This broaght Fain, wbo had been an agitator for great pnadnence as a leader, the sMing of 18T1, the forces of Maiabat MsyMahon forced their way into tbe rebellious capital. Pain fought in the ranks at' Ae Commune. Previously to the short-lived supremacy of the Communists he had taken part In the war against Prussia, as a jOBTBtllrtMg soldier. the horrors which accompanied ' the revolution he had as- L but was taken prisoner Rochefort, lionise Michel, and ether notorkras persons, to the penal colony at New Caledonia^ This was In 187a. He es­ caped to Australia in the early part of 1878, with Bocbefort a&d four others. The fugitives then made their way to this continent, landing in San Francisco. He and Bocbefort crossed the United 8tetes together, and in the spring of 1875 sailed froxn New York to England. While residing in London immediately subsequent to this time, the frienda engaged In journalism for a period. They then made their way to Gene­ va. when Llntransigeant was edited for circu­ lation In Paris. When next heard; of M. Pain was acting as Osman Pasha's private secretary at the siege of Plevna, in the war of 1877-78. between Tur­ key and Russia, and which proved so disastrous to the Mohammedan poWMr. He wrote the an­ swer returned to the Bxttslan commander by Osman Pasta, when the surrender of Plevna by the besieging force. His influ­ ence over the Illustrious Turkish officer who de­ fended tbe city was as remarkable as that he now wields in the tent of the Mahdi. It began when he was acting as a newspaper correspondent there, and resulted in his being permitted to re­ main with the Turkish army after all other for­ eign journalists had been excluded from it, and then in his acceptance of a private secretary­ ship, as before stated. When Plevna fell, after a vain attempt at es­ cape, Pain was offered by the Russians to the French Embassy. He was recognised as an ex- convict, and the French Government conse­ quently refused him 1M protection. His ex­ periences as a prisoner of war in Russia seemed to have stimulated rather than to have quenched his ardent love of adventure. When liberated he went to Paris, from whence he embraced the test opportunity of once more engaging In feats of broil and 'battle. This was the Insurrection led by El Msndi, whom he determined to reach, if possible. After he had gained the borders of the desert, his escort abandoned him. Pushing on alone be was nearly killed by wandering Arabs and thrown into prison at Emeh. After three days he escaped from tile Anglo-Egyptian officials andoncMMH^itont to aeoompUsh bis companions succeeded in satisfying tbe *M^^^^%o Ms friendliness, and was thereafter treated with tbe greatest consideration. Whether or not he will escape the skill of British marksmen in coming engagements with the troops of Egypt's ally and virtual master is a matter which probably troubles him less than hie friends. M. Pain is a tall, lithe, and handsome soldier. His complexion is dark, and bis countenance expresses intellectual force and superior will. He is said to be able in counsel and gay and pleasant iu disposition. [Chicago telegram.] Two years' imprisonment in the peniten­ tiary and a flne of $5,000 was the sentence which Judge Blodgett imposed upon Mackin and Gallagher, convicted of oon- ! spiracy to tamper with the returns of an election in the Second Precinct of the Eighteenth Ward. The case of Gleason. convicted of a like offense, was not con­ sidered, and the probabilities are that he will be let off with a nominal sentence. After listening to arguments by prisoners' counsel urging a new trial, the Judge or­ dered the defendants to come forward, when Deputy Marshal Jones, who had taken a stand behind Mackin while the colloquy be­ tween the attorneys had been going on, gave the chief defendant a little push, at which Mr. Mackin looked very angry. His face a$- BU|ned its usual expression of defiance, however, and he marched up to the judg­ ment seat, followed by Gallagher, who was undoubtedly the calmer of the two. As they -stood facing the J ndge, a physiogno­ mist of the keenness of a Lavater could not have told what passed in their thoughts, so perfectly had they themselves under self-control. The Jndge never glanced at them, but read rapidly from a paper which he had prepared while the arguments were not yet finished: "The sentenoe and judgment of the court is that you, Joseph C. Mackin, and you, William J. Gallagher, be now remanded to the custody of the United States Marshal, and that that officer of the court convey you to the penitentiary at Joliet, within the period of ten daya, to remain there com­ mitted, each of you, for the term of two years, and that each of you pay a fine of $6,000." There was a dead silence in the room when the Jndge ceased speaking. The de­ fendants never flinched. Mackin heaved a convulsive breath, but his face did not move. His eyes were almost completely hidden by his shaggy brows. Gallagher looked straight ahead, as if he saw clear through the stern Judge, through the mas­ sive wall, and out into freedom, which had just been cut off from him for two years. "The punishment does not commence," Judge Blodgett broke the silence, "until the def en dents reach the penitentiary. There are ten days till then, during which the de­ fendants are in the custody of the Marshal, and will be accessible for any legal steps immediately to be taken by the defense. With reference to Gleason the case stands as left by the jury. His attorney is pre­ vented by sickness from pressing any im­ mediate motion, and the case will come up in its regular order." , Then Judge Blodgett quickly slid from his seat and hobbled into his private office. The defendants, now prisoners, were taken charge of by the Deputy Marshals and were rapidly marched off toward tha Marshal's office. The crowd followed, jostling each other, some silent, some triumphant, and some cursing until the air was streaked with blue--all were eager to catch a glimpse at the stolid faces of ihe prisoners, but they were thwarted in their efforts. People in the Marshal's office were ready for Ihe emer­ gency. The door of the apartment was open when the column appeared, and it was locked as soon as the prisoners and their escort were fairly within. No one was al­ lowed to enter after them. There are some forms of legal procedure Pushing^ yet to be gone through,- but none of the friends of the prisoners expect any favora­ ble results from these formalities. Execu­ tive clemency now seems to be the last anchor of hope for-the ex-Secretary and his friend. EHDICOTT, SECRET AW OF WAR WILLIAM O. WHITNEY, SECRElABX OF THE NAVY. , JOHN CHARLES BLACK.

Mr. RkMtelberger opposed him on that occasion singly and alone as it proved. Senator hlddleberoer is a young man, oneof the youngest in the Senate. He was born in Kdinbnrg, Shenandoah County, Va, Oct. *. ISM. His educa ion was good, but did not include the advantages ot the unlvt rstty.

At the close of the war he st-idied law, and was admitted to the bar He still continues the practice of his pro­ fession, and resides at Woodstock, Va. His first civil office was aa Commonwealth's Attorney of his county,which he held two terms. The next step in his ranid advance to the hon­ ors of the statesman was his election to the House of Delegates of his State. He was re- elected.makin trfour years of service in that bod v, and w« afterward lour years In the Senate of Virginia. Sine ; i-t"o he has edited three local newspapers. He was a member of the State Committee of tbe Conservative party until 1875.

He received an academic education, and graduated at Wabash College, Ind. A short time after­ ward he entered the army in the Thirty- seventh Illinois Regiment. When he left it iu 1865 he held the rank of Brevet Briga­ dier General. His next step was lo pro­ cure admission to the bar. He entered the office of a prominent firm in Chicago for this purpose, and in due time was admitted to the practice of his profession. His home is at Danville, 111. General Black has been active in politics as a Democrat, and has been frequently nominated for office. Several unsuccessful nominations for Congress, the last only last fall, have maintained his prominence in local party struggles, and are significant of the respect in which his ability is held. Gen. Black was the Democratic candidate for Lieutenant Governor in 1872, and when Gen. Logan was sent to the Senate iu 1879 Black was the Democratic caucus nominee. He was & delegate at large to the Inst Dem­ ocratic National Convention, before which an attempt was made to put him in nomi­ nation for the Vice Presidency, which he prevented.

There is no doubt she will make out of the posi­ tion all that can properly be doue. The mistake of a number of Vice Presidents has been to accept iusignificauce and obscurity through their own lack of exertion. William A. Wheeler, who was Vice President when Hayes was in the White House, lived in as much retirement in his rooms at the Ri$gs House as if he had been a hermit m a cave. David Davis broke the line of modest retirement wheu he held the position of Acting Vice President. He is not at all fond of society, but when he got the place he launched out and gave a series of very elaborate dinners, which included in their course the President, his Cabinet, and every important official of the Govern­ ment. l'he result was that Judge Davis was kept constantly before tlye attention of every one and wielded more influence just through this fact alone than any other Vice President of modern times.

The election of a Senator to succeed Henry W. Blair, Republican, of New Hamp­ shire, occurs in June, but Mr. Blair has been appointed to serve ad interim. Jon- athan Chace of Rhode Island waa chosen for the unexpired term of the late Henry B. Anthony.

On* ot IJacoln's Appointees RaUraa from the Bench. Washington specWLI Oneof the first vacancies Mr. Cleveland will be called upon to fill will be the appoint­ ment of a successor to Chief Justice Cart- ter, of the District Supremo Bench. It is a matter of some surprise that Judge Cart- ter. who is an intense Republican, should have withheld his retirement until after Cleveland's inauguration, thus making way for a Democrat on the bench. His action is reported as growing out of a pique at President Arthur s refusal to permit the Judge to name his own successor. This so irrituted him that he declined to retire until after the close of the Arthur administra­ tion. THE New York Legislature has been me­ morialized to revoke the charter of Trinity Church.

It waa claimed that there was a land-grant special meeting of the Cabinet to legalize' fraud; but the settlers did not have any ad­ vocate there. The Cabinet did not protect' them. On the oontnury, it turnod over to the tender mercies of the oorooration. The whole history of tha land bu­ reau of the Interior Department was a record of demands by buid grant corporations and decrees of the depart­ ment in obedience thereto. When the demand was too exacting, aa in this case, the opinion of the Attorney General was sought behind whioh to hide. By what mysterious power; Mr. Van Wyck asked, could this compary coerce the Government into an extra session of its Cabinet and compel the Interior De­ partment to work nights and Sundays in or­ der to secure action foreclosing Congress snd the people from rending the spoiler from hispiey? Mr. Van Wyek gave notice that the patents issued would be oonteated. Rx-Secre- tary Teller in his reply said that Mr. V^n Wyck was a professional anti-monopolist, and that his object was to pose before the public and to win notoriety. Mr Teller's speech was an elaborate legal argument to show that the Uackbone Companv was entitled to the grant. A RESOLUTION- offered by Mr. How that Mr. Blair be svtorn in as a Senator to fill the vacancy' from New Hampshire, was taken nptn ths Sen­ ate on tbe 10th inst., and a very long argument ensued. The Legislature which la to elect the Senator from New Hampshire will not meet un­ til June next, and the debate turned upon the point whether, in this emergency, the Gov­ ernor had the right to appoint Blair to fill the vacancy, and whether a vacancy had really oc­ curred which the executive could provide for. Nothing of particular interest waa developed in the debate except the point made by Ingalls that the question at Issue had a significant bearing upon senatorial vacancies in Illinois and Oregon.

Mr. Van Wyok said the Senator from Colorado (Teller) had gone to New York to be absent a day or two, and asked that action upon the resolution be de­ ferred for a couple of days. Mr. Van Wyck then offered the following resolution, and asked that it lie upon the table for the present: "Resolved, That the Secretary of the Interior and the Attorney General of the United States be and they are hereby directed, respectively, to take such action as each may deem necessary, to pre­ vent any sale of tbe Atlantic and Gulf West India Transit Companv, or bv any company or person claiming under them, of any of the lands described in the act approved May 17, 1836,' entitled An act granting public lauds in alter­ nate sections to the States of Florida and Alabama to aid in the construction of certain railroads in said States,' si far as the same lies within the line of said railroads between. Waldo and Tampa Bay, Florida, until Congress" shall have authorized the same." The President sent to the Senate tbe names of Edward D. Clark, of Mississippi, to be Assistant Secretary of the Interior, and Sidney D. Jackman, to be Marshal of the Western District of Texas. Republican Senators, at a caucus, pre­ pared the allotment of places on the majority sides of the committees. Mr. Conger is to be Chairman of the Committee on Post- offices and Post Roads, Mr. Pike takes the chair of tbe Committee on Claims, and Mr. Sewell takes Senator Logan's place at tbe head of the Military Committee. Mr. Teller is made Chair­ man of the Committee on Minee and Mining and a member of the Pubilo Lands Committee. Mr. Evarts is placed npon the Judiciary and Foreign Relations Committees. THE principal topic of Interest te the Senate on tbe 12th inst., was the consideration of Sen­ ator Van Wyck's resolution, offered by him on the previous day, directing tbe Seoretary of the„ Interior and the Attorney General to take such action as may be necessary to prevent any sale by the Atlantic and Gulf West kidia Transit Company of the lands described in the act of May 17,1856, gi anting lands in alt ornate section to the States or Florida and Alabama to aid in tbe con­ struction of certain railroads in said States, so far as the same lie within the line of said railroads between Waldo and Tampa Bay, Florida, until Congress shall have authorized the same; Sen­ ator Van Wyck said the land grant was made in 1856 in order that the railroads might develop the country; that from that time until the present nothing has been done in that direc­ tion; that the land has in creased front 10 cents to $10 and $15 per acre, and now the road asks the Government to recognize its title. Mr. George, of Mississippi, presented the cre­ dentials of £. C. Walthall, appointed by the Governor to succeed Mr. Lamar. After the reading of the credentials, Mr. Walthall was Bworn, and took his seat. A written message was sent to the Capitol by tbe President for tbe purpose of withdrawing tbe Nibaraguan and Spanish treaties. The Senate, however, had adjourned.

Philosophy en the Bridge. The wind blew strongly across tie"* bridge. The bliack derby of a large, burly, red-faced man suddenly cleared the iron fence and fell upon the rail­ road track. The faqe of the owner grew redder as he leaned over the Eickets and saw a train approaching. lut he never moved a step, although some thoughtless spectators looked on to see him follow the course of his property in a mad resolution to rescue it. A small boy on the roadway oppo­ site Baw his pfight, leaped from his wagon, mounted the fence, picked np the hat and handed it to the owner. The red-faced man said simply,. "Thank you," and resumed his way. "Never go for a lost hat yourself," he observed to a companion.
