tolly Democrat. Duty Is tlie pswer which rise with us in the morning, ami goes to rest with us at night. It is coextensive with the action of our intelligence. It is the shadow which cleaves to us, go where we will, and which only leaves us when we leave the light of life. Paper bottles are coming into use quite extensively. Their weight is less than glass or stone ware and they are less liable to breaking. Fluids stored in air-tight pa per botties will withstand a more intense degree of heat or cold than when pjt In ordinary bottles. Notices have been posted in the exten sive carpet mills of E. S. Iligfjins & Co.,at West Forty-third street and Eleventh ave nue, New York, of a reduction of the pres ent working force of one-half, from and after Monday next. Six hundred hands, male and female, will be thrown out of work. And this too just after the people have voted to return the republican party to power. Can a man of sense believe his reason f . The markets of the world have been de rided and sneered at for months by the party which the people of this country has returned to power. Now there will be a fine opportunity for that party to demon strate how the inhabitants of a country may all grow rich together by simply exchang ing commodities among themselves. The latest scheme for rapid mail trans portation is the electric postal railroad with a proposed speed of 300 miles an hour. A compromise between the pneumatic tube and the ordinary railroad carries a minia ture train of two cars built of sheet iron solely for mails and light parcel), without any attendance. The road has three rails, one above the car for carryingthe current,, and two below which carry the cars. There is almost as much pathos as humor in the following story of an Albany boy of tender years: Shortly after his mother's death, he, with his father, visited her grave, being carried there by a horse which his father had recently bought. The father, standing apait from the grave, was naturally in a contemplative frame of mind, and the boy, being unable to stand the oppressive silence any longer, lifted his childish voice in a an interrogative tone and said : "Ma we've got a new horse." The paper on which bank notes are printed Is called "distinctive paper," being used exclusively by the Government for the printing of bonds and current notes. The mills where it is manufactured are at Glen Falls,Chester county, Pa An agent of the Treasury Department receives the paper direct from the hands of the manu facturer and every precaution is observed in order to prevent any loss. Short scraps of red silk are mixed with the liquid pulp in an engine. The finished material is con ducted to a wire cloth without passing through any screens, which might retain the silken threads. An arrangement above the wire cloth scatters a shower of fine craps of blue silk thread, which falls upon the paper while it is being formed. The side on which the blue silk is deposited is used for the back of notes, and the threads are so deeply imbedded as to remain per manently fixed. Each sheet is registered as soon as It is made. A most interesting event associated with the approaching season is the return of Mrs. Harriet Lane Johnston, the niece of James Buchanan, and presiding lady of the Executive Mansion during his Adminis tration, Mrs. Johnston has taken a fine residence on K street, a few doors west of Seventeenth. She has closed her residence in Baltimcre and goes to Washington for the winter in an experimental way. Last winter she was the guest for some weeks of her life-long friend, Mrs. Hornsby, of Connecticut avenue, a daughter of her un cle's Attorney-General and Secretary of State. She was so much delighted with life at the Capital that she determined to return for another season in order to test her feelings more thoroughly, and If her opinions were not changed by the expe riences of the greater cares of housekeeping she would erect a suitable residence at Washington, abandon her home In Balti more and reside at Washington for the re mainder of her days. Every member of Mrs. Johnston's family who Is near of kin has passed away since the death of her hus band and two children, some years ago.6he has practically lived in retireinent,enjoying only the associations of a circle or intimate friends. She has also passed some time In Europe,and now returns to Washington to enjoy the evening of her days amid the scenes of her social triumphs. Quill toothpicks come largely from France, which possesses the largest factory in the world. This factory, which u located near Paris, was originally started to make quill pens, but when these went out of use the proprietor turned It into a toothpick mill, the present annual output of which Is 10,000,000 .quills. The Supreme Court of Utah has entered a final judgment dissolving the Mormon Church corporation and escheating the property to the government? The defend ants have taien the rase to the Supreme Court of t le United States,where it will be hotly contested. Now there commences the war among republicans for the spoils.
