! rough and ready fighter, "full Of
strange oaths" and stranger vulgarities.

Grant and several brother officers, he
opened the conversation in some such
way As this: well. boys, I've got .
mighty good thing to tell you. It
would hardly do to repeat, Of
course, in the presence of ladies. :

who could not attack him grammatic-

where, he leaves it to be inferred, the
people do talk dramatically, his ro-

AsHocKING incident occurred at Caen
at the execution Of . man named Heurt-
event, who was found guilty Of having
murdered an elderly widow under afro
cious circumstances at st. Aubin. He
had previously been beside himself
with grief on hearing that there was
no hope of reprieve, but as his hour
drew nigh he became calmer. When
put into the tumbril which was to take
him to theguillotine he renewed his pro-
testations Of innocence, and on arriv-
ing ct the place Of execution he made
desperate efforts to break away from
the grasp of the executioner and his
assistants. Finally he had to be thrown
down on the block by sheer force. His
head was then seized and pushed under
the knife, which Instantly descended
and did its work without . hitch.
A LoNG-Losr portrait of Schiller has
been discovered in the old pilgrimage
resort of Grimmenthal, near Meinin-
gen. This portrait is mentioned by
Schiller himself in one Of his letters
printed by Bruckner, and the poet de-
scribed it as q very successful one in
his opinion. It is chalk drawing, and
was executed by the well-known Mem
ingen painter Reinhard in 1889. The

Although there has been no formal announce
ment of the Cleveland cabinet, and probably
will be till the list is sent TO the Senate its
composition is pretty well known. But one or
two places remain unassigned, and the choice
of men for these has narrowed down to a few
names There may be surprises in store for the
public, but the probability is that the cabinet
will be substantially as commonly understood
al this time.
1t will be generally acknowledged that the
advisers selected are distinguished and repre-
sentative men. Mr.. Cleveland may be criticised
for the favor he has shown the Atlantic sea-
board, but those who find fault with him for
this must have short memories if they have
already forgotten the great stress laid on the
importance of winning the support of that sec
ton of the country during the campaign. 1t
would be unreasonable for the east to give the
votes, and the west to dictate the policy.

the real cause is known by all who read the

issue of The STAR. 1t is the falling off in gov
eminent receipts rather than special and extra
ordinary disbursements that accounts for the
small balance from month to month in favor of
the Treasury. The government is feeling the

ported goods there is, of course, falling off in

home production, the effect appears in smaller
returns to the internal revenue bureau. Then
the recent tariff revision, while not so radical
as some feared and others hoped, has cut down
the Treasury receipts appreciably; so that from
one cause and another there is much less money
coming into the Treasury while the expendi-
lures remain about the same.

Mr.. Cleveland,s silver letter is plain. bold an

Mr.. Clevelaud's silver letter is plain, bold and
strong. IL is one that a politician would not
have written, but may be the more popular
with the country on that account. The disin-
clination of the silver men to have it published
Is easily explained. now that IL has appeared.
1t cannot fail to influence public opinion against
their favorite idea, and should financial trouble
visit the country during the recess they would
be held to severe responsibility. In such a
crisis, as Mr.. Cleveland warns them, the chief
sufferers will be the poor and the labOring
classes, and TO them those who precipitate the
trouble must give account
One feature in the letter will be peculiarly
Objectionable to the strict partisan, namely:
Mr.. Cleveland's open and candid endorsement
of the views of the republican administrations
on this question.
The history of this episode is fresh illustra-
ton that in Mr.. Cleveland the country will
have a President of positive ideas and deter
minatidn Of purpose. That he has not been
cowed by the "rebuke" in the House appears
from the fact that when Mr.. Warner tele-
graphed for permission to publish the letter he
promptly gave it, and when, upon consultation,
the silver men decided not TO publish it after
all, he immediately gave it out at Albany
himself.

Gladstone found his Egyptian policy sus.
tanned on a test vote last night by the narrow
majority OF fourteen in a house of six hundred
members. And, moreover, the vote was not so
much an endorsement of his policy as mark
ofpersonal sympathy and respect. Meanwhile
the British army is succeeding in getting safely
back TO It's base of supplies, which is not a very
glorious outcome of the first campaign, to be
sure, but nevertheless, under the circumstances
matter for rejoicing.
