Are You Going to New Orleans or
FIOridas

If SO you can go via the Monon Route
via Louisville or Cincinnati, and see
Mammoth Cave, Nashville, Blount
Springs, Birmingham, Montgomery,
Mo- lie and the Gulf Coast for Tho same
money that will take you via Cairo, and
through the dreary uninnabited, unin-
teresting Mississippi swamps. We are
confident the tourist cannot select a
line to the South enjoying half the ed
vantages that are possessed by the
MOn0n Route and it's southern connect
ION. No one should think of going
South without visiting Mammsth Cave,
the great Natural Wonder of this Cont
q at. So much has been written OF his
Grid famous wonder, that it is impos-
stole TO say anything new in regard to
it. 1t cs mot be described-its caverns
must be exptored-its darkness felt
its beauties seen to be realized. 1t is
the greatest natural curosity-Niagara
not excepted, and he whose expecta-
tons are not satisfied by it's marvellous
avenues, domes and starry grottoes
must be either fool or demi-god.
From Mobile to New Orleans, 100 miles,
the ride along tae Gulf coast is alone
worth the entire cost of the trip--in
full SIGHT of the Gulf-all the way past
Q can Springs, Mississippi City Pass,
Chlrstia BAY, st. Louis, and Beauvoir,
the home of Jeff Davis. When you de-
eide to go south, m Ike up your mind to
travel over the line that passes through
the best country, and gives you the best
places to stop over. This is exceptionally
the Monon Route In connection with the

A SQUARE issue has been rai;ed be-

agents now investi lating the alleged
undervaiuation of foreign invoices at
the Gust House in New York. The
latter have au thorized the announce
ment that they have already discovered
enough to show that there has been q
ring there for swindiing the govern
mint, not only by undervaluatlons, but
also by the abatc menG of duties under
fraudu ent allowances for damages.
This is flat contribution of the aver
ments of the special committee which
ia a report submitted to that body on
the Sth ef the month took the ground
that "not many dollars are lost to the
revenue at this port by reason of viii
full undervaluation, and that the hue
and cry to the contrary has it's origin
in the imagination or Invention of pro-
tected interests or of Treasury special
agents. :"

ADvIcEs by mail from Spain de-
scribe the terror and suffering among
the people of the provinces recently
couvulsed BY earthquakes as pitiful in
the extreme. Entire villages and
hamlets are in ruins, some Of the PEG
pie perishing, and the inhabitants OF
the entire country are in a fearful
state Of trepidation, not knowing at
what instant their homes may tumble
down over their heads. There is great
suffering among rich and poor alike
from hunger and q lack of the ordin-
AIRY comforts of life, many being eth
er homeless or afraid to take shelter
in their homes. Earthquake shocks
are Of almost daily occurrence.

AS to the treaties, it is very doubt
full now whether the Mexican treaty
enabling act can be passed. That the
Spanish treaty will either be post
poned until next Congress or that If
brought up it would fail of ratifca-
ton, there can be little doubt. 1t has
not yet been reported frcm the For
eign Relations Committee. The oppo-
sition to it is so strong that its oppo-
nents think it will not be reported. The
policy of the democratic leaders III
the Senate is said to prevent action GA
any of these treaties, in order that
the new administration may choose
its own commercial and foreign
policy. The possible exception to this
is the Nicaragua treaty, which has
greater strength, but in view Of the
very evident determination to discuss
this treaty indefinitely, it IS posi-
BILE that no vote will be reached upon
it at this session. Altogether, there
seems little reason to think that any
action will be had upon any of the
important pending business meas
ures.

COLONEL A. K. MCCLURE, of
Philadelphia, predicts revolution In
the cotton aad iron interests of the
country. Writing from Atlanta,
Ga. ne says: How long will Penn
sylvania manufacturers make iron at
SIC or SIS ton when they can make
it In Alabama for So or $40, with
inexhaustible beds of the best ore,
coal and limestone close to each
other9 And how long will northern
capitol spin cotton 500 or 1000 miles
from the cotton fields, with costly
transportation, when they can spin it
much cheaper and without trauspor
tation on any of the many streams in
the cotton states, which furnish the
best water power that Winter never
interrupts? The climate of the south
is factor in cheapening labor that
must soon assert itself, and the
revolution IN the manufacture of iron
and cotton, now in the infancy of
development, will rapidly attract
Northern capital to the reconstructed
states. Peace has come at last be-
tween north and south, and the grand
consummation viii be attested by the
union of FORCES and spindles from the
lakes TO the gulf.

THREE distinct explosions, supposea
to be of dynamite, occurred in the
city of London Saturday afternoon.
The first was in the crypt of West
minister Hall; the second was In the
Strangers Gallery in the House OF
Commons, and the third was In the
Tower of London. The three events
were nearly simultaneous, or occur
red in rapid succession, and produced
an Undesirable degree of excitement
and alarm That portion of the tower
known as the 'White Tower" was the
scene of the explosion in that building,
and there was the usual throng OF
visitors when it occurred. Fourteen
persons are reported as having been
injured. Both Houses of Parliament
are in the Westminster Hall, and the
tower is about two miles distant. The
two buildings are of historical interest,
and are situated on the left bank of
the river Thames. Parliament is not
liz session at present, aid no person Is
reported to have been injured by the
explosion in Westminster Hall. Some
of the costly windows were wrecked
and other damage was done, includ-

lobby of the House of Commons
