vigorous denial OF the report that he has
taken q residence In Florida, and that he
wants to return to the senate.
The passage of a bill by the Tennessee
legislature making II q felony to rent
buildings for gambling purposes has
caused q sensation among the gambling
fraternity.

says: THE signs tf the times, we are glad
to say, point to an alignment Of parties for
the contest of 1884 upon the issue of tariff
reform, pure and simple"
AS the constitutional amendment pro-
viding for biennisl sessions aud elections in
Massachusetts, requires only o majority
vote in the senate, Its presentation to the
people Is almost certain.
The Connecticut prohibitory amend.
ment before the legisl ,ture has been re.
committed merely for the purpose OF
changing the form of submitting it to
the people, provided it is approved by the
house.
The Pennsylvania legislature has passed
q bill provid ing that no free passes or dis.
count passes shall be issued by any railway
in the state to any one but officers and em.
ployes Of the company, and that violation
of the act shall be punished by $500 fine,
