Gen. Logan did his best to prevent his friends from making any demonstration upon his return to Washington. But he has 8 great many, and they couldn't be kept down. They were afraid to use the old cannon at Washington for firing salutes so they sent to Philadelphia for new gun. Then the district authorities forbade them to fire salute in Washington, so they tel egraphed to Gov. Cameron of Virginia, and obtained leave from him to blaze away on the soil of the Old Dominion.

PEOPLE who invest their hard earned savings in lottery tickets will take pleasure in knowing what their contributions have done. A half-owner in the Louisiana lot tery was killed recently by fall from a horse, and his estate inventoried $500, ,OO0, all made out of his lottery profits, on which he had been living like belligerent rooster. The term ''hard earnings is not misplaced, in speaking of his dupes, for the great mass of these are in the lowest
 degrees of of'poverty. It would surprise the people of every Connecticut town If they knew what an immense drain the Louisiana gambling shop is upon the finances of their respective communities, and upon what class the drain comes-in many cases the contributors are themselves re- cipients of charitable aid from their neigh bors or parishes The laws of Connecticut prohibit the advertising or aiding of these gambling institutions, yet the managers find means to get before the public in glowing language accounts of great prizes drawn. here and there, and thus keep their dupes in the hopeful condition needed to insure their perseverance. There are two dailies in the state consplcu-- ous for the degrees in which they lend their columns to this-we may well say criminal business. They should be made to feel the weight of popular disappreval.

Hartford Courant The friends of Yale are beginning to be anxious over an apparent decline in the high standard of scholarship which has been maintained in the ball field for so many years. There is at present every prospect that Harvard will win the college championship this year, Yale having already suffered two de- feats. one from Harvard and one from Princeton. To tie Harvard Yale must win the three remaining games which is hard ly probable, as the Dartmouth nine is gen. orally regarded as stronger than that of Yale. Harvard has only two more games to play, Yale and Brown, and by winning either game it is sure of first place. This is regarded as great triumph for the op- ional system.

THE growing unpopularity of Glad stones administration as premier of Eng land has finally eliminated in an adverse vote to measures of his recommendation in parliament, and in accord ance with tra- ditional custom resignation of the minis try will probably follow. The measure of division was merely matter of tax on beer, but it shows majority in opposition and the non-importance of the matter don't count. It seems ludicrous though, that after having held the parliamentary support thro' several questions involving war, boundary lines, and the problem of Ireland's government, the ministry should strand on the question of beer tax. An other warning to let beer alone.

THE railroads of the state are treating the short haul bill as nullity, we are told, even increasing the burdens on non- competing points that the bill was intend ed to tighten. This act shows that these corporations feel confident that the act drawn is imperfect. They would not dare ignore law of like character unless they knew that it's meshes were course enough to permit them to slip through. The rail- roads make mistake in the discrimina- ton against competing points that makes legislation needed. It is such a course that is multiplying railroads and dividing up an amount of business that fewer corporations could do. It is this course that makes places like Stafford Springs look around for duplex avenues to and from market, and that is leading all such towns in self defense to invest money in local railroads. The manufacturing in- terest of this village cannot rest contented and see Willimantic and Palmer enjoy such cheaper rates and greater privileges as to give them immense advantages in trade and manufactures. It is for the in- terest of the railroads to treat non- com peting points fairly, and thus make both short haul bills and additional railroads unnecessary.

The N. fl. p A. RECEIvERsHIP. The hear
ing of The application of Messrs. A. Schultz a.
Co., creditors of the Northern Hartford Packing
Association, through their counsel, MIR. s. A.
Williams, for the appointment of receiver for
that concern, was set for Monday last,
but was deferred. On the same day Mcssrs.
Herman Stump and Henry w. Archer, Jr rep
resenting members of the packing association
and its general creditors, also filed bill for the
appointment of y receiver to wind up the affairs
of the association, and Wednesday was fixed for
hearing the case. The bill alleges that GER
tain favored creditors have been permitted TO
take goods belonging to the association and
transport them beyond the ju risdcton of Har-
ford county court, and are removing such goods
in large quantities, day by day, by railroad and
canal; Also that the proceeds of the sales of
these goods are to be credited on account of the
amount due the favored creditors by the ASSOC
citation. The petitioners pray that all the
creditors, including the members, may share
alike according TO the priority Of their claims.
The defendants, through their counsel, Messrs.
Archer It VanBibber, on Wednesday filed
lengthy answer, denying all the allegations of
the compliments, averrng that the packing as.
ISOLATION is not nsolvent, and fgranted time it
can pay all Its Indebtedness. The answer is un-
der the oath of the President of the Association,
Mr.. w. Scott Whiteford. The complainants
will therefore have to offer evdei ce to the court
in support of their allegations.
The case will probably be heard by Judge
Wa tiers to-day.

The visit Of the Prince and Princess OF Wales
to Ireland was an effort of the British govern
ment TO conciliale the Irish people, but it does
not appear to have been successful The
royal party arrived on Monday at NAL
low Junction, County Cork. A large and rough
crowd ran against the Prince and Princess, but
they were dispersed by the police, at the point
of the bayonet. Three Irish members of Parlia.
mcnt, who are said to have led the rush, were
injured.
While the procession in which they were riding
was passing through the streets of Cork there
was much disorder. In the evening there were
rioous demonstrations between the loyalists
and nationalists. The police charged on the
mob with pistols aud fixed bayonets. Many
persons were injured before the riot was ouel-
ed. The hospitals are filled with wounded po-
lcemen and rioters.
