We take pleasure in calling attention to the of the Middlesex Banking Company of Middletown, Conn, in another column. We consider this company one of of the safest in the state of which one can purchase bonds, for they are examined reg ularly by the bank commissioners, the same as any national or savings bank. The deben- lures they offer are very good and they are in any denomination. We would ask our readers not to forgot one important feature tn dealing with this company, trustees may in- vest in trustee funds in these bonds, priv ilege that was granted at the last session of the Connecticut legislature, and the issue is limited, no fear of an over issue of bonds.
 We would further ask our readers to send direct to the company for circulars, pam phlets, and all other particulars relating to their Debenture Bonds.

The physicians of Washington, D. O., have great many cases of the SO called grippe" to attend to, but they are nearly all sceptical of it's being the real disease, now so prevalent in. Europe, and said to be epidemic parts of New England. They agree in admitting the existence of mild form of influenza and an unusual number common colds. This, they say, is due to the mild and unreasonable weather more than anything else. Imagination is also alleged to be strongly at work.
 ssI presume," remarks Joe Howard in the New York Press, s'that murderer Kemmler has died a thousand deaths since he was first sentenced, and during the long and utterly unnecessary and profit less investigation of electric apparatus by uninformed lawyers and prejudiced ex- perts, he doubtless experienced bangs twenty times as severe as those felt by any man burned at the stake. Now it seems, according to the general term of the fifth department, that he must meet the designated doom."
 The local regulating committee issued an address, prior to the most recent elec- ton in Jackson, Miss, in which these words, significant indeed, appear "We know full well from the best authority that the better class of the negroes are willing and anxious to have nothing to do with the coming election, and intend to take no part in it, and fpEhermore, if let alone, the entire body ox fhem would decline to vote" This is ssgenteel bulldozing," with ehotguns behind it.

south. There is no demand for n federal
election law by the best people, either north
or south. Certain republican politicians
have eudeavored to create such demand in
the north by Misrepresentation and SANDER
Gus statements as to the condition of affairs
in the south, for the purpose Of justifying
them in the passage OF q law looking osten-
sibly to the purity of elections, but really
intend to secure the appointment of a
republican returning board TO falsify thereal
vote and certify the election of republican
congressman from the south, whether they
are in fact elected or not. Mr.. Reed is a
type of that class of politicians who will
not hesitate at anything to keep the Repub-
lican party in power. His speech at Pitts
burg demonstrates this.
AN UNTRUE STATEMENT.
"He says the people of the south justify
election frauds and lynching. This state
ment is absolutely untrue and no man who
had proper regard for the truth would say
such thing Even the scurvy politician
who seems to see the things he does not ought
to pl eserve an appearance of decency.
mo party necessity can justify such SIAN
ders and abuse Of people. Southern men
as a class will always be found true to every
principle Of honor. Any one who knows
them is aware of this. and such utterances
as these attributed to MIR. Reed in MS Pitts
burg speech can only have the effect of be-
littling him, They can't hurt us.n

Bills Relating to the District OF Colum
bia Taken Up.


bia Taken Up.
WASHINGTON, April 28.-In the House
this morning the legislative, executive and
judicial appropriation bill was passed
without division.
The House then went into committee of
the whole. with Mr.. Burrows of Michigan
in the chair, on bills relating to the District
of Columbia.
The pending bill was that for the estab-
lishment of Rock Greek park. On motion
of Mr.. Payson of Illinois an amendment
was adopted providing for a special assess
ment upon property directly benefited by
the location of the park, the assessment to
be made by commission to be appointed
by the President. The balance of the sum
required for the establishment of the park
is to be paid equally by the United States
and the district.
A motion to recommit failed, and the bill
was laid aside with a favorable recon-
mendatIon.
The bill appropriating 100000 for the
construction of bridge across the eastern
branch at Bennings' Road was also laid
aside with a favorable recommendation.
The committee having risen, the Rock
Creek park bill was defeated, the vote be-.
ing yeas 7S, nays 49, Mr.. Hemphill of
South Carolina voted in the negative in

SESSION OF THE SENATE.
The Florida Land Grant Question
Again Discussed.


WASHINGTON, April 2S-In the Senate
this morning in connection with the pres
entation of memorial in relation to the Mis-
sissippi river discussion sprung up and was
participated in by many senators, the point
turning on the question whether the levee
system or outlet system was correct, or
whether there should not be a combination
of the two. After the discussion had con-
tinued some time Vice President Morton
said that there was no question before the
Senate, and the business of the morning
hour was proceeded with.
Mr.. Blackburn introduced bill for the
admission of the state of Arizona. 1t was
referred.
Mr.. Call gave notice that on May II he
would address the Senate on the joint reso-
luton heretofore offered by him as to open
ing negotiations with Spain to allow Cuba
to establish republic.
The land forfeiture bill was then taken
up, the pending question being Mr.. Calls
amendment in relation to railroad lands in
Florida.
Mr.. Pasco argued against the amendment
and stated the grounds why he disagreed
with his colleague in the matter.
TWO HOURS OF TALK.
The two Florida senator's carried on a
colloquial discussion with each other for
over two hours, and then Mr.. Dolph made
statement in opposition to Mr.. Calls
amendment, as not presenting a proper
subject for legislation, which prompted Mr..
Call to restate some of the points in the
matter, which affected, he said. $50 900 acres
between Waldo and Tampa that were
claimed by two or three men, and that were
partly occupied by hard-working, honest
settlers, whose rights his amendment would
protect, and to declare that tho pending
bill was really new appropriation of the
public domain, not forfeiture. The bill
went over without action, Mr. Plumb giving
notice that he would ask the Senate to sit
it out tomorrow.
SONS OF THE REVOLUTION.
On motion of Mr.. Evarts the Senate bill
to incorporate the society of the Sons of the
American Revolution reported by him
from the library Committed was taken from
the calendar aud read.
Mr.. ingalls, questioned the necessity and
propriety. of allowing the society
to hold property in the Dis
trict of Columbia to the large amount of
S500,0o0, and also of having it incorporated
by, congress when it could be done under
the general law. He intimated that there
might be something yelled, disguised and
concealed in allowing the society to hold
such large amount of property.
MIR. Plumb made some satirical remarks
about the efforts to encourage the patriot
ism that was lying around loose in the
country, and moved to amend the bill by
providing that the privileges conferred in
the bill should be extended to the Grand
Army of the Republic. AS there was no
quorum voting on the amendment, the vote
being IL to IA, the Senate, without action
on the bill, adjourned.

KEMMLER's COMING DEATH.
An Expert in Resuscitating to be
Given a Chance.

Given Chance.
AUBURN, N. Y, April 2S.-Kemmler's
last Sunday on earth was spent in much the
same way as the previous days of his years
life-if life 1t can be called-in solitary
confinement. He never sees living soul
outside of his two guards, his spiritual ad-
wiser, and occasionally the warden's wife.
He occupies his time between meals in
studying his pictorial Bible and writing
his autograph on cards, of which he has
dashed Off a great many.
AREsUscITATING MACHINE.
DIR. Tell, a Buffalo scientist, with patent
resuscltating apparatus, has arrived, and
is guest Of Warden Durston. He is here
at the request Of the warden to see that
everything goes Off smoothly. The doctor
tried his patent on animals which were put
to death by electricity in the prison in Jan
uary last, when the machinery was first
tested. 1t failed at that time to resuscitate
the subjects, and went far toward convincing
the electrical commission that death, and
not mere suspended animation, was pro-
duced 'instantaneously. 1t is understood
that he will also try the apparatus on
Kemmler after the latter has received 1000
volts.
THE DAY OF DEATH.
Warden Durston has not yet let fall the
first inkling as to the precise day of Kemm-
ler's taking off. 1t is generally believed
that Wednesday will be the day, but cer-
tainly no later than Thursday. It is also
thought that the execution will take place
at very early hour in the morning, per-
haps before day light. But these are mere
surmises. New York city newspaper men
are here in great force. The warden Is as
unyielding as adamant in shutting out press
reporters, but some of the doctors or guards
at the execution may be prevailed upon to
talk after it is all over.
