 You know Pennsylvania Is never with out political interest and political excite ment. No sooner does the smoke of one battle clear away then another occurs, and so on 1t goes, through. hot and cold weather. The people are on top, hawever, and we may have a brief surcease.
 "You understand, Pennsylvania has sev- eral political parties. One Is the Repub- lican party. under the leadership of Sem ator Quay; another a semi-religious CD political party, under the leadership of a Sunday school man, who, 1t Is alleged, has been known to publish advertisements of his business on hymn books He is the boss buffer of the political arena, and a recent offer of a vast sum of money for certain public franchises, which he knew to be unpurchasable, was In exact keep ing with a career of inconsistent political hypocricy Ingratitude is one of the most damnable traits of the human character, and those who remember that Mat. Quay named the postmaster general In the Har- rison administration know exactly how to measure some public men who pose as immaculates." ,r
 In view of the characteristic earnestness of General Mylin in discussing matters political he was asked about the weather.
 By the way" said he, 'I am delightful ly surprised at the cooling atmosphere you have here in Birmingham. I came down south on business, by force of cir sumstances, from my home in Pennsylna- mia, where for a week past I have been compelled to sleep on my front portico on account of the intense heat. Ten days ago was in New York city. when people and horses were falling dead around me; and today, July 10, I am enjoying the in- vigorating life-giving atmosphere of Bir- mingham. You people do not appreciate this great blessing, I fear"
