Is it possible that Mr. Brookshire, one of the "perpetrators of the womnds," is to be shorn of his power? Is this thrust made in the interest of the eyed boy of destiny?"

COMSUSSIOREK MILLER has prepared a statement which shows that the total sugar bounty for the flsoal year ending June 30 will be §6,403,089.86. The amount actually paid is as follows: On cane sugar, $8,697,994.73 on beet BUgar, $531,363.81 on sorghum sugar, $19,817 on maple sugar, $60,119,32. Total, $9,309,294.86.
THE President suid in his Fourth of July Tammany letter: "If those who now celebrate the anniversary of American Independence guard uguiust ibe bonJ i] struggle for uuearoeil wealth that stifles patriotism if they exact from public servants the strictest accountability in the i»erforuiance ol public duty," etc.
I'robablv the unearned wealth which the President possesses is what etillee his patriotism. His speculations in real ejtate and Wall street, which have made him a millionaire, probably enables him to speak by the card.
THE Philadelphia Hecord, a Democratic and free trade paper, makes this frank acknowledgment: "There has been such a severe liquidation in all forms of speculative venture, such a de pression in the prices of staples, such difficulty in the management of safe and solvent business, and such a rnde tearing up of the very foundations of credit, that the most sanguine believers in the ability of the oouutry to cope with the troubles I hat beset it have taken a!a m.
THE soldier haters are loud in claim ing that, the men who draw pensions, as a rule did not do much Bervice that they were "feather bed" soldiers. An examination of 470,915 claims, shows, 9,924 served in the army three months and under 42,217 served six months or over three months 84,595 served seven months and under 12 months 116,312 served for more than one year and less than two years 222,867 served two years and over. Does it refute the lie?
AXOTH F. fiction of the "pension fraud hunters" has been exploded. A great ado was made over the allegation that Allen G. Peck, a Rhode Island veteran, receives his pension on account of baldness. Mr. Peck comes to the front with the statement that hie application was on the ground of serious physical disability, and that it is not his fault if the pousion officers "picked ont a remote circumstanoe" and falsely asserted that it was the basis of his claim. So falls another of the slanders on the ex-sold iera of the Union army.
THE Star delines to yield gracefully to
the
selection of Ed Voris as postmaster. While it gives a jjerfonctory endorsement of Mr. Brookshire's ohoice it nevertheless
sendB
up a wail which be
trays its unhappiness. It thus waileth: Hi- WHS cliosen by a coterie of three Demo-crat*-Dr. W.T. Oott, J. M. Sellar uuo Walter Hulett—who stood close to the Member of Coo- •, It wuy tho candidacy of one of these th rco lor a wfrlca ot ofllees at the same time that delayed the appointment no Ion*. The tleUy has been uuforliiniite. No matter that
It was the selection which was cut and dried months since, the delay.oevertlieless, has been fanil to the recognition of Democratic carriers who are loft In the soup.
All of which indicates that the Democratic party is anything bnt a happy family.
THE Star and ilie Jteview are members of the same political household, but there are evidences that family jars have obtruded themselves which threaten that domestic felioity which has so long existed among the brethren. The Star of this week thus pays its respects to the Jteview and the Gott-Seller-Hulett-Brookshire "coterie":
The Review of this city, which for mODths hud denounced Senator Voorhees aud Cleveland will) all that Is foul and the editor which hasberreaned Mr.llrookHblrolu epithets that could not lo printed, denounces "tliuKs" the Democratic masses who caused Mr. Hrookshlre to bouncc Mr. llonnoll! What a lovely creature to thus assail the men who made the party what It Is. Tho coterie who luivo attempted to keep Democrats out of of* lice should Rut back Into the party l.uforo it Is too lute.
If this thing of reading the riot act continues it will be very apt to bring about "strained relations."

DIFFICULTIES OF SMOKERS.
A
Habit That Was Frowned oo in tb« Oldea Times. The Turks are now a nation of smokers, but early in the seventeenth century the priests and rulers denounced smoking as criminal, and Amurath IV. ordered its punishment by death in the cruelest forms. One playful punishment consisted in thrusting the pipes of smokers through their noses.
In Russia, according to All the Year Round, the noses of smokers were cut off. The powers ecclesiastical were strongly opposed to the new habit, and I'upes Urban VIII. and Innocent X. thundered in turn hgainst the terrible vice of smoking. The papal thunders, however, proved powerless against the charms of St. Nicotine although there was much reason ill those decrees which were directed against the custom of smokintr and snuffing in church. Pope Urban excommunicated all who should be guilty of so unbecoming a practice and, later, Innocent X. solemnly excommunicated all who should take snuff or toOaeeo in St. Peter's church at Rome.

"Love and smoke are unable to conceal themselves," and so it is with catarrh. No man sufTerini from this loathsome disease can conceal the fact from the world. No matter how cultured, learned, social brilliant ho is—while his friends may bo polite enough to dissemble their real feel-ings-his very company is loathsome. What a blessing it would be to humanity, if every person afllicted with catarrh in tho head could only know that Dr. Sago's Catarrh

IN WOMAN'S BEHALF.
Profitable Kmplr utent Can Always Be Fuuud for Coiupeteut Housekeeper*. A fine aud profitable business for women, pursued as a profession, is that of housekeeping. Every woman thinks herself fitted to "keep house but in sober truth those who are really fitted for it—that is. those who are thoroughly educated in its requirements so that they would have a right to practice it es they would any other trade or profession and reeeive money for it—are by no means many. Yet. if the women who have peculiarly strong domestic inclinations would recognize that tho trend of their talent is towards housekeeping, and then prepare themselves seriously from the first step to the last, there would lc a sensible addition made to lie comfort of the world, and new openiug established through •which many women, instead of now and then one, could earn their livelihoods.
As it now is, when there seems to be nothing else that a woman can do. and she has not a home into which she can take boarders for its support, she adertises herself as a housekeeper for a gentleman's family, "widower preferred." If she had learned her business, as she would have that of dressmaking, or type-writing, or schoolteaching, or surgery, or any thing else, in short, she would never have to make that humiliating postcript of widower preferred." In that case the idower would not be preferred. She would go into a house where there was wife who wished and wearied for her, and would pursue her duties under no offensive suspicion of an intention ultimately to marry the widower. It would make small dift'eren*e to her if her employer were man or woman, although she might perhaps slighty prefer the woman for the sake of the sympathy which one woman has for another but she would go on with her tasks, her plans, her oversight, occupied with the house and keeping it in order, with the children and their clothes and their health, with the table, the servants, the linen, with the whole round of the year's work which keeps house and home in running order, and would pay no more heed to the personalty of the man of the house, us an individual pleasant or unpleasant to her, than if she were an automaton that had been wound up to go through its motions at is service.
It is no trilling education that a woman will need to be competent for the place in this light. She will have to have the ordinary school education, that she may not be illiterate, that she may capable of directing the children's lessons if she have the oversight of children she will want some knowldge of tho world, and acquaintance with the manners of the highly bred she will want to cultivate all the com-mon-sense with which nature may have endowed her, in order that she may carry herself inoffensively she will want courage to assert her rights and to maintain her place among the insubordinate, with neatness, order, patience, firmness, foresight, and absolute truthfulness: she will need good-nature and sweet temper, that she may be an agreeable feature in the house, and modesty, that she may be an unobtrusive one, and tact, to keep herself out of the way when not wanted, to put herself in the way at any demand for her. She will require a low voice, too, a gentle movement, a pleasant manner, a quiet taste in dress.
But beside these things our housekeeper is no housekeeper at all if she does not know the way to handle a broom, the way to flirt a duster, the way to make the intricacies v»f spring and fall cleaning endurable to the inmates of the house does not know how the dishes should be washed without nicking them how the meats should bought, should be cut, be dressed the meals should be prepared and rved, how the sweetmeats, the pick- .. the catsups, should be made how to cut out and baste and sew, how the laundry-work should be done she must know, indeed, everything that pertains to the practical side of the family fort and nicety—must know it all, even if she is never going to bp called upon to do thus and so with licr own hands. The women who will thus equip themselves have to advertise for no position the schools that can turn thern out will be beset with applicants: and the winnen themselves will not only have provided for their own comfortable and remunerative support, but thoy will rt-e learned how to make suffering households happy, and will have added another profession to those already pursued by women—a profession indeed, and not an upper class of service. -Harper's Bazar.
WOMEN AND CRIME.
8oiun Kentucky Stutlstlrs Tlmt Form a Valuable Ohject-Lcttiinii. There is a great hue aud cry that if women could vote the bad women would all rush to the polls and the good women would not vote. Here is an ob-ject-lesson: The convicts in the two Kentucky penitentiaries have just been counted, and it is found that there are now 1,340 convicts that have to be supported by the state. Of this number 20 are women, 8 white women and 20 colored, and 1,814 men. According to these statistics, gotten up by the men themselves, there are 51 7-13 of a man to every 1 woman.
Now, we suggest If the men voters will take care of the l,:iM bad men, the women will take care of the twenty-six women, apd we think the masculines will have a bigger contract on their ljunds than the women. We will even agree to take the fractional man and make a good cltiz.cn out of him, tcach him to read the constitution and show him the duties of citizenship, without the use of liquid patriotism. We have been a suffragist for years, und we have never yet heard of a bad woman who wanted to vote. Wc are inclined to the belief that it takes a bad man to make a bad woman.
As there are fifty-one bud men in Kentucky to every bad woman, the •tatc would be in no danger from the

votes of the women, but it certainly is In danger now from the thousands of bad men who surge through the saloons and gambling dens to the ballot lox and no moral power to offset their votes, whioh are sold out to the distillers and brewers who manipulate the politics of the state. No, the danger Is not from bad women, but from bad men. We were always glad we were born a woman, but we are really delighted since reading the statistics above.—Southern Journal.
A COLORED WOMAN LECTURING.
Talking to fia|lteh People on Lynch Law In the South. Miss Ida Bell Wells, Negro woman from Holly Springs, Miss., is lecturing in England on "Lynch Law in tho United States." The subject, as It affects colored people in the south, is somewhat new to British audiences, and Miss Wells desires to rouse the moral sentiment of the people in favor of just and equal treatment of the Negro race throughout the world. Some of the statements she made in a recent interview were startling to the Britishers, who supposed that the prejudice against the colored race had diod away. When asked if the spread of education and growth of property among her people was increasing, she replied that the color line was as distinctly drawn as ever, and she added: "No Afro-American, whatever his moral, financial or educational stunding, can enter a white church, school or railway car. One sign that the feeling has not grown less is that within six years some of the southern states have passed a law to prevent the admission of Nogroes in the same car with the whites."
Miss Wells states that she was herself dragged out of a car in Tennessee and loft at the station because she refused to ride in the Negro car. She is of the opinion that as the Negro ad vances in education and qualities of good citizenship the disinclination to allow him civil rights becomes deeper, und maintains that British opinion and protest will have great force. So she is holding meetings in all the large cities. —N. Y. Sun.
Queens of the World's Fair. The Columbian Exposition is a golden prophecy of woman's future. By the appointment of the board of lady managers with full control to labor as seemed to them best, the government of the United States gave its first seal to woman's unrestricted labor. Does not this portend the speedy removal of all the shackles which have hitherto hampered her endeavors? The platform of the Woman's building on that opening day, with the representatives from many foreign lands aud the hundred members of the home board gathered from the different states and territories, typified the closer union in which henceforth all leaders will join the furtherance of every good cause. The .ringing words spoken in behalf of fair play for all olasses will go echoing round the world ui.'til they awaken res-olutions-strong enough to secure tho demand. As the crowning touch of all, the whole of woman's part in the great World's fair was dedicated to an elevated wamanhood.—Chautauquan.
Routed a German Soldier.
A mischievous American girl was recently in Dresden, when the stolidity of tho sentinels pacing up and down like automatons attracted her notice. She waa seized with a sudden desire to test this oast-iron rigidity, and, waiting until the sentry had turned his back, she slipped into his box. When he came back she popped out her head and suid "Boo!" The soldier dropped his musket and bolted, while the proud American girl, having routed a portion of the German army, demurely rejoined her friends. The emperor heard of the incident and expressed a desire to see the young woman, but she declined to enter into an amnesty with a conquered power.
