Only aix HUHpeurtions or removals have
bssn made in Georgia, but as w# look over
the list of men substituted, we aro im
pressed with tbs idea that six is quite enough
for the present ptogramme.
Nym Chinklk, the able oritio of the
World, is to lecture. HU scheme U to prove
that Bob Ingersoll errs in stating that there
is no hell, and he will illustrate the subject
with maps and diagrams of Pensaoola.
Whm an office-is-a-pnblic-trust sort of a
President illustrates the sweet simplicity of
Civil Service reform by putting in office
men whose records ere more odorous than
attractive, the best thing for him to do
probably is to stand baok on his dignity
and refuse to be investigated.
PniHiDKNT Ci.xvKi.AND has so far sus
pended or removed only six office-holders
in Georgia of the number whioh have to
be appointed with the advice and consent
of the Senate. This is in the nature of an
endorsement of the Republican party, but
it is an endorsement that the Georgia peo
ple do not endorse.
Tub Schenectady Union says: "That
< »t no ml Butler's prophecy is probably right
u great majority of the American public
would undoubtedly agree. It seems hardly
possible that Mr. Cleveland can regain pop
ularity with bis party. He has manifested
a deference to civil service reform and a
disposition to independence quite at vari
ance with the spirit of Democracy. He
does not agree with the majority of his
party on fiuancial questions. He could
hardly hope to gain by a radical change in
methods and preaching, for be would there
by lose the rospect of the people. It seems
settled that Air. Cleveland oannot be re-
nomiuated."
A CAiiueoiiAM in the Herald states that
Mr. Gladstone writes his report on the
proceedings for the Qaeen every night, the
only visible sign of his willingness to per
form his duty to the crown. The report
seems short, and is probably As dull as the
debates. Everybody notices that tho Prem
ier looks fagged and very old. The last
great and terrible strain to which he is about
to expose hU party cannot be faced with a
light heart. He has implaoable foes in
front, wavering friends behind and new
and untried colleagues by his side. His
position is unequalled in parliamentary
history. Utter ruin or the greuUst success
of his life awaits him. The issue no man
alive can foresee.
A Romance or the Hea.
The history of Mrs. Elizabeth Mount'h
.adventures in the North 8ea, the most
perilous of all the *ea*, reads like a
romance woven from the brain of an Edgar
Poe. Yet the main facts seem to be sub
stantiated, and the story iH given credence
by the leading journals of England and this
country.
Mrs. Monat is a poor fisherman's widow
and resides on one of the Shetland Islands.
She is sixty years of age, and lame. Re
cently she set sail aboard the Columbine, a
small fishing craft, for Lerwick, where she
wanted to consult a physician. Leaving
Lerwick, the little vessel, with its crewr of
three men and its solitary passenger, be
came involved in a boisterous sea. The
mainsail parte 3, the captain was swept
overboard, and the two sailors, man
ning the life-boat, went to his
rescuo only to find themselvess
too late and nnable to reach the ship again.
The men reached shore after a rough experi
ence, the Columbine drifted out of sight,
and the news was flashed over the country.
Steamers went to her resoue and returned
with nothing to report. The story of the
lost boat with the aged passenger went on
record and was almost forgotten.
But Providence watched over the lost hu
man being and held her in the hollow of
His hand. The Bails wore out, as the ship
rolled. Hunging by one hand to a rope
suspended from the ceiling, nnable to
reach the deck and subsisting upon a
handful of biscuit, but undaunted,
the brave woman held on to hope for seven
days and nights. The storma swept over
the ill-fated croft, spinning it in circles,
dragging it stern foremost and tearing the
masts from their sockets. Without light,
chilled by the bitter cold of the storm for
1C4 hours, this frail woman resisted death
and fought oil despair.
Finally the Columbine struck a rock in the
night time. For hours it ground and
bnmped upon the reef, threatening to go to
pieces. The morning broke, and dragging
herself along the floor, the famished, frozen
creature succeeded in reaching the hatchway
and in getting her head and shoulders out.
Laud lay before her— land and human be
ings. 8h© was saved. Who can portray
the agony of that week, the joy of that final
hour? In a week more she was back in
Edinburgh, and her story in overy man's
mouth.
How fate seemed to mock the powors of
humanity. Men go down into the seas in
great ships. Tho perfection of invention
and the resources of science are invoked to
guarantee them safety; yet they re
turn no moTo. Alone, upon a dismasted
shell a helpless woman crosses tho stormy
North sou in winter, and tho plank between
her and the watery dt'pths strands in tho
only port within miles of whore it struck.
Is it irony, or does tho Almighty choose
thus to demonstrate that He has power over
the deep? and the wind and waves obey
His will?

They say that State Senator Tom Mer-1
ritt went to call upon President Cleveland
when he was in Washington during the
Christmas holidays. He received a hearty
welcome, for the President had heard of
Tom, of course, and he had a nice long
talk with tho humorous statesman from
Egypt. “I am surprised," said Mr. Cleve
land, “that you have never visited Wash
ington before." “Well, the t-t-rouble is,"
said Tom in explanation, “t-that I in-made

Streamed thick and feat ou tha window-pane.

A Little Song.
Little aong I fain would sing.
Why dost thou elude mo uuf
Like a bird upon the wing.
Sailing high, sailing low,
Yet forever out of reach.
Thou dont vex me beyond measure.
Unallured by prayer or apeoch.
Waiting thine own time and pleasure!
Well 1 know thee, tricksy sprite—
1 could rail thee by the name;
1 have woed the day and night.
Yet thou will not own my claim.
Hark! thou'rt hovering even now
In the soft atill air above me—
Phantasy or dream art thou.
That my heart's cry cannot move thee?
Little aong I never sang.
Thou art sweeter than tliu strain
That through ©tarry maxes rang.
Klrat-boni child of Joy and pain,

From some all-compelling voice
Swelling high, serenely, p urelv,
I shall bear thee and rejoice!

Repentance.
Detroit Free Press.
The sexton of a Methodist church in
certain village in Alabama is Enoch Smith,
a negro, about 60 years of age. In his own
church Enoch stands somewhat higher,
being a member of the board of stewards,
and, no far as the future is concerned, with
very fair chance of promotion.
A little thing happened the other day,
which, but for the unfortunate disclosure
of himself by the perpetrator of the joke,
would without doubt nave elevated Enoch
in the opinion of his bre.hren, but alas!
Late Saturdry afternoon, Enoch was en
gaged in making the white people’s oburch
ready for next day’s services. The soli
tude of the place was rendered more fearful
by a heavy rain, thunder and lightning
outside, and Enoch is excusable for feeling,
as he expressed it, “mighty jnbous." A
negro druymau sought refuge from the
rain in the church porch, and, when he
looked into the church and saw the sexton
with his back turned, he stealthily entered,
and concealed himself under the benches.
The sexton swept, the lightning flashed,
the thunder rolled -and then came a still
ness, which was at length broken by a
voice, uttering in sepulchral tone the one
word:
“Enoch!"
Enoch turned around bat saw no one
he quivered; his flesh began to creep.
Again, londer, more awful;
“Enoch!"
Enoch with both hands held the broom,
but answered not -bis heart clogged the
way. Once more in tones of thunder came
the words;
Enoch! Turn, and come over on de
Lewd's side!"
Enoch felt that it was answer or die, end
so by a mighty effort he swallowed his
heart and literally screamed forth;
“Yea, ray lewd!"
“How many wives you got?' said the
voice.
Enoch was now beside himself with ter
ror, aud, falling upon his knees, chanted ut
the top of his voice;
“O! Marse Jesus! Yon know hits five
widout er axin' uv me, but spar me now,
spar me now’n’ I’ll gin nm all up! Yas,
good Lawd, spar po* Enoch jes’ dis oncet—"
Hero the familiar voico of Ben Andrews, the
drayman, inquired;
“What’n old Hairy are you hollerin’
about?"
Enoch gave vent to a resonant groan of
mingled relief and chagrin, and, as the laugh
ing questioner arose, resumed Iris sweeping
with the remark:
“I seed yer when yor fust came in.”

Tub Bouton Advertiiior nays: ‘‘We must
confess that, much aa wa desire tho black
man at the Ronth tallied from hia ignor
ance, we do not believe that the seventy-
aeven million bill, in ita preaent distorted
form, ia a wise engine to put in operation
to affect the purpose. Senator Blair, in hia
eagernni to silence all criticism, selfish aa
well as patriotic, has constructed a measure
which has neither unity ot theory nor ain-
eerily of pnrpoee. Ho has loaded hia gnn
no heavily that its kick will he more forcible
than its discharge. Hia schema may edn-
cute the negro, hut it will demoralize the
school system ot the Noith and West at tha
same time. And there ia good reason to
believe that the schools of the Ronth will
do as well, in ths long run, without it”
flow to Revive Them.
It ia complained that the whole country
U drifting away from old cnatoma and pa
triotic methoda; that Washington's Birth
day ia a dead holidny and the Fourth of
July by no means what it ahonld be now
adays; that r grand patriotic renaiaaance is
demanded to bring into view again the
proud history of the republic. There ia
foroe in the thonght.
Bat these days have lost caste, because no
sane or intelligent method of celebrating
them has been suggested to take the place
of Chineso firecrackers and cheap whisky.
What is needed now is for Congress to take
the lead in checking this lamentable decline
by an innovation, bold, spectacular side
splitting and beneficial. This is by no means
impossible. Why not celebrate Fourth of
July by a week'a festivities in Washington
city. Ray tarn loose all the female suf
fragists in the country npon Congress tor a
joint debate from July 1st to Hth, and force
every Congressman to bo in place; and give
the temperance leaden a showing on Wash
ington's Birthday. There is no doubt but
that this would make two of our holidays
popular, and afford fnn for the country.
The ancient circus at Home would be as a
miserable side show compared to it.
Defended and Indited.
The minority report of the Henate judi
ciary committee defends the President as
against the Republican party, and indites
him in behalf of the Democratic:
“No other President had aver been sub
jected to such a savers trial or had to meet
so many grave difficulties, and no othsr had
snch an abundant supply of valid reasons
and causes urging him to the free exercise
of his power of removal from Federal office,
and no other ever resisted with more fair
ness the just claims of hia supporters or
need his power of removal more conscien
tiooaly, cautiously and sparingly.''
So says the report. The fact that the
President acted in a conscientious manner
is made prominent, but not more prominent
than the fact that "the abundant supply of
valid reasons and causes urging him to the
free exercise of his power of removal'' and
the “just chums of his supporters” have
failed to cause him to discharge his duty
toward tha Democratic party.
Tha Republican party asked for the
censes which impelled him to remove cer
tain officer*. The Democratic party has a
pardonable cariosity to learn why the “just
claims of his supporters" have been ig
nored, when he was in possession of an
abundant supply of valid reasons and
canaea urging him to the free exercise of
his power of removal.
What is it restrains the Democratic Pres
ident who, thoroughly armed with causes
and reasons, resists tha “just demands of
hia supporters?" We suspect that it is ths
Mugwump. Why did not tha minority of
tho judiciary committee indite tha Mug
wump also?
Death o( Pelham.
Dudley il. Chase, late captain Seven
teenth United States Infantry, writes to the
Bivouac claiming that one of hia infantry
men killed Major FsUuun at tha battle ot
Chancellors ville. He eays:
"In our front was an open field, and if
recollect aright it bad been plowed. On
the top of a rise in this field I noticed some
Confederate artillery nnlimbered. The
limber*rs went to the rear out of light to
oa, and the artillerymen fell to the ground.
Directly I saw a splendidly mounted officer
ride np to the gnns, and an officerarooe and
saluted him. Just at this moment Frank
Robinson, one of my men, not being able
to resist firing at auch a good target, fired at
the mounted officer and knocked him from
hit horse. Rome Confederate skirmishers
were lying in the plowed ground in front of
tho artillery. One of them fired at the pnff
of smoke from ltohlnson'ii gun in tbn
hushes. Robinson's gnn stock was broken,
his throat partially cat, and hia jawbone
broken by the ballets from the Confeder
ates' guns. He afterword recovered from
his wounds."
As Pelham woa killed on March 17, lhrid,
by the fragment of a shell that struck him
on the the top of his head, while riding in a
charge with Fitzhugh Lee against Averili,
at Kelley's Ford, Captain Chase's command
loaea the “credit” of having slain him in tha
following May at Chancellor*ville.

"Pantomime in this country i* not Vhdt
need to be,” said C. W. Ravel, the panto-
mimiat, in a response to a question. “No,
ia not what it used to be/’ he repeated.
Italy is the only place," Mr. Ravel con
tinued, “where pantomime ia still aeen in
its oid-time purity.”
The Hnmpty-Dumpty company to which
reference has just been made ia about like
all the troupes of the kind that travel
through the country. There is some pan-
tomine, and in thlx feature the ancient
form is adhered to in the main. The pan-
tomine characters are all there—Clown,
Harlequin, Pantaloon and Columbine; bat
an innovation which ia particularly ob
jected to by all true pantouiimisU, os well
aa by the more cultivated clans of theatre
goers, is the introduction of occasional oral
gags, when no speaking on the part of the
pantomine coat, ia impossible. In the old
-lantomine entertainments the specialty
euturi-N did not predominate os they do
now.
C. W. Ravol is the sole member of the
famous French pantomine family remaining
on the stage. The founder of the family
studied pantomine at the fountain head—
Italy—and returning to France became fa
mous in Paris in 1808. In 1820 four broth
ers and one sister made np a tronpe and ap
peared at Drury Lane Theatre, London,
with great success. Their names were
Gabriel, Francois, Antoine, Jerome and
Angelique, the latter a danseuse and Col
umbine. Jerome and Angeliqae are still
living. Their nome is in Franoe where
they enjoy handsome incomes from their
fortunes earned on the stage.
It was in 1830 that the family first came
to this country. And the Castle Garden
Theatre, New York, was the seen* of their
first appearanoe in America. They mads
tours through the States, and then went
back to Pane. Their second visit to Amer
ica was with the Lehman and Martinetti
families, all pantomimista. They made
frequent journeys to this country after
that, and appeared in South America and
Havana.
The present representative of the family,
C. W. Ravel, ia the youngest eon of An
geliqae, He was born in New York in
1852, and received his profesa'onal educa
tion from hia mother. He made hia first
appearance in Ronth America, at the age of
4 yean, in classical statuary, a* “Little Her
cules." His sister, who married some
year* ego and left the etage, took part in
A Mull Carrier's SiitTerings,
Hath Sentinel.
Few people know the hardships endured
in carrying the mail around the seacoast.
Captain William R. Humphrey, who con
veys the mail from Monhegnn to Boothbny,
underwent a severe experience in fulfilling
his duty the week of the storm. Ue etsrtea
from Moubegan Tuesday morning with the
thermometer 15 degrees below zero, and
the vapor ho thick that it was impossible
to see, in bis boat with on? man, Thoy
had proceeded nearly half way to Booth-
bay, when in reefing the mainsu the man
with him was knocked Into the water, and
reecned with the greatest difficulty, making
it necessary to return to port Wednesday,
with the mercury and vapor tha same, he
again attempted to reach Boothbay, when
his bowspit nud jib were carried away by
'be gale. Thursday his msinsail was torn
o ribbons by tha wind. Friday he bad
proceeded quite a distance when be was
knocked down by the sea and his boat near
ly filled with water, Saturday he arrived
in Boothbay, having hired a vessel to take
him there.
