Rev. Burchard in retirement is called

souri, legislature, IS emphatically Op-
posed to railroads. He says he can see

Since it has been published that per-
sonaIly Morrison is one of Gen. Logan's
best friends it has been noted that MOrri-
son has not advised the General to write
a book, and docs not want him to 60 back
10 the Senate. Such man as Morrison
knows exactly what IS best for a friend.
Gen. Wolseley having reformed as to the
cigarette habit and given away the case
in which he was used to carry his twO-fOr-
accent smokes, has probably taken to
using strong Turkish tobacco. Perhaps
hs viii learn wisdom from Ii MahdI, and
break up cigarette smoking among his
soldiers.

brighter. The Philadelphia Press rises TO

Logan is going to be reelected to the
United States Senate from Illinois, The
Press is getting to be pretty good false
prophet of late. The opposite Of what
it predicts generally happens
II now appears that the stockholders of
the inauguration ball will not get any ex-
tensive dividends. Indeed, they viii be
fortunate il they get their money back.
II is estimated that the expenses were
about $4,000 and that the receipts will
amount to about the same. 1t was the
grandest bali OF the day, however.
While Gen. Lew Wallace has resigned
his first class sinccurc at Stamb0ul it
must not be for a moment believed that
he or any other Republican patriot IS re-
signed to his fate. The word resign is
"a bitter mockery when it comes from the
lips Of those who have outlived the power

Old ice Goss. the veteran prize fighter

bed the fire comes in his eyes at the men
ton Of the ring. and he is firmly of the be-
lief that John L. Sullivan is the greatest

John r. Mclean says he means to he
the next Senator from Ohio. From pres
ent indications il is probable that he will
first have to get rid Of John Sherman,

DibreH and Neal, ex-Cougressman
and Congressman.elect from East Ten
nessee. are quarreling about who shall
control the patronage OF the District.

cency should be observed even among the
politicians OF East Tennessee.

two deceased brethren OF that city at the
Academy Of Music Tuesday, March

DR.. Burchard has been retired By his con-
gregation. 1t says that his retirement to
private life leaves only a very slim chance
Of another successful campaign to the
Democracy. The Tribune assumes that

knocked out" so easily in 1884 will
hardly be an antagonist that the strength
ened Democracy will fear IN 1855.
