Gathering Up the Fragments and Pluck
ing Order Out of Chaos--Hope
for the Future.

CINCINNATI, o., April The situation
Ing is more reaSsuring than it has been
since last Friday night. There were no
crowds about the barricades. The few
militiamen there rested carelessly on their
arms. little shower of rain drove them
all to shelter, leaving the barricades de-
serted. The least disturbance at the out
side lines, however, caused them to rush
TO arms.
A dog fight just beyond the barricade
on West Court street created great excite
ment and the soldiers formed in line of
battle and instantly the enclosed space
about the Courthouse and Jail was filled
with militiamen in groups maneuvering
or squads relieving one another for
breakfast and sleep. Stacks of arms
were standing about amid the debris of
the Courthouse ruins, while the Gattling
gun was taken in out Of the wet.
Everybody expresses confidence that
the present trouble is over. The Four
tccuth regiment and several other COM
panies will leave for home to-day. The
jail being the headquarters and sleeping
place Of large number of troops is con-
tinuaIly thronged with blue coats, and the
one narrow passage-way leading into it is
at all times almost impossible.
A company of the First regiment, led by
Colonel Hunt, and the First Regiment
band marched out this morning to attend
the funeral Of Captain Desmond.

work in tearing away the iron work, the
fire was eXtinguished.
The Sixth Regiment will 90 home to
morrow, but the main body of the troop,

Bliss Again Blows His Bazoo.

WASHINGTON, D. c., April l.-George
Bliss was again before the Springer Com
mittee to-day. He began with an expla-
nation of his former testimony relating
to Cooks connection with the Star
routes and the character Of the papers
Cook had in his possession. He stated
that there were sixteen routes in the
original Dorsey indictment. The de-
PENDANTS were continually in possession
of information respecting Cooks papers.
Witness didn't think Attorney Brewster
ever told Cook. He (Brewster) couldn't
deal with witness as he would like to be.
cause the witness was instrumental in Sc.
curing Brewster's appointment. Witness
again reiterated his disparaging reference
to COrkhill as District Attorney.

The Public Debt.

WAsHINGToN, d. c., April 1.-The
reduction Of the debt for March will
be over fourteen millions, thus making
reduction of over eighty-two millions for
three-quarters of the current fiscal year.
The reduction for the entire year will go
considerably beyond one hundred mil
lions. 1t is interesting and important to
note that when the lst of May call for
three per cent. bonds natures, the out
standing threes will be reduced to two
hundred and forty-flve millions. A call
for ten millions to mature in June will be
made to-day The prospect is that the
fiscal year will close with only two
hundred and twenty-five millions of the
outstanding threes uncalled.

How to Make Wheels.

/ heard DIR. Scudder use good mis-.
sionary illustration lately, which wish
to relate to the children. On his re-
turn from India he made short stay in
London. While there he went one day
with his family to visit the Crystal Palace
That was the building where The first
worlds fair" was held, and it has been
kept up as kind of perpetual fair ever
since. Among the curious things which
pleased the children very much was a
great collection of toys. One set con-
sisted of an old woman with wash tub,
a wind mill with its sails all set for work,
mason with his trowel, a big rooster
with his wings Just ready to flap and his
throat to crow, aud several other similar
pieces. Wouldn't it be fun" said one
of the missionary's little folks. to see all
these things move ?" Now the children
might have stood about there forever,
wishing, hoping, and even praying, for
this end, but it would do no good. But
Just drop penny into little slip left for
it, and behold the mason began to work,
the windmill to turn, the old woman to
rub her clothes, and the rooster to crow.
The money started the whole machinery.
So, Mr.. Scudder said, it was with this
mission work. The church had been
praying great while for the Lord to
"open the way" for his gospel. He had
opened it 80 wide that the laborers did
not know what to do. They could not
occupy tenth of the ground. The
church now needed to drop in the money
if they would see the works move. Isn't
it blessed thing that the children's pen
MES can help start the wheels. Chrysos-
tom advised to keep an offering box in
the place where one usually prays, and
begin every act of devotion with a gift.
l am sure we should all pray better for
it, and know the Lord will add his
blessing to such gifts.-Mrs. Conaughy,
in Presbyterian Home Missionary.
