what Troubles Our Great Men.

CnlCagO NsW5.
Senator Sharon's trouble with the beautiful
and accomplished Miss Aggie Hill continues to
absorb the attention of that San Francisco
court and there is every prospect that the dis
gushing case will drag its Shiny length through
the entire summer. Our great and good men
appear to have been wofully pestered by female
only one who has succeeded in quietly. getting
rid of his importunate inamorata. We had an
idea that the Colonel would be dragged into the
courts before he had done with that pesky fe-
male vulgarly known as the star-eyed Goddess of
Reform. but we find that our fears were vain.
The star eyed goddess will bother the Colonel
no more. She was smothered between two
feather beds in Chicago last week; never again
will we hear the sound of her hoof upon the
hill-her enliveuing yawp will never again dis
turb the circumambient atmosphere of our fair
land. Colonel Watterson is to be congratulated;
at the same time we hope his severe experience
has taught him lesson he will never forget.

scheme to swindle insurance Companies.

ST. LOUIS, July 17-Advices from Littletown,
Ringgold county, Iowa, say great excitement
prevailed there yesterday over the finding of the
dead body of man in the Office of DR.. Eli
Quigy Fire was discovered in the Doctors
Office yesterday morning, and the partially
burned body of the dead man was found on
cot which was ablaze. At first it was thought
to be DR.. Quigly, but examination proved it to
be the headless trunk of the partly decomposed
body of a man named Lynch who died and was
buried early in June. Further investigation re-
vealed the fact that DIR. Quigly had disap-
peared, and that he had life insurance policies
for $40, 900 in the Northwestern Mutual, of Mil
waukee. and for S. 600 in the Bankers Associa-
ton, both taken out within one year; and the
conclusion reached by the people is that Lynch's
grave was robbed, his body placed in DIR.

Another question: next in dignity, is that of

not accept the teachings of that political econ
omy, with its tidings of despair, which tells us
that it is the lot of the workman forever to toll
for bare life. We believe this country is gov

erned, by the men who work with their hands on
farms and in shops. Unless these men shall
have return for their labor, which shall bring
them leisure, comfort education for their chill
dren, they cannot preserve the qualities needed
for citizenship, and the republic must fall
There may be great and powerful nation on
this continent on other terms. but there cannot
be a great republic. This end can only be Sc
cured by the maintenance of the American sys-
tenn. The prices of many other things, tho crates
of exchange, are, in the artificial arrangements
of commerce, determined in Great Britain. We
do not propose to annex American labor to that
market. We believe that by a judicious system
Of protection, framed for that purpose, this re-
suit can be and is secured and that agriculture,
manufacture ana commerce will alike be bene-
flied. A few theoretic economists. a few college
professors, and the great bulk of the old owners
Of plantations and slave labor differ with us
We propose to debate that question with them
and take the verdict Of the American people.

belonging to the Gloucester schooner Abbie F.

eastward of St Pierre island, at the point of
death. The men left their vessel in six dories
on the morning Of July 5, on the Grand Banks
to take up their travis The wind was blowing
strong with dense fog, The crews got astray
and rowed about for thirty hours, hoping to
reach the vessel They then headed for st.
Pierre, distant 200 miles. During four days and
nights they were without food, water, or rest
Three fishing vessels picked them up and took
them to st. Pierre. Their captain, Norris and
the cook, drifted out to sea-
