Remember This.

When Bourke Cochran, in his re-
cent great speech 10 New York, ut
tered the following sentence, he ut
tered a sentence which should be
posted over the door of every honest
laboring maa, whether Republican
or Democrat, in this country: ~
can take $40 gold piece and defy
all the power Of all the governments
of this earth to take cents value
from it. I can 60 to the uttermost
ends Of OF the earth and wherever |
present it, its value will be unques-
toned, unchallenged. That g Id
dollar the honest masses of this
country, without distinction Of party
divisions, demand shall DE paid the
laborer when he earns it, and no
power on earth shall cheat him out
of the sweat of his BROW

s,r. srran,s Attack on Properly

Mr. Bryan, speaking Of the burn
ing Of Burns factory at Worcester,
Mass. which vas evidently set on
fire by some Of Mr.. Bryan's support
ers, says "no political reason can ex-
cuse an attack on person or proper
ty." And yet Mr.. Bryan is making
his whole campaign by attacking
the property, not only of the rich,
but of the poor. In order to secure
the presidency for himself, he would
destroy By fully hall the property OF
the wealthy, the savings of the poor,
the little income of widows and or
phans, the wages of labor.-Louis

For that mother loved him still.

When Garriek once complained to
Sir Joshua Reynolds, of the daily
sarcasm with which Foote annoyed
him, Sir Joshua answered, that Foote
IN SO doing,gave the strongest proofs
possible of sensibly feeling his own
inferiority as it was always the les

malignant and abusive.

''Like lily dropping,
Bowed her head and died"
FoorE AND GEORGE FAULKNER. !.

FooTE AND GEORGE FAULKNER.
When Foote was acting in Dpblin
he introduced into one of his pieces,
called the Orator" the character Of
George Faulkner, the celebrated
printer, whose manner and dress he
so closely inflated, that the poor
fellow could not appear in public
without mourning the SCOTS and jeers
of the very boys in the streets. En-
ragged at the ridicule thus brought
upon him, Faulkner one evening
treated to the seat OF the gods all
the devils of the printing Office for
the express purpose Of their Kissing
and hooting Foote of the stage.
Faux placed himself in the pit
to enjoy the actors degradation ;
but when the Objectionable scene
came on, the unfortunate printer was
exceedingly chagrined 10 find that.
so far from a groan or a hiss, his gal
lery friends partcok OF the comical
laugh. The next morning he ar
raigned his inky conclave, inyeighed
against them for having neglected
his injunction, and on demanding
the reason for their treachery, was
lascerated ten times deeper by the
simplicity Of their answer. "Arrah,
master, said the Spokesman, "do
not be after tipping us your blarney;
do you think we did not know you 7
Sure, twas your own sweet self that
was on The stage, and shower light
upon US If we go to tie playhouse to
hiss our worthy master.v
Failing in this experiment, Faux
ner commenced an action against
Foote, and got verdict OF damages
TO the amount of three hundred
pounds. This drove Fcote back
again to England, where he resumed
his mimicry, ard humorouslg took
off the lawyers on his trial, and the
| Judge who had condemned him.

THE ORIGINAL BLAcK-nYED SUSAN.

THE ORIGINAL BLACK-EYED SUSAN.
= Gay wrotsrthe well-known ballad,
called 7'Bfack Eyed Susan," upon
Mrs. Montfofd, celebrated actress,
Contemporary with Cibber. After
her retirement from the stage, love
and ingratitude of a bosom friend
deprived her of her reason, and she
was placed in receptacle for luna
tics. One day during lucid inter
val, she asked her attendant what
play was to be performed thst even
ing, and was told that it was Ham
let. In this tragedy, whilst on the
stage, she had ever been received
with rapture in Ophelia. The recol-
lection struck her, and with that
cunning which is often allied to in
sanity, she eluded the care of her
keepers and got to the theatre where
she concealed herself under the scene
which Opbelia enters in her insane
state. She then pushed on the stage
before the lady who had performed
the previous part of the character
could come on, and exhibited more
perfect representation of madness
than the utmost exertions Of mimic
art could effect. She was, in truth,
Ophelia herself, TO the anazement
of the performers, and the astonish-
ment Of the audience. Nature BAY.
ing made this last effort, her vital
powers failed her. On going off she
exclaimed, at is all over" She
was Immediately conveyed back to

few days after,-

Another Step in the Northern Pa
Cific Land Grant Con-
trOVRrSv.

Washington, D. c., Nov. 2-Another
step in a longstanding controversy has
been taken by the secretary of the inte-
rior in declining to approve the designa-
ton of the city of Duluth, Mimi, as the
eastern terminus, or initial point of the
Northern Pacific railroad grant. The
department holds that the terminals had
been at right angles to the last section
of the road and directs that new ter
minal be esta blished as the new Eastern
terminus of the road accordingly.
Under the construction of the depart
ment the lines of both the Northern Pa
cifc and Lake Superior & Mississippi
roads are the same between Thomson
and Dutulh. A line of the same char
acter as a terminal line should be estab-
lished upon the Lake Superior & Missis-
sippi road at Thomson. Between the
line thus established and the Eastern
terminus of the Northern Pacific grant,
when established as now directed, the
Northern Pacific company will not be
entitled to indemnity for lands to which
the other company may have been en-
titled under its grant. The intention of
Congress, it is stated, was evidently to
provide against making a double grant
where two land grants were found to be
upon the same general line.

Berlin, Nov. 2.-The Reichsanzeiger
this afternoon replies to Prince Bis
marck's organ, the Hamburg Nachrich-
ten, on the latest phase of the DISPUTE
concerning the disclosure of the Russian
German treaty of 1SS490, saying:
The question of the period of time re-
quired for secret diplomatic occurrences
to lose the character of state secrets can
only be decided by the statesmen in Of
flee by virtue of their responsibility and
special knowledge of the political situa-
ton. Any deviation from this principle
would expose the country's foreign policy
to surprises and perturbations and there
by endanger interests of state. If Ger
many gave an unconditional promise to
keep secret the fact as we'll as the pur-
port Of the negotiations with Russia be-
fore 1890 the obliga tion is still binding
upon all cognizant of the matter and this
consideration also preciudes the POSSIBLE
ity of discussing the essential points Of

Simla, Oct. 2S.-The famine outlook in

About thirty takkhs of rupees have al

Spanish Comm anderS
Guessing.

Havana. Nov. 2-The report that An
tonic Maceo crossed the military line
after attacking Artimesa and being re-

official account is again denied and 1T is
stated that the insurgents upon that oc-
casion acted without unison, dlsobeyed
orders made no attack upon the torts
and were unable to capture the Spanish
intrenchments
the affair." Maceo, the day after bonn
harding Artimesa. in conversation with
the manager of a farm near Mangas,
Pinar del Rio, deplored the loss ms
forces had sustained and admitted II
was no easy matter to cross the MILITARY
line. The Spanish forces are slowly oc-
cuDying the position which Maceo may
have intended to use and he is said to be
resting in order to care for his wounded.
There are two versions Of the where
abouts of Maceo. One Of them has 1t
that Maceo and Rubia are in the noun
tains on the limits of Cabanas and Caya-
iabos. which constitute a part of the
Sierra del Rosa Rio, and another report
has il that he is in the Rangel noun
tains of the Sierra south of San CrlstO-

him.
The Spanish troops are continuing
