No, tho Press had better not meddle with politics for a season. It can do the Republicans no good by its idle talk, and it only exposes its weakness and imbecility by such attempts. The time haa not yet arrived to take tlio necessary steps toward uniting tho warring factions of tho Republican party, nor will it ever arrivo if such sniveling pretenders as the Press persist in rushing to the front and yawping out their senseless clattcr. Timo must interveno before tho factions will bo prepared to look coolly over the past and scan thoughtfully the future.

Said a florist to a reporter the other day: "Probably more ladies would wear natural flowers if they know how to fix them on the corsage or belt without danger of staining the dress by moisture from the stems." "How cat) it be dono ?" The Next Speakership, It is announced that Commissioner of Pensions Dudley is about to institute a thorough examination into tlio work of his predecessor, and also to have examination on the spot of all claims for pensions. To get at the work in a systematic manner he has sub-divided the State into districts and will locate a special agent in each district, with full authority to make such examinations as the cases may re ■ (Hire. The agent will mako his appearance shortly, and the work of weeding out the fraudulent pensioners will commeuco at onco. Dependent cases will receive particular attention, f Dr it is in this line that numerous frauds have been perpetrated. Thoso eases are called " dependent" whefc the mother or father of a deceased soldier are pensioners. The information received at the department shows that in rnahy cases the mothers of deceased soldiers have drawn arrears of pension, and are now carried on the rolls at good round figures, when ihcir husbands are still living and supporting thorn, and that during the war and all the time since they have been supported by their husbands. In some cases the parties obtaining such pensions are property holders. The pension law never contemplated such a thing as prospective support A young man who entered the navy at the ago of twenty, serving Ihree years and then dying from disease contracted in the army and who was the sole support of a widowed mother, of an invalid father, sister or brother, certainly loft an heir to a pension. But if, on the other hand, the mother did not becomo a widow until after his enlistment expired, and he hail no invalid father, brother or sister until after his tombstone was covered with the dust ol fifteen years, he just as certainly left no heir to a pension. The sending home of an •ceasiona' pittance was nothiug more than the act of a dutiful son. 'Wounded and diseased soldiers should be well paid. They are entitled to all that the law will give them, and it is the duty of every honorably discharged soldier and ol every gixjd citizen to aid them in wiping out frauds from tho rolls. Washington", Nov. 13.—The canvass for the Speakership of tho next, Ilt.iise has already begun. The friend* of Mr. Randall St. Louis, Nov. 12.—A man just arrived from Independence says that the peoplo of Jackson county are lionizing Frank Jamea.the bandit. All ages, sexes, aud kinds of society are represented among Frank'sadmirors. The mon go, ilicy say, to hear Frank tell of his wandorful exploits, and tho women for the •purpose of consoling and pledgiug their influence with the Governor should ho be so unfortunate as to bo convicted. Tho ex-membors of the Quantrell brigade go for the purpose of renewing the old acquaintance, and tho young citizens of " Cracker Neck " aud " Rush Bottom " to hear his romantic tales of lifo in tho saddle. When first incarcerated, Frank was given a bare coll, like any other fellow, but the sympathizing peoplo could not ondure to see him treated in this bar- "Easily enough, when tho spray has a background of fern or smilax, neither of which is moist. Roses, carnations and tho bouvardia, that spiked flower that looks like jessamine, never stain. Any or all of thoso placed on similax, for instance, tho ends wrapped in tin-foil, could be worn w ith though a soft handkerchief might be placed beneath for protection. If the spray should be at all damp laying it on white unglazed paper awhile will soon absorb the moisture. Corsage bouquets are placed with tho point down. With a little caro those flowers could be worn on any dress.

His principal opponent will bo Mr. Carlisle, of Kentucky. Knowing Mr. Rar(-all's prompt methods in political work of this sort, a number of Mr. Carlisle's friend.", ir.-luding Mr. Blackburn, went to Mr. Carlisle last winter and nsked him to become a candidate in caso the elections this fall rosulted in Democratic success. Mr. Carlisle consented in caso tho contest could be conducted without personal bitterness. If a deadlock was inevitable and a personal struggle necessary, he refused to becomo a pirty to it. It is understood that tho conference decided upon somo compromise candidate as their second choice in case such a state of affairs should ariso. GOVERNOR HOYT'S AXE. The Stalwart Philadelphia Port Physician MUSIC HALL, Removed and an Independent Appointed. The announcement that Governor Heyt had appointed Dr. Thomas Reed to succeed Di. Philip Leidy as Port Physician in Philadelphia, has caused considerable comment in political aud medical circles. The Governor can removo the Health Officer at pleasure and without causo.

At meal timo, instead of the ordinary prison diet, the bandit sits down to a sumptuous repast of delicacies fit for a royal lunch, also furnished by sympathizing friends.

Such Is the verdict of the delighted audiences that eee "Dr. Reed was an applicant for tho position four years ago, when Hoyt went into office, yet, notwithstanding tho fact that Heed was more intimate with lloyt than I was, I was retained in the position. I was made Port Physician in 1874,to servo tho unexpired term of Dr. William A. Hoffman, who died then. At tho end of Hoffman's torrn I was reappointed by Governor Hartranft and again reappointed by lloyt in 18VJ. My torm expires in January next. It was Stalwart influence that secured me tho plate originally and Stalwart influence of the most powerful character that retained me the position after Hoyt was elected.

No, tho Press had better not meddle with politics for a season. It can do the Republicans no good by its idle talk, and it only exposes its weakness and imbecility by such attempts.

Said a florist to a reporter the other day: "Probably more ladies would wear natural flowers if they know how to fix them on the corsage or belt without danger of staining the dress by moisture from the stems." "How cat) it be dono ?" The Next Speakership, It is announced that Commissioner of Pensions Dudley is about to institute a thorough examination into tlio work of his predecessor, and also to have examination on the spot of all claims for pensions. To get at the work in a systematic manner he has sub-divided the State into districts and will locate a special agent in each district, with full authority to make such examinations as the cases may re ■ (Hire. The agent will mako his appearance shortly, and the work of weeding out the fraudulent pensioners will commeuco at onco. Dependent cases will receive particular attention, f Dr it is in this line that numerous frauds have been perpetrated. Thoso eases are called " dependent" whefc the mother or father of a deceased soldier are pensioners. The information received at the department shows that in rnahy cases the mothers of deceased soldiers have drawn arrears of pension, and are now carried on the rolls at good round figures, when ihcir husbands are still living and supporting thorn, and that during the war and all the time since they have been supported by their husbands. In some cases the parties obtaining such pensions are property holders. The pension law never contemplated such a thing as prospective support A young man who entered the navy at the ago of twenty, serving Ihree years and then dying from disease contracted in the army and who was the sole support of a widowed mother, of an invalid father, sister or brother, certainly loft an heir to a pension. But if, on the other hand, the mother did not becomo a widow until after his enlistment expired, and he hail no invalid father, brother or sister until after his tombstone was covered with the dust ol fifteen years, he just as certainly left no heir to a pension. The sending home of an •ceasiona' pittance was nothiug more than the act of a dutiful son. 'Wounded and diseased soldiers should be well paid. They are entitled to all that the law will give them, and it is the duty of every honorably discharged soldier and ol every gixjd citizen to aid them in wiping out frauds from tho rolls. Washington", Nov. 13.—The canvass for the Speakership of tho next, Ilt.iise has already begun. The friend* of Mr. Randall St. Louis, Nov. 12.—A man just arrived from Independence says that the peoplo of Jackson county are lionizing Frank Jamea.the bandit. All ages, sexes, aud kinds of society are represented among Frank'sadmirors. The mon go, ilicy say, to hear Frank tell of his wandorful exploits, and tho women for the •purpose of consoling and pledgiug their influence with the Governor should ho be so unfortunate as to bo convicted. Tho ex-membors of the Quantrell brigade go for the purpose of renewing the old acquaintance, and tho young citizens of " Cracker Neck " aud " Rush Bottom " to hear his romantic tales of lifo in tho saddle. When first incarcerated, Frank was given a bare coll, like any other fellow, but the sympathizing peoplo could not ondure to see him treated in this bar- "Easily enough, when tho spray has a background of fern or smilax, neither of which is moist. Roses, carnations and tho bouvardia, that spiked flower that looks like jessamine, never stain. Any or all of thoso placed on similax, for instance, tho ends wrapped in tin-foil, could be worn w ith though a soft handkerchief might be placed beneath for protection. If the spray should be at all damp laying it on white unglazed paper awhile will soon absorb the moisture. Corsage bouquets are placed with tho point down. With a little caro those flowers could be worn on any dress. I saw dozens of ladies at a ball whi had been presented boxes of the most exquisite flowers, but they wore not a singlo bud to show for it" went to work on Wednesday morning. His principal opponent will bo Mr. Carlisle, of Kentucky. Knowing Mr. Rar(-all's prompt methods in political work of this sort, a number of Mr. Carlisle's friend.", ir.-luding Mr. Blackburn, went to Mr. Carlisle last winter and nsked him to become a candidate in caso the elections this fall rosulted in Democratic success. Mr. Carlisle consented in caso tho contest could be conducted without personal bitterness. If a deadlock was inevitable and a personal struggle necessary, he refused to becomo a pirty to it. It is understood that tho conference decided upon somo compromise candidate as their second choice in case such a state of affairs should ariso. GOVERNOR HOYT'S AXE. The Stalwart Philadelphia Port Physician MUSIC HALL, Removed and an Independent Appointed. The announcement that Governor Heyt had appointed Dr. Thomas Reed to succeed Di. Philip Leidy as Port Physician in Philadelphia, has caused considerable comment in political aud medical circles. The Governor can removo the Health Officer at pleasure and without causo.

At meal timo, instead of the ordinary prison diet, the bandit sits down to a sumptuous repast of delicacies fit for a royal lunch, also furnished by sympathizing friends. At night, when worn out by tho day's entertainment, the bandit is not compelled to curl himself up in the corner with a pair of dirty blankets like other prisoners, but instead is provided with a mahogany bedstead and a bed of feathers, Do that he can stretch himself at at full length ami enjoy sweot rsposo with the tranquility of an infant. says 'Standing room only last night." Such Is the verdict of the delighted audiences that eee "Dr. Reed was an applicant for tho position four years ago, when Hoyt went into office, yet, notwithstanding tho fact that Heed was more intimate with lloyt than I was, I was retained in the position. I was made Port Physician in 1874,to servo tho unexpired term of Dr. William A. Hoffman, who died then. At tho end of Hoffman's torrn I was reappointed by Governor Hartranft and again reappointed by lloyt in 18VJ. My torm expires in January next. It was Stalwart influence that secured me tho plate originally and Stalwart influence of the most powerful character that retained me the position after Hoyt was elected.
