This catae to the ears of Brown's friends and overtures were madeatouce to Mr. Taylor to drop the whole matter. He demurred somewhat ai.d it is said off.irs of money were made, but with what result is not known.

Modjeeka ou American Audiences. Modjeska is grateful enough to Americans for past favors to stand up for them across the water, according to the story told by Henry Berger, her advance agent. Wten the great artist went from America to Europe, after Laving swept across the country a b'uze of glory, emphasized with the clink of many gold dollars, she met Victor Hugo, the hot-tempered French writer, in Paris.
It pleased him to denounce the American barbarians as a race who could not appreciate art, because they could fu-rm no realizition of it, Modjeska answered in a spirited defense, claiming for American audiences that they did not yawn in an actrfcos face, did not come to the theatre after eating a heavy dinner that made their biood torpid, and that they did show a sense of appreciation that helped their favorites by its enthusiasm. Hugo could not but accept the statements as true, but it is saui that, he utterly routed tho actress ny asking her what about this thing tf going out between acts. Slother Uoose snd the Ioll.

Nothing calls for greater ingenuity in the merchant and the li.arruf.jCMu-er, the professional iT'ja and the mac of any business, than advertising. It is the one faculty which be cannot get along -without.

A-iv rtisin. is sometimes re.arded an a lottery. A bua-dred men invest the same Amount of money in printer's ink and half a doz drew the prize of pubic if u-are.

The value of an a-'T-rtis-inent is in the imprwi'm it Creates by its pertinence or the freshness of tie device, and ceitbfr trouble nor expense is snar-d to accomplish something oat of the ordinary lie.

The street parade when iris pnp-rly gotten up and managed is pronotitic one of the cheapest, and best means of advertising, bat th men who cm avdl themselves of it are v-sry few and if i5 is not np to tho stndard it is worse than nothing at ail.

The action of the Mansfield published exclusively in the CoTtMEitcrAL Gazette on Saturday, has drawn out the officials of the Miners Association. Thomas A.
Armstrong, the Treasurer, who wis accused wiih putting the miners money in Lis pocket, produces a receipt, for all the cash received from the Panhandle railroad, amounting to fl.GO. Secretary Fian-nery offers to pay the accuser's expenses if Le can prove that the secretary's office has not been honestly managed, and President Costelio and Secretary Fiannery isue a joint card fall of plain talk. The following is an extract: "We ask no favors from the gentlemen of tbe Mansfield board of fault-finders. They are irreconcilable if there is anything done fur the peace and prosperity of the district, while the Miners Ama'gamated Association is the instrument through which these things are secured. Their fogy ideas will not allow them to go.
outside of the Knights of Labor to secure tbe palliatives which they cannot ever hop to win under their 'veils of secrecy. We have takfu steps inaui urate a system to secure redress of our wrongs, tht for justness and fairness cannot be gainsaid. xhe employers look upon our association as an institution that can defend them from wrong when its machinery is set in motion, and when it is fricered bv honest, and competent men. It will likewise defend the miners fiom impositions of greedy, selfish and dishonest employers. The actions of its officers can belaid before the public eye for scrutiny and criticism, and no shield is required to cover tneir errors, if any are mailt.
"We waut it understood that the complainants are thos that neither eave their money ir fbieuee to make the arbitration a success. We therefore owe thm nothing. If mercenaries were in demand or engaged iu their venal work, we suggest that they could not more effectually subserve the interests of their Btrategie task-makers, to the' discomfiture and -loss of their dupe followers, than to follow out their threadbare and decaying policy. De spite their efforts to scatter our promising young association it gives mote evidence of vitality and usetulness than even those enemies of compliance with the popuiar majorities cou.d ever wish for their uncertain ideal. From its birth-plac- here it Las spread to ail the principal coal producing States, uutil the Miners 1 Association stands the peer of any union of the craft that this country ever knew.
Its bulwark is to recognize legitimate enterprise and work in harmonious accord wiih capital; to win the support of tne press and thepeoplsnnt.il every vestige of usurpation and oppression shall be by popular conoemnation banished from tbe homes of the miners.1' August Steiner, ex-President of the Trades Tribunal, takes a Lit at the malcontent and advises them to pay the miners representatives on the Tribunal before they iv any more talking.

Tha Dfiferee in Week's Doings Las this to say about Teenier aud iioss "John Teemer, of MeKeesport, ia loudly boasting thit he defeated Edward Hanlan on his merits, and that lianlan'a defeat was not in the least due to rough water and accidents. To accept Teemer's state-meats, which are going the rounds like the tisuU- "floaters" in the newspapers, 1 should have to believa that the day Teemer defeated Hanlan in the Forest Hilt's Garden regatta the water was as smooth as glass, that Hanlan was in tha best possible fix, and that he was rowing in his test form. But in facr, the water was rouh, and Hanlan was not in anything like championship form. In the face of Teetuer's statements I must state that he is a first class sculler, with little experience, and that after Hanlan retires some three years hence he may bave a show to Lb champion, but not tilt then. I did not at tend the regatta that leemer questiona bly won, if he did so at all.
The aftatr was so badly managed that it was hard to say who came in first. Driscoll, of Lowell, claims to have won first prize, which Teemer received, but I think it any one was entitled to be returned the winner it was Iloss." Union Ball Clubs. Philadelphia, October 20.
