= THE message OF Presidenr Arthur on the

APPEAL TO M AXE room for the current news
The President thinks the tine mas come for

measure that The people are clsmorous for.
What he ssys shout reduction Of the in.
ternal revenue ard Of The tariff will also
challenge approval, though he is not quite
as explicit as he ought TO be. But be is
reasonable and conservative in his views,
which are utterly at varisrce with those of
Pig Iron Kelley, and the whisky and
tobacco rings which are now busy
buying newspapers aud organizing to
capture Congress. But there is room
for wide difference with him as
to his recommendations touching the excess
OF revenue and the payment of the national
debt. To relieve the people OF that burden
at as early day as possible should
be the SPECIAL policy of the Demo-
cratic party, that thus may be thrown
iuto general circulation the cipital that is
now locked NJ. The other recommendations
especially worthy of attention are consti-
tutional amendment to compel Congress TO
make each appropriation special measure,
and thus prevent such glaring swindles as
last session went through in the general ap-
preparation bill; for an act to enforce a
more rigid civil s,ivice reform and prevent
/ political assessments; an | for some steps to

MRS. LANGTRY
Shakes Her Friend, Mrs. Labouohere
60 Secure An EnfFee into New
York Society,
which Demanded, but Could Not See,
the Latter's Marriage Certificate
A Queer Story.

NEW YoRK, Decenahers 1<-irhere were
-rnrnoEs oi war Saturds ny ia the neie hborhood
OF the AlbermsrIe Hotel, and also at Wal
laek's Theater. No one knew just what was
t'ie IN ritter, sss< Fst-exeryone WAS sure that
something was the mailer. II hns1sy-frsns-
pred that deep and direful quarrel hsd
taken place between Mrs. Langtry aud Mrs.
Labouchere. No one knew why there had
been a quarrel. II anyone did know he did
not distribute his knowledge gratuitously.

subsequently, packed up her possessions in
several large trunks AID departed suddenly,
mysleriously but emphatically from the Al
bemarle Hotel. II was also slated very
definitely that Mrs. Labouchere would not
go to Boston with Mrs. Langtry tomorrow,
but would go to Richmond, Va, TO visit a
friend. Where Mrs. Lsbouchere went to-
day was not even a matter OF conjecture
every one gave it up at once, and 10 Wal
lacks Theater there is great and gloomy
silence in regard TO all that might, could,
would or should have taken place. The
members Of the management smiled very
complacently and looked as il they had
never beard Of any disturbance in their
lives. Two or three young men, with eye
glasses and elevated collars, inquired at the
Albermarle Hotel as to whether any of Mrs.
Langtry's hair had been pulled out, as they
wanted TO secure few locks, but they went
away sadly disappointed in heart and as
empty handed as they came. The explana-
lion OF the quarrel was given tonight by
gentleman acquainted with both ladies,
and it may be the Correct one. 1t
seems that Mrs. Langtry has been
greatly exercised over the fact that
she has. mot been received in society, and che
has attributed that fact to the close assocIa-
ton with Mrs. Labouchere. The latter lady,
1t will be remembered, was, before she as
sumed Mr.. Labouchere's name, an actress in
England, and the certificate of her marriage
10 that gentleman has not been exhibited.
In addition 10 this, Mrs. Lsngtry, it is said,
has been guilty OF the iudiscretion OF ac
ceptiDg invila,i 10 late suppers at Del
monico's ard other places, where she and
Mrs. Llbouchere were the only ladies pres
ent. This has raised a storm in society
circles, and Mrs. Langtry feels her position
keenly. Il is said that determination to
free herself from these eutanglemenfs, in the
hope of being ultimately received" led TO
the quarrel with her companion.
