C. SHERMAN-GRANT. We clip the following interesting bit of presidential gossip from the Wash- ngton correspondence of the Baltimore Sun of Monday : Gen Sherman, in don versations With- n the last day or two. , baa declared in the most emphatio manner-that he is not only not a candidate for President, but that if the republican convention in 1884 should tender him the nomina tion he would m&st positively decline it. He says be wants r-st for the re mainder of his- MfeianA when -he sets settled in St, Lbuis he willfremajn, there' most oi me time, ana wnatever excite ment or change he may-tesire he can find in attending army reunions, where" he will meet his Old comrades. He says if the American people want a Sherman for President they can take his brother John. : This is very kind and brotherly, of the General, but while it is not impossible that the American people might be willing to put him into the White House, he can rest assured that they don't want his brother John, and wou t have him. In the matter of selecting the next republican candidate not a few of fcthe leading politicians of the party have for soma months past looked upon Gen Sherman as the most available man, but his declarations as above given, and in which he is un doubtedly sincere, remove him abso- utely from the list. It is thought to be the intention of the friends of Gen Grant to present hi3 name again, and in the peculiar straits in which the republicans are liable to find themselves to urge him as the best man that can be put forward. It is quite evident that Gen Grant has no idea or. going into retiracy.lor ne omits no opportunity of showing himself in public. On the recent Northern Pacific excursion he was never invisible when a crowd collected, was always ready to speak when called upon, and on several occasions made two ana tnree speecnes in one day, and good ones at that. Gen Sherman, a short time since, was re ported as saying that Grant had ruined himself by going into politics, bnt Grant does not look upon it in that light, and is not loth to take a little more rum of the same sort if he can get it. Whatever chance Gen Sherman might stand for a nomination his brother John couldn't make a rifflle, espicially since he wa3 hit by that cyclone last Tuesday week. He has hungered and thirsted for a nomination for the past eight years, and while Secretary of the Treasury his main occupation was in laying wires to secure the nomination, but there is no man in rublic life in this country who has fewer friends or admirers than John Sherman, and foi this reason he never commands a warm support. He has the reputation even among Republicans of being selfish, cold-blooded, tricky, unreliable, un grateful and treacherous, capable of Stooping to anything, promising any thing, breaking all his promises, and betraying his best friends to further his own ambition. This is his record. While he don't stand the ghost of a chance for a nomination it is not so certain that Gen Sherman could not be nominated if he expressed a willing ness. The Republicans are in distress. They see the States one after another slipping from their grasp and the Dem ocratic party growing stronger every day. Dissensions have torn their party into warring factions and forced some of its most potent leaders into private life or driven them into the ranks of oppos ing parties. The party is drifting with out leadership, or unity in council. It is so to speak on the ragged "edge ; in dire distress, and its managers in their dilemma are looking around for some one to come to the rescue. They are not over particular who it is if he can only save the sinking ship. They have evidently thought seriously of Sherman as these frequent interviews as to his feeling upon the subject of a nomina tion indicate, and notwithstanding his absolute declination in advauce.it is not improbable that he may be nomina' ted. There are few public men who could not be persuaded under certain circumstances to accept such a nomina tion, coming from the party to which he belonged, as a call to duty, notwith standing the absolute refusal in ad vance. Gen Sherman was no doubt speaking candidly when he said he would not accept the nomination, but if the nomination were an assured fact, in the face of such declaration, he doubtless would be influenced to recon aider that emphatic "no" and acquiesce. Under the circumstances, however, his nomination would be a confession of the extreme necessity into which the party had been driven. But it would give them an opportunity to dodge some of the ugly issues that have caused them so much trouble of late and let their editors and orators spread them selves on Sherman's achievements, which they would find a more conge nial occupation than answering Demo' cratic charges. Another advantage they would have with him as a candi date and that is that he has not been identified with any of the factions of the party and hence could without any yielding be supported by all. In this 111 UCtO, XOctYAUffr vuv vuaa va lCl JU UUU U question the advantage of Gen Grant, who has tied himself to the Conkling faction in all the squabbles since Gar field was nominated and after he be came President. This, of course, has diminished his popularity, and lessened the extent of his influence. He would no doubt accept the .' nomination if he eould. getit (bat - wjth f Sherman as comDetitor it would be an up hill bust iness withfa6n.

Their action in the next convention will not be so much a matter of choice, as of necessi ty, sort of root hog or die business, in which the one that can do, in their opin ion, the most vigorous and effetive rooting will find the strongest support. Mr. James F. Vorhaes, son of Senator Vorhees of Indiana, has been sent to a New York hospital to be treated for mental derangement. There is a rumor in New York that John Kelly contemplates retiring from politics. This is i step in which John will have the hearty concurrence of a arge number of his fellow citizens. It is now estimated that the shortage of the wheat crop in all Europe will be 160,000,000 bushels, or 15 per cent, below he average crop The demands upon America will therefore be larger than usual.

Ben Butler says the codfish has a dual significance in Massachusetts ; first it is symbolical of one of the State's leadine interests, the fisheries, and, second, an element in the growth of the common wealth, a certain caste of Boston aris tocracy. The growth of Txas is marvelous. The increase in her taxable property astyear was $130,000,000. Newcounties to the number of -sixty-eight were or ganized, giving 20 in all. Besides this, there is a territory twice as large as the State of Georgia not jet divided into counties. ' Lieutenant Storey announces the dis covery of a river in Alaska, which -the natives say is navigable for a distance of 1500 milos. This great and almost unknown territory contains 577,000 square sniles. When the last census was taken there w as but; one white person to every 1450 square miles. The native population is estimated at 30,000. The last reports of the number of live stock in Texas give 4,715,000 oxen, 681, 000 cows, 5,615,000 sheep and 2,000,000 hogs, an increase since 1881 of 4,000,000 head. It is estimated that the increase in the next three years will be double the number, or more, than it has been within the past three years in spite of the drouth and poor outlook for grass this winter. Macon Telegraph: The time spent by Democratic editors in reading out of the party Sam Randall and all who agree with him on the tariff question is time worse than wasted. It is probable that every man will continue to settle for himself the question whether he is or is not a Democrat. If opposition to "protection" constitutes Democracy, is not Editor Jones, of the New York Times, a Democrat? There is more or less mob spirit shown in the Chinese cities where the French men are located. The feeling against foreigners in general and the French in particular is very bitter. It is the opin ion of some of the representatives of France in that country that the time for anything like concession on the part of France has passed, and that the only course left for her now is to march on Pekin. But marching on Pekin, as France is now situated, will not be alto gether a pleasure excursion. Hanged lor Murder. New York Herald. Five men departed this life yesterday without first indulging in the formality of removing their clothing and going to bea, although they had received ample notification of what to expect. The public is glad that the cases are finally disposed of. Whether the deceased per sons also are pleased depends upon the accuracy of the doctrine of an unlimited hereafter. If any one of them, however, was the guileless creature he professed to be he could have well afforded to die for the purpose of ending the profitless and demoralizing talk and curiosity which are the only general results of a murder the particulars of which are made public. The Herald is a great newspaper ; only a great newspaper could treat the hang ing of five men with the levity that characterizes the above extract. Not withstanding the moralizing in the conclusion of it, no paper in this country has done more to cultivate and pander to the morbid curiosity referred to than the Herald, in which accounts of hang' ings, with all the shocking details, have been for years a leading feature. If the Herald and other papers were to give murderers and hanged men less notori ety in their columns, which sometimes amounts almost to making them heroes, there would doubtless be less demorali zation, and less of a morbid desire to see hangings and read the ghastly ac counts of how human beings are choked to death and sent from the presence of the mob into eternity. Candidates for Governor. Xdltor of the Observer. A number of the newspapers of this State are advocating the claims of dif f Brent gentlemen for the office of Gov ernor. Last evening when qu'te a number of intelligent gentlemen were discussing the claims of the different candidates I was astonished to hnd how little they knew of each or rather of what each one has done for the State or the Democratic party. Would it not ua well, when a newspaper advocates the claims of an idividual, to publish a "bill of particulars" of what he has done for the State or party, or what he has attempted to do? Many of these men nave been in office for years and it is better for the people to know what can be said of a man before he is nomi nated, than to try and "fish up" some thing afterwards. Don't say that he was a "Colonel" or a "General" for if that is to be the eriteron then Gen R F Hoke is pre-eminently the' man. for North Carolina produced no soldier whose record can compare with his. Dont say he is a "clever fellow" for the "commercial tourist" has a "patent" on that qualification and will not submit to its beiner infrinffed UDOn. Don't sav that he drew 'ihis, salary regularly for thatJs taken for granted, but state con IciBelyinthe "bilHof particulars" only those things wherein the .State or the party were benefitted.

Mamie L H Gordon, a 14-vear-old col ored girl, daughter of Andrew Gordon, barber committed suicide in Trenton, N J, Friday .under peculiar circumstances. She was the youngest of five children. All the members of the family are in telligent, and are much esteemed by their neighbors and acquaintances in Trenton. Mamie was the pet of the amily, and with one of her brothers at tended the Centre street and public school. They were the only colored children allowed to attend that school, the others beign sent to a separate school for colored children. Their complexion was only a snaae aarKer than that of their white schoolmates, among whom Mamie was popular. On Monday there was trouble in Ma- maie's classroom over a ballad that was passed around under the pupils. It was a vulgar version of "Over the Garden Wall, which one of the boys had brought in. The teacher Miss Lizzie Blair, ob tained possession of it and reported the case so the principal, Thos M Whyte. lie tai&ed severely to the class about the same offense, sent one of the girls home and told the others that he would write letters to the parents of all impli cated, imforming them of the facts. On Wednesday the suspended girl was ta ken back into the school after a satis factory explanation, but the principal repeated his threat to the others. The thought of being reported to her parents preyed upon Mamie's sensitive mind, and she was so worried and frigh tened Dy the threat that she became moody and entirely unlike herself. She told her brother that if the letter was written she would kill herself. She a voided the company of her parents,neg- ected her books and seemed continually in a nervous state of fear. At home ittle attention -was paid to this, as none of the circumstances were known. Im mediately after supper Friday she called her brother to her side, and asked if her father had yet received a note from the principal. He told her that he thought not, but she did not seem reassured, and said : "I can't stand this : I,m going to drown myself or take this poison." Soon after dark she left the house, and on Saturday morning her body was found floating in the Delaware. Her parents were nearly wild at the discovery of their daughter's fate, and the affair has caused great excitement throughout the city. Gen. Ben Butler and the Presidency. At Webster, Mass., Saturday. Gov. Butler talked about hi3 presidential as pirations. Hesaid: A desire to be President of the Unit ed States is an honorable ambition, isn't it. It is not a groveling one. They say I have done my best to be President, I will assume that that is so, for the sake of the argument. The republicans say that although most ef my acts "have been good, they came from this motive. But how could I expect to make myself a candidate for the presidencv if it wasn't by carrying the Commonwealth well, and by winning the people to pro mote me to the highest position. Could I win the presidency by bad deeds and by disgracing the state t 'They admit that I have large ac quaintance with public men, and that I have great talent and shrewdness and cunning. Be it so. But would a man, if he were shrewd and cunning, act bad- y in the way they say 1 do t .Now, it 1 had been a knave, and had wished thus to advance myself, I would have court ed favor with the banks, the railroads, the powerful corporations. I weuld have made favor with Harvard Col- ege." Speaking of the punishment of crim inals in the State prison and the suffer ings of inmates at Tewksbury, he said: "This suffering has stopped now, and I believe that if any man deserves to be made President, the man who did that is the deserving one. Mourning for Her Pet Snake. Hartford Courant. One day this week a lady residing on Chapel street, in New Haven, saw, in going into the garden behind her house, a snake about tour feet long coming toward her. She screamed and ran, thus attracting the attention of a gentleman passing, who killed the rep tile. It was a beautiful creature and a person who saw it said that it was of a rare variety. While they were won dering how the serpent could have reached such a thickly settled part or the city, and be found so tar from the woods and fields, the wite or a uerman physician, who lives around the corner from the lady's house, came up and in quired in tones of great solicitude if any one had seen her "pet snake," and when she discovered its dead Pody sne was loud in her manifestations of grief and anger. She, however, bscame more resigned, and carefully gathering tne remains in her arms, she walked away, lamenting and talking to the dear one, now dead, in a cooing manner and call ing it loving names. Killed by Electricity. The city of Dayton, Ohio, is lighted with the Fuller system of electric lights. On Thursday, midnight, while President Chandler, of the National Fuller Electric Light Company, Presi dent Lowes, of the Dayton Company, and Superintendent 1. K. KODDins, also of the Dayton Company were making a tour of inspection in the rain, a lamp in the business centre or tne city went out. Superintendent Robbms, in low ering the lamp to examine it, took hold of the conducting wire where the insu lation was worn off and fell as if shot. Before he died, which wa3 three mm utes later, he said, "The life is burned out of me." The Weight of Carey, the Informer's Braiu. London Telegraph Dr. Ensor, district medical officer at Port Elizabeth, took "opportunity to weigh Carey's brain. He reports that, in the whole of his long experience, au rine which he has given special atten tion to such subjects, he never knew a brain at once so heavy and so bulky as Carey's, It weighed 61 ounces.

Saved From a Horrible Death Up to May last I had spent at least five hundred dollars for treatment by many of the best medical men, without any benefit. I suffered excratiatlngly, and all my best friends advised me that the Icy band of death was fast apploaching. I caught at a a 8. like a drowning man at a straw After taking two bottles I could feel a change for tbe better. The sores began to discharge freely and the rheumatism to abate. When I had taken six bottles every sore had healed and my skin began to as sume a natural appearance. I persisted until I had taken twelve bottles, large sire and there Is not a symptom of tbe disease remaining, and I feel as well as I ever did. I have gained twenty-one pounds In flesh, and my friends wonder at my Improved condition. I have recommended It to many, and in every Instance with complete success. I believe that 8. a 8. has saved me from a horrible death. C. H. SMILEY. Qotacy, 111. I am sure that Swift's Specific saved my life. I was terribly poisoned with malaria, and was given np to die.
