CURRENT NOTES.

"MACK" is the only sharp writer on the St. Lduis papers.

THE '•'Journal" declines to answer any questions about the Cincinnati Convention. "Mum is the word."

THE "World" is willing to support harlesFrancis Adamsfor the Presidency^ if nominated by the Cincinnati Convention. But the "World," it mii3t be remembered. is not the Democratic party.

IT may be doubted whether Charles Suinner would take any more delight in supporting Mr. Adams than Gen. Grant for President. Is not Mr. Sumner himself the chief statesman of Massachusetts?

THOSE of onr Yankee friends who want a live, newsy paper from the "Hub," should take the Boston "Times." It costs only $4 00 per annum, and is better, in many respects, than the larger and more expensive dailies.

THE crack crew of the Atlantic Boat Club will leave for England on the 13th of next month, for their international contest with the London Club. The row is from Putney to Mortlake, on the Thames, and will be one of the clo'est watched races of our day.

THE Indianapolis "Journal" follows Greeley's example in "poking fun" at the woman suffrage movement. Both these "exponents of public" opinion" will wake up, some day, to find themselves too far behind the times to warrant a hope of their ever overtaking the main body of the Party of Progress."

ONCE in a while the London "Saturday Review" so far forgets its petty prejudice toward America as to pass a fair judgment on one of our books. The most noticeable instance lately is the announcement that "Mr. Stephen Pearl Andrews 'Basic Outlines of Universology' is a work wholly original/and simply absolute nonsense."

THE death of Miss Horwitz, of New York,- is another sad example of the prevailing mania for suicide. A young woman in excellent, even elegant, circumstances, to be married in a week to a gentleman of her own choice, in the midst of preparation for a bridal trip to Europe, she is attacked with neuralgia, and cures it with powder and a leaden bill.

THE New York Legislature is taking action on a bill repealing the act allowing the sectarian schools to participate in the school fund, and placing all schools that share in it under the jurisdiction of the Superintendent of Common Schools. Since 1860 the city of New York has paid nearly two and a quarter millions of dollars to charitable and religious institutions.

ENGLAND is still unsatisfied with her navy. The launch of the Rupert, a powerful iron clad ram, which took place last week, is but the perenrsor of a dozen others now on the docks, and almost ready to be turned out. They are an invincible navy of themselves, consisting of five double-screw, armor-plated ships, of the heaviest grade afloat, together with ten others of less weight. Somebody is afraid of a light. ..

WHEN Joaquin Miller concluded his lecture on "Literary London,"a! San Francisco, the CALL* reports that he "said simply: 'I thank you for your attenlion, and (lifting his eyes upward,) I am thankful to Him who doeth all things well that I have been enabled to get through.'" Tho California papers say he made a great success as a lecturer. The Governor and Legislature wanted him to redeliver his oration at the Capital.

THE corner stone of the new Marion county Court House will be laid some time in May, and it is proposed to make the occasion an impressive one. It is suggested that the Masons, Odd Fellows, Knights of Pythias, Red Men, Druids, Harugari, Sons of Temperance, Astute Astrologers, Knights of St. Crispin, Fenians, Son8.of Honor, and all other secret and benevolent orders, should take part in the ceremonies. Such a celebration would make as grand a display as was ever seen in our Capital City.

FROM the Indianapolis "Sentinel" we learn that John Smith returned to his home, near Brownstown, Crawford county, the other day, to find his wife with her little babfe in her arms, lying with her face in the fireplace, her head burned to a crisp, a:id her brains frying on the burning coals. The child's arms were burned off, and it was not expected to recover. The woman was subject to fits, and it is supposed that she fell into the fire while suffering under a sudden attack of her disease.

IT has repeatedly been declared that the whole number of land owners in England and Wales is only 30,000, and that the entire soil of Scotland belongs to half a dozen noblemen. These figures are the result of GUESS-ICORK. Lord Derby now proposes that, in the reign of Victoria, shall be made a new Doomsday Book, as was done in the reign of William the Conqueror and Henry VIIIHe has moved, in Parliament, for a return of all the landed proprietors of Great Britain and Ireland. His own estimate is that, in England and Wales, their number is nearer 300,000 than 30,000. Others calculate it as high as a half million, which, in a population of 20,000,000, does not carry out what has been said of the monopoly of the land.

«6®KE Boston the very poor show made by the ultra- [The following jg fr0ia the pen of Miss Mary H. Krout, one of Indiana's truest poets, and who is a niece of Prof. W. H. Wiley, of this city:]

Prohibitionists and Labor 'Reformers in New Hampshire, they would severally begin to see the impolicy of their separating themselves into distinct politiSl' parties. The longer they ^uphold th||r distinction the smallei' their numbers grow not only in that State but. in all others where they are separately organized. We notice that the Prohibition leaders in Connecticut claim to be able to control 50,000 votes, but it is hardly to be believed that they will cast any such number.

HON. JOHN L. THOMAS, collector of the port of Baltimore, lias written a letter to the "American" OF that city, in which he declines to be a delegate to the National Republican Convention. The reasons which Mr Thomas assigns for adopting this course are, that while heartily endorsing the policy of President Grant, and earnestly hoping for his re election, he believes if any considerable number of the gentlemen now holding office under the Administration are members of. the Convention, that it will only tend1 to weaken the nomination by giving the enemies of the President cause to say that he could not have been^nominated,by the masses of the people.

SAYS the New York "Times:" When President Grant entered office, he found the public service demoralized in all directions by the corrupt Administration of "Andy" Johnson. In the course'of three years he had carried out or proposed many valuable reforms the public debt has been decreased THREE HUNDRED MILLIONS thus effecting a reduction in the interest of EIGHTEEN MILLIONS ANNUITY taxes have been largely reduced an honorable effort has been made to settle our differences peaceably with England and the welfare of the whole people has been consistently studied. Does any one suppose that the Convention of soreheads and bolters at Cincinnati will find a man to do better work than this? Has Horace Greeley or Carl Schurz a better claim upon public respect than General Grant?

OPIOM EATING should be avoided by all those who are tired of the' troubles of this world. In Now York it prevaila to an alarming extent, especially in the case of Capt. Lahrbush, the festive youth of 107 summers, who is paragraphed every year at this time on the anniversary his birthday, which is celebrated by a dinner, at which he sits down with several friends. At the age of 27 Lahrbush ac quired the baneful habit of opium eating, and has followed it industriously for the past eighty years. He now eats a quantity daily sufficient io kill five men of strong constitutions, and yet his sands of life have not run out, and.there is no immediate prospect of their exit. But this does not excuse his loose habit of opium eating. Had it not been for that insidious disease, Lahrbush might have been twice as old as he is now.

THE Springfield "Republican" says the question ot who shall be United States Senator from New Hampshire—Patterson or Rollins—will bring the Republican party of that State to such fair confront' al of the Presidential campaign as they have not been brought to during the re cent canvass. The prospect i3 that there will be a tough struggle between the pres ent holder of the Senatorial office and Mr. Rollins, for the nomination—for thereafter the battle will be virtually ended. Capt. Bromley, of the Hartford "Evening Post," who has been prospecting around Concord pending the late election, writes to his paper, predicting the choice of Rollins, for the reason, as he says, that Mr. Patterson is not the sort of man with whom ths President can be intimate or confidential, while Rollins is and hence it will be urged that the latter can do more at Washington for the State, control more patronage, and so forth.

The Man with a Manuscript. FROM THE MISSOURI DEMOCRAT.] The "Missouri Democrat" has a per petual and perennial grievance in the Man with the Manuscript. Sometimes it's a woman but we will do the gentle sex the credit to say that, nine times out of ten, it's a man. Then, again, there is all the difference in the world in favor of the woman when she does come. She modestly asks to see the editor, to whom she reveals that she has a little poem or story which she would like to have printed in our widely circulated journal. We have only to hint a want of space, and to utter a commendation, which is not always true, as to the merits of the proffered article of prose or verse, accompanied by a regret—which is oftener a joy—that we cannot possibly, you see, find room for everything, you know and she retires with a smiling bow or bowing smile Not so the Man with a Manuscript. He wants to see the editor, on very important business—must see him won't deign to treat with one who is a single degree removed from the cheif responsibility. If the editor is not in, he helps himself to a chair with the air of one who had come to lay siege to the establishment. When the opportunity occurs he presents his contribution, which is generally a five-act tragedy. It is, perhaps, in favor of the construction of a railroad from Bnngtown to Swampoodle. He assures us the people of these two thriving towns are up in arms on this subject, and that if we do not print him in full there will be weeping and wailing in Bungtown, and gnashing of teeth in Swampoodle. If, however, we will print it, we may count -upon him for five extra copies—and will we take the pay la advance? Or, perhaps, he is on political thoughts intent. He has an idea, which, if adopted, would greatly advance the interests of the party. He has written it briefly upon twenty pages of foolscap, and would we be kind enough to put it in lo-morrow's paper? If there are any errors in it—which there are, to the extent of making rewriting an easier task than correction—he would like to have us make the necessary emendations it has been so long since he wrote for the press that he is tempted to self-distrust and a hint of possible imperfection. So he would like to have the editor 'read it over" (two hours of hard work) and correct it (four hours more), and put it in to-morrow's paper (two columns of space). And then he condescends to retire, leaving the editor, as he thinks, in profound study over his MSS. Vain man! The chance8 are that before he has closed the door behind him his long labor of love and patriotism is in the waste basket. Since the curtailment of the period of human existence, as a consequence of hnman transgression, there'is not time either for an editor to revise, or for a subscriber to read, these volunteer contributions and experience daily demonstrates to us the truth of Sidney Smith's remark, that "a volunteer contributor is, EX VI^ TERMINI, an ass." A concurrence in this v?ew of the case may account for the non-appearance of many brilliant articles with which we are constantly favored.

When the la'nt sunshine of the early Spring Shone o'er the first brave flowers. And theshy bee stole forth on timid wing

Betirecn'the fitful showers.

Two little birds, grown-weary in their flight From o'er the purple tea. Stayed their tired pinions there and paused, alight

Upon that leafless tree. ,,

Then 'mid the murmurs of tho gentle rain. Faint falling on the air, They breathed their thanks in a low, tremulous strain

To Him who brought them there

•Warmer-and warmer grew thet day*-and bright The whole glad earth seemed new, While slow unfolding through the day and night

The buds and grass blades grew.

There,' underneath the boughs that blushed with bloom, A sheltered nook they sought Built'their frail home amid the'fresh perfume,"

And long'and well theywrought

.«i

Patiently they laboredi pausing not to rest Until their work was done, And fourw.ee birdlings 'neath-the brooding breast

Told of their Jives begun.,

Then with kind watchfulness for every need They stilled their hungry cries. Until the new fledged brood With eager speed,.

Flew through the Summer'skies.

Then when their tasks were done, the flowers, dead, They, caring not to stay,- sfi-i I Hovered one moment round thtf tfest. then

O'er land and wave away. A ui-iB.

Yet their brief sojourn has not bsen ih vain, The nest siill clinging there Teaches us patience they will corae again

Whgn the dark daj grow fair. •'.

We think that He who called thorn long ago, Will bring them hack onoe more,: Will wake the blossoms underneath the snow.

When Wintertime i» o'er.

So when our tasks fall finished at the last From out our weary hands. And pausing to look back o'eft what is past,

We seek serener lands,

May we, too, in our flight some sweet cheer leave For patient ones and, sad, Some hope to bring a smile to lips that grieve,

To make some faint heart glad.

Twelve of'them left-him but the other ten remained with anc worked for him until the day of: his death, taking for their services just as much as be chose to give litem. At his death, to show his appreciation of their services, and his gratitude, he gave them his farm, on which they can? all live comfortably. -uoi^T -A-JOTF

ANew Educational Idea. The Worcester, Common Council, be lieving that the progress of the ehildren educated in the public schools would be increased by spending half a day ia eachf month during two'years of their school life in visiting some of the various manufactory establishments of the city, have resolved to "recom mend to the School Board the adoption of such measures as they may deem proper to secure to the children in our public schools a proper knowledge of the mechanical industries of the city."- -figg

AFTER killing some more patients by the use of chloroform in the Paris huspit als, it is finally decided to substitute sul phuric ether in its place. This was done in America long since.

DEATH by starvation is a very rare thing in this country, but almost a daily occurrence, as recorded by the British press, in some parts of the kingdom, but especially in England proper.

NEW factories seem to be springing.,up all over New England, and old ones are doubling their former facilities, all of which is evidence' of successful enter terprise eK- .?*!.
