In the last five or six years great
changes have taken place in the South.
There has been a great deal of railroad
building, by which facillties for trans.
portation have been afforded to large
extents Of territory which had previou.ly
been but poorly supplied. The iron,
coal and stee. industries have undergone
an enormous expansion, and in a number
of the cities and towns manufacturing
industries of variety of kinds have
sprung up. The condition OF affairs in
the South is gradually assimilating to
those in the North. and, as a revival in
business here has almost an intoxicating
effect, SO it is not unlikely that the sober
and conservative South will soon find
itself subjected to the exhilarating in
duence of limitless speculation.-Bos.

MARRIAGE.
Scven ways In which the Nuptial
Knot Way be Tied.
Brooklyn NJ Magaxlne.

brooklyn NJ agaxlne.
There are seven separate and distinct
ways in which the nuptial knot my be
tied, the attending expense OF the differ
ant modes varying from one dollar to
one Thousand dollars. The least expen.
isiye, and the one seldom adopted, ex-
scept in cases of elopement, is that af-
forded by the Justices office. There a
couple can be firmly united in the space
of minute for small sum. 1t is GUS
tomary for groom to dress as he may
,1lease when the marriage is to be per-
formed by . justice, and dress-suit
would be sadly out of place in the
nusty law Office. The one great advan-
tage of jusice-shop marriage is its
rsheapness.
As some people object to being mar
ried by q Justice of the Peace, preferring
the sanction of the ohuroh in addition
to that of the law. the young people may
visit parsonage instead of a Justices
Office with the same preparation. The
ceremony may be fully as informal when
performed at the minister's home, the
only difference being that not less than
three dollars, and, better still, five or
ten dollars, should be paid for the SER
vice, although there is no fixed sum
charged. The most popular ceremony
among people who do not class them
,selvcs as In s'society," and also among
many who do, is quiet home wedding,
where the bride is attired in suit OF
pIain white or a travelling dress, and the
groom in plain black or brown business
suit. where only few friends and rela-
tiyes are present. The affair ia informal,
perhaps q modest supper or lunch being
served after the ceremony is performed,
aud the entire expense to the groom
being covered by twenty dollars, or even
sess. This il the most popular wedding

A Freight Train Badly Wrecked.

ST. LOUIS Feb 25.-Rumors of a disastrous
wreck on the Wabash railroad were circulating
around the depot last evening, and every
attempt to get at the bottom Of the matter was
fnwned upon by the railroad officials. Nothing
could be learned confirming or denying the
report. The following account of the wreck has
been received: No. 23 freight train west.
bound on the Wabash road, collided with O con-
struction train near station named Bonfels,
sixteen miles west Of ST Louis, at 2 o'clock yes
terday afternoon, entirely demolishing both
engines and eight or ten fat cars, and box cars,
and tearing up the track to such an extent as TO
necessitate the building of track around it.
by lucky providence the thirty or forty labor
ers were at work on the track and away from the
train, otherwise there would have been fright
ful loss of life. No one was injured in the
slightest, the engineers and firemen of both
trains jumping for their lives before the trains
came together. 1t is one of the worst wrecks
known for long time. The tenders and cars
are piled in one mass forty feet high. 1t seems
lhe conductor and engineer of No. 20 left the
meeting point before the time on their train
order had expired.

ing telegram to the British workmen in the

to be the securing Of reduction in

sanitary condition of workshops, proper limits to
the work obtained of women and minors and
an absolute prohibition against allowing chill
dreu of either sex, under fourteen years Of age

gram suggests that the British workmen join

WASHINGTON, Feb 25.-The vast difference
between the character of the people who have
visited this city during the present season and
those who have come here during past winters is
remarked by everyone There are here now very
few people on business, and few have been here
on business since December. Most of them are
strange faces, and they are tourists AS antici-
pated, the South has given Washington such an
outpour as has never been known from that Sec
ton before, and their showing personally has
been quite as favorable as collectively and nu-
merically. They have exhibited spirit of large
liberalty and enterprise. Society has been and
is now, very much excited by the influx of
wealth and beauty.
Men who have given the subject study say the
business men are not here from different parts
of the country because business matters set
tied and disputes are at an end. There were few
business men here during the winter Of 18845,
as the Arthur administration wore away. Cues
tons of tariff, internal revenue, Immigration,
ETC., under new laws had been settled, and pros
perity was dawning. 1t is such time was
presented four years ago, when the tariff was

WASHINGTON. Feb 25.-The proposition made

Representatives to send to the Court of Claims,
court to be established by Congress, all priv
ate bills coming before Congress now. and all that
otherwise would come before Congress- is grow
ing very rapidly in popularity, and will before
long take shape. The court which is to consider
these claims will have full and final jurisdiction,
unless, possibly. the right TO appeal to the Su-
preme Court Of the United States is given.
Judgment when finally lodged against tho
United States, is to be satisfied by Congress,
which Is to not consider the merits of the case.
This would take all bills granting pensions to in
dividuals named, damages and losses from what
ever cause, defective land titles, charges and re-
instatements against and of soldiers and Sailors
and all bills of private or class nature
Two thirds of the work now assumed by Con-
gress would be taken away from it, for two
thirds of the time of members and Senators is
consumed by private bills, directly and indirect
ly. Politics. sentiment and log rolling would be
eliminated. and large amount of the abuse of
the Office of congressman would be avoided. Cold
merit would determine everything. Now the
claims and personal matters OF people for which
there is no provision in the Revised Statutes
come TO Congress, because the interested parties
believe that influence" can get them through.
It would be conducive (such o law) to greater
purity, and no mistake.

WASHINGTON, Feb 25.-Not little comment
has been made in society circles about the recep-
tion of the two Cinnamon by society ladies and
gentlemen at a swell hotel ball recently and
chronicled in these dispatches. All parties ap-
pear to have repented, and the trouble seems to
have grown out of a misapprehension. The first
ladies to refuse presentation to the Celestials,
it is stated, were Southern and Western, and
bore strong prejudice against the nationality.
After these ladies refused to meet the Cinnamon,
it became known about the ballroom, and the
Washington ladies followed suit Hence the two
guests were not cordially received, and, as
one lady put it, "did not have good time"
A member of the Chinese legation, speaking Of
the popularity of their people in Washington
circles, said to-day that they were overwhelmed
with invitations to dinner, dancing, theater and
other parties, from the best families in Wash
ington and that they were much gratifed by il.

their nationality among the residents here.

LONDON, Feb. 25.-The reports that the Par

Mr. Shaw Lefevre. x-Postmaster- general, in

is not Mr.. Gladstones scheme.
The Associated Chambers of Commerce, which
have been in session here for the past three
daye. to day adopted, by a unanimous vote, a
resolution declaring that the grant of homo
rule to Ireland would prove disastrous to the
trade Of both Ireland and Great Britain. This

Pittsburg ladies, grew, as intimated,
from preiudiced guests present The two Chi
namen are very popular in the best society here.
In fact, as the story goes, there is strong pref
udice in their favor. The mistake their host
esses made was in not announcing who their
guests would be before they appeared, and ask
ing permission of the ladies who conduct the en-
tertainments to present their guests. In other
words, they escaped the very necessary formali-
ties.
There has been s. great change, however, in So
ciety circles here IN one respect within the past
