The most distinguished scoundreI
of the age is Geo. NJ. Bartholomew, of
Hartford, Conn.,, who recently robbed
several banks and bankrupted half a
dozen other concerns with which he
was connected. He even stole $780,
600 from an orphan asylum of which
his wife was the treasurer. We sup
pose he has arrived all o. K. in Can
ada and is now one of the leading
lights of the American colony of
renegade bank presidents and cashiers
at Montreal.

A MOST disastrous fire occurred at
New Iberia on the morning of the 9th

of the town were destroyed, including

! Ex-SEEAToR THURMAN, in a speech
in acknowledgment of serenadc at
Cincinnati the other night, expressed
the strength of his Democracy as
follows; "When my dying day comes,
as soon 1t must, and my eyes are turn
ed to behold the sun in the heavens
for the last time, il will be the eyes
Of a Democrat that will look upon that
orb" This sounds little like part
of the peoration of Webster's reply to
HayPe, which runs: "When my eyes
shall be turned to behold for the last
time the sun in heaven, may i not see
him shining oD,p etc. Plagiarists will
derive some comfort from the simili-
tnde, for certainly no ono would think
of accusing Judge Thurman of doing
dishonest.

The New York World says: "Col-
lector Jonas, of New Orleans, expresses
himself as heartily in favor of a second
term for Mr.. Cleveland He thinks
that President merely fits himself
for service during the first term, and
that it is only in the second that the
people can secure the full fruition of
his intellect and his experience. Col
lector Jonas thinks that Mrs. Cleye-
land would not object to a second
term. In this Mr.. Jonas doubtless ex-
presses the sentiment of all the new
collectors and all the newly appointed
postmasters. 1t may be pernicious
activity on his part to say SO, but We
cannot help admiring his eandor."
