had gold hoops and faucet, and thjjjteg

back with a letter of thanks. It must

“A Merry Christmas.”
There is no anniversary in Christendom
which is connected with so many sacted
or which recalls so many
iliffi-htful memoiies, ns Christmas, tor
many hundreds of years millions have
celebrated each return of the
day that marks the anniversary
of our Saviour’s birth and the beginning
of the last week of our calendar year,
with grand religious ceremonies, childish
festivities .and bacchanalian scenes.
Each country and each creed has its own
jieculiai manner of celebrating this joyous
season. The rich, the poor, the bond,
the free, the Christian, the sinner, the
aged, the young, claim this glad week for
their own.
In thiscouutrj the children become dur
ing Chi istrnas the absolute rulers o( almost
every household. The ends of tin* earth
an* ransacked, it may be said, to contri
bute to their pit a*ur.. studies are laid
aside and joy and mirth reign supreme.
There are some, however, in every com
munity to whom this precious season
brings little or no pleasure. There are
some who are wasted by disease and rack
ed with pain, others who suffer from
want, and yet others who are mourning
the loss of loved ones. It is a gratifying
evidence that the world is growing better,
that with each return of this happy day
there are greater efforts made by those
whom a kind I’rovidence has blessed to
cbeer the hearts aad lighten the cares of
the less fortunate. The pleasures of the
selfish person are only half pleasures,
and those who are moved by genuine
charity are happy in the kuowledge that
it is more blessed to give than to receive.
It is well to-day for Christmas anthems
to l>e sung in all the churches, and for
the family circle to enjoy to the fullest
extent the mutual tokens of affection and
the joys of reunion around the testive
board, but the happiest Christmas will
be theirs who devote the day to alleviat
ing the sorrows and lightening the bur
dens of the afflicted and the poor.
Points About the Nicaragua Treaty.
Capt. Bedford Pirn, an Englishman of
prominence, who appears to
p>e tak A i great deal of interest in sever
f;il imponant enterprises in this country,
in a late letter to the New Y'ork Sun,
states his belief pretty strongly that the
Panama canal will never be completed.
He says that when he was at Panama last
October one-half the capital of the canal
company had been expended, ana not one
tenth of the work had bien done, and that
what had been done was the easiest part.
This statement of Capt. Pirn is impor
tant, because the question whether or
not there is a reasonable prospect of the
completion ef the Panama canal may
have some influence in determining
whether or rot the Nicaragua treaty shall
be ratified.
At present the treaty appears to be un
popular. A lull discussion of it, how
ever, may effect a change in public seiitl
ment with respect to it.
There are many other things besides the
question whether or not the Panama canal
will be completed which will have weight
in determining whether or not the Nica
ragua treaty shall be ratified.
If the Spanish and San Domingo treaties
and other] commercial treaties now con
templated with South American States,
should be ratified the government would be
without the means to build the canal.
The treaties would cut off' all the surplus
revenue. Even if the policy embodied in
these commercial treaties is not carried
out the tariff is pretty certain to be so
reduced that there will be no money for
canal building purposes.
As to the cost of the canal there are
various estimates. There is no reason to
think, however, toat it would be below
1100,000,000. One engineer places it as
high as $140,000,000." If the government
does the work it would reach probably
$200,000,000.
Tue canal would make an expen
sive navy a necessity. To build sueh a
navy as would, in all probability, be
deemed advisable, would cost pretty
nearly as much as the canal. It is plain
that if the canal is determined on, com
mercial treaties" and tariff reform must
bo given up. At least they must be given
up until the canal is built.
But would the Nicaragua canal pay it
the Panama canal were also built? That
question cannot, of course, be answered
with any degree of certainty. It will
have to be considered by Congress, how
ever, when the treaty comes up for
action.
The Panama canal will be only about
47 miles long and will have but one lock—
a tidal lock at one of the termini. The
Nicarauena canal will be 185 miles loug
and will have at least a dozen locks. For
a very large part of the trade that would
use the canals the Nicaragua route
would be considerably shorter. From
New Y'ork to San Francisco the distance
would be 430 miles less and
from Ne-w Orleans to San Francisco
530 miles less by the Nicaragua than by
the Panama route. The Nicaragua canal
would, in all probability, get the larger
portion of the trade. It is, of course, im
possible to approximate closely the amount
of tonnage annually that would pass
through either or both of the cauals. It has
been estimated as high as 6,000.000 and as
low as 1,625,000 tons. The revenues of
the Suez canal increased wonderfully
after the first three years. Last year
they were more than six times as great
as they were the first, second
or even the third year. Toe
dividend last year was 17 per cent., and in
the next 15 years it will reach, it is ex
pected, 30 per cent. Judging from the
success, financially, of ths Suez canal it
is probable that the Nicaragua canal,
even if the Panama canal should be com
pleted, would pay a fair interest on the
cost of its construction.
England anti Her Colonies.
It is stated that anew political move
ment is about to be started in England.
Its purpose is to unite England and all
her colonies in a scheme by which they
will get the benefit ot that part of
their trade which now goes to
other countries. It is claimed that
England and her colonies can pro
duce everything which they need, and an
imperial federation is proposed in order
to bring about that condition of affairs.
England has become tired of trading with
countries which takes from her only a
fraction of the amount she takes fron them.
It seems that now she takes from France
three times what France gets from her.
She gets from Germany more than twice
the amount that she sends to that coun
try. the sends the United States only
about $130,090,000 worth of goods a year,
and takes over $300,000,000 worth. Of
course she sets, or thinks she sees, that
this condition of affairs cannot go on for
very many years without making her
poor. She has been able to keep matters
pretty evenly balanced up to the present
by supplying the wants or countries from
which she takes little or nothing. The
demands of 6uo-h countries, however, are
not increasing, while the amount of Eng
land's imports from countries where the
balance of trade is against her is an
nually increasing.
Can England and her colonies produce
all that they want, and, if so, can they do
better by trading with themselves than
by trading with foreign countries? To
these questions those who are engineer
iug this new movement give an affirma
tive answer. The six principal articles
which England wants are flour, gram,
raw cotton, wool, sugars, wood, timber
and tea. She also wants meats, eggs and
fish.
It is claimed that she can get flour and
grain from India, Australia, New Zea
land and Canada. Wheat can be pro
duced in Manitoba in almost unlimited
quantities. Cotton can be produced, it is
said, in quantities sufficient for England's
demands in Queensland, Northern Austra
lia, Fiji Islands and Egypt. Tea is grown
in India, and Canada can furnish lumber
and fish and Australia the mea^k
This -cheme sevtus to promi^that
is desired, but can it be made
No country can-produce
and meats so cheaply as this, and it is
doubtful if England can afford to shut
them out of her markets and the markets
of the colonies. She would like to do so,
probably, but she will hardly attempt an v
thing of the kind yet awhile.
The new amesthelic cocaine is success
ful in all except the price. It costs 40
cents the grain.
Londoners Nervous.)
The explosion under London bridge and
the fire at Windsor station have made the
London people nervous. The force ot the
explosion under the bridge was terrific.
The wonder is that the bridge did not
suffer greater damage. The fire in the
railway station was at first attributed to
an infernal machine, hut investigation
did not sustain this view.
The English press holds the government
of the United States responsible for the
work of the dynamiters. It insists that
efforts ought to be made by this govern
ment to ferret out the guilty parties and
to put a stop to their nefarious work.
It is a very easy matter to assume that
the dynamiters are all in this country,
and that there is no difficulty in suppress
ing them. It is not improbable that the
base of their operations is not in this
country, and if it were it would not be so
easy to show that fact. Before exhibiting
so much leeling England ought to prove
beyond question that the djnamite plots
originate here. Sue would then have
some ground for demanding that our
government should take action looking to
the suppression of the promoters of these
plots.
What can this government do in the
present condition ot affairs? It cannot
hire detectives to hunt alleged criminals
of whose existence it has no know ledge,
and it is useless to legislate about a mat
ter concerning which nothing is known
and with reference to w hich it is not easy
to gel information. There has been a
good ileal of talk about dynamite in this
country, but it is probable that those who
have done the most talking have had the
least to do with dynamite.
CUlt KENT COMMENT.
A “Mugwump’*” Appeal.
Boston A drerti*er (Rep.).
What the Republican party needs to lie con
cerned with now is, not what lost the last
election, luit huw to deserve to win the next
one. And the settlement of this question is
in no w ,iy advanced by prolonging and inten
sifying factional quarrels.
The Blessed Who Expect SotlAt'.
Philadelphia Record (Ind.).
The people of the South have been practic
ing s* if-denial for so long that the offices of
the Federal Government are not as great a
temptation to them as may lie imagined.
They have been so long out of office that they
have got used to it. Tue rush for spoils, if
made at all, is likely to come from a very dif
ferent direction.
The Essence of Reform.
Xetr York Sun (Ind .).
The essence of administrative reform is a
universal overhauling and reconstruction oi
the executive machinery. In the hands of
Mr. Cleveland we all hojie and expect that the
Presidency will be overhauled and recon
structed through the introduction of differ
ent principles aud aims iu the conduct of the
Executive. Next, if administrative reform
is to follow, the new President must use a
free h..nd and an unrelenting will in turning
out ail the old tenants of office who are not
indispensably necessary through peculiar
competency iind efficiency, and in filling their
places wiili Democrats w ho jiossess the indis
pensable qualifications. This is administra
tive reform such as Mr. Tilden would have
carried through eight years ago, if the people
had rot been cheated out of the benefits they
hud a right to expect from his electiou.
ITEMS OF INTEREST.
THE electricians are gettingup anew word,

which gives warning of au insufficiency of
water.
There are at present lit locomotive works
in the United States, besides the shops owned

cestors. sir Moses Montefiore, aged ICO, states
that his father died at 44 years.
The year closing has been one of great pros
lierity for the Young Men’s Christian Associ
ations. Eighty societies own buildings worth
$8,000,000. Fight hundred aud thirty associa
tions are in active existence, with a member
ship of nearly 110,000.
Senator Jonas, of Louisiana, wrote to
New Orleans on Dec. 11 that he does not be

The Xazione shows that Florence, Italy, is
a progressively healthy city. The number of
deaths for the month of September, 1382-3-4,
were respectively 333, 320, 268. The popula
tion in IKSI was Iti'J.OOO, so that the annual
death rate calculated upon the month would
be 18.WJ per 1,000. Enforced sanitation is said
to have effected the result.
HAD the dynamiters succeeded in blowing
up London Bridge the other day, it would
have seriously incouvenieused a number of
people. One hundred thousand persons cress
it every dav. The bridge is 900 feet long and
r>4 feet wide, and the lamp posts were made
from cannon captured in the Peninsular war.
It was built in 132:, and cost over $5,000,000.
The horses attached to the carriage of Mrs.
James A. Garfield were prancing along Su

was scratched slightly on the nose. The
wound was quickly soothed with a $lO bill
from the hand of Mrs. Garfield.

Those who tend the great cattle herds on
the Texas jdains seldom have other than salt
meat to eat. They cannot afford to kill a beef
just to get a sirloin, and in that climate the
balance of the animal will not keep long, it
is now proposed to stock with German carp
the trenches which they dig to catch rain
water for themselves and their herds, and
thus they may have fresh llsh as food while
liviug on the great interior plains.
OF an iron egg in the Berlin Museum the
following story is told: Many years ago a
l’rincc became affianced to a lovely Princess,
to whom he promised to send a magnificent
gift as a testimonial of his affection. In due
time the messenger arrived, bringing the
promised gift, which proved to Ik* an iron
egg. The Princess was so angry to think that
the rrit.ee should send her so valueless a
present that she threw it upon the floor, when
the iron egg opened, disclosing a silver lining.
Surprised at .-uch a discovery, she took the
egg in her hand, and while examining it
closely discovered a secret spring, which she
touched, and the silver lining opened, disclos
ing a golden yolk. Examining it closely, she
found another spring, which, when opened,
disclosed within the golden yolk a ruby
crown. Subjecting that to an examination,
she touched a spring, and forth came the
diamond rijig with which he affianced her to
himself.
C'oxsiper able talk has been going on for the
last few days as to whether the policy of ig
noring Virginians will prevail at the dedica
tion of the Washington monument, as at the
unveiling of the Marshall statue, when
not one single Virginian was invited to
take any part. The programme published of
the monument ceremonies shows that the
same onus-ion has occurred. The only recog
nition of the fact that Washington was born
in Virginia is that the pastor of Gen. Wash
ington's old church in Alexandria is invited
to make tiic opening prayer. Senator Sher
mau presides. Mr. Wintbrop was selected to
make the address, and Oliver Wendell Holmes
has 1 teen requested to compose a itocm. Vir
ginians are particularly disappointed that
James Barron Hope, who composed the “Cen
temal Ode,’’ which was acknowledged by all,
who heard it to 1* a splendid national epic,
was not called uintn for a |ioem. Senator
Morrill said he never bad heard that Hope
was a poet, but he knew attout Holmes. Vir
ginians are wondering if it is not time to re
-igu Gen. Washington to New England
altogether, in spite of nis declaration that
New Englanders wouldn’t fight in defense of
Poston, and of Mr. Blaine’s charge that Mas
sachusetts did not hump herself during the
revolution

A long, lank, lean and chronic Anti-Potash
Boom met the new, fat and saucy Atlanta
Big Bold Boom, on a hot, snltry day.
“Who are you?” asked the B. 15. B. Boom.
“I am the oht Anti-Potash Boom,” was the
sad reply, as the perspiration rolled awn,
and it leaned heavily on the B. B. B. Boom
for support.
“Don’t lean on me,” said the B. B. B. It*om.
“I may look strong, but I am quite young—
only 14 months old, am growing rapidly, and
am mighty weak in the knees. lam doing
the work which you have failed to do, although
yon are 50 years old. Y'ou arc old, and tough,
and rich, ami don’t require a support. But
what causes you to look so thin of late?”
“Well, I hardly know,” replied the Anti-
Potash Boom. “My physician tells uio that
mv abilities have been over-rated, ami that
while trying to whip out all opposition py
boast and brag, that I hare proven my Si
ability. Old age is also creeping on me—having
fought near 50 years before any one knew f
was living—and now I am unable to perform
feats that others are doing. I am collapsed;
my friends have turned against me ana call
me names, and oh, Lordy, how sick I become
at the very sight of B. B." U. Hold my head
while I die.”
MISB ANNIE DANTZLER, KINGSTON,
