The funeral of Victor Hugo w

The funeral Of Victor Hugo was
the most popular colossal fete that
Paris has ever seen. There was nc
sadness, no solemnity, but, on the con-
trary, pagan gayety, the festivity of a
triumph. 1t was the manifestation of
a purely human worship.-Letter from
Paris.
Russell Sage is reported to have
lost fully eight million dollars in spec
ulation last year. He is still very
wealthy, but is growing more cautious
and has not the dash of his younger
years. He takes no chances now, pre-
ferring to invest in assured interests,
and has ceased to be power in Wall
street.
Out of five hundred and nine mem
bers of the House cf Lords, not less
than four hundred and forty are land
lords in the fullest sense of the term;
that is, they derive the whole or the
greater part of their revenues from
land. Fifteen million acres of land,
with an aggregate rent roll Of fifteen
million pounds, represent their prop
erty and income. while another seven
hundred and fifty thousand dollars, in
the shape of pensions, annuities and
salaries, also falls annually to the LOT
of this privileged class
Colonel BriceS the Ohio millionaire,

the question as to how many children

dispute it. Last year he cultivated
twenty acres of land and raised an
abundance of peas, corn and potatoes.

~ather, Mother, and Three Sisters Dead.

*atheT, Motnef, ana Inree Slsters Ueau.
Mr.. David CIaypool, formerly Sergeant
.t-Arms ofthe New Jersey Senate, and now
Notary Public at Cedarville, Cumberland
Co., n. j., makes the following startling
statement: "My father, mother, and three
sisters all died with consumption, and my
lungs were so weak raised blood. Nobody
thought I could live. My work (ship-
smithing was very straining on me with my
weak constitution, and ] was rapidly going
to the grave. While in this condition :
commenced using Mishler's Herb Bitters,
and it saved my life. Because it was SO
difficult to get it in this little place, and l
had improved SO much, stopped taking it
for time, and the result is that | have
commenced going rapidly down hill again.
Somehow, Mishler's Herb Bitters gives
appetite and strengthens and builds me up
as nothing else does, and / must have
dozen bottles at once. Use this commu-
nication es you please, and if any one wants
to be convinced of its truth, let them write
me and | will make affidavit to it, for |
owe my life to Mishler's Herb Bitters.'
The secret of the almost invariable relief
and cure of consumption, dysentery, diar-
rhea, dyspepsia, indigestion, kidney and
liver complaints, when Mishler's Herb
Bitters is used, is that it contains simple,
harmless, and yet powerful ingredients,
that act on the blood, kidneys, and liver,
and through them strengthens and invigor-
ates the whole system. Purely vegetable
in its composition; prepared by regular
physician; standard medicinal prepare
ton; endorsed by physicians and drug
gists. These are four strong points in favor
of Mishler's Herb Bitters. Mishler's Herb
Bitters is sold by all druggists. Price S1.00
per large bottle. 6 bottles for $500.
Ask your druggist for NIsHLFR's HERB BITTERs.

\ Democratic newspaper says that the laws ci
Rhode Island diafranchse citizens of that state,
and are rs bad MS The South Carolina method OF
preventing voters from casting their votes. The
difference between the two States Is plaiu one.
The laws Of Rhode Island provide that certain
classes of Its people shall not vote The basis OF
voting Is intelligence, not the party TO which the
voter belongs. In South Carolina citizens, with
out regard To their intelligence or the want of it,
are prevented by intimidation and violence,
from voting, merely because they are Repub
Leans or have II skin OF an unfortunate color
The distinction between acknowledgements in
Rhode Island and in South Carolina is very
crcditable to the institutions of Rhode Island
The above was printed in the
Tribune of last week as an original
editorial; but it is safe to presume
that, like a majority of items in The
Tribune purporting to be original
editorials, it was clipped from some
equally purblind party organ. But
rarely if ever, is so much sublime
ignorance and impudent presump-
ton exhibited in SO few words In
the first place, the basis of voting in
Rhode Island is not intelligence.
That little republican stronghold
has a property qualification which
prohibits foreigners from voting
unless they pay taxes upon certain
amount of real estate. This law
appears upon the statue books OF
Rhode Island, and is by no means a
dead letter, it being to day in full
force and effect; and was defended
openly by such prominent repub-
lican leader as Senator Anthony, on
the floor Of the senate and in the
November 1883 number of the
North American Review. While in
the second place, the charges that
there is at present any general in
timidation in the south have no
foundation in fact, and are only
romances emanating from the fertile
brains of Senator Sherman, Hoar, and
other opponents of the policy of
sectional hate If the editor of The
Tribune is so devoid of honesty as
10 republish articles from his ex-
changes without giving proper credit,
he ought at least to have intelli-
gence enough to avoid copying an
article containing such an egregious
blunder as the one quoted above.
With intelligence the basis of voting
in Little Rhody it would never do
for him to become member of that
select commonwealth.
