Porter.
When the Tribune says BLAINE has
grown rich in the public service, it might
add that it has grown rich, too.
Col. INGERsOLL is ready to back Dor
sey's innocence for 81, 900 and vociferously
says so in court. This is powerful ar.
gument.
ALEX II. STEPHENS has regained his
health and re-considered his determination
not to run for governor of Georgia. He is
in the hands of his friends, and as he is a
light weight he is easily handled.
It is robson, of course, who recalls to
the Springfield Republican the story that
although Col. Vel! could not tell what
had become of one dollar of the deposits of
the Yellville bank he seized that oppor-
tunity, Mr.. Speaker, to declare his urdy-
ing devotion to the American flag"
The legitimist organs do not contradict

Mr.. CRUMP has resigned his position as
steward at the White House. He is COM
pletely broken down from nursing the late
President Garfield, and is very indignant
that the committee on Garfield expenses
recommended only $1,000 for him. He
says he ought to have as much as Edison,
who gets 10000. This is very pathetic
that $28 day extra pay will not satisfy a
White House steward.
The Princess HELEN, who, by her mar
iage with Prince Leopold, became
duchess of Albany is quite scholar, al
though q simple, ladylike country girl.
Her pleasure at Arolseu, which is a Sc

expences are ruinous. The official repre-
sentatives of foreign nations at st. Peters
burg are expected to wear mourning when
the Czar or any member of his family or

then lighter grades of mourning were
ordered by court circular, and the last three
months light shades of gray were allowed.
