Gorman,a Conression.

Mr.. Stilson Hutchins telegraphs to tho
Post of this morning as follows:
'SenRtor German Informs me that the com.
mittee have the best reasons for believing that
oleyeland's plurality, Instead OF being re-
result of the correction Of erroneous aldl-
tions."
1t seems, then, that Senator German ad-
mits the fallibility OF the returns upon
which he and Mr.. Barnum issued their
pronunciamento claiming the election of
Cleveland and Hendricks as q thing as.
sured beyond dispute, calling upon Demo-
Gratis everywhere to celebrate their al
legged victory, and threatening the country
with forcible resistance to any claims that
might be put forward on behalf of Blaine
and Logan.
If, as Mr. German now admits, there
were errors amounting to two or three
thousand votes in the figures upon which
this pronunciamsntO was based, they were
as likely for all that ho and Mr.. Barnum
could know to be upon one side as the
other, and had they been on the side of
Cleveland their corrections would have
overcome his microscopic plurality and
thrown a larger plurality on the side Of
Blaine.
Under such circumstances the issue Of q
manifesto like the one above referred TO-,
seeking to inAame the passions Of one
half of the people, to deceive them as to the
facts and to prepare them for resistance to
any corrections in the returns that might

A Fortune from n Flower.

The gorgeous dahlias which so brilliantly
ornament the gardens at this time, and are 50
effectively ueed In decorations, are OF Mexican
origin. They were fret introduced into Ger
many by Dahl. Their name was then ''Bideus
Magniica." Afterward they were called
dahlias, In honor OF the man who found them.
They were, when discovered, quite single,
having only one ray OF petals about a golden
disc. The colors were scarlet yellow and
white, the latter being distinct from the others,
having smaller flowers, and being OF a dwarf
habit, with leaves much divided and fern.like
in character. The English were the first to
attempt the doubling OF the dahlia, which was
priced by royalty, and 30 jealously guarded
that those In charge OF them were sworn to
secrecy as TO their cultivation. II was con-
sidered q great privilege even to see them
growing. In q few years senli.double flowers
appeared, and ultimately tho perfect double

LIEUTENANT GREELY to-day takes up
his residence in this city and enters upon
special duty, the object of which will be to
give to tho scientific world in comprehen-
sive and available shape the results of his
observations, discoveries and explorations
in the frozen zone.
The famous explorer, accompanied by
his wife, has taken handsome residence
on ] street, and they will be popular members
of society here.
The Lieutenant is rapidly recovering
health and strength after the terrible ordeal
of suffering, privation and exposure. The
greatest obstacle to his convalosconce is said
to have been the severe, anonymous aud
apparently unjust criticisms of his course
purporting to emanate from high official
sources. Lieutenant Greedy will not find
his courage, competency or devotion to
duty questioned by his comrades at the
Capital.

The question as to whether the World S
Exposition at New Orleans shall be open
on Sundays bids fair to attract as much
interest as did the same subject with ref
erence to the Centennial Exposition of
1876.
The Southern papers are discussing the
subject in most animated style. The
claims of the poorer classes, who arc at
leisure on Sundays only, are represented as
demanding the opening of the doors of the
great bazar upon every day of tho week.
The arguments on the other side are too
obvious to require repetition.
The management of the exposition in
cline to make up their minds by degrees,
and first decided that no sales should b,
permitted within the grounds on Sunday
second, that the machinery should not bo
in operation on that day, aud now the
propriety of opening the doors and per-
mitting sacred concerts to be held remains
to be considered.
