TWO ANNIVERSARIES.

The month of April brings the anniversary days of the death of two of America's greatest men, Benjamin Franklin and Abraham Lincoln. The two days come very near together. Franklin die* peacefully in his bed, at the age of 84, April 17. one hundred years ago. It was therefore the centenary of his death that the American Philosophical society celebrated at Philadelphia on the 17th.

To Franklin undoubtedly belonged the greatest philosophical mind Amerioa has ever given the world. In a time of peace he would have been pre-eminent in the realm of science, both abstract and practical. Indeed, a distinguishing trait of his mind was that at once it was BO philosophical and practical. As he lived in a ti'uc of war, however, he was a statesman and a patriot, and was the real originator of some of the best features of our free government. Let young and old read his life, the old to refresh their memories as to Franklin's extraordinary services to liis country, the young to leaxn what those services were, and ponder on them in their hearts.

It is the quarter centenary of the death of that other great American, Lincoln. April 15, at daybreak, twenty-five years ago, he died, cut off before his time by a deedofblood. Franklin lived to see many of the hopes he had formed realized. To Lincoln was scarcely vouchsafed even a glimpse into that promised land of peace for which he had waited so long and nroi-ed so ardently.

On the 19th of April all the management of the immigrant business at the port of New York was formally turned over to the United States authorities. There will tie no more conflict of state and federal jurisdiction. We shall now see how Uncle Sam alone will manage foreign immigration.

KKCKIVKt) THK PKKSHU'NT'S SIONATUIIR. WASHINGTON, April -0.—The world's fair bill Is now a law. The signature of President ISenjamiu Harrison was attached Friday afternoon immediately after the meeting of the Cabinet. The act now goes into the custody of the State Department, which keeps the riginal in parchment of all laws.

Senator Cullom, of Illinois, later in the day had a brief conversation wfth the President about tlie appointment of coinmissioners-at-large. The President said he intended to select the best people he could ll '.i—broad-gaugo, practical men, who would bring with them experience and knowledge of affairs and command the confidence and nwaken the interest of all sections of the country. Ho thought they should not only represent the several great sections—Now England, Now York, the Central States, the Northwest, the South and the Pacific States—but they should also be conspicuous representatives of tho great Industries upon which the wealth and prosperity of tho country are based. He had no ^partijular individuals in view and named no names, but spoke in the mostgenoral manner.

Senator Cullom indorsed the President's views, and said that all who were interested in the success of tha fair would commend them heartily.

For commissioners-at-large It is interesting to note that Chauncey Depew's name is already mentioned. A. T. Goshorn, of Cincinnati, and ex-Gov-ernor McCormick, of Centennial exposition fame, have also been suggested.

The next step will bo the formal notification by Secretary lilaine to the Governors of the various States and Territories requesting them to namo two commissioners respectively whom tho President will appoint members of tho National commission. All this must be done within thirty days.
