known that the amendment was adopted,

ticket. In this county William Loeb
who has been county clerk for several
terms, was defeated at ths October election,
AS soon as he knew Of the adoption of the
constitutional amendment he had his name
placed on the ticket to be voted for in No
vember. He had no opposition, and re-
ceived great many votes, whereupon he
declared that he was the legally elected
clerk of the county, and would retain pos
session Of the Office. Saturday the term for
which he had been elected expired, and VIII.

election, appeared to take possession of the

RANDALL FEELS 1T HOME.

His Reception at Birmingham, Ala.-visit-
ing the Coal Mines.
BIRMINGHAM, Ala, Jan. MIR. Randall
delighted Birmingham Thursday, and his
expressions show that an equally agreeable
impression has been made On the great
apostle of protection by what he has seen
here. He won the applause and full SYM
pathy of every interest here by his speech
from the platform of the car On the arrival
of the special train at $50 o'clock in the
morning. In reply to speech Of
welcome from Mayor Lane, he
said he had long desired to visit the
place that shipped iron into the district in
Pennsylvania which he represented in con-
gress, and declared that mo labor of mine
will be given toward enacting laws which
will prevent you from competing with any
land or country whatsoever. Never will
consent to the enactment Of law allowing
England to put her products with cheaper
price into our markets. See what differ
ence there is between the laboring man here
and in the European countries. There, they
are mere parts of machine; here, work
ingman can rise to any heighth."
The visitors spent the better part of the day
at the mines of the Pratt Coal and Iron COM
pany, a most interesting mining property
The company's lands are the most extensive
coal interest in the world. From the four
openings, which the party visited, from co.
600 to q, 600 tons of coal are mined daily.
The equipment and method of work are
thoroughly scientific.
CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, Jan. 5-Mr. Ran
dali and party arrived here on Saturday
and were received by the mayor with
short address OF welcome. Mr.. Randall re-
sponded, saying that one of the results of his
southern trip has been to instruct him how
he might, by his votes and words in congress,
aid in promoting the interests of the south
ern states. Mr.. Randall started for WASH

THE NATIONAL BANKS.
No Indication That They viii Surrender
Their Charters.

No Indication That They Will Surrender
Their Charters.
CHICAGO, Dec 31.-During the year 1885
the corporate existence Of no less than no
national banks will cease, unless they avail
themselves of the act providing for the ex-
tension Of the terms of their existence. OF
these, large number are banks located in
the state of New York. 1t was natural,
therefore, that there should be some little ex-
element when the statement appeared
In print that the national banks Of
that state would allow their char
ters to expire, surrender their
circulation, and continue business without
circulation under the state law. That course
would involve a considerable contraction of
the paper circulation of the country, which
is something that the American people have
become accustomed to regard with supersti-
tious dread. Mr. Cannon, the comptroller
of the currency, says there is not tho slight
est justification for tho story. He says that,
while the charters of three fourths.. of the
banks of New York city and one-half of
those of the state expire during the coming
year, he has not received an intimation from
a single bank that it will relinquish its
charter rights, while all those whose charters
have recently expired or are about to expire
have promptly taken steps to secure q
continuance Of their charter existence.

from Sicily. The American article is
richer in tannic acid than the Sicilian,
but the imported leaf commands the
highest price for the reason that, as yet,
the Virginia mountaineers have not
learned the importsnceo of keeping their
leaves as free from sand and grit as do
the careful Italians. The leather dealer
says that the least speck of dirt or grit
max es flaw in the leather. The Ital-
ian leaf is used by the print cloth factor
les of New England. Print cloths soaked
in q eolution of sumach retain their dyes
through all conditions of exposure to
weather.
The bush in the Virginia mountains is
known as the ''stsghorn sumach." 1t
grows in great luxuriance until the leaves
have been stripped off for several sea-
SONS, when the bush will die if let alone.
In this emergency the mountaineer
bitches his horse to a long, narrow
pointed shovel plov called a "buil-
tongue" and plows about theroots, break,
ing and tearing them apart. From the
torn roots fresh bushes spring up, and
the next season crop of leaves thicker
and darker than ever amply rewards
his homely toll.

It seems that the imperial meeting at

hours, has cost the Austrian court
reasury upward of 100000. 1t is a
proof Of the morbid state of terror and
apprehension in which the Car exists
that, on arriving in Kremsier, he refused
to occupy the splendidly furnished apart
ments which had been prepared for him
self in a couple of and installed
himself rooms at the other end
of the palace which had been destined
