BROS., family, on the road, st the mate, at sea, au.l 7 Wiiihitigton- (Pram our regular osiraapssasst. ) !Mm - ii Wahhinoton, 1. C, July asth, 1887. Prcaideftt and Mra. Cleveland, have re turned from their pleaaant tour of north ern New York, looking and feeling all the lirttcr for the delightful outing and cordial reception throughout the trip, but more especially, at the bovhood home uf the President, where hl old friend and neigh bors eagerly thronged about him, glad to honor the man, w ho had rUe n, tike a me teor, from the humblest to the proudest poaltlnn on earth, and who greeted each and alt with a good word and a kindly mile of recognition. At the White Uouac.lt is not yet known what other summer plans the Prettder.t hat arranged only the Atlanta visit hi October having been positively dechufd upon -but, 1 do not think he can . refuse assent to the importunities of St. Louis, Louisville, and other wctem ottlea. Souk alarm was felt at the White House he other day at the discovery that the laths and rafters. In the southern portico were decayed, and It wa thought that the mansion was In danger of a collapse, but an examination has dispelled alt fear, aa only slight repairs will be necessary to stay the defacing hand of time. 1 learn that the Administration regards with the liveliest satisfaction the delibera tions and nominations, of tbe Ohio Demo crats, and, that the President feci that his course has been substantially endorsed. The receipts of the Post Office Depart ment for the third quarter of the last fis cal year were t ,ti p; ; expenditures, f 13.a73.e08 ; deficiency $3dopo? 1 ; but the latter will per hap be reduced to about $10,000, by the receipt from international money orders. A comparative statement of the business of this Department for the first three quarters of tbe years t sn c v, s;. show that the receipts have constantly and largely increased and thai there has been a corresponding decrease in the de ficiency so that it is very probable the Post Office Department will he on a self, sustaining basis in a year or two. The count of the cash and securities in the Treasury which began two months go -incidental to a change of Treasurers has been completed and found correct to a cent, with the exception of a deficiency of $2.40, though a formal report will not be made till next week. In reply to a great number of Inquiries, the C'oinmisaioner of Pensions replies, that, under the Mexican Pension Act.pen aions can be paid from the date of the passage of the Act, Jan. 39th, 18S7. only when pensioners were sixty two year old previous to that date ; In the exceptions rule, tbe payment will begin on the dsy when the pensioner is 6a year of age, un less in cases of dependence and disability. The Secretary of the interior ha won additional claim to the admiration of tbe fair sex by the important ruling that mar ried women have the right to enter and buy timber and stone lands under the taws governing the sale of such lands in several of the State sod Territories. There was no surprise In the Interior Department when the resignation of the chief clerk of the Patent Office who is one of these n railed "indispensable" Repub licans, holding office under a Democratic Administration, was announced, lltough the Wahingtnn newspapers cither sup presses or uere proton ml I Ignorant of the real reason, which was the Chief Clerk's relation to tite Bacon defalcation It being the former's duty, under the law of the United State, to examine the. ac counts of the financial clerk every month, and certify whether or not they are cor rect. And the Chief Clerk regularly cer tified to the correctness of the Financial Clerk's accounts, for four year the latter being a defaulter atl of that time. And no sooner Is the Chief Clerk shown the door than he essays the difficult task of "white washing." his corrupt associate in office if in nothing more. There is no doubt but what the various Departments are literally honeycombed with Republican rascals and thieves who should be sent on with Forger Harvey, who will serve his country twelve years in an humble capacity at Albany. In one of the Departments, a certain profninent hold-over Republican, has been so urgent in insisting on the destruction of some of ficial papers that lie ha been placed un der surveillance as a suspect . because such great solicitude must he of much signifi cance cither to this individual or to his associates. Most men are content with holding one office, but I know of several, whose ambi tion cannot be bound in such narrow lim its, Vid as my intelligent friend, the read er has divined, these gentlemen are al most invariably, Republicans, as a good Democrat is generally satisfied with one office. I was led to these reflections by contemplating the easy grace with which the Hon. Carroll D. Wright, holds the Federal office of Commissioner of Labor, to which he was appointed in 1885, by Ar thur, and the State office of Com missioner of Labor in Massachusetts. In the last live pigeon shooting match in Louisiana, the contestants, with an ception of two, used assumed names, and "one of the crack ehots" stated to a writer who communicates the information to the Picayune, that he would never again in dulgc in the cruel sport, and that he be lieved the last match in which live pig eons would be u6cd had taken place in that section. At the .tt li of Juhs celebration in Dan villi III., Miss Maggie Lingenfelter won a fine tirev pattern by harnessing a horse and hitching him to a buggy in less than two miuutCK. Another woman won twen ty-fivc y.-mls of carpeting by showing up B family of thirteen children, eleven of them under 21 years of age. She is the wife f a M iliodist minister. The dignity mid popularity of agricul ture have been increased bv the improved tock on the farm, and increased profits therefrom arc a strong attraction to the farmer with a business turn of mind, The average business man of the city is arabN tiou to become u fine stock-breeder. PATRIOTIC?. '- i . Harrow Post.No. 194,0. A, R.,of Mount Vernon, Indiana, has passed the following resolution which shows the good sense of It members ; Wiikrkam, The Presidentof the United States has accepted an invitation to he present at a meeting of the National Bn campment of the (i. A. R to be held at the city of St. Louis In September nest ; and, Wiirrra, He has Iteen induced to with draw hi acceptance of the invitation by reason of dUloyallty and threatening lan guage by certain individuals, who claim that there is not enough mom in the city of St. Louis for the President and the G. A. R. to be there Rt the same time ; there fore, be it YsvW, That It is the opinion of the members of this post that all individuals whose tanguage and acts contributed to this result, If members of the Grand Army of the Republic, arc guilty of violating aecttotis 4 and 5 of article 6 of the rules and regulation-, of the order, which read as follow : "Section 4, conduct unbecoming a soldier and a gentleman in hi relation to the Grand Army of the Republic ; section 5. conduct prejudicial to good or der and discipline :M and they arc further of the opinion that all said individual whose acts caused or induced the Chief Executive of the nation to withdraw his acceptance of the invitation to be present at the said meeting of the National En campment are guilty of disloyalty .and are a reprehensible as were thote who en deavored to prevent President-elect Lin coln from passing through Baltimore on hi way to Wahlngton for inauguration In rSi. and deserve like condemnation. WaXL MA I It. "By the way.lt will stand repeating that Douglas county 1 happy, prosperous and contcnted,llkewise the state of Oregon and United States of America, and all are en joying the rich blessings of Democratic admlnlstrarion." Roscburg Rrvkrw. Tite Smmdtty Mtrcwry aays : "The civil service reform commissioner of this state take a peculiar view of the duties, which devolve upon them. It would be interest ing to learn, from them, the nature of the charges brought to bear to secure the re moval of any Republican official, who has been displaced in Oregon before the cv piration of his term. The civil service dodge is an arrant humbug. It serves flimy pretext,through the mean of which President Cleveland makes a cheap display of non-partisan patriotism." Really we were not before aware that thi state had any civil service reform commissioners. We would tike to Inquire of the Sirrrtiry what Republican official in Oregon whose tenure of office 1 governed and regulated by the civil service law has been removed from hi office before the expiration of his term. We would ask the Afrrcmry to name the offices in this state that fall within the provision of the civil service law. There Is a huge amount of ignorance in the land on this subject. A few day ago an engineer on the Bal timore and Ohio road, while running from Peerless to Marengo, observed a large black object lying near the track, ome where near Culver's wood. On nearing the object it moved to one side, raising its head a high as the tender. The engineer saw that it was a large snake, but could not tell its length. Arriving at Marengo he spread the new, and soon a great many were on the chase. The snake was pursued for several day. It track could be plainly seen In many places. Through the meadows it broke down tite crass w s leaving a trail . in crossing the road it would spread the dust, making a track eight inches wide. The monster was Anal ly seen about three miles west of Sparta, o . and killed by Dave Hunt, of Bloom field, by being shot in the head. The snake measured 17 feet 2 inches in length A Palermo correspondence of the Stcolo gives an account of a panic accompanied by shocking consequences, which was caus ed by a priest In Canlcatta. After a ser mon, in which all the hprrors of 'the In fernal regions were depicted to his flock, he caused a black figure provided with horns and tail to appear suddenly. The women and children shrieked In horror. many fainted away from fright, and two children were trampled to death by the fleeing crowd. The men were about to lynch the priest, who, however, made his escape. The Milan paper vouches for the accuracy of this report. A successful balloon trip over the Irish Sea has been made by tbe well-known Eng lish aeronaut, Mr. Simmons. He started from Preston for a short ascent,but a con trary brecie took his craft directly over the channel, somewhat to the aeronaut's dismay, as he was neither provisioned nor provided with apparatus for keeping afloat ifthebaloon suddenly descended in mid channci. Happily the wind landed him safely in Ireland, at a farm at Ballyboden, Rathfarnham, seven miles from Dublin, after six and one-quarter hours' journey. Two visitors at Marshville, Wis., live to tell a wonderful story of lightning. One cf them was struck upon the shoulder, the current passing down his leg and through the sole of his shoe, making a clean-cut round hole in the leather and entering the floor. The other was likewise struck on shoulder and the fluid passed out through his slippers, making six clear-out holes through the toe of each of them. Apropos of the weather, It is instructive to know there are about 7,000,000 pores in the human body, and that each pore fs a quarter of an Inch deep. If the pores are hitched together in one string they would reach a distance of twenty-eight miles. When you remember that twent-etght miles of drainage i bringing its sewage to the surface of the body tite necessity for frequent baths this weather ean be ap preciated.

Since one of the proprietors of the Eat ureganian oceanic postmaster, mat news paper has discovered that when newspapers go astray the newspaper offices, and not the postinastcta, are to blame, host rortlantl women should learn to swim as well as men. Read the follow ir,g from the Walla Walla journnl : Thursday, while Misses Minnie Swluler and Dora llobson were bathing in the Columbia at Swltzler's Is land, the undertow carried Mi Dolon off her feet and out some distance into the river, and although Miss Switxler swam as rapidlly us possible, her friend sank Itefore she reached her. As sosn as Mis Dobaon came to tbe surface, she was caught by her brave companion, who, although nearly exhausted by the struggle, brought the un conscious girl safety to land.

He wil! be hunt ing for a personal society item about some of his women folks taking an out door trip for their health. He himself wrote the Rem and sent it In. It wa written on the back of a bill-head, and the bill head was printed In Portland. So the gentleman can go to the same place for hi personal puff. He say that the ladies requested him t write their item. They should now request him to have hi bill-heads built at his home print shop.
