The rapid displacement of irou by Steel, not only in great structural un dertakings, but ia minor uses, is one of the most marked industrial featnres of the day.

The Little Rock Oasettc opposes the nomination of Tildea in 1880, and ex- presses the belief that in this it expresses j the almost universal sentiment of the Democracy of Arkansas. The Csar of Russia went on the stage at St. Petersburg, after the second act ol "Faust," to compliment Mme.Algani. Such an honor as this, it is said, is with out parallel in tbe Italian operatic 1 is rory ot Russia. ! S :uator David Davis is of the opin ion that Thurman will neat Tildea in the Democratic National Convention.. The Ciacinuati Sun concedes that almost any body could beat Tilden, but wants to kaow who can beat Tburman.

Michel Vincent, formerly famous in France and this country as the Iron Man, elied lately in San Francisco, liis strength was enormous, one of his feats being to lift 800 pounds from the floor to his shoulder; but he too often raised a glass ol liquor from a bar to his mouth, and finally died of intemperance.

The number of thoae who in 1877 78 died of starvation in Brazil is estimated ..tover 150,000, exclusive of deaths in directly resulting frcm it. Frightful havoc was also made by small-pox, which carried off 2 1,0 JO person. There have been few periods in hi tory more fertile in famine than the last lustrum.

This Committee, which was created at the instigation of Air. Blaine, to investigate election frauds in South Carolina and Louisiana, have at last made a majority re port, which Las been placed before the Uni ted States Senate. As the majority of the Ccmmittee are Republicans of the most bitter and malignant kind, as a matter of course the report is fall of Democratic outiages. It makes the assertion that frauds of the most flagrant character, wera committed in every county save one. in South Carolina, and that the freedom of speech and ballot were vir tuaHy a dead letter in that State. In their investigation or.e h mdred and seveu wit nesses were examined in South Carolina, ai. i i.iuety-one wituesjes in Louisiana. In the tattej" Stale ll.e Committee e'aim th:it between fnirty and forty minders were committed for political! causes.. Tbe mi nority report has not yet been submitted. Now who, hn the name of common sense, that know.-, anything about the Republican party and has any knowledge of the tactics by which that parly has so long held svv.iv in the eeuntry, did not Suppose that the committer would make a report substantially like the one just submitted ? It was gotten up as an at tempt to offset the effects of the Potter Committee, who were making startling disclosures relative to the means employ- ed by which Mr. Hayes was put in the Presidential chair, and it was the pumose and design of its originators to have just such a report as they have made. The witnesses were examined with that ob ject solely in view, and oidy such wit nesses were called as would answer their purpose. The Committee was created for the purpose of maligning the South, and its labors had no other intent or meaning. Tbe Committee bad a special purpose and it also had special witneasea with which to accomplish that purpose. We have cot a doubt that if the Committee had profanely attempted to prove that the milleoium actually took place on the first day of April, 1878, those veiy witnesses would have testified affirma tively as willingly as they have testified in the case under consideration. Tbe Republican party has been In a dying condition for three or four years, and its moribund hours have been passed in superhuman efforts, by every means known to fraud, despotism or violence, to resuscitate itself, and this report, coming when the party is in artieulo moriit, is a fittiDg finale to a li fa of vice and crime. It is the ruling passion story in death, and be trays all the feelings of vengeance with which that party has pursued and trampled upon the sacred rights of tha Soutbjduricg all these years. It is a poisoned arrow aim ed at the best interests and best people of our land, but it will fall harmless to the ground and leave no sting behind. COG. STEELE'S SPEECH. Hon. Walter L. Steele, from the Sixth Congressional District, made a capital speech in the House of Representatives on Tuesday last in reply to the charge made by M Keifer of Ohio that fraud, violence, intimidation and murder are known to exist all over the South at eaeh recurriug election. Col. Steele's speech was bhort but pithy; his words wera well chosen and couched in parliamentary language, but he made Mr Keifer out a monstrous liar for all that, and without using the of- i fensive epithet. We mistake; there was oue wor( ja jr. Steele's speech, hich though the representative Irom Ohio did not object to, we do, and protest agaiust its being used by a Southern man either in the Halls of Congress or out of it. We d j u jt like C 1 'Steele's referriag to the Army oi North rn Virginia under General liobert L Lee as "the insurgent army." As Captain Cuttle would say, make a note of that. The Comanche is the most predatory of all the Indian tribes who inhabit this country. They Eubsist entirely by rob bery and it is only the most daring and expert thief who can aspire to the dis tinction of a leader among them. He who can steal the most is made a chief with all the honors, just as ti e Republican party honors its most successful and adroit thieves. Waebiogton Post. THE CLERKS' LAMEST. How They Have to Foot the Senatorial Reception Bills . A Post reporter collied with a government clerk yesterday, who said: 'It's a great mistake to suppose that we who are employed by the government have always soft places, plenty of money and easy times.' How's that?' Why, we oonld get aloug well enough if they aoald only let ns alonr, but we are just blackmailed to death. They not only tax onr salaries heavily for the campaign fund, but every few days they come around with a special demand for money, whioh we don t dare refuse to comply with. These receptions for new senators are all paid for by us.' 'Do they tax you heavily? You wonld be surprised to know how much was collected for John Logan's reception. The drummers went through every one of the depart ment and scarcely a man escaped. It is perfectlv wonderful how much money it takes to meet these constant demands. I believe somebody is get ting rich out of us. Many a clerk actually pa s out money that he needs to buy cornbread fow his family, and here wo are taxed to death for torch light processions, serenades and ovations, and lor scores of things that you don't know anything about. They would disoharge a man if he did cot sometimes contribute. Is that what they eay to you? ' Not exactly, though they intimate it pretty strongly, but, they don't hesitate to tell us that we will all lose our places if we don't do something to help the Grant movement.' The True Way to Invigorate. The true way to invigorate a feeble system is to infuse activity into the operations of tbe stomacb, that wondrous alembic iu which the food is transmuted into the con stituents of the blood, the chief element of our inability. Hosteller's Stomach Bitten, because it accomplishes this end, is greatly to be preferred to many so called tonics, useful indeed as appetizers, but inoperative as aids to digestion and assimilation. This sterling cordial, while it invigorates tha stomach, healthfully stimulates the liver bowels, and kidneys, ensuring tbe escape throngu the regular channels of effete and useless matter tnrown off by the system, which is thus purified as well as invigor ated by it. Its tonic influence is soon made manifest by an Increase of vital energy and a more active and regular discharge of every physical function, and It has the further effect of rendering the system unassailable by malarial epidemics.
