Dorsey comes in the form of the recovery of a judgment against him of $934.31 in favor of Tbeophile Felter of this city. The face of the note was 8899.96, and it was given for thirty days, its date being April 20, 1385. No defense was made. The veteran showman, Dan Rice, now of Cincinnati, who is in his seventy-fourth year, led Mrs.

I Oif the afternoon of the 7th iust, all that was mortal of an ex-Vice President Of the United States, the' late William A. Wheeler, of Malone, N. was consigned to its kindred dust i The body remained at the, house until th -morning of the funeral, when, after a prayer, It was conveyed to the vestibule of the Congregational Church, where children and adults looked for the last time upon the face eo dear to them. One of the most touching 'and impressive occurrences of the day was the passing through the vestibule, while the body was lying in state, of a procession of the school children of Malone, its length being estimated at a quarter of a mile. Shortly before the hour for the beginning of the services 1:30 p.m.

the remains were borne to a position in front of the desk. The large auditorium was beautifully draped with a profusion of crape and national flags, and a wealth of floral offerings adorned every appropriate place. The deeply impressive services began with an invocation by the pastor, Rev. C. S.

Richardson. The choir sang a beautiful anthem which had been the favorite of Mr. Wheeler, entitled Jerusalem the Golden. A portion of scripture was read by Rev. W.

G. W. Lewis, rector of St. Marks, and prayer was offered by Rev. J.

W. Ashworth, pastor of the First Baptist Church. The choir then sang Come unto me when shadows darkly gather, When the sod heart is weary and distressed. The pastor then preached an eloquent sermon from the text, And they shall bring the glory and honor of the nations to it. Revelation xxi, 20.

After a discourse on the text, Mr. Richardson discussed the character of the late Mr. Wheeler as a citizen, patriot and Christian, his fervent utterances touching a responsive chord in the heart of every hearer. At the conclusion of the services the funeral cortege was formed, and under escort of the Twenty-seventh Separato Company it proceeded to the beautiful cemetery east of the village, where the body of the ex-Vice-President was laid at rest beside the remains of his wife and kindred, who precedod him many years 'ago. Among the distinguished gentlemen in attendance were ex-Presi4ent R.

B. Hayes, Gen. William A Dart and ex-Speaker George Z. Erwin of Potsdam; Gen. N.

Martin Curtis, Senator Charles S. Knapp of Lowville ex-Governor J. Gregory Smith of St. Albans, Congressman-elect J. H.

Mofflt, and hundreds of others. A memorial meeting was held in the Congregational Church in the evening, at which appropriate addresses were made and resolutions passed. EOREION NOTES. At the recent annual meeting of the Suez Canal Cbmpany the report showed that the years receipts were 81,000,000 less than those of 1835. A dividend was declared of 75 francs per share.

Lord Lansdownb is to be made a duke in connection with the distribution of the Jubilee honors In this case the honor may be considered a sort of court-plaster for Lans-downes lacerated feelings On tlie occasion of Queen Victorias Jubilee the gift of Pope Leo will be in the form of a mosaic reproduction of Raphaels fresco representing an allegorical figure of Poetry. It was executed in the Vatican. Mn. John Bright has written-a' fetter in which he, says: Mr. Gladstone, when in Wales, spoke as though there was no Province of Ulster, and no Protestant or loyal Catholic population in Ireland.

It is sad to see so great a Minister descend to artifices so transparent to deceive his countrymen. United Ireland, Mr. Parnells organ, urges the Irish people to further patience, and denounces those men who advocate retaliation for the oppression of the Irish, and says that such a course woifld undo the work Mr. Parnell had accomplished during a decade of terrible years, arid the work to which Mr. Gladstone was devoting the evening of his life.

The operations lately performed upon the throat of the German Crown Prince are considered completely successful, and be will be enabled to take in the Jubilee festivities in England. Dr. Mackenzie, the eminent English surgeon who performed the operations, declares that the trouble is ipt of a cancerous nature, and assures the Crown Prince of complete recovery. The situation in the flooded district in Hungary is but little changed. In some cases the rescuing parties have been obliged to force the people into the boats, as they refused to leave their houses and property, without which, as they expressed it, their lives would be worthless.

Marauders, wading through the waters at night, plunder deserted houses. It is strongly hinted in Austrian Court circles that a project is on foot to create Pope Leo King of Palestine, under a guaranty of protection on his throne by fell the Catholic powers. As it seems to be settled that none of the old-time papal temporal power in Italy will be restored, the foregoing rumor from Austria smacks of something like probability. Mr. Gladstones recent tour docs not seem to have forwarded the cause of Liberal reunion.

The English Liberal Association bus passed resolutions regretting that while Mr. Gladstone makes minor concessions with reference to his Irish bill of 1886, he adheres-to the plan for an Irish Parliament, and expressing the conviction that his speeches in Wales will discourage the hope of reunion, which the Liberal-Unionists desire. The German newspapers affect to see in the retirement of Boulanger from the war ministry of France, a guaranty of peace. The Emit Zeitung says In view of the recent events in France, the immediate luture is looked forward to with full confidence. Assurance of the maintenance of peace is felt for the first time since last summer.

This favorable state of affairs has been greatly assisted (by a change in Russias relations with Germany, which nave assumed a far more friendly character, cool-vncss giving way to oordiality, so, that a muct-lng of the three Emperors is now probable. There Is a mlchty power in the world coming to the surface, and nowhere is this mpre humorous, ly, and yet more philosophically, set forth than in Joelah Allen's Wife's book, Bweet Cicely.

Looked Upon With Disfavor and to Suppressed. 4 i The Wholesale attempts made recently to colonize dependent foreigners lie the United States are not likely to be renewed, but if renewed will be thwarted.

Secretary Bayard hS just made public nearly the full texi of th between tbc'-British Minister, Sir Lionel West, and the Department of State upon the generhl subject of assisted immigration. Minister West inquired whether, under existing laws, Irish immigrants sent out at the public cost qpd who havd friends in the United States able and willing to support them, will be permitted to land. In his'reply Secretary Bayard quotes the law showing that each case must be decided after an examination and if upon such examination there shall be found any person unable to take care of himself or herself without becoming a public charge, they (the officers) shall report the same in writing to the Collector of such port, and such persons shall not be permitted to land. The Secretary continues It is, therefore, impossible to give any general assurance that persons belonging to a particular class will not be obnoxious to the provisions of the law. The only test there is provided is the ability of the intended immigrant to take care of himself or herself without becoming a public charge and this test is to be applied impartially to all persons of whatever nationality.

In view of this policy and these laws, this Government could not fail to look with disfavor and concern upon the sending to this country by foreign Governmental agencies and at the public cost, of persons not only unlikely to develop qualities of thrift and self-support, but sent here because, it is assumed they have friends in this country able to help and support them. Under date of May 17, Minister West 'informs Secretary Bayard that the British Government had intimated that the intending immigrants were nut paupers butcroftors, whose passages ope only partly paid from public funds, and desires to know whether this affects any way the tenor of the Secretarys previous statements. In reply, Mr. Bayard says: For the reasons stated in my note of the 7tb the Department is unable to give any assurance that any particular class of immigrants will be permitted to land. The provisions of the law look to the actual condition of each person and are impartial in their operation.

Richard T. Greener, Secretary. New York, June 9, 1887. THE WEEK. In the midst of the wailing going up from fever-stricken Key West, one ludicrous incident has developed itself.

Fifteen drummers were caught in the city when the fever broke out, and the only way to escape was to club together and charter a schooner. This they did, and were subsequently quarantined fifteen days at a neighboring port. Wbat these amiable gentlemen said, under the circumstances, has not been made a matter of record. Small-fox Has broken out in the Italian quarter -of Chicago, and fears are entertained, if not expressed, that the disease may become epidemic, as the district referred to is one of the most densely populated tu the city. The Pennsylvania Coke strike, which had assumed a threatening aspect, has ended.

On Monday 6,000 men returned to work, tbe advance of twelve and a half per cent, in wages asked for having been granted. Four boxes of friction matches, marked stationery, were shipped on the Peoples Line steamer Drew, the other night, for M. Gottlieb, Rutland, by L. Gottlieb, of this city. The nature of the shipment was discovered before sailing, and the shipper was arrested.

The offense of shipping mtlamma-ble matter not properly designated is a serious one under United States lavva At its annual communication in this city last week, the Grand Lodge of Masons reelected its old officers, including Frank R. Lawrence as Grand Master, and took away the charter of Prudence Lodge, this city, for the unniusonio cojiduct of baviug initiated and raised the. notorious Tom Gould and Jere Dunn. Members of the Lodge who were not directly connected with the initiation and who' did not countenance it, were permitted (o peek Musonio homes elsewhere. Francis Patterson, of Elmira, N.

better known As Blind Patterson, a veteran of the late war, received on the 11th inst. $1,323 pension from the Government, and will receive 872 a month hereafter. This is understood to be the lurgest pensiou ever granted to one person. Patterson was taken blind when on picket duty in the army, and was unable to got back to his regiment. Ha wus charged with desertion, and many years were consumed iu au endeavor to prove his case.

He had no relutives to care tor him, and thus became dependent on charity. Too restless to renutui iu the almshouse, he secured a dog, which he trained to lead him, and ever since (lie war he has wandered about Elmira and vicinity, living wherever he could find shelter.1 Ho and his dog are the most familiur of the local characters. He was overjoyed upon receipt of the large sum, and remarked: Old Blind Patterson wont be kicked around any more. Publlo Doubts in Regard to the Moxfo. Th Moxle came on the marketeo suddenly with the great claim of helping nervous exhaustion, curing the liquor and tobacco habit at once, without reaction or the production of a morbid appetite, while It was neither medicine, poison, tmr stimulant, and not losing lie oirect more than food, caused the doctors to have some doubte iu regard to it, and the chemists were set to work to leuru its composition, when, to tlioir It revoaled only the moat eimple vegetable matter.

It is nowaqueryfromwliat source comes its rapid action on tne nervous system without showing harmful results. Many had stopped Its use, believing such rapid results could not be obtained without it contained some powerful alkaloid like quinine or cocaine.

Tuklnn.tMft Sttsm llsalso Interesting Scenes In- th Hon of Common powerful Pleading of Gladstone and Parnell The Debate to bo Concluded on th 17th Inst. Last Friday night a long and interesting debate took place in th House of Common over the government motion to report th Coercion bill next Friday (to-morrow) night.

The discussion was participated in by Mr. Gladstone, Mr. Parnell and other, who denounced the motion a one for tbe strangling of full and free debate. Their efforts came to naught, however, as the cloture was applied five times in rapid succession and tbe motion of the Government for ending discussion was adopted overwhelmingly. This may be considered the very climax of the anti-coercion fight, which has not been utterly without good results for the cause of Ireland, as several originally very obnoxious clauses of the bill have been amended and the Government has been compelled to abandon the Old Bailey clause providing for the trial iu England of Irishmen whose convictions cannot be obtained from their own countrymen.

In the course of tbe debate Mr. Gladstone aid that a longer notice should have been given of so important a motion as to shut off debate on the 17th. The present state of business and the entire paralysis of Parliament bad caysed intense dissatisfaction throughout the country, but the position had been brought about by the Government themselves. They had been pursuing the false and evil policy of coercion without the justification pleaded on former occasions. They had disregarded ail the usages and traditions of Parliament in the conduct of the measure which they had, under the name of Crimes bill, introduced.

The measure was directed agaiust combination apart from crime. He would suggest to the Governincut that a rational mode to expedite the bill would be to make it temporary instead of permanent, and to strike out all tbe provisions touching; combination apart from crime, assuring Irish tenauts of tbe same protection in respect to their land strikes as is given English artisans in their labor strikes. If the Government rejected that remedy, and had no other to propose, the offensive character of the bill would be retained iu full force. He did not wish to create difficulty by offering opposition which he knew would be ineffectual. He would, therefore, content himself with protesting against the course now proposed.

Mr. Parnell vehemeptiy attacked the Tories as the party that bad always been opposed to liberty and progress of every kind, and in eloquent terms denied that tiie term obstructionists oould be properly applied to Irishmen, who, without seeking to stop other business of the House, were fighting a measure which will prevent all agitation for redress of grievances forever and ever. He could not understand the fatuity of the Government in rushing blindfold along a road which they had already seen would lead to the greatest disorder In Ireland. The Government speakers had harped on th theme of obstruction. As a matter of fact the Irish members had not lifted one voice against any measure except the Coercion bill, which they were bound to resist to the utmost.

The cry of obstruction was not genuine when raised by men who did not desire to advance public business. Let the Govern-mbnt proceed with the real business of the nation, instead of wasting time over a Crimes bill applying to a nation where crime was admittedly at a minimum. it He concluded by moving an amendment thut the House decline to sanction a resolution limiting freedom of debate and assailing the rights of minorities. Among the principal speakers who followed Mr. Parnell, was Sir William Vernon Har-court, who warned the Government that its proposal to summarily shut off debate upon so important a measure as this might be used by a future Government as a precedent for carrying a home-rule bill in a fortnight, and that other measures might be carried through in the same way.

And imagine, he said, some Government proposing a Church Disestablishment bill, and urging that as everything for and against disestablishment had been said already, the third reading of the bill should be taken this day week I It was a conservative government, in an insane passion fqr coercion, that set this precedent, in abnegation of every principle the Tory party had ever contended for. Replying, on behalf of the Government, Mr. Goshen, Chancellor of the Exchequer, denied that any attempt had been made to stbp discussion on the important clauses of the bill, but as an offset to this emphatic denial came the cloture vote of 284 to 167. It is reported that a Government bill, which will an appendix to the Coercion bill, pro viding for tho trial of persons charged with grave offenses, by a Commission of Judges, will be immediately introduced i Parliament, and will be pushed through at the same time as tbe Coercion bilL Did Judge Cooley Violate Law 7 The question whether Judge Cooley, Chairman of tho Inter-State Commission, is not himself violating the Inter-State Commerce law, is asked in a late Washington special to The Tribune. Section 11 of the law says that said Commissioners shall not engage in any other business, vocation or employment.

Dispatches from Lansing, state that on Tuesday of last week Judge Cooley appeared the Supremo Court of Michigan as counsel jn the somewhat celebrated Palms will case. Judge Cooley was reamed in the case about the time of the passage of the Inter-State Commerce law, and has once bfcfore appeared in the suit. Probable Indian Uprising. GabiuelDumont, Riels Lieutenant, is trav-eling up and down the boundary line of the Northwest, inciting another half-breed and Indian rebellion. The half-breeds have refused to accept seed grain from the Dominion Government, and as Dumont assures them of help from the United States in the event of a revolt, serious results are feared.

Tho Canadian Government will ask the United States authorities to keep Dumont in restraint. Pardon of Ex-Governor Moses. Franklin Moses, exGovernor of South Carolina, who was sentenced to the Massachusetts State Prison iu 1885 for a three yearn term on conviction of baviug forged the name of Thomas Wentworth Higginson, has just been pardoned by Governor Ames because of a probability that he could not live long.

Face A Adv. Frem Buckingham Palace to Westminster Abbey and Return Order of Proceaslon Service in th Abbey Spectators and Speculators Equally Well Flensed. Next Tuesday, -the 21st inst, the fiftieth anniversary of Queen Victorias coronation will occur in London with the most imposing ceremonies of thecentury. The fraud procession will start from Buckingham palace shortly after 10 oclock, Her Majesty being escorted by her sons, sons-. in law, and other appendages of royalty mounted.

On arriving at Westminster Abbey the Queens procession will pass up the nave and choir to the marquees, to be erected this week, the Queen, in her full robing of State, occupying the dais immediately under the lecterip The pro-' cessiopVvill be headed by the minor canons of Westminster, after whom will come the six canons. On entering the Abbey the Queen will be formally received by the Archbishops of Canterbury and York, the Bishop of London and the Dean of Westminster, Her Majesty bringing up the rear of a long line of royal people. After the playing of the customary fanfare by the Royal Trumpeters, as the procession enters the Abbey, Organist Bridge will play the National Anthem, the whole congregation standing. Three responses will open the service, to be followed by the Te Deum, sung to the effective setting of the late Prince Consort. This will be followed by more responses, the appointed prayers to be said by the Primate, and Psalm XXX, which will be sung to a Gregorian chant selected by Organist Bridge.

This will be succeeded by the reading from the altar rails by the Dean of Westminster of the approved lesson, 1st Peter, U. 6-18, after which the new Jubilee Anthem, arranged by Dr. Bridge, will be sung. A short address by the Primate may conclude the service, and the blessing will be pronounced by Dr. Benson.

On leaving the Abbey the order of procession wife be reversed the Queen being, first, and the movement will be toward Buckingham palace for luncheon. The preparations for the grand-pageant indicate an exhibition of the costliest raiment, the greatest and most bewildering variety of decorations, and of much the largest aggregation of royally end titled personages ever seen in a civilized country, and in an age which is getting away steadily but surely from the monarchical idea. Along the route of the procession numerous stands have been erected at every available point, and fabulous charges for sittings are freely paid. One enterprising speculator has rented entire hotel for $1,500, and expects to realize a profit of at least $10,000 from his venture. Of her own volition, contrary to her habitual policy comparative self-isolation from her loyal subjects, Queen Victoriisjlecided to abandon the use of the state cohqh, a box-like vehicle, and will ride in fen ojnen carriage, elaborately decorated inqhVcolate and gold and upholstered to a degre The chief complaint now heard respects the choice of churches in which the services a're to be held.

It was hoped at the outset that St. Pauls cathedral would be chosen, for two very weighty reasons First, because of its spacious proportions, which would have comfortably accommodated an immense throng, which will now be unable to hear, or participate in, the services. Secondly, because the line of march would have been several miles longer, thus permitting thousands to see and admire who will now be unable to get within seeing distance. The Queen, however, resisted all pressure of this character, insisting that because of her coronation in Westminster Abbey, the jubilee services should be held there also. At the same time, for once at least, she seems disposed to accord something to the dear people who supply her with $5,000,000 yearly, and in giving orders for as great a show as possible, graciously observed that a great many had paid high prices for the privilege of seeing and of being seen, and these should not be disappointed.

POLITICAL POTPOURRI. Hon. William E. Chandler obtained the Republican caucus nomination as the successor of Senator Pike, deceased, in the United States Senate from New Hampshire, and was elected by a unanimous Republican vote. A convention has been called to be held in Huron, Dakota, on the 13lh of July next, to consider the subject of the division of the Territory and of tho admission of the southern part as a State.

Thus far, the inhabitants of the northern portion of the Territory do not seem to be in favor of division; the more populous section, howriver, is unconditionally in favor of it. If a majority of the North Dakota people can be persuaded to favor the division, it will be brought about within a year, without a doubt. South Dakota has a State Government already chosen, and as patiently as may be awaits admission into the grand sisterhood of States. Ex-Union and Confederate soldiers had a grand reunion at Staunton, on the 9th inst. General Averill was the orator of the occasion, and considerable enthusiasm was manifested.
