A. Miu.ek, Cbair’n. All political thought will be cen¬ tered on St. Louis today, although the convention’s proceedings cm be easily forecast. It will be Cleveland, Thurman and a bold and unequivo¬ cal demand for tariff reform. On Snnday Jefferaon Davis waa eighty years of age. His atep is fee ble and his eye ia dim, and before many days the moat illustrious actor on the •rent of the nineteenth can tnry will be gathered to his fathers. The bitterness wivb which Gen, Harrison opposes Jadge Gresham is almost equal to that with which ex Senator McDonald opposes Gov. Gray. It begins to look like McDon aid has knocked out Gov. Gray, and perhaps Harrison and Gresham will an ceeed in knocking out each other. The Boston Advertiser is disposed to donbt the statement that the cole r ed man in the South is allowed to vote as he pleases. A good m any people also doubt that the white mao in the MaMacbnsetta manufactory is allowed to vote as he pleases. If the Advertiser is going to start ont on the work of reforming the ballot, let it begin at home. Mr. W. J. Arkell, editor of Judge, aays that unless a strong protection¬ ist is nominated at Chicago, his publication will be independent dur iug the campaign. Evidently Mr. Arkell fears the convention will notni nate Judge Gresham. On the other side, Puck is obliged to be for Cleveland, whomever tho Republicans may nominate. It can't go baca on Cleveland’s tariff reform policy. A Pundit 1 * Sly Trick. About 500 years ago there waa a cele¬ brated pundit of Nudya, who waa par¬ ticularly fond of country spirits, and used to take about a quart of it every day. People suspecting One him of this weakness watched him. evening, when lie wa* returning from his vesper prayers at the riverside, he was seen to come out on the sly from a grog shop, with his water pot full of aniseed arrack, and he was taxed by the crowd for conduct so dis¬ reputable in a Brahmin of his learning and sanctity. He denied the charge, and placed the vessel before his accuser, w hen loi it appeared to contain milk. A miracle! a miracle! cried tho crowd, and the pundit, instead of being degraded, was canonized; the fact being that the wily toper knew well that aniseed liquor, mixed with a little water, becomes milky, and be had prepared it accord¬ ingly.— Report of British Commission. bra,kt«r or Doggie T Mistress (severely)—Mane, didn’t I hear you make use of the expression ‘you little brat’ in the nursery just now?
