The Ordnance Contracts Scandal.

LONDON. Aug. THE Sir William Armstrong
Arms Manufacturing Company is resorting to
extreme measures to estop corruption of govern
ment officials to secure contracts for the supply
of ordnance. Recently the company applied to
the Queens Bench for an injunction to restrain
Captain Armil from continuing to publish in the
Admiralty and Horse Guards Gazette, as he has
been doing every week, fresh allegations of cor.
ruption of the ordnance officials by the Arm
ssrongs, pending the result of the cotton for
libel brought by the company against the Cap
tain for his original allegation of corruption
Ia the succeeding exposures Captain Arsnil has
described in detail alleged cases of the grossest
character charging several distinguished per-
sonages with corruption and conspiracy, with
having formed among themselves ring for sys-
tematic robbery of the government. The Court
of Queens Bench has just rendered
its decision upon the petition for
injunction. The court refused to grant the in
junction, and bases the refusal upon the ground
that the alleged lbels fall within the class of
privileged communications" eff these libels
are true,' says the court, 'it Is of the utmost
Importance that the country should be made
aware of the knowledge they convey Captain
Armils object, it is believed, is to force the gov
eminent to grant royal commission of inquiry
into his charges.

Savage Riot at Belfast Between Orangemen
and Catholic Navvies.
BELFAST, Aug IA riot took place this morn
ing between the Orangemen employed in the
Queens Island ship-yard and the Catholic nav
vies employed by the harbor commissioners.
The fighting was very severe for time, and re-
sembled in character that which occurred be-
tween the same elements on the 4th of June,
when the Orangemen, greatly outnumbering the
navVies, overpowered and beat them, and drove
them into the water. where one was drowned.
number of men on both sides were so badly in
iured in to-days fighting that they had TO be re-
moved to hospitals.
Sir Michael Hicks Beach, Chief Secretary for
Ireland, has written to Mayor Harland of Bel
fast, saying that the Lord-justices are seriously
concerned about the condition of affairs
in Belfast, and consider it imperative
that the most energetic measures be
taken to terminate the disorders which
are bringing discredit and disgrace
upon the town." The Inspector-general Of the
Irish constabulary has been ordered to proceed
to Belfast as promptly as possible A large
meeting or the magistracy was held to-day. II
appointed an executive committee to take charge
of the town. and to assign the troops and police
to varions points. All the taverns in the city
have been ordered to be closed at o'clock this
evening, and to remain closed until Monday
morning
Tonight the conflicts were resumed. The
fighting was the most desperate that has taken
place during the recent troubles. The mob was
Infatuated and fought with savage energy. Fifty
persons were injured, some of them, it is
thought fatally. Terrible struggles occurred on
the Shankhill road. The police quartered in
McKenna's Tavern, on the Old Lodge road, were
attacked by the mob with stones and revolvers
and were compelled to fire from the windows OF
the beleaguered house. During this attack
eighteen persons were injured, and were subse
quently taken to hospitals. youth named
jackson is said to be dying from his injuries

The petals of the buttercup have, as
we'll known, peculiar varnish-like luS-
tire. The cause of this has been inves-
tigated by DR.. Mobious, who attributes
1t to highly refractive yellow oil exist
ing in the epidermal cells, increased by
the fact that the layer of cells of the
mesophyl is densely filled with minute
starch grains.
The Opera at Paris is now lighted
throughout by means of the electric
light, Offices, cellars and lofts not ex-
Guided. Electric lamps are also carried
by the Waterman. There are 6T26 in
candescent lamps, which take the place
of 1870 gas burners. 1t may be said
that there is a risk to depend entirely on
electric illumination, and that serious
accidents might arise if the lights failed.
But the administration of the Opera
have been experimenting on a large
scale for months, and when it was found
that there was no breakdown in the
lamps of the staircase, foyer and house,
or in those of the hall, it was wise to
conclude that with reasonable care cleo
trio illumination is not only brilliant but
certain.
The former home of Governor Lee is
called Richland. 1t is like all the eS-
tates in the county-a two-Story frame
house, large lawn and several hundred
acres of anything but rich land. Here
the governors ancestors have lived for
hundreds of years. Of course the Lees
can trace their descent to titled English
men; at least, all books of heraldry make
it out so. AT distance of few miles
is Somerset, the home of the Moncure
family. The present Mrs. Moncure is a
granddaughter of the famous Lady
Spotswood, whose portrait hangs in the
Capitol at Richmond. This family has
lived in Stafford County for nearly two
hundred years. All its deceased mem
bers are buried in the graveyard at
Aqua Church, and tablet near the
pulpit contains the rather royal inscrip-
ton, Sacred to the memory of the
race of Moncure." There are about
$50 members OF the family in the county.
The women, taken all in all, are the
most beautiful the writer has ever seen
within the same area. They seem to
have inherited in a remarkable degree
the queenly beauty Of Lady Spotswood,
and some Of them bear a close reSem-
Iblance to her portraits.

Stockings and slippers of the color of
the Swedish glove are used as substi-
tutes for black stockings and slippers,
and they are one shade less becoming
than baseball shoes, and make the foot
look larger. They are pleasantly cool,
however, as it is not necessary to wear
a Llsle thread stockings under them.
Standing collars are made of folds of
silk, muslin or of point d'esprit, and
have ribbon onl y fourth of an inch
wide passed through them and tied in
tiny bows in front The sleeves that 90
with these collars have two pufS of the
material of the collar drawn up by
passing the ribbon through them and
tying bows on the inside seam. The
collars just described have gimpes at
tached, and the pufs give the effect of
under sleeves.
The Russian bang and the basket coil
are the fashionable features of hair
dressing for young women, and are also
adopted by those who are no longer
young. The Russian bang curves or is
pointed in the middle, and is very short
on the temples, It is also very light,
that is, much less hair is cut for it than
for the Langtry bang, and it is short,
showing much more of the forehead
than was formerly done.
White null and surah chemisettes
have standing collar of folds that fast
ems behind, and the from t is pressed in
lengthwise pleats turned toward the
middle from each side. Pique chemi-
settes for travelling dresses have cords
laced across the front between buttons.
Very fine French percale chemisettes
have the collar and tiny throat DOW Or
namented with draw-work, and there
are white linen sets similarly made with
pink, blue, or black borders attached by
clearinghouse Or ladder stitching.
For comfortable summer wear there is
nothing better than the thin silks, such
as tricotine with ribbed surface, yet
nearly transparent, or else the familiar
toulards, silk grapes, and India silks.
The Louisine silks are sometimes chosen
for useful dresses, but are seldom OF jet
black. The striped India silks are in
great favor with pencilled lines of white,
and the most popular foulardS also have
stripes or else hieroglyphics oc palms in
all-over patterns, and also as border
near one selvage.

such Il set of stiff-necked nullifiers

have shown themselves to be.
Recent events have proven to us that

monstrosity' whose head is reared in these
valleys in mockery OF the institutions OF a
free country-and whose agents these
legislators are-and the proper represen-

ployed, will undoubtedly give to us just
the legislation suited to the task on hand.

WE sHoU Id BE PREPARED.

If it had been an understood thing all
around that during the sixty days ses-
sion (now happily drawing to a close) OF
the Legislative Assembly that that body
should pass only such measures as would
be sure to fall beneath the Governors
veto, and to the end should persist in
such brazen-faced defiance OF the law as
has characterized all former Mormon As
semblies, thus leaving to Congress no
apparent alternative but to step in and
give to this Territory such legislation as
the circumstances would indicate it most
stands in need OF, the programme could
not have been more faithfully carried out
in every respect.
Yesterday the Governor showed his
appreciation OF the labor5 OF the Legs-
lature by vetcing eight bills OF more or
less vicious character. 1t is to be hoped
that his stock OF vetoes will not run out
until he has, in similar manner, paid
| his respects to all the measures that may
be laid before him-that is, unless he is

while still standing firm in the determi-
nation to veto all bills which have for
their object the placing OF Territorial
funds in the hands OF irresponsible mem

any such bills will be considered at this
session.
Three days more and this herd of

THE CASE OF MIR. BROW.

The Park City Record has learned that
charges of serious nature have been
preferred against Mr.. w. G. Brow, the
newly appointed Postmaster for this city,
and that q special agent OF the Postoflice
Department has been investigating the
matter with Il view to reporting thereon.
The Record also states that for some time
past the Salt Lake papers have been cog
nizant of all the facts in the case, "but
for some reason have kept quiet"
All of which is true. Circumstances
over which the present editorial manage
ment of the DEMOCRAT had no control at
the time, prevented an early publication
of all the facts in the disgraceful affair,
and as weeks rolled on without mention
OF the same being made in any OF
the other local papers, it was
deemed best to let the matter drop, since
in so doing the DEMOCRAT would at least
avoid the unjust imputation, certain to be
cast upon it, of indulging in spite-work
by publishing, weeks after it happened,
an account OF something which should
have found its way into print at the very
| time OF its occurrence, ii at all. Herein
will be found "the reason" for the DEMO
Gratis silence upon this subject, and
which to the Park Record and other
journals may have seemed inexplicable
The Record says it is informed that
soon after his appointment, Mr.. Brow
event on tear, and wound it up with Il
terrific domestic rumpus." Substantially
that is the understanding which the DEM
ocRAr has OF the affair, and the facts ir
proof are sworn to by men whose reputa
ton for truth and veracity will not bt
questioned in the community. Their ties
timony shows that Mr.. Brow, since hi
appointment to the office OF Postmaste
OF this city, has been guilty OF conduc
3 which, to say the least that can be sait
r OF it, is most unbecoming in HUSBAND
: and respected member OF society, I
i say nothing OF q Government official.
+, At this late day the DEMOCRAT does no
$ care to enter into any details OF the dis
graceful affair. The matter has bee
s very fully investigated by special ager
t OF the Postoflice Department, and eve
y President Cleveland himself has writer
: TO certain gentlemen here, requestin
: that Il full and true statement OF the cas-
@ be forwarded for his consideration. Unde
s the circumstances, it looks as though Nj
IL Brow would not be favored with his con
mission as Postmaster, and we are ce
tain that he ought not to be.
