
able man. He is negro, reared in the
United States, being the son of preacher
in Washington. He was educated in
Paris, and became master of the French,
German and italian languages. Having
attracted the attention of Ansen Bur-
lingame, he became that Minister'S Priv
ate Secretary and accompanied him to
China. Then he soon left the embassy,
was employed by an American trading
house, and later by the Shanghai Navi-
CATION Company. At length the steamers
Of that company were bought by a num-
Der of Chinese merchants, who took
Butler into their employ, and authorized
him to reorganize the steam service at
his own discretion. He managed affairs
SO successfully that at the end of two
years the company had net profit OF
81 100000. The corporation now owns
thirty-six steamers, and is becoming a
formidable rival of European steamer
owners, with whomit is about to con-
tend for the supremacy of the Pacific.
All of which has been accomplished by
the genius of black man. Virginia
(NeU.) Chronicle.
