The spring is backward in every-

Tub letter of Pope Leo to tho
Irish bishops will bavo tho effect of
calling a halt on the intemperance
and violence into which the Irish

The announcement of the danger-
ous illness of ex-President Davis,
who has lingored on the stage to
see so many of his comrades go down
into the vailoy of death, arouses the
fear that, he, too, will soon follow
(them. His life has been long and
eventful, whilo to the eouthorn heart
his name is so wrappod up in the
great struggle as always to render
Lira an object of sympathetic in-
terest.

Farmer & Henry have bought and now
bav« at their stable on Rusk
street several of the finest and most gen-
tle of horses and ponies, which can be
ridden by the smallest child with safety.
They also have a number of perfectly
gentle driving horses, for the use of la-
dles and children. It is a commendable
enterprise in these gentlemen to have
put their money in these animals, and
make a specialty of providing for the
pleasure of the ladies and children of
our city. These ponies are for sale oi
hire.
In addition a full line of livery is kept
calls made, and in fact the business or t
regular livery, feed, and sale stable ii

Tho Philadelphia News defines tho
difference between a newspaper man
and a journalist. A newspapor man
is one who has been writing edito-

is one who began police reporting

The denunciation of Mr. Conkling
by the Radical organs are intensified
by the consciousness of the able edi-
tors that the ex-boss stated a cold

It is tunny to observe the unanim-
ity with which the Republican or-

Share of the plunder.
If all tho iron mills in Ohio should
