Gov. MURRAY, of Utah, denies most en-
phatically that he was in any way at fault in
tho administration of his Office as United
States marshal of Kentucky, and intimates
that the charges emanate from the Mormons
and their paid agents in this city. In view
of the governors determined warfare against
polygamy, it would not be surprising to dis
cover that his allegation is strictly true. 1t
is case in which Mr.. Springer would do well
to go slowly.

Don't you tell.

Is a bell,
With its echoes, wide rebounding,
Multiplied and far resounding;
Don't you toll.

Then who can?
Could you more expect off any
other man?
Yet you put him, IL he tells it.
If he gives away or sells it

In the mart;

Spare part.
Blessings on the open pocket,
But your secret-keep 1t. lock It
In your heart.

WORK FOR THE SENATE.
Bills and Resolutions TO bo Discussed
During the Week.

During the Week.
The Sherman resolutions come up for con-
sderation in the senate to-day, and a speech
upon them by Senator Malone is expected.
Under the new rules the consideration of
these resolutions should cease for the day at g
o'clock, but a majority of the senate may
secure its co ntinuance longer. or, indeed,
until they are finally disposed of. There Is o
general belief that they will give rise to q
series Of political discussions, and that
the placid temper which has char
acterized the daily sessions of the SEN
ate thus far will now give place to the
political excitement, which is the custom
airy feature of the annual session immedi-
ately preceding presidential election.
Should the resolutions not be disposed of for
several days it is not probable that current
work will be entirely neglected. At 2 o'clock
the bill introduced by Senator Edmunds "to
provide for ascertaining and settling private
land claims in certain states and territories"
will coma before the senate as special order
If not displaced by majority vote or unapi-
nous consent. The bill prescribes methods
for securing lsgal recognition Of
grants made by the Spanish and Mexican
governments in New Mexico, Wyoming,
Arizona, Utah, Nevada. and Colorado
aud limits the rights to be secured by certain
conditions. One of its most important pre-.

or the issue of q patent fora greater quantity

are indications that tho passage Of the bill
will be warmly opposed, though there is no
reason to expect very long debate. While
considerable interest attaches TO this
measure it is overshadowed in impor-
lance by tho Mcpherson banking bill,
already upon the calendar, which hav-
ing for its object the checking of currency
contraction is likely to be taken up during
the week in any event and may for this pur-
pose displacs the land grant bill if the debate
is prolonged.
The republican members of the finance
committee are anxious to go farther in pro-
viding against the contraction of the cur
rency than the Mcpherson bill contemplates,
and the debate upon tho measure is likely TO
continue several days. There are no signs OF
immediate further action upon the Mexican

The Marriage OF nv. Douglass.

ThNddciphid Times.
When an old man of IS marries young woman
OF &c. more or less, why the world will gossip any
way. All the more If he is a colored widower with
children and does not in advance tell the young
sters that he means to marry white woman. So
Douglass is at last immortal. II seems that the
negroes are more aroused about 1t than the white
people of Washington or elsewhere The colored
ladies take 1t slight, ii not an ins ult TO their
race and their beauty, and with disguised friend
ship for the old bridegroom, say this step Will DO
sure to injure him politically. But what does n
colored bridegroom at the age Of 70, with II new
white wife and bank account ofS2O0,00O, care for
political honors or preferment? BY the time the
honeymoon is over Mr.. Douglass will be about
ready to depart in peace, nor care about recording
any more deeds except his own.
NctO York World.
Frederick Douglass is intellectually and morally
the superior of thousands and tens of thousands
of white men. He has more learning, more
culture, more political and general knowledge
than two.thirds Of the members of any ordinary
state legislature. Some OF our senators claim
the credit of being "self-made men" in the matter
of dollars. They have nothing but their money
to thank for their positions Frederick Douglass
has the greater honor OF being selEeducated
man, and the learning he has acquired has won
him both fortune and respect.
What oiiense does a lady commit who marres
such man? She takes husband with dark
skin and little negro blood in his veins. That il
the head and front of her offending. If she had
married one of the many low, ignorant white
scamps who. having been kicked out of all decent
circles, have found resting place in the public
departments. her friends would not have OBJ
jected. But she has chosen an intelligent, honor
able, able colored man, and has given a terrible
shock to washington society,""
Is it not time these prejudices against race
should cease? Are they not out of place in re-
publican government in which all men are now
happily considered free and equal? ?"

JUMPED THE TRACK.
And the Engineer and Fireman Prob
ably Fatally Injured.

LOUISVILLE, Aug. 15.-Last night about
10 o'clock as No. 3 south bound express
dashed around the curve beyond the ten mile
bridge on the Cincinnati short line, between
Zion and Verona, fange on the first truck
of the engine, No. 941, broke. In mo.
ment it leaped the rails and jumping along
the cross ties down fifteen foot embank-
ment, dragging the postal and baggage and
two express cars and derailing the whole
train. The engine, in its mad descent,
turned completely over and is lying in a
ravine below, complete wreck. The postal
and baggage cars are badly
smashed, but the two express cars were
not damaged in the least. AS soon as En-
gineer Carr realized the danger, with great
presence of mind he reversed his engine and
remained at his post. The fireman attempted
to jump and was caught by the descending
engine and was seriously injured. The
postal clerk jumped from the car and
escaped with few bruises. All the other
trainmen remained in the car and
it seems miraculous no one was killed.
Most of the passengers were asleep at the
shock was felt the whole train was the scene
of the widest confusion. The lamps were
cXtinguished; men, women and
children rushed hither and thither,
wringing their hands, searching
for friends from whom they had become
separated in the excitement After diligent
search amidst the debris, it was discovered
that none of the passengers were hurt, and
then, and not till then, did the train men
turn their attention to the engine and its
brave engineer. A horrible spectacle
met their eyes. In the m idst of the ruins OF
the powerful engine lay the mangled for III

MILWAUKEE, Aug. 15.-The Milwaukee
wheat market opened at 4@3sc lower at the
morning board under the influence OF liberal
receipts at St. Louis and Toledo, together
with weaker feeling, and reported decline
of 1c at New York. Foreign markets were
also reported quiet and easy, London
and Liverpool opening heavy with a down
ward tendency. Paris was quiet and the
country markets were a turn easier. The
weather in this country and over European
countries is very fine. Milwaukee receipts
and shipments are small, but a liberal move
ment is anticipated at an early day. No. 2
spring seller, September, opened at 76Mc,
rose to 79c, receded to 7S%c and rallied to
roe. October ranged 119c above September,
opening at S015c and closing at 801ac. Cash
was entirely nominal at 1c under September.
At the afternoon board prices fell off little,
and business was generally dull. Septem-
Der closed at 7S1lc and October at S014c.
There is now only 435, 900 bushels in store
