And caterwAuled his hearts despair
In music to the moon.

The lover howls in mortal pain,
While grins the jovial moon.

Members of the party of the Extreme Left

Princes being deprived of their military COM

Royalist papers insist that the scare is a
maneuver to procure the prescription Of the
Princes.
The Cabinet Council has adopted drafts of
bills against pretenders to the throne and
modifying the press laws. The bills will be
submitted to the Chamber to-day.
The Deputies-407 to 94--voted urgency
for motion to strike the name of the Or

istry agreed to urgency.
The Bonapartist members of the Chamber
of Deputies have issued protest against the
arrest of Prince Napoleon, and demand an
appeal to the people.

pei members of former reigning families
whose presence in France compromises the
safety of the state, those returning to be liza
ble to five years in prison. Princes who now
serve in the army are to be placed on the re-
tired list. This last clause caused an uproar
in the Chamber.
Another bill was introduced modifying the
press laws of 1881. 1t provides for the pun
ishment of outrages against the republic and
makes offenders amenable to correctional
tribunals A vote of urgency was also de-
sired for these measures. The committee on
them and on the motions of Ballue and Flo
q uet will be appointed on Tuesday.
The Bonapartist members of the Deputies
held meeting to-day and adopted resolu-
tions declaring Prince Jerome's action per-

France.

which I have now sent to the desk to be

ers rs | said the other day, imported by Mr..
DePauw were thoSc laborers who, could noi
he furnished in this country. but had to be
brought from a country where pate-ciaSs
ma"ufacture was known. How could
anybody start a plate-giass factory in thi-
country without having somebody who
knew how to make it? There was 20 one il.
this country that did. The charge the Sena-
tor brought was that Mr.. DaPauw had i'm
ported glass-glowcrs. and that that class OF
labor can be found in this country. If the
Senator will hear the letter from Mr.. DePauw

NEW ALBANY. Ind, Jan. Is, 1888.
MY Dear General have your telegram,
saying that Senator Vance uses against us
the testimony of a Mr.. Bishop before the
tariff commission, on page 1,O5S. As
we never heard of Mr Bishop, and
have not the testimony before the tariff
commission, and have been unable to find
it, either here or at Louisville, we asked you.
by telegraph who is Bishop, and what doe
he allege. to which we have your night tele-
gram and the words following: Bishop is
Chicago iron-worlZer; he said you had trouble
with your glass-b!Owers and sent 10 Belgium
and hired men on three-year labor contracts
ut one-third the wages paid by you before.
II affords US great pleasure TO assure Won that
there is no truth whatever in Mr.. Bishop''
statement. We never imported glass blowers
from Belgium or any other land, and as to
wages. we are now paying and have always
paid elass-blowers and all otherglass workers
in ali Departments the association prices
the very highest wages paid in America
and, as you know. American wages the
highest paid in the world. I repeat, and
emphasize it, that Mr.. Bishops statement is
IL - 81. 81 al
false. 1t has been pleasant life-work with
me to give employment to a very large num-
Der of men and pay them the very highest
wages the business would justify. | believe
my men fully appreciate this fact, and that
I have their confidence and respect; they re-
gard me as their friend and | am sure there
IS no dissatisfaction among them.
Nv. c. DEPAUw.
"Hon. B. Harrison. United States Senator"
After further discussion the gentleman
from North Carolina was fairly reduced to
the admission that he had based his
charge entirely upon the statement Of
Bishop, which had been shown to be
without foundation. The amendment was
then adopted-27 to 16. The debate upon
this subject, which has taken up the best
part OF two days was by far the most interest
ing and spirited since the tariff discussion
began, and at its close the Indiana senators
were warmly congratulated for the gallant
defense they had made of one of Indiana's
chief industries and for the success attend
ing their joint efforts. On Tuesday the tariff
discussion will begin in the House, and
when the point is reached the Indiana mem
bers may be called upon to make the same
tisht over again.
