The fierce shriek of the keynote resounds from the columns oil our third page.

Mr. Hnbbell is going about Washington with more than his average niportance. He has had a lenionsqueezer named for him.

The Sprague insurrection, with headquarters at Caonchet, is still on in lihode Island. The job of suppressing brother Sprague should not be spun out too long. The Governor could arouse the State if he blew his dinnerhorn on the front porch.

Olive Logan says that the greatest care is taken to make the British soldier the best dressed of any in the world. There is not an article of his clothing which is not subjected to the severest scrutiny. The British dress everything—even the dispatches from the seat of war.

An exchange remarks that the Russians antedate the, creation written of by Moses. Their era goes back to the creation of the world and is prior to the era described by Moses by many centuiies. They do not teach that Adam and Eve were the lirst pair. We trust Susan Anthony can be induced to present a few personal recollections of this period.

General Bragg, Democrat, of Wisconsin, tried to act for Hoi man as watch dog of the Treasury, when the colossal Indiana skinflint was absent from the House. Bragg is a great man, almost as great as Jimmy Williams, who cut off the House from its supply of lemonade, and sneaked over lo slake his own thirst at the Senate's lemonade bung-hole. Bragg has been sued for obtaining about $1,500 on drafts, on the Sergoant-at-arms, which were dishonored, because he had nothing to his credit. Perhaps Bragg would like to see the Government bridge over its dificiencies on the same plan.

•luring his wanderings among the departments Jav llubbell has run or-oss a clerk fn the Treasury who is c-.pressed with a conscience. He flatly refused to pay the assessment, and gave as his reas6n a desire to see the Republican party superseded by a Prohibition party. "Both of the old parties," lie wrote, "are breaking up

THE VOORHEES KEY-N0TE3J We lay before the readers of the Express the "key-note" speech of the

13.

this city last night. It is unnecessary for us to say that it was well and eloquently delivered—for Mr. Voorhees is always eloquent. His commanding presence and clear ringing tones never fail to enchain an audience, and upon this occasion he was fully equal to himself. The people of this city are always glad to hear him for whether they agree or disagree with what he says, they entertain for him the highest possible respect, and are ready, at all times, to extend to him every possible courtesy. In matter, however, the speech will not impress those who read it carefully, as contain ing anything of special interest, except that part of it which has reference to his own course in the Senate—a matter not irivolved in the present campaign in this State.

It is easy to see that he felt himself carrying a heavy load when dealing with the proposed prohibitory amendment to the constitution for one of his chief objections to it appears to be the time and manner of its origin. He charges that the last Legislature which proposed the amendment was not elected with reference to it, and from this premise, makes an argument against its adoption. The argument is that the people did not desire it. A moment's reflection would have enab'ed him to see that this argument amount# to nothin The Legislature acted within the sphere proscribed to it by the Consti tution in proposing the amendment, and is presumed to have reflected the popular opinion, just as much as Mr, Voorhees is presumed to do so ®en he votes in the Senate. But it is really of no consequence whether they did this or not, inasmuch as the amendment has been proposed, and must be disposed of in the manner fixed by the Constitution. Of course, if the jiext Legislature does not agree to submit it to the people, that is the end of it, and the issue now between the parties is, whether that shall or shall not be done This issue Mr. Voorhees does not dis cuss, and could not discuss, even with all his ingenuity, without putting the Democratic party in the position of being afraid to trust the people. He must know, as almost everybody else does, that there is no such question now pending as involves an inquiry into the manner in which the proposed amendment passed the last Legislature but that the question now- to be decided is, in as much as it has been passed, whether the people have not the sovereign right.under the Constitution to decide for themselves whether it shall be adopted or not. The Republican part}'say they have, and the Democratic party say they have not. That is the issue, in all its length and breadth, and no ingenuity can escape or explain it away. No matter, practically, whether it arose with the people or not. It is now be fore them, and concerns their welfare and they alone have the right to decide finally what shall be done with it

Mr. Voorhees called the Republican platform on the subject "timid, dodging and evasive," but takes care not to point out wherein it is so. It certainly does not dodge or evade the ques tion of submission, and that is the only question now before the people, as we have more than once explained. When he made this charge he must have had the Democratic platform in his mind for that is both for and against submis sion —it agrees that the people have the right to have the amendments submitted to them, put pledges the Democratic party to deprive them of that right, by electing to the Legislature those who will oppose and defeat submission! This is not "timid" at all, being somewhat bold, but it is certainly "dodging and evasive."

What Mr. Voorhees means when he talks about the members of the next Legislature being required to agree to the amendment! whether "for or against them" we do not understand, notwithstanding he calls it "absurd and dishonest." Nobody has ever pro posed that members of the Legislature shall be required to vote in any other way than as their judgment shall influence them, and that is a matter between themselves and their constitu ents. The whole thing is plain. Those in favor of submission will vote for candidates who favor it, and those opposed to it will vote for those who agree with them. If their Representatives do not obey them, tlier, they can be dealt with as they deserve. There will be no compulsion about it but every member will vote as he pleases The only pledge required by Republicans beforehand is that the candidates at the fall election shall favor submission—whether after submission he shall vote for or against the amendment. And it is the fact that the Democratic party requires its candidates to vote against and to defeat submission that is occasioning so many of its members to oppose it.

Mr. Voorhees calls the request of the Congressional committee for contributions for election purposes, "looting," and "blackmailing." In order to make it

so,

however, it would have to be compulsory and a refusal work the loss of oflice. It is not so, and he should have stated as much. The contributions asked for are voluntary entirely, and both the President and Secretary of the Treasury have declared that no oflicer shall be interfered with or removed for the refu-al to contribute. And it is a sufficient reply to all that has been said upon that subject, that not one single officcr has been removed for refusing to pay what is called his assessment, nor will there be one while the Republican party remains in power. But it is calculated to excite a smile to hear Democrats talk about appointments and removals for opinions' sake, and raising money to be expended in' elections. And has not a Republican administration recently appointed a Democrat from this city to an important office worth, we believe, $5,000 a year? Did any body ever hear

of the Democratic partv__'_ appointing Republicans to such an office, or indeed to airy ©ops not ev6rybo|ly,knpv that the whole _svstem| of usin^ public offices as rewards to party friends' originated? with -that}party And it is now horrified, at the idea that money should be expended in elections, while at the last Cincinnati convention Mr. English was nominated for the Vice-Presidency because he was expected to contribute an enormous fund for election purposes estimated, we believe, at $100,000—and was "cursed and abused because he did not do it!

Mr. Voorhees referred to the efforts which he says the National banks have been making to curtail the circulation by retiring silver and silver certificates. But he says also that they did not succeed in this scheme at the late session of Congress. This is as much as to say that the Republican Congress did not reduce the circulation or impair the value of silver. We accept this as a compliment to the Republican party.

On the subject of the tarift he is plicit in favor of incidental protec tion—that is, such protection as follows a revenue tariff. His argument upon this subject is.creditable and satisfactory but we apprehend he will find some trouble in bringing his own party away from the "tariff for revenue only" standard. We shall leave him and them to settle that among themselves, and are glad to have his" aid to the Republican party in the-work of exposing the fallacy of free trade. His repudiation of the Tilden and Hen dricks platform is not in any sense displeasing to the Republican party, 'which is influenced by the desire to secure all the aid it can in building up and protecting the great industries of the whole country. -J V- Vyw

A cheerful illustration of the buoyancy of American commercial life is found in the business condition of Memphis. Though scourged repeatedly and as often converted into a field of desolation, she rises up with more speed and vigor than old Phcenix ever did. The Appeal of that city says:

Never in the history of the.Southern Stales has there been such a season of prosperity as the present. Cotton and Iron manufactories are increasing In such numbers as presently defies computation, and railroads are increasing in numbers and extent in miles beyond anything dreamed of. The grain and fruit crops are enormous, and the large Increase in blooded stock and hogs bears evidence to the change in the methods hitherto adopted by our farmers. The cotton crop, It is estimated, will be at loast an average, and the. yield of cottonseed oil from the Increased number of factories promises to be at least one-third more than the best preceding years. In all of this Memphis shares generously. We already have seven cottoii-seed oil mills, and two more aro to be added, besides a refinery. The cotton factory is flourishing, and may soon bo flanker! by a woolen factory and another cotton factory of larger dimensions. Our foundries are pressed with work, and under the stimulus of cheap coal and cheap and abundant ores, it is not impossible we may soon have the rolling mill revived Memphis is on a boom. The tide has turned, and tho future depends upon ourselves. If our business men arc as sagaclous and enterprising as they have proven themselves plucky, Memphis may have 100,000 people in 1899, and be first in manufactures among the cities, of the South.

CURRENT COMMENT, vf, v,

If Arabi had control of the telegraph wires, Sir Garnet Wolseley, General Allison and Admiral Hewitt would figure less every niprning in the news papers as great military heroes.

The biggest flower in the world has just been exhibited in. Berlin. It comes from Sumatra, and is known in science as the Rufflesia Arnoldi, and is peculiar to that island and Java. It measures nearly ten feet in circumference and more than three in diameter. Sir Stamford Rattles and Dr. Joseph Arnold were exploring in company when they discovered this cliam pion plant.

The relic fool has broken out down in Chattanooga. The force working on a sewer in that town the other day dug up an old stump. It was placed in front of a saloon and a placard put on it stating that it was the rootofa fruit tree planted by an Indian cliiuf at Ross Landing, and that General Jackson ate a peach of the second crop it bore. Saturday it was hacked to pieces by people in search of relics, and some of this old stump will no doubt be found in the prominent cabinets of the country very soon.

Herbert Spencer, now doing Ameri ca, was born in 1820, and discovered at an early age a love and talent for the studies to which his later life has been devoted. His more recent distinction in higher intellectual fields 1ms some what obscured the more practical triumphs of an earlier period, and it is not generally remembered that he is the inypntor of valuable improvements in watchmaking, of a machine to make types by compression instead of casting, of "a new kind of printing press, and was one of the first to utilize electricity in glyptographic printing.

Baltimore, the most stagnant concern on the Continent, has actually blossomedout with a real live romance. A young man with one eye meta poorly clad and woe-begone girl on a wharf. He kindly asked lier what was the matter. She hesitated, and then being urged to speak out, said that a clairvoyant had told her to go to that spot at that time, to meet a one-eyed stranger, who would ask her to marry him, which she would consent to do, and long happiness would ensue for both. Of course he could not doubt her story, for was he not there with his single eve? He made the proposal of marriageand the next day the wedding was held.

It is said that Col. Bob Ingersoll is not a great lawyer, and is really out of place in the Star Route cases. He knew how to call Bliss a liar In open court one day Just as well as the best lawyer in Washington. -«t«n

That Champion Toady*

Post-Dispatch. The brigade of British troops commanded by the Duke of Connaught did a little marching in the Egyptian sand the other day, and Gen. Wolseley who Is a first-class toady, telegraphed to England that the Duke liad handled bis soldiers well. It will be in order for the good Queen Victoria to devise some new decoration for Wolseley at the close of the Egyptian picnic.

LITERARY NOTES.

i) tk

Mr.F. II. Underwood is at work upon a life'of John G. Wlilttier. Mr. Anthony Trollope is preparing a biography of Lord Palmerston.

Mr. John H. Ingram, the biographer of Poe, is to be the editor of anew and premising series of monographs on the "English Women of Letters."

The Saturday Review says that all the better American writers of fiction work with a careful conscientiousness which is all but unknown at present to English writers.

Forty of the professors of Andover, Mass., with six women (their wives and daughters), chief among tho women being Mrs. Stowe and Miss Elizabeth Stuart Phelps, have published books with a circulation of over a million copies.

The nine little stories for children which "Ouida" has written for the little Prince of Naples,£and published under the. title of "Bimbi," aro the most fascinating little tales Imaginable, pure In thought and purpose, charming In style, with su'rprising touches of wit and humor and pathos.

It is said that two of the greatest masters of fiction that the world ever produced were women—George Eliot and George Sand. If these great writers had assumed such names as "Minnie May" or "Sallie September," probably the only papers that would have printed their stories would have been the Waverly Magazine or one of the-five-cent libraries.

Cnsscll, Petter, Galpin & Co., have just issued "The Constitutional History and Political development of the United States,'by Mr. Simon Sterne, of the New York bar. They describe itas "a popular, authentic, and well-written history of the constitutional progress of the United States from its Inception to the present timo." "Idyls of Norway, and Other Poems," will probably be the" title of a volume by Mr. H. H. Boyesen, which Messrs. Scrlbner willpubllsli In October. The first poem In the book will be "Tho Lost Hellas." The last of the Norse Idyls, "Thoracis soon to appear,,with illustrations, in Our Continent. "Caiphuruia," and other Poems, which are to be included In this volume, are already familiar to Mr. Boyesen'sadmirers.

Houghton, MifHln & Co. have just brought out in tasteful paper covers a very handy summer edition of Mr. Iiowells' dcllglitfnl story, "Their Wedding Journf y," which Is so fascinating a combination of story and travel that it ought to have a remarkable popularity among summer readers. A similar edition .of Mr. Ilowells' "A'Chance Acquaintance," the sequel to "Their Wedding Journey,'' is also ready.

Among tho American publications to be counted upon this fall, one of' the first In costliness and literary Importance is "The Historical, Political, and Diplomatic Writings of Nicholas Machiavelll," translated from the Italian by Mr. Charles E. Detmold, of this city. This will be the first complete English translation of the diplomatic correspondence of Machiavelll, and as lie was engaged upon it over twenty distinct and separate missions, it is needless to say that his official communications with his Government on those occasions cannot fail to possess great historical interest and value. The work will make four goodly octavo volumes. The completion of Professor Villari's admlrdblc life of Machiavelll this year makes tills publication m'ostopportune. We understand that Osgood & Co., of Boston, are to be the publishers.

THAT ARE ESTABLISHED

BY TESTIMONY:

feT

av. 'hi,

We wish to draw the attention of the reader tb a few facts which we will afterwards confirm by the most unimpeachable testimony. First, it is a fact that in this everchanging climate we are one and all exposed to sadden heat and cold, bringing on chills, coughs and colds, which in their turn produce Asthma, Bronchitis, Ulcerated Sore Throat or Consumption. It is a fact that Rheumatism is getting more prevalent every day, and has become chronic with many sufferers.

What a Near Neighbor Says, who Speaks from Experience. '-1' AKRON, Erie County, N. Y., 1

December 6, 1881.

To the proprietors of Thomas' Electric Oil: GHNTS—Last March I took a severe cold, and, being negligent in doctoring It, brought the'Asthma on me very severe. I could not not lie down or sleep for wliee/.lng and shortness of breath. I took this thing and that, and tried different doctors, but found no relief. Six months ago 1 saw an advertisement in the papers recommending Dr. Thoma's Eclectric Oil, so 1 thought Iwould try that,and wonderful to relate, yet nevertheless true, the'flrst dose I took relieved me in a few mlnut.es.and before 1 had taken onefourth of a 50-cent bottle 1 could breathe freely und sleep as well as over. It is equally as magical for ents, bruises, burns and rheumatism. I woke up a few mornings since with such a pain in my cliest, that 1 could not draw a long breath, My wife said, "rub oil Thomas' Eclectric Oil." 1 did so, and in a few minutes the pain was gone, and I have not felt it since. My wire, also, had a severe attack of rheumatism In the arm and side. Hhe applied the oil with the same result. 1 would not be wlthoul.it if 1 had to walk ten miles for it, and then pay ¥5 for a 50 cent bottle. I send you this testimonial hoping you will publish it, so that suffering humanity may be relieved of their aches and pains. "-j

These are facts which are proved by the following testimony, which we challenge the world to contradict:

A Baptist Minister's Experience. I am a Baptist minister, and before 1 ever thought of being aclergyman, I graduated In medicine, Dut left a lucrative practice for my profession, forty years ago. I was for many years a Sufferer from quinsy:—"Thomas' Eclectric Oil cured me." was also troubled with lidarseness: and Thomas' Eclectric Oil always relieved me. My wife and child had dlplitherlja. and "Thomas Eclectric Oil cured them," and if taken in time it will cure seven times out of ten. I am confide st it Is a cure for the most obstinate cold, and if any one will ta!ce a small teaspoon and half fill it with tho Oil, and then place tlie end of the spoon into the head by sniffing as hard as tfiey can, until the Oil falls Into the throat, and practice that twice a week, 1 don't care how offensive their head may be, it will clean it out and cure their catarrh. l'or deafness and earache it has done wonders to my certain knowledge. It Is the only medicine dubbed patent medicine that I have ever felt like recommending, and I am very anxious to sec it in every place, for I tell you that I would not be without it for any consideration. I am now suffering with a pain like rheumatism in my right limb, nnd nothing relieves me like Thomas' Eclectric Oil.
