Mr.. Jay Gould protests that he
has reformed. He will Quit the
world, (which is Wall-street), and
will wreck no more railroads, rig no
more markets, and buy no more
newspapers. He will forswear sack
and live cleanly as Flastaff says, and
will be as good a man as a reformed
gambler can. It is a touching spec
tacle. Jay Gould has been for many
years the terror of the stock market
Doubtless he has enjoyed the some
what exaggerated reputation which
has been spread abroad by his agents
and emissaries. But, whatever may
be true of his influence in the
markets, and however popular views
of him have been distorted, he has
undoubtedly been an active and mis-
chievous agency in all honest stock
dealing. But now, having laid aside
the modest little sum of 500, ,OOO, 900,
Jay Gould will retire from active
business pursuits and will lead q
well-ordered private life. May q
peaceful conscience go with him. He
has ruined many an honest man, be-
fore now, and the number of guile
less lambs that he has shorn is past
calculation. But if he honestly for
swears speculation and railroad
wrecking, and goes into the cool.
sequestered vale of privacy, the world
of business will wish him permanent
peace in his permanent retirement.

The New Orleans ladies are max
ing an attempt to abolish smoking in
the street cars in that city, and if
what the papers say is true they have
strong show of justice and propri-

practice of making every third car a
smoking car. but this has virtually
given the smokers a privilege in all,
and now there is no car in which la
dies can be protected from smoking.

my brethren shouted Dr. Talmage one bright
autumnal Sunday, 'here Is lesson from the corn
field. God has arranged that the ear and the husk
shall be parted. Every rheumatic pain is but a
thrust of the husking peg, and every neuralgie
twinge is only twist of the husker'
Possibly; but nobody wants to be husked, for
all that, and nature teaches us TO resist the pro
cess. Therefore, we accept with gratitude what
ever helps us to suppress those very twists and
tRinges.

WAsHINGToN, Sept. 28,-Commiesioner
of Internal Revenue Evans has written a
letter to the attorney for the Weiss beer
manufacturers, in reply 10 brief filed
some days ago by the latter, urging the
reconsideration of the commissioner
decision as to bottling Weiss beer from
stamped packages, declining to reopen
the case and reafilrming his former deci-
sion. He says after !. careful examination
of the argument submitted, that Weiss
beer is fermented liquor, and as such
comes within the scope OF the statute
relating to the removal of fermented
liquors from stamped packages.
1t is expected at the navy department
that Lieut.. Harhera who was sent TO
Siberia to assist in the Jeanette search and
who afterwards was ordered to bring to
America the bodies OF Lieut. De Long.
DR.. Amber and Jerome Collins, will
leave lrkutsk about the 9th of November
next, and will reach the United States
with the bodies sometime in January.
The resignation of Judge Ray, chief OF
the division of postal laws and regulations
of the postofice department, has been
rendered to the postmaster general, and
will probably be accepted. The post
master general has the highest respect
and esteem for Judge Ray, and their re-
lations remain perfectly friendly.
