willing Prisoners in ludloM Street.


In the course of the debate on this
bill in the Legislature prisoner was
discovered who had been for five years
confined in q county jail and who re-
fused to be discharged. The debt was
small sum, and the expense of keep
ing the man has been great deal more
than the debt ITSELF in othtr words, the
Sta Q would have made money if it had
paid the debt and discharged the man
IN the first place. Now the man abso-
lutely refuses to 60 or pay his debts,
and the difficult problem comes up OF
how to get him out of jailP One Legs
lator, who, of course, is evidently an
Irishman, suggests that the jail be re-
moved and built elsewhere, leaving
the man to remain if he wants
to where he is. If the records

BILE. One or them, who had been there
seven years, in 1871, kept the cigar
stand and saloon in the jail. An ex-
animation of the iniquities of the prison
led. in 1871, to general delivery of
the all; but this man was one who abb
solutely refu ed to leave, although his
discharge was directed by Judge Ber-
nard. 1 do not know know whether he
still remains there, but if he is alive it
is safe to assert he does. He was in

cradle amount.-M. Y EUening Post.

Concerning Tact.

The noble creature man vet lacks one
or two points of being perfect, and
among these may be counted rather

undertake too much, to overtax herself,
to wear out her life too rapidly. Her
ambition far exceeds her strength.

The American College at Rome.

Secretary Frelinghnysen has received
q telegram from W. w. Astor, United
States minister to Italy, stating thai
the American college had been exempted
from the propaganda sale. The atten-
ton Of President Arthur was called sew
eral weeks since by Cardinal McClosky
and another eminent Roman Catholic
prelate IN this country 10 the proposed
sale, by order Of the Italian govern
ment. Of propaganda property at Rome,
including the American college. The
propaganda property was levied upon
by the Italian government under the
laws of 1866 and 1873. Proceedings
we're enioined by the lower court, bnt
Its decision was eventually reversed by
the supreme court of the kingdom and
8 sale ordered. With a view to saving
the American college Cardinrl McCIos-
key and other prelatcs of the Roman
Catholic church Of this country re-
quested the invention Of the United
States government in its behalf. Bv
direction of the president, the secretary
OF state addressed a note TO, Minister
Astor, instructing him to lay the facts
of the case before the Italian govern
ment and endeavor TO obtain, if not the
perpetual abandonment OF the i'm
pending sale, a stay of proceedings that
would enable friends of the college in
this country to determine whether any
remedy could be devised. nstor was
further informed that while the
American college is technically held by
the propaganda it is virtually American
property that has been built up and
supported by money from this country.
and its sale would sacrifice interests ex-
clusiyely American. From Astor's
telegram it appears that his representa-
tons hare had the desired effect. and
the American college will be exempted
entirely from the impending sale of the
propaganda property.
