The bill for the revival of American
shipping was under consideration in
the House Saturday, and Hon. S. S.
Cox made an able and eloquent speech
in behalf of the bill. After giving a
detailed account of the navigation
laws, he said:
Amid the divided marine domin
ion, in which one power alone has half
rule of the ocean, America sits scep-
terless and forlorn-dethroned ignO-
BILE, dispirited and disgraced. The
symbol of our our nationality, taking
the stars from the vaults of heaven,
by which brave men sail, is All un-
known emblem upon the sea. We
welcome every race to our shores i'll
vessels of other nations. Our enOr-
nous surplus which feeds the world,
is for others to bear away. We gaze
at the leviathans of commerce enter
ing our harbors and darkening the sky
with pennons of smoke; but the thun-
der of engines is under another flag,
and the shouting of captains is in an
alien tongue. Others distribute pro
duce, capitalize moneys gather g!ories
and elevate their institutions by amen
tiles aud beniSities of our corr ,Derce,
and we, boasting of oar in entIon,
heroism and FIRE e lom, allow jailcrs Of
mated and selfish policy to place gyves
upon our energy and imprison ouI
genius i'll sight of these splendid
achievements.
Mr.. Speaker, if you would that We
should once more fly our ensign upoI,

dens from our navigation and give tc

Destructive Floods In Europe.

BERLIN, January 4.-The inunda-
tions are taking the form of great
public catastrophe. The distress is
increasing hourly. The civil and mil
itary authorities are making the great
est exertions to mitigate the misery of
the disaster. There is no sign yet that
the crisis of the calamity is reached.
The high temperature and rains con-
tinue. At Ludwigshafen, opposite
Mannheim. where the great Rhine
dam gave way last night, the lives of
hundreds were imperiled. A steamer
rescued many hundreds, including the
sick. The deepest distress prevails.
PEsTH, January 4.-The Danube has
inundated Pessburgh, fOrty-four miles

IN commenting upon the correspon-
denee, just published, between Stephen
w. Dorsey, the Star Reuter-, and Sec
retary of the Republican National
Committee, the New York Herald
says: "These letters prove beyond
the shadow of doubt that Dorsey
was the intimate and trusted friend of
Garfield. That as a candidate for the
Presidency and as President elect,
Garfield had of his own desire the
closest and the most confidential rela-
tions with Dorsey, and it will, we be-
lieve, be the general feeling, in view
of these letters, that Garfield did not
defend his friend as such a friend ought
to have been defended. We do not
mean to say that Dorsey was such a
friend as the candidate of the Repub-
lican party and its President:elect
ought to have had, but he who reads
the letters and dispatches will see that
in fact, that of all the men who gath
cred about Garfield. Dorsey was appa-
rently his chosen friend, counsellor,
and intimate, and in this view it seems
to us, however disagreeable it might
have been to Garfield, that it was his
manly duty, when his friend Dorsey
was attacked to stand up for him. 1t
would have been better for Garfield to
have resigned the Presidency than to
have begun his career in that office
with the prosecution of man who had
been, up to the day of his inaugura
ton, apparently his trusted, contiden-
tial and Jealous friend and with whose
past career he was necessarily SO well
informed that he could not have claim
ed that these accusations of Dorsey's
completely with tie star route crimes
came upon him as surprise"

A special from Mt. Vernon, o., of
January 5th says: Mrs. Stillwell
has made still further confession that
she murdered her mother at Ottumwa,
Iowa, after she had been injured in a
railroad accident. She says she is
guilty of other crimes which she will
not divulge. When asked of what her
father died, she said, Cut throat
Her father mysteriously disappeared.
Her physician pronouuces her of sound
mind. Mrs. Stillwell has already con-
fessed to four other murders, one being
her first husband and one her own
daughter, both of whom she strangled
to death. She is on her death bed, a
victim of consumption"

SHALERSVILLE.


WEDDING ANNIVERSARY.-O the
evening Of Jan. Sd, the family of Fred.
Porter were happily surprised by a
goodlynumber of neighbors and friends
numbering seventy, who came in mass
to celebrate the fifth anniversary of
their welded life. The evening being
propitious, the good people came with
warm hearts and smiling faces, bring
ing such goodies as tempt the appetite
on such occasions. The young people
wishing to"trip the light fantastic toe, ="
room was soon made ready, music
called for, and the social, quiet dance
proceeded. While the first tables were
being prepared Mr.. Porter was called
to don the wooden hat, and after bow
ing low to the assembly when he was
introduced, the bridegroom and hat
at once became conspicuous. Before
partaking of refreshments Mr.. and
Mrs. Porter were invited to take seats
in new rocking chairs, and before
them stood center stand upon which
were wooden bowls, brackets, etc, all
being the gifts Of the company. Mr..
Sheldon Skitf then presented the gifts
in behalf of those present, to which
Mr.. and Mrs. Porter responded, but it
was plain to all, that deep in their
hearts was responsive echo that ex-
pressed more than words the thankful
ness i'll their being remembered. The
guests were then invited to take seats
around we'll laden tables, z8 being
seated at time. The brides cake was
then presented to Mrs. p, she being
requested to cut and pass it. She was
very deliberate about it and slyIy tried
it with her knife, but concluded it was
better to look at than eat, and on Ieav-
ing the table she carried the wooden
cake with her, After all were served,
the parting soon came, and the merry
makers wended their way to their re-
spective homes. Thus ended the wood
ell wedding. May the happiness and
OF this couple continue, and
may such gatherings be their lot, un-
alloyed by any antipode of sorrow as
the wheels of time roll on. Mr.. and
Mrs. Porter moved here from PALMYRA
in 1879, and as their acquaintance
among us was of short duration they
We're the more surprised. Their Pal
myra friends were invited but failed to
put in an appearance. L. 7.

" Wallace is entitled to the seat eve n
by the showing made before the State
Board, and VIM. Mckinley knows
that Wallace is entitled to it," All of
which is as true as preaching, yet that

A BANQUET was given at Boston on
Monday in honor of Jackson's victory
at New Orleans sixty eight years ago,
at which 250 persons were present.
Gen. b. F. Butler was present, and
made speech in wlich he said: The
unthinking of tod ~, the civil service
reformers, not remembering history as
well as they do their own political in
terests, charge him as General Jackson
with adopting the maxim "To the
Victors Belong the Spoils" Far from
It, Every officeholder had assailed
him and the principles of the party he
represented with violence, bitterness,
injustice and personal vituperation,
and heenunciated this doctrine, which
in this date 1 adopt for one-not that
to victors belong spoils, but that II e
government belongs to its friends.
The sentiments of the meeting were
universally in favor of the nomination
of Gov, raor Butler for the Presidency

Ladies, boarding school Burned.

A Knoxville, ILL.,, dispatch of the
5th inst. says: ST. Mary's Episcopal
school for young ladies, at this place,
burned to the ground early this morn
ing. Most of the hundred scholars
were asleep when the flames were dis
covered, and had barely time to escape
when the alarm was given, leaving
their wardrobes and property. Many
escaped by ladders. Miss Gillette, of
Buffalo, ILL.,, broke leg; Miss Hos
ford, of Dubuque, was seriously injur-
ed 10y falling frOma ladder, AMI E. A.
Keightling, a fireman, also fell and
was injured No others were injured,
and no loss of life occurred, though at
one time it seemed inevitable. The
building was imposing, the vestry of
brick and Handsomely furnished. The
students were mostly from Illinois.
The loss on the building is about $2S,-
600; fully insured. The loss of the
ladies, in property, is about as much
more. The building will be rebuilt
soon, and in the meantime temporary
accommodations for the school will be-
devised.

The Civil Service Bill.

The following is the substance of
the Civil Service bill w hich has passed
both branches of Congress, and only
requires the signature of the President
to become law:
1t provides for board of three COM
missioners to pass upon the qualifica-
tons Of persons desirous of entering
the public service. A chief examiner
is also appointed to act with the Board
and travel around the country arrang-
ing prelininaries and conducting the
examinations. Appointments are to
be distributed pro rata among the
States according to population. Polit-
ical predictions are to be ignored in
making selections, and those appoint
ed must not be addicted to the excess
i've use Of ardent spirits. Neither Sen
ators nor Representatives are allowed
to recommend any one to the Board,
except in the way of certifying to the
character or residence of applicants.
| Whenever q vacancy occurs in the
higher grades, it shall be filled in like
manner by competitive examination
! but in these cases competition is not
open TO all citizens, but only to the
employees in the grade of Offices next
below the one for which competition
is made. That is to say, only the low
est grade of offices is open to competi
ton for all citizens; the others are
open only to those already holding
subordinate places in the public ser
vice. Should the hundred Thousand
clerks and officials be divided off int
ten grades, then only the lower grade
is open to citizens. Only one-tenth o
the offices, and they of minor impor
tance, could be filled by those who dc
not belong to the new class of citizens
created by this bill, known as the
" Aristocracy of Office-holders."

RECENTLY number of New York
grocers were convicted and fined SlOO
each for adulterating cream of tartar
with ground gypsum. Men who aduI-

ease deserve the penitentiary. 1t will

an honest man by the side of the smart
grocer and manufacturer who drug
and poison their their goods with
cheap ingredients for the sake of max
