Notwithstanding the fact that New Or
leans had a disgraceful dog fight to take
place within her limits last Monday, her
morals are said to be improving. The

wild, brutal sporta of the Roman arena,
were given publicly and in the public
squares."
Here is a chance for some enterprising
young lawyer to get a case that may
make him richer than Vanderbilt, 1L G.
Mason, of Memphis, Tenn.. has a claim
on the land on which a large rart of the
city of Baltimore stauds, which property
is worth at leas. $500,000,000. His remote
ancestor bought the land when the city
was laid out by Lord Baltimore, and it
was afterwards illegally taken possession
of by certain parties, from whom tbe
titles came down to the present owners.
So far Mason ha 6 not been able to get a
lawyer to take his case, as be has been
regarded as a crank. He says, however,
that be has abstracts of records to prove
what he says, and perhaps some crank
ltvycr may tmd a bonanza in the case.
Stranger things have happened.
Crimes arc not very nicely graded by
the laws or the Judges of the different
States. This fact is illustrated by two
cases tried in Philadelphia this week.
The Record of that city says: For the
larceny of a bucket of candy, the
value of which could not jiossibl y* be
more than $lO, two men Wednesday were
sentenced to an imprisonment of 1$ months
each. On tbe day a*aian who
pleaded guilty of an embezzlement off! 15,-
)00 while occupying a position of trust,
was sentenced by another Judge to an im
prisonment 0f32 months—four months less
than the combined imprisonment of the
two me a who committed a petit larceny.
Tbere appears to be a kind of bond of sym
pathy between some Judges and the bril
liant rascals who rob stockholders and
commit grand larceny.
Wall Street Victims.
The victims ol Wall street are num
bered by the thousands, but the public
hears Jnlv of a few of them. These few
are those who find it desirable to seek a
residence in Canada, or who are com
pelled to wear striped suits and spend a
few vears in the peaitentiary at hard
labor.
On last Wednesday, in the United
States District Court room at New
Haven, a dramatic scene was witnessed.
Three men who had been held in the
highest esteem in the city
of Norwich. Connecticut, and who had
moved in the highest social circles, stood
before the venerable Judge Shipman, in
the midst of their weeping tamilies and
friends, to be sentenced to prison. They
had been bankers and had the reputation
of being wealthy. One had been a bank
president and the two others bank cash
iers. They had robbed tbe banks ol which
they had been trusted officers tor many
years, and had used their stealings in
Wall 6treet speculations.
They did not fully realize,
perhaps, the danger they incurred w h< and
they took the tunds of their respective
banks for the puriKise of speculating itb
them. They felt confident of ouectss.
and expected, of course, to return tbe
money they unlawfully used. The
market went against them, and they are
now wearing striped suits in the peniten
tiary. Although comparatively young
men their careers are practically ended.
If they should live out their terms of im
prisonment they could never again hold
up their heads in thecommunity of which
they were once honored members. They
will be too old when they shall have put ofl
their prison clothes to begin life anew in
another community with any prospect of
success. Indeed, it is doubtful if they*
could find a place in the whole country
where their stories would not follow
them.
Of course there are those who pity
them. There is always a great deal of
sympathy for those who having held
prominent social, business or professional
positions, rob those who have placed con
fidence in them. If there were less sym
pathy, perhaps, for wrong-doers of this
class the class would he less numerous.
If the punishment of su<‘b crimes as they
commit were prompt and certain, defal
cations. embezzlements and other breach
es of trust would be much less frequent
than they are.
The friends of the criminals are not to
be blamed, of course, for wanting to keep
the knowledge of their crimes from the
public or for trying to shield them from
the consequences of their acts, but it is
the duty not only of the authorities but
ol all who feel an interest in. the welfare
of the communities in which the crimes
are committed to see that the truth is
made public and the wrong-doers pun
ished.
It is estimated that since 1879 the peo
ple of Connecticut have been robbed by
dishonest bank officials of over $900,000.
Patience with them has ceased to be a
virtue, and they have determined, evi
dently, to make every crooked bank offi
cer pay the full penalty of his crime. If
they had pursued this wise course from
the very* first there would be fewer dis
graced families in the State and fewer
people who have been robl*ed ot their
hard-earned money.
If men will gamble in Wall street they
must be taught that they cannot gamble
with impunity with other jeople*s money.
Confidence is absolutely necessary in the
business world, anil nothing tends so
much to destroy confidence as the dis
honesty 01 business men. Fear of pub
licity and punishment is the only thing
that can be relied on tor protection
against weak or dishonest men in respon
sible positions.
Mr. Cleveland and His Cabinet.
It is not probable that Mr. Cleveland
will announce his Cabinet until he has
been inaugurated. In fact, he is reported
as saying that he will not. There are
good reasons for thinking that he has not
made up bis mind with respect to bis
Cabinet, and if he has it will lie wise not
to make the names of those selected put
! lie until he is President.
To announce the members of his Cal*i
net now would te to expose them to a
groat deal ot unjust, and even harsh,
criticism. There isn't a man in public
life perhaps who hasn't political enemies,
and whose appointment to a high office
would not arouse jealjusies.
All of those who are supposed to have
i Ik on selected for Cabinet places have
i>oon attacked. Of Bayard it is said that
he knows nothing of diplomacy, and is
not at all familiar with the political
affairs ot other nations, it is charged
that Garland's opinions win reference to
the great questions which grow out of our
system of government are not in harmony
with those which are entertained by his
pai ty. It is said that Lamar is a dreamer,
is lazy, and that he will not give his at
tention to the business which will de
volve on him as a Cabinet officer. It is
alleged that Mannfcg knows nothing of
financial *IIIOBI4OOB, and is totally unac
quainted with tarifl matters. \ ilas, the
critics say, has nothing to recommend
him but a rather eloquent tongue. Ibis i9
the sort ot criticism that is lavished upon
about every man who has been spoken of
in connection with Mr. Cleveland s Cabi
net. The character of the criticisms
shows that they are not based on correct
information, are not the result of careful
thought, and are not the product of un
biased and unprejudiced minds.
The purpose of some of the harsh things
that appear in Democratic papers is to
prevent the appointment of several of
those whose names has been conspicu
ously mentioned lor Cabinet places, and
the purpose of other things is simply to
gratify a feeling of envy or jealousy.
A great deal is being saia about the ca
pacity ot this or that man to look after
the details of a great department. Asa
matter of fact what the President wants
in his Cabinet officers is not capacity to
do clerical work, but ability to advise him
in important matters pertaining to the
administration of the government. They
must be able, of course, to direct the af
fairs of their departments with intelli
gence and skill, but there are
plenty of competent and care
fully trained subordinates to look
after de tails and routine matters. The
Treasury is the only department where
there are onerous and exacting duties to
perform. An hour a day, or less, is suf
ficient t • discharge all the duties that the
Secretary ol -date has to perform, and no
one has ever suspeeted that the present
Secretaries of War, Navy, Interior, or the
Attorney General and Postmaster Gen
eral are overworked. The absence of
any one of these officials for days, and
even weeks, occasions no great incon
venience. If a Cabinet officer is a wise
counsellor, there will not be much occa
sion to find fault w ith him if he fails to in
spect each bureau and division in his de
partment daily.
Air. Winthrop's Suggestion.
Robert C. Winthrop, in his oration at
the dedication ot the Washington monu
ment, suggested that in tuture the Presi
dent should be inaugurated on April 30
instead of March 4. The reason lor his
suggestion was that the first President
took the oath of office on April 30. A
writer in the New York Sun gives other
reasons as follows: “The short session
of Congress is now always too brief for
the proper transaction of the public busi
ness, as every other winter 6hows. Jn
fact, every year shows it; for the rush
aud recklessness with which many wise
m -asures arc slaughtered and many iool
ish ones driven through whenever a Con
gress is to come to an end on March 4,
are not more significant than the fact that
in the alternate years, when Congress can
proceed at leisure, the session usu
ally lasts till near midsummer
at least. The common cry that
Congress always sits too long,
and should finish its business every
year iu a couple of months and go home,
is superficial and ioolish. The louiiders
of the republic had no such views, and in
our day Congress has to legislate for a
people, not of five, but fifty-five millions,
whose property has increased prodigious
ly in a century, and whose inhabited area
is not mainly a seaboard strip, but a land
stretching across the continent. The
business of the people ought to be trans
acted for Item by their Representatives
every year in a deliberate, thorough and
well-considered way, no matter how much j
ot the Congressmen’s twelve-month the j
process may require. Mr. Winthrop
could not have bad a more felicitious
time for his suggestion than the present,
when we are about to witness once more
the traditional scenes of the closing days
of a Congress.”
It is true that Congress does very little
during the short term beyond passing the
appropriation bills, and it does not appear
to have sufficient time to give them
proper consideration. It is certain that
Congress knows very little about what
there is in some of the appropriation
bills, because they were passed in such a
hurry that they can not be scanned
closely. It is proposed to pass the sun
dry civil bill under a suspension of the
rules and the river and harbor bill
failed to pass through mismanagement
and for want of time. Mr. Winthrop’s
suggestion is worthy, at least, of con
sideration.
The lliver ami Harbor Bill.
The river and harbor bill was yester
day abandoned by its committee, aud a
hill appropriating $5,000,000, to be ex
pended under the direction of the Secre
tary of War, was passed by the House.
There is no doubt that the failure of the
bill was largely due to the mismanage
ment of the River and Harbor Committee,
and the committee is pretty certain to re
ceive tbe public censure that it deserves.
Impiovements in rivers and harbors in
all parts of the country—improvements
that are imperatively demanded—will
have to suffer on account of this mis
management. It 19 true that opposition
to tbe river and harbor bill is always very
strong, but that is looked for. The River
and Harbor Committee is expected to
meet this opposition and overcome it by
goodjudgment in framing the bill, and by
skill in handling it when it is put epon
its passage.
It cannot be denied that neither judg
ment nor skill was shown in the
management ot the bill that was aban
doned yesterday. The Chairman of the
River and Harlor Committee is a
very amiable gentleman, but he does not
appear to be equal to the task of handling
the river and harbor bill. Even his as
sistants on the committee do not seem to
be exactly the kind of men to be intrusted
with so important a measure.
The committee appears to have made
enemies from the time it began its work.
It undertook to make up a bill to suit
itself and refused to give Representatives
interested in public improvements a
chance to be heard. The bill therefore,
when it was reported to the House, was
coldly received.
The committee made a grave mistake
in incorporating in it several schemes
that were objectionable, if not suspicious.
Almost as soon as the bill came up for
consideration these schemes were at
tacked and finally defeated. Defeats of
this kind weakened the bill.
The Mississippi river people ought to
have learned hv this time that their wisest
course is to make appropriations for their
river in a separate bill. A great deal ot
the opposition to the river and harbor bill
is due to the large amount it appropriates.
It it were not for the Mississippi river the
amount would be much smaller.
It remains to be seen what the Senate
will do with the $5,000,000 bill. It is be
lieved that the bill will meet with opposi
tion in that body. An effort will be made
to increase the amount, doubtless, and If
the effort is successful the House may
object. That is one danger w ith which
the bill is menaced. Another
is that the Republican Sen
ators, may try to delay its considera
tion, with the hope of defeating it, for
the purpose of making capital against the
Democratic party in localities where
river and harbor appropriations are pop
ular.
If the bill finally passes it will
not provide sufficient means to carry
on the improvements as extensively as
they ought to be carried on. Our ow n
river, for instance, will sutler. The
original bill which appropriated more
than $12,000,000 gave our river only
$85,000. What can we expect from a bill
that appropriates only $5,000,000? it is
clear that we shall not get our water-way
to the sea Improved as soon as we ex
pected, and it is not improbable that the
work w ill be so delayed that the improve
ments already made will suffer serious
damage.
CURRENT COMMENT.
Wait for the Truth.
Xem York Sun (Ind.)
On Wednesday of next week, in the after
noon. all this wild and wavering speculation
as to the eoinnosition of the Cabinet will he
at an end. Then at last the truth will he
known.
Tennessee’s Poor Democrats.
Xatkeillt World (Dem.)
That is very poor Democracy which allows
a minority of Democrats to combine with
Ihe Republicans and apply the gag rule to a
majority of Democrats and prevent them
from debating a vital issue It was done in
the Senate yesterday.
The Value of Experience.
Philadelphia Record ( Dem .}
It is querulously remarked that Senators
Dovard, l.stnar aiid Garland, if called to Mr.
Cleveland's Cabinet, will have no experience
in tlie duties of administration. This is very
true. But they will have quite as much ex
leriencc as hal Seward, Chase, StftDton aim
other member* of President Lincoln's Cabi
net, and that is now generally conceded to
have been a tolerably successful administra
tion.
Bound for an Honest Tarifl*.
Setc York World (Dem.)
The Democratic party is just as honorably
hound to give the people honest tariff duties,
not discriminating in favor of monopolies and
millionaires, but fairly adjusted in the inter
est of American industry aud labor, as to give
them bonest public officers. Now that the
election lias been decided on the issue which
made any reform possible tbe Democracy will
not be found backward In pressing every re
form demanded in the public interest.
ITEMS OF’ INTEREST.
AMONG the antique marbles in the British
Museum the cavities in which infernal ma

now boaraed up.
Wolves still abound in France. Last year
rewards were paid for the destruction of 1,305,
the amount reaching over $20,000. Nine per

A stout is current that a great statesman,
who may take a conspicuous position under
the new admin stration. while in a lit of re
flective abstraction, put a silver half dollar in
the street car box. When his attention was
called to it he said: “Pshaw! lam always
doing those queer things.” Then he -went to
the box and slipped in a ten cent piece to
keep company with the half-dollar.
A pile of ox shoes surmounted a pile of
bones in a slaughter house yard in Maine.
The butcher took them as a text, and said:
“Some folks want the ox shoes back when the
oxen arc killed. We always give them. Other
folks buy 'em of us. Some folk* are super
stitious about ox shoes. They think that the
cattle will grow better if they are shod with
a set of shoes that come off from prize cattle.
A soon stoky is told of a recent experience
of Congressman Burleigh at the Fifth Ave
nue Hotel. He had a friend at dinner and
had ordered a bottle of wine. A stranger was
seated at the same table, who reached over
and took from the side of Mr. Burleigh’s
plate a glass of wine which he drank at one
gulp. ‘"That's mighty cool,” said Mr. Bur
leigh. “Yes,” replied the stranger, “I guess
it's been on ice.”
Archibald Forbes was about to deli ver his
lecture, ‘ Warriors I Have Known,” m a town
in England a few days ago, when it was dis
covered that liis manuscript hail been stolen.
Mr. Forbes said he had several times nearly
lost his life; he had more than once lost his
heart and sometimes, through causes not re
motely connected with a distillery, he had
lost his head, but he had never before lost his
lecture, far less had it been stolen.
A Kentuckian one day mounted his good
marc l\dge, and threw across his saddle a
bag with two turtles in each end. BeiDg a
humane man, he made a hole near each of the
turtles to give them air. This did very well
until the ill-natured turtles worked their
heads out of the holes and nabbed poor Fniirc
simultaneously on her flank*. She made a
spring that threw her rider and away she
went. The turtles held their grip, and Pidge
ran till she fell exhausted.
The allegorical statue “America,” at the

“It was strange,” saysThaekeray in “The
Virginians,” “that in a savage forest of Penn
sylvania a young Virginian officer should fire
a shot and waken up a war which was to last
for sixty years, which was to cover his own
country and pass into Europe, to cost France
her American colonies, to sever ours from us
and create the great Western Republic; to
rage over the Did World when extinguished
in the new, and,of all the myriads engaged ip
the vast contest, to leave the prize of the
greatest fame with him who struck the first
blow,"
A fine bronze statue of Hercules, in a
perfect stale of preservation excepting a clean
fracture across the legs, has been discovered
in the course of tbe works connected with the
b ilktingof anew theatre in the Via Nazion
ale. immediately adjoining the Gardens of
the i olonn 1 Palace. Home. It is therefore
probable that it belonged eltner to the Baths
of Constantine or to Hadrian's Temple of the
Sun, which stood near each other at that cor
ner of the Quirinal Hill. The statue measures
upward of six feet iu height.
Large numbers of people, many of them
old soldiers, are cow making pilgrimages to
the site of Andersonville prison. A veteran
recalls the scene at the hanging of six prison
ers by their comrades after they had tried
them by court martial within the stockade.
“The same rope,” he says, “was used for them
all. but it broke with the last man. He
struck the ground unhurt and, springing up,
ran around the prison with the rope dangling
from his neck, and all the crowd of prisoners
after him. They caught him and led him
back to the gallows, got anew rope and
hanged him.
A professor in Vassar College says that the
managers are really alarmed by the steady
falling off in pupils during the past live years.
The number now is only a little more than
half that of !875. “The cause isn’t in any de
terioration of the college itself," raid the pro
fessor, “for it is the same noble school as ever.
The trouble is that Vassar has become a thing
to poke fun at. Half the new jokes alioni
girls are pul upon Vassar students. Their
doings are ridiculed, exaggerated, falsified,
and the very name of Vassar is a synonym for
feminine foolishness. The consequence is that
girls are beginning to dislike to go there. I
wouldn’t be surprised to see the doors of the
college shut in five years more. The news
paper paragraphers will have done it.”

A Neapolitan correspondent writes:
“Wine at Naples is dear for Italy, because it

went to the wood in New York. There is a
considerable quintity exported in bottles, but

last few years have found great favor at the
London elubs. the Chianti, from Tuscany,
being especially like l. The first six months
of this year have seen a large increase in the
exports of Italian wines to foreign countries

why such a hotel can hardly be made to pay.
One reason, of course, is high rent It was a
question of rent that closed the St. Nicholas.
The property was worth more for business
purposes than to a hotel manager. The rents
paid for hotel property in some eases are en
ormous. Hitchcock, Darling A Co.’s lease of
the Fifth Avenue Hotel costs them SIBO/00
annually. Tliev sublet the Broadway stores
and Twenty-third street basements to good
advantage. Their news-stand brings them
about SJ.UeO. They run the bar themselves.
The Hoffman House rents, it is said, with its
new additions, for $150,000. But 1 have
heard also that Reed & fctokes manage it
under partnership arrangement for ex-Sena
tor John W. Mack ay. The Hoffman House
bar has become the most widely known in the
country, with its paintings, statues, tapes
tries, curios and rich appointments.
“With all his faults, said a London club
footman of Lord Aylesford, he was a very
line gentleman, and we all—that is, all the
servants—liked him very much about here.
He’s given it to me hot and heavy many a
time, but I forget all that now, sr. Why,
one of the last nights he was over at th- club
lie exploded al me because 1 didn’t help him
ou with his overcoat fast enough. ‘But you
won’t stand steady, sir,” I said to him, for he
was a bit ‘squiffy’ that night. ‘Do you mean
t > say Fm drunk?’ lie said to mp. getting
terribly excited, anil the more excited he got
the harder it was for him to keep his feet. 1
begged his pardon, but he seemed to get more
angry every moment. He raised his arm ns
if to strike me, and in doing so he fell on the
marble floor. He couldn’t get up, so 1
thought he was hurt anil called to one of the
waiters from the cafe to help me put him on
his feet. The waiter put his arm under Lord
Avlesford’s shoulder and was beginning lo
raise him when His Lordship turned on the
waiter and repeated the question he had put
tome: Do you think I’m drunk?’ Poor fol
ios ! Presently one of his friends came
along and helped us gel hint into the hansom.
The last thing he did as ho got into the cab
was lo shake liis list at us and sav: ‘l’ll have
you both discharged in the morning.* Did lie
make a complaint against us? Oh, dear, no!
A kinder gentleman never lived, and if he iftid
come to Ihe club in tho morning he would
have apologized for his rudeness of that
night, as he had often done before.”

He was a senior and was giving a young

college; the thought that seemed absurd, and
when he looked surprised, added that lie
“hadn’t shown much familiarity with the
press.” He took the hint.— Yale Record.
“I see,” remarked farmer Hocdown,
of Hackensack. to his wife the
other day as he was reading
his morning paper, “that Prof. Foilem. of
London, says fencin’ is healthy exercise for
girls. Now that’s just what I told Milindy

MU. STERNBERG DESIRES TO ACQUAINT HIS PATRONS AND TICE PUBLIC AT
LARGE that he has just returned from New York with an exquisite selection of DIA
MONDS, WATCHES and .JEWELRY of all kimis, far superior to anv ever seen in this eity
under one roof. Owing to the extreme dullness of the trade in New York and all over this
country, he has found the Wholesale trade and Manufacturers of Jewelry extremely anxious
torealue at any price. In most cases, strange as it may appear, they were willing to dis
pose of their wares at almost the actual cost of the Gold. and. in consequence. I feel gratified
in saying that I have not only the NEWEST STYLES, but the CHEAPEST GC’ODS IN SA
VANNAH. and, as I am willing to part with them at a small advance on cost, 1 consider it a
rare opportunity for the purchase of goods in my lme—an opportunity that w ill not occur
again very soon. I feel that my reputation is sufficiently established that I net'd not again
assure the public that my goods are as reliable as if they were purchased of a higb-pneed
establishment at TWICE THE ACTUAL VALUE; y P
