Columbus and Portland are not included

most gratifying one we have had occasion to
record 30 far this year, both as compared
with that of last week end with that of the
corresponding week last year. The totals
are certainly exceedingly large, considering
the state of general trade at Important CEN

aggregate clearings at the twenty -four lead
ing points for the week Just closed is 81 $780,

pared with the corresponding week last year
the clearings show percentage increase of
40 per cent. against percentage decrease of
80 per cent. last week and 26.9 per cent. the
previous week. In New York, where the
freight difficulties are gradually becoming
settled, and where "boem" in stock and
other markets has continued, cearings for
the first time for many weeks past show =
percentage gain rather than one of loss. The

increase of 2.5 per cent. against decrease
of AZ per cent. last week and 1858

the noted Byron forgeries over thirty years
ago gained for him wide notoriety, has Just
died in London. He claimed to be the son
of the poet Byron by the Countess de Lima,
q Spanish Jewess. His story was thoroughly
exploded, but there were plenty of people
who believed his statements. He cold in
Loudon in 1851 forged letters from Keats,
Southey and Shelley to Byron, together with
spurious, unpublished poems of Byron. He
found it convenient to leave England after
his frauds were discovered, and settled in
New York. His wife became housekeeper
of the Hoffman House, and he lived as best
he could. His linguistic accomplishments
were rare, and he posed as a British officer, .
Journalist, diplomat, an officer of the United
States army, oriental traveller, and In many
other characters. He left several children
in New York, one of whom, Percy Byron,
recently obtained notoriety by trying to kill
himseh.

JOHN II. Brownlow, postoffice clerk, has
published letter giving his views of an at
tempt made by a little Tennessee "boss''
named Houk, who happens to be a member
of Congress, to prevent his expressing his
opinion on the condition of politics in that
State. Houk, he says, has been raising
money in Tennessee, not to beat the Demo-
Gratis, but to defeat another Republican
named Rule for the nomination in his dis
trict, and assessing every body right and left
for this purpose. Finding that Brownlow
had the audacity to state, in conversation, that
he preferred Rule, Houk, to bring him
to his senses, wrote q letter threatening
to 'send him home to work for living"
If he did not keep quiet. Brownlow says,
in reply and in print, that he proposes
to do Just az he pleases; that Rule is a
truly good man, while Houck is somewhat
like the "heathen Chinee," and in COMPARE
son with his rival, Is ga sstyr to Hyperion"
that he neglects his duties in Congress, and
keeps "an army of ofice-holders" riding for
weeks "over twelve big counties, larger in
extent of territory than the combined area
Of several States of the Union" "insolently
debating to the people the denomination of
their little boss, Leonidas Caesar Houk." He
hints also that he is drunkard. Mr.. Brown
low adds that rather than outrage decency
by supporting him any longer, he would
be disfranchised forever.

THE REVENUE BILL
Still Under Discussion In the Senate
The Tobacco Section Disposed Of
In the House.
Democratic Senatorial Caucus - Letter
from Minister Trescott to Ex-
Secretary Blaine.

WASHINGTON, July 24.-The Democrat,
senators held caucus this morning and re
solved to insist upon full and free discus
sion of all amendments to the tax bill, and
to oppose any attempt to reach final vote
upon the bill unless such ample opportunity
was afforded. The drift Of the discussion
was that the Democrats should oppose the
proposed reduction on perfumery, cosmetics,
patent medicines, ETC., and insist upon a
substantial reduction of taxation which will
directly affect and benefit the masses of the
people, and by securing full discussion of
the subject to compel the two parties to put
themselves squsrely upon record. The caucus
also determined 10 support Senator Beck,s
amendment, That alltsxes and customsduties
imposed by the United States under the law
now enforced for the collection OF duties on
imports from foreign countries, shall be sub-
ject to q discount of ten per cent. after,
J January 1, 1888. and to . discount of an
additional ten per cent. after July j, 1885,"

Esseed S5,OoO,000 to improve the Mississippi
river TO the advantage of commerce, then it
discontinued the National Board of Health
to the disadvantage of commerce. Not con-
tent with that amount Of dashisg down with
one hand what it built up with the other, it
has reduced the appropriation for sustaining
lights on the river from SIZE, 900 to $40, 600.
Tins cripples the advantage of lighting by
leaving unsafe places unprotected. Since
the river has been lighted up at places re-
curing care, the dangers of its navigation
have decreased three-fourths, the pilots say,
and there is proportionate escape from de-
struction Of property and of life. The late
food proved the immense value of the sys-
tenn. In a distance of 1000 miles only two or
three lights were deserted, difficult as the
duty often was. In the darkness of night,
amid drowned banks and the wild waste of
waters, those lights indicated the way and
40 saved much loss. The value of the river
lights is not a matter Of mere opinion; facts
of weekly occurrence and the experience of
those who Hrsn the river" are ample and un-
deniable proof. By what freak has Congress
limited this valuable service by eating down
the appropriations?

Can't can degrade religion in The eye.

n CANT can degrade religion in the eyes of
the multitude to an extent IngersolPs rant is
incapable Of We see an instance in the case of
some of the adversaries of a fair and just rule
thatlAas been promulgated among the Presby-
terians, allowing those congregations TO have
instrumental music that desire il, and those
to be without it that SO prefer. The use OF
musical instruments in the temple of service,
and the way their use ia spoken of in the
hook OF Psalms, show that it is neither
devotional nor irreverent to introduce them.
Notwithstanding this, the permissive rule
has not satisfied the recalcitrants, as quite a
number OF the ministers and elders have
signed call for a day of fasting and prayer
in view of the admission of organs, pianos,
harmoniums, or what other instruments peo-
pie may desire accomplishments to their
service. This is degrading prayer aud fast
ing, and making the service of religion
ridiculous.
