Gen. Sherman is one of the most pop
ular men in Washington, judging by the
demand for him at social entertainments.
He rarely, if ever. dimes at home. AS
he goes out so regularly he sometimes
forpets where he is to go. The other
night he came out on his doorstep in .
great hurry. He was in dinner dress,
but hesitated as he came out Of the door.
Mrs. Sherman, who was in the hall,
asked what was the matter. my
George" said the General, II was to 60
to dinner somewhere tonight, and to
save my blanked, blessed life have for
gotten where" Mrs. Sherman came to
the door, and pointing to old Gen. Van
vliet, who was going quietly up the
street, said: "There goes Gen. Van
Vliet. He is generally at dinners where
you are invited. You follow him, and
90 in where he goes" "My George,
what a splendid idea! I can't miss it
following that lead. Van Vliet can be
trusted to find out the dinner places"
Away sailed Tecumsch. and as he did
not return if was safe to conclude he
found the right place.

LYNCHINts.

1t is high time that serious means were
taken to put a stop to this horrible prac.
tice Of lynching in the States OF the
West and the South. Lynching in Iowa
and Mississippi, in Georgia and Ohio, in
Illinois and Alabama, in Arkansas-lynch-
ing Of men who are afterward pro-
nounced innocent, and of others who
are not proven to be guilty-it is a shock
ing thing for a country OF Christianity
and constitutional government - New
York Sun.
Well enough said, but what are the
"serious means" to be used! The der
nier resort is a jury Of II citizens-peers
of the lynchers. 1t is through these
peers that lynchings and general lawless-
ness prevail. Who is there that does
not attribute the unlawful killing OF
Dukes to the corrupt jury that permit
ted him to go free instead of sentencing
him to hang?

pMII;S TURN.

The able society editor of q Baltimore
paper learns that "the momentous ques.
tion at present agltating Washington
society is whether Gen. Sheridan, when
he comes in, will follow the example OF
his illustrious predecessor and kiss all
the pretty girls" 1t is understood, we
believe, in well-informed circles that
since "all the pretty girls have had
their day in court under Sheridan's
''illustrious predecessor" the other girls,
so long neglected, are to be the special
object of Gen. Sheridan's attention when
he begins to osculate.

PLAIN TRUTHS.

There seems to be much greater activ-
ity in discussing the various Presidential
candidates who may represent the Dem
ocratic party in 1884 than is given TO the
consideration OF the next candidate on
the side Of the Republicans. This is
doubtless due, says the New York Sur,
to the general impression that the Demo-
Gratis stand the better chance for success.
At the close Of Arthur's term the Re-
publicans will have been in power "a
years, q period as long as that which IN
tervened between the defeat OF the first
Adams by Jefferson and the election OF
John Quincy Adams by the House OF
REPRESENTATIVES. They now hold all the
Federal offices, and control the annual
expenditure of hundreds OF millions OF
public money. They will struggle des-
perately to retain the administration OF
the Government in their hands.
Till the close of the conflict over
slavery the Republicans conquered by
tho strength of their principles. They
have since owed their success to false
pretenses and to corruption. They ought
to have been beaten in 1872. They were
beaten in 1876. but by fraud and audacity
they wrested the victory out OF the
hands Of the Democrats.
The Republicans have lost the conn
dence Of the country. If the Democrats
80 conduct themselves for the next IL
months, and especially through the com
ing session of Congress, as to win TINS
confidence, they will elect the PRESIDENT
in 1884 by an overwhelming majority.

THE FIzzLE.

The notion that was lately put into
practice by a Philadelphia newspaper Of
cabling to this country every Sunday
night the sermons Of the London pulpit
teer, S~purgeon, has been abandoned.
The price was too heavy for sermons
which were too cheap. They proved to
be Improbable to the paper which foot
ed the cable bills for them. In fact, it
was at once evident to those who read
them during the few weeks of their pub
LEGATION here that W. have in this coun-
try hundreds Of preachers who are in
every way superior to Spurgeon of Lon
don-who are better reasoners and the
ologians, more persuasive. more learned,
more imaginative, and not less pious or
enthusiastic than Spurgeon. The Phila-
delphia paper which cabled Spurgeon's
sermons from London rendered some
service by bringing this truth home to
the American mind.

The Morton Block Fire.

SAN Francisco, June 21.-The Morton
Block fire was the most disastrous since
the great lumber fire Of two years ago. 1t
was first noticed at $3.50 in the morning by
the stewart Of the Olympic Club. Before
be could turn in the alarm the fire had
got fully under way. When the engines
arrived all hope had ceased Of saving the
upper portion OF the building. The fire
patrol Immediately turned their attention
to saving the dry goods Of O'Connor,
Moffatt h Co. This they succeeded in
doing by means Of tarpaulins. Ala o'clock
the rear wall fell out into Morton street,
inhabited from one end to the other by
demi-mondes. The greatest CONSERVATION
was created among the occupants, who
sought refuge in all quarters. At S O'Clock
the Fire Department succeeded in over
coming the intensity of the flames, saving
the wo lower stories and the adjoining
buildings, which we're fortunately pro-
tected by walls Of masonry. The first W
floors were occupied by the dry goods
establishment Of O'Connor, Moffatt 4 Co.,
The third story by the Acme Billiard Par
lors, owned by the Brunswick & Bake
Company of Chicago, and the upper story
by the Olympic Club. The building was
erected in 1868, and, although it with
| stood the heavy earthquake of that year,
lately has been considered q fire-trap by
the fire authorities. AS proof of this, the
insurance companies have charged IL per
cent premium. The building, with the
! improvements, was valued at $3.50. 900,
and was insured for $4,000. O'Connor,
Moffatt & Co carried q stock of half a
million; insured for $245 900. The
| OI-,nDia nl,,h -rppartv q voIt1ad OF Gin
| 900, and insured for $40, 900, divided
among Pacific Coast companies. The
Acme Billiard Parlors lost $40. 600; insured
for SIS, 900. The total loss is S507 900;
total Insurance.. $4,000. There wore
several accidents, out no loss of life.
