i The Maryland Legislature has passed
a bill reduoing the marriage license fees
in thct State from $4.50 to 60 cents. If
the Governor signs the bill every anmated

the1 estimate of a prominent railroad man,
are in Florida at this time. Not only are
the hotels at Jacksonville, St Augustine

but' all the little hotels and boarding

Northern and Western tourists.
Mgr. Capel has come to the ' conclu
sion that he has seen as much of the

A Cincinnati merchant, who was com
pelled to ride to his country home in a
smoking oar, fell dead the other day on
the train, killed by dense and villainous
tob&ooo smoke. The Indian weed has
much to answer for, but this is probably
the first time that the direct charge of
murder has been brought against it;
Mrs. Wiloox, a sister of ex-United
States Treasurer Spinner, is the victim of
a emrious hallucination. She thinks that
she has bought 1 the dwelling house of
Speaker Sheard, of the New York Asaem
bly, alleging that she paid $18,000 for it'
through her agent, Governor Cleveland.
She has broken into the house on mora
than 'one occasion, and on Monday Mr.
Sheard found it necessary to have her
sent to the asylum at Bingham ton. Her
brother, now eighty-two years old, lives
a his plantation in Florida.
i Representative Budd, of California,
thinks that as 50 per eent of the Chinese
in this country are the slaves of the opium
pipe, the best way to get rid pf them is to j
prohibit and punish; the importation and
sale of this energetic narcotic. This is the
purport of the bill that he has just intro
duced in the House. A bill that provides
so east a solution to the Chinese question,
and promises a redaction of opium imports
that have alarmingly increased within two
years from eo,uvo pounds to zya.ioz
pounds, ought to be inviting.
The recent hearing before the New
York Senate oommittee on publio health
seems to indicate that the manufacturers of
oleomargarine are so pleased with the suc
cess of their production, that in order to
ensure its genuineness which must con
sist in proper admixture of cotton seed
or suet oil, lard, nitric acid and coloring
matter-r-they would have the packages
marked "artificial butter.". It is the Only
way to convince the public of the cheap
ness and exceptional quality of their arti
ele. If. then the people persist in buying
the dairy product, it will be their own
fault. !
Perhaps the most striking feature of
the summer hats is that they all have high
crowns.; The, high, square-erowned walk
ing hat of this' winter is being reproduoed
in straw with very slight differences.
There ake those with the rolling brim,
those with the flat and those with but litt'e
brim of any kind. Some have the straw
edge so 1 arranged as 1 to form a sort of
second story at the back, to be covered of
course by the trimming. Another notioe
able faeti is that all the straw, goods dis
played as yet are very fine, much more so
than has been the oase for seveial years
past. Some of these too, are shaded,
showing; the light and dark tints, dray
is to be a f ashionable and mueh used col

met, the high crown of which is exactly
the shape of the head-eovering of ancient
warriors. It has a brim, but not a very
wide one, and it is said to be particularly
becoming; The bonnets show some slight
ohangei in the little capote shape so long
popular, j The crown is slightly higher
and many of them have flattened sides.
Some of them are ornamented by a row of
bizkL straws which makes an edging.
Others have scalloped pieces going around
the crown and forming, a neat and pretty
finish. The long popular poke-bonnet is

Mr. York and tbe In
ternal Revenue.
Washington, March 22. Housi.
The regular order being demanded, Ford
tf Colorado, appealed te the House to allow
oae hour to be devoted to the considera
tion of the Senate bills on the speaker's
table. The appeal proving ineffectual, he
solemnly declared that no more bills could
be passed daring the remainder of the
session. 1
Under the call of oommitteesthe follow-,
ing reports were submitted:
By Mr. Doekery, of Missouri, from the
oommittee on accounts To provide for
one month's extra pay to certain employ
ees of the House. Committee of the
whole.
Mr. Cox, of North Carolina, from the
committee on foreign affairs, reported a
resolution calling on the President for
information as to what action had been
taken by the United States or Venezuela
under the provisions of the joint
resolution providing ft - a new mixed
commission and as to wnether Venezuela
has declined to make payment, whioh was
afterwards adopted.
By Mr. Wait, of Connecticut, from the
oommittee on foreign affairs For the re
turn of the balance of the Chinese in.
demnity fund. Committee of the whole.
By Mr. Vanoe, of North Carolina, from
the committee on patents (adversely)
To reduce the life-time of a patent to five
years.
At the request of Mr. Anderson, of
Kansas, the bill was placed on the House
ca'endar.
The House then at 12.45 went into
oommittee of the whole (Mr. Reagan, of
Texas, in the chair) on the bonded exten
sion bilL
Mr. Herbert, of Alabama, resumed bis
argument against the bill, asserting that it
was only by holding the distillers to the
law that Congress could expect to equalize
production and consumption. Permanent
relief could be accorded to distillers only
by compelling them to oonduot business on
jt sound basis. The passage of this bill
Would lead to an overwhelming demand
for the repeal of the whole tax on whisky.
alt. Ulay, of Kentucky, said that the
Whisky industry was made legitimate by
the government and demanded the same
protection from Congress which was
granted to any other business or avocation.
He denied that the pending measure em
bodied special legislation, ana maintained
that on the contrary its object was to make
the general law put whisky, beer and
tobacco on the same footing in regard to
taxation- it was a measure of relief
whioh would prevent a crisis in the west.
When Congress could do this without
detriment to the publio interest it should
be done.
Mr. Thompson, of Kentucky, supported
the bill, whioh he said presented the ques
tion whether the government would bank
nipt one class of its citizens when it did
not require for any purpose the money
Whioh would tall due tor taxes. He was
not in favor of demanding the "pound of
flash," and he expressed his surprise
that his mends from the South
(Messrs. Blount and Herbert) should
uphold the polioy of saying, "In the name
of j the law we demand the bankruptcy of
these people. The question of temper
ance was not involved in this measure,
but if a few temperanoe cranks in the
Mouse would vote for the bill it would
result in keeping whisky in bond and out
of! consumption.
Mr. MilUken, while denying that he was
a temperance crank," inqaired whether
even if the bill passed the whisky would
not be taken out of bond in the course of
time.
To which Mr. Thompson replied that
it would pass into consumption when it
?ta ia. a
was oaiiea, ana py tne saaie temperanoe
cranks, for he had never seen one of that
olaas who, before making a speech, would
not step behind the door and wet his
whistle.
Mr. Clements, ef Georgia, opposed iho
billion business principles, and incidentally
declared his willingness to forward any de
mand for the total abolitbn of the inter
nal revenue system.
Mr. Breokenridge, of Arkansas, spoke
at length in favor of the bill as a meas
ure of justice and relief to the whiskey
industry and portrayed the ruin and bank
ruptcy which would follow a failure of the
House to grant that relief. He denied
emphatically that there was any dishonest
ring; organized to urge the measure
through Congress, but called attention
to the numerous petitions before the com
mittee on ways and means asking for this
legislation.
Mr. York, of North Carolina, expressed
bis desire to see the entire revenue sys
torn wired out.
Mr. Hisoock, of New York, opposed the
bilL By its passage the government would
be entering into a partnership with the
distiliers of rye , and Bourbon and would
be getting 41 per cent as its share of the
prouts.
Mr. Ray, of New 'York, opposed turn
ing the nation into a great whisky store
house, declaring that the bill asked the
government to become a wet nurse of the
biz bodv of the whiskv interest.
f - j
Mr. Biaokburn, of Iowa, Opposed tbe
bill and made an onslaught upon the
achievement which the whisky interests
had performed declaring that it had kept
in thej field not armies of the Union, a
had been alleged, but armies of paupeis
of crime anj ct drunkenness.
Mr Findiay, of Maryland, contended
that; the meat are was a proper one, and
because the relief whioh wai aocorded in
the bill was aocorded especially to the
State of Kentucky was no reason why
proper measure should be defeated. The
bill was also in the interest of temperance.
There were now safely guarded in reser
voirs 10,000,000 gallons of double dis
tilled damnation. If the bill were defeated
all this fiery mass of market corruption
would be forced upon in one full disas
trous overflow. Before the conclusion of
Mr. Findlay'a speech the oommittee rose.
Mr. Hancock, of Texa, from the com
mittee on appropriations, reported the pen
sion Appropriation bill and it was referred
to the oommittee of the Whole. At 5:10
the; House adjourned.
O. A. Carpenter Acquitted
Chicago, Mareh 22. A dispatch to
the Daily New from Petersburg sajs:
The trial of O. A. Carpenter for the mur
der of Zara Barns, has resulted in the so
qoittal of the accused. The ease was

they had found the prisoner not guilty.
The accused maintained his composure
throughout, and upon being discharged

. Rebecca, tbe Jewess).
Mr. Benjamin Grata, whose death was
announced last Monday, was the oldest
living graduate of the University of Penn
sylvania and the oldest member of the
Philadelphia bar. Of his sister Rebecca,
who was known as the model of Scott's
heroine in 'Ivanhoe,' the Philadelphia
Teljgraph says : !
"Rebecca Grata died many year ago.
In her younger days she resided with her,
parents in Philadelphia. She had a
warm friend, Miss Hoffman, of New York,
and the two girls were in the habit of
paying periodical visits to each other in
their respective cities. Miss Hoffman was
the betrothed of Washington Irving; but
before the marriage could take place con
sumption claimed the fair New York girl,
and she succumbed to the disease, tenderly
nursed on her death-bed by her friend
Rebecca Grata. Irving, who never re
covered from the loss of his first and only
love, naturally formed a warm friendship
for bis late sweetheart's other self, Re
beoca. Miss Grata was a woman of
singularly pure thought and height of
mind. She kfelt keenly the slight oast
upon her race and creed, for in those
days the4 Jewish disability laws still ex
isted in England, and very few of the
'chosen people were admitted into the
best American society. Paring Wash
ington Irving's travels in Europe Miss
Gratz and he were in constant corres
pondence.: The American author was
warmly received by English writers. With
Walter Soott he sojourned several weeks.
At that time Soott had not avowed the
authorship of the Waverley series of
novels, but to living he confided his se
cret, and also told him that he (Scott) was
at work on a new book, 'Ivanhoe.' The two
authors discussed the plot of 'Ivanhoe' to
gether, and particularly the character of
the Jewess Soott was introducing. ' What
shall I call her ?' asked Soott. "Call
her Rebecca,' " replied Irving, his
thoughts wa&dering to the Rebecca of his
friendship. Irving' dwelt on tbe noble
traits in Miss Gratz's character to his
friend, and especially drew attention to
her steadfastness of creed and the grandeur;
but melancholy Of her thoughts. Scott was
filled with sympathy for her character.
When 'Ivanhoe' was eventually published,
Sir Walter Soott sent one of the first
copies to his American friend, with a long
and affectionate letter. A line in it read :
"How does my 'Rebecca' fit in with your
Rebecca?"

Ka.isas City, Mo., March 22. A
dispatch from Marysville, Kan., says that
about forty masked men went to the jail
there last night and five of them entered
the jailor's residence, presented their re
volvers and compelled him to open the
jail doors. Samuel Prayer, convioted of
the murder ot John Pennington and wue,
was taken out, oondaoted to the wagon
bridge, in the southern part of the town,
and hanged. He is said to have made a
full confession, stating that he had no ac
complices in the murder. The mob was
very quiet and dispersed as Boon as the
work was done.
Augusta, Ga , March 22. This morn
ing while R. D. Crocker, a book-keeper of
the Commercial bank of this city, was
making exchanges with the National bank
at the counter of the latter, he was ap
proached by two unknown parties, one of
whom flaunted a check in his face and
commenced to question him olosely, seem
ingly for information. The party went
out and Crocker found that a pile of
money, $2,700, had been stolen from a
satchel at his side. Considerable excite
ment prevails. There is no clue to the
parties, but they are believed to be the
same who "worked" the Macon banks on
Thursday.
Niw York, March 22- President

North Carolina in Congress.
March 20th Gen. Scales, from the com
mittee on printing, reported back with a
favorable recommendation the Senate bill
to limit tha oost of indexing the Congrtt
tional Record, and the bill was passed.
Senator Ransom (by request) intro
duced a bill to oontinue in foroe for one
year eight months and five days the aet of
Congress "to confirm the term for the
period of seventeen years from the date
of its original grant of the patent of
Thomas A. Weston," approved May 27,
1878.
The April Century.
Five profusely illustrated articles and a
biographical paper with two portraits lend
unusual pictorial interest to the April num
ber. The frontispiece is a portrait of the
late Sidney Lanier, of Georgia, at the age
of fifteen, and with the text of Dr. William
Hayes Ward's essay on "Sidney Lanier,
Poet," is also printed a portrait of the poet
in mature age.
; Among tbe illustrated articles are: An
interesting account by E. V. Smalley, of
the memories which cluster about "The
White House," and the life of the Chief
Magistrate's domicile, and an important
ana very entertaining paper, by Fred.
Mather, on "Progress in Fish Culture," in
which the pisciculturists of the United
States have had the largest share. An in
teresting travel article, without pictures, is
Miss Gordon Cu turning' a description of
"New Zealand in Blooming December."
In point of general interest, TownSend's
account of "How Wilkes Booth crossed the
Potomac," is the best. His information
was derived from the man who gave succor
to the fugitive and his companion Herold,
and who provided them with the boat
which took them across. Between the dis
appearance of Booth in the scrub pines of
lower Maryland and his appearance in Vir
ginia, where he was shot, there has always
been a historical gap which this paper fills
with a very full and, as it is believed, an
authentic narrative.
The other striking essays of the number
are "Uncle Tom without a Cabin,'' by
Walter B. Hill, a consideration from the
Southern point ef view, of the present
status of the negroes of the South; and
Prof. Samuel Willard's interesting pursuit
ef scientific theories, to what he regards
their ultimate conclusions, or "The Des
tiny of the Universe." "Dr. Sevier" and
"An Average Man" are continued. The
poems are numerous and good. "Topics
of the Time" treats the question of crim
inal Justice, under the title of "Mob or
Magistrate," and "The Open Letters" are
more than usually interesting.
State Guard Notes.
The Charleston "News and Courier" says:
"The adoption of a regular uniform for the
State Volunteer troops of South Carolina
works well .in divers ways. It puts the
cost of the standard uniform at a low rate,
which will check rivalry between the differ
ent commands and prevent one company
from outshining another by length of purse.
Then, too, when the companies are formed
in regiments and the regiments are brigaded
we have a body of troops that look like the
soldiers that they are one in appearance
and equipment as in drill and purpose. A
regiment which is made up . like 'Jacob's
coat' is not soldierly in appearance and
necessarily lacks unity."
The Haywood Grays, of Waynesville are
now said to be showing more life.
The Wilmington Light Infancy and the
Pasquotank Rifles (of Elizabeth City) are
the largest companies in the State Guard.
The Salisbury Rifles, disbanded some time
since, will it is said, be reorganized.
Most of the eastern companies will prob
ably Uke part in the Roanoke Island cele
bration. It is said that one company of
the Guard will accompany Gov. Jar vis to
New Orleans next winter.
