Kentucky Ideas.

If every workingman in the north would
read Judge Kelley's speech in Congress on
April Il last he would be in little danger of
being misled by Messrs. Watterson, Carlisle
and Breckenridge when posing as his well
wishing advisers. He will there find su-
thentic statements that will paint for him a
startling picture of the kind of working
class that comes into existence where society
is modelled according to the ideas of these
gentlemen. Here are two specimens;
"In 1880 the number of her people above
10 years of age who were reported by the
census as unable to read and write were
more than one half of the total population
A committee of the Louisville Commercial
Club reported in 1857 that so extensive was
the poverty of the majority of the people of
about one half of the counties of the state.
that they were unable to defray the expense
of maintaining county governments; and
were therefore known as 'pauper counties,
whose local expenditures had to be paid from
the treasury of the state"
Are Messrs. Waterson, Carlisle and
Brecke lridge exhibiting any concern about
this condition of things? Not the slightest.
They are moving heaven and earth to alter
your condition.
Do YOU propose to trust them?

Boston Journal.

The New York Nation has now only be-
littling words to speak of Gen. Harrison
Yet in August 1878, it said of him: 1.-The
philosophy of the political campaign seems
to be understood by Gen. Benjamin Harrison
of Indiana, who, instead of making hot un-
der the old flag has stated with uncommon
clearness and candor the obligations of the
Government with respect to its indebtedness
of all descriptions, and has done his part
toward lifting public sentiment into purer
atmosphere than the Republicans of his
State have been accustomed to breathe. =
The speech. as a whole, indicated
Mr. Harrison's fitness for the best position
in the public councils which the State of In
diana has to bestow." Gen. Harrison is GER
tainly no less man than he was ten years
ago. Ga the contrary, his speeches since
his nomination have shown him to possess
varied resources and a grasp upon public af-
fairs beyond anything he had been credi:ed
with.

The Body Found at James Street Sewer by Captain SpFouI Hs James Sullivan Of Fair HaveR-Examama.
 ton to be Made To-Day.
 Early yesterday morning Captain Sproul of
 the four-masted schooner Isaiah Hart and one of his crew were standing near the bow of their ship, which is anchored of Tomlinson's
 bridge, when they saw body floating near the James street sewer. They quickly made for it in a small boat and lowed it to the shore. Officer Shamp, who was near by, had it taken to Lewis & Maycock's establishment on Chapel street. The body was that of man thirty years old, five feet seven inches in height and 145 pounds in weight. He was dark co1lplexion- \ ed, with black hair and eyebrows and dark gray eyes. He was dressed in suit of gray ! mixed goods for pants, over which were
 drawn blue jean overalls; black diagonal vest covered with blue striped blouse, and | a brown checked coat. On his feet were 8 | pair of buttoned shoes.
 | He had 10 moustache or beard His fore ! head was high and his appearance that of 8 person of Irish descent.
 The body lay in the undertaker's morgue until late yesterday afternoon, when several | workmen from Sargent & Co.'s shops heard of the affair. They went to see the body and | immediately recognized it as that of James Sullivan, fellow laborer at SarRent's and living at 376 BIatchIey avenue, Fair Haven. He leaves wife, who is out of town on g
 visit, and six children. He was aiding in the | inventory at his shop few days ago.
 Special Officer Bradley, when speaking of the aRair, said that he thought the man fell ! of from the Chapel street bridge and foated to the place where he was found. Coroner Mix will thoroughly investigate the case, but does net state whether he suspects foul play or not. Medical Examiner White will ex- anime the body to-day.

Brick manufacturing.

To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
 Dear Sir-We notice in your issue of the 9th inst. paragraph under the heading of "North Haven' in which it is stated that Mr. N. E. Jacobs of the firm of Jacobs & Pierpont does not seem to have as good suc- cess in burning in Berlin as. when in North Haven and that he is said to have lost two kilns this season by the brick being so badly sweIIed as to be of little value.
 We, of course, do not know where your information was obtained, but it is so far from being true that we feel compelled to lay the facts before your readers.
 Since we commenced manufacturing bricks this season (some days later than the other manufacturers in this section) we have burn ed three kilns, about one million bricks. The first two kilns contained four carloads of swelled bricks, and are all sold and delivered as such, without, we are glad to say, single objection as to quality having been raised by any of our customers. The third kiln is not yet opened, but the indications are that it will contain much better bricks than it's two nredacasaora.
