The guileless giggle of the girl graduate is no longer heard in the land. Every one that has a slight attack of cucumber ache will now be certain he has the Asiatic cholera. It remains now for the committee to decide who wrote the best letter, Gail Hamilton or Mrs. Logan. The Virginia Democrats will now prob ably succeed in giving the finishing stroke to the Mahone machine. What the country needs worse than any thing else just now is an amendment to the constitution that will do away with the tyranny of the colored cook. The Democratic party don’t want the world, and it is perfectly willing for can didate St. John to carry his own State. Hon. Abram S. Hewitt has gone to Europe. He is supposed to be really on his way to have another big frolic with his friend, the Sultan of Turkey. To what depths may some Republican newspapers sink! They are already be ginning to accuse Gov. Cleveland of being the author of “The Bread Winners.” The lordly RoscoeConkling still neglects to have his turkey leathers bleached so as to enable him to wear a white plume in honor of the gentleman from Maine. The Ohio Ku Klux have been getting in some very nice work again during the past week. It is probable that Senator Sherman is the Grand Cyclops of the Klan. It is to be hoped that Sachem Kelly’s extended stay at Saratoga will restore his wonted condition of body and mind. It takes a good deal to kill such a man as Kelly. The campaign in the South is dull and spiritless on the Republican side. Ser geant Bates has not yet appeared on the gross-ties wearing the white plume of Nevar-re. . There is no doubting Roswell P. Flower’s loyalty to his party or his patriotism. He is going to uncork his barrel again this year aud join personally in the torch light procession. The United States Fish Commission is having a nice piemc during this hot weather. It is at sea on board the Alba tross, and is scooping up all kinds of little fish and other marine curiosities. The taxable property of Chatham coun ty shows an increase of half a million dollars over the assessment of 1883, and a million and a half over the assessment of 1882. Rather encouraging return that, considering we have had no special boom. The sensational rumor that President Diaz, of Mexico, has a plan to negotiate a loan with the United States Govern ment, by giving the State of Chihuahua as collateral security, may be told to t,he marines. Our government is not licenced to do a pawn-brokerage business. The new cheap cab company is becom ing quite popular in New York, so much so that the number of “fraud” cabs, painted to imitate cheap cabs, has largely increased. Parties wishing to take cheap cabs have to be very particular or they will be taken in and charged double price by the “frauds.” A New York special says that “Gen. Butler’s letter of acceptance will soon make its appearance with the effect of ‘a bugle blast which will echo from Maine to Texas, and from the Atlantic to the Pacific.”’ This will be appreciated by those who know the General’s power and skill in the matter of blowing his own horn. The tale of Gen. Logan’s forbearing to supersede Gen. Thomas on the eve of the battle of Nashville, when he had orders to do so, which is being harped on a good deal by Republican stump speakers, has no foundation in fact. Even Badeau’s Life of Grant contradicts it. rrobablv Logan was the commander who turned over old Mrs. Jones’ ash hopper. It seems that Representative Blount will have no opposition for a re-nomina tion. That is as it ought to be. Mr. Blount is an able and thoroughly equip ped Congressman. He has done good service and will continue to do good ser vice. His district is proud of him and will keep him at W ashington, doubtless, as long as he will consent to serve. The total revenue of New Orleans for the year is estimated at $1,533,864 88. It will require close economy for the city to pull through with that, for among the items to be paid out of it are—on the city debt and interest. $1,011,799 18; for judg ments, interest and cost, $134,488 96. The tax payer weeps, but it does no good— the collector comes around promptly all the same. Scientists now state that if the conti nents and the bottom of the ocean were graded down to a uniform level, the whole world would be covered with water a mile deep. If de Lesseps or Capt. Eads hear of this they will be organizing a company and trying right away to get a contract to do the grading. There would be no objection to watered stock in such a concern as that. Miss Lulu Hurst is creating quite a 8 much interest in her mysterious “force” in Boston as she didin New York, and the audiences are about as uproarious in the Hub as they were in Gotham. Anew theory was advanced by a young Bostoni an Wednesday evening. He declared that Miss Hurst owed her success to the influence of her personal charms. As doctors never agree on any subject, the audience at once booted the scientific youth off the stage. The true culture of the country appears to be concentrated at the watering places just now. One night not long ago a thief went into the cottage of Mrs. Edwards at Atlantic City and stole her fine gold watch. A lew days afterwards she re ceived a very polite note from him ex pressing regret at the circumstance of the robbery and enclosing a pawn ticket for the watch, and bidding her a kind farewell. All she had to do was to get the watch out of pawn by paying the amount due ou it, or by legal process. A Contest to be Deplored. There is some danger that the campaign will degenerate into a mud-slinging con test. The best elements of both parties would deplore that kind of a campaign. A few Republican papers have published a scandalous story about Gov. Cleveland. It connects him in a very disreputable way with a widow who, it is alleged, at one time resided in the city ot Buffalo. It is to the credit of most of the leading Republican papers that they have refused to publish this scandal. Even if it were true, it has nothing to do with the cam paign. There are excellent reasons for Relieving that it is not true. If it were, the probabilities are that it would have found its way into print long before Gov. Cleveland was nominated for President. There were those, when he was candidate for Governor, who would have been glad to have published such a story. When he was Mayor of Buffalo he incurred the hostility of a very strong ring of ward politicians, and yet there were no scanda lous whisperings respecting his public or private character. It being impossible to smirch his public life, this story was invented, doubtless, with the hope of cre ating the impression that his private life was not such as to commend him to moral people. The scandal does not promise to meet with much encouragement. No class of people is disposed to believe scandals about candidates which are published after the campaign begins, and which are not accompanied with any proof. A few of the small fry Republican or gans argue that the attacks which have been made on Blaine justify personal war fare on Cleveland. There is a great differ ence between the attacks on Blaine and this indecent attack on Cleve land. It is a difference which anyone of ordinary intelligence can see at once. No stories reflect ing on Blaine’s private character have been published. The charges against him were made while he occupied a very prominent public position, and they re lated entirely to acts which raised the question of his official integrity. One was that, while Speaker of the House, he saved the land grant of the Little Rock and Fort Smith Railroad by a shrewd ruling, and that for this service he demanded and received compensation. Another was, that having received bonds of the road as payment lor the part he played in saving the land grant, he made a false statement respect ing the matter to the House. A third was that he so and his influence to the Northern Pacific Railroad for an interest in the road while a member of Congress. His interest was to depend upon the success of certain proposed legislation in favor of the road. A fourth charge was that he obtained from a man named Mulligan, by promises which he did not intend to fulfill, and which he never did fulfill, letters which implicated him in the Little Rock and Fort Smith Railroad business. Blaine has denied all these charges and his friends have denied them for him. Letters, the genuineness of which have never been questioned, have been pub lished, however, which iu the minds of a majority of unpartisan aud unprejudiced people sustain them. Charges like these arc legitimate subjects ot inquiry and commeot. Blaine is the candidate of a great party for the greatest office in the gift ot the people. He is accused of corrupt practices as an official while holding the third greatest of fice in the country. If he is guilty of the things with which he stands charged he is wholly unfit to be elected to the great office of President. In that position the people want a man in whom they have the fullest confidence. To slander Cleve land will not disprove the charges against Blaine. West Virginia and Florida. It is said that Mr. Jones, Chairman of the National Republican Committee, con fidently expects the Republicans to carry West Virginia and Florida. The fact that Blaine, Elkins and other Republi cans are largely interested in a railroad and mines in West Virginia counts for little or nothing, so far as the politics of that State are concerned. Eminent Dem ocrats are associated with them in the railroad and mining properties. The fu sion of the Greenbaekers and Republicans may help the Republicans a little provided they can agree upon a State ticket that will prove entirely satisfactory to the fu sionists. The best informed politician in the State, Senator Kenna, says that the Democrats can beat the Republicans and Greenbaekers by a majority of 10,000 votes. He has good grounds for his opinion. In 1880 the Republicans and Greenbaekers combined and were beaten by 3,000 votes. In the last two yJn-s the Greenback party has shrunk to very small proportions. There is not much danger that Chairman Jones will gather West Virginia into the Republican fold. In Florida there is at present a rather unsettled condition of affairs, but there is nothing to indicate that the Democrats will not carry the State. The Republi cans and Independents have combined, but the Independent strength is not great and the Republicans are not all satisfied with their position. The Democrats will make a vigorous campaign, and will call out a full party vote. It doesn’t look possible for the Republicans and Inde pendentsto make a campaign in which there will be either earnestness or en thusiasm. They will not get along very well tqgether, and they will not be able to poll anywhere near the full Republican vote. The Democratic leaders are not at all alarmed at the indorsement of the In dependent ticket by the Republicans. They know their own strength pretty well and, also, that ol their opponents. Chair man Jones need not - look to Florida for help. _____ The Convention’s Work. The Congressional Convention of this district completed its work yesterday afternoon. After four days of caucusing, epeechmaking and balloting, it nomi nated Hon. Thomas M. Norwood. Mr. Norwood’s nomination was a surprise, but not an unpleasant surprise. He was not regarded as a candidate for the nomi nation, and if his name was mentioned for the place at all, prior to its presenta tion to the convention, the fact was not generally known. The nomination is very satisfactory to this county and it will meet the hearty approval doubtless, of the other counties of the district. Mr. Nor wood is known beyond the limits of the State. His career in the United States Senate was very creditable. He made a reputation there for ability and statesmanship. In his hands the interests of no part of the district will suffer. He will help to sustain, if not to increase, the influence which the Georgia delega tion wields in Congress. No doubt the warm friends of the four gentlemen who were so persistently supported during the four weary days of balloting feel some dis appointment with the work of the conven tion, but they wi 11 find comfort, doubt less, in the reflection that all was done for them that could have been done, and that while no one of them was successful, the convention gave the party a candidate to whom there can be no opposition anywhere. If the delegates from this county stood by Chat ham’s candidate longer, in the opinion of some, than they should have done, the blame ought to rest on the mass meeting which appointed them, and which gave them such positive instructions as to practically leave them but one course to pursue. Butler has been strangely quiet since his visit of condolence to President Ar thur. THE SAVANNAH MORNING NEWS; SUNDAY. JULY 27, 1884. ImmignnU’ Blunders. The acting British Consul at Charles ton has written to the Commissioner of Agriculture of South Carolina asking aid in securing employment for the Skye crofters who recently settled i t Robeson county, N. C. It seems they selected, under persuasion of interested parties, probably, a poor country to make a living in, and they have become very much dissatisfied with their bargain before their first season in America has come to an end. They are represented to be a very hardy, moral and thrifty people, who will make first-rate farmers and good citizens when they become familiar with American methods. It seems that the mistake made by these men of Skye is the same that has been made by hundreds of people who have settled in the South since the war. In selecting a location they looked more to obtaining the greatest number of acres for the least money, and on the most fa vorable terms, than to getting farms on which they could sustain themselves and improve their condition. Good farming land is seldom obtained, even in tne South, at from one to three dollars per acre, and those who settle on worn out plantations, without the means to restore their fertility, or in the barrens, soon have cause to regret it, but not until, in many instances, it is too late to correct the error. Coming to a country with the products of which they are entirely unfamiliar, it would take these people two or three years, on pretty good laud, to begin to make a profit off their labor; but when colonies are located on abandoned planta tions nothing but disappointment, if not disaster, is to be expected. There is no doubt that the South offers advantages to immigrants, whether agri culturists or mechanics, not surpassed by any other section of the Union. Good lands can be had at reasonable prices— lrom $5 per acre upwards—according to quality, location and improvements. No man, however, or body of men, should think of settling in the South or, any other section, without exercising good judgment after a more or less extended prospecting tour through the country. Twenty acres of good productive land at S2O per acre are far better than 200 acres of barren land at $2 per acre. Ex cellent farming land can be purchased in some of the best sections of Georgia with comfortable improvements and conve nient to transportation, at $lO per acre. Those wishing to settle in the South should inspect these 1 lands and not buy one and two dollar land except for pastur age or speculative purposes. Those who expect to get first-class farms in Georgia or North Carolina, or auy other State, for a little pocket change will be disappoint ed. Tlie Mississippi Cholera Case. The cholera case on the Mississippi river steamboat turns out to have been a case of summer complaint. The victim was a very young child whose parents, instead of being French immigrants lately from Toulon,were Spaniards from Mexico. The Captain of the steamboat on which the child died was greatly surprised on arriving at St. Louis to find that the child’s death had been attributed to cholera, and that there was great excite ment about it. The alarm throughout the country, caused by the report in this case, shows the anxious state of the pub lic mind respecting the cholera. A few days ago there was suspicious sick ness in a tenement house in New York, aud a day or two atterwards a man died in Philadelphia who showed symptoms of cholera. In. both cities for awhile there was great uneasi ness. No doubt there will be reports of cholera cases from other sections of the country before the summer is over, even though the cholera does not reach our shores. Suspicious cases of sickness that would hardly attract attention in ordinary times will be magnified into genuine Asiatic cholera. The dreaded disease is expected to reach this country and the tears of the people make them ready to accept any case of cholera mor bus as evidence that it has already made its appearance. This fear of the plague may have the effect of causing our cities to be put in good sanitary condition, so that if the cholera does come its visita tion will not- be so terrible as if they were reeking with filth. Last week there was a suspicious case of yellow fever at New Orleans, and the citizens at once called on the Mayor and demanded that the streets and gutters should be cleaned at once. It is reported that the city is very dirty. The chief of the street cleaning department is enjoying himself at the Northern summer resorts, aud the street cleaningbrigade, according to a special from that city, is not doing much beyond drawing cash from the city treasury. At a time when both cholera and yellow fever are among the possibili ties, and when the success of the Cotton Exposition is largely dependent upon keeping the city healthy, it would seem as if the authorities would exert them selves to keep the city clean. Ring rule, however, bears its responsibilities lightly. Gen. Perry’s Letter. The letter of Gen. Perry accepting the Democratic nomination for Governor of Florida is that of a patriot and states man. He is an earnest believer in the fundamental principles of the Democratic party, and is prepared to battle for those principles. He was a brave soldier iD the late war, and he talks like those who were true soldiers North and South. He has put away all bitterness and meets the soldier of the North and South with equal frankness. He is deeply inter ested In building up Florida, and if he is chosen Governor the doors of that State will be thrown wide open to immigrants, and over each iu conspicuous letters will appear the word “Welcome.” On this point he says: “The common purpose of the peo ple should be to advance the material in terests of our State. Let us endeavor at this crisis in her destiny, when the atten tion of the world is directed to her genial climate and varied resources, to rise above personal considerations and politi cal prejudices, and so co-operate together for her advancement and progress that the near future may see Florida the fore most among the States of the South.” This is the kind of talk the people of Florida want. Gen. Perry is the kind of a man Florida needs at the head of her affairs. Wrapping the delicious cream cara mels of commerce is a delightful occupa tion in which half a hundred Philadelphia girls earn $7 a week each. Some of them wrap 7,500! or 150 pounds a day. A vacancy occurred among the caramel wrappers in one of the candy shops the other day, and nearly every girl in the city applied for the place. Girls know a good thing when they see or hear of it. The name of Hon. William Daniel, the “Little Giant of Maryland,” the Prohibi tion candidate for Vice President, was presented to the Pittsburg convention by Mrs. Minnie Mosher Jackson, of this city. In her remarks she said: “As we have a St. John to lead us on, we should have ‘a Daniel come to judgment.’” She was heartily applauded. Once more the cable bears across the sea the rumor that Mary Anderson is ac tually going to become a nun. Perhaps When Mary is sick, Mary a nun would be, But when Mary is well, not much of a nun is she. The young people who do their court ing at the watering places and in the parks object to the electric light. Their objections are purely personal and em brace each other. i CURRENT COMMENT. A Short but Clear Record. Boston Ad vert iter {lnd. Rep.). The more Mr. Blaine's record is looked into, the less like a reformer does he seem. Gov. Cleveland is objected to in some quarters be cause of the shortness of his record. But it may fairly be claimed far him that all there is of it is that of a bold and consistent re former. Can Write Long or Short Letters. Detrait Free Free* (Dem Much criticism is uttered about the length of Mr. Blaine's letter ot acceptance. But what can you expect? A man can't always write the same kind of letter. Mr. Blaine has already proved his ability to write brief and pointed letters—as in the Mulligan correspon dence for instance. A Novelty in Its Way. Setc Tort World ( Dem .). The National Convocation of Cold-Water people at Pittsburg was a novelty in its way. It combined all the pleasurable excitement of a political convention with the soothing fea tures of a German Saengerfest. The com mingling of congregational singing with the humdrum business of making motions and speeches is quite a pleasant innovation, and we hope in time to see it adopted by all the parties. A good deal of suimlus steam and enthusiasm an be worked off iu a hallelujah song. No Field for Politicians. Sew York Herald (Ind.). The only practical discouragements of the rum seller and rum drinker have been social. These maybe made absolutely successful if there is a majority opposed to liquor, as, of course, there would have to be tn two-thirds of the States, to secure a national prohibitory law. Let the Prohibitionists stay at home in stead of running to political conventions. Let them work at home against rum as they would against any other social disturber. Wliat they will not do without law they never can do with it. ITEMS OF INTEREST. Those were very old cigars which were given the other day to the Spanish Consul at Portland, Me. They were a lot of 2.000 sent to his predecessor 38 years ago, but which failed to come into his hands before he was trans ferred from his post. A novel mode of paying a visit occurred the other day at Allmry, the Duke of Nor thumberland’s seat, when Mr. Baden Powell of the Scots Guards, accompanied by a brother officer, descended iu his balloon in the park, having come from. Aldershot just in time for lunch. L. J. Rose has sold his estate, probably the finest in California, for $750,000. The planta tion is known as Sunny Slope, near Pasadena, and it contains more than 2,000 acres of well watered land. The orange crop was sold on the trees by Mr. Rose this year for $16,000, and the vintage last year from 1,000 acres of vines was 1,800 tons of grapes. A CASE of death from earth eating is re ported in the British Medical Journal. Such a result is rare nowadays. Yet the writer savs the habit is common among the Hindu inhabitants of Trinidad. Children often take to it, aud in adultß the habit frequently be comes so depraved that it cannot be given up. The earth chosen resembles sandstone and is often mixed with slate. Adults generally adopt the practice from economical reasons. AT a New Year’s feast in the Flowery Kingdom one hears wild shrieks first, then the thrummings and throbbings of a thousand nigger minstrels, changing to an army of bag pipes, the squallings of maltreated babies, the whistling of locomotives, the foghorns of a steamer, the clashing of cymbals, the beating of drums. There is a vast assortment of Chinese musical instruments, from the two strlnged fiddle to the great horn. Dr. Gamoee, of Birmingham, England, has been interesting the Paris surgeons with his artificial sponge. It is made of cotton, rendered absorbent and treated with an tiseptics. One of them of the size of a walnut will absorb water until it reaches the dimen sions of a crikcet ball. One of its most im portant advantages is cheapness; this quality makes it unnecessary to use it more than once, so that “sponge infection” becomes an easily obviated evil. There is a touching pathos in the appeal of Esther Amar, a Jewess, at Dar-al-Beida (Casablanca), who was cruelly flogged with out trial, on a charge of immoral conduct. Her letter to Lord Granville to secure re dress, dated at Tangier, closes thus: “Some friends tell me that in England there is more justice than in this country, and that Her Majesty the Queen would never allow a poor f;irl to be nearly beaten to death, as I have icen, and I beg of Y'our Lordship to tell the Queen about it.” ’Fhe production of oil from sunflower seed has become an industry of considerable im portance iu Russia. It is expressed on the spot, and the product is largely employed in the adulteration of olive oil; the purified oil is considered equal to olive aiul almond oil for table use. The most important industrial ap plications of the oil are for woolen dressing, lighting, and candle and soap making, it be ing regarded, for the last named purpose, as superior to most other oils. The Russian ar ticle is of a pale yellow color. The custom of giving fees, or “tips,” as they are called, is said to have become unpleas antly common in New York. As appeared from evidence in a recent trial, barbers ha bitually scrape customers who do not fee them; elevator boys expect tips for Accom modating passengers, drivers of stages not only look for fees to persons who sit on the root for a smoke, but stop their vehicles near the sidewalk for profitable patrons te get in or out, Conductors of street cars sometimes accept retainers for informing passenger* when a particular street is reached, domestic servants in fashionable families expect fees for the slightest service rendered to guests, and even clerks and messengers in some of tlie great stores need the stimulus of 1 a “tip” to move them to active service in behall of customers. Anew club has been started in London called the “A. B. C.,” with the view, accord ing to Vanity Fair, of making it more par ticularly the rendezvous for Americans and colonists. The club has taken the premises formerly occupied by the old Clarenden Ho tel, and fitted them up in luxurious style. A feature of the club life is to be musical enter tainments on one or more evenings of each week, to which members are to have the priv ilege of inviting other members of their fami lies. The new club is expected to be espe cially favored by strangers visiting London for a short time, who cannot wait for a for mal ballot, or do not wish to undergo the sus pense and uncertainty ot such a venture in clubs which are overrun with applicants for their peculiar privileges. Marseilles, where the cholera is raging, now gives a visitor the impression that the chief occupation of the inhabitants is drink ing absinthe and riding in horse cars. The town is traversed in every direction by long open cars like the Third avenue ones here, with cornices and curtains cut in Moorish scallops, and above the indications of the routes—Joliette. Castellano, Les Catalans, Prado, Belle de Mai, Valle d’Auriol, Les Ag golades. and a dozen other pretty names that seem to be full of sunlight. One of the routes runs along the Corniche road, from the foot path of which you may throw your line di rectly into the Mediterranean aud fish for red mullets. On it is the famous Restaurant La Reserve, celebrated by Thackeray, where alone you can eat Bouillavaisse in perfection. Several of the suburban towns near Boston have been visited in the past few days by a man, evidently a swindler, whose system of deception is so simple and transparent that one could hardly believe that sensible persons would allow themselves to he deluded by it. Ilis mode of operation is this: He sells for one dollar an ordinary paper of needles, and with this a ticket bearing an inscription which reads something like this: “To be delivered in thirty days to hearer, one of our household presents. ‘ free of charge. (Signed) Wallace Brown & Cos., No 393 Chestnut street, Phila delphia; branch office No. 02 Summer street, Boston.” This is the name of the household furnishing firm which the man pretends to represent, but at* the address indicated in Boston nothing at ali is known of the concern. The swindler is described as being about 5 feet 10 inches in height, weighing 150 pounds, having a sandy moustache and blue eyes, and is dressed in a light gray suit. The Chinese farm house is looking abode. Usually it is groves of feathery bamboo and thick spreading ban yans. The walls are of clay and wood, and the interior of the house consists of one main room extending from the floor to the tiled roof, with closet looking apartments in the corner for sleeping rooms. There is a sliding window on the roof made out of oyster shells arranged in rows, while the side windows are mere wooden shutters. The floor is the bare earth, where at nightfall there often Fathers together a miscellaneous family of irty children, fowls, ducks, pigeons and a litter of pigs, all living together in happy har mony. In some districts infested by maraud - ing bands, houses are strongly fortified with high walls, containing apertures for fire arms, and protected by a moat crossed by a rude draw bridge. With grain, swine and a well under his roof, the farmer and his men might hold out against a year’s siege. BRIGHT BITS. “What is that you like about that girl?” one young man of another. “My arm,” was the brief reply. “Why, Sam! How do you expect to get that mule along with a spur only on one side?” “Well, boss, if I gets dat side to go, ain’t de udder one boun’ to keep up?” “So Miss Skimps and Mr. Limbs are to be married. Well, I declare? That aged couple. And she is old enough to be his mother.” “In deed she is. And for him—why, he is old enough to be her father.” “Do you think I would make a very attrac tive angel?” said a dude with very large ears, to a young lady. “Well no,” she replied, pointing to his immense ears; “I think your wings are a little too high up,” AT the Planters’ House in St. Louis recent ly a stalwart Democrat, looking at the polar map ina newspaper, said: “No wonder the Republican party wins. It sent two ships to the North Pole to bring back seven votes for the November election.” The news of Mr. Lowell’s illness reminds the Detroit Dotlot the remark of an old Ver mont farmer: “I don’t see no use,” said he. “in gov’ment sendin’ Ministers to England all the while; the lazy scamps don’t preach half the time when they git there.” The new German name for a sausage is “saucissenbreisauerkrautkranywurst.” The English tourist is hereby warned that any at tempt on his part to tackle “the new German name for sausage” can only lead to his being saucissenbreisaurekrautkanywurst-ed in the encounter. Recently an English Coroner’s jury “sat xpon” the body of a child who had met with its death from drinking carbolic acid. It seems that the unfortunate infant, whose age was something over 2 years, was in the habit of finishing off the dregs in the ginger beer bottles opened for its mother’s customers. The child appears to have one day gotten hold of a bottle containing, not ginger beer, but car bolic acid. The jury naturally brought in a verdict of accidental death, but added a rider to the effect that the bottles ought to have been properly labelled! Breathes there a man with soul so dead Who never to himself hath said, “Ob, would I had a boom!” And paving with his boom been licked, And out of hope and money tricked.

Lathrop, who was superintending the “Wild West” exhibition. “First, you get a peck of peach tree leaves,’’ said James. "Yes, they’re easy to get.” “Then you chew a leaf every time you want a chew of tobacco.” “Yes.” “And chew peach tree leaves until yon get to like ’em.” “Can you acquire a love for them?” “indeed you can! You can get the habit of chewing peach tree leaves as firmly estab lished as the tobacco chewing habit.” “Then what do you do?‘ ! “Then you go off to some secludedVot convenient spot and kill your self.” —Detroit Free Dress.

The Lancet remarks that the epidemic of cholera in the south of France does more than maintain itself; it increases, and it has diffused itself over a somewhat wider area. But lor all that it is still a limited outbreak, and the hope that it may in the main be confined to the neigh borhoods first attacked may, perhaps, be realized to a greater extent than was at first thought possible. So far the ru mors as to its extension to Paris and towns in other countries do not seem trustworthy, and hitherto no case has been brought into the United Kingdom. The Lancet gives a summary of a paper on cholera, read on the 30th ult. before the Accademia Petrarca of Arezzo, by Dr. Tommasi-Crudeli, whose researches on the bacillus malaria) from a distinct advance in the etiology of intermittent fever. After tracing the history of the three great cholera epidem ics that have visited Europe, he remarked that the disease was always an importa tion, never acclimatized like small-pox, and he defined it as a “contagio-miasma, a morbigenous germ, proceeding from a diseased human body, which never diffuses itself epidemically, except when the excretions containing it find in the soil conditions favorable to its multiplica tion.” Filippo Pacini, of Florence, wto died just a year ago, was in 1854 the first to recognize the cause of cholera in a mi croscopic organism. This organism, ac cording to Pacini, attacked the mucous membrane of the intestine; but his doc trine was ridiculed or disregarded till the other day, when the German Commission investigating cause of cholera in Egypt and its native seat, the delta of the Ganges, came to the conclusion al ready arrived at by the Tuscan patholo gist. THE CHOLERA GERM. The cholera germ imported by patients or their infected clothes becomes epedemic only iu countries presenting conditions favorable to its development. This devel opment does not happen everywhere in the same mode, and in certain places it does not happen at all. When the disease has entered a country we cannot say whether it will take firm hold or not. We only know that its spread may be favored by four conditions: 1. Porosity of the soil in which choleraic dejections have been allowed to penetrate. 2. Oscillations ot the underground waters by which the cholera miasm • which has developed in the soil may reach tie respirable atmosphere. 3. The accumu lation of fsecal matters or of organic detri tus iufected by the germ. 4. The facili ties offered to the diffusion of the germs in the drains, in the soil, in the air of the locality and in the drinking water. Dr. Tommasi-Crudeli does not believe in sanitary cordons. They are as little able to keep cholera out of a prov ince as custom houses are to prevent smuggling. Quarantine afloat he has more belief in, if properly carried out, with due regard to tne incubation period of cholera (eight days). But the sheet anchor of the prevention of cholera Is the exclusion from the dwelling house and its inmates of the cholera germ. His counsels in this regard are similar to those of the English sani tary authorities—if possible a little more stringent as to the washing with disinfectants of all linen, whether visibly fouled or not with faecal matter. As to prescribing a diet different from what suits the individual in ordinary health, he ridicules the notion. BLUE BLOOD BY THE SEA. LIFE AT LONG BRANCH DAILY GROWING MORE GAY. Barry Wall, the King of the Dudes, and “Clara Bell,” the Mau with a Woman’s Norn da Plume—Beautiful Belles Fighting: Shy of Neptnue’s Caresses at Atlantic City. Correspondence of the Morning Sews. Long Branch, July 25.—As I sur mised last week, life at Long Branch is daily growing more lively. Cottages and hotels have each received numerous ac cessions, and the outlook lor a gay season is much more roseate than it was a cou ple of weeks ago. Well-known people are daily swelling the ranks of those al ready here. Everybody has doubtless read some of the spicy letters which are constantly appearing in different parts of the country over the signature ot “Clara Bell.” I saw the original of the nom de plume to-day for the first time. Clara is a slight-built, dark-complexioned gentleman, with black hair, bright, black eyes, and small, girlish features. His wife is a strong, robust looking lady, who looks more like a man than he does. The couple are seen out riding daily with their two charming children. This quiet, mild-voiced gentleman looks and acts as if he would be the last person in the world who would write the racy arti cles that appear over his journalistic signature. Mr. E. Berry Wall, of New York city, who blossomed into social distinction last season as the “King of the Dudes,” because he came here with more clothing iu his trunks than some of the newspaper men here had over owned iu their lives, is at the West End Hotel. He is a cultured troutleman who rejoices in the possession of a large income, which he spends in a royal manner, and he is decidedly popular. He owns several good horses, which are at Monmouth Park. He is not by any means the fool that some of the papers 6tyle him. LORD AND LADY KXMONTH, who are spending their honeymoon here, are on a lour days’ visit down the coast. On their return they will be entertained by Mr. and Mrs. George AY. Childs, and other prominent cottagers. Col. Moulton and Mrs. Moulton are spending the season at the Fiske cottage. Mrs. Moulton is a sister of Gen. AY. T. Sherman. Theatre goers have a very pleasant memory of Miss Ida Vernon, the charming actress, who was the leading lady with Edwin Booth last season. She is now a guest of Mrs. Judge S. V. Priestly at the summer home of the latter on Liberty street. In social matters the “summer capital” has been, as already intimated, somewhat slow this season,’ but is rapidly enliven ing. Early in August the annual children’s carnival will take place in the dining room of the Ocean House. Last night Mr. David M. Hildreth, proprietor of the West End Hotel, gave a complimentary ball and supper to the guests ol his house. The new rink was handsomely decorated, and there were two bands in attendance, one for promenade music and one for dancing. Supper was served in the large dining room of the hotel. It was one of the finest affairs ever given at the Branch. On Saturday, Aug. 2, a com plimentary ball will be tendered to Mr. Ernest Meyer, the leader of the fine orchestra of the AVest End Hotel, and the following Saturday evening a children’s carnival will be given in the rink under the direction of Prof. Marivig, of New York city, who has the supervision of those given at the Academy of Music in that city. This will be equal to any ever given in New York, and will be one of the events of the present season. THE GAME OF LAWN TENNIS is rapidly losing its popularity with the ladles. 1 asked a young lady what was the reason. She said because it was too hard work. The real reason is because the game, when played with a lively and good batter on the opposite side of the netting, brings into play every portion and muscle of the body, and ladies who lace tight find it impossible to become expert at it. This is the whole truth of the case, and the ladies having found out that the game is more adapted for the young men are going back to croquet, which is cer tainly the more graceful game of tne two and decidedly preferable tor the fair maidens who love outdoor pastimes. Word comis to Long Branch this week of the engagement of Mr. Frederick AY. Whitridge, a well known New York law yer, anil Alisa Lucy Arnold, daughter of Mr. Matthew Arnold, “the apostle of sweetness and light.” Miss Arnold ac companied her father during bis recent tour in this country, and met Mr. AVhit ridge in society in New York last winter. He was quite attentive to her, and his recent departure for Europe was, in the opinion of bis friends, only the prelude to his now announced engagement. The news, therefore, furnishes the New Yorkers here a very pretty little piece of gossip. Air. AVhitridge is a graduate of Amherst College and a member ot the University Club. He acted last winter as counsel to the State Senate Com mittee which investigated the Department of Public AVorks. He has long been a member of the Civil Service Reform Asso ciation. Alisß Arnold won many friends in New York during her stay last winter. She is a brunette, petite in figure, with an expressive but not handsome face, and is a typical English girl in every way. Rev. Father Ducey, who acquired a national reputation in the John C. Eno escape, is stopping at Long Branch. Gov. Cleveland is to be invited to occupy a cottage at Long Branch this season. SEVERAL ARISTOCRATIC FAMILIES from the South have been numbered among the visitors at Long Branch this summer. In company with New York Iriends, two of these left on Tuesday to ex amine the respective beauties of Sharon and Richfield Springs. Two of the New York families, whose guests the Southern ers are, own cottages at the resorts named, and that they will bave an enjoyable time there is not at all doubttul. Avery pretty german was danced at the Spring House,Richfield, about a week ago. The belle of New Orleans, Miss Cel&ste Stauffer, was present and attracted a good deal of admiring attention. There are many prettier girls at Richfield, but Miss Stauffer is what they would call across the water very “chic,” and would be no ticed and admired wherever she might go. I MET AN OLD NEWSPAPER FRIEND the other day whom I had not seen in three years/and in his comoany took a run down to Atlantic City. It maintains its popularity with the pleasure seekers of every part of the country, and they are there in force. Bathing is one of the fea tures of every day life there as well as at Long Branch. There hasn’t been much surf on, but there is something very inviting about a calm sea, with its little rollers splashing against you, aud no current to drag and twist you about. In my little strolls along the beach during the two afternoons which I spent at “the city” 1 was im pressed with the scarcity of female swimmers this season. Notwithstanding the complimentary things the papers say in their personal columns about fair swimmers, there are few, very few, here. I don’t believe there are a dozen girls in Atlantic City who can swim half a square. A few years ago I could name that many who could swim half a mile.. The aver age girl is ambitious enough to learn how to swim, and she would willingly give a year's pin money to be able to float, ?>ut as soon as the water touches her ears, or a little ripple breaks in her mouth, she folds up like a measuring rule, clutches her best fellow with the grip of a vise, ana blows ijke a porpoise. There’s no use arguing with her after that; she was near ly drowned, she knows it, and she don’t care to go so near death’s door again in a hurry. There is no public place on earth where the effect of personal adornment is so easily observed as it is at the seaside resort. ’ The girl who was in the surf in a bedraggled bathing suit, with bangs as straight as lead pencils, and dripping drops of salt water down her sunbrowned nose, sits on the hotel porch in the even ing, ruddy, smooth, and clear of skin, frizzes crimped and curly, and resplend ent m “purple and fine linen.” NO BETTER PROOF CAN BE GIVEN. Atlantic City’s widespread popularity and national patronage than the cosmo politan character of the guests at the United States Hotel. There is not much dull business in a seaside resort which draws its patronage so largely from Cin cinnati, Chicago, Cleveland, St. Louis, Nashville, Omaha, Baltimore, Washing ton and Buffalo. The force of employes at this hotel is larger now than ever. There are nearly two hundred, among which number are fifteen cooks and nearly sixty waiters. Mr. Andrews, the proprietor, says this house has enter tained daily aboflt 1,000 guests since the opening of the season. M. In East or West, or North or South, They to themselves an outrage do, Who cannot boast a fresh sweet mouth, With teeth like pearls begemmed with dew, W hen Sozodont all this supplies, And works the charm before our eyes. “ELI PERKINS” IN PARIS. Enflaud and France Contrasted—The Cereals Versus Meat—What One Acre Will Do. Special Correspondence ol the Morning Sews. Paris, July 14.—After living in London two weeks and seeing but one handsome woman, we concluded to go to Paris to rest our eyes. “AVhy is it,” I asked a medical friend, “why is it that there are no beautiful women in Englaud?” “It is because poor people feed so badly from necessity that they cannot look healthful, and because the rich aristocracy drink burgundy and champagne in place of pure drink water. Beer, bread and old cheese,” continued the doctor, “will not make good-looking women; neither will burgundy, champagne and lobster salad. The poor live poorly from Ignor ance and necessity, and the rich live on unhealthful food because it is fashionable. If all our women would stop a moment and think about their food; if they would consume a bowl of health-giving rice, oatmeal or plain bread and' milk twice a day, roses would come to their cheeks again, their champagny breaths would become sweet as the breath of a baby, aud dimples would come to their chins. And if our men, too,” continued the doctor, “would stop drinking beer and rum, ana stop eating salads and ‘raro-bits’ at night, and astonish their stomachs with pure water and bread and milk, diabetes, Bright’s disease and dyspepsia would cease. As it Is, all our rich people are bucking their stomachs and kidnevs against a copper distillery. They are re distilling all their food, for nature absorbs nothing but pure water and pure food. If we drink fermented liquor or wine our stomachs have to re-distill it. Nature ab sorbs the food and t\ ater, and the poison is pushed ofl' through the sewers of the body, making a poisoned-bloated nose or a burgundy-colored face. That's what is the matter with the faces of our English aristocracy. That’s why our women look coarse. That’s why the purple and red nose takes the place" of the pink cheek of your healthful American girl—that’s l ” “Hold on, doctor!” I Interrupted, “if you doctors would onlv practice what you preach, I could listen to you. I believe, after talking this way, that you will go and prescribe brandy or beer or rum and milk to the first patient you have. AVhy, three of our most learned medical idiots in Amer ica fed President Garfield on rum and milk for weeks, and then wondered that it poisoned his blood and killed him.” CHANGING FROM LONDON TO PARIS. The transition from London to Paris i6 like coming from a funeral on a rainy forenoon and going to a picnic in the bright sunlight in the afternoon. AVe ride two hours from London down through the hop fields of Kent, pass the great Canter bury Cathedral and find ourselves on the white cliffs of Dover. From the Dover chalk hills, if we strain our eyes on a clear day, we can see across the’Channel to Calais. AVe get into the new twin boat, (two boats bolted together side by side), and in an hour and a half we are in Calais. It was Sunday when we landed. Sunday is always a lete day in Normandy anil Brittany, so the streets of Calais were full of gaily dressed women in white caps. Those who were not in the streets were working in the fields. Every now and then we could see a Catholic procession in the street. There would be the priest, the gay banners, the procession, and the veiled effigy of the Virsriii. It was amus ing to see the simplicity of the people. Men would come from the field on this Sunday morning, cross themselves de voutly before the Virgin, say a prayer and go back again to their ploughs! There is no Sabbath in Northern France. Alen were hoeing potatoes, gathering fagots, cradling rye or hoeing beans. In England the fields are separated by hedges which take up much room. In France they are separated by tall Nor mandy poplar trees. These' trees are trimmed high up, so as not to shade the land. The limbs are trimmed off every year. They make the fuel ot France. Out in Kansas our farmers have learned that a row of willow trees a half mile long will supply a farmhouse with firewood. Every where the French landscape is made pic turesque with the old four-sail windmill. This windmill grinds all their flour and feed. Farm machinery is very primitive. Almost all the work is still being done by hand. The American reaper and mower is seen only in large fields. ENGLAND AND FRANCE CONTRASTED. The picture of the farms was always the same from Calais to Paris. Unlike England, the land in France is all culti vated. In England three-tourths of the land is in grass. The English do not raise one-haif as much as they consume. AVith land worth S3OO an acre they can buy food cheaper than they can raise it. In France three-fourths of the soil is in grain or vegetables. Trade channels are not fully opened between France and America, so France buys little American grain and is selt-sustaining. She imports little food. England imports almost all her food. France is prosperous. She pays off her -debt quickly. England is not jirosperous. No one can afford to pay the big rents, and many fields are untilled. Her big debt weighs her to the ground. France could live if all the rest of the world should be blotted out. England would go to destruction in two years if left to her self. To me, the future of France looks bright, but the future of England looks dismal enough. As America grows older she will have more manufactures. AVhen our country becomes perfectly civilized she will not sell a bale of cotton or fifty bushels of wheat and buy with the pro ceeds a brass clock from England or a Limogese vase from France. AVhen we make our own brass and china ornaments in America, England will be badly off. AVhen her manufactures tail her, she will be a beggar among nations. But even with no exportations of wine, or china, or brass, France could live within herself, for three-fourths of her soil is devoted to cereals. THE CEREALS VERSUS MEAT. England is a meat eater, while France is a cereal eater, or an eater of bread and oil. Yesterday I had a long talk with le -Comte Ferdinand de Lesseps in regard to the value of cereals for food. M. de Les seps worked thousands of Italians, Turks and Frenchmen on the Suez Canal. “Do you really think the cereals are stronger food than meat?” I asked. “Certainly,” he replied. “One pound of dry wheat or flour is worth as much as three’ pounds ot wet beef. Scald the pound of flour and see! you have have a gallon of mush! you could not eat it in three days. If you feed the cereals to cattle, as they do in England, it takes eight pounds of grain to make a pound of meat. So, why feed the grain to animal tramps? AVhy not eat it ourselves and do away with a surplus population of 50,- 000,000 cattle, hogs and sheep—animal tramps? England is supporting perhaps 80.000,000 cattle,sheep and hogs,ami 40,*000,- OOOpeople-or rather,she supports her cattle and’ buys bread from America to feed her people. France supports 45,000,000 people and about 20,000,000 cattle, hogs and sjteep.” “Then you believe in raising more grain and less cattle and hogs?” I asked. “Certainly. One acre of cereals in France will support five men, while it .would take two acres ot grass to support one steer; and, in the end, one man would eat the steer. The advantage of the cereals over meat is as five to one. So, you see, the steer is an unnecessary tramp. The Englishman,” continued ’M. Lesseps, “insists on roast beef, every pound of which costs eight pounds of cereals. The Frenchman eats the cereals themselves. He buys millions ol gallons of cotton-seed oil in America at three cents per pound. This he eats in his salad, in his soup, and in his bread and pie crust. The French man refines millions of gallons of Ameri can cotton-seed oil, sends it back to America and sells it for two or three dol lars a gallon. Cotton-seed oil is supessed ing pea-nut oil, and olive oil is almost a thing of the past. For years the pea-nut crop of Tennessee and North Carolina has been sent to Marseilles and made into olive oiL Cotton-seed oil has been found by the French to be better and cheaper than pea-nut oil. To-day all Spain, Southern France, Italy, Turkey and Aus tria are living on American cotton-seed oil. All an Italian gentleman or laborer wants is oil, maccaroni, bread, sugar, wine and coffee. Cotton-seed oil takes the place of meat. It is strange that your Southern States have been ior years throwing away millions of barrels of beautiful cotton-seed oil and buying unhealthful pork and lard in its place ! Corn meal cooked like maccaroni with oil and cheese is delicious food, and so cheap!” The Count is right; but he forgets that in France there is nothing wasted; 15,- 000,000 steers will go as far as 50,000,000 steers in England, or 75,000,000 in profli gate America. There Is never a mouth ful of meat or grease thrown away in France. France can support a popula tion of 100,000,000 better than England can support a population of 25,000,000.
