The United States officers have not hest
tated in their proceedings against the British
seal fishermen captured in Behring Sea. The
captain and mate of the Thornton were tried
by jury at Sitka, found guilty, sentenced
each to thirty days of Imprisonment and to
pay fines, the captain one of $500, and the
mate one of $500. The captain of one of the
other British schooners which was seized
with the Thornton has disappeared 1t is
thought that the prospect of speedy trial and
such heavy punishment drove him to sui
eide. The action of the Canadian govern
ment. in view of these facts will be of inter-
est. There is considerable opportunity for
dispute in this matter.

The governors of the original thirteen
States who met in Philadelphia last week to
arrange for celebrating on September 18th,
1887, the centennial anniversary of the pro-
mitigation of our constitution, have left the
arrangement of details to the governors of
Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Delaware,
Maryland and Georgia. The people of Rhode
Island are much pleased that their State

Lieutenant Hem is to have another chance
to match the Galatea against the Mayfower,
and special pains are to be taken to have
such breeze as will be most favorable to
the Galatea. The race is to be sailed off
Marblehead, and is spoken of as "consola-
ton" race. But it is hardly probable that
the Mayfiower will allow Lieut.. Hem much
consolation, even in Galatea weather.

Judge McAllister, whom President Cleye-
land removed from the office of judge in
Alaska, has been relieved from any imputa-
ton that may have been cast upon him by
such action. A report of the Senate Judiciary
committee has been made public, in which it
is stated that Judge McAllister was a faith
full officer, and that his removal was for po-
litical reasons only In this, as in many
other cases, the offensive partizanship seems
to have been on the other foot

The city of Joliet, Illinois, has experienced
tornado, with the usual manifestations
which accompany these winds. The people
of the city found refuge in their cellars and
few were hurt But the case of horse and
carriage is wonderful. When the tornado
came the horse was hitched to tree, and
the carriage was attached to the horse. AT
ter the tornado had passed the tree was
there, but the horse and carriage were gone.
Evidently that tornado adds the crime of
horse stealing to its many breaches of the

The efforts of Mr.. N. FL. Meagher, en-
ployed as counsel of the defence in the case
of the David j. Adams, has done his cause
no good by his unreasonable attempts to ex-
clude reporters from the court room during
the taking OF testimony before the Commits
sioner at Halifax. When the Commissioner
refused to order the expulsion OF the report
ers Mr.. Meagher resorted to piece of sharp
practice. He subpened the reporters as
witnesses; and, as it had been arranged that
all witnesses should be excluded from the
court room except the one under examina-
ton, he hoped thereby to carry his point.
But the newspaper men came into court
with their own counsel, and after a great
deal of unseemly wrangling were allowed to
remain. So far Mr.. Meagher has succeeded
only in making himself ridiculous.

The returns from the election are nearly in
at the office Of the Secretary of State at Au-
gusta. very few small towns and planta-
tions only are to be heard from. A COMPARE
son of the actual result with the result pre-
dicted by the Associated Press on the morn
ing after election day shows that the forecast
made by Mr.. Berry was remarkably accurate.
That forecast predicted total vote of 1871
600; the official returns show it to be about
12S,716. Of this it was predicted that the
Republican ticket would get 6S5O0; the Dem
ocratic 5000: and the Prohibition $500. The
result shows that the Republican candidate
has actually received 6S,S37 votes, only three
hundred and thirty-seven more than predict
ed; the Democratic 55,9S7, only seven hun
dred and elghty-seven more than predicted;
and the Prohibitionist3 ,S72, only five hundred
and seventy-two more than predicted Con-
sidering that this prediction was made on the
evening of election day, and that but 227
towns, less than half the number of towns in
the State, had been heard from, this accuracy
of the forecast is most satisfactory.
MI Sedgwick has reported to Secretary
Bayard and given an account of his official
actions in Mexico. OF his unofficial actions
we have had accounts, but of his perform
ance of the duties assigned him this is the
first information. Mr.. Sedgwick has found
that Cutting was held and arraigned under
the claim of extra-territorial jurisdiction
which is asserted by the Mexican penal code;
That the further claim that Cutting had cir
culated the libel on Mexican soil was only
made after Secretary Bayard had demanded
MS release; that the obnoxious editor was
tried and convicted on a combination of the
Two claims; and that finally the prisoner
was released, not because the Mexican prose-
cutor withdrew his suit, but because the
great Mr.. Bayard demanded his release.
This is just such report as Mr. Bayard, I'M
doubtedly is delighted to get. 1t speaks
well OF Bayard's power, and at the same
lime affords Mr.. Bayard pretext for forcing
the issue with Mexico which is so much de-
sired IN the South. The claim of jurisdic-
ton over certain class of offences COM
mltted without Mexican territory. which is
asserted by the Mexican penal code, Mr..
Bayard thinks 1t the duty of this country to
deny so emphatically that poor Mexico will
hasten to expunge the obnoxious statute.
He does this, not because he fears that any
other American will be arrested at present
in Mexico under this claim but that the
question may be settled for tn future. But
there is another nation with whom we have
greater difficulties than with Mexico; that

Black and white materials Of all sorts
are in favor for the present season.
Yokes of velvet are feature Of silk
dresses for autumn and winter wear.
Fruits are used more than flowers in
trimming hats and bonnets this faff.
Serge grows in favor for dresses, its
admirable wearing quality recommend
ing it..
The jerseys for this season are of finer
quality and more elaborate design than
those which have hitherto been popular.
Beads are mixed with ruchings and
plaitings in every sort Of fantastic man
ner. Rosary beads still find use in
this way.
Sleeves are very fancifully contrived
this season and the plain coat sleeve j.
quite out Of style, except for outside
Jackets and coats.
Yokes are fashionable for both younger
girls and young ladies. The yoke Is al
most always Of different fabric from the
lower part Of the corsage.
A new Partisan fashion is the scented
fan in violet wood or sandal, very much
ornamented with silver and bearing q
crest or monogram inlaid.
A muller Of marabout feathers in some
soft tint is the latest London wrap for
the shoulders; it is fitted to the should
ers somewhat after the pattern of a fur
pelerine.
The Spanish comb introduced in sum-
mer millinery is feature Of autumn bon
nets. 1t is to be found in jet, shell, cop
per, bronze and in blue, iridescent and
cut steel.
Iron is the latest material utilized for
ornamental accessories to the toilet, such
as clasps, buttons, buckles and the like,
The designs are necessarily very well de-
fined and large.

Two Of Henry Clay's Stories.

Henry Clay. who was neat penman,
was quite an enthusiast on the subject Of
plain handwriting, and was in the habit
Of telling story in point about Gin
cinnati grocery man who wanted lot of
cranberries, and thought he could get
them cheap in little Kentucky town.
To this end he wrote to customer at the
place requesting him to send 100 bushels
OF cranberries per Simmons-the name Of
his teamster. The writing was SO bad
that the party to whom the note was ad-
dressed could not make out the word
'cranberries" at all but did conclude
that his correspondent wanted 100
bushels of persimmens, which were at
once gathered and forwarded, much to
the disgust of the Cincinnati man. An
other of Mr.. Clay's stories was in regard
to an inebriated Colonel, in full regi-
mentals, who insisted on riding on the
outside Of the stage with the driver.
Presently he fell off into the mud, and
when hepicked himself up the following
colloquy ensued:
well, driver, we had quite . (hic)
turn over
mo, we haven't turned over at all I;
you only fell off, y
Being assured by the passengers that
there had been no turn over the tipsy
Colonel exclaimed

SealskiIl Facts.

In one of ssHermit'sn New York letters
to the Troy Times he says: One Of the
most natural thoughts that occurs to 3
lady who is reminded that the winter is
near,lis concerning her sealskin sacque.
1t has of course been stored during the
summer at the furrier's, who has given
it all possible care, but still there is q
consciousness that some injury may have
occurred. Hence one of the first things
now to be done is to have the precious
garment sent home, where it is examined
with the closest scrutiny. It is also
properly aired, and then placed in readi-
ness for cold weather. This delivery Of
stored goods makes busy time at the
furriers', who want to be relieved as
speedily as possibly, in order to make
room for the fall trade. ) Hundreds and
even thousands of sacqnes have already
been returned, and next week will be d
still buster time. 1t is estimated that
nearly 10, 900 sacaues have been in stor-
age at an aggregate expense of 800, 900.
The immensely Of the sealskin business
Is but little known; an idea, however,
may be formed from the fact that 300
casks of skins have just been received
from the Pacific coast. AS the casks are
large they filled twenty freight cars,
making trainsof one eighth Of d mile in
length. They viii be Immediately ship
ped to London for cleaning and coloring,
and then the largest part will be sent to
this city, which Is now the best market
in the world for everything that is ex-
pensive whether furs, pictures, horses
or minor articles Of taste.
