. ......... ? ? BY JULIAN A. SELBY. 1 Qerritt Smith thinks that the Civil Bights Bill will fail, and that its failure will be the death of the Bepublieau party. On the other hand, many Re? publicans thick that if it passes, its Saesage -will be the death of the party, o it wonld seem that some of the politicians are oonfonnded by their own BohemeB. They feel like the man who had an elephant on his hands. GnEEiiEY.?We are pleased to learn that Horace Greeley's estate will prove much more valuable than haB been sup? posed. Instead of being worth but 325,000 or $30,000, as was thought a ehort time after his death, it probably represents ? value of about $125,000? quite enough to render his daughters comfortable. Tho Emperor of Morocco is to visit England next summer. He has become infected with the spirit of progress and wants to see the marvels of European civilization.

"Good young men," who stay away from saloons, avoid all wicked places, keep aober, and go regularly to ohurch, complain that the ladies don't seem to care ao much for them as they do for "the other fellows." Herr Faul Lindau, editor of the lite? rary periodical Die Gegenwart, of Ber? lin, was recently sentenced to four weeks' imprisonment for blasphemy, the charge being justified by an article contributed to his journal.
