On the other hand, the sunate, a very much smaller Insly, has preserved Ihe right of de bate, but practically last the jnm-cr to act.' It has become a mere debuting club, whose mcuibcm are perfectly willing to let the business of the coun try go to ruin while they exercise it right of debate already so abused Uqit nobody pays much attention to what they are saying.

Apparently, like their Hpun.sh-Ameri can prutotypi-s, having fulled to gain power through legal method*, they In tend to seizo upon It by force, under the pretense that they ure'actiuited'by the higliest, most tmnclllsli motives. If this la not tliclr lutcullou, the follow ing paragraphs of their manifesto linve a meaning too obscure for the ordianry rottiler to tllseovcr: •The condition In thta atate has reached a dim**. There ta no doubt that the atate ticket beaded by Cspt. H. F. Kolb has been elected. The alternative I* pre- •enled ot submission to wrong, maolt and robbery, br to assert the sovereign power before which thruneo totter, sceptre* tall and the outrages of the tyrants reuse. That attemattvo must meet a reaponac front manhood or silent aubmlaoton from those unworthy of cltltenihlp. A proud and cMVnlnm* people, worthy of freedom, cannot shirk the responsibilities the situa tion enforces. A distinguished i-atrtol has asserted that 'the man who will not tight for hta liberty Is unworthy ot freedom.' We do not advise ttghtlng or lawlessness of any kind, but tho crista has arisen which demand* that tho sovereign power shall assert Itoelf to compel unworthy servant* of It* will to aubml! to It* power and recognise Its authority. "Your copunlllee recognise* that tt has been Intrusted, with certain duties, and that Its powers am circumscribed, hnd tt foelo authorised only In going to the extent of advising and urging these whom It represents to exeretse the power vested In them and to hold meeting* on Thurs day, the 3d day of August, at the re- apectlvo court houses, If not otherwise apeetlted, to act upon'this great crlou and to Insist that manhood, patriotism and lova of liberty, w hich ho* alwaya in voked prompt and decisive action from them, shall Hnd expression In their count* that will Ip; creditable to their revolu tionary Hires and furnish a precedent In our history to which all ( wtll ever revert with pride and satisfaction.

NAPOIvEON'S ESCAPES. Ho Seemed to Llvo In a Charmed Circle und,Went About With No Feast. In reply tb a nutation in what in- gsgemenis he considered himself to have been In the greatest danger of los ing hi:, life, Napoleon once said: "In the commencement ot my campaigns.” Indeed, If further proof were demanded to sU'oyv that he did not spare himself at Toulon, it la only heceaenry to add that during the ten weeks of It* edge Nupoleon. in addition to u- bayonet Wound In hte thigh, had three u'orses *hot under 1dm, while ut the eelge of Acre, during the expedition of Egypt, ha lost no fewer than four in the tame manner. , During the lost ten days of his life, when mtptlvlty, disappointment and sickness hi 1 well-nigh completed their work. It Is said that agony of hte fatal diecuBe direw from him on many occa sions the pitiful cry of "Why did the caisnon balls spare mo?” During his long military career Na poleon fought sixty battles, while Cae- ear fought but titty. In the oarly port of his career he was utterly wrecklese ot danger while on tile buUle-fleld, nnd thle spirit of fearlessness contributed largely to the love aad esteem In which he was belli by his armies. There was a curious belief a-moivg the English In Napoleon's time that be had never been weunded. and indeed the report was current that he carefully, If not in a cowardly manner, retrained from ex posing himself. Nothing could be more contrary to the truth, for he was In reality several time wounded severely, but, ns he wished to Impress upon his tdiopa the belief that good fortune never deserted him, and that, Uke Ach illes, He wa* well-nigh Invulnerable, he always made u secret of his many dan gers. -He therefore enjoined, once for all. upon the part of his Immediate staff the most absolute silence regarding all circumstances of this nature, for It' is almost Impbwdble to -calculate the con fusion and disorder which would have resulted from the slightest report or the amalleet doubt relative to h|s exis tence. Upon the single threat of this man’s life depended not bnly thn fate twill government of a great empire, hut the whole policy and destiny of Europe as well. BHEYTriKs! . Ouo of tlio advantages’ of tlib Mfhdh of typo-setting is that n man eon work ut >t up to a later period of life than uteu can work at most other trades. Every now uud then stories are priuted about working compositors who are HO yenra old or over, but there arc cor- tuluiy not intiuy blacksmiths or car penter* or engineers or bricklayers or Imlters or pressmen who can follow their tmdu at that ago.

The recent death of Julea Martin of Paris has unexpectedly enriched a de serving young btendhisoeuse of that metropolis, named Henrietta tjlmon. Toe late M. Martin was an eccentrio millionaire without 'relative*. He had decided to leave hie property to the tlnil perron giving undouted proofs of honesty. To carry out this scheme hs rode about day alter day la atrect cars and omnibuses.

From the London'Globe. , i Egyptologists have no long been oc cupied w4th the Pyramids sntl Uh'er monuments of the best periods of Egyptian art that Professor Flinders Petrie may be sold to'have broken new ground In a double sense by hie exca vations on the Nile. He threw a light on the eirller etager «< Egyptian civil ization by hi* researches at Medum and elsewhere, showing that the bronse age was preceded by it copper uge, and these a gain by awtoue age, old and new, that is to say. a period lasting b n ay be tor thoi>and* ot years In whlcn blades of chipped or polished flint and greenstone, similar to tluv-e of prehis toric Europe, were in use. ' Ills dtocpverie* at Kotitos during three month* of lust winter, which are ;io* v on view at University college, include u large number of stone Implements, narneiy, paleolithic celts ol chipped flint and polished ones of greenstone, ua veil aa cutting blades PI dint. It is curious to observe that some ot those latter have serrated edges, and were fitted -Into a carved wojden frame to furni a slckl.t tor reaping corn, and that this curved frame Is of similar shape to the Jawbone of a cow with the teeth In it, which -probably wa* the primitive nickle. Professor Petrie remarks that per haps the "Jawbone of an n*s," witn wnlcli Sampoon slew the Phlllsitlnes, was really an implement of some sort which had derived its name ot "Jaw bone” from a more primitive imple ment, the actual bone, tn feet, of which It wo* an imitation. We have an ex ample of Uhls kind in our English word ••chisel,” which is the Anglo-Saxon for a flint (e. g., "chesll"); tne stone tool having given It* name to the metal one that succeeded It. ft has been inferred by Egyptologist* t-hut the founders of Che historic dy nasties of Egypt came from the lower end of the Red 8ea, end oa -the ruin, of, rather, the mound, of Koptos, or Kuft, stands on the east sids of the Nile, about thirty miles above the site of Thebes, and at the termination of the ancient road to the red sea by which Hie immigrants -must have come. Pro fessor Petrie was delighted to selxo the occasion offered Mm of excavating Kloptos, because there, if anywhere, Ive might expect to find a confirmation of ihe Inference. , The result* ‘tt three months work last winter have Justllled the hypothe- als. Among other evidences, ligures of the ew'ord nsh and ehark un the sculp tures Indicate the udvent of n maritime people. Professor Petrie supposes them ot have been Phoenicians, who had set tled on the coast of the Red sea, the Island of Phun. 'or Punt, as they set tled on the shores of the -Mediterranean at Carthage, »lvin« rise to the Punic war. They’were probably less clvillned than the Egyptians, as were the north ern barbarians who took advantage or the confusion caused by the breaking up of the Komun Empire to establish themselves in the south Pf Europe. They were for centuries In Egypt be fore they bu4lt Memphis, and Profes sor Petrie conjectures the date of their Invasion us somewhere about 8,000 B. a The Mesophotamhvns are another ra cial element .In the ancient Egyptian people, and the port they pluyed ta awaiting further research. Professor Petrie thinks that the early Egyptians were -a cross between the black races of the south -and tha-t white race of northern Africa which is thought to have came from -Europe. There were other racial elements In the country, but these have not been well lflentldod. A DREAM OF THE AGES. Tlie Restoration of the Jews to Their , . Ancient Luds. From tbc Sjn Francisco. Examiner. The rroont nnd sudden growth of the Jewish population In Puleatine b hailed In muny quarters as the begin, nlug of the renllxatton of tine dream of centuries, Hie flrat practical Atop to ward H>.‘ loatorarion of the Jews to tbelr ancient lands. The movement hu» undoubtedly assumed surprising atreug-ih. It Is now esUmiwd chat In tlie past eeven year* over 100,000 Jew* in-a.\V entered Palestine from other countries, and the number Is Increas ing ot a a rapid rate yearly. The Idea of a reronquest of Palestine nnd the re ed.ublirJtment of a Jewish kingdom In Jerusalem has been held to by the raoe through Jong centuries of perse cution. It wa.; promised by their prophets, end, like otw.-r prophecies, It -tends to ft* own fulfilment. The social and political treatment to which the race ha* been subjected has doubtless fixed u only more firmly In thbhr belief, and spttrrod the hope into action at the Aral opportunity.. Sentiment lx a powerful factor in life —yet It is not probx-ble chat tlie move ment now In program Is going to result In the settlement of the bulk of the Jewteh race on the soil of their fore- Mthers. The hundred 'thousand JY*ws may multiply -to a mlllon by lmmlgrn Hon. and Jewlxh yrwtlth and enterprise may break (town the barriers raised by a Jealous and despotic government, ovvreome the difficulties set by nature, and make Palestine nnd Syria astrong Jewish community. But there are something over 7,000.000 Jews In the world. There are nearly half n million in the United States. In most of the civilised tends they hold wealth an/1 power, and In many they are nsxlml- lated In thought nnd custom 4o the peo Pic among whom they live. It Is not to be supposed that the rarie Instinct will be strong enough to call the Jews from Che comfont they enjoy In Amer lea and England, for Instance, to take their place In the regeneration of Pal estine. The Jew who Is despised nnd mobbed and robbed tn Russia nnd Aus- trit. ntvl other lands wihere prejudloe rule*, may long to get back to the home of his ftuhers, and will go there when the mean* are provided. But it lx not to be expeett-d that the men who Join the colonizations chemo from America and western Europe will form more than n small body of enthusiasts. COLOR WAR IN A FRENCH SCHOOL.- From the London Telegraph. Truculent warfare Is being carried cn batween the white and the colored stu dents of the Colonial school tn Parts. This Institution ls a nursery for colonial officials, and among the candidate* for future posts In Tonqulu, Senegal and other place* are negroes aad half-castes. A few days ago Lacaocode, a young Creole. ha/1 a quarrel with Deechaux, a French man. who challenged him to a duet and Inalsted that htx seconds should be Isbite. I.acascade, however, chose two Creoles to assist him on the field, bu( Dcrehaux and Ms men refused to arrange a duel. An umpire, or arbitrator, was then ap pointed. Thla student, a Frenchman, de cided that La cascade was the offended person, as he had been grossly Insulted In a letter without cause. Deechaux’* second# refused to accept the deoslon and referred the matter to M. Iiuc, deputy for Guadeloupe, and to N. Serin Des- places, librarian at the Luxembourg, who Is of Senegalese origin. The new arbi trators also took the part of Lacasmde. and the duel then came off tn the ltols de Boulogne. Pistol* were seed, four shots were Bred, and La cascade era* hit In the right leg. There wa* subsequently * sword duel be tween a white end a colored eecond, the former rt reiving an ugly thrust In the stomach.
