The democracy are denouncing the
republicans for having a surplus in
the treasury. When James Buchan-
an, the last democratic president,
left the White House there was no
surplus in Uncle SANS pocket, but
old uncle was so hard up, his
pocket book had been so well empt-
led by the Buchanan administration
that the old gentleman could hardly
borrow enough money to run the
government at L per cent. 1t is a
good thing to have a surplus in ones
pocket. or in the treasury of the ma
tion.

Mr.. Hendricks is going about max
ing speeches, and talking about in
creasing the navyand harbor defense,
which may be well enough, but at
the same time he is in favor of a re-
tIuction of The tariff and the surplus
in the Treasury but be does not re-
veal the method by which the navy
is to be built up, and the harbor de-
fenses increased if the treasury is to
be emptied- Perhaps he would re-
sort to the Buchanan method of bor.
rowinging at II per cent. Mr. Hen
bricks is smart man but he has the
wrong kind OF q speech.

would go republican, but no one be
lieved that it would give a majority
of 10000 for the republican candi-

Certain telegraph and telephone
companies had the impudence to pre-
sumo that they had the right to
fasten their wires to the side of

week informed them better Of the

The New Brunswick National bank

The New Brunswick National bank,
of New Jersey, went up with the
more than usual flourish last week.
The president concluded to go along
with it, and committed suicide by
cutting his throat. 1t may not be a
pleasant thing to say it, but it is q
fact, that if a few of the officers had
swung their worthless selves off some
seven or eight years ago, their inca
pacity to run a financial concern
would not have been revealed and
over a million of dollars would have
been saved to contiding useful peo-
pie. The bankers cut a swell on

Ticket ScalnerS.

There is a law pending beforr. the
Legislature of Maryland n nravent
ticket scalping" and % confne the
traffic in tickets 70 tho antborized
S;n Gn.s ~ - railroad companies; the
..uer consideration is similar to
/, mat which has been SO effective in this
state both in protecting passengers and
the railroad companies from the loss
| arising from the purchase and sale of
| fraudulent tickets or of tickets improp-
erly procured. There were recently
convicted in our courts a number of
trusted employees of the Pennsylvania
| Railroads and Pullman Car Companies
| against whom the charge of embezzle-
| ment was sustained.
These men were all respectable and
honest until they were tempted to dis
honesty-tempted by the loss of repa-
tation and position, and, in fact, into
prison, by the ticket scalpers. Every
ticket fraudulently abstracted or with
held BY them, it was proved on their
trials, was subsequently sold to the
scalpers at largely reduced rates and
resold to travellers to be used a second
time. Thus the railroad companies
suffered severe losses, and in cases
| where the frauds were discovered in
time the passengers holding the seal
| pers' tickets were subject to loss and
inconvenience.
No railroad company is secure from
loss, no railroad conductor safe from
temptation, and no passenger free from
danger of buying fraudulent and use
less tickets, SO long as ticket scalping
is legalized. The railroads that are
carrying passengers upon terms SO fa-
vorabie should be protected from fraud,
their employees from the temptation
. that robs them of home, friends and
employment, and passengers from in
convenience or fraud. The law of
Pennsylvania is exceedingly popular,
and similar one should be among the
statutes of every State. Only through
and by the operations of a like law can
absolute security be afforded to the rail-
road companies, their employees and
the travelling public; but until such a
law becomes common in all States,
travellers should refuse to purchase
from scalpers, lest they become invol-
untary partners in fraudulent traffic.

They buried Paul Etheridge in the

Arthur Etheridge was the acknowl-

a girl could not have succeeded Paul,
even had he sister left, and even had

One year after, Arthur and Sybil
were married; and then, almost kneel-

a confession and pleaded for pardon

Talking with Il New York San re-
porter, the old usher of the St. Nicho-
las hotel, now closed, referred to old
time patrons OF the house as follows:
"Erastus Corning, the former presi-
dent of the New York Central railroad
company, used TO come with very light
baggage. As for Gil Davidson, his
partner, his heaviest baggage was a
big roll of bills he always carried in
his pocket, a share of which he always
left with the boys. / never saw more
generous man. But Mr. Corning
brought considerable baggage when he
brought down his adopted daughter,
Miss Turner, the one who afterward
married Burch, the Chicago banker,
who tried to get divorce from her
and failed. Miss Turner was such
sweet little woman that every body
sympathized with her and hated old
Burch."

A Terrible Time Approaching.

The period between 1880 and 1885
cannot fail to excite the liveliest inter-
est with astronomers, as the four great
planets, Saturn, Neptune, Uranus and
Jupiter, will then be in perihelion for
the first time in about 1900 years, and
IN consequence of this remarkable
event it is believed that the climatic
conditions of the earth will be disturb
ed and produce alternate degrees of
excessive heat, cold, rains, floods, hur~
ricanes and fatal epidemics Durir r.

cts were in perihelion, apS, from that or
some other cause Goods, hurricanes,

eAtehueo ter the world and destroyed
vast slhor-,nts of life and property. In
inc SAth century the plague broke out
p the East, and sweeping over Africa,
| Asia and Europe, destroyed, it is esti-
mated, 100, 000, 900 people The CITY
of Alexandria lost 200, 600 inhabitants
In Constantinoplc 1000 died per day
during three months, and in and
around Rome during the same time
5000 died per day. A large number of
cities, villages and provinces in East
ern Europe, Western Asia and North
ern Africa were almost depopulated,
and remained in that condition several
centuries. The people fled panic
stricken in every direction, and for
miles around these cities the dead
were left unburied and thus filling the
air with pestilential odors added addi-
tional horrors to the scenes of distress
and misery. In the sixteenth century
the plague ravaged the world again.
Constantinople lost 200, 900 people, and
in and around Rome, Naples and other
cities OF Italy, 100000 died in five
years.
Fifteen millions perished in China
and 30,O00 900 died III the countries
bordering on the Red, Black and Med
lterranean Seas. Marseilles lost rs, 900
inhabitants in six months, and in and
around London 100000 died in three
years, and in that city fires were kept
burning day and night long time to
purify the air, which seemed vitiated
several years. Ireland lost 800. 900
people, Paris 100000, Madrid Il 900.
Alexandria $4,000, and the total loss of
life by the plague and famine of the
sixteenth century is estimated at 120.-
00O,000. If the foregoing calamities
were the result of three planets in per-
lhellon, what may be anticipated from
the four now approaching perihelionP
The theory entertained is that the per-
lhel on the four great planets will af-
feet the sun and the sun in turn will
injuriously affect the earth, and hence
disastrous consequences to life and
property will follow. - New York
