Mr. Bontelle announces this as a
retaliatory measure, explaining that
the mere prohibition of Canadian

The navy department has received

leaving Havana and will doubtless
come to the Washington navy yard

vessel are treated with due respect.
The government of Brazil has
requested, through its minister, that
the Prince be treated as a cadet and
nothing more. He will therefore
not be saluted as a member of a
royal family, but will of course be
given an opportunity to- inspect the
workings of navy yards. On his
arrival in Washington the minister
will take him in charge.

A government, ownership of rail
roads would possess many features
of merit and advantage, and in a
country like England, where gov
ernment administration is free from
political corruption and favoritism,
there are good reasons why it should
be brought about. But it would
more than double the duties of
government, largety exaggerate the
influence and authority of the
central power and of the dominant
part, and these considerations will,
for a long time to come, forbid even
the favorable entertainment of it in
the United States. The best we
can hope to do is to require that the
owners of railroads shall exhibit a
fair regard for the public interest,
and place the charges on them at
the lowest rates consistent with the
task or earning a moderate profit on
their actual un watered cost, St.

Speaking of the recent dry spell

incident occurring in June, 1873. in
the then far west, a region far this

agreed that
that country, but a farmer would
starve to death. The owner of a
saw mill was there, and as he had
caught a fine lot of cattish the night
before, all hands went down to the
river to take a swim with the
understanding that they should
have a catfish dinner at the sawmill.
About one o'clock a cloud loomed
up in the northwest, and when
those discouraged farmers went
home they had to swim from one to
five creeks apiece. Wheat averaged
fifteen bushels to the acre and the
best chance the scribbler had to get
rich was tost when he didn't take
that wheat at 50 cents per acre.
There need be no alarm about the

WEDDING CAKE DREAM3.
WHAT MRS. STANTON DREAMED.
Jersey City, X. J. June 4. Mrs.
Elizabsth Cadv Stahton said this
morning "Of course I dreamed on
my piece of Grover's wedding cake
I had a beautiful dream of the entire
female sex passing before me in
battle array. At the head walked
Miss Cleveland, and they were all
dressed in garments that came from
under the chin to the cap of the
knee. That dream won't go hy
contraries, for that will be the
coming costume. When it is
adopted there will be no more
pneumonia. The motto of the
corsage should be "Excelsior."

Washington, June 4. George
Frisbie Hoar: "I took ni piece of

it m my desk, saying this will just

spend anything in the senate
restaurant.' That's Massachusetts

fell asleep, listening to the speeches,
and as I laid my head on the desk I
dreamed that I was wedded wedded
to my country. Then I listened to
hear if my county called, and
Columbia, opening her mouth, spoke
with sweet accord and said: ltats.
Then I awoke and found that Johnny
Logan had stolen my cake and eaten
it.
WHAT THE WIDOW BUTLER DREAMED.
Lowell, Mass., June 4. The
Widow Butler on being interviewed
to day said: "I hardlj'put my head
011 dear Grover's cake before I fell
into a peaceful sleep filled ivith the
most beautiful visions. I dreamed I
dwelt in marble halls, with vassals
and clerks at my si-hi-hide I
thought I sat there coly in my
widow's weeds setting one cap for
the governorship, another for the
senatorship, and three caps for the
presidency one on the Democratic
ticket, another on the greenback
ticket, and another on the labor
ticket. I'm a laboring woman
myself, you know. I labor to make
capital out of anything that comes
my wiiy. I dreamed that Dana was
dissatisfied again and threw me the
support of the Sim, thereby electing
another Democrat, but that a
congressional seat came along
and f gobbled it into my cap with
out turning a hair, but I awoke to
find that I had only slipped over the
top of the bed post. I'd like to have
a few minutes conversation with
the man who baked that cake."
