BRADY'S BOOK.

General Brady, OF Star Route notoriety
is going to write book. He says oft: II
propose o place several alleged statesmen
and others in the public pillory in order
that their fellow citizens may see them in
their true light. Some people posing be-
fore the public as moral saints, with a
holier-t -than.thou cast OF countenance, !
shaI impale upon the points OF their own
corruption. shall embellish my book
with fac-simile autograph letters and
memoranda which will speak for them.
selves.
He promises that the book will uncover
Ihe true inwardness OF that disgraceful
episode in Republican administration, and
will also set forth the means by which the
electoral vote OF Florida was captured by
Hayes in 1876. General Brady has been
inpelled to do this, he says, because he
thirks that certain hypocrites who carry
high heads in the Republican organization
should be exposed for the general good.
The General was on the inside OF one OF
the most corrupt rings that ever had it's
birth under Republican rule, and is there
lore especially fitted for the work he will
engage in. 1t will be mighty interesting
reading for some of his old pals who
turned against him and helped impale him
'upon the points OF his own corruption. !"

A KICK FROM NATIONAL BANKS.
They Want tho Government to Permit
Them to Retain Their Per Cents.

They Want the Government to Permi,
Them to Retain Their Per Cents.
WAsHlNaroN, September %. - Inquiry
made at the Treasury Department to-day
in regard to the published statement that
National banks are being greatly disturbed
by the calling IN of the 3 per cent. bonds
which form the basis of their circulation,
it was learned that several OF these institu.
tions have given notice OF their withdrawal
and that others were trying to have their
called bonds retained as the basis for their
circulation, prcferring to forego the interest
altogether rather than risk ruin with the
and ~ per cents. at the present premium.
It always has been held by the Treasury
Department that when bonds cease to bear
interest they become unavailable as u
basis for National bank circulation. This
ruling, however, has lately been contested
by some OF the banks and the question re-
ferred to the Attorney General for his
opinion. Until this decision is rendered
the department must OF course, adhere to
it's course. In many cases, however, banks
whose bonds have been called are deferring
their replacement expecting apparently
the decision OF the attorney will permit
these bonds to remain. In the meantime
the Comptroller Of the Currency, the
Treasurer and Register are 40 busily en-.
gagged with replacements and Withdrawals
that it is not considered likely that the
department will be very exacting with
banks that have failed TO surrender their
called bonds.
A letter was received to day from q leading
financier OF New York, suggesting that as
an exchange OF bonds will lock up good
deal OF money at this time, when it is in
great need in the moving of crops, ETC., it
would not be we'll for the Government to
force the banks beyond a reasonable de-
gree OF diligence in substituting other bonds
for tho called 3-per-cents. 1t isunderstood
that the question will be left open until the
return OF Attorney General Garland, who
Is expected back about the first Of the
month.

LONDON NOTES.

LONDON, September 23.-A committee
OF the Cabinet consisting OF Lord Sails.
bury, Lord Randolph Churchill, Sir Michael
Hicks Beach, Mr.. Matthews and Mr..
Smith, discussed the Irish question two
hours. Unless some unforeseen necessity
arises the Cabinet will not meet again for
several weeks. Sir Hicks-Beach will start
for Ireland early next week.
Gladstone will receive the Irish deputa.
tion at Hawardsn, October 4.
Nubar Pasha, specially summoned to
London, had conference with Lord Sails
bury to effect settlement OF the Egyptian
question which is becoming more pressing
en- account OF the renewal OF the crisis in
eastern Europe. The basis OF the settle
ment will probably be continuation dc
fucto OF the British protectorate over
Egypt by a normal British army Of occu-
patton, or even draft upon British
troops in Egypt, the order to be provis;,
ionajly. maintained by specially raised
Egypt an troops with British officers,
British personal obligations towards
Turkey to be upheld in accordance with
the Cyprus treaty OF alliance.

FIGURES THAT TALK.

In Arth~le 3,5O7 OF Section l, 1852, the fol-
lowing charge is made against President
Cleveland:
"His acts have belied his profession, and
instead of being the apostle OF reform, he
has been the champion OF the Democratic
system of spoils and plunder. He prom
ised economy, but has been guilty OF pronl'
gate extravaganza.
When the late lamsnted Territorial he
ublican Convention adopted that plank
in their gigantic and absurd platform, it is
safe to say there were not hall dozen
members who knew what they were vot-
Mg for. They event it blind, and
like habcs, swallowed everything Sanders
put in sheir mouths. Had the platform
declared Chat tho moon is made OF green
cheese and that the Democratic admins

cheese market aid thus ruin the dairy IN

that convention who would have gu'peo

Tonight the Knights divided the time
between watching the trades display and

on magnificent scale but its effect was
somewhat marred by the general illumina-

4 Man Found Unconscious and Nearly
Dead In = Railway Car.
LONDON, September 24.-A sensation has
been produced by the announcement OF the
discovery OF mysterious tragedy in q
railway car compartment. The discovery
was made last evening, but was not made
public until to-day. Whe,, the 6 o'clock
train from the city on the underground
railway arrived at Queensiord station last
evening, a newsboy noticed blood dripping
from the compartment Of a tirst-class car
riage. He raised an alarm, and a gentle
man was found lying on the floor OF the
compartment. He was unconscious and
blood was flowing freely from his head.
There was found on his forehead
DEEP WOUND FOUR INCHES LONG.
This evidently had been made with an in
strument sharp and heavy. The scalp was
not only cut clear through, but the skull
was crushed in and the brains we're pro-
truding. On his person were found a gold
watch and chain and some fine rings, none
OF which had been disturbed, but very lit
tie money. The man was at once con.
neyed to a hospital. He is still uncon-
scious and his condition is precarious. It
has ben learned his name is Moritz A.
Fisher and that he is the head OF the house
of NJ. A. Fisher 4 Co.. Foreign Agents, OF
Cater Lane, f. G.. The police, as yet, are
unable to gain clue as to the cause OF the
murderuus attack or to identity his ass IL
