in the Assembly Chamber OF the old Capitol.

The amenities Of social life have broken ont
again in the Southwest. Two men shot each other
near Galveston, Texas, day or two SINCE by way
of closing discussion IN relation TO the right Of ono
of them to reclne unlimited upon the bed OF the
other. But the fact that both the .debaters were
shot dead renders 1t impossible to say how the
point is to he regarded as decided.
"Fame is vapor," wrote Horace Greeley " pop
ularity an accident riches take wings; the only
earthly certainty is oblivion" How many OF us
must have been reminded of the truth of these
words when three or four lines IN the morning pa
pers were thought sufficient to announce the death
and commemorate the career of an artist who had
been one of the brightest ornaments Of the Amer

woman for 1t WAS here that her whole public life
was passed aud her greatest success achieved. She
was nearly forty years on our stage, adjoining 1t
not only By the brliancy Of her talents but by the
nobility of her character and the dignity of her
private conduct. For Il long period her popularity
was enormous. There was other contralto

kindly while they heard the echoes OF her full and
sympathetic voice, enriched it was by the charm
of "a broad and simple style, the fervOr of strong
musical feeling and the light Of dramatic intelli-

Miss Phillips too cordially because the prilna
donna soprano was jealous and made trouble-this
being probably the only instance record ia
which an impresariO got more favorable notices
than he wanted. 1t IS always Sal TO watch the
declining popularity of deserving artist and the

great singer dropped out Of sight.
General Butler has Just been at pains to explain
to friend at Washington that the Democratic
party has come over to him-he has not gone over
to the Democratic party. Tho General makes us
think of that Indian who was found wandering
aimIessly and deectedy in the depths Of the forest

the surplus in tho Treasury will soon have to
be considered. No indication has yet been
given Of the intentions of the Secretary, and 1t
may be that he Is in some measure influenced
by the opinion Of those bankers who believe
that money will begin to return from the West
and South, in adequate supply, about the mid
die of October. The circumstances this year,
however, are peculiar. The fact that about
$780, 200 of the money sent West within the
past eight weeks has gone in the form of sill
yer certificates issued at distant points upon
deposits at New York, and the further fact that
the issue Of gold certificates has now COM
menced, may have an important influence.

The reputation of the police force is again
assailed. and this time from the bench. JUS
tice Otterbourg declared in court yesterday
that the authorities know perfectly well the
places in which Sunday laws are violated, but
that they only arrest those liquor-selers who
are not able to secure police protection. This
must be considered as an official utterance
which no Justice would make unless he knew
what he was talking about. Let us have 1t all
out-not innuendoes, but facts. If Justice
Otterbourg does not want to tell the public,
he might be able to give the Grand Jury good
deal of valuable information.
According to a letter from our regular Paris
correspondent, published on another page of
this issue, the overthrow of the Empire at Sc
dan may prove to have been good thing for
the French, morally as well as from political
point of view 1t is said that the Feyghine
tragedy has blghted the matrimonial prospects
Of the young Duke de Morny, and aroused
respectable people to the utter wOrthlessness
of what is known as good society in the
French capital. When Paris becomes disguised
at any exhibition of immortality or indecency
there is hope for France. The sooner the
kind of arstocracy which De MOrny and his

humanity.
The results of diligent inquiry by TRIBUNE
reporters, given i'll another column, indicate a

The ,otels have been crowded this fall with
buyers from all parts of the country, as they
have not often been in years past. Among
manufacturers and wholesale Dealers the as
surance is given that trade has seldom or
never been more vigorous Sales are 10 or
20 per cent heavier than they were last
autumn. The demand comes from all parts
of the Union, is not speculative, and very
nearly equals the supply. This is an en-
couraging outlook, for the state of trade in
New-York reflects pretty accurately the con-
dition of the cOuntrys mercantile health.

heads for the surface. When its head is
noticeable it is pressed out and each day one

stick the size Of lead pencil until its entire
length is exhausted. A man may be laid up
