A. C. and W. C. Detweller, of ReadIng, were drowned on Friday night while bathAng in the Sobaylkill.

Archbishop Parcell's remains were taken to Cincinnati on Saturday, and lay in state in the archiepiscopal residence yesterday. The San Carlos agency is to be turned over to the control of General Crook, the agent conMinuing to manage its Anancial affairs. The farmers of Berks county are now repenting their error in urging legislation hostile to the sparrow. The insects are ravaging the props.

The French column operating in Upper Senegal was defeated by typhus fever. At the Sligo Assizes Saturday four men were convicted of conspiracy to murder. The Cork police have discovered six bandred dynamite cartridges concealed near that city.

There 18 no truth in the report that the French flag has been hoisted on the New Hebrides Islands. WEATHER INDICATIONS FOR New England and the Middle Atlantic States cool, fair weather, preceded by local rains in the morning, northeast to northwest winds, and higher barometer. INDICATIONS FOR and fair weather is indicated for New England and the Middle States during Tuesday the sensible conclusion that General Crook shall be permitted to manage the captured Apaches in his own way, and his suggestion will, accordingly, be adopted. The Indians, who have surrendered with the understanding that they will be placed on the reservation, will be placed there, but under military surveillance, to which they do not seem to make any objection. This will keep those quiet who are now in nominal custody, and will bring in the scattered bands that are still in the mountains waiting to learn the fate of those who have surrendered.

Agent Wilcox and his peaceable Indians will not be affected by the movement, as the hostiles will be separated from them and will be kept away from the agent, as he will be kept away from them. At the same time the plan of putting the Indian reservations under control of the War Department will receive a fair trial, and there is every reason to believe that the result will be satisfactory. Thus the vexed question of the disposal of the captured warriors seems to be settled happily, and probably to the greatest advantage of all concerned. ONE OF the best arguments against removing the Mint, or interfering with its work in any way, except to give it the needed increase of facilities, is to be found in the satisfactory figures presented at every annual settlement. This is the one government institution whose work is always satisfactory, and against which fraud, extravagance or dishonesty can never be charged.

While the law allows the deduction of a small percentage of the amount of metal passing through the Mint, on account of wastage, the limit is never exceeded and seldom reached. Last year, for example, the amount allowed for wastage in the amount of gold and silver coined aggregated The amount which actually was wasted, or lost, was and some of this will be recovered eventually from the sweepings of the floors and the soot of the chimney; and, though this amount is legally supposed to be lost, it is nobody's perquisite, but goes to the credit of the government. The Philadelphia Mint is run on business principles and managed by careful men. It is doing much better than the law expects of it, and it would be sheer folly to disturb it. The people who are 80 anxious to get their hands on it could not do better, and would be very likely to do a great deal worse.

As THE recede MEMORY from OF the active GARFIELD. we scenes brought to an awful close by the assassination of the 2d of July, two years ago, the broad outlines of a noble life and the grand proportions of a lofty character are more plainly revealed. In the perspective of time President Garfield's career begins to be recognized as a mighty potentiality in the history of this Republic, and the citizen, soldier and statesman is awarded that high place he will hold through all futurity among the national heroes of America. It is well to rear monuments to his name, to build up shrines for patriot pilgrims to visit in after ages, to perpetuate his lineaments in bronze and stone for our children's children to revere; but his lasting monument will ever be in the hearts of the people, in their appreciation of his worth and their undying faith in his integral manliness. A more fitting and abiding tribute, therefore, to the memory of Garfield than storied urn or animated bust is the voice that gives expression to the sentiment of the people toward their lost leader, uttering in words that will be heard by the generations yet to come the love and reverence and honor paid in common tribute by fifty millions of freemen.

To speak for the whole people in the supreme moments of our national experience has ever been one of the most delicate and trying responsibilities that our great men are called upon to assume. On the death of President Garfield, the one man pre-eminently qualified to speak for the many was the President's chief counsellor, the one who stood by his side when he was struck down, who was with him through all the terrible days of that tragic summer, the man who, by the unquestioned fiat of necessity, was called to the forefront when the head of the nation fell, upon whose shoulders the whole burden of the administration was thrown, and in whom the people reposed such confidence that not a breath of distrust troubled the peace of the land, they knowing that, though the President died, the government still lived. Secretary of State James G. Blaine it was whom the people, through their representatives, honored with their behest to speak in the order of Garfield's funeral, the official ceremonies at the Capitol being the closing act of the national obsequies. How the heart of Garfield's warm personal friend must have been wrung by the task the nation imposed need not be publicly noted, but the Memorial Address given in obedience to this behest bears the immortal stamp of soul-felt sincerity, and appeals with power to the sympathy of every right-feeling American.

The address was delivered before Congress on the 27th of February, 1882, and has now been pub. lished by the government in appropriately beautiful form. It is a masterly tribute, instinct with vigorous truth, as an exposition of character, and, as a memorial, touched with infinite tenderness and breathing the very spirit of the sad hour when the civilized world stood in tears while all that was mortal of Garfield was borne to the grave. More truly than any material structure reared by human bands this abiding work of a great mind, inspired by love and honor, will stand as the people's cenotaph to the memory of the dead President until time shall be no more. "Not marble nor the gilded monuments of princes shall outlive his eulogy, but in these contents the revered name shall shine more bright when wasteful war shall statues overturn and broils root out the work of masonry; not Mars' sword nor wanton fire destroying this living record of his memory." THE MORE the difficulty of reaching Lieutenant Greeley's party, at Lady FrankJin Bay, is appreciated the greater becomes the wonder that any government official should have had the hardihood to order a body of men to take up their quarters in that desolate spot, cut off from all communication with the world and from all relief in case of trouble.

By some almost miraculous chance the party reached the designated spot in safety and proceeded to establish themselves, but since then all efforts to reach them have been unsuccessful. Another expedition is now on the way, with no very sanguine hopes of getting through the ice this year, and its members are already calculating on the most available spot to "cache" a quantity of provisions for the use of Greeley's party in case they are obliged to leave their station and try to make their way homeward on foot. The worst of it is that nobody seems to know just what the Greeley expedition is expected co accomplish. Certain meteorological observations are to be taken, it is true. They are somewhat in the nature of the Signal Service notes telegraphed over the country three times a day, but that they will ever be of any practical use, especially that they will be important enough to warrant the exposure of so many valuable lives and the incurring of so much hardship, is scarcely regarded as a possibility.

If the Proteus and the Yantic succeed in reaching the ice-imprisoned men, it is to be hoped they will bring the party home and leave the frozen ocean to take care of itself. THERE ARE evidences in the reports received by late London files that the stock. raisers of England are importuning the British Government for a prohibitory tariff against the importation of American cattle, and, further, that these importunities are received with a degree of tolerance, not to say favor, amazing to contemplate as shown by an administration professing the loftiest kind of free trade principles. It is one of the fundamental axioms of protection that the ultimate object aimed for is the welfare of the laborer, the advan. his tage of daily the bread.

man As whose there daily toil supplies is no possible advantage, but, on the contrary, every disadvantage to the artisan and mechanic to be derived from the taxation of food staples, a true protective policy seeks to relieve these first products of the soil from all revenue impositions. Protection will develop manufactures and eventually reduce costs, as we in this country 1 know by experience; but all the protection or prohibition in the world cannot increase the natural resources of the ground nor add another acre to the boundaries of the farm. Cattle raising especially requires but the minimum of labor, and the working people of England would not earn a farthing the more if the importation of beef should be strictly prohibited. It would be absurd, of course, for a free trade community to resort to protectionist arguments, but it should be plainly understood that sound protection would never impose burdens on the food of the poor. If England should exclude our cattle from her markets she could only do it as an arbitrary act based on no policy recognized by political economy.

It is a matter, however, which we can afford to rest easy about, as in case the noble Briton cannot get American food staples in his own country he will come here to get them, which i in the end would suit us quite as well. THE London Spectator, in a trenchant and courageous article, sets forth the reasons why Mr. Gladstone should and did consider Prince Leopold ineligible to the post since given to Lord Lansdowne. The English Government, it holds, cannot afford to put a viceroy in a place of control where he cannot be controlled. A Prince is too strong to bear the check line.

In case the amiable Duke of Albany should make a mistake he could not be recalled without an affront to the Queen. The Spectator hints that so close an approximation of second-band royalty might not be pleasant to the neighboring "great and sensitive Republic," in which it overrates our sensibility. We could bear with equanimity the whole Royal Family in Canada. But it finally brings out the true objection: Emigrant Englishmen are Republicans at heart. The British social system is historical here, and therefore endurable: but it is not a good one in itself, and but for tradition it would not last.

It 1s not the business of the British Goverament to plant it in all its colonies, Potting out of Princes in colonial gardens will not alter the character of the soil, That is carrying the axe to the root of the tree with a vengeance. An emigrant American in England could strike no harder blow. It is well that the character of the political soil in Canada is so clearly understood in England. It would probably be easier to raise sympathy for Prince Leopold as a Prince on this side of the St. Lawrence than among the French inhabitants and Irish who make up the large proportion of the Queen's subjects on the other.

A twig of royalty is to us a picturesque object, to be run after and saluted with trumpets. He is as alien and harmless to us as a pillar from the Giant's Causeway or a prehistoric bear. We can afford to be civil to him. But to the Canadians he is a possible danger and a real weight. They know to a penny how much they are now taxed to support the seven governments, and how much more any small imitation in stucco of a royal palace will cost them.

The genuine Canadian owes all his traditions, his reverence, his instinctive obedience to his church; he cares nothing for the house of Hanover, He is in too close proximity to the States not to have learned that the best government for him is not the one backed by the strongest historic prestige, but the one that will give him the best chance to put beef into his pot au-feu and money in his purse. If the government in England understands his temper and wants, and humors them, it can hold him as a remunerative, passive subject a few years longer. THERE is 1 not much danger that government will ever be called on to redeem the money it is now coining or has lately coined for the Sandwich Islands, because that does not bear any inscription representing it to be American coin, nor has it ever had a legal tender value given it by act of Congress. If the politicians in Congress who enacted the trade dollar laws had been gifted with ordinary business sense we should not now be in trouble over that unfortunate "token." It was made for private customers, just as medals are sometimes made; it was for a specific purpose, and not for circulation in this country at all. It should, therefore, have been so stamped that it could not be mistaken for an American dollar.

But this would not have been satisfactory to the owners of it, who wished to make the Chinese believe it was an American dollar. It should be borne in mind, right bere, that there was no deception intended in this; the coin at that time was worth a dollar and a little more in gold, and is yet superior in value to the Mexican dollar, which it was intended to replace. It was so valuable and became so popular in this country that it was readily accepted as an American dollar. It is less valuable now, not because the silver has been taken out of it in som 9 mysterious manner, but because, first, the gold value of 420 grains of silver is considerably less in 1883 than it was in 1873; and because, second, Congress has taken away the legal tender quality of the coin. The career of the trade dollar is a vivid illustration of the necessity that exists in this country for some fixed and intelligent monetary system.

It was a dollar, but not intended for an American dollar. By what is now said to have been a blunder in the law authorizing its coinage it was made an American dollar. By what is now seen to have been a very grave error three years later it was declared not to be an American dollar. Hence the confusion and the difficulty in deciding what to do with the piece of metal. It is and is not a dollar, and both by act of Congress.

London special saya: "The bishops are so alarmed at the storm of criticism evoked by their opposition to the Deceased Wife's Sister bill that they are preparing to publish a reply in juetification explaining their motives. The royal family is much vexed at the failure of the measure, which puts the intended marriage of the Princess Beatrice to her widowed brother-in-law as far off as ever, that project being said to explain the warm advocacy of the bill by the Prince of Wales and his brochors." late Richard C.

It has a wide piazza draped with red and yellow nasturtiums, sweet breathed honeysucklee, clematis and all manner of green creeping things.

In the cool parlor there are many flowers and pictures. To the care of roses Mr. Bancroft has been devoted all his life, and the display of these flowers is the most ramarkable that I have ever seen, not omitting the great London dower shows. Great beds of soft pink Baroness Rotbechild roses, drifts of snowy flowers end the deep dull tints of roses like dark rad velvet are passed.

THE UNARMED NATION. Influence of Our Example Among the Peoples of the Earth for Peace. "Our Duty in the Cause of International Peace" was the pubject of an address by Ganeral Francis A. Walker at Smith College, Noronampton, recently. It closed as follow3: us remain as we are, without weapone of offense or defense.

Lat our title be the 'Ucarmed For one, while respecting the sentiment of those high offisers army and navy, and those members of Congressional committees who feel themselves responsible for the defensive condition of the country, and while entertaining DO strong 40- tipathy to the building of 8 few fast never to see a floating castle, with a 24-lach cruisers to carry our flag upon the seas, I trust plate and 100-ton guns, built for the service of United States. It is, I confess, neW thought to me, and it may appear to many of you, on the first bearing, anusual and vain; yet BR I have earnestly pondered this sos during the last few montha 1t has grown to my view increasingly clear that, first, the example of the United States ss an unarmed nation, and secondly, the force of its Indus rial competition, with the vast advantages which immunity trom conscription and armament will give to the people of this country, as to the production and distribution of wealth, are to become powerful "gents in breaking up the war system of the world. Already this contemplation of our nappler lot is drawing the more prosperous and ndventurous of the Inhabitants of Earope, a million a year, to oureelves. Must not the time 9000 come when increasing intelligence and eelf-confidence on the part of the people will lead them to demand that fresdom from conscription and war taxes be not condistored upon expatriation? Be sure the de nand will be made. Be sure when the demand is made in earnest the statesmen of Europe will find a way to abate and in time to aholieh the system.

Will it be long possible for pelves of this incubus, to withstand that compacations of Europe, unless they can rid tition, as we grow in numbers and productive power, and es the facilities of communication end transportation are multiplied and perfected? I cannot think so. When we have become a hundred millions, when our azricultural production has increased twotold, when our manufacturing production has increased fourfold, all of which will come to pass In thirty years, with the Improvements la tranelt aud traffic reasonably to be anticipated within the asme period, can the effect of our competition be less than to compel the statesmen of Europe to release their people's shaokles and the bardens conscription and almost universal armament impose upon them? And it indeed America shall then contribute to the downfall of war systera, wi 1 15 not prove the greatest of the blessings which the new world has conerred upon the old?" Polysolar Marvels. The mildness of the nights and the general clearness of the air in the latter part of May, and during June up to the summer solstice, combine to make this the most favorable 800 for vlewing the double stars. Fortunately, at this same season many of the most beautifal and celebrated double stars in the heavens are favorably situated for observation. A double star is one which appears single the naked eye, but which when viewed with telescope is seen to be composed of two stars, generally of different magnitades, and often of different colors.

Taere are also triple stare, quadruple stars, octuple stars, and stars in clusters as thick as a swarm of golden bees. The interest in these wonderful objects is greatly heightened when we reflect that they are not mere shining specks or points, but huge suns, which appear minute simply on account of their immense distance from: us. In many cases direct proof has been obtained that thesa double and triple suns are actually held in leash by their mutual gravitadion, and are swinging around and around like giants bolding one another at arm's length. It there Are any planets obeying the attraction of these grappling suns, the presented to them mast be strange beyond description. This siogularity 18 heightened by the contrast in the colors of many of the double stars Some of these colors and the manner in which they are contrasted, produce most charming effects.

For instance, the star called Mirao, in Bootes, really consists of two atare, one of which is orange, and the otber pure sea green. Albireo, to the constellation of the Swan, consists of a golden yellow and 80 indigo blue star. In the double star Eta Cassionela the colors are white and purple; in Zeta Orionis they are yellow and a most strange unnamed color, unlike any of the hues of the rainbow. or any of the pigments known to artiste; in Xi Leporla the colors are white and deep scarlet. Think of a world lighted by two sacs, one pouring forth white rays and be other blood-red rays.

and one perhaps rising when the other sets, producing in the sky an alternation of these colors. A Marshal Killed by a Desperado.

Annuai Consumption of Beer and Spirit A recent calculation about the consumers' cost of the spirits and beer used annually in Illinois has led the 8t. Louis Republican 60 simllar calculation for the whola country.

We know from the government s'atiatica that there are about 170,000 re all liquor dealers in the country. If tbey bave an focome of about dA $930,730,000 annually. During the latest $15 a dev. a the Republican Anda that the total fiacal year taxes were paid on about 72,000,000 gelloce of spirite and nearly 17,000,000 barrels of beer. A gallon of spirits is said to make nearly a hundred drinks, costing about ten cents each, thus yielding about $720,000,000.

The beer consumed is about 4.216.000,000 piq'8, which at five cents a pint makes abont 000,000 Thus in two different ways the conclusion is arrived at that the people of this country pay annuallo for beer and whisky which they drink 8930,000 000.
