Tmt Philadelphia Times thinks that "when all the Hoptiblican rascals have been iurned eat there are sevoral on the other side that may need f. little attention." At the pres ent rate, howevor, those “on the other side that may need a little attention" hid fair to remain neglected during the lmlpnce of this eelitnry. The Philadelphia Becord rises to declare that "the Senate did not require President Grant and his immo'Mote successors to ac company suspensions from office with the reasons for making them, and the Senate has no right to make such n demand of Democratic President. There is nothing in the constitution of the United State that requires the President to explain why ho r< moves a public official.” This, from the Philadelphia Becord, hits the hydrophobia scare a staggering blow “Travelers in the East have frequently de. scribed the multitudes of dogs in the streets of Constantinople and other Turkish cities in Europe and Asia. But, strange to say, the dogs do not go mad und there are no cases of hydrophobia among Eastern popu lations. When a Turk is bitten by a dog he calmly accepts his fate, and this is prob ably the reason why he escapes an attack of hydrophobia.” Tub New York Journal of Commerce, in a late issue, says: "Members of tho Cotton Exchange and others were greatly shocked yesterday by news to tho effect that Mr. James Beall, a member of the exchange,and of the firm of James & W. A. Beall, cotton merchants of long standing and high repute in this city, had committed suicide in Georgia, where he was staying on a large plantation desoendod to the members of the firm from their father. The deceased gentleman was highly esteemed, and no oause, unless it was temporary * aberration of mind, can he eonjectured which can have induced the oommisaton of the suicidal act" Mr. Ubnry Harries, at the recent meet ing of the Boyal Meteorological Society, read a paper in which he proved from of- floial data that the Manila typhoon of Sep toolbar 27, 1882, after oroaaing the Pacific, traversed America and the Atlantic Ocean, finally arriving in the Baltic on November 1. This is the most remarkable tracing from day to day of a storm centra of which we have any rocord, tho distance covered by the typhoon exooeding 14,(910 geographi cal miles in tho spuco of thirty-Hix days. The early meteorologists of this century, some of whom doubted whether a cyclone could livo long enough to make the transit of the narrow North Atlantic, would be quite surprised at the reault of Mr. Harries's interesting roeearohes. Now let some of the weather prophet* get on tho trail of the recent blizzard. A new fertilizer la about to be placed in reach of the Southern planter. The Mont gomery Advertiser says: "Mr. Jacob Beese, owner of the basie steel making patent, was interviewed in Birmingham tho other day by the Age, and said some thing of interest to tbe farmers. The iron ores of Alabama are highly pbospharitie, and by the boaio process the phosphorous iaolminated and oomes out in the shape of phoaphate of Umo. Where the ore is high ly phosphatie, the phosphate of lime contains 20 per cent of pnre phospherio acid. This phosphate, aocording to Mr. Beese, is worth $21 per ton as a fertilizer. Aa one-third of a ton of the phosphate ia produced for every ton of steel made, the sale of the fertilizer at $21 per ton would reduce the net cost of a ton of steel by $7. Thus the advantage is doubled the agricultural districts gaining a valuable fertilizer and the cost of basic iron and steel being cheapened to tbe extent of the fertilizer's market value." Upholding the President. Sir. Banda! 1 writes to the Augusta Chron ical as follows: “A very stannch and wise Democrat ad vises that the leading Democratic papers of the country, and notably those of tho South, bear patiently with the administra tion and refrain from making any attacks upon it, trusting that time will set all things right, and allowing for the extraordi nary position of the President and his cab inet. I am told that when tbe Democrats obtained power in the Federal government there was a well founded apprehension lest the export and trained ltepnblican officials might resign in a body, leaving the conduct of the affairs to undisciplined men of an other party. As time wore on, the trouble was that few or none cared to leave their positions at all, being, like bouse cats, not the least in love with the new-comers, but devotedly attached to tbe premises. “In getting many of these persons out, by invitation or otherwise, tbe administra tion has lmd a perplexing experience, mado all the more difficult and exasperating by a hostile Senate und a powerful newspaper press. The Bepublicans now say that they would not have objected to a wholesale sweed, provided it had been made on purely political grounds, but they objected to the offensive partisan pretext and aro disposed to annoy the President because, ns they say, he 1ms given the'signal for the branding of their friends in numerous instances, as well as their decapitation. It is not claimed that the administration has always acted with wisdom, hut it is asserted, with much force, that Democrats had better stand together, in all essential matters, and let the Kepnblieans do tho chief purl of the assaulting. Hard ns this may be, under tho circumstances, it is urgod ns the best policy, and, as an earnest nnd independent observer, willing always to do what seems the most wholesome thing for the benefit of the party, I submit these suggestions for general consideration. I nm tho more inclined to do so, as my voice has not beon silent in condemning what ap peared to he the contradictions and mon strosities of the situation. If pence, har mony, triumph nnd benefit can ensue by a judicious silenee orehuritublo construction, why let us, for a season at least, make the best of our own administration and hope for its future prosperity." Tho South is especially asked to smother its disappointment nnd trust to luck for tho future. Twonty years of waiting nnd disappointment tuny have made the South capable of any sacrifice, but the President nod his advisers are responsible for the lack of confidence nnd cordiality exhibited toward them by the best part of tbe Demo cratic party. The South acceded to tho nomination of Mr. Cleveland with great doubt and anx iety. Tho machine methods by which it was accomplished wore not acceptable to fair and honest men. It took every voto that could bo gathered at any sacrifice to elect him, and those who were disappointed at his nomination, did ns mneh to bring about the result as thoso who had been taken into the ring. It was a mistake in tho administration to bestow wh it few official favors it has dis- triliuted upon those who were actively for Mr. Cleveland, nnd their friends. It was not calculated to produce harmony of feel ing or action. Tho South had a right to expect that the llepnblicnn officials, nntivo nnd imported bo bud linrrassed her for years, would be promptly removed. Sho was disappointed in this, nnd was mortified by being notified that her people should engage in the business of informers, and in order to get rid of bad officials, should furnish affida vits ns to the past acts and characters of 'offensive partisans." It was not pleasant to the Democratic party to be told by tbe man they hail elected to tho highest office of the government, thnt long and nctivo service, should bo consid ered a disqualification for official position. rofessions as to oivi! service reform: have been notably violated by tlie appoint ment <>f^uen to office of bad character and antecedents. Contempt was publicly an nounced as to petititions, and yet these documents were held up aa a shield and excuse for had appointments. Mure sympathy and respect has been Times must be getting very bard in Ne * York city. The World of Friday publishes this card: “Several months ago some unfor tunate, weary of the vicissitudes of free dom, concluded to go into slavery and ad vertised in your columns for a master. If I am not mistaken he succeeded in finding one; and now, if that master of his wants another slave, I am on the block. Thrown snddenly out of employment in the dead of winter, 'alone, nnfriended, melancholy,' though not particularly 'alow,' I am at a loan how to live. My late employer, Talley- rand-like, 'does not see the necessity of it' My father was a cotton plar ter and 1 do not dread slavery.

Otherwise there is nothing before me but to attempt to leap from the Brooklyn bridge. Pao-Si-ivanv Wokas. " party. To this it may be replied that it wonld certainly be unfortnnate—for ilie President Fighting Prohibition. Atlanta is not alone in resistance to pro- blbition. In Iowa (he courts have been ap pealed to, nnd at Dnbuqne Judge Shims 1ms recently delivered this opinion: “He beM thnt he must remand the cases because the plaintiffs, from their petitions, only asked to have patties enjoined from keep ing saloons open,and that this was a proper exercise of police power by the State, and no violation of the provisions of the four teenth amendment of the Constitution of the United States. He clearly intimated, however, that if the plaintiff undertook to restrain a brewery from operating, or in nnv manner to deprive parties of their property without compensation, that then liis ruling might be entirely different. He said that while attorneys in their arguments raised and discussed questions, which, if actually in these cases, might give the Federal courts jurisdiction, still as the plaintiffs did not at tempt to do anything more, according to their petitions, in these cases than to re strain parties from carrying on saloons, he could not now pass upon these questions not fairly arising in the petitions for in junction nnd retain jurisdiction. Tho hold ing of Judge Shiras does not nt all deter mine that any proceeding to cDjoin a brew ery under the Iown statute would be con stitutional, but on the contrary rather inti mates that in such a case he would retain jurisdiction, on the ground that such res traint would bo depriving tho brewers of property without due procesB of law. Judge Brewer, circuit judge, has giveD a similar opinion, which Judge Shiras said he approved and followed. Tho defendants gave notice of an appeal to tho Supreme Court of the United States, and this will probably tie up the case for a year or so longer. The intimation is strong and clear that the property of men engaged in the liquor bnsiness can not be confiscated without compensation. The United States Supreme Court has not yet met this point fairiy, but will be compelled to do so before litigation on tbe subject is ended. Kxtromo Cold. The lowest temperature recorded by the late Greely exploring expedition in the arctic regions was G3 below zero. The tel egrams reports this morning a temperature of 48 below zero in Montana and mercury frozen in tho instruments. Fifteen degrees makes but little difference with mankind when such an extreme is encountered. The people who endnre Montana weather can safely endure the colds of the orotic wilds, l’ractically, there is no difference just now between Montana and Camp Groely. shown for the Mugwump deserters than for the rank and file of the democracy who won tha Presidential victory, and the Pres ident himself has made grievous mistakes passing over prominent and deserving Democrats to search for “hidden merit." The party in Congress is torn up into factions, ami the outlook fra naeful ses sion and the strengthening of the party ia by no means bright. For all of this the administration, and not the Democratic press, is responsible, Tbe Democratic press will sustain and uphold tho- hands of the administration, whenever it places itself in positfon, where this can be honorably and consistently done. The evangelist business bas produced an other "boy preacher.” A EaleigB, N. C., special says: “A most remarkable case, which is attracting much attention in this section, bos given fresh fuel to the fire of superstition.' Itomnlus Sturdivant is an estimable citizen residing in Wale county. He has a son named John, aged sixteen yenrs. This boy stated to an assemblage last week that he had received direct in junction from God to preach the Gospel to all nations of the earth and that this in junction had been accompanied by a decla ration on the part of tho Almighty that in order to further tbe confidence of the people in the special call made upon him the boy would be ninde blind for two days nnd nights. In strict accord ance with this divine tbrodt tho boy was stricken blind at eleven o'clock last night nnd still continues in that condition, hut ho says ho will be restored to-morrow night. He says God also told him thnt if people did not believo the in junction given another command nnd tost wonld be instituted. The boy preached his first Bermon last Thursday night, nnd last night preached again. He says thnt God prescribed tho text, which was taken from I. .Samuel, twelfth chapter and latter clause of second verse, "I have walked before yon from my childhood nnto this day.” Tho boy has been attending school. He is in good health and has the ordinary eduen- oation of boys of his years. While preach ing he appears as if asleep or in a trance, hat when the benediction ia announced he ^irows out his arms and shows evidence of renewed life. The "Reason." Wanted. It is ridiculous to suppose that the Pres ident ought to Send in to the Bepublicans the Senate his reasons for each removal he has ordered since taking office. It would he unfortunate if the President of the United States should become involved thousand trials before tho Bcpuhlicon majority of tho Senate sitting ss a high court. Tbe only body that hns any right to de mand “reasons" of the President is the Democratic majority iu the House, and the reasons they want, as representing tho great Democratic party, are those that keep him, tbe head of that party, from removing the remaining Bepublican office-holders wbo are, as to the dismissed, as 8 is to 1; and the reasons that prompted him to ap point Bepublicans. Perhaps it may be said that it wonld also be unfortunate if the Democratic President of tho United State* should become in volved in such t> trial before the Democratic A naval officer just returned from tho China station says that the family of ex- Senator Withers, of Virginia, who succeed ed Colonel Moaby as consul at Hong Kong, is making a stir in society. One of the young women of his family wears phenom enally short dresses, much above liar boot tops, and goes about announcing herself "a Democrat and a Virginian." At a naval ball tbe bluff and pompous old English governor of the colony said patronizingly: “Tnt, tut, little one, yon must wear the gown a bit longer than that when you come to the government house," Young Virginia drew herself up and hurled this speech back full at the great dignitary: “When I want your advice about my dress, old man, I’ll ask you for it.” “There has not been such a bold rebuff of the British lion,” says the officer in question, “since the battle of Lexington, and we now have an aggressive policy atone spot on the globe at least." the peaches and kill off the chestnut crop! —Newark News.
