For instance a workmau can go to and from his work, at a distance of six miles, for 2 cents; twelve miles for 4 cents; eighteen Ailes for 6 cents; twenty- four miles for 8 cents and thirty miles for 10 cents. Yet we are told that govern ment ownership of railroads means cen tralization. If cheap transportation is centralization we think we can stand a little of it. At least we are patriotic enough to try it. ? New Forum. The enormous pile of money comprised in $1,000,000,000 is hardly realized by most people.

It is by no means certain that John Swinton's prophecy will not materialize before the century closes. The interest on the Vanderbilt wealth at 5 per cent, would make it at the end of five years $340,000,000; in ten years. $448,000,000; i$ twenty-five years, $641,000,000 in fifty years, $3,000,000,000. ****** "Faithful unto death" should be the epitaph of Representative Stackhouse, of South Carolina.

Buzzard's Bat, Mass.? Mr. Cleveland and Mrs. Cleveland received the citizens and shore residents of the Buzzard's Bay villages. The guests were largely coun try people from alon^ the shore, witfru sprinkling here ana there of Boston. New York, and Western sojourners at neighboring resorts. There weTe few present of more than local importance, and it was? simple affair soon over. Mr. Cleveland shook each guest by the hand, and Mrs. Cleve had a pleasant word for all ancl a warm pressure of the hand. Many of the country people made thems .Ives at home about the place, in s^-i of quietly departing after presenta tion. They ambled about the verandas, k peeped into windows to catch a glimpse of the furnishings, and some of the young people went down on Mr. Cleveland's bo t landing, helped themselves to his rowboat, and paddled about to their heart's delight. Others ran pell mell over the neatly-kept lawos, investigated the stables, and even the chicken house, which is baing remodeled for hv office for Mr. Cleveland's private secretary. Mr. Cleveland was jovial and unusual i lv cordial to his Cape Cod neighbors, who persisted in ob aining something more thau a mere nod and handshake frsm the nominee. C. T. Obamberlayne introduced the visitor* to Mr. and Mrs. Cleveland, and made a short speech of welcome to Cape Cod to the distinguish ed couple. Mr. Cleveland responded. Those Astrachan Sheen. 1 .?

Their tails aTe loDg and he -ivy, but their wool is beautiful and is used to make astrachan coats and capes which the ladies wear. On the way oveT three little ones were born and t re doing well. If the flock increases under the excellent climatic in fluences in America as rapidly us it did ea route, we may soon expect to see as trachan clothing as cheap as heaver aud less in cost than sealskin.

Mr. Stewart briefly stated that he did not desire to place any Senator at a disad vantage, and he suggested an extension of the time for taking the vote till Wednes day at 3 o'clock. After further discussion as to the time the president pro tem announced that the question was on the motion of the Senator from Oregon (Mr. Dolpb) that the bill and amendment be recommitted to the committee ott finance.

Mr. Vest, ?pera.), of Missouri, asked unanimous consent that the Senator from New York be allowed to proceed. Consent being given, Mr. Hill, who was listened to in silent attention, said: "I desire to speak a single word in re gard to this particular' motion ? the mo tion to recommit, which, I understand, ts the pending question. I am not quite prepared to agree that that motion is its order at tfcis time, The qi?eltion/\bow fever, is not before the Senate. Ah ap peal was feken by the Ssaator from Alaba ma against the ruling of the chair but \|iat appeal has been withdrawn and it is un uec Bsary that I should express any opin ion upon that question. It might be purely a question of parliamentary lsiw. But it seems to me strange if the Senate recognizes the right to make an agree -i ment of the character.that it has no right to enforce it. I rise to simply say that I shall vote against the motion te {pcom njit, not parliamentary grounds but because I believe that the motion to re-/ commit is in violation of ti^e unanimous consent given to take a vote on the bill and amendments atJJ o'clock." The roll was called on thg xqotien to recommit and resulted : year 28, pays 31, so that the motjon was lost.

Mr. Yest moved to strike out of Mr. Stewart's amendment bilfthc proviso that foreign silver coins and bullions formed by melting down silver coins should be excluded frem the provisions of the act. Mr. Stewart accepted the amendment and it was adopted without a division. Dila tory motions, of various kinds were for a time resorted to.

Lost: yeas 19, nays 36. - The amendment of Mr. Warren, Republi can, of Wyoming, excluding from* the operation of the act all bullion from any source whatever, except bullion purchas ed from mines in the United States, was negatived without a division.

The white portion of the county i? principally mad#> up of citizens from l'ex-s, and the influx of negroes is about to wrest from them politicol control of the county.

The first People's Party Convention opened with prayer by Rev. I Wm. McCreeay, of South Dakoia. From the committee on ^-eFedentials came the report that ther^were bo contests and 1, 400 delegates h^d filed their credentials. NJjjdge Robertson, of Texas, presented the report of the committee on perma nent organization, naming H. L loucks, of South Dakota, as'permanetat chairman, and John Yf. Hayes, of New Jersey, sec retary-treasurer of the Knights of Labor, as chief secretary. The elections were ratified with a yell, and Chairman Loucks on being presented' received an enthu siastic welcome. He is a one-legged veteran and supported himself on his crutches. Loucks announced, amid ap plause, that he would dispense with a i speech and would content himself with ?xfcessing the opinion that was the greatest and grandest convention ever held, not only in this country but in the civilized world He was not one of those who believedfthatthe republic \was in danger, so long as the people Existed. He congratulated them on the harmony that prevailed. There were no slates fixed up for the convention; the nominee would be the qhojce of the people and not the choice of the machine element. There was a long debate over a propo aition to admit soldiers who wore the blue and the gray to the two thousand or more of vacant seats, but it was de- ' feated or the gtound that it wouli be a violation of the contract with the citizens ?of Omaha, who had retained the vacant seats. The committee on resolutions re ported* resolution authorizing the chair to appoint a Committee of three to seek tedrset frqm the managers of those West ,a?^ roads that had failed to give special rates to the delegates froinkhe Cm west, but this was ant^nized detents' from California Montana. The for mer said that the reads had been asked for special rates, the same as given to Republican and Democratic conventions ; that they had been refused; that they had paid their way and ssked no favors, and that the time * was not far distant when the people would own the Union and Southern Pacific roads. ZSThe latter declaration was a signal for a great demonstration, the entire audience rising and cheering heartily. After more debate the resolution 1 was so amended as to instruct the chair to appoint a com mittee of three to prosecute the offending roads before the Inter-State Commerce Commission, and in this form it was passed by a large majority. At 12 o'clock it was reported that the platform would not be ready for several hours and ? a recess was taken until 2 p. m. The roll of States was first called for members of the new national committee with the following results for the South ern 8tates: Alabama? J. B. W^are, J. C. Manning, George F. Oaither. Florida- S. 8. Harvey, P. I. Jenkins, F. H. Lytte. Georgia? George H. Turner, C. H. Ellington, J. F. Brown. North Carolina? W. R. Lindsav, Thomas B. Long, S. Otho Wil>on. South Carolina Tennessee? W. H. Gynne, I. K. Tay lor, W. E. Wilkes. Virg.nia? J. H. Hobsoo, Mnnu Pace, S.I.Newberry. At the afternoon sessiou, while wait ing for a committee to respond, a Kansas quartette bronght down the house with a campaign song, with the refrain, "Good bye, old parties, good bye.'' As the committee on platform was not ready, accordingly W. R Lamb, of Texas, moved that the -convention re adopt the St. Louis platfonu and pro ? ceed to nominations. This was seconded in a vigorous speech' by Brown, of Massachusetts, General Weaver's recognized spokesirau. Oa $Ir . Lamb's demand the secretary begun to read the St. Louis platform. It was read, plank by plank, bvt Manning, of Alabama, interrupted. Further de bate was stopped at this juncture, just as the convention *as getting uproarious, by the appearance of the committee on platform with its report, the body hav ing decided, in view of the tfcmper of the convention, to throw orvrljoanl a score of* resolutions that had been submitted to it for consideration. The convention settled down into a dead calm,, when Ca tor, ef California, c was presented snd commenced to read the preamble. The enthusiasm increased tenfold when the speaker read a declaration to the effect that the time had come when the rail roads would run the people, or the peo pie the railroads, and it was a couple of minutes before order could be sufficient- j lj restored for the speaker to proceed. I Branch, of Georgia, movea the adop- j tion of the preamble, aod it waa adopted j by a rising vote wiA more cheering, i Cator now gave way te Braoch, who pro- * ceeded to read the^platform proper. Cries of ''amen'' an^Bbeers greeted the plank in favor of go^Anent control of all telegraph and telep^A| systems, and were repeated when tl^Bsolutiou was finished. The entire pre^^Je and plat form were put to another vote and adopt ed by acclamation, amid another scene of ? boisterous enthusiasm. Geo. James G. Field, of Virginia, was nominated for Vice President on the tirst ? ballot, the vote standing Field 733, Terrell j 554. THE THIRD PARTY STANDARD B?ABER. James B. Weaver was born in Dayton, ' Ohio.

Carp are known to be hard to kill, but one sent to Pendleton from Portland, Oregon, the other day beats the record.

The buttresses of "Trajan's Bridge," which are still to be seen on the Danube, are the remains of what was, in some re # spects, the most remarkable structure ever erocted by man. It was not a mere floating bridge of large boats and mas give timbers, but was a permanent struc ture carried ou piers 150 (eet high and sixty feet wide, comprising twenty 1 arches, extending altogether 4170 Koman feet. Dust at Sea. The British ship Berean, which recent ly made the voyage from Tasmania I vound Cape Horn to England, en connteted a remarkable, but not unusual phenomenon at sea, viz, a storm of dust* After crossing the equator she fell into the northeast trade winds and when about 600 miles west of the Gape De Verde Islands, the nearest land, the Berean's sails and rigging were thinly coated with a very fine powderly dust of" a dark yellow or saffron color, scarcely discernible on or near the decs, but pro* fuse on the highest parts of the rigging, ?o that the sails appeared "tanned." Fins dust falling on vessel* in the At lantic near the Cape De Verde archipel ago has often been reported, but it has so often been of a reddish hue that it is known among sailor* as "red fog," and has been generally supposed to come from South America. The observation on board the Bsreaa appears to over throw this conclusion and to determine the African origin both of the Atlantic dust and the so-called "blood rains" of southern Europe. Admiral Smyth many years ago re ported, during his stay in Sicily, ou the 14th of March, 1814, a "blood rain," which fell "in large, muddy, drops, and deposited a very minute sand of a yel low-red color"? quite similar to that j now reported by the Berean. He then I regarded it as "sirooco dust" '-vn the African desert, "cm ~rvng the Lwitifal theory o' atoaoipac:.^ c.rcn' ?? ion."
