WASHINGTON, March 25.-As the
law forbids that vacancy caused by
the death or resignation of the head Of II
department shall be temporarily filled
for a period exceeding ten days, by the
first assistant or any other officer des-
ignated by the President, it follows
that q successor to the late Postmaster.
General must be found on or before
April 4 and speculation is already
heard az to who will be called to the
office. The First Assistant Postmaster
General, Mr.. Hatton, is not free from
ambition in that direction, and certain
ly would not object to a Civil Service
Reform promotion which would give
him the portfolio.
Another most pertinacious applicant
for the place was Chauncey I. Filley, Of
Maine, whose hopes it was currently re-
ported at the time were blasted by the
opposition of General Grant, Senator
Logan and of some other members of
the "old guard" If the appointment
should now be given to an Ohio man, it
would not surprise many persons if ex-
Representative ButterwOrth were to re-
ceive it, There is good reason to be.
lieve that Mr.. Window stands high in
the favor of the President, who it is
said sincerely regretted his defeat for a
reelection to the Senate.

The Aged Millionaire Mechanic.

Heis still able to attend to business,
but the intirmities of old age are upon
him, and he is now rarely found at his
Office in the Institute. Forty years
ago, when the present pliilanthropist
was merely a business man, says the
correspondent, used TO see the sign
painted upon the warehouse in Burling
Slip: "Petcr Cooper, Glue and Iron
Wire. How little did then imagine
the distinction this name would hold,
both in enterprise and benevolence. The
office was very small and everything
had quiet look, for in fact it was
merely n place for taking orders which
were served from the factories. The
quiet, methodical man who sat at the
chief desk might have been taken by a
stranger for retired mechanic who
had become = clerk. He spoke in a
calm and subdued voice, and resembled
one of the most favored members of the
working class. Such, indeed, he was,
and in that light he has always viewed
himself, and hence he now stands be-
fore the public as ono of the most
wonderful mechanics in the worlds
history.

and loaded with delicacies, to which
the guests were invited. After supper

dancing. They also insisted on Robert
Banks, of Brandywine Hundred,

the floor, and stepped off quite lively at
first, but his 240 pounds was most too
much to swing, and he gracefully re-
tired from the floor amid the laughter
Of the company. AS the hour of twelve
o'clock drew near the company began
to disperse to their respective homes, all
wishing the happy couple pleasant
married life. The bride and groom
were the recipients Of numerous

A Father Who Never Forgot H1s
Family.

From the Russell (Ky.) Herald.
The departure of a certain gentleman
Of Muhlenberg County for Arizona last
week, was an incident in y story about
which could be built an interesting ro-
nance. Between twenty-five and thir-
ty years ago, when the gentleman was
n baby, his father left home to better
his fortunes, and went, it was thought,
to California. His wife heard nothing
from him or Of him until he had been
goiI" for three or NOR" years, when she
received IT check for $500 and request
ing her to come to him. She kept the
money, as was proper, but declined TO
make the journey, and he became silent
again. Years went by, aud the lady,
after the proper pr"liminaries, married
again. The gentleman had almost
dropped from thr minds Of his old
neighhors, many believing him dead,
unit a few weeks ago, when he gave
another sign rf life by sending another
check for 5000. This time the money
was sent to HIS son, whom he remern-
bereh only as "the baby" but who is
the father of a family himself now In
his letter he said if his son would come
TO him in Arizona he would give him a
good farm. The young man accepted
the offer. The meeting of the old father
and "the baby" will doubtless be an
interesting one. The gentleman is said
to b" quite rich now.

The New York Times says the trial of
Rev. DIR. Heber Newton, for preaching
doctrines not consistent with the views
held by the Episcopal Church, will be
begun soon afte. Easter. The Rev. Dr.
B. +. De Costa, who is instrumental in
pushing the case, said on Wednesday
evening that his views had not changed
on the subject. He did not, however
wish to begin the proceedings during
Lent, and so nothing aggressive had
been done as yet. DR.. De Costa said
his views were supported by othercseTgy-
men in the Church, and that he was
fully indorsed by leading Bishop.
There must be some authority in Church
matters, Dr. DE Costa said, and if there
was nonein the Episcopal denomination
he thought some of the Churches would
60 over to Romanism. Meanwhile
those who will conduct the prosecution
have been getting ready, and the mat
ter will be pushed forward aS soon as
possible. These c.ergymen will have TO
make the charges, and the case will
then be brougt Officially to the attention
of Bishop Potter.

Rents not only continue high in this
city, but tho majority Of landlords are
still advancing them from 10 to IL per
cent. This rise Az n general thing does
not apply to houses already occupied
with good tenants, but whenever a per.
son moves the increase il demanded.
The demand for houses is good, and
fully equals. if IL does not exceed the
supply. Considering the high taxes,
rents have been too low to make real
estate paying investment for several
years past, and the landlords cannot be
blamed II they make an effort to re-
cover some of their losses now.
The outlook for business is good, and
the general impression seems to be that
work will be plenty. A large number
Of new buildings will be erected, and
