A Few Facts,

III 1873 farm products were lower
than ever before since the civil war, and
the greenbackers" were arguing that
the preparation for resumption OH Jan.
l, 1879, had produced the hard times,
and their advocates tried to posptone
the date for resumption. But rcsump-
tion came Jan. l, 1870, and No. 3 cash
wheat sold at s15s; by May it was up
to 81. 01A, and by December. 1879, it
was up to $1.3s1a. Corn was 2936 in
January, 1879, but in December, 1879,
it was 4314.
Such facts need to be borne in mind
at this time, when so many false the.
cries are afoat

Notice to the Public,

The health officer of the city of Mad
ison has been instructed by the city coun-
cll to enforce all ordinances relating to
the cleanliness Of the city. Our observ-
ing ancestors formulated the following
truism: Cleanliness Is next to godli.
ness; but the modern philosopher with
his greater knowledge OF the laws
of hygien would 30 far deity
cleanliness as to paraphrase the above
quotation to read: "Cleanliness is god
liness"; therefore I call the attention OF
each householder and each individual to
make q special effort to clean their
premises.
Observe: All manure piles, garbage
heaps, vaults and cess-pools must be
cleaned. An inspector will visit every
part Of the city and report all delinquen-
cies in this matter. Notice will be
served on all property owners giving q
reasonable time to comply with the law
after which the inspector will again 20
over the city and report to the city mar
shall any failure to comply with above
notice. The city will then assume
charge and all expense will be assessed
to the property.

LITERATURE IN TRANSLATION.
This the Theme OF "a Finished Lee
ture by Professor Carroll.

The last of a series of lectures to be-
given by the professors of Richmond Col
lege was delivered last night by Professor
Carroll, of the Chair OF Greek.
After defending classical instruction
from the charge made by an English
scholar that through it the student failed
20 reach classical literature, the lecturer
proceeded with his theme. the study OF
classical literature In translation. with
special reference to the man Of liberal
culture He first showed that knowl-
edge Of the antique classics was an es-
sential part of liberal education, by en-
phasizing Cd the value OF the subject mat
ter of antique literature; (9 the literary
excellence of its masterpieces; 90 the spi-
rit of Hellenism, and O the inse9a-
rable unity of antiquity with modern
life. as seen especially in our own ntera-
ture.
After a brief treatment of the made
auacy of translations, being at best vague
pictures of the original masterpieces,
Professor Carroll showed that yet mrch
could be conyeyed-thought, sentiment,
narrative, various qualities Of style. and
above all, the spiritual element in litera-
ture. He then illustrated his subject by
special reference to Homer, showing
why he was worthy of study, discussing
current translations, pointing out the ele-
ments of supremest interest in the Had
and Odyssy, and read some selections,
especially the story of Hectors farewell
To his wife Andromache. lie closed
with a tribute TO Valentines noble mas
terpiece. the Andromache.
The lecture was of great merit.

FOR ARBITRATION.
Plan Having iu View a Permanent ln-
teFDational Court
BAR ASSOCIATIONS COOPERATE
That of the State of Virginia In
cluded Among Those Which Have
Expressed Commendation of the
Project.


NEW YORK, March GA plan pro-
viding for a permanent international court
of arbitration for the settlement
NJ disputes between civilized nations,
I'm general. and between the Unteo
States and Great Britain in particular
was considered to-day by the Committee
on International Arbitration Of the New
York State Bar Association. The plan
was not given out for publication. be-
cause It is not yet considered mature IN
all of its details. 1t Is the OBJECT Oh
the committee to obtain the concurrence
and cooperation in the final formation
OF this plan of all the bar associations
OF this country. as well as Great bri-
tain. Canada, and Australia.
The meeting was held at the Office OF
Edward G.. Whitaker, No. 20 Broadway
president OF the association. Core
spondence had already been opened with
the various bar associations OF tn<
country. and favorable replies wers
read to-day from those of Maine, west
Virginia, Wisconsin, New Mexico, Geor-
gia. New Hampshire, Connecticut MIS-
souri, the District Of Columbia, Iowa.
.irginia, and Michigan.
The meeting went into executive ses-
sion. and the plan so far as 1t mas at
present proceeded was presented TO the
committee by the subcommittee ap-
no,nted some time ago TO consider the
matter.
Before the formal adoption Of the plan
II will be submitted TO President CleVe-
land I'm a memorial from the association
but this will not be done until the arpl-
tration committees of the State Bar AS
sociations of the country have passed
on It.
President Whitaker, when asked what
were the general features OF the plan
proposed. said:
.sit nroyides FOR the naming by the
limited States Government and Great
Britain of some OF their highest judicial
officers who shall constitute a court for
tho adjudication of all diplomatic diiii-
culties that shall arise between the two
nations. This court Is to be always m
session in a legal sense-that is, II VIII be
ready TO meet whenever called upon ny
the Joint action of the two governments.
"The American members of the court
are TO be taken from the Federal judi
ciary. The English will, of course, make
their Chancellor a member. II ts possible
that we may recommend that Germany
and France be represented. 1hat VIII
depend to some extent on the attltude
of these countries, and also of Great
Britain. ,.
"The object will be primarily to settle
the disputes between the two countries,
but we anticipate that the advantages OF
the court will become so obvious to other
nations that they will also seek its
benefits, and submit their disputes TO us
decisions, rather than resort to war.

ARREST OF RIOTERS.
Attack on an Ex-Priest--Four Men
Shot.

SCRANTON, PA, March 6.--County-
Detective Leyshon and posse sworn in
by Sheriff Clements went TO Dunmore
early this morning and arrested John
Welsh, John Lynch, Peter O'Hara, and
Joseph Peyton, in connection with the
riot there on Monday, when 500 men and
boys made an attack on the ex-priest,
Ruthven. I'm which four men were shot
One of the injured, William Mink, Is
dying at the Lackawsnna Hospital. The
prisoners were taken from their beds
by the officers, and the arrests were
made at such an early hour that but
few persons were aware OF the affair
The warrants were sworn out by David
G. Phillips, one Of Ruthyen's body
guard. at the instance OF Coroner
Longstreet and District-Attorney Jones.
The prisoners were lodged in the county
Jail.
The arrests were made with great cau-
tion. as II was believed that trouble
would occur IL the movement should
become known. Mink is so near death
that the hospital physicians and DIR.
Iongstreet do not think he can recognize
any of the men as those who fired the re-
volvers at Ruthyen and his guard, but
the effort will be made to-day. The
trouble has caused bitter feeling among
Catholics and Protestants in Dunmore.
