As MIR. CARNEGIE says he thinks it a
disgrace to die rich, he had better pay
the government the amount of the fine
imposed upon him for making unsound
armor plates, of which he was relieved
by special order of the President. He
should be especially glad to do so now,
as the resignation of Congressman Cum
mings, who had the matter in charge,
will probably put stop to the further
investigation of his case, and thereby
affords him a grand opportunity for
showing his gratitude.

A SCHOONER CUT In To.-The Old

A SCHOONER Cur IN To.-The Old
Bay Line steamer Georgia, Captain
Amy, which sailed from Baltimore
Thursday night for Norfolk, when off
Thomas's Point, in the bay, cut down
the schooner Eva T. Barnes, which sank
immediately. The collision occurred
in dense fog, which made it impossible
for the lookout to see twenty yards.
Without warning the steamer crashed
into the schooner and cut her in two.
There were five men aboard the
schooner, all of whom were saved. The
owner and captain, George G. Kershaw,
and VIM. Simon. a passenger, climbed
into the rigging, and as this became
tangled on the bow of the Georgia, they
were able to scramble aboard the
steamer. The other three men cut
loose the yawl, and when the Georgia
stopped they were taken aboard. Their
names are John Gross, James Thomas
and Alexander Brown, all colored, OF
Maryland. When the collision occur
red there was intense excitement among
the passengers, which was not allayed
until they were assured that the Geor.
gia was unframed. The scraping of the
paint from her bow and the breaking of
a portion of her forward rail were
the only injuries she sustained.

THERE is hardly a mugwump demo
cratic newspaper that denounced the
German tariff bill, and that attributed
the recent democratic defeat to that
bill, that doesn't no,U, say it is the best
tariff bill the country has had since
1861. The President was right in not
vetoing it, though he did say it was
formulated "perfdy and dishonor."
It's benefits are already apparent; they
will be more so after the first of Janu-
nry, when all its provisions will be-
come operative.

A BABE SEIZED BY A WILD HOG.

A BABE SEIZED BY A WILD HOG. -
At Sacred Heart, a hamlet few miles
from Guthrie, o. T., Mrs. Gabolies's
fourteen-months.old baby was almost
eaten up by wild hog few days ago.
The woman had laid the child on a
blanket near where she was washing.
The hog refused to give up its prey,
and gave battle when Mrs. Gabolies en-
deavored to rescue the child. The hog
grabbed the bleeding, crying babe in
its mouth and started for the woods.
In her wild endeavors to rescue her
babe, Mrs. Gabolies was herself terribly
injured, her flesh being torn from her
body in several places. Finally, how
ever, she succeeded in grabbing the
child and escaping. The baby is dead.

JUDGING from the way some OF the
"reform" newspapers of New York are
now talking, the recent reform" victory
in that city was by no means as con-
ducive to reform as unsophistlcated
people, not only there, but elsewhere,
had been led to believe. There are
rascals in all parties, and where every
man has the right to vote, as there are
more people without, than with mate
rial interest in the general welfare,
their methods are such that they al
ways manage to reap the benefits OF
elections, no matter which party may
win. Retrenchment and reform are
incompatible with unrestricted suffrage.
