WEDNESDAY. NOVEMBER 27.
Amoso the questions constantly pushed to the front and demanding an answer is thia: ''Have the people or the mules and horses 'the best right to the street crossings; and if 'either has to stand in the mud till the other goes by, which one must come to' halt?" As the case now stands, men, women and children must get out of the way or be ran oyer. Drivers of vehicles, as a general thing, pay no attention whatever to the rights ot r edeftriana, provided they have any rights. Canada is in a ferment of loyal and royal excitement over the arrival ot the duke of Edlnburg, the prince of the royal breed and blood, and the marquis of Lome and his queenly wife, Louise. An influx of so much royalty is enough to upset affairs in her majesty's American dominions, and it will be some time before the public tuind will get back to such things as codfish and herring, from which the queen's subjects derive their chief support. If there ever was such a thing as codfish aristocracy, Canada can boast of having her full share, as the United States are fully aware, having just paid $5,500,000 to support it in all of its royal magnificence The indications are that the world is to have a pretty serious shaking up by volcanic forces a large number of volcanoes being inactive eruption, and a number of earthquikes haviDg already occurred, productive of alarm and serious loss of life and property. The theory is that by deep subterranean passages all volcanoes are connected, and that somewhere In the bowels of the earth the fiery tides ebb and flow as do the tides of the ocean, and when these billows of fire take certain directions calamities are the result at points remote from the volcanoes. Along the Andean range, from Chill to Central America, numerous shocks have lately been ft It, some of which have traveled as far northward as St. Louis, but Central America seems to have more than its share of troubles, for with earthquakes, which shake down houses, the people are called upon to witness the ravages of grasshoppers and to confront the possibility of starvation, and, in addition to all this, their usual stock of revolutions is not diminished. Surely Central America, with all of its tropical glories, is not a desirable place to live OPI'OSIAU ruRCCt. ' The theory that wrongs may be corrected if the right is left free to combat them is of ancient origin, and includes every form of vice and every appliance, of virtue. Asa general proposition tociety accepts It in all of its bearings upon the welfare of the state. Notwithstanding this the fact is gaining strength that vice in its multiform phases is steadily gaining advantages and becoming more impregnably intrenched in Its defiant attitude. It builds lis citadels in the very center of population; hangs its banners up on the outer walls of its fortifications and challenges combat; It defies the law, the courts, religion and the church, schools and their influence in fact, its attitade daily becomes more and more menacing, until good people stand appalled before its growing power. Prisons and the gallows, social ostracism and human and divine denunciations eeeni to have lost their power in restraining the vicious tendencies of the times. It would be difficult, i! we listened to popular comments, to conceive of a more untoward aspect of affairs, and the subject is daily becoming of greater gravity to these who make social science their study. Penitentiaries were never in the history of the country so crowded, and criminal courts were never so burdened with business. Crime is becoming of a more aggravated character, with the introduction of a variety of new features which tax the powers of the moat graphic pen for' adequate description. While this is accepted truth, we find, on the other baud, that Bibles were never so numerous; tracts, inculcating morality and religion la short and easy lesous, are falling in allot the high, ways of society almost as numerous as autumn leaves. In all directions church spires can be seen and - the messengers of Christ's gospel be beard proclaim log glad tidings to men. Free schools are everywhere in full operation, and the youth of the laud are being taught les&ons of wisdom to guide them in the duties of clllienship. Still vice is growing in Its defiant strength, and we are asked to believe that the world is growing worse instead of better Is It so? If the question is answered affirmatively, then the conclusion is inevitable that virtue, the right with Its eternal veri ties, is not equal to the wrong in arresting its advancement, and the maxim that error may be tolerated if truth is left free to combat it Is a mistake, and something else will have to be done to secure the public good. We are of the opinion that if all the machinery of virtue were confided to men who would operate it in the interests of society, vice would be arrested at least its tidal waves would not roll so high nor submerge so many. In such a condition of things tbe law would be no respecter of persons, and the welldre.s.d votary of vice would bow as low before the majesty of . the law as bin ragged colaborer. Tbe churches, whose mission it is to embrace all the people as loving' ly as did Christ himself, and in a special manner look after the poor, would be do re specter of persons, and salvation would be offered to all without regard to palatial hemes or bank accounts, and seats In tbe sanctuary would no longer be offered to the hfghest bidder for the display of wealth and ostentation, and the man or woman In plain garb would be offered the waters ot life with as much solicitude as their wealthier neighbors. There would be in the sanctuaries of religion no paupers' benches, or if such things were known God's poor would occupy seats ot conspicuous honor. As the case now stands, the church is shorn of its greatest power and glory by its abandonment of tbe vital examples of Its founder, and the poor those whose elevation it is the sublime mission of the church to secure are treated as if they had no souls to save and no ' intellectual capabilities to be developed. They can enter the sanctuary only to be reminded of their lowly condition, and to exhalt by contrast their more favored neighbors. In this
way the church has lost Its hold upon the masses, and no matter how earnestly men may preach their example is more powerful, and drives men from them. The time has arrived for the patient review of the causes of the subject that have produced tbe increase of crime in the country, and it is likely tube found that the forces which might be employed in securing a great improvement have been permitted to remain inert, and that the situation has been vastly aggravated by legislation which has closed avenues to honest employment and forced thousands into the ranks of idlers, and placed them in contact with vicious associations, ultimating in their exile from society. We are ot the opinion that this state of things can not long endure. Society will find methods for protecting its Interests, though it necessitates a complete revolution by which the present' order gives' 'place to a new regime, in which the guardians of the public welfare will be selected from the ranks of those who will put In operation all the vast resources that the right can command. Under the new dispensation, if it becomes necessary, penltentaties will be enlarged and multiplied, policemen and detectives will be men who, acknowledging their allegiance to the welUare of society, will make no compromise with the vicious. Halters and scaffolds will play their part, aDd, if it is necessary, tbe church will be reformed to an extent that will give the teachings of the got pel their greatest power. ' Instead of croaking, the times demand action, firmness and a supreme faith In tbe power of the right
OI'KCAUKIVOHUCM INSANE. An examination of the report of the In sane Asylum of our state for 1877 shows that the snug little sum of 114,739.89 was spent for meats, under tbe beads of beef cattle, pork, etc. This does not . include poultry, game, oysters, or eggs, of which large quantities are used, and which, in many asylums are used in lieu of meat, from time to time. This strikes us as being the highest animal diet on record for a bos pital, where a large number of patients daily partake of no animal food. Good meats can be had at wholesale at four cents per pound; $11,739.89 divided up among tbe average attendance of patients, reported as G12, gives each one of them one pound and a half of meat per day a little over six cents worth per capita, throwing in the game, poultry, eggs, oytUre, etc., to feed the officers and attendants, which not being reported for this year, may be estimated at about one hundred persons. This quantity of animal food for a hospital surpasses anything of tbe kind which we can find recorded In works upon food, scientific researches upon diet, or hospital reports. For instance, in France where hospitals are well managed, we find the insane have an average of 1 (out) pound of meat cr week; the Edinborough Royal Asylum. Scotland, 2 (two) pounds per week; Richmond Asylum, near Dublin, three pounds; Sussex County Hospital (England) one and a quarter pounds per week. One of the best schools in England, consisting of four hundred persons in growing and robust health, consumes two pounds and three ounces per bead per week. One of the most careful English physiologists reports to this government, as an expert, that a man in good health, at moderate exercise, requires twopouuds and three ounces of meat per week, and one and one balf dozen of eggs, or four pounds and six ounces ot meat without eggs. In all well regulated hospitals there is a diet table, to which the physician orders his various patients. In the United States General Hospital, where more meat is aPowed per man than any hos pl'al in the world in, the different diet tables, we find tbe following: Full Half Low Diet. Diet, Diet. Pounds per week per capita .8 3i it MILK DIET. Lb. Ox. Lbs. Ox. Chicken A A Bef tea 3 0 Persons who have managed United States hospitals say this allowance far exceeds the demands of the pitients, and that a large quantity of the allowance goes to the hotpi tal fund. Were it not that official report of other Insane asylums in the world show differently, one might suppose that insanity rendered a man strictly carnivorous. The question Is, Are the patients at the Indiana Asylum In perfect health and good digestion, produced by bard and constant labor? or, Have tbey a couple of hundred who are on low diet and a couple of hundred on balf diet? Will the next legislature's committees on hospitals and charities see? A CiKirL&IIKAKrEO BANKER. God knows there Is too little forgiveness In the world Gentle words are too seldom uttered. The tendency is to coldness, harbh nets, Implacability, which permits none of the generous. Impulses of the soul to find utterance. There are scalding tears with none to arrest their flow; there are wails of sorrow where no kind words are uttered to assuage the grief or mitigate tbe heart pangs that produce them; there are darkened homes where no words ot love and conization are beard, and where the sunshine of sympathy never enters; there are bowed forms bearing heavy burdens tramping along to pauper's graves, and no friendly doors are open where the unfortunate tramp may lay down his burden and rest for a while aud listen to the music of angel voices; tber is neglected childhood which no gentle hand leads from the pathway of vice; there are pitying pleas for help where no generous band is extended. God knows the world is cruel in many of its aspect, and hence it becomes a matter worthy of note when a rich man discloses a tender heart overflowing with sentiment and forglvenet. It is music of rare excellence. Such words were uttered by the Hon. John C New, as reported in the public prints, when being Interviewed with regard to tbe indiscretions of two young men. lie said: Although 1 was the i.TKta loser, pecuniarily by the dedications, I have not nought to add one drop to tbe cup of sorrow off.be Innocent families of these young men, nor is it la my heart lo add a pang to tbe decllulng jears ol the mother of the oue, or aId a leather's weight to the feeble frame and tottering steps, now on the verge ot the grave, of the mst woi thy and honored fattu r of the other. We do not suppose that there is an ind'n vidual in Indiana who will take exception to Mr. New's kind words, the only question being as to the propriety of so much love and so much tenderness under the circumstances. To add weakness to the tottering
steps of age is itself a crime, and the same is true if additional sorrows are added to the burden of those who are standing upon the brink of the grave, and young men whose parents with yearning solicitude have placed them in positions of' honor and usefulness, if they forget their obligations to their parents, are guilty of ingratitude so flagrant that the verdict of condemnation can not ba withheld, and it makes other departures from virtue all the more haggard. The obligations of society are to those who advocate its priceless incentives to virtue. And the well being of society demands not vlndictiveness, not cruelty, but a firm hand In the administration of such discipline as will demonstrate that the way of tbe transgressor is hard, and even this discipline, however severe, may be lovingly and forgivingly administered, with special reference to the reformation of the guilty; but above all and over all, teaching others that honesty is the best policy; that virtue brings with it glorious rewards and abundant honors, filling all hearts with peace and with joy unspeakable. It will not do, therefore, to obscure wrong doings w.'ih sentimentalism, or shrink from obedieme to the law because those who are in its tolls, by virtue of practices violative of its teaching, occupy positions that should have been their protection in times of temptation. Mr. New deems it proDer to intimate tbat others who take a different view of crookedness In business to tbat entertained by himself are not animated by a proper regard for the well being of society. He says: If other people are more vindictive again it these young men, they are welcome to nurw their malice, so far as I am concerned. This language illy comports with the requirements of tbe case. We know of no occasion for vindictiveness or malice in tie treatment of such cases as Mr. New comments upon, nor do we believe that any such feelings prevail in this community, and It will be a most lamentable state of affairs if, when the public demands the execution of the laws in aty esse where they have been flagrantly violated, tbe ends of justice are defeated by the charge of vindictiveness or malice by those whose positions in society and the church are of such a character as to give their accu" aatlons commanding prominence. Under such circumstances violations of the law might go unpunished and even unrebuked, whereby tociety would suffer irreparable injury. Let us have words of kindness, of gentleness, of love and of forgiveness. Let us have sj nipathy for tbe sorrowing, words of consolation for the distressed; but let us guard well our emotions, so that in giving
them action we do not commit tbe grave error of condoning crime. THE INM7NTRIF.M OF THE SOUTH There Is one phase of southern affairs which radical orgaos, in their desire to reinaugurate anarchy in .that section, studiously ignore. The honest explorer for in dustrial statistics will search in vain for them In the ' volumes of radical bloody shirt organs. Such papers .are anxious only to ascertain the details of petty disturbances for the purpose of magnifying mole hills to mountains. Every batroom wrangle, every bloody nose or black eye, or, as police reports put it, ''plain drunk," is tortured Into a tremen dous act of disloyalty to tbe government, demanding federal Interference and the revival of Grant's bayonet policy. This has been going on for years, and now the radical party Is endeavoring to create a wild senra tlun throughout the north predicated upon such instances of disturbance as we have mentioned. Sensible people abominate such proceedings from first to last they are tired and disgusted with tbem, and they turn from them with loathing. Tbey prefer to know whst tbe south is doing in the way of rebuilding its industries and of bringing order out of chaos. Tbey assume, and correctly, too, tbat if there Is so much disorder, oppression and bulldozing as radical organs report, the fact will appear in the industrial s'atis'ics of the south. The great Industry of the south is raising cotton, and, without referring to the production cf other great staples, this will answer our purpose and serve to correct the falsehoods of bloody ' shirt organs snd the apostles of hate. It is assumed tbt the cotton crop for 1878 will reach 5,000,000 bales. Estimating 400 pounds to tbe bale gives a grand total of 2,000,000,000 pounds, which at eight cents a pound would give a sum total ot $160,000,000. It is stated that the average of three bales to the hand is approximately correct. Accepting this as a basis of calculation the product of 5,000,000 bales would require the employment of l,tiG0,6GG hands, which must be nearly all the available force tbat - tbe cot ton states have for tbe production of the great staple. The fact then will b readily conceded that to produce such a vat-t amount of cotton the labor of the south mud of necessity be well organized a condition of things In diametric opposition to the statements of tbe bloody shirt organs, for if there extsted oppression, traanyand intimidation productive of disorder andidleness, no industrial enterprise of great magnitude could work out such results as our figures disclose, and the conclusion, therefore, is inevitable that tbe bl-iody shirt organs, true to their mission, wheu referring to sou tbe ro affairs lie like the dei1, and that their ataements are entitled to no consideration whatever. In this estimate of southern industrial aflVirs we omit special reference to the productiou of sugir, rice and tobacco to various manufacture and other tourcs of wealth, all of which r." q aire the employment of labor, and which are dependent to a very largw degree upon the negro. Tbe fact tbat all of three interests are reviving sufficiently demonstrates the essential vMousnes f the radical organs in their eff jrts to misrepresent and vilify the south and to poison public eentlmentof tbe north. Tbetr policy deservea tbe severest cotidemna'ion, which, we are inclined to believe, it will receive. .

DRAMATIC BIBLE BEADIXG.
Sew Cbnreb Servleew Proposed by Bap. tlst Ministers Tbeolvffleal Seminar lea B'anied for Rending- Ont Horrible Readers. JNew York Sun. J The Baptist ministers have In their weekly conference a regular order of proceedings, io which is an opportunity for questions and replies. Brother Swan, of Newark, briskly jumped up in yesterday's session of the conference, and said: "Brethren, there's a good, honest Baptist deacon in Newark who has been offered a position as bookkeeper in a wholesale Newark grocery where ardent liquors are cold not over the counter, but in whole bottles to families. Tbe deacon doesn't know whether he will do right or not in accepting the position. He has a situation now yie'ding a small income, but he wants to get more salary to give for charitable purposes." "He'd be a bigger fool than most Baptist deacons if he doesn't accept the position," broke In the Rv. Dr. Miller, of Greenpoint. He'd bn a big fool if he did aceept'cried the Rev. Dr. Iteid.of Wilhamsburgb, and he hopped up to defend his position with a speech. A chorus of aniens from the brethren greeted him. Dr. Reld told the story about the late D. B. Gale, In St Louis, who refused to add tbe wbolealeing cf liquorj to his regular business, and amassed a fortune even while his fellow traders were predict ing bis financial ruin. ''The churches," added Dr. Reid, "must fight this whUky question, and not be so lax about their members engaging in that trade." Dr. M'ller jumped up and wanted to know whether it was any business of the Newark deacon what the firm sold if he was only bookkeeper. "There Is no rum in the inksrsud, is tture?" he exclaimed. "I have been identified with the temperance cause all my life, but there are ways of striking a tbe rum tradlc'without knocking bread and butier out of our moutbs. If we go to the root of the question, then why not. In all reason, attack tbe deacons who buy liquor and drink it? Isnotthisqutstion just as applicable to the tobacco as to tbe liquor traf fic? and, if it is, then bow about the cburche in Connecticut tbat are supported by the tobacco raisers there?" Then Dr. Reid ar gued that the old cry of "businrss is business and religion is religion is fallacious, and that ministers can not be too firm in resist ing Satan as the liquor fiend. A brother In tbe rear seats . sLouted for a vote on the Newark deacon question, but he was not heeded, and the moderator, amid tmme confusion. Introduced tbe Rev. Dr Geo. M. Stone, of Tarrytown, who would tell the ministers "how to read the Bible for the best elocutionary effect before a congregation." Comment while reading the Bible in the pulpit, the speaker Baid, bus seemed to become necessary, because ministers have ot saturated themselves tbor uh'y with tbe spirit of tbe sacred text. I'ainlul study 1 necessary to give proper accent and emphasis. Emphasis I?, in fact, the best exegesis. Of all writing, tbe Bible is the most vivid. The l'silms of Job are generally -considered the grandest reading, but in the speaker's view, tbe conversations of Christ may hi made most Impressive. Butthts must be, studied spiritually, and wben so studied they are seen to carry ev dences of their truth to fact through their being true to nature. Tbe speaker gave what he called an 'objt-ct lessou." Taking a ehininr balf dollar to rep'etent tbe penny, with Cesar's Image and euprrscription with which Christ confounded bin questioners, Dr Stone recited, dramati cally, the incidet s as related in St. John's Gospel. The speaker's main object, he went oz to asy, was to persuade the brethren t hold on every Sunday evening services o: Bible readings onlj. No preaching, butonly selections from tbe Old and New Teetameuts bearing on one topic, for Instance, the Atonunent. or the 'Resurrection. lie had tried it in Tarrytown, and the evening meetings were better attended than those in the morning when be preached. Brother Brouner liked the notion of Bible reading on Sunday evenings. He bad compiled a charge to tbe candidate, the Rev. A Stewart Walsh, in the South Biptist church In this city lately, and every word of the cbarg" was from the Bible. The Rev. Dr. Aruiltage told the speaker that it was v-r successful because not a word of it was tbe speaker's. Laughter. The Rev. Dr. Elder thought that gestlcu latiori in pulpit readmgof the Munday morning lesson would hardly be acceptable to a congregation now. As a separate part o' the service, just as an anthem differs from byrun flnnlng.it might do. Brother Fol well a No questioned the acceptableness of gestures to the people. Brother E. J. Foole said that ministers do not know bow to read the Bible to tbelr congregations That it is trurt is proved by i's having survived ro much bad readiig. Laughter. lit btiskep--are i-hnuld be read as the Bible is, then it would be hissed from the stage. The theological seminaries are to blame for sending out such horrible readers. "That'sso!" cried tome of tbe ministers. The Rev. Dr. Wayland Iloyt said tbat if a preacher has tbe pluck to get no in a pulpit and recite drauiatic1ly, be'd b-tt-r do It. The trouble is that Protestant ministers are the slaves f trad. t on. No cross must be raised on the churches because Roman Catholics io that; no gestures must be use 1 in rea iing GoJ'n Word bcausH that would be theatrical. Then, too, li is terribly bard work torad the Scripture dramaticallyharder than to make a sermon. Tbe preacher mut see the Jews, see Jesus, see the coin, and see the expression on the faces of the speakers. Dr Stone, in conclusion, said that the preachers are given too much to bibliolatry. The Bible is a kind of luperHiiiious work Yet be believed tbat the name of 01 should always be Soken with holy reverence. , rTlie Hoy l lit ('bestnnts, I Detroit Free Pre J A rat of a boy, who bad in vain searched the post office corridors for tbe nickel which a earless band occasionally drops at the stamp clerk's wind w, took bis position hefore a chestnut stand and ejed the fresi ruts a long time before drawing a deep nlh and groaning: ' Ob, I wish 1 was rich!

There are several machines fr developing the electricity. 8)me ot these are on exhibition at tbe American Institute Fair in this city and the light is extremely
white and pure and ef great illuminating power. Any mill having a good steady water power can run a dynamo-electric machine capable of supplying a current for a number of lights. One machine now In use is said to be able to keep 17 lights going, each light being equal to 3.000 candle power, and without danger of fire or explosion. Tbe delicate shades of colors can oe detected by this light as well as by sunlight. The expense, after tbe first cost of tbe machine and its cotnectionajncludes thecost of power to run the machine, the cost of attendance upon tbe engine (or power) and tbe machine, the wear and tear of apparatus, and the cot of tho carbons burned in the lamps. Where tbe power is in use for other purposes tbe expense, of course, for this item is nothing. The carbons consumed in each lamp cost from three to five cents per hour. There is much more to be said on this subject which we must reserve until an other occasion.
SENATOR I.AUAR Talks m Little on Nnbjeets f Interest. The Hon. L. Q C. Lamar, United States senator from Mississippi, was in the city yesterday, and stopped at the Grand Hotel. A Commercial reporter met him last evening at tea, in company with the Hon. Job Stevenson, and talked with the honorable gentleman on affairs of state. Mr. -Lamar, by the way, is looking very well, and seems to be in the best of health. Our reporter first asked Mr. Lamar concerning the yellow fever in Mississippi. Sa d the senator: '"It was, in proportion, a far greater calamity than the war. Speaking proportionately, the war never claimed one tithe of tbe victims this dreadful pestilence did. It was a terrible blow to the i-outb, which was just beginning to revive, after the prostrating effects of the war. It swept away whole families from the face of the earth. It left farms and plantations without owners great business houses wuh out proprietor", and trade and society generally completely demoralized. It will take 3 ears to rebuild and get back to the starting place sgain. "Two things were shown conclusively during tbe prevalence of the plague that have never heretofore been decided. One is that tbe disease is not only infectioua but contagious also as contagious, indeed, as the 8m all pox or tbe measles. TJiis was effectually proven a thoasaud times over. Never a person came in contact with the disease and escaped it. They caught it by contact, and so the disease was shown to be undoubtedly contagious. Again, it was pretty aatia factorily demonstrated that the disease can be kept off by thorough quarantine. In fact, the whole lesson of the reign of the pes ilence is to show that a thorough and well regulated quarantine will keep out the disease. I might cite as instaaces of this, Mobile, iVnsacola, and my own town, Ox'ord, Miss. The yellow fever was kept out. of those places by prompt and persistent aud vigilant quarantine. There was evidence of the wisdom of Providence in sending the plague, and of th truth tlut some good must come out of all thing", no matter how adverse or calamitous tbey may seem at tbe time." "What do you mean?" said our reporter. "I mean tbat the action of tbe north toward the 'mtb in her latest hour of desolation and allliction hm done much to bridge over tbe charms between the two parts of the nation, to heal old wounds and to inculcate good feeling and good will in tbe place or party and sectional hatred and distrust. the south can never forget the grand, hart felt, splendidly fj nerous manner in which the north, so little a time ago her deadly enemy, came to her aid with money and medicines, and material aid of a'l kinds, and worda of comfort and encouragement and good cheer. It took away hard feelings long cberUbed and softened bitterness long felt." "How about the president?" suggested tbe re(orter, while the senator lifted his heavy mustache with one band, while with tbe other he deposited an oyster beneath it. ' He is looked upon and thought of roost kindly In the smth." said tbe honorable gentleman, "and I assure you I do not be lieve there will be any change In bis policy toward tbat section of tat country, nor can I see anything in the late election or in recent affairs of ary kind, to warrant the belief that there will be any change in the attitude of Mr. Hrtyes toward the south." "You do not, then, believe in a change of policy on the part of the presidentr' "EtupbatUallv no," taid Mr. Lamar, as he set bla teetb firmly nn the last ovs'er in the bowl, "I do not. We have faith in and be lieve in the president in the south, and we believe he will stand by his promioe lav his letter of accepiai.ee to the end of hiaterm, no matter what party chauges may occur in the north." "About resumption and tbe financial question?" sngiieited our reporter, as tbe senator set atdde his empty oyster bowl. The bonorcble) gentleman turned from the table to the reptrterand said: "Idontfrel qualified to represent my people upon tbat question, and cun not sty anything to you on the rua'ter, because the yellow lever has prevented me trom going about among them during the summer and learning how tbey ttood on the tuatter. But this I can say, that they will never let the financial question disunite them on the que stiou of local politics. As long as the north makes their local matters and politics a qus'ion of national and pnrty imporiauee, tbey will not be turned aid by the financial question generally, or the question of resumption in particular." The senator endeavored to make himself particularly plain upon this point, and our reporter in tbe words above has tried to state what be said In a few words and as exactly as possible. There was some other general and desultory conversation, but what was important in the marks of the senator is given in what has been written. Nobody can me-t 8enator Lamar withont being most favorably impressed by him. He pease carefully and cautiously, but with emphasis and f flert. and in hi demeanor is a pleasant and cultiva'e I gentleman. NwllaerlniKl lu Word. I Edward King In Boston Journal.

Applied by this incongruous a'jfctive, the boy tried sin in the hope of obtaining mr-. explU-t information. "Ye And did you ee the Alps, and how did they look?"' "The Alps, boy?
