What a Cowl Boston Post The followirg is vouched for by a brother editor, and notwitlisianding his general rsputation for veracity is. without doubt, true. An elderly and well-known gentle man ol Boston, who. while lie likes to sit at the eott'dvial board, will not touch any- thing spiritnoos, devoting all hit attention to tbs lacteal fluid, was Invited oat a feW nigbti ago by a party of chuice spirits. A bugs milk punch had. however, been pre pared for him, and when be was naked what beverage he would prefer, hi* reply wss as usual: "Well, I gueii i’ll take a little milk.” The punch was brought, and ’ all eyes were turned toward him to note the eflect. Raising the glass be took a alp, and then another; at the third, however, he drained the tumbler, smacked hie lips, and looking loving at the empty glass, observed: “Greet Cusar! whataeow!" Let us Drop the Trumpet. , New York Tribune. The use ot the speaking trumpets at fires was abandoned soon after the volunteer department went out of existence. When every alarm called out from a dozen to twenty companies and large crowds of rival firemen tilled a street in front of a burning bnllaing there wa, so much noise and the confusion was so great that the com mending officers conld not make them- selves heard without the aid of trumpets. The sound of the trumpets added to the display and excitement and in a fight be tween rirsi companies the trumpets were effective weapons. Strict discipline in the present department baa made the speak ing trumpet useless. Now trumpets are used only et parades aa symbola of au thority. Free Trada Wreckers. New Orleans Picayune. With everything In favor of the Democ racy and apparently nothing to interrupt the current of smooth success which has been running more rapidly every year since 1880, with the governors of twenty- ttve States and the legislatures of twenty- two, witli almost 200 representatives In the popular branch of the Congress. the Dem ocratic party entered the year 1884 under the happiest auspieea. The raah ebulli tion, of the free traders in Congresa turned the tide in five months so com pletely that almost every hope of electing a Democratic Fresident had vanlahed when the national conventions met. It was only the wisdom of the national Dem- ocracr in checking the drift of the party’s reputation, in hatting the party’s foolish leaders and in glv’ng plain pledges to the laboring people regarding the party’s pur poses and future legislative conduct which saved the candidate, from the greatest wreck ot our electoral history, and enabled them to barely squeeze into the exccntiye department by a popular plurality of about 75,000in an a,(legate ol a little leas than 10,000,000 votes, A Moat Embarrassing Question.
