THE natural gas that spolts from bored
wells in Pittsburg and vicinity is accom-
phshing all that was expected Of it. The
supply is abundant, and as yet there are no
signs of exhaustion. At present 1900
dwellings, and AS manufacturing estsb-
lishments are using the gas, which serves
for both heating ard lighting purposes. 1t
is much cheaper than coal, and it is est,
mated that it has already dispensed with
5000 or 10000 tons Of coal per day in the
city. This coal is worth, q, g so q ton.
SO. 600 to $4,000 q dsy-the mining Of it
costing $4,000 to $500. The withdrawal
Of this large amount of money from the
mining population must already be severely
felt, and a. the present rate it is difficult to
tell what the effect will De upon the mining
trade.

MALONE, of Virginia, is said not to take
very kindly TO q Republican majority in
the Ohio election. Republican campaign
funds are about exhausted in that State
and MAHOSE has been hoping that the
Ohio Legislature would be Democratic,

mittes into spending money in Virginia to
secure q Republican Senator. Meanwhile
~dissensions In hisranks increase. CAMERON,
Grover and others who have been with
him are now organizing q movement
against him. His eolored followers are cry
ing for money, aud limiting that be is not
acting squSrely BY them; and, to make his
situation more precarious, the ride Of the
Fitzhugh Lee cavalry over the country has
demoraIized his forces in his last strong
hold and firmly united the Democrats. In
the counties where the vote Of the blacks
is large, MAHoSE's ineendiAry appeals to
them have had the effect of making them
uuarrelsome. Since MALONE is looking
out for No. l, the situation does not seem
10 him in the least encouraging.

MANY people in Cincinnati, irrespective

punishment for those who we're guilty OF
instigating frauds. As the greatest ex-
element occurred hear the scene of the
riot in 1884, it is difficult to tell Whatwould
have happened should the men have been
aroused still more by discussion at the In
tended mass meeting. Fraud and cor
ruption by any class does not pay. 1t may
accomplish q purpose for q time, but the
people are the great power behind the

Hendricls. and The oivil service.

Memphis, Tenn, Avalanche, June eth.
Since the administration is every way
committed TO civil service reform and the
enforcement of the law on that subject, it
was gross and boorish offense to good
taste and propriety in Mr.. Hendricks to
open his mouth on the subject. Mr..
Hendricks is very good man. In his
day he has made an excellent executive
official, displaying marked administrative
ability. In the Senate he rose to the
height of craftsmanship. Mr.. Hendricks
day has passed. He is out of time and
tune. Many good man in his day
wouldn't fit this day. If Mr.. Hendricks
wants to make himself the leader of the
mouthing opposition of the administration
let him say SO. The issue will not be
lodged IL were best it had a leader, and
of Mr.. Hendricks character and standing.
by all means let fossilism stand on its
best leg and make its last fight under
heroic auspices and well led.

The parties to the complaint consented to
the withdrawal .'under charges" and the
