To the Washington Star, a dispassion
ate journal, the Tewkesbury business pre
sents itselt thusly: "The quarrel lietwecn

the Mate Board of Charities over the
management of the Tewkesbury Alms
house i' degenerating into a personal
squabble about the rights aud dignities of
the contesting parties. Both parties seem
to Ik? at fault. Whatever the Governor
proposes is resisted merely because he
proposes it, and in retaliation he denoun
ces the State Board, its officers and em
ployes in irood set term calculated to
widen the breach. The paupers are likely
to be the chief sufferers front the dispute
as it stands. The Governor cannot help i
them, and nobody els*? will come to their i
relief for fear of aiding the Governor.”
The New York correspondent of the

(a stalwart of the stalwarts > in his paper,
this afternoon, gives notice that (1 quote )
‘the CoMMcrM is opposed to driving the
humblest individual out of the Republican
ranks who w orks and votes for the success
<*f the |*arty. It will occur to iut*st people
that it is the quintessence of impudence
for the editor of the Albany Keening Jour

the Republican party. That edict might
better come from someone wbo did not
labor to defeat Secretary Folger and elect
a Democratic Legislature. Whatever the

"Georgia is the Empire State of the
South. She raises nearly a million bales
of cotton every year, leasts of her enter,
prise and progress more than any other
three States in the Union, aud has brought
her politics to such a degree of perfection
that when a good Bourbon is nominated
for Governor, as iu the case of McDaniel,
..nlv r 4 men in the State have the bad
taste to vote against him. Iu this great
and progressive State there are at present
two issues before tbe people. One is the
letter regulation—not the abolition—of
the system of farming out the State con
victs to Senator \Toe'|Brown.and the other
is the taking of the spelling book away
from the negro."—.Yck* Tori ThM*.
The contrast lietwecn the "Empire State
of the South" and the "Empire State of
the North" is rendered the more striking
by the fact that when a good stalwart was
l ist nominated lor Governor in the latter
. rat-hi more than three hundred and
thirty-four "had the bail taste to vole
against hint.'*
The last issue that we can recall in the
••Empire State of the North was the
propriety of replacing the Hon. Barney
Biglin and sundry other "practical” poli
ticians with the nominees of Governor
c|, it laud, and it is needless to recall
Barney and his fellow incuinlienta won.
It tlk- convicts of Georgia, of whom by
the way. Senator "Joe" Brown has not con
trol of all. are not as humanely treated
as the inmates of Sing Sing. Auburn and
other model institutions iu New York,
tbe 1 i..x w ill please state the difference.
As to the negro and the spelling book,
tlie dis]K>sitioti here is to place the same
in the hands of more of his class. It may
lie questioned, though, whether this
would Ik? altogether wise, judging from
the ease with which the Times deals out
to its readers such trash as the al*ove
qnoted s|K*cimen. The organ of "water
stoeraey” and swelldom in general has a
great <lcal to learn.
Sweltering ere the Ik>s Days. •
Despite the fact that the warm days are
coinin'? on apace, the Northern organs are
working themselves up int* quite a state
of |ier'piration that is entirely unneces
sary. The Mobile Itejister, the other day,
ventured to express its conviction that
whoever earrjod New York, New Jersey
anti Indiana in 1"4 would be President,
anti urged file IK-mocrats to lord; for vic
tory in those Mates, and not in Kentucky,
Alabama and Mississippi, which are
“safe for the Democratic [nominees,
on general principles, without regard to
the tarifl.” The Jif-jistrr is one of the few
Southern journals that are charmed w ith
tbe beauties of a protective taritT. This
fact should gain il favor iu the eyes of the
stout champions of the barons. A sedate
Boston editor, however, on reading the
Jie-iister’x suggestion, piously ejaculates:
“‘General principles’ is a phrase worth
studying. In the democratic common
place book it means much. The general
principle of s|*oils, the general principle
of repudiation, and the general principle
of fraud and violence at the polls are to Ik*
included in the summary.”
This is refreshing; as if stalwart and
halt breed had any other bone of conten
tion than spoil—and as if Mahone w as not
counted a necessary factor in the chances
of Republican success in ls-M. “Fraud
and violence,” too. The general princi
ple of "soap" is more refined and alto
gether more persuasive. What a world
we live in to Ik* sure.
The work of excavating a foundation
tor the iKitestal upon which the statue of
”LilK*rtv Enlightening the World” is to
rest ha' been begun in the centre of the
parade ground of Fort Wood, on Bedloe
Island, New York harl>or. The pedestal
will Ik? completed by the summer of I'M,
and the statue is to Ik* erected the follow
ing fall. The excavation will Ik? *>4 feet
square, will extend to a depth of l."> feet,
and will occupy a good share of the little
parade ground. This hole will be tilled
with concrete, and upon this the masonry
will lx laid. The pedestal, which will rise
to a height of 150 feet, will taiK*r off until
at tli*- top it will l*e 40 feet square.
When the statue, 148 feet high, is placed
on the pedestal, its greatest altitude will
Ik* :>k> feet. Tbe walls of the fort making
a girdle in the sha|K* of a star will not de
tract from the lKslestal, but add to it. At
a distance it will appear as part of it.
The sum of SIOO,OOO has been raised, and
it is expected that the balance necessary
will Ik* contributed by the people at large.
Complete drawings of the statue and the
interior supports have lieen received from
Bartholdi. The statue is lieing put to
gether as the work progresses to see that
the joints fit, screws instead of rivets are
used to hold the parts in place. It will
require something like four months to take
the statue apart again. It will lie ready,
it is e.vpeeled, to send to this country in
i ietulK*r or November.
We are in receipt of a copy of the in
teresting report of Prof. 8. Waterhouse,
of the M. Louis University, to Hon. Geo.
It. Loring, Agricultural Commissioner, on
the subject of jute. From time to time
we will publish for the lK?uetit of onr
readers extracts touching ujioti the most
im|Hirtuiit points in the report, which are
of a character to give the highest satis
faction to southern planters in regard to
the successful production of the plant iu
this country. Having*investigated the
subject in the most thorough manner,
l’rof. Waterhouse thus concludes his rc
|Kirt:
••No vigor of language can too earnestly
express my conviction that a great indus
try, productive of vast opulence, now
awaits the hand of Southern enterprise.
The lapse of time has only strengthened
my belief that the Southern States can,
by organized effort, produce anew vege
table fibre, which, ranking next to cotton
iu value, will not only enrich themselves,
but also increase the textile resources of
the world.”
Numerous testimonials are given to
show the adaptability of the South to the
raising of jute, and also of its paying
value as a crop. In fact, the report ef
fectually iucor|iorates jute in the cata
logue of Southern crops.
The United States Supreme Court dis
posed of 387 ol the 1,258 eases before it
during the session which ended on Mon

acted upon during the preceding term.
The number of cases awaiting the action
of the court continues to increase year
by year. At the end of the term in 1870
there were 7**l cases undisposed of; the
Octolier, 1880, term, left 837, and to-dav
there are 871 cases on the docket. All
but fourteen of the cases argued and sub
mitted this term, however, were disused

Some Inquiries Noted.
The Chicago Tribune is moved to in
quire: " Who has the temerity to say that
the Republican party w ill act less wisely
one year hence? And if it shall act as
wisely in 1884 as it acted in 1880, who
dares predict its defeat? It is idle to say
that there is no difference between the
two great political parties of the country
that the contest lietween them is a mere
struggle for offices and spoils. And when
in all history have peoples lailed ta con
trast tbe respective records of rival appli
cant? for their lavor? The Republican
party is the party of progress, and the
Democratic party is the party of reaction.
If the people should wish to move back
ward is there any doubt that they would
choose to entrust the conduct of their af
fairs to the Democratic party?"
It would require considerable space to
answer our great contemporary fully. If
we may assume that the chief display of
wisdom made by tbe "grand old party” in
]Bsn was the distribution of "soap" in In
diana, upon the effectiveness of which so
much turned, we gravely susiiect that
owing to the presumable reluctance of
Mr. S. W. Dorsey to contract for a rejieti
tlon of the job, the wisdom of 1880 cannot
lie exactly duplicated.
Our eontemiiorary is decidedly correct
in its assertion that "it is idle to say that
there is no difference lietween the parties.
To the popular view last fall there was
quite a i*erceptilde difference, especially
in the State of New York and others that
might Ik? mentioned. We are inclined to
think that the jieople about that time
"contrasted” the recent records of parties
and quite unfavorably to the Republican
party.
"The Republican party is the party of
progress.” Unfortunately for it the par
ty was a trifle too progressive, and the
people have on sundry occasions lieen
compelled to call a halt. “The Democra
tic party is the party of reaction. ’
The people manifested a singular
confidence m the Democratic
party by giving it control of the next
Congress. Leaving the surprising result
in New York out of view, will our great
contemporary please explain the remark
able gains of the Democrats elsewhere?
Furthermore, is it not singular that the
packed Supreme Court of tbe United
States manifests such a striking ikt
versitv in negativing so much of the "ad
vanced” legislation devised by the high
priests of the "grand old party?”
It would appear that the iK*ople have
“moved backward.” They have missed a
good deal of their effects during their recent
rapid gait and would like to know w here
the plunder has gone. We are rather in
clined to l*elieve that they do intend "to
intrust the Democratic* party with the
conduct of affairs.” Mr. Conkling shares
our belief profoundly, and we trust that
the Tribune will, ere long, Ik* moved to
coincide with him.
The Newport, ( It. I.) Seicst Rep.), com
menting on the proposed convention of
colored voters, says: “While we have
the profoundest resi*?ct for those colored
citizens who, in the face of the disadvan
tages of the old system, have risen in the
scale of intellectual ability, and who have
shown a fitness for almost any position
that may Ik* assigned them, we sincerely
regret that any of should appear,
iust as race distinctions are lieginning to
pass away, and demand their perpetua
tion. If it is proper to ask an office for a
man because he is colored, it is equally
proper to refuse him one for the same
reason. If such an issue is once raised
and urged on the one side, it will soon
come to Ik? on the other; and when the
strife is again between the black
man and We white man, as such, there
can Ik? no doubt as to the result. The
majority will win.” The foregoing is
prayerfully commended to the attention
of the esteemed Boston Advertiser , there
is a severe candor in the language quoted
that requires no comment.
Suppose < lakes Ames did "go wrong on
Credit Mobilier?” He was not alone.
True, most of his colleagues in the “div
vy” are canonized on the Republican
calendar, but Arnes is recognized as the
only honest one in the lot that sinned,
what is to lie gained by the expunging of
the censure from the journal of Congress?
Should Mr. Win. Henry Hurlbert, late
oftbe New York World, as announced,
follow in tiie track of Porter,the American
public will gain some information as 1 to

The oyster-growers on tbe coast of
France have discovered that oyster shells
which are thrown back into the sea pro
duce tliirtv or forty-fold in two years. The
theorv is that the young oysters attach
themselves to the old shells in preference
to any other object on the bed of the sea.
Women’s dress is said by London Truth
to Ik* threatened with a terrible clumsi
ness. After the taut trimness of the recent
j past, tunics have come in with as much
| fullness above as below, and pleated into
tine bodice quite closely. All the folds
are drawn across from right to left, gath
ered into a small space, and fastened with
one of the fashionable clasps.
A committee ’appointed by the San
Francisco Stock Exchange reported that
it was absolutely impossible to obtain
trustworthy information about the Coin
stock mines, and that the superintendents
i pay no attention whatever to the territor
ial’law compelling them to report to the
officers of the company whatever dis
coveries are made with the diamond
drill.
Lord Torrington, one of Her Majesty’s
Lords in Waiting, is now commonly
| known in the London clubs as “John
| Brown the* Second,” on the* ground that at
! John Brown’s funeral Her Majesty, over
j come* with emotion, put her hand kindly
on Lord Torrington’s shoulder and, to the*
unspeakable disgust of that iieer, ob
served: “You are* now niv oldest iK*rsonal
attendant.”
Amelia Cricklane* was remanded at Bow
street last week on a charge of attempt
ing suicide. She had thrown herself into
the Thames, near Cleopatra’s Needle,
when a dog ran down the steps.and plung
ing in. dragged the woman to the steps,
where she was pulled on shore. The dog
accompanied his master. Mr. Lyford, into
the witness Ikix, and, standing on his
hind legs, took a survey of the court.
I>r. Webb’s cross-examination appears
to have brought out many details, and
added various delicate shadows to Carey’s
infamous character. He was a punctil
ious attendant at holy communion, but
he remarked with a pleasant laugh that
his reason for planning the “removal” of
Mr. Forster was that “lie would not wish
to meet him in Heaven, and the best way
of avoiding it was to send the good man
to his reward.” As for Brady lie never
wanted any.
For want of words to praise the Ameri
can singer, Mile. Van Zandt, Parisian
critics take to fiction. Her new opera,
“Lacme,” so successful, makes her a pret
ty Indian heroine. A Paris paper says:
“Miss Van Zandt once had an adventure,
when a child, with a trilK* of American
Indians, after which the trilK* all became
deeply attached to her, and she has re
tained many snatches of tlie songs she
heard them singing. Hence her fascinat
ing melodies.”
Carson Trevor, I*. I>., rector of Bedford,
is reported to have refused to christen a
child Effie who had been registered by the
name of Iphigenia. The Registrar General
writes to him that it is not requisite to
give any name to the registrar on regis
tering the birth of a child, and if a name
lie given a child may be baptized by an
other name. Second, that the registrar is
obliged to register the baptismal name in
his register, on production ol a baptismal
certificate within a twelvemonth, on pay
ment of the fee of one shilling. Third,
that the baptismal name (the true Chris
tian ) superseded the other.
A little book is circulating in England
entitled “Illustrious Abstainers,” among
whom the author claims Sir Garnet
Wolseley and I)r. Samuel Johnson. Lord
Wolselev has written a letter to a teeto
taler in which he says he takes a deep in
terest in temperance, etc., “but I am not
a total abstainer, and have never claimed
tlie character for myself, but whenever 1
have found it necessary to enforce on the
troops under my command a total absten
tion from alcohol. I have invariably ob
served this practice.” Those who forget
the “Who’s for poonch” of Dr. Johnson,
cannot help knowing that he drank wine
when no one was to be injured by it.
The London illustrated journals make
merry over the Vanderbilt ball—rather,
the newspaper stories aliout it. Thus one
says: “A well-known young lady repre
sented a cat. Her overskirt was made
entirely of white cat’s tails, sewed on a
dark background. The bodice was formed
of rows ol white cat’s heads, and the
headdress was a stiffened white cat’s skin,
the bead over the forehead of the wearer
and the tail pendant behind. A blue rib
bon, with “Puss” inscribed upon it, from
which hung a bell, worn around the neck,
completed the dress.” The comment of
tin* amused narrator is: “And these are
t he|people whom worthy Mr. Herbert Spen
cer thinks work so hard, and stand in
need of more amusement.”
