A Brilliant Comet.

NEW YORK. November 12.-The Cap
tain OF the Brig Letitia arrived to day
from Miragoane.and reports September
81, when near st. Mare, Hayti, q large
comet OF great brilliance was seen, bear.
ing east by south, and visible for some
time after the sun rose. The Captain says
tho comet was visible in Hayti some time.
and was very large and brilliant. As we
came northward It diminished in size aud
brightness, and appeared to be moving in
q more southerly direction over Hayti.
It was seen as late as 10 A. NJ. in the day.
and appeared much larger than on our ap-
proach to New York. Most people in
dayti think their last days have come.
After the comet of last year they had
smallpox. and lost upwards of sixty
thousand lives throughout the dominiops.
They always look upon comet as bad
omen, and are at loss to know what
trouble this will bring them.

st. JacksOn's Day.

A special Columbus dispatch to the
Enquirer says a movement is on foot,
headed by NJ. D. Harter, of Mansfield;
Frand Hurd, of Toledo; George B. Okey
and Allen G. Thurman, of Columbus,
and others, to have grand Old Hickory
celebration and banquet in this city JAN
uary 9Th, to commemorate Jackson's VIC
tory at New Orleans and the new advent
of Democracy in Ohio, as Newman will
take the oath and enter on the duties of
his Office on that day. 1t is proposed to
make it an occasion for the expression of
opinion for tariff reform and bring out
more prominently that issue in the COM
ing campaign. Among the distinguished
Democrats who will be on the programme
for responses to toasts are Judge George
Hoadly, Tariff and Democracy" Judge
Allen g. Thurman, Tariff and the Fu-
ture;" Ex-senator Joseph E. Mcdonald,
Tariff and the CONSTITUTIONS" Henry
Watterson, Tariff for Revenue Only"
Frank Hurd, England and Ireland and
Free Trade;" M. d. Harter, Tariff and
the Manufacturers" 1t is proposed to
have these speeches carefully prepared,
published in pamphlet form, and at once
circulated, so as to have the tariff ques-
ton before the people during the winter
and well understood before the next cam
paign, and even before the next State
convention. This is a commendable
movement, and it is to be hoped that it
can and will be fully carried out, as much
good can be done the Democratic organi-
zation. Ee

The Meaning Of 1t.
New York SUM-

Would you know the meaning of the
political revolution which struck its first
blow in Ohio in October, and swept
through Peunsylvanis, New York, Massa-
chusetts and Colorado on Tuesday last?
It means these four things:
l. Reduce the expenses of every branch
of the Federal Government to basis of
simplicity honesty and economy!
II. Abolish the internal revenue abom-
inationl
III. Make the tariff simple and rational,
and just sufficient to provide for the
wants of an honest and economical ad-
ministration in time of peacei
~. No subsidies, no jobs, and, above all
no stealing, either by the admin istration
and its agents, or by Congress and its en-
ployesl
This is the meaning and the purpose Of
this mighty overturn.
Is tho Democracy wise enough and
highminded enough to execute this pre-.
emptory mandate with fidelity and cour-
age? We shall see. The occasion is great.
And we are happy to add, the future is
hopeful.

Four Men Killed and Number Of
Others W0uudad


CLEVELAND, Nov. 13.-About O'Clock
this afternoon, the boiler in the Forest
City Iron Works exploded with terrific
force, killing four men and seriously in
juring four or five others and slightly
wounding half dozen more. The won
der is that larger number were not
killed, as nearly 300 men were at work.

Bob INGERsoLL hits the nail pretty
squarely upon the head when he gives
the following causes OF the overthrow of
the Republican party:
l. The extravagant appropriations.
g. The refusal TO reduce taxation. At least S75,-
000 should have been taken from the burdens of
the people; $20 600 0OO he says, should have been
taken from sugar, and the entire tax from tobacco
The Republican party should have taken such steps
that all internal taxation could within one year from
now, be abolished. The people, he says, tired of
paying war taxes In time Of peace.
s. They want the Collectors and Treasury Agents
and Gaugers and all sorts Of detectives and spies
discharged.
a. The Republicans should not have postponed
the tariff reform. The Tariff Commission was mis-
take. People saw that it was only an afidavit for
continuance, ruse for delay, and that the Republi
can party was not going to act.
:. Prominent Republicans have been trying to
kill each other. The great struggle has been for
office. Wehave too many politicians and not enough
statesmen. The fight against Cornell was unfortu-
nate. Pennsylvania was tired of the Cameron rule,
and everywhere there seems to have been hatred and
disgust. it

An exchange says that November con.
tributes brilliant record to the plane
tary annals of the year. Venus rejoices
in her period of greatest brilliancy.
Neptune and Saturn arrive at opposition
within five days Of each other. Jupiter
increases in size and brightness as night
after night he comes earlier above the
horizon. Mercury makes positively his
last appearance during the year as morn
ing star, when bright-eyed observers may
hope for glimpse of his shining face.
Students of the stars will find no end to
the enjoyment Of following the track of
these bright wanderers among the stars

The Blind Man.

Auee uhh may Oc O1nu III more
ways than one is conceded by almost
everybody. The man who is physical
ly blind, whose eyes have been de-
stroyed by disease or the sight re-
moved by some accident is to be
pitied and he should have the sympa-
thy and share the charity of every
good citizen. But the man who is
blind intellectually or spiritually. who
at this day and age does not post him.
self as to his immediate surroundings,
does not make himself acquainted with
the general topics of the day, does not
know whether he is Presbyterian or
a Methodist, Republican or Demo
crat, is to be censured rather than
pitied, because in these days of cheap
literature, and the world is full of it,
man need not 60 to the expense of
travelling, he can stay right at his own
fireside and make himself fully ac-
quainted with everything that is going
on in the world, and thus become a
good judge of the principles and char
acters which are best calculated to ad-
vance the interests of every country
and better the condition of every indi,
vidual. 1t may be we'll perhaps, to
state right here for the benefit of those
who may not be acquainted of the fact,
that Saur makes specially of keeping
constantly on hand all the best and
choicest literature of the day at his
large drug and book store, and any
book, paper or magazine published
anywhere in the world will be fur
nished on the shortest possible notice,
in any language desired. And we will
say further that you will not only find
Saur's drugs and medicines is always
complete, and will compare favorably
in quantity, variety, price and quality
with that of any other drug house any
where east OF west, north or south. 1t
has become byword, and deservedly
too. that when you fail to find any spe-
cial or particular kind of medicine
everywhere else, that by going to
Saur's drug and book store you will be
sure to find it.
In the line of holiday goods, Saur
is always up with the times and has
everything that is beautiful as well as
useful at prices which are within the
reach of every one. In fact low prices
on all kinds of goods sold at this house
have ever been the mottos which have
given this house reputation which is
not excelled and which every one is
proud to speak Of. Saur has always
recognized this fact in all his dealings,
that honest square dealing, represent
ing your goods none other than that
which they are, is the only true road
to success, and he who prospers by any
other is sooner or later, either in this
world or the next, bound to retrace
his steps, make right what he has
made wrong, or else forever suffer the
penalty which attaches to all that is
bad.
