Failure Of COncessaon and Coercion

MR. GLADsToNn's DILnMMA.

eve Of the adjournment OF Parliament
Tor tue Easter holidays. that "thu gov

tation: When courts cannot convict,
and when the constabulary and the mili-
tary combined, though numbering In the
aggregate some forty thousand men,
well trained. and well srmed and equip

government cannot make a bargain of
the kind without a surrender OF Its pre-
rogattve and CONF ssioH that It has been
thoroughly beaten. Such an abnegation
OF authority would be regsrded in Eng
land as equivalent to a reDuuciation Of
the rights Of the crown, and would raise
such storm of indignation as would
speedily hurl Mr.. Gladstone and his col

American Grain for BaIIast.

A special despatch from Chicago says:-
The ocean steamship lines are begging
Chicago railway agents to send them
grain for ballast. Never before were tbe ey
driven to such strait. Yesterday the
agents of the Ea tern lines terminal here
we're asked by wire it they could not
furnish small cargoes on condition that
no charge should be made for transport
ing 1t by water TO Liverpool.
The agents replied that the offer Of
free transportation had failed to secure
any freight. Again to-day the steamship
people renewed their appeal, Offering as
additional inducement a premium of
several cents per hundred pounds to the
shipper. The railway agents replied that
oven the offer of a premium had failed
to start a movement. The steamship
companies that they must have ballast
vets Is bnlletined for early departure.
The offer of q premium was made by the
four lines running between Boston aud
Liverpool. No offers of so unusual a
nature were received from tho New York
lines. The railway agents here say that
no orders are given for cars. The only
grain uuder movement stward is In
small shipments TO local points. The
reason for this remarkable o tate OF affairs
10 that consumers cannot and will not
pay Chicago speculative prices.

YESTERDAY - HANDSOME FLORAL
DECORATIONS.
Yesterday being Easter special SER

1t was . day Of general rejoicing among
christian people, the decorations of the
churches and especially the pulpits Of q
number 0f.the churches, far exceeded
those Of number Of years previous.
The decorations consisted mainly of
flowers, they being the most Appro-
PIRATE.
In st. johns church the services were
unusually interesting there; were three
large congregations, and the music was
OF q tine order. There were special
anthems, aud the hymns were very
heartily sang. The chancel was profusely
decorated, as were also the two memor-
ial tablets. The rector's sermon upon
Resurrection, was the argument fr 1t,
and spoke Of the beauty, comfort and
triumph Of Easter. The services were
all exceedingly spirited. The congrega-
Non 10 steadily grow ng and evlnces
great zeal.
In the Delaware Avenue Baptist
church, the services were conducted By

plants Of various hues, togather with
about $50 calla lllics. At the base was
tomb composed OF choice exotics.
There were also q number Of othe de-
signs. During the services the church
was crowded, and between services n
constant streaHa OF persons were going
10 and out Of the church TO view the
decorations.
AT Grace Church special services were
also held, and the floral offerings were
very beautiful, and reflect great credit
upon the committee having them in
charge. To give description would be
almost impossible.
Rev. DIR. Nixon conducted the SER
vices In Central Presbyterian Church,
preaching special sermons both morning
and evening. Here also we're o number
Of beautiful floral designs.

The arbitrary abuse of military auth

Mason is fitting companion-piece TO
toe abuse OF military privilege by the
Board Of Commissioners Of the Soldiers
Home. Fresh details are coming out
IA day 10 day which place the two
peeulat'ng commissioners ih q most un-
enviable light. Many of our best army
officers are glad of The exposure, so long
as the shame was secretly known among
Them to exist. The venerable General
Hunter, almost as much revered here az
was the late General Robert Patterson
In Baltimore, has expressed his thanks
to General Sturgis for his courage ia

refinement Of irony, the splendid pile of
brick and stone which forms the hospi-

furnish q cottage, which is q mans ON
rather, for the President and family to
Iuxuriate In during the summer months,
said mansion lavIshly provided with the
fruits and nowers forbidden to the woun

Apropos Of this, lady, intimate with
Miss Harriet Lane when abe presided
ov er her uncle's Presidential household,
relates that once when visiting her In
the cottage there, she thoughtleSsly
plucked flower from the grounds. HOh,

"Uncle can't bear that the soldiers
should be despolled Of thing that is
theirs. He will buy US all we need"
The erig nal fund for the Soldiers
Home was obtained by General Scott as
. levy from the city Of Mexico,in whose
streets, afser its surrender, our soldiers
were fired upon by Mex cans. He COM
pelled q payment of $3.50, 600 for the act,
and when the money reached our Gov
ernment, 1t was not know just how TO
dispose Of it, so, by General Scott's ap-
proval and desire, tbecame the nucleons
of this fine property, which has now ac-
crued, accretions being made all the
while by judicious investments and by
the Government, keeping back twenty
five cents every .wo months from each

Army. A fine statue of General Scott
adorns the bow CT the hill on which the
Home is built, and looks off toward

Considerable sensation was created
In social circles by the news that Miss
Eleanor Ewing had taken, in a Pitts
burg convent, the veil of the order of
the Sisters of Mercy. This young
lady, who is now Sister Mary Veroni-
ca, has been great favorite in Wash
ington society. Young, beautiful,
wealthy, of fine social position, with
all the world before her, it is difficult
for the worldly to realize how in the
morning of life she can give Up all
this, renounce all thought of love and
marriage and family ties, even her
name itself, to devote her life to the
poor and suffering in that smoky city.
Many think that the example of her
cousin, General Sherman's son, who
became monk year ago, was the
moving cause. Her mother, brothers
and sister Edith were present during
the ceremony which took her from
them forever, and rendered her as dead
to the world as though buried in the
Gem etery instead of the cloister.
