The Irish Times correspondent
says great distress exists IN comply
Clare owing to the failure of crops,
the epidemic among pigs, and the
dear prices demanded for all articles
of food, which is caused by taxes
levied on farmers by the crime act,
and which has proved very heavy
burden. The country presents q
melancholy appearance. Fields and
meadows are under water, men,
women and children, pigs, calves,
cows, dogs and chickens all are to,
gether in one conglomerate mass,
in miserable dwellings unfit for the
habitation of any human being. One

HUBBARD.
GOVERNOR

The Hon. Schuyler Colfax says
the overwhelming defeat Of the Re
publicans is due more than all
things else to the determination Of
the Republican masses to convince
their would be. leaders that the par.
ty was emphatically party of the
people and especially by the people,
and that those only can lead sue.
cessfully who, like Mr.. Lincoln, re-
spected public opinion, yielded per-
sonal preferences for the good OF
the whole, recognized the varied
elements Of the organization and
sought to harmonic insteed of to
tramp upon the conflicting factions
or sections Of the party. The future
he says is not assured to us by the
Christening Of this defeat, as 50 ma
ny Republicans assume. On the
contrary, l believe these figures
prove that no Republican candidate
can be successful in 1884 except
one who has had no participation
at all in these warning factions,
but is so acceptable to the millions
of the rank and file, that his
strength with them will COMPEL his
nominatiop-some such statesman
as William Window of Minnesota,
Gen. Harrison, of Indiana, or Ed.
munds, Of Vermont.

Minnesota is the banner Re-
publican State of the Northwest.
While in all other States the Dem
ocrats have been partially success
full, Minnesota alone has kept the
Republican standard aloft. The
Congressional delegation is solidly
Republican. Hon. Milo White, in
the First district gets there by a
majority of 612. Gov. Wakefield
has a majority of 9,505 over Felix
Bohrer, his Dem. opponent; Maj.
Strait has a majority of 9,7S7; Gen.
Washburn, 1925 and Knute Mel
sons plurality over Kindred is :, 209.
The Kindred organs, however,
claim Kindred s election, but how
they figure it out is mystery. The
Legislature stands: Senate-Repub-
leans, 81; Democrats, 10; House
Republicans, 70; Democrats, 25; In
dependent, /; Alliance, 2. The
Pioneer Press claims that 80 Of the
100 Republicans will support Sena-
tor Window for reelection.

Two Very Smart Girls.

When Sultan Serendib sent for Z
famous foreign physician to cure his

to find that the doctor expected to see

Sultan himself. We have known per-

BILE, who wanted advice about using a
secret, but wouldn't tell the secret. The
Cincinnati Gazette relates an instance:
A couple of well-dressed young ladies
came into the Central Police Station
Monday, and smiling sweetly on the
crowd of officers and reporters present,
the elder one turned and audibly said
to her companion,

''Do you wish to speak to the SER
geant?'' inquired that official, rising
and politely bowling.
t.And are you the sergeant? How
nice! You see. we want oknow if you
can help us. It's so funny, he-he-ee-ee!
The way of it is--you see, we suspect
her of stealing twenty dollars.''
''That is, the servant GIRL" interrupts
ed the official, who, from long, ex-
perience, guessed pretty accurately who
the ''she' referred to was.
Eyes, yes. Didn't say the servant
girl? How stupid! You see, we only
suspect her, and we want to know Il
you can't help us to find out. We
don't want her arrested-a1ot for the

All this was ratified off with lightning,

''What is the name and the address,

''Oh, we dom twant to give any names,

out whether she took it or not.''

anxious to terminate the interview.
Certainly; you will have to see the

In the loft overhead was stored a

A. discovery is reported in the
Agricultural Gazette, of Vienne
which opens up a new career to the
potato. It seems that the humble
tuber can be transformed into a
material for the manufacture of
mershaum pipes of the very choic-
est quality by the simple operation
OF boiling it for 36 hours in Ger
tain chemical solution, and squeez-
ing it afterwards in press till what
ever moisture it may contain has
been extracted. The residuum is
then declared to be hard block, Of
a delicate, creamy.white hue, in
every respect as suitable to the
manufacture of ornamental and ar.
tiscally executed pipe-heads as the
finest clay The potato treated is
also found to be an excellent sub.
stitute for ivory in the manufac.

Mr.. De Sala, in his ':America Revisit

experience in San Francisco with a
Heather Chinee.'' The Englishman
was stopping at the Palace Hotel, in
whose laundry some forty Cinnamon
were employed. On the second day OF
his stay, youthful Celestial presented
himself, early in the morning, at the
Englishman's door with a large basket.

English. Mr.: De Sala thought he un-
derstood that the youth had come from
the hotel laundry for one piece washing.
He was about to hand over his soiled
linen, when one of the black chamber
maids, an old Aunt Sally, entered the
room. ''Who glib him leaf to come
dere?" she asked, surveying the smirk-
ing laundryman with an ''up-and- down.
look.
He blushed, and muttered some
thing about 'piece'' and ''catchee'' and
''belongee.'
''But de washin' no belongee you,
john" she retorted, with austere digni-
ty. can you no belongee to de hotel,
an you keep de profits away from de

but Aunt Sally went on: cit was very

like your imperence to come smouchin'
around here looking after de white

Then she gave John a sound box on
the ear, and, as he ran off, explained to
the English guest that the Chinaman
was an ''outsider'' who tried to obtain
washing that should be done in tho
hotel.
