The PilaiiuMfowdgrew so restive under the many re cent misrepresentations of their idol's mental and ph al condition that they he came suspicious that some of the Harrison crowd was irponfMhle for some of them, a n d a little investigation pi )ved that their suspicions were only too well founded. Then there was a roar which waft heard hoth at Par Hnr hnr and Cape May Point, aiid Mr. Harrison straight way sen for Dan Uansholl, hisMarshall of the District of Columhia, and confidential personal friend, and through him the word was passed to the Harrison lambs that there must he no more false bleating, and so ihe matter stands just now, but the Plaine lions have their blood up and it need excite no sur prise at any timeshould they make a inurderousonslaught upon the Harrison lambs and destroy the entire flock. They would gladly do it if Keeper Plaine would but say the word. Indian Commissioner Mor ...in ivlm tins ever since In Hi " ,,w has been in office madea fight against theHonian Catholics engaged h educating the In dians, has now decided that i ii i... no more contracts sunn u made with the Huron u of 'atholic.Missionsfor Conduct ing Indian schools. Foryears all contracts for ('atholic Schools on the Indian rescr vations have been made with this bureau of Xissions, the headquarters of which are in this city, nnd this entire se verance of rclati. -)ns is regard ed as the direct result of re ligious bigotry and prejudice, the possession of which show that Mr. Morgan is entirely Unfitted for the responsible position h e holds. What makes the thing so very un fair is that contracts are be ing made, as tisUal, with oth er denominations for the con duct of Indian Schools. His not for a moment to be sup posed thatMr. Morgan made such an important decison without the consent and sup port of Secretary Xoble and Mr. Harrison, who are the proper parties to hold respon sible fo this most remarka ble case of religous proscrip tion. Ex-Congressman Kerr, of Pennsylvania, to whom more than any other one man is due the credit for the demo cratic victory in that State last year, was in town sever al days ago consulting with the officials of the National Association of Democratic Clubs, nnd he bronght news that warmed the cockles of demoerntiehearts. Mr. Ken is no rainbow chaser as his friends very well know, there fore when he says he thinks that Pennsylvania now a doubtful State, with the odds decidedly in favor of the; democrot it ni-ans some-! tiling.

In spite of republican at temps to create hard feelings and antagonisms between the candidates for Speaker of the next House, the best feelings exists between the gentl'Miien. Messrs Crisp and MeMillin are both stopping at the same hotel, and to see them together no one could suppose that they were in any sense rivals. Mr. Mill.-, is a'.-o hero and all three of them are constantly meeting in the most social manner. It i- nonsoiiso pure and simple to say that any man hasatthis time a certainty of being e lected Speaker, as more than a majority oT the democrats of the next House are st.il! unpledged. It is stated positively by republicans that Senator Quay will retire from the chairmanship of the republi can national committee at the mreting of the executive committee which has been called for 'he 20th inst., in Philadelphia, but that he will continue to be a member of the committee. His retire ment will please a great ma ny republicans. Representative Crain, of Texas, passed through Wash ington last week on his way to New York on business. He said he had nothing to say politically until hego through with his business but that when he returned to Wash ington, which would pesoon, he might have some politi cal opinions to express. He has shaved off his mustache avid many of his friends did not at first glance recognize hiin. The ex-Confederate Veter ans Association of Washing ton will tomorrow attend the unveiling of a monument to (hn. Thos. J. (Stonewall) Jackson at Lexington, Va. It is believed that some thing important in a finan cial way is up in administra tion circles, as Mr. Harrison telegraphed for Secretary Foster to come to Cape May Point just after he had had a. long conference with Sena tor Allison, chairman of the Senate committee on appro priations. Mr. Wanamaker isn't to-day half as big a man in the eyes of Mr. Harrison as he was when he raised that $4-00,000 campaign fund By the way, it would be interestii'g to kn.iw how much of tin? money of the Keystone na tional bank went into that cam- paigii fund. It would also be in teresting to know whether Kxam iner Drew, who has been allowel to resign, is to be the only Feder al official punished for this dis gracefnl affair. smmi3H.

Two thousand dol lars a month is pretty good pay for any kind of work. That is nearly as much as the President of the U.
