The Democratic Convention can make
no very bad mistake by steering clear ol
bosses Butler and Kelly.
The Shah of Persia smokes a pipe that
cost 1400,000, and it made his subjects
smoke like fits to furnish the money that
pjUd for it.
Prof. Alexander Graham Bell, of Wash
ingtnu, has a beautiful deaf mute wife.
Right minded men will congratulate, not
envy, him.
The Butler campaign badge is a spoon
fastened to the hat by means of a pin and
catch. It is stated that Butler predicts
that a halt million of them will be worn
before the election.
An impudent Chicago reporter asked
Gen. Butler Sunday if he intended to put
himself in nomination for the Presidency.
It is stated that the old sinner actually
blushed.
The important and astonishing news
comes across the sea that SarakJ Bern
hardt is getting stout, and many learned
females are anxious to know upon what
meat she has fed that she has brought
about this improvement.
Cupid is said to be going the rounds of
the various summer resorts. When he is
absent from a certain watering place
cupidity is sure to he present shattering
hearts in even a more fatal manner than
is done by the cute little god himself.
It is to be hoped that Tom Ochiltree will
go home for a few weeks now, nnd let the
country have a rest from bis brilliant fol
lies. Should he be fortunate enough to
get back to Congress he may be fresh
enough by December to attract some at
tention again.
Every avocation has its conventions
these days. The hod carriers will con
vene In New York on Sept. 5, and 150 men
will parade the streets with hods filled
with brick aud mortar, and perhaps they
will smash a patent hod elevator or two
before their frolic is over.
The Texas papers are beginning to won
der what the government is going to al
low for the Fort Worth “International’’
Exhibition of 1887. It is probable that
once in ten years will be about as often as
the government will want to invest in the
pumpkin show business.
It is strange that every day or two the
newspapers report the marriage of a
ballet girl to some actor or supernumer
ary in this country, when the English
aristocrats are almost all pining for the
fair charmers. Ballet girls appear to be
at a premium over the water.
John Mulligan (whether related to the
letter man is not known), of New York,
while drinking with a party ot friends in
a barroom Sunday evening, raised his
glass and exclained, “I’ll bet my life
Blaine is elected.” He fell dead before
the glass reached his lips. It won’t do to
''Jpct oa Blaine this year.
It is now being reported through the
land that President ArthuiB*wbile he em
ploys a manicure, shaves himself. Sup
pose there are no mute barbers in Wash
ington and he doesn’t want to be condoled
with every day about the Chicago busi
ness.
It is to be regretted that Mary Ander
son was unsophisticated enough to go all
the way to Verona to see Juliet’s tomb. If
she had been folly posted about European
antiquities of that kind she could Hhve
had a Juliet’s tomb to be carried around in
a bonnet-box built to order. It is feared
she also failed to find “Two Gentlemen of
Verona.”
Senator Bayard has uine daughters aud
three sons. It would delight the heart of
every true patriot to see the White House
occupied by such a man as Bayard, and to
hear the corridors resound with the songs
and prattle of childroa. Asa representa
tive of the great American industry of
populating the country let Bayard be
nominated and elected.
The defense by Gen. Logan of the /uni
land grab was not very complete or con
vincing, it seems. It may be that there
was no actual violation of law in the
matter, but it is yet asserted that Gen.
JLogan not only attempted to “corral” the
Zuni lands into his family before and after
the President’s order, but has not given
up the efTort to recover them to this day.
A Kentucky man has discovered that a
poultice madsof red puccoon roots is a sure
cure tor a rattle-euake bite. The straigest
thing about the remedy is that it was dis
covered in the State which is the natural
home of the old reliable Bourbon snake
medicine. Kentuckians have b6en known
to get snake bit on purpose so that they
could have the pleasure of taking the
old antidote.
The Georgia Horticultural Society,
which holds its ninth annual session at
Macon on the -*9th and 30th days of this
month, is anxious that there shall be a
full attendance of all the fruit growers
and horticulturists of the State. The
object of the society is excellent, and it
has already been productive of great good.
Ample arrangements have been made for
the accommodation of visitors.
The exodus to Europe is not retarded
by the cholera scarce, to judge from the
crowds that sailed from New York on
Saturday’s 6teamers. Five boats sailed
with full compliments of passengers. It
the 40,000 American tourists now In Eu
rope should be quarantined by the United
States and not allowed to return for a
year or two it would give them a little
more than they want of Europe.
There is aid to be a greater anxiety
than ever in Germany among the young
men to get away from the country to
avoid military duty. Over 15,000 persons
have already been convicted and sen
tenced this year for attempting to emi
grate. Perhaps if Bismarck would feed
his voung soldiers on pork and corn bread
they would be more patriotic. Potatoes
ami . bull beef is a poor diet for men to
drill or fight on.
Bold Ben Butler captured a part of the
Cleveland boom in Chicago Sunday night.
A speech being demanded of him he tried
to make himself heard from the stoop of
the ladies’ entrance of the Palmer House,
but failed. He then entered the house,
and going into an open parlor spoke from
the window to the throng in the street.
The parlor was the private reception room
of Daniel Manning, of New York. Butler
happened to stand, while speaking, imme
diately under a life-size portrait ot
Grover Cleveland. One of Manning’s
lieutenants attempted to expostulate with
the intruder, but in vain. Butler’s body
guard would not allow him to be disturbed.
|o Manning’s man tendered them the free
use* of the room until Butler finished his
opewlt.
TV Unit Rule Quest ion Settled.
The convention yesterday settled the
unit rule question against Tammany by a
pretty decisive majority. The debate pro
duced some excitement but apparently no
ill-feeling. It is now determined beyond
all dispute that the entire 71 votes
of New York will be cast for
Cleveland. This victory ought to help
Cleveland greatly, and perhaps it
will. There ‘is, however, a growing
doubt among Southern and U estern
delegates about Cleveland’s strength in
Nea : York. The convention doesn’t want
to make a mistake, and it certainly
doesn’t want to nominate a New York
man with the idea of carrying New York
unless it is pretty certain that be can do
wbat is expected of him. Tbe state
ment is being made with great i>om
liveness and urged with apparently strong
arguments tlmt Cleveland is not as likely
to carry New York as several of the other
candidates. These arguments may pre
vent Cleveland from getting the required
two-thirds majority. If the tide turns
against him it is probable that
it will run in favor of Bay
ard. It is not improbable that the
convention will finally conclude that the
experience of the last quarter of a cen
tury teaches that the best man to
nominate is a clean Democratic states
man with an excellent record, and that in
hunting simply for the most available
candidate the risk of making a mistake
is too great to be assumed.
Kelly at Chicago.
There appears to be a good deal of bit
ter feeling against John Kelly among the
Cleveland supporters at Chicago. It is
true that Kelly has been troublesome at
national conventions and conventions of
his own State for a good many years. He
controls a very large vote in the strong
hold of the Democratic party in New
York, viz.,, in New York city. He
understands the full value of
this vote and he handles it
for all that it is worth. That the Cleve
land supporters in New York should as
sail Kelly in the bitterest terms is to be
expected, because he interferes with their
plans; but it is a question whether those
outside ot New York, who are only anx
ious for the nomination of the man who
promises to poll the largest vote, should
feel any animosity towards Kelly. He does
nothing more than explain tbe situation
as he understands it. It is true that
he is trying to prevent the nomination of
Cleveland because he ia opposed to him on
personal grounds, but is it not also true
that he could not control the Tammany
vote for the ticket if Cleveland was nomi
nated? Kelly caa control Tammany
when he leads in the direction of Tam
many’s interests, but he cannot direct
the vote of the society into any channel
that he pleases. His utteranees at Chi
cago, therefore, warn the party
what it may expect if Cleveland
is nominated. He not only
s(leaks for Tammany, but ho points out
the hostility to Cleveland which exists
among the laboring classes in New York.
The convention may ignore Kelly, but it
will have to give him the credit oi stating
facts plainly, il a little bluntly. He has
put it in possession of reliable informa
tion respecting Cleveland’s weakness in
New York—a State that the Democrats
must carry to be successful. If it nomi
nates Cleveland, therefore, in spite of Kel
ly, it will do so with its eyes open. An
other view of Kelly is that he is
a chronic kicker and disturber, and that
he not only wants to boss the Democrats
of New York city but also the party of
the entire country. This view naturally
arrays the convention against him, and
encourages the belief that he ought to be
dealt with as if he and his pretensions de
served very little consideration. As the
convention is aiming to name a ticket
that will be successful, would it not be
well for it to satisfy itsell about
Cleveland’s reputed strength before mak
ing a nomination? Kelly may not be
animated by the best of motives, but he
may be well informed about Cleveland s
ability to carry New York. Cleveland’s
New York supporters, being interested
parties, are not tbe ones to look to for in
formation. It must be remembered that
the country is not demanding Cleveland.
He Has no past that calls for the admira
tion of the country. If he is nominated it
will be because the judgment of a portion
of the New York delegation has been con
sulted rather than the judgment of the
convention.
The Slate Fair.
The premium list of the Georgia State
fair, which will be opened at Macon Oc
tober 27 next, and will continue one week,
has been issued. The list has been made
up with great care, skill and judgment.
Attention has been given to about every
thing that will likely be exhibited. The
premiums are not only' well worth com
peting for, but are calculated to encour
age competition. There is no necessity
for saying a ward about tbe man
agement of the fair. It is
composed of gentlemen who are widely
known and who possess every qualifica
tion necessary to make the enterprise a
success. A deeper interest is felt ia the
fair this year than usual. It is under
stood that many of the exhibits will be
prepared with the view of senditfg them
to the cotton centennial at New Orleans
after they have served their purpose at
Macon. It may be reasonably expected,
therefore, that the Macon fair will
present the choicest of everything
that the State produces. The
farm, the mine, the forest and <be factory
will each contribute its share. But be
cause it is the purpose of some to make
Macon only a halting place, as it were,
on their way to the greater tair at New
Orleans, those who have no such purpose
should not be discouraged from doing
what they can to help along the State en
terprise. Georgia is as capable of making
as fine an exhibit as any State in the
Union, and the fair at Macon in October
ought to surpass all previous State fairs.
There is a probability that when the
expeditions now exploring in Alaska re
turn, there will be a rush to that region
that will equal if not exceed the California
craze of thirty-five years ago. The coast
and rivers of the territory are said to
teem with fish, the hills and mountains to
be filled with minerals, while the forests
contain almost inexhaustible supplies of
timber apd fur-bearing animals. Alaska
is so far off, however, that men will have
to possess some means to get there, and
instead of taking the overland trail, its
pioneers will be carried by rail and
steamer to the portals of the territory. It
requires a pretty adv enturesome spirit to
induce a man to tear loose from civiliza
tion and go to Alaska in search of “Dame
Fortune’s golden smiles,” but there are
plenty who will do so.
There are some very Wicked delegates
at the Chicago Convention. A truthful
correspondent says that when the Ohio
delegation arrived at the Pa.mer House
a Flower worker softly whispered to one
of the delegates, “How does your delega
tion stand?” “Three for harmony and
forty-three for hell,” was the prompt re
ply. There was no occasion for such
strong language, but the Buckeyes had
been worried to such an extent by John
McLean and other Ohio leaders that they
were glad of an opportunity, doubtless,
to show the state of their feelings.
The broad smile that wrinkled the face
of the Senate when the nomination ot the
diminutive and youthlul Frank Sperry
was announced as the appointee to the
vacant Associate Justiceship ot Dakota
induced the President to hastily witht
draw the nomination of that ambitious
gentleman, and to appoint him Receiver
of Public Moneys at Bismarck, in the
same Territory. Y'oung Sperry is not to
be blamed for aiming high.
It has been suggested that if Jay Gould
should become Secretary of the Treasury
he could make fifty-two Black Fridays
every year. If Blaiue should chance to
be elected it would probably serve the in
terests of Gould to have a wicked partner
as Secretary of the Treasury. This part
ner could set the financial pitfalls and
Jay could drive the people into them.
An exchange says that one of the re

Th® TArifif ItufcCi
The impression seems to be that a ma
jority and a minority report on the tariff
will be presented to the convention. The
committee which is charged with drafting
the platform appears to be made up of
three clearly defined factions. One fac
tion is composed of protectionists, one of
tariff-for-revenue only men and one of men
who have no settled convictions on the
tariff, and who want to report a meaning
less and ambiguous tariff resolution. The
protectionists will, of course, demand
at least incidental protection, and the
straddlers will want a resolution which
will look both ways—towards protection
and a tariff for revenue only. The tariff
for-revenue-only men will doubtless in
sist that the party shall stand by its
record. It is difficult to see how the party
can ignore the platforms of 1876 and 1880
and the action of thg party in the House
last winter. The party is committed to a
tariff solely for revenue, and ior the con
vention to declare for anything else
would be to admit that the position of
the Republican party has been and is
right, and that the position of tbe Demo
cratic party has all along been
wrong. For the party to aban
don its position on the tariff would
be nothing more nor less than aid
ing the Republicans to win the
Presidential contest. In the face of its
record the Democratic party can make no
concessions to the protectionists that
will be regarded as sincere by the people.
Concessions of that kind will be a move
ment backward, and while they will win
no Republican votes they will alienate
many ot the staunchest Democrats. If
two reports on the tariff resolution are
mad#, the contest on the floor of the
convention will be protracted perhaps,
and bitter. It ia thought that the major
ity is in favor of the tariff declaration
that appeared in the platforms of 1876
and 1880, but as the disposition appears
to be to please everybody, It is not cer
tain that a backward step with respect to
the tariff will not be taken.
Lulu Hurst gave an exhibition of her
powers at Wallack’s Theatre, New York,
Saturday to a company of invited guests.
She performed the same feats that she per
formed in this city. Nobody thought that
there was any trickery in her perform
ances, but the doctors disagreed respect
ing the source of her power. Some
thought her simply a very strong girl.
Others attributed her power to the princi
ple of suggestion. Amongthe latter num
ber was Dr. William A. Hammond, the
well known New York physician. He said:
The power which Miss Hurst claims to
possess is nothing new, and the fact that
multitudes may be simultaneously im
pressed with the same belief is no guaran
tee that tbe belief is founded on reality.
Miss Hurst succeeds solely by the prin
ciple of suggestion acting on tbe mind of
the individual. Outside the realm of
mathematics I don’t deny that anything
is possible, but the principle of sugges
tion is a well-known force. Miss Hurst
is probably a strong woman, too, and
knows how to use her strength. There’s
a good deal in that. But as to the prin
ciple ot suggestion, let me tell you.
Some time ago I performed an experiment
myself. I took a small Japanese table,
weighing about a pound and a half, and
placed it in the corner there in the presence
of a young man of a highly nervous or
ganization, and hence well fitted to be
acted upon by the force of suggestion.
•Now,’ I said to him seriously, ‘l’m going
to make this table so heavy you cannot
raise it.’ I placed the ends of my fingers
of both hands on the table, and stood there
some minutes. The young man watched
me with great interest. When I saw that
his attention was concentrated I removed
my hands and told him that the
table was fastened to the floor. He took
hold of it with both hands and appeared
to be making a violent effort to raise it
from the floor, but he could not. I saw
that instead of lifting, as he really believed
he was. the young man was in reality
pressing with all his might toward the
floor. Finally he broke the table by push
ing. Then he desisted and asked me to
lighten the table. I made a few passes,
told him ffe could raise it easily, and be
did without appreciable exertion. There
it all is. When you thought you were
trying to hold the umbrella in Miss
Hurst’s bands still, you were in reality
moving it yourself. That’s my opinion.”
The New York Evening Telegram's ac
count of Tilden’s feeble health has already
been contradicted. The traditional friend
has made this statement in regard to the
Sage: “The ex-Governor received visi
tors all of the morning of the Fourth and
went about his spacious grounds at Grey
stone with them for nearly two hours.
This morning I saw him about. He at
tended to some business and to his corre
spondence and tooK a long ride in the
afternoon. Mr. Tilden is a great reader,
often extending this occupation to a late
hour In the evening. He goes out almost
daily in his yacht and seems to be improv
ing in health rather than otherwise.”

How to be Made Responsible.
Washington Post {Pern.).
The only way in which the national Demo

failure of the House to redeem its pledge is
for the Democratic National Convention to
put the seal of its condemnation ou the 155
faithful Representatives by giving its benedic
tion to the 42 who went over to the enemy in
the hour of trial.
About the Gospel of Repairs,
Hew York Uerald ( Ind.).
Mr. Chandler should be more careful, as we
cannot afford to be deprived ot our navy. He
should at once have every vessel hauled upon
land, nut undercover and carefully preserved,
where they will not be subject to the insidious
attacks of the insolent Britisher. The ex
pense involved would not be large, as the size
of the navy is quite moderate. But something
should be done to protect that Roach-Robeson
navy which will perpetuate to admiring pos
terity the beauties of the “gospel of repairs.”
Knott Not a Prophet.
Pitiladelpkia Ledger ( Ind .).
On Proctor Knott's famous map of the uni
verse, of which Duluth was the centre, the
rich grazing countrv of the Plegan Indians
was represented, aud the|orator, in prophetic
vision, saw them driving their cattle into the
stork yards ot Duluth. It was a very funny
speech, but in a short time events have shown
that, in spite of his wit, I’roetor Knott is no
prophet, Duluth has grown even beyond
what he considered his wild imaginings, and
the Piegau Indians, instead of acting at dro
vers for that famous city, have been driven
away from their rich grazing lauds, and are
reported to lie starving to death, under gov
ernment auspices, somewhere in Montana.

000. an increase of 300 per cent, over the
amount manufactured in any previous year.
Last year the number manufactured exceeded
750,(00,000. Of this number 40,000,100 were
exported, and tbe remainder oonsumed in this
country. The revenue derived by the govern

A German was recently asked to repeat the
following extract from the Bible: “An angel
came down from heaven aud took a live coal
from off the altar.” He attempted to do so,

a live colt by der tail of his breeches, and
jerked him his collar out.”—A rkansaw Trav

jewelry and splendid silk dresses that the
thieves got. Strange that notning of the kind
ever happens to us. The Robinsons will hold

AN EAGLE AT CHICAGO.
It is Located at the Kansas Headquar
ters.
The corriders of the Palmer'House are
labyrinthine, and guests, confused by tbe
crowd which fills them, wander about by
the hour like countrymen in Boston look
ing for their rooms. A great live eagle
was brought into the corridors on a two
foot platform. The man bearing the plat
form vainly inquired the route to the Kan
sas headquarters. The eagle belonged
there, and its escort was thoroughly con
fused. The royal bird became restless,
uttered a shrill cry, spread, its pinions,
sailed through the corriders aud alighted
tail first on the threshold of the McDonald
headquarters. Tom Feulon, of the Kansas
delegation, tried to corral the bird, and
the eagle snatched his necktie. There
was great tribulation and a greater crowd.
Suddenly the crowd scattered. The eagle
was tearing down the corridor. Itchased
a blue hen’s chicken into the Butler head
quarters before it was captured and
turned over to Gov..Glick. It was then
chained to the platform and left in the
rooms of the Kansas delegation. For
three hours it sat on its jierch without
winking. The stare was finally broken
by the entrance of David B. Hill, of Elmi
ra. He was doing a little missionary
work on behalf or Cleveland. The eagle
winked repeatedly and cried, “Glickl
Glick!”

Correspondence of the Morning Hews.
Brunswick, Ga m July 7.—The state
ment in my last letter as to the closing
down of the mills on Bt. Simon’s Island is
susceptible of amendment. The mills are
now owned by Dodge, Meigs & Cos., not
the Georgia Land and Lumber Company,
and only one of the mills will be shut
down, which is done to take advantage oi
the dull season to reset the boilers, and to
make necessary repairs. The lower mill
will continue to work, and their regular
shipments will be made as usual. Both
milU will probably be in full blast again
within sixty days.
•On Friday last three of the crew of the
British bark Eliza Everett, discharging
ballast at quarantine, deserted the vessel
and waded through the marsh and creeks
to tbe city, in violation of the quarantine
rules. Considerable excitement was cre
ated. by the effort to capture them, and
different rumors were set afloat. They
were Virginia negroes, and, as they were
last seen" about six miles north of the
city walking along the railroad, it is sup
posed they are “gwine home.” There
was no danger from these men, as the
vessel was healthy and from a healthy
port, but it shows what might happen.
True, no infected vessel would be allowed
in the harbor, but it is another argument
in favor of changing the quarantine sta
tion, which the Council has decided to do,
to a poiut that will prohibit any commu
nication with tbe city.

The Manhattan Land and Improvement

Logan’s Fine Metaphor.
When tbe soldiers.and sailors serenaded
John A. Logan in Washington about ten
days ago, says the Chicago Eews, the
Republican candidate for Vice-President
made a speech, in the course of which tho
following remarkable sentence occurred:
“Twenty-three years ago, gentlemen,
when dread war raised Its wrinkled front
throughout the land, many of you were
standing with one foot upon the portal of
manhood.” We venture to say nobody
but the famous word-painter of Illinois
would presume to depict a large number
of persons standing with one foot
upou a portal. It may strike the careless
reader that not very many people could
stand with one foot on a portal or any
thing else; but to us who have lived in
Illinois, and who know what the Illinois
foot is, the metaphor used by Gen. Logan
seems strangely apt and beautiful.
