Tim New fork Times republishes, ns u matter of current interest, some ehoice specimens of the Bluine-Fisher corres pondence. A^e cannot wither them. California lias the youngest telegraph operator, it is believed, in this country. 8ho is Miss Nellie Welch, eleven years of ago, and she has full charge of the oilicc at Point Arena. This cholera not only makes an ad vance upon its former line of inarch across the Atlantic to the American con tinent, hut seems to lie moving via Japan towards our back doors on the Pacific. Neai. Dow’s son-in-law, a bank cashier in Portland, Me., is short something like $$7,000 in his accounts, and notwith standing his propinquity to Canada, is now in the clutches of the local authori ties. As the election is over in Maine, it may be said that thoro is no “politics” in the affair. ft It is good news to learn that the mili tary authorities in New Mexico and Ari zona consider that the capture of (Jeroni mo and his hand has put an end to the Indian troubles in that region. The policy of justice and fair dealing put a Btop to tin 1 outbreaks in other localities, and with the untamablo savageB executed or held in durance the long years of In dian warfare uro very near their end. At Key West, Fla., the other day, a facetious newspaper nominated Gen. Abe Sawyer for mnyor, ami the general, who is 20 inches in height and weighs 28} pounds, accepting the compliment in good faith, made public answer as fol lows: “If the people of Key West would elect me mayor I would he nobody’s tool, and I would show the people what a good mayor would do.” Smaller men than Gen. Sawyer have boon elected to even higher positions. Tim governors of the thirteen original states have called a convention of repre sentatives of the federal government and all the states and territories to meet in Philadelphia on December 2d to make arrangements for the centennial celebra tion of the adoption of t he constitution by the convention of 17S7. There is oc casion for several centennials in this con nect ion and it is questionable whether September 171 !i of next year should mo nopolize nil the interest in the premises. The work id the constitutional conven tion did not become valid until it was ratified by the old congress on September lllth, 1788, and the constitution did not go into practical operation until March 4th, 17sd. It was not until April 30tli of the same year that our ship of state was commanded by a full-fledged president. Clearly all the powder ought not to be used up on September 17th, 1887. lO.NUItKSSIUN OATES. We have just perused in pamphlet form the speeches delivered in the house of represjuitatives of the United States congress, Ru ing the present session, by the lion. William C.Oates, member from the third congressional district of Ala bama, on the forfeiture of Northern Pacific land grant and on canals. Mr. Oates opposed the forfeiture of the land grant in that particular case on the legal grounds that rights liad vested, under the law, and that while he would not have voted for the original grant, he wouk not be a party to the oxereise of arbitrary and unauthorized power. Many nice legal points were involved in the discussion, and though questions were constantly fired at Mr. Oates during the delivery of his speech from all parts of the house they found him ready and convincing at all points. If Mr. Oates had never made any other speech, this one aloneis sufficient to establish his reputa tion throughout the government as a pro found lawyer, a man of superb forensic abilities and a painstaking, conscientious legislator. In his speech on the hill to make ap propriations for certain canal projects he opposed the appropriation on constitu tional and other grounds and, as usual, showed himself the champion of law and honest government. The array of facts and statistics which he brought to bear on the subjects dis cussed shows that he keeps himself thoroughly posted on all matters pertain ing to nutional legislation. We are proud of Mr. Oates as a south ern representative. He stands among tiie foremost of the able men of these times. TA< KI.ING THE EAI.SE IMtOPHKTS. Our esteemed cotemporary, the St. Louis Republican, fires hot shot at the false prophets, who it designates as “those innocent republicans.” It says that these innocent republicans who actually believed the predictions of their leaders in the last two presidential cam- ! paigns, that the restoration of the domo- ! cratic party to power would mark the I beginning of the wreck of the country, must feel amazed at- their’own credulity when they find - the blessed land un- wreekud alter eighteen months of demo cratic rule. All is not lost that was achieved by the war; the constitutional amendments have not been nullified; the country has not been set hack to where it was in 18*11; the public credit lias not been impaired; the public debt has not been repudiated; the peniona to union veterans have not been stopped; the rebel debt has not been assumed; pensions have not been given to rebel soldiers; the currency and the revenue have not fallen into dis order; the treasury is not empty; the civil service has not become demoralized; the national bank system has not given place to wildcat state hanks; the national authority has not been degraded, and a great many other dreadful tilings have not taken place. On the contrary, the fignres have a decidedly cheerful look. The cash in the treasury has increased $(18,41(1,000, and the secretary is trying to get rid of the excessive surplus by pav ing it out in $10,000,000lots on the public debt. The debt has been reduced $00,000,(XX), and is being paid off so fast that the national banks are beginning to ask what they are to do when tiiere shall be no more bonds to base tlieir circulation upon. The net revenue of the government has increased $12,740,000, and the net expenditures have diminished $17,700,00; and $7,802,- 000 more has been paid in pensions to union soldiers than was paid in the last year of the last republican administra tion. In one word, the government is more thriftily and economically admin istered under President Cleveland and his democratic cabinet than it was under anyofliiH republican predecessors; and not one of the calamities which formed t he background of the speeches of repub lican leaders in 1884 has come about. A catastrophe lias overtaken the republi can party, it is true, but the country is all the better for it. POETIC POLICEMEN. Atlanta has one of her police arraigned ou the charge of writing poetry This is a very grave charge.—Thonnisvllle Times. Anil pray, why should not an Atlanta policeman, as well as any other of the gifted sons of Adam, give expression to the pent-up fires of his poetic nature? The old proverb is, “Poeta nascitur non fit.” Now everybody knows that At lanta is a great city, and does not hesi tate to tackle anything from a street gamin to a whole army of beer guzzlers, but we never dreamed that she would undertake to' change the current of a poetic nature, oven though that nature was found clothed in a police uniform. We naturally enough are led to wonder which of the many modes of medical treatment, that seem to take quick root and to flourish for a season in her exotic soil, will that unfortunate child of genius lie forced to undergo. Or, may bo, she purposes to use that rare specimen of the genus homo—a poetic policeman—as a subject for t he linal decision and crucial test of the virtues of the endless variety of patent medicines so constantly kept before the eyes of her newsreaders. However that may be, the poor fellow has our heartfelt sympathy, tirst, because ho is not to be permitted, it seems, to follow, as are other freeborn American citizens, the bent and current of liis own nature, but also because of the merciless inquisition lie must suffer while being driven to renounce and forever abjure the muses. Perhaps Atlanta will secure a patent when she shall have found an effectual remedy for this new fangled and dreadful disorder recently breaking out among her pets. If so, then maybe we can purchase a village right; not that wo have noticed any signs of the malady down this way, hut then we might follow the maxim, “In time of peace prepare for war." But, after all, why should it be deemed a strange thing, that a policeman, even in the city of Atlanta, should manifest poet ic tendencies? Do they not stroll about leisurely in the bright light of the silvery moon and gaze at the stars as they scin tillate and coruscate in the overhanging firmament ? And are not these some of the symptoms which always attend poet ic disorders? If the poetic complaint is contracted in that way, then surely po licemen are greatly exposed; and ns pre vention is better than cure we humbly suggest to the solicitous guardians of the Gate City that it would be well for them to offer a premium for the discovery of means by which this malady may be destroyed in the germ; for once fairly de veloped it may become contagious. The gravity of this charge against one of the policemen brings to mind the case against a good old hard-shell deacon who was arraigned before his church, because in one of bis jocular moods lie had said “ the hollow of his foot had never touch ed water.” He plead guilty to the charge but added that in so saying he had told the truth, and that his brethren might l>e fully convinced he shuffled off his brogan and exposed a naked foot, the bottom of which was as flat as a board, whereupon he stood most triumphantly vindicated. Now if it should transpire that the At lanta policemen has been merrily monkeying with the sober-sided aider- men, ami practicing upon them a huge joke, and lie should suffer no harm in the wind-up of his little pleasantry, then we will help him to enjoy the laugh at their expense. There remain in round number* $5)0,000,000 of the three per bent, bonds to lie called. The next series of bonds which will be subject to call are the four and n halfpercents, which do not mature until September, 185)1, five years hence. There are $250,000,000 of these. Then follows a gap of sixteen years before any other bonds are redeemable, with tiie exception of the Pacific railroad bonds, which tiie companies may or may not be made to provide for. The four per cents, of which there are $787,742,850, mature in July, 15)07. It can be seen that, until that time the bonds, unless they arc purchased ata high premium in the market, can not be relied on as they have been in the past for the purpose of absorbing surplus revenue. There must be a reduction of taxation or a course of extraordinary expenditure adopted to meet the situation, and it is not difficult to decide which the people will prefer.
