Herrt-shoff, the torpedo boat builder, is perfectly blind, yet be models every boat that is built at his shop. The Congressional Convention today may begin to look around for dark horses. There were indications last night that there are plenty of them. It is a dull week in New Y'ork when the President of someone of the one-horse Republics of Central or South America does not arrive in that city. The Queen is said to be very anxious for the early publication of Lord Beacons field's papers. It is feared that they con tain an extended and able tribute to the memory o( John Brown. President Arthur has been digging bait for his usual summer fishing excursion. The first Chicago Convention surprised him so that he swallowed all the worms he dug earlv in the season. Blaine’s supporters need more cam paign poetry. If Arthur is really loyal to his party, to par don a dozen or so talented poets out of the Federal prisons at once. The Irish-American and Boston Pilot , two of the best Irish papers in the coun try, are confident of Democratic success next November, and the whole country joins them in that confidence. While the Massachusetts people are erecting monuments to the witches who were cremated alive in the old colony times, they might drop a tear or two in honor of the departed glory of the late G. Fristne Hoar. Chiropodists are quite successful as suitors, as has been demonstrated by the fact that one from Richmond had a wife In every citv he visited. When they get down on their knees the women always acknowledge the corn. Secretary Chandler is having a nice picnic at thegovernment expense on the Tallapoosa while he is nominally inspect ing some boat shops along the New Eng land coast. He is accompanied by a large party ol ladies and gentlemen. Louisville is getting more particular than ever about the display of the nude in art. No show picture that displays a female neck (giraffes excepted) more than a yard and a half long will now be allowed to be posted in that city. The Mudir of Dongola ought to go to writing regularly for some of the metro politan journals. He seems to be gifted with the peculiar line of talent that has made Eli l’erkins, Gath, Joe Mulbat ton and a host of other correspondents famous. Editor McClure, oh the Philadelphia * Times, has been advising Cleveland, through the columns of his paper, respect ing the kind of a letter of acceptance he ought to write. There are one or two other editors who are puffed up with the idea that they turn the crank which moves the world. It Is stated that Dr. McDonald, of Cali fornia, the most prominent candidate for the Presidency before the Pittsburg Pro hibition Convention, will contribute a million dollars to the campaign fund in case he gets the nomination. If Ben But ler wants this nomination he had better hid high and pretty quick. The New York Graphic says there is ▼ery little reason to doubt the proposition that Butler proposes to elect Blaine. Perhaps, however, the General will de cide to let his own funeral go on without any serious kicking, as he, as bad as he is, •would not like to be buried in the same grave with the gentleman from Maine. It is to be hoped that the correspoud ence opened with President Arthur by the Queen will be kept within due bounds. Whatever we may have said against our Chet, we think too mueh of him to have him throw himself away on a leap year proposal from either Victoria or Beatrice. He is a great deal better man than the Grand Duke of Hesse. The Republican papers have been pub lishing bogus dispatches to the effect that a number of prominent Irish Democrats in Easton, Pa., would not vote for Cleve land. and that sixty of them had joined a Republican club. It turns out that the club named only has a dozen members, and that they have acted with the Repub licans for several years. It is now rumored that Lieut. Greely will go on the lecture stage when he gets OTer his chilly feeling and the gnawing at his stomach. Congress was sure to make some mistake about that relief business. The bill authorizing the expedition ought to have contained a proviso that Lieut. Schley should obligate Greely not to lec ture before taking him off the ice. Mulligan, of the celebrated Blaine let ters notoriety, is said to be living a quiet life in Boston. Whil? the friends of the Republican candidate for the Presidency are getting up certificates to prove his good character, they ought not to over look Mulligan. There is nothing like get ting bottom facts, especially where a question of veracity is involved. The popular science cranks may as well take out. their pencils and go to calcu lating the age of the world again. In boring an artesian well at West Foint. Miss., the other day, a poplar tree, in a perfect state of preservation, was struck at a depth of 550 feet. West Point is aituated in the celebrated prairie region westoftheTombigbee river, and the tree must have been very near the level of the The Popular Science Monthly, having stated that dugs lose their power of bark ing at great heights, the Burlingtou JUawkeye says it is a good plan to tie your dog in the garret or swing him to the limb of the tallest tree you can find. Dogs also lose their power of barking and biting at great depths, so the better plan ia to tie a stone to the neck of your troublesome canine and nut him to rest in the deepest river in your neighbor hood. This is a certain remedy for the eviL It has been suggested that Gen. Butler exercise his talents in the direction of resurrecting the old Whig party. He Alreadv has three or four different parties nd piatforms to adapt himaelf to, and besides, the Atlanta squad of white Re publicans appears to have monopolized what ia left of the name of the old W hig M rtr. It is about time some of our noble "old Whigs were getting an injunc tion against the use of an honored party me in almost hyphenated conjunction 11 a disgraced ‘•entitlement” ot the uarty of 11 aud and eormjpimn, ' . _ ' ; ' ' • f ', .. as* The Bolting Republican*. The bolting Republicans are in earnest in opposing Blaine. They do not mean to content themselves with simply protest ing against hit election and with relusing to vote for him. They propose to make an active canvass against him. They in clude some of the ablest and most Influen tial men of the Republican party. As the campaign progresses their strength will increase. They will influence to a large extent the Inde pendent vote, and as their position becomes more clearly understood there will be accessions to their ranks from the Republican party. The address read at their New Y'ork conference on Tuesday states their position very fully. They do not intend to abandon their party. For Congressmen and State officers, where the nominations suit them, they propose to act with the Republicans. They raise the standard ot revolt only against the national ticket. It cannot be charged that any of them are influenced by mer cenary motives. If Cleveland is elected it is not probable that one of them will get an office. He will not have places enough to satisfy the demand of his own party. The bolting Republicans are undoubtedly sincere. They can Dot conscientiously support Blaine and Logan, and they have the courage to say so. The position they have taken empha sizes the issues on which the Democrats are conducting the campaign. The peo ple will have it pressed home on them, time and again before the campaign closes, that honest methods in the admin istration of the government and honest men in the offices are absolutely necessary to the stability of tree institutions and the prosperity of the country. The Republi cans will try to avoid the questions which involve the wrong-doing of their party and the characters of their candidates, but they will not be permitted to do so. They will discuss the tariff and cry out against alleged lawlessness in the South, but they will not be able to make the people overlook the tact that they are called on to decide whether or not they shall have an honest government administered by honest officials.. The revolt in the Republican party is bound to be one of the great features of the campaign. Its progress will be watched with constantly growing in terest. It is already formidable in New York, Connecticut and Massachusetts. It is certain to contribute a great deal towards helping the Democrats carry New Y'ork and Connecticut, and it may even give them Massachusetts, though that is extremely doubtful. The Democratic party, however, ought not to place any dependence on the Republican bolters. It ought to conduct the canvass as if it expected no help from them. The Convention. The Congressional Convention of this district Las begun balloting, but as yet there is no indication when it will make a nomination. The twenty-third ballot yesterday left the convention divided about as it was when the first ballot was taken. It may be that a choice will be made to-day, although there is no par ticular reason for thinking so other than that the delegates, by the time they .take twenty-five or thirty more ballots, will see’ the uselessness of con tinuing to divide up their votes among four candidates, giving to each enough to prevent any one from getting the requisite two-thirds majority. With out questioning the merits or claims of any one of the candidates from the country, we have expressed the hope that the nomination would be given to this county. Savannah has some very im portant interests before Congress, and while any representative, doubtless, that the party may select would look alter these interests diligently and wisely, we cannot help thinking that a Savannah man would meet with more success id looking after them because of his better understanding of them. Of course, other sections of the district have interests which must be looked after, but they are not as great as those of this city at this time. We hope, then-lore, that the convention In making a nomination will give the claims of this county all the con sideration to which they are entitled. Dudley and Ihe Prohibitionists. Commissioner of Pensions Dudley, it seems, did not exhibit hi 9 usual astute ness at Pittsburg when he attempted to influence the delegates to the Prohibition Convention to indorse Blaine and Logan. Gen. Dudley has the reputation of being an unusually bright politician, but even the brightest and shrewdest politicians sometimes make mis takes. That the Blaine managers seek the help of the Prohibitionists shows how desperate they consider their situation to be. It the Prohibitionists nominate a separate ticket, which in all probability they will. Republican su premacy in several Western States will be endangered. With a Prohibition ticket in the field it is not at all prob able that the Republicans can carry In diana. It is not a matter of wonder therefore that Gen. Dudley is anxious to have the Prohibition ists lend the Republicans a helping hand. If Indiana goes Democratic his public career will come to a full stop for awhile. But would an indorsement by the Prohibitionists help Blaine? Would it not help to drive from him the anti- Prohibitiou vote? That is a matter for the Republican leaders to consider, and as the pi ospects of the Republican party are rather gloomy they can hardly neglect to consider any matter that bears upon the canvass. The Prohibitionists claim that they will poll somewhere near 1,000,- 000 votes. If they do at least two-thirds of them will be Republican. The Prohibi tion party is pregnant with danger to Blaine. Avery sad story comes from London. The King of the Maoris has a button in his stomach, and he does not appear to be making any progress in digesting it. Able physicians refuse to give an opinion respecting the effect ot the button on the King’s digestive apparatus. The situa tion is painful to contemplate. With a buttoned up digestion the King is in a bad fix. The story of the way the button got into the King’s stomach is very interesting. It may be well to state that he is in England to get redress for the land grabbing outrages of the English colonists in New Zealand. Since he has been in London he has shown a great de sire to see everything that has anything mysterious about it. He was invited to visited the celebrated mind reader, Mr. Bishop. He accepted and was one of quite a numerous party. Mr. Bishop requested him to conceal some object, fix his 'mind upon it, and said that he (Bishop) blindfolded would discover it at once. King Tawhaio selected a huge button and concealed it in his mouth. When it was announced that the King was ready fot the test, Mr. Bishop at once declared where and what the object was. The King was so sur prised that he opened his mouth quickly, at the same time throwing back his head. The button slipped into his throat, and as the doctors.couldn’t get it out, they forced it down into his stomach. The King is now more anxious to find someone who can fish the button out than he is to know more of mind reading. The people of Boston and Hartford have just discovered that watermelons are easily digested when taken a9 the first course at the breakfast table. The best time to eat watermelons is about half an hour beiore dinner—then they never trou ble the digestion, and it has even been hinted by good old Georgia housewives that when eaten at that time the appetites of the eaters lor regular dinner are hap pily curtailed. This is advantageous both to guests and hosts, and, besides, the mel ons are more enjoyable then, especially if they have been kept over night on ice or in a spring-house. Blaine and Logan are entitled to the credit of changing letters of acceptance into stump speeches. Blaine’s letter con tained about 6,000 words, and Logan’s a thousand or two less. Lincoln’s first letter of acceptance contained about 100 words and his second less than 200. It took about two minutes to read Grant’s letters. But nobody doubts.that both Grant and Lincoln said all that there was any oc casion for saying. Old Time Stump Speaking. It has been proposed to abolish cam pain stump speaking altogether. In fact the newspaper letter baa been usurping the place of speeches for a good while, and in many parts of the country the stamp scarcely exists, even in name. This is to be regretted, especially among Georgians, who remember with pardon able pride the old-time tournaments of mind, in the lists of which appeared Troup, Clarke, Johnson, Toombs. Hill, Stephens, and a host or other men who were giants in those days. People have a pardonable desire to see and hear their leaders, and while the daily pres# reaches probably a hundred persona now where It reached one forty years ago, people are not much more thoroughly posted on the great polit ical questions than they were then. Men who read the newspaper articles of those days had facts and arguments indelibly impressed on their minds by the public discussions, and besides they were given an opportunity to see just how their lead ers met their opponents in debate. It is claimed that the standard of statesman ship was higher in the ante helium days than it has been since, and if this claim is well founded, no doubt the abandonment of the old-time canvass has had mueh to do with it. Men were then judged more by their real merits, and did not gain advancement so much by the influence of powerful triends or the tricks of petty politicians in cau cuses and conventions. The canvass of their counties by young men ot talent fitted them for wider fields in the Con gressional and State campaigns. While there was necessarily a good deal of bom bast and spread-eagle oratory, a man to oc cupy a high position was obliged by study of history, law. and general literature to acquire at least a creditable degree of culture, and to display some considerable ability to rise into prominence. Perhaps there was too much talking in the legislative bodies of those days. The same is true of the present; and if we are to be deluged with talk why not have it flavored more with the spice of reason and adorned with the graces of oratory? If really talented men speak the patience of the country will not be overtaxed. It is the schools of ambitious small fry that fill the records with commonplace compo sitions and sophomoric efforts, and these would be left at home or awed into silence it our legislative halls were well supplied with statesmen and debaters. One point not to be overlooked is the grand barbecues and political meetings which were one of ihe pleasant leaturesof life in Georgia !n the old days. A regular system of stealing the bodies of infants has been exposed at Randall’s Island, N. Y. It appears that certain undertakers have for some time been in the habit of taking the bodies of children entrusted to them for burial, and for which service they had been paid by private parties, to the public cemete ries, where they were interred as paupers at the expense of the county. Several instances of the kind were brought to light lately. In some cases the costly clothing and caskets containing the re mains were stolen by the undertakers. If the charges made against these under takers are true they 6hould be visited with the most condign punishment. It would seem that nothing short of tar and feath ers and the lash would meet the demands of justice. It is said that Lulu llursFs entertain ments in New York netted her father $4,000. That is considerably more, per haps, than Mr. Hurst has made out of his Georgia tarm during the last ten years. It is also said that the slender young man who introduces Lulu to her audiences has fallen in love with the Wonder and wants to marry her. The old gentleman, how ever, thinks that while Lulu is drawing in the shekels so rapidly they had better delay the matrimonial part of the pro gramme. It is stated that New Y'ork theatrical managers have organized a ring to re duce salaries of actors during the coming season. This reduction cannot be laid to the charge of cheap foreign labor while Patti and Nilsson, and all the rest of the stars, want from $2,000 to $4,000 a night. The Bay State Club of Boston has been cordially indorsing Cleveland and Hend ricks. Among the most telling speeches were those of Patrick Maguire and Michael Fitzgerald, and yet the Republi can papers talk about the Irish giving their support to Blaine. CURRENT COMMENT. • No Hiding Place for Fraud. Xew York Evening Post (Ind. Hep.) There is no ranc.lie or other hiding place in the world in which a man can wait for Blaine and the Mulligan letters to “blow over,” for they will never blow over until justice be done. We Don’t Want the Earth. Boston Post (Pern.). Gov. Hoadly and his law part ner have both expressed the opinion that Cleveland will carry Ohio. Well, now really, we don’t want the earth. In fact, we would be perfectly satisfied with 250 electoral votes for Cleve land. But if Ohio wants to jump on to the Democratic triumphal car no present occu pant will want to push her off. Not Democratic Taxation. St. Louis Republican (Dem.). The Democratic party does not believe in levving taxes primarily for the benefit of one cla## at the ex|>ense of others, whether such taxes be levied uuder the guise of protection or not. Whenever there can be a test of opinion on this subject with all considerations of policy and party exigencies eliminated, the minoritv which dissents from this view will be found to be quite inconsiderable. Which Horn of the Dilemma? Xevc York World (Dem.). It is really about time the Blaine people should reach some definite understsndn g as lo whether they arc standing on the Chicago platform or Jingo BLinc’s letter. The plat form says: “The Republican party pledges it self to reduce the surplus.” Blaine's “high water mark” letter savs we will not reduce the t-urp'us. “Not a dollar has been wasted,” and we will take eare not a dollar shall be wasted if we once get our Mulligan fingers on the magnificent fund. Dishonest and Corrupt Candidates. Baltimore Sun (Dem.). There have been persons nominated and elected whose political abilities were so small as to lead some of their own party friends to thiuk and say, as Webster did of the Whig nomination in 1848, that it was not fit to l>e made. But never before this time have a reallv considerable number of his party ad herents publicly declared their conviction that the candidate was dishonest and corrupt. That circumstances should have existed which have given it color among those who, from past affiliations and party sympathies, would prefer to be friendly rather than critical judges, is a cause for regret, whether the belief be itself well or ill-founded. ITEMS OF INTEREST. OF Washington life it is said that nearly everybody either boards or keeps boarders. Prohibitionists auctioned off the last glass of beer found within the limits of the town of Bonaparte, la., for $1 25. - Db. John Chatman (of Paris), who went to Southampton during the cholera epidemic of 1965, produced astonishing recoveries from the pulseless state of collapse by the simultaneous application of external colu and heat to the body. A pretty little private steamboat, once the property of Empress Eugenie, is now doing service on the Havel, near Potsdam, having become the property of Councillor of Com merce Conrad, the owner of one of the finest Tillas on the shores of the Wann Lake. The Irish peasantry are noted for their beautiful hands. Whether potatoes, poor liv ing, bog-trotting and damp climate improve the hand we know not, but the Irish lass has a well-formed anil a pretty hand They area smatl-hanued people, no matter how much they wash, iron, cook or dig; the English, on the'contrary, are a people of big knuckles; so are the Scotch. French newspapers give piquant points to their assaults on the Gladstone policy in Egypt. One of them says the flight of the English soldiers at Tel-el-Kebir was only checked by the weight of gold m their knap sacks. La Prance says Gen. Gordon invited an Arab to breakfast and then amused him self by running a fork repeatedly into the body of his guest. AN English paper says that “during the first introduction of cholera into St. Petersburg in 1832 a highly respectable firm of -iron founders, emploving 500 men, informed them that all thoae who would not take a teaspoonful of powdered charcoal on entering the work* in the morning must leave their employ. What was the consequence? They did not lose a single man, when myriads were dying around them.” Bishof Warrzn, who returned recently from Mexico, was struck while traveling in thst country by the fantastic appellations of the small stores. A grocery in a room seven by twelve feet displayed the name of “The PnUosophv.” On the grog shop* may be seen the following /rank and significant titles: “The Charm* of the SedactreM,”“Tbc Birth of Venus," “The Kiss of Love,’ ‘The Toast of Bacchus, 1, “The Life Eternal/ ‘‘The Vesuvi us," “The Shipwreck.” “The Delirium Tre mens,” and ‘•The Little Hell.” Ezekiel Eads, who died recently in Ath ens, N, Y., aged years, was kora without ears, and had no aperture* where hit ear* should have been. He wi sale, however, to BUer sound through bis mouth, and could ar conversation that was carried on in an ordinary tone. His hair waa black at birth, but was'ioterspersed with oddlr-shaped gray spots, some ot them resembling diminutive human hands and ears. These singular mark ing* never chanced, and his black hair never turned erav. Ead* had fourteen children. The oldest, aged 45. has not a gray hair in hi# head, his hair being aa black as coal, while the youngest, aged 13, is as gray aa a man of 70. A novel scheme of assisted emigration, lays a London diepatch, has been started in Germany by a society composed wholly of noblemen. The society proposes to send in digent members of noble German families to Chili, where thev will have all the advantage of a fertile soil" and favorable climate, and the prospect of exchanging their landless titles for the hands of the fair senoritasof that country. Thev will be taken to Chili at the expense of the Chilian Government, which also ggrees to supply the exiles with land rree of charge, and to maintain them all in suit able stvie for one year from the date of their arrival. Ix the distant island of Malta some work men have made the notable discovery that petroleum fumes are injurious to health, a statement which they advance as a sufficient reason for demanding higher wages. There must be something in the Mediterranean air that sharpens the senses and the mental per ceptions, for such an argument has never occurred to the thousands of workers in petro leum in this country. On the contrarv. it ha# generally been considered that the fumes of petroleum, when not in excess, were effica cious in driving awav malaria and zymotic diseases. These ills of humanity are almost unknown in the oil regions, where the odor of crude oil is all-pervading. The headquarters of the gamblers in Paris is a beer shop in the Faubourg St. Denis, where, in the last fortnight in June, all the shady knights of baccarat assemble. The house looks very tidy and respectable, and no games are allowed there bnt backgammon and dominoes. Numbers who frequent this cafe are not aware that they are in a den of card sharpers. The latter," the philosophes, and their collaborators, styled in England "bon net#,” keep their appointments there, trans act their little business, and make their ar rangements for the season, without paying anv attention to the detectives, one or two of whom are always present in a disguise that never deceives those interested. A CURIOUS incident occurred at Kingston, N. Y., on Saturday afternoon last in connec tion with the severe rain and hail storm that visited that section of the Hudson Valley. Im mediately after the heavy fall of hail a son of Mayor Bray, of Kingston, went to the lawn fronting the handsome residence of that offi cial anu shoveled up three brimming pailfuls of the iev chunks, some of which were over an inch in diameter. He then placed them in a tub with an ice cream freezer, and in a short time the Mayor, his family, and a few invited guests sat dotfn and partook of several quarts of ice cream thus frozen from hailstones which fell from the sky during a midsummer shower. It is safe to say that this is the first case on record where a Mayor has feasted on ice cream made under similar circumstances. Abbas Pasha, somewhere about 1853, sent a challenge to the Jockey Club to run any number of English race horses against his Arabs for a sum not less than $50,000. The .Jockey Club is a society, and could not ac cept such a bet: but some merchants at Cairo made a bet with his son Haleem Pasha, who inherited his father's stud, which cost nearly five millions of dollars to collect and breed, to race eight miles for s2,' 00 a side. The Cairo merchants sent to Englaud and bought from l'attersall an Irish mare, Fair Nell, without a pedigree, which he had used as a park and covert hack. The race came off within two weeks of her landing in Egypt, and in the eight miles she beat the Pasna’s best Arab, over a rough, stony ground, by a full mile, doing the distance in I*4 minutes, and pulling up fresh. At a seance in Dublin, a thought reader boasted that he could find a marked pin hid by one of the audience. Several of them came forward, among whom was a confederate. The pin was hid by a Trinity student in an adjoining room, in the presence of the com mittee, among which was the confed erate. The student, suspecting this man from his looks, slvly took away the pin from its hiding place. On the return to the plat form the thought reader gazed in the hider’s face, and putting his hand to his brow, was blindfolded and Ted tlie student to the hiding place, but of course could find ny pin. Ho re turned, acknowledging his defeat, and look ing daggers at the confederate. “Now, gen tlemen/’ said the student, “I’ll undertake to say that if this ‘diviner of the human mind' will do as I tell hint half the audience, with out a single hint from me. will know where the pin is,” and, turning to ihe thought reader, he said, “sit down.” He did so. There was a yell, and jumping up, the thought reader hastily pulled from the seat of his trousers the marked pin. BRIGHT BITS.

Some person seems to regard it as wonder ful that Lulu Hurst can make an umbrella leave the owner, but any one can do the same thing if he has a chance. It would be much more wonderful if Lulu could make an um brella stay where it belongs.— Boston Post. A famous Prussian General was inspecting some military stables. “What do I see there,” he said, in tones of thunder to a Sergeant— “cobwebs?” “Yes, sir.” was the respectful replv, “we keep them there to catch .the flies and prevent their teasing the horses.”— Ex, Mai. Vernon (to the ladies, sotto voce)— “Oh. yes. it's Boffin, the awf'lly rich bone boiler; he’s-but hus-s-s-h!—he’s speaking to you.” Mr. Boffin—“How do, ladies?

Come, come, Dook—why, what a number o’ schools vou must have gone to as a boy, to be sure !” London Pun. A colored man was at police headquarters Testerdav to complain that someone had stolen his horse aud wagon off ‘he street, and to request unusual energy on the part of the police. “Oh. we’ll get the rig back in a little time. I guess,” said the offic-er. “I hone so, sah—l hope so. 1 hope you’ll git him back afore noon.” “Got a job for the afternoon?” “No, sah, but if de pusson who stole dat boss feeds him oats fur dinner, which he probably will, it’ll take me six weeks to git him back to whar he’ll relish de old straw bed agin.”— Detroit Free Press. The well-known Henry Erskine once met an acquaintance, a barris'ter, who dealt in hard words and circumlocutional sentences. Per ceiving that his ankles were tied no with a silk handkerchief, Erskine asked the cause. "Whv, my dear sir,” answered the wordy lawyer, “I was taking a romantic ramble in mv brother’s grounds, when, coming to a ga’te, I had to climb over it, by which I came in contact with the first bar,-and have grazed the epidermis of the skin, the accident being attended with a slight extravasation of blood.” “You may thank your lucky stars.” replied Erskine, “that your brother’s ‘gate’ was not so lofty as your style,’ or you must have broken your neck." A Boston editor says that Ben Butler is not onlv entitled to the votes of the people because he Is the nominee of the Greenback partv, bnt because, being the nominee, he is a true’patriot. The idea of Butler having a double claim on the suffragans reminds us of what happened in Austin last year. An unat tractive exile, accompanied by a hand organ and a child, was giving the usual street per formance. After the musician had twisted one of Beethoven's symphonies out of the ma chine, the urchin took up a collection in a tin cnp. One kind-hearted man dropped a nickel in the cnp, but the urchin said: “I vants anoder nickel.” “How so?” “Dot nickel vot you put dot cup in vos for de moosic.” “Well, why do vou claim another nickel ?” “Pecause mine fodder ish a professional peggar be eides.”— Texas Siftings.

Mr. Hendricks and Mrs. Hendricks intend to leave Indianapolis for New York this week. Rev. Samuel Longfellow expects to finish the biography of his brother, the poet, next spring. Gen. Hazen, the officer at the head of the Weather Bureau, will leave in a few days for Europe. Pierre Lorillard has built in Jersey City a library for the free use of the 3,500 opera t ves in nis employ. Ges. Booth, of the Salvation Army, intends entering London at the close of his provincial tour at the head of one hundred brass bands. The Home secretary has been appealed to to atop it, but has declined. Moses Thomas, a negro, jnst naturalized at Wilmington, Del., is a native of the west coast of Africa, and is profusely tattooed on both cheeks. His political and Presidential proclivities go without saying. Carl Schurz gives forth a card, in which he defines his attitude toward the St. Louis Westliche Post. To sum up his statement, he says that he does not own a controlling inter est in the Post, is not responsible for its con tradictory utterances, and is quite willing to sell his remaining shares of stock in the paper. Tnß officers in the signal corps and those best acquainted with Lieut. Greely express surprise that he was saved when so many others lost their lives. He was not regarded as a strong man, and the prediction was gen erally made that he would be the first to suc cumb to the hardships of arctic life. Bnt he is a determine'! man, and it is believed that his grit saved him. Dr. Rafael Zaldivar, the President of the republic of Salvador, is the lion of the Spanish Americans in New York. He arrived from Europe on Sunday. There stands guard at the door ot-his parlors in New Y’ork an object of mnch interest—a man so black that, but for the white collar encircling his neck, one could not tell where his black frock coat left off and his head began. Dr. Zaldivar is a fine-looking Central American Spaniard. His forehead ia broad and high, and above is a mass of heavy black hair, intermixed with gray. Black eyes and firm Ups are marked features of bis face. At the age of 50 his moustache is slight and black. He came to America in the political and commercial interests of s&lvador. THE OFFICEHOLDERS MUST 00. A Revolution to Come Whether Cleve lsnd or Blaine It Elected. For the first time in the history of the Republican party, says a Washington special to the Philadelphia Times, the pos sible advent of anew Republican Presi dent by election is looked forward to by Republicans and Democrats, the Ins and the outs, aa a revolution. Among Federal officeholders in Washington the proapect of Blaine is regarded in very nearly the same light as the probability of Arthur was regarded during Garfield’s protracted illness. Arthur represented that wing of the Republican party that was out of power and which had a special grievance against the wing in authority. The revo lution which was Anticipated came. It was begun immediately by the Garfield Cabinet being remanded to private life. Blaine himself was humbled and humilia ted because Blaine represented the head and front of the liberal opposition. The process of overturning what Garfield and Blaine had begun at home and abroad thus opened went briskly forward, until the new President conceived the idea that be had a chance for the Presidency from the hands of the people direct. Then the stalwart policy was suddenly changed, and stalwart councillors were cast over board and Arthur became a trimmer. The speculations thus early on foot with regard to Mr. Blaine mark out for him a radical policy, so far as the Federal pa tronage is concerned, scarcely less impor tant in its bearing on the “Ins” than would be the policy of Mr. Cleveland should he succeed Mr. Arthur instead ol Mr. Blaine. The principal objection urged against Cleveland at Chicago came from the strikers and heelers ol the Tammany class of the Democratic party, and was that Cleveland was too conservative. He would promise nothing. He was a re former and because of his well-known reputation as an anti-spoilsman he was supported by George William Curtis and the Massachusetts Republican Inde pendents. A term for Cleveland, it was alleged, would be practically, so far as patronage was concerned, another term for Arthur. This plea (for or against Cleveland, as you look at it) is quite well understood by Washington officeholders. They are inclined to look at these things from the standpoint of personal interest, the same as the Democratic spoilsmen looked at them when they opposed Cleveland at Chicago. The rank and file know they will be quite a9 safe under Cleveland as they could be under Blaine. Those who occupy the “soft snaps” are as well aware that their heads are in as much danger trom Blaine as from Cleveland. Blaine would be a revo lution because he represents the op posite of the party in power. He aud his friends were "revolutionized out of office by the very man and his friends whom Blaine will succeed. Y'ou might as well expect Colonel Tom Bayne to fix and perpetuate the Cameron dynasty in Pennsylvania, if he had the power, as to expect James G. Blaine to foster and protect the men in public office who have spent their vacations, their wind and money to decry him and defeat his Presi dential aspirations—who have triumphed over the grave of Garfield. Stick a pin here. They will have to go, They know it. It is in the atmosphere. Blaine or Cleveland will be all the same to them. Behind them stalks the headsman. VANCE .AS A JOKER. Three Anecdotes of the Popular North Carolinian. Vance, of North Carolina, is a large, heavily-built man, with a heavy gray mustache, a twinkle in his eye, and a lover of a joke that knows no limitation, says an exchange. He is an inexhaustible story teller, and he is rarely caught with out some retort or repartee at hand. A newspaper man telling him one day that he was about starting for a rather out of the way portion ol the Senator’s own State, and was asking something about the accommodation he was likely to find. “They’ll give you some ol their fried hog and etrgs,” he replied. “That’s better than nothing,” said the newspaper man. “I don’t know—l don’t know,” the Sena tor answered in a dubious tone. “I’ve tried both.” Vance was in the Southern army, and is a little lame as the result. He was in one of the battles before Richmond, where the fighting wa9 particularly hot. A start ed rabbit appeared for a moment on a fallen tree, and then, at a murderous discharge of musketry, darted like an ar row for the urderbrush. General Vance had noticed him, and as he flew for cover the General called out, in a manner that left no doubt as to his absolute sincerity: “Go it, cotton-tail! If 1 hadn’t a reputa tion to maintain I would run too.” One ot the liveliest campaigns that was ever carried on in North Carolina was the one in which Vance and Judge Settle competed for the Governorship. They carried on a joint debate. All the white Democrats turned out to hear Vance, and all ihe colored Republicans to hear Settle. On one occasion, at the conclusion of the speaking, Vance was informed that there were some charming young ladies who desired to testify their devotion to the Democratic party by kissing the Democratic candidate for Gov ernor. Nothing loath, Vance descended from the platform and kissed a dozen or so young beauties from the Old North State, when he paused long enough to turn around toward his competitor and shout: “Settle, I’m kissing my women; you kiss yours!” On account of their race and previous condition of servitude, Settle did not kiss the feminine Republi cans. BEAUTIFYING THE CAPITOL. The Marble Terrace and a Grand Stair way Which Will Outrival Anything of Its Kind. Workmen are now busily digging down aud hauling away the beautiful terrace which slopes up to the front of the north or Senate wing of the capitol, preparatory to continuing the marble wall which is to be built entirely around the wings and west front, says a Washington special to the Philadelphia Times. The embank ment will be dug away close up to the capitol wall, which is about 60 feet from the marble terrace that is being con structed. The terrace will be of various heights, sympathetic with the embank ment. Between the terrace and ihe main wall of the capitol will be a fine promenade, whose tiling will cover numerous large storage rooms. From this promenade there will be a splendid landscape in view in every di rection. When completed, the terrace will add greatly to the height and general appearance of the capitol, |wbich now seems too low on account of the large area over which it spreads. At the cen tre of the west front will be the grand stairway. Which will outrival anything of its kind in the world. The Senate ap propriated $778,000 for the work, intend ing that that should complete it and that labor upon it should not cease until it was completed. The House cut the appropria tion down to $60,000, which will hardly complete the two hundred feet that 6till remain unfinished in front of the north wing. Gutirura llrmrOtro. MIJpUM And Every Species of Itch ing and Burning Dis eases Positively Cured. CZEMA, or Salt Rheum, with its agoniz ing itching and burning, instantly reliev ed by a warm bath with Cuticura Soap, and and a single application of Cuticura, the great Skin Cure. This repeated daily, with two or t'jree doses of Cuticura Resolvent, the New Blood Purifier, to keep the blood 001. the perspiration pure and unirritating, the bowels open, the liver and kidneys active, will speedily cure Eczema. Tetter.

Will McDonald, 2542 Dearborn street. Chi cago, gratefully acknowledges a eure of Sait Rheum on head, neck, face, arms and legs for seventeen years; not able to walk except on hands and knees for one year: not able to help himself for eight years; tried hundreds of remedies; doctors pronounced his case hopeless; permanently cured by Cuti cura Resolvent (blood purifier) internally, and Cuticura and cuticura Soap (thegreat skin cures) externally. Chas. Houghton, Esq., lawyer, 18 State street, Boston, reports a case of Salt Rheum under his observation for ten years, which covered the patient’s body and limbs, and to which all known method# of treatment had been applied without benefit, which was com pletely cored solely by the Cuticura Beme dies, leaving a clean and healthy skin. F. H. Drake, Esq., Detroit, Mich., suffered untold tortures from a Salt Rheum, which appeared on his hands, head and face, and nearly destroved his eyes. After the most careful doctoring and a consultation of physi cians failed to relieve him, he used the Cuti cura Remedies, and was cured, and has re mained so to date. Mr. John Thiel, Wilkesbarre, Pa., writes: I have suffered from Salt Rheum for over eight years, at times so bad that I ceuld not attend to my business for weeks at a time. Three boxes of Cuticura and four bottles of Resolvent have entirely cured me of this dreadfnl disease. Sold by all druggists. Price: Cuticura, 50 cts.; Resolvent, $1; Soap, 25 eta.
