Of the barricades in the streets about the
Courthouse. At noon the first street
cars Of the Mt. Auburn line were permit

since 80 on Saturday night, when the
pistol firing and stone throwing in front
OF the Courthouse so intimldated the
drivers and conductors that they refused
to further risk their lives. Travel OF all
kinds is at once resumed about the Court
house. One Of the first lots OF freight
delivered on North Court street was an
immense quantity of bacon to pork house
opposite the Courthouse. There is no

the sidewalks around the Courthouse for

ployed by friend whom ke had been visit
ing. has been indicted for criminal assault by
the court. Miss Cole related the de-
tails of the assault, and said that when Lord
St Leonards rang the door bell she let him
in; his lordship was drunk, and followed
her into the room, when he caught
and threw her to the floor, and sue
ceeded in accomplishing his purpose, she

BUSINESS INTERESTS.

THE argument hpon which the republi
cans have placed most reliance of late
years -since the bloody shirt was worn to
tatters-hss been the alleged danger to
the business interests of the country by
the success of gthe democracy Foolish
as it is, this cry undoubtedly influenced
many timid persons. An argument was
never less founded on fact. Within the
short time of ten years there have been
two long periodslOf depression, covering
indeed the greatest portion OF. the decade.
Commencing in 1878 with the gigantic
Jay Cooke failure. for six years every in
dustry was paralyzed. The business
interests" were never in worse condition
than between the autumn of 1878 and the
autumn of 1879. in the latter year busi4
ness revived rapidly and continued to
boom long enough to enable the republi-
cans to elect q president in 1880, more
upon the strength Of the general prosper
ity than on anything else. The volume
Of trade commenced to wane soon after
and values TO shrink, until the depression
eliminated In the lsat week s smash up.
This is the result of republican rule so fal
as the business interests are concerned
Looking at the matter in any aspect, the
democrats could certainly do no worse
than this. On the contrary change Of
policy at Washington would be very
likely to add new vigor to the business
interests. At any rate the experiment il
worth trying.

CREMATION has received a decided
boom from the action of Philadelphia
noted Surgeon, who left Instructions to
have his body burned. Before his death
be said: IF people could see the human
body after the process of decomposition
sets in, which is as soon as the vital spark
ceases to exist they would not want to be
buried; they would be in favor of crema-
ton Burying the body, l think, is hor
rible thing. Why. if people knew what
physicians know, what they have learned
in the dissecting room, they would look
upon burning the human body as beau
tiful art in comparison with burying it.
When l die I want my body burned.
There is no reason for keeping up the
burial custom, but many against it, some
OF the most practical of which are too
recently developed to need mention"
