Mr. Evarts: 90 We put it at ST. 600 600"
Mr. COnklng (lncredu lOusly): " would like Il
see it, because it would give me painful sensation
of the decay of my faculties"
Mr. Evarts finds the allegation and reads: " The
estate may be brought up to S7,00O,OOO"
Mr. Conkng becomes painfully conscious of the
decay of his faculties
The news comes from Muscogee that Chicota's
men were attacked near Okmulkee by Spieche' 5
partisans under Mekarochee. No wonder that
there is fighting when such names freely used.
But the affair is a damper for the phanthropists
who have held up the Greeks proofs of the civil
cation Of the Indian.
Socialism is supposed to be based upon liberty.
Then why did the Socialists at the meeting Tues
day night attempt to deny the speakers liberty of
speech
The Treasury Department excludes Chinese wet
nurses Is not this directly melting the Chinese to
the use of the bottle
dispatch relating to the traffic in Chinese women
carried on through the port of Victoria b. C., ex-
presses an apprehension of the renewal of the
traffic on large scale next year. 1t
might be added that there is some reason to ex-
pect the same thing at another port. There is now
n through rail line to Guaymas, in Sonora, Mexico,
which is A shorter distance from China than San
Francisco 1t is intended sooner or later TO put on
a line of steamships between China and Guayma ;.
If Chinese passengers Of either sex choose
TO come in these steamships, no Mexican legislation
prevents their landing and it would be practically
impossible to keep them from crossing the boundary
line INTO the United States. Therefore, when
Guavmas becomes a seaport of Importance, we shall
probably have the promoters of the Chinese bill APP
plying for appropriations to guard the entire south
western frontier against the invasion of the MOngol
Their only consolation may be derived from the
ascending scale of hatred peculiar 10 the Apache,
who still turks i'm the Sierra Madre For the Apache
hates the Mexican with dcadler hatred than that
he chrrishes for the American; the negro excites
ms yindictiyeness more than the Mexican but he
hates the Chinaman most fercely of all. The
Apache may yet prove himself friend i'll time of
need to anti Chinese legislators.
There is no especial occasion az regards antiquity
for the eclat which attends the celebration of th'
GOOth anniversary of the House of Hapsburg A.
most any Chinaman of rank can trace his line;
back to the foundation of his house 1000 move
years ago
Cincinnati's prophet in recting the calamites to
come ii lsS3-'S4 says that flaming fire will come
to complete the dark picture IN which case the
unprophetIc mind would imagine that the picture
would be anything but dark.

lea. Government by and foi the people is most
efficient when political parties are thoroughly
organized and pltted against each other on
equal terms. The Republican party has been
at its best when the opposition to it has been
most formidable, and at its worst when it has
had least to fear from its rival.

Readers of THE TRIBUNE who are members
of the National Guard will be interested in
the annual report of Inspector General
Oliver, an abstract of which will be found
elsewhere just now, when the policy which the
State ought to pursue in regard to her militia is
a yexed question, the facts which General Oil
yer presents will be closely scanned.

The resignation of Mr.. Vaux will occasion
some surprise and much sincere regret among
people who take an intelligent interest in the
city's pleasure grounds Apart from an IL
rational outbreak now and then from Mr.. Lane,
it has appeared on the surface that he had
secured the confidence and cooperation OF the
Park Board. Of course the discOurteSy OF lg-
noring letter to the effect that certain line
of policy if pursued by the Board would render
his position "untenable," left HIM no alterna-
tive: but the matter itself could hardly have
brought on the direct issue unless it had been
the elimination of a series of annoyances
which had led him TO despair OF receiving a
cordial and sympathetic support. The fact
that the resignation was not accepted Is an en-
couragement to hope that a misunderstanding
lies somewhere in the background which may yet
be explained and the difficulty be adjusted
The Board of late in its public performances
has conducted itself after a more civilized
fashion. There has been q marked improve
ment, too, in the maintenance and manage
ment of the parks under the administration OF
Mr.. Vaux, although his work gave evidence
that he labored under q sense of some restraint
and uncertainty. At all events, the public felt
secure In the belief that no mistakes would be
committed so long as the Board took counsel
of his taste and training and long familiarity
with the special needs of the work which he
helped to create After these brief months of
promise it would be a trial beyond endurance
to see the parks once more fall under the con-
troll of unIestrained ignorance.

Our Albany correspondent telegraphs that it
is understood that Governor Clevelands message
TO the Legislature will contain recommends
ton in favor of abolishing the offices of Audi
tor and Canal Appraiser. Both the offices
could be abolished without injury to the pub
lie interests, but considering that the Demo-
cratic appetite is sharper than serpents
tooth and bigger than all outdoors, it is
doubtful if the recommendation if made will
beacted upon.

The Senate Committee on Corners long ago
made itself ridiculous and it now seems to be
used chiefly TO further the ends of the
Thurber oleomargarine combination. 1t is
worse than idle to tax the people of this State
to bear the heavy expenses of committee
which sees no improperly in devoting its ener-
gies to an attempt to extOrt from witnesses the
facts of their private business--facts which in
ho way relate to the subject that the COM
nittee was empowered to investigate. Yester-
DAYS session of the investigators was largely
devoted to this sort of impudent fishing. The
committee might make itself useful 1t is
making ITSELF worse than useless.

Mr. "Joe" Coburn, who for several years past,
to the unequivocal satisfaction of the respect
able element in this community, has been III the
uninterrupted ice of the State, tomorrow
evening is to have his return to the metropolis
taken due notice of by the choice circle oil
which for so many years he has been an orna-
ment and pride. The interesting commemo
rative exercises consequent upon welcoming
back this distinguished citizen to the active ca
reer which was cruelty interrupted owing to CIR
cumstances not under his own control, VIII take
place at Madison Square Garden. They Will
consist chiefly of feast of pugilism and How
of knock cuts. The eminent Mr. John l.. Sullivan
is to lend his potent presence and much tone
to the occasion and-dOubtess there Will not be
a dry eye in the Garden when he does twill
extent the right hand of fellowship to MI
Coburn in the last act. This truly lovely tesI-
monial goes by the name of a" benefit But
we beg leave to suggest to Mr.. Coburn that II
is precisely this sort of benefit i'll all tnat 1t I'M
plies of association and tendency that Is apt to
make man meet for that inheritance at sing
Sing which he lately lost.

The passage by the Senate of Civil service
Reform measure which is not an example Oh
how not to do it, not mere sop to Cerperus'
but sincere, earnest and well-consldereo at
tempt to solve the great problem, will be hallea
with satisfaction by all citizens of the Uni'eu
States, whatever their politics. who oeiieVc
that our country will never prosper as IL might
so long as the spoils system ftourlSnes' nc
bill as it stands will occasion much discussion,
and. doubtless, criticisms will be passed upon IL
which will not lack point. Nevertheless IL
will be generally admitted that it is by lar the
best effort that has thus far been made to pro-
vide for the eradication of the giant evil al
which it is aimed. 1t is earnestly to be hoped
that the House will have the wisdom and the
patriotism promptly to ratify the good work
of the Senate. We publish in this impress
sion the full text of the bill.

teresting account in tins mornings lAzue oi
the development of tobacco culture IN fehh-
sylvania, and particularly of its rapid prog
ress in Lancaster County. According to the
figures given the net profit per acre on inc
PENNSYLVANIA tobacco farms averages SIOo'
and contrary to experience elsewhere there
seems to be no falling off in the pro-
ductiveness of the land. Farmers, how
ever. even in Pennsylvania, who might be
tempted to raise tobacco would do well TO re-
member that the plant is an exceedingly eN-
hausting one, that the crop is most piecallous'
and that in the long run the business only
seems TO nav in few localities. Tobacco
growing Is in fact speculative industry, in
yolvinp great risks as well rs, sometimes,
large profits.

The Tie rhat BINDS.

A quiet but pleasant wedding took
place at the residence of Mrs. NJ. Z
Wheeler, at the corner of Exchange
street and Eighth avenue Tuesday even
ing, the high contracting parties be-
ing Mr.. p. n. Groth and Miss Nettie
Smith. The ceremony was performed
in very impressive manner by Elder
Lott, of the Christian church, and was
witnessed by small company compos
ed of the near friends and relatives of the
bride and groom. The former was the re
cipient of some very valuable gifts,
among which may be mention
ed an elegant gold watch
and chain from the groom and beauti-
full China set from Mrs. Wheeler, grand
mother of the bride. A tempting and
bountiful supper contributed to the
pleasure of the occasion, which was one
of great enjoyment throughout.
The bride has been employed for
some years past as teacher in the pub.
lie schools of this city, and has also
filled the position of organist at the
Christian church, since the purchase
of an instrument by the congregation.
She is most estimable young lady and
it will be a source of qualification TO her
numerous friends to know that she has
placed her happiness in the keeping of
a husband who is so worthy OF the
priceless treasure of good wife.

Death of Mrs levi Dumbau,d

Mrs. Levi Dumbauld died Saturday
evening at 2 O'Clock. at the residence OF
her husband on Eagle creek, from in.
famation of the bowels, aged about 30
years. The funeral took place yesterday
afternoon, services being held at the
house, and the remains being buried at
Hartford. Rev. Mr.. Dudley officiated.
Mrs. Dumbauld leaves a husband and
five children to mourn the loss
of a most devoted wife and
mother, and the home which was bright
ened by her presence will be dark in
deed, now that she is gone. She was a
lady whose character was adorned by
many virtues, and her fidelity to every
relation which she sustained to her fam.
lily and the community in which she
lived was attested by the sincere grief
manifested by the large concourse Of
sorrowing friends who gathered to pay
the last tribute of respect to the memory
of one who was SO generally beloved
and esteemed.

Items OF IntsrestIn Connection with the
Services Of Sunday
Two aceessions were made 10 the
Christian church yesterday, one by let
ter and the other by profession of faith.
The rite of baptism was administered 10
the latter at Rinker's ford in the after
noon.
Rev Mr.. Hendy, of the Presbyterian
church, preached TO large congregation
morning aud evening, and his excellent
discourscs commanded the closest atten-
ton. He will take vacation of few
weeks. and enjoy respite from his pas
toral cares during the present month.
The lecture room Of the IL E. church
which has been tasiefully kalsomiued
presented q very Inviting appearance
yesterday and was well filled morning
and evening, Rev. Mr. Hanna dispens-
ing the Word with usual aeceptability.
One accession was made to the church
by letter
The Congregational pulpit was filed
morning and evening by Rev. S. L. Bus
ser, of Loda, Illinois. The subject of
the morning discourse was ASupersti-
ton" and the progressive system of the
ology advocated by the speaker
showed him to be abreast with
the most liberal and advanced
thought of the religious world His
earnest manner at once enlists attention,
which is held by the originality which
the subject matter of his discourses pre-
yades and the facility of expression with
which he is gifted. Rev. Busser does not
fail TO interest even those who may not be
fully in accord with his views, and we
are not surprised 10 learn that he
breaches 10 one of the largest congrega-
tions in the section of the state in which
he Iabors- The evening discourse,
which was based upon the incident of
Christ shilling the tempest, was very
eloquent and abounded in fine thought
and beautiful imagery.
Rev Mr.. Riddle, OF the U. P. church,
preached at Neosho Rapids last evening.
Rev. Mr.. humphreys, of Missouri,
preached fine discourse at the Welsh
Presbyterian church last evening.
The rite of baptism was administer
ed to the infant child of Andrew Shell
den at the Episcopal church yesterday
morning by Rev. Thos. Burrows.
The dedicatory services which
were announced TO take place at
the Free Methodist church on
South Commercial street yesterday
morning, were postponed in view of the
fact that there is still some Indebtedness
on the building. The cost of the edifice
was in the neighborhood of 81 800. and
all of this save little over 500 has
been provided for. As soon as the
church is entirely free from financial en-
cumbrancs it viii be dedicated. The
pulpit was filled yesterday morning and
evening by Rev c. B. Ebey, of Chicago,
who is preacher of much force and
ability.
