y. Dcuxa the fiscal year 1882 the govern. meat collected 1220,410,730 from customs duties, and in the fiscal year 1883, in spite iV.t. thft sreater part was occu niM in tariff legislation, $213,534,240, a Au nt 49.8:6.490. In the first two dava, under the operation of the new nt trflfl.n00 was paid in duties, and as by far the greater portion of this sum must have been leTiea upon iirh the duties have been Vt V' vu lowered, the results would tend to show that without any disturbing influences "the revenue derived from customs during 1883 would have exceeded largley that for 1882.

Of course, no long continu ance of these enormous collections can h. InnkpW for. nnd it vet remains to be seen to what extent they will be affected by the new law. Men competent to give an opinion say very slightly, if at all. There has just been ploughed up in an Indiana field an interesting souvenir of the famous "hard-cider" campaign of 1840 in that state, in the shape of one of the medals that were then worn by the supporters of Harrison.

It bears on one side a representation of a log cabin, and a barrel of cider placed under an adjoin ing tree. On the reverse side are the inscriptions. "The People's Choice, the Hero of Tippecanoe Jlaj. Gen. w.

Its legality has been questioned, and now another question presents itself. Supposing that a boy of the prescribed age has an older friend who buys cigarettes for him and he smokes them can the minor be convicted of a misdemeanor? In other words, is it a misdemeanor for any one' to smoke? The bill is intended to be a good one, without doubt, but is it ivnini 4a L.t 1 nut is uesigueu It 18 not very pleasant to be a colored person in Westchester county just now. They are arresting the colored brethren somewhat indiscriminately ever since the tssaulton Miss Slocum. Public feeling, however, seems to have somewhat subsided, for there is not so much talk of lynching as there was. Indeed, on Saturday night a burlesque lynching party went to the jail and had a glorious joli-fication.

It begins to look a3 though the assault on Miss Slocum is to remain an unsolved mystery. IT is doubted that the McComas boy will ever be recovered from the Apaches, as the action of the authorities at Washington has shown the Indians that Gen. Crook is not vested with coinplcippnwtM-, and, naturally suspicious, they are not coining in as they promised, but are waiting to see what disposition will be made of the captives. At the banquet to Gen. Crpok at Omaha there was a unan-imoua sentiment that the government bould adopt Gen.

A statement in yesterday's issue of a local contemporary sheet is calculated to do injustice to the M. B. Little Engine and Hose company, of Glens Falls.

The Washingtons did not beat them by twelve feet, but by eighteen inches. There is some difference between the two.

DE BOSNYS OR KEFF A Paris Bohemian Who Claims to Have Known the Elizabe'chtown Murderer. What is probably another chapter in the history of Henry DeBosnys, hanged for murder at Elizabethtown last April, is revealed by a writer for the Parisian press, who has read in the American newspapers of this mysterious man and claims to have been acquainted with him. It is well known that DeBosnys was a man of education and culture, an accom plished linguist, and evidently of aristocratic antecedents. The belief now obtains that his real name was Edward Keff and that he was the associate of Edmond About, Francisque Sarcey and other men of note.

The Parisian journalist writes: "I am positive that the so-called Henry DeBosnys was mv comrade Keff. I see him still, a good- sized fellow, with long, black hair, a smooth, fat, always carefully shaved face emerging from a high white cravat, very emphatic talker and elocutionist, especially when he recited his own verses, watching lovingly in the meantime the skillful blackening up of an old Marseillaise pipe which he seemed to have been born smoking. For five years we met in Paris during the regular six weeks' vacation of the provincial colleges in which he was a teacher, the university not allowing him stay of mere than one scholastic year, whether in the north, the east, the west, the south, Corsica, or even Algeria, because he always ran into debt and kept company with tipplers. I have still in my panoply the pretty pocket pistol with a damascened butt which I lent him three times to blow out what he used to call his brains, in consequence of three distinct failures in hunting rich heiresses. Keff showed me the last time saw him the following letter: Keff: I've just found among daughter's papers two letters, one of hich is in very noor noctrv.

slimed hv nu staves mat you are reaay to elope with my Giuseppa on the horse of certain Mazeppa, whom I suspect to be licensed vender of IJastia.
