ABOUT PEOPLE AND THINGS.

MRS. JULIA WARD HOWE has been confined to her
house, in Boston, for two weeks past from the effects
of an accident, but is now recovering, and expects
soon to be able to go out.
THE Boston Traveller says that Mrs. John A. An.
drew, widow of the war Governor of Massachusetts,
and her daughters have not signed the petition for
woman suffrage, because they will not beg for what is
theirs by right.
Mr.. GATLING, of Calling gun fame, is a benevolent
looking Did gentleman, with snowy HAIR and whiskers.
He is slightly deaf, wears gold-rimmed spectacles, and
talks about his wholesale slaughtering machine as I'M
concernedly as though it were merely an improved
hay rake.
On the occasion of BakerPasha's battle at FL Teb
an English officer placed a revolver to the head of an
Egyptian and ordered him to advance. The Egyptian,
quietly putting aside the weapon, said, in an aston

Egyptian, " and he took to his heels.
A MAN was received into the Laborisiere Hospital,
Paris, the other day, with a yard of rope hanging from
his mouth. Traction upon the cord revealed a section
of clothes line measuring eight feet. He had been
surprised in an attempt at suicide and had tried to
conceal his design by swallowing the cord. He lived,
of course-they generally do.
Mr.. HENRY N. STANLEY, as seen some time ago by

grinning kinglets s~quatting in front of him, some of
them smoking long-stemmed, httle-bowled pipes in
complaeent silence, and others putting many ques.

his replies with expressions of incredulous wonder,
tapping their open mouths with their hands. Stanley

OF one thing you may rest assured: the

Copiah county, Mississippi, has been free to
say that the majority was murdered out Of
existence there, and that murder will be done
again. To all this the Democratic party has
given tacit approval. 1t can go on and plot,
and scheme, and pose as the friend of econo-

The White House is no place for the co,

THE information comes from Washington
that Mr.. Peelle is to be unseated in the inter
ests of Democratic 'harmony" in this dis
trict, and that Mr.. Mcdonald is at the capital
urging the members of the committee and
the House to award the seat to young Mr.. En-
glish. Wehave no idea that any argument upon
the merits of the case would have weight with
the Democratic majority, and, therefore, there
is a probability that the report may be true.
But there is this to be said; the unseating of
Mr.. Peelle will settle the congressional cam
paign in this district beyond a peradventure.
The majority for the Republican candidate,
in such an event, will be so large in November
next that there will be no pretext of a contest,
whoever the Democracy may conclude to make
his competitor.

CONSIDERABLE capital has been made of the
fact that quinine has been very much cheaper
since than before the removal of the duty on
that drug. It is argued conclusivelY there
fore, that the removal of the import duty
did it. If the plea is good, the increased de-
mand in America, owing to reduction in price,
should have had a marked tendency to stitfen
quotations in Europe. On the contrary, the
same decline has been noted there, so that the
increased ~cheapness cannot be ascribed to the
taking off of the duty formerly imposed. To

IF the rising generation is to abstain from
Intoxicating drink through principle and wise
Judgment rather than through compulsiOn,
then the temperance workers in New York
have taken a longer step forwad than their
brethren elsewhere, who seek to force prohi-

Women's Christian Temperance Union ofNew
York a bill making the study of the effects of
alcohol upon the human system compulsory in
the public schools has passed both houses of

was strongly opposed by brewers and manu-

THE track of the Cairo & st. Louis railway is
under water in many places, and On Saturday a
singular accident occurred. The trainmen have
been running trains through the water, and on
Saturday the engineer of a locomotive, before
reaching a piece of submerged track, instructed
the fireman, after filing the fre-box, to set his
foot firmly against the fire door, to prevent its
being blown open by the gases generated the in
slant the fire boxes were plunged into the water.
The approach was made with terrific speed,
made necessary to drive the engine through the

should cool down rs the deeper water was
reached the fires were instantly submerged, the

Professor John T. Campbell has a paper on

The reduction, then. it will be seen, was
about IS per cent. The price of quinine is
low all oven the world, and it is absurd to ar
que that the reduction of a 20 per cent tariff
by the United States has caused this decline.
Mr.. A. H. Jones, of the great q~uinine firm
of Powers & Weightman, Philadelphia, re-
plying to an argument offered by Mr.. J. S.
Moore, concludes his reply by saying:
ut is a fact that prices ruled at times about
as low in this country prior to the removal of
the duty as they have since. Let us go back
far beyond 1857-say, for example, to 1881,
when quinine sold down to $1.35 per ounce;
to 1884, when it was quoted at SIPS; to 1887,
when it sold at 81 40; to 1843, when it touched
81. SO; and to 1868, when it sold at $1.90, al
though foreign %quinine was dutiable 40 per
cent, and bark was dutiable 20 per cent. in
the last-named year. l want Mr.. Moore to
contrast the following figures: Let him take
the last-named price, for example, say $1.90
in the United States in 1868, with quinine du-
table 45 per cent, and bark dutiable
20 per cent, and contrast it with prices
ruling in free-trade England in 1877, say six
teen shillings sixpence, or about $4.12 IL,
when bark was free, quinine free and methy-
lated spirits free, and if he is as we1-versed,
and as fair in discussion as he should be, he
will not tell the people of this country that by
making quinine free in the United States-by
the removal of a 20-per-cent. duty-'we' have
reduced the price to one-half or less, not only
here, but all over the world"
