The Influenza now preralent in Ger many, the physicians pronounce a milder type than that of 1880. Atlanta claims to hare found the ’boss liar. Wonder how far they bad to -go from the carsbed to capture Mm. Sullivan In San Francisco and Statin in Iiondon. That doesn't aoom as If the two master spirits of the ring will ever oome together. Still their preliminary reaBvenea* la a good symptom. -Tom Bibs will be rtry troublesome in the present Congress, and It will require a cool-headed chairman to turn him down It la no use disguising the foot that Reed la an exoeedlngly bright and ■tggnuim foe. Has the gubernatorial bee ceased to buss around tho bonnet of Evan P. How ell? The Colonel knows a good thing when bo sees It, tnd gubernatorial nomi nations don’t grow on tree*, nor have they any affinity to “Carter’s oats.” “As scarce as ben teeth” Is the way the number of Tom Weison's friends Is slsed up. Tbe slippery Tom le out In s card in tbo People’s Party organ defend- Inp bla Indefensible conduct and trying to explain sway his Judos Iicariot con duct. Haw York I* deprived of a magnifl cent charity omouutlng to 80,000,000 by a decision of tbe Supreme Court, which hold* that n trust established in that city by the will ol Joso 8evllla, wealthy Peruvian, who resided In New York, is Invalid beoause It is in violation of tho laws of the State. Mills walki around Congressional balls with the some languid air that marked tbe carriage of tbe “ghoat of John James Benjamin Blnns,” who was out down In tho midst of bis manifold alna Mills sulks will not exalt him In the esteem of the people of the United States, and he will And It out sooner or .later, “Old family skeletons are clothed with flesh and blood, and old family ghosts ore made to apeak” in Part 3 of the Supremo Court, before Justice Pat terson yesterday in Naw York. John Anderson’s vast estates are In litigation In Now York. Hls daughter claims that his spiritualistic- hobblee should Inrall- date bis will. All the eccentricities of the dead man were recalled and urged against the validity of tbe will and all tbe old family skeletoni were material I zed. Tbe progress of the suit I* watched with growing Interest. The estate amounts to 810,000,000. In the death of Bishop Gallelier, New Orleans has lost a noble Christian gen tleman and mankind a friend, who will bo mourned throughout the length and breadth of the South where ho was so well known and beloved, by not only the members of bis own particular church, but also by peopla of other re ligious denominations with whom be was thrown Into contaot. Hls whole reoord os a citizen, n soldier of hls oountry and • priest of God, hot boon one of honor, ol faithful service and of work well done. The rest and tbe joyeof the Kingdom of Heaven is the earnest prayer of his sorrowing friends. Theri is force and pith In this ad vice. It Is significant and moans good as well as your*. We know that the garrulous, hallucinated, unending talker, who geti yon by tbe button-bole and holds on interminably, la e that need* some Jag or “puneh In the ribe” to let him know it le time to stop? Experience shows that a proper sense of the fitness of things as to the relative equities and Just measure of a conversa tion, does not enter Into hie calculations or at all regulate the continuity of hU outpourings. And so he continues to lop oh, until at last, tired with waiting for a period to occur, you abruptly out tho string and sever the connection.—Ex. A UNITED PARTY. The election of Speaker Crisp on Mender was s decisive atep In this direction, unites tbe democratic party In ConxrrBi and throughout the rouutry. It It a victory for conservative democracy, n victory for com mon seme. It Is oot s persons trlnmpb for Crisp, Hill or Tammany, nor for Smltb L Brown or Robinson, but a 'riuirpb for tbe whole party. Us effect will bs to destroy all ollqaes, all raufwumpa, crooks Isms sad hybrid local factions of every strips. Tbs conservative forest of democracy now itan united os a truly notional party and appeal to tbs sober oonunon eense of the American people, who have had enou*h of narrow minded extremists—Herald. Tbe Herald holds the opinion that the election of Speaker Crisp will mark tbe brightest day the Democrats have seen for many years. Taxation for revenue only is the cue, and with moderation and conservatism as the trump cards, there remains no reason why the record of the 52nd Congress shonld not stand In vivid contrast with the “Ulllon dol lar” one. The Democratic rag-bag will be turn ed iuslde out In eearch of a suitable standard bearer who will offer the aaau- rance of vlotqry In 1892. Crisp Is a con servative, calm, cool leader, pledged to such measures of reform as tbe time is ripe for, and that will be feasible and popular. When hi* gsrel fell it called to order a united Democratic party, zealous In tariff reform and pledged to an Improve ment in the fin- nolol conditions of the oonntry. KATBKtt PLACOIU. Harrison's message to the 32nd Con gress, reviewed In extanio, was not a robust document, nor was tho various subjects handled with any exceptions! tact or ability, but It Is'rather a rehash of pre*a descriptions of certain occur rences that claimed popular notice dur ing tbb by-gone year. HI* methods of treating foreign and diplomatlo relations are novel and with out preoedent. There la no sturdiness of conviction apparent, bnt a shuffling eva sion of the questloni In hand, cloaking them under an avalanehe uf glittering generalities. For a man, occupying tho dignity be does, tbe message is an abortive product of a mind trammelled and polionod by the most malignant typo of partisanship. Blaine evidently had little to do with tbo construction of this frail effort and if he did.it was a shrewd .finesse on the pnrt of the “plumed knight" to guillo tine politically the drivelling figure-head now enjoying tho most exalted civic honor within the gift of the people. THESE DECEMBER MORNINGS. The crisp air these froety mornings contains tho very elixir of life; It ie the «rine of the gods, served on Ice end with out glass. It sends the blood coursing through the veins and exhilarate* the mind oa rare old wine. Nature hoe adopted tbe "free coinage of silver," and aoatten It over the earth with s prodigal hand. Every bare tree that stands out os a silhouette against the aky wears a silver fringe, every dry blade of grass Is transformed Into a sil ver spear, end the loot leaf on tho tree has become a silvery shining heart With a touoh of the magic wand of Jock Frost, Dams Nature become* trans formed from a rural oonntry mold, with all her crudities Apparent, into s beauti ful belle of tho boll, with glittering pen dente of diamonds, a crown of pearls, and a robe of filmy silver. Germany has lost no time in getting square with Franco and Russia for their recent coquetries. She has not declared armed war against those nations. For war in these day* is apt to act like a boomerang, and governments are sby of It. Bat she may have chosen quite ae effective a means of harming her foes by forming the new and formidable Zollnreln described In U. Jacques St. Cere’s Herald’s dispatches. “France must have her Industrial Sedan," onoesald Bis marck. Tbo new league may not prove so disastrous to France as Bismarck might wish, hut It win oost her a good many millions. The Indisputable truth 1* that ou all the issue* betwteu parties the record of Crisp Is ee pronounced and unimpeacli able as that of Mills, while * majority of th* members who know them both con sider Crisp a better organizer and leader of hot parliamentary contests, a safer and better presiding officer for tho House, “Tlisrv’a nothin* hair so sweet la I .Ik As love’s yoan* dAeara;” Except, perhaps, the (toUu« asset That thnlia son throo*h, from bead to (tot.

And, llodln* It Is really food With joy yon scream. -New Yolk Herald. The Wilmington, (N. C.), devote* a column to the linguistic eaeo- prdes of noted authors,.showing that they like kindred of n more vulgar mould may “some time nod.” The genesis of some of the errors that are now In cur- rent me may frequently be traced back to loo iguuntuce of grammatical rules on the port of some literary celebrity, whose name gave currency to tbe error. Take, for example, a man like William Makepeace Thackery, one of the glories of hls country and one of the highest manifestations of genius In the literary world. He ha* had few equals as • writer of admirable, clear ana finished English. Yet this muter of Anglo- Saxon blundered sometimes, not Ignor antly. but careleuly. Then cannot leu gifted mortal* slip up occuionally? BAR6AIN Week ■AT.
