Orlicial returns already received lead to the conclusion that Mr. Cleveland will lead Mr. IB i vine by a much iarzer vote than General C&rfeld did General Hancock. An esteemed reconciled Kepubli-an exchange eeems happy in indulging in the following: "Governor Cleveland speaks oat like & Trojan. He tells oar colored fellow citizens to kef p cool. They will be as com portable ander his strong administration as ii they elumbered in a melon patch with a h'-z watermelon for a pillow." Tuz Chicago Current utters this word of encouragement: "The Current can state on the authority of many of the ablest bankers uf tho country that a general business revival of the safest and most conservative character is already In progress. It ia idle Sot any partisan to claim that euch a revival ia due to this or to that. It ia here, that is t-nough. All good men are glad of iL" i'Oors dimes have appeared in large quaafc ties at Lawrence, Kas. The7 are generally o a very bright appearance, having a glazed Ht pearanc as though washed with or coated ith quicksilver. The wreath is badly exeruted, and under the words "one dime" are engraved two letters "C." They bear the eifcte 1375. No clew aa yet has been found as 1( their source. Tax bloody shirt organs, viz, the Chicago STribur.e, Commercial Gazette, Indianapolis Jourt-al. are wonderfully exercised over ths "loyalty" of the Democratic party, when it It is a notorious fact that these very three papers openly advocated the policy cf seccession that is, they were willing to let the Bouth 0. Fretty birds to chirp now ahout anybody's loyalty." That bitter tfiaune organ, tue B39toa Tra veller, has Bint out reporters anions the lealir.z laerchanta and business men of the city vita this leading question : "Do yon share jl".e gleomy iew3 of the business prospect wuicn are held in boüib quarters?"

'Klaiit came frightfully near being; fr'ected President," says the New York San. Whereupon the Atlanta Constitution re tnarks: "Does this Ban use the word frightfully' advisedly? If so this makes the fortypecond time the 8un has belted Blaine since Jane. It has been for Cleveland seventeen time, and against him thirty-eight times. Zt stood gillantly by Datier at three changes cf the moon, and in the whole campaign has iade an earnest endeavor to be live to its lgtDd The Sun shines for all.'" Ina few months Mr. Cleveland will be I'neident ot the United States. The eye? of the whole country will be turned toward Wasningtsn on the 4th of next March with joiore than usual interest. Oa that day will rot only a new President be inaugurated, J. at the Democratic party, for the first time la. twenty-four years, will aain be reinstated in power through the choice of the Nation. .-Till they try, by the wisdom o! their acta, lo justify that choice, or will they proceed fct as victors to divide the spoils, in accordance with the old barbarous and hackueyed y-olitical creed of former administrations? JMr. Clevelaad has a grand opportunity at ths very outset, by taking a new departure, to show in a sifnal manner hia good sense, moderation and magnanimity, And we av confidence that Mr. Cleveland will not hesitate to avail himself of this opportunity. New York Herald (Ind.). "Amx2icajs are well Christainized with the exception of a temporary relapse Into bartarUm every four years," sali Rev. Myron "W. Eeed, during one of his last sermons in this city. "When there is a President to fI act we get ogly and savage for some months. It is the a truth, at a period when we, as American citizens, in view of our awful responsibility act electors, should be the least 'nfluenced by passion, should be the most deliberative, we lie like pickpockets and disregard every rule of civilized warfare, or parliamentary order. The church, every four jsars, largely becomes a sham.

CLEVELAND ANNOYGD. A Washington special says "that Governor Cleveland was more annoyed by the story of a disagreement between himself and Mr. Hendricks than anything that had appeared lately in the papers. He said that ex Governor Hendricks, while on a trip Eist, traveled out of his way to pay a brief visit to hia associate on the ticket. Governor Cleveland was not aware cf bis coming, not having bad time that forenoon to read the New York papers. In which the visit was announced. The Governor said he was glad to eee Mr. Hendricks, and they had a very pleasant talk; that very little of their conversation related to politics, and that in a casual sort of way, and they parted in the Eort cordial ruanuaer possible." THE ALIEN LAND LAW, The Generel Assembly that chose Gene ral Harrison a United States Senator also passed an alien land act, permitting foreign capitalists to hold real estate in Indiana. There was a regular and a special session in 1831, and to repeal the dishonest measures it materialized into law, consumed most of the time in 1883, the Democratic Legislature. More hurtful than ever the alien laud law was the law settling estates which robbed decedents. But from ditching to the dog tax, as fast as the General Assembly could get aroend to them, they were repealed. Mr. J. 0. Blaine's Saturday Herald Bays: The repeal of tho alien land act will come before the Legislature. It is not known what will be Its fate. 'Ihe Democrats are not committed ou it. either for or against. But we mar Indulge the hope that i-nouKU of ttem will act wltu tue Ke publicans to re;-al the alien land law. it not ii'ls on lae Statut aa a coneeeslou to absentee landlords. It is a s:ep bick ward. To pledge to repeal an alien land law is something Democrats did not hare to da That species of barnacle never attaches to the ship of state when it was under Democratic officers. The holder of American soil by foreigners or corperate interests ia peculiarly Republican. T WO-SENATORIAL ELECTIONS. The situation over in Illinois makes ths comiDg election of a United States Senator peculiarly interesting. Not only do the two parties divide the Legislature equally, but each is said to be perfectly solid. There is rot an independent nor a Greenbacker nor a Prohibitionist in the body. Given no death and no absenteeism, the prospect in dicates an interminable deadlock. Should adjournment be had without an election the Republican Governor will appoint a Republican to the Senate. In New York the Republicans have a clear majority in the Assembly. If the Half-breeds and Stalwarts can so far harmonize as to consent unanimously to a caucus and to support its choice, the question of who shall be Senator will be easily determined. In that event present indications point to Ministe Morton aa the man. Conkhng's only showing ia for a number of Stalwarts to coalesce with ths Democrats. The latter docs not appear, now, to be probable, but then no one can predict assuredly of what New York State will ever do. It would appear that Conkling it full as likely to get back into the Senate now as he four years ago to go out of it NOT A HEATHEN. We have been almost persuaded Into the belief thvt our new President was a positive heathen Dot of the Inersoll tyre, exactly, but of ths don't-carea-snap brand. We have only Republican authority, however, for the opinion. The press of that party created the belief that Mr. Cleveland never went to church, and that his Sundays were si-eat In carousing and bumming around Albany. We would not be but prised, however, from some recent intelligence that he will go to church occasionally and be altogether quite as moral in his walk and conversation as our old friend Blaine and other good Republicans. Old Ren Terly Foore Bays m some recent correspondence that President Cleveland will attend the New York Avenue Presbyterian Church, the present pastor cf which ia Rev. Willlara Alvin Rartlelt, who waa his college classmate. President Lincoln used to attend the PresbytcTias Church, wben ha went anywhere, which waa seldom. Grant and Hayes were Methodists, Garfield attended the Christian Church, and Arthur worships at Sr. John's Episcopal Church, where he was married. Dr. Bartlett was at one time paator of ths Second Presbyterian Church of this city. Notwithstanding the recent strictures upon the good Doctor by our esteemed but erring cos temporary, the Journal, we are of the opinion that the good Doctor will, perchance, keep an eye on the new l"resldent and see that he do3 cot stray into forbidden paths. In fact, to be short, we believe that the new President posBeases more pure religion and Christianity to day than James G. Blaine plus all the Republican Presidents pat t gether. REFUSED TUB DOO. Ilepublican Presidents are on record as having accepted all the presents that were sent them. It any ef them ever refased anything it has escaped our attention. Buchanan and Johnstoa studiously refused to be placed under any obligations of this kind, and we believe this waa the case with the entire line ot Democratic Fresldecta. Mr. Cleveland proposes to follow in their footsteps. A Mr. Loader sent him a dog ihe other day. The President-eltjct returned it with ths following letter: ExxcrTrvx Mansion, ) Albas t, N. Y., Nov. 27, 1SSL Mr Deas Frksd Day before yesterday, when I arrived here in the evening from the Executive Chamber, I found in the house a toe Newfoundland dog, and yesterday I Iwned through your letter that the dog was intended as a gift from you. I hope you will not deem it affectation on my part when I write you tnat I am very adverse to receipts of gifts, especially ia the relation of stranger-i, which yon and I tustain to each other. A number of email gifts have twen sent to me, some ef them, doubtless, from those wh seek in this manner to thow their good will, while others have been received from those whom I suspect of attempting purely lo procure an acknowledgment. . It is hard to offend the former class by an exhibition of churlishness or lack of appreciation, and my disposition is to humor the desire of ths others. The acceptance of presents of value which could involve an obligation I should deem in my present position entirely inadmissible, and I confess I f hould feel better if all gifts of every description were discontinued. I have determined to assure you most heartily of my fall appreciation of your kindness in sending me the dog, and that I do not at all distrust your motive in doing so; and while thanking you for the friendliness which prompted the gift. I aak you to permit mo ts ret oxa. the se.

I rball please mywlf and hope cot to o3Vnd you by sending the dgg by express to your address to-morrow, at my expense. Yours, very truly, Gk ivta Cleveland. To William J. Loader, Eq., No. 215 Dean etreft, Brooklyn.

WHAT IS TAÜOHT IN THE SCHOOLS. It is told of Sir Walter Scott tbat during his last illness he called a friend to hi bedside and requested something read. "Shall it be history? ' was asked. "No," answered the old poet, with the candor that might have characterized him if standing in the paeeence of his Maker: "History is studied falsehood, a liel read to me from the Bible," That the author o! Ivanho knew exactly what he was talking, about and talked to the point, will be apparent to all who study what is being inflicted on an unoffending public through the instrumentality of the Common School system in the name of "Indiana History." For some time the energies cf ths Sentinel hays been engrossed in the labor of inspir ing individual Republicans with the manhood necessary to adapt themselves to the political order ot things, but time must Da taken to correct the authors of school books in the interest of publio education. - In the interest of correct history It may be well to elate that the romancer falls into error, unconsciously perhaps, in writing of General Harrison at the battle of Tippecanoe. There was no General Harrison on that Held. It was Governor Harmon, and .he was not commissioned until 1811. Tecumseh, the Indian warrior, is mentioned as having led the hoetile aborigines. The moccaunei brave, whose fall,whether by Dick Johnson's or some back wood niau's rifle, is yet a matter of dispute, was in Tennessee while Governor Harrison, with his citizen soldiers, was making the history on the Wabash that afterwards made him President and his nephew a United States Senator. By the way, both Harrlaan or Taylor won their laurels fighting Indians on Inaian soil. All the school histories and geographies alike write that the battle of Tippecinoe ended the Indian War. It is strange tint no one of the authors, out of the vast number who have accumulated fortunes in the school book business, has had neither the industry nor the sense to discover the truth. No wonder that Bruce Carr was defeated. What can be thought of a book that seriously perpetrates a blander that would warrant the discharge of a reporter from any respectable morning paper? The battle of Tippecanoe was followed by the Fort Derbon maaaacre, the siege of Fort Wayne, the battle of Fort Harrison, the Pigeon Roost massacre and the battle of Tipton's Island. The Gubernatorial muddle in Rhode Island during the administration of President Tyler is mentioned in all the histories, but on the Gubernatorial disputes in ArKansas, Mississippi, Louisiana, Florida and South Carolina, they are uniformly as silent as the sepulcher. There are no doubt some politics in this. The school-books, also, in regard to the policy of President Buchanan on the subject of coercion, not only dispute hia own word, but every state paper of that period. Bcchanan, though holding that a State could net secede from the Union, maintained that ths inhabitants of a commonwealth should be reproved with hot (hot, shell and gleaming bayonets for making the attempt; and no other theory was adopted by President Lincoln. One wa? s deeply puzzled as the other to find a way, under the Constitution, to avert or thwart disunion, until Southern madness, culminating in a hostile movement en Fort Sumter, furnished an opportunity. Major Anderson would have been as warmly sustained by a Democratic as he was by a Republican Executive. To assert that President Buchanan believed a State could secede, er that In was in doubt as to tne ability ot the General Government to coerce the people of a rebellious State; to meet and vanquish revolution with force; or that he held to a doctrine distinctive from the victor'ous policy of his successor in oilice, will do very well for campaign rot, bat it is not the proper thin to teach in the fchools. Mr. Lincoln's defense of the suprerascy of the Union was taken from Andrew Jackson's raessase on nullification. A Democratic Preeident had sworn by the Eternal to execute the law exactly as it was interpreted by the greatest of the Republican Presidents. It is an error to speak of "General Harrieon" at the battle of Tippecanoe. He waa at that time merely the Territorial Governor of Indiana. The Indians were not led by Tecumseh, and the battle was in disobedience of that Chief's orders. That conflict did not end the war, as many other battles end masacres followed. Between the policy of Mr. Buchanan and Mr. Lincoln there is no existing evidence of difference. There la nothing to jaatlfy au alleged historian in the assumption that the crime of firing on the flag, and tho beginning of hostilities on the part of the South, would not have been resented by the strong arm of the Government under the administration of one as it was by the other. Mr. Lincoln had been President for something over a month before issuing a call for troops to put down the rebellion, and It is gratifying to every patriotic citizen of the Republic, without regard to party, to know tbat Mr. Lincoln acknowledged no higher authority than that previously cited by President Jackson. Wisdom and patricti jm existed in America long before the birth of the lCepnbican party, and partisan fiction should not be accepted aa authenticated history. SNARLINO. The coutöö of the Republican leaders and organs since the election shows now bitterly and thoroughly they feel the force of the popular verdict against them. As a rattlesnake, when excited to great anger turns and bites himself, so ths demagogue Blaine, when knifed in the boose of his friends, tarns apoa his party and gives it a venomous bite iu proposing to disfranchise the negro voters. The balance of power held by negro voters In the last twelve years has given the - Republican party onehalf of the Northern States they have held, but because the Southern negro Republican vote which supported Arthur ia conven-; tioo did not go to the political pariah Blaine, that magniloquent blatherskite now proposes to diafranchLje them. Verily whom the gods would destroy the first magnetize. Ths whole gang of newspapers which has been so gloriously "gigged," turns in desperation to find someone into whom they can strike their fangs. Conkling the purest siftA to tholx part g (u m puUic

record Is concerned ia stigmatized as a traitor, a viper, a disappointed marplot. The whole pack, "Tray, Blanche and Sweetheart," are barking at Lis heels. Ho v m any stalwarts do they hope to bring back into their ranks by thiseuicidal nonsense? The choicest epithet which they apply to the Ifader ot the Prohibition party i"Judas T. 8t. John" Do they expect to lead Prohibitionists into the'r party lines by thus venting their spleen and vomiting their bi'e? Their ftrhole course shows how clearly both Blaine and his organs recognize ths troth that they are lost beyond redemption. Their great power in the past has been in the great vote which they held by appealing to the fears of the people that power is now pone forever. The day of bugbears is over. The free trade scare, the pension scar-, the solid Sooth scare, the bloody shirt scare will frighten the child-like voter no more. And with all this the cohesive power of pub' ic plunder no longer holds the g. o. p. together. The Republicans on the inside recognize this fact; they know their party is irretrievably ruined, end so like snarling wolves they rend each other and rave over the carcasses cf their former companions. It is a beautiful spectacle for ban est citizens to contemplate and fills the Democratic breast with joy. Let the mangling go on.

A MARKED DIFFERENCE. The word leadership, as applied to party, and "fitatesrnanshlp" differ widely in Eignificance. Morton was a political leader, everywhere quickening Into life the greatest adnnraticn tor his talents and energy of character, yet he wa3 never seriously tbi ught of by a great majority of the American people in connection with the Presi dency. People In his district, who refused to vote for Tom Brown for Governor of In diana, cheerfully contribute to his electoral support as a member to Congress. There seems to be a popular understanding of the fact that an order of ability, separate and distinct, is necessary for the two office. Leaders are required in legislative bodies; statesmen are invariably demanded for places of executive trust. In Anthony Trollope's ar.tobiography, this photograph of Lis ideal statesman is given; "lo rid one's self of fine scruples to fall into the traditions of a party to feel the need of subservience, not only in acting, bat also, even, in thinking to be able to be a bit, and at first only a littlo bit these are the necessities ot the growing statesman. The time ;may 'come, the glorious time, when some great self actions shall be possible, and shall be even demanded as when Peel gave up the corn laws; but the ruling man, as he puts on his harness, should not allow himself to dream of this. To become a good, round, smooth, hard, useful pebble is his duty; and to achieve this, he must harden his skin and swallow his Ecrup'.ea. But every now and again, we see the attempt made by men who can not get their 6k Ins to be hard, who after a little while generally fall out of the ranks. The statesman of whom I waa thinking of whom I bad long thought was one who did not fallout of the ranks, even though hia skin would not be hard. He should have rank and Intellect and parliamentary habits, by which to bind him to the service of his country, and he should also have uablsmished, unextinguishablo, inexhaustible love ot country. That virtue I attribute to our statesmen generally. They who are without it are, I think, mean indeed. This ' man should have it aa the ruling principle ot his life; and it should so rule him that ail other things ehould be made to give way to it. But he should be scrupulous, and being scrupulous, weak. When called to the highest place in the council of his sovereign, he should feel with true modesty his own insufficiency." When choosing men for President the American people have always avoided great political leaders. ' A Whig Convention preferred "Old Rough and Ready" to the great Webster aa its standard-bearer. Other great names were passed, and James K. Polk who the deuce is Jatne3 K. Polk? a singularly obacure man, whom the American people preferred to Clay, the old commoner, imicortal cecause of h'13 eloquence. It was not understood by the scholars of the psriod why the second National Republican Convention should have passed Seward and chouea to accept Abraham Lincoln. But that a wisdom higher than man impelled to this choice ia now universally admitted. It would neither be reasonable nor popular to attribute Mr. Lincoln's nomination to an accident. He was the character of man always called by popular euilrage to places of great responsibility. OFF -II AX I TAKINGS. It was a einart trick, bet the sinature will be "Hiram Miller, County Treasurer," all the same. It is said that should Logan be (defeated for the Senate he will write a book with the title, "How Jim and Me was Beat." The Indianapolis evening paper is illustrating the fable of the toad and the ox. It is bound to be as big a man M Hendricks, or "bust." So grateful are some Democrats to Dr. Three R's Burchard that they want to give him testimonial benefits. Dallas, Tex., Invites him there to lecture and guarantees him a full house. Never mind, "Nellie," the sLse of the new President's foot he will not accept your slippers. But if yon have begun them do not quit: we know several gentlemen who will need their consoling ere long. Would it not be well now for our ' Republican friends to call for an investigation of Smith Mver's tron.rs? May he not have tsarreptitioualy conveyed a few dozen ötnart and Wright ballots Into his hip-pocket? For the benefit of Republican penny-a-liners be It here said that the Sentinel chief can not accept the place of Government Printer. He will prefer to remain at horns to continue, as daring the late campaign, to chasllHS Republibau scribblers. Hate to disappoint you. boys, but we can't spare the old gentleman from his oversight of you. "It's the best joke,"ald a Hendricks man, laying a band confidentially on the other's bhouldei ; "it's the best joke of the season, the game the Governor has played on Indianapolis Republican papers. You see, every line they print against him makes the Democrats cling more closely to him. S9 he, every now and then,-ears something for their benefit throws out a bait, as it were. They bite every time swallow the hook and then he aud. Ida fxieada ait back, tad laugh,

t Ihe suckers he has caught Why, the abuts of tbofe papers daring the campalga irci gtbeued him wonderfally, and thay are kOicp to make him President in lSSä; eee if !he don't." "Yes, sir; I'm done betting on elections,' be said, as he fumbled in first one pocket at d then another for the beer nickel that w-s not there; "I bet three times straight on

.Democrats, then turned and this year put np every dollar on Blaine And what make rue ruad is tbat mugwumps won it all. It's awful; the whole country is going to ruin." The atmosphere of Indiana having become too cold after November 4 for "J. B.," of the Commercial Gazette, that ardent anti-Democrat has betaken his disgruntled pen down South and been using it as a spade to open graves of twenty and fifteen years aeo for Rebel and Ku-klux skeletons. J. B. is a hand-ame young fellow too young and too beautiful to be thus creaming and mantling his face with Republican post-election ecowle. Tity, pity. Here is the way a Democratic editor out in Arizona discusses ths matter: "The miserable scarecrow who tries to edit oar disesteemed contemporary i9 lying, as usual. We riop't want the postouice, but we are in the bands of our friends, and by the eternal they'll see that we get it, whether we want it or cot." If that genius talks thusly a. one "ecarecrow" what would he not say were be at the head of this paper and had three of ' the miserable" cawio at him? Suppose now that the stately figure, nettly fitting eye-glasses and good lookiog iTacs of lawyer and pro tempore judge, Ross Clark, should confront President Cleveland with a requett for the District Attorneyship Perhaps the idea ha never occurred to the eyeglasses referred to, but isn't fie eu?ie3tion worth a glance frono thena? True they may see at the same time a fcore of able competitors, but not one of them can hold a torch hitler in a Democratic procession. The argue eyes of that match-maker, the Chicago Herald, are dilating over the incident that President Arthur's sister, a b'coming widow, accompanied Governor Cleveland and his party on a recent visit to an educational establishment at Albany. The match-making hand of the Herald has farther written that the widower Arthur and Governor Cleveland's maiden sister may bo in meet. The inference drawn by the Herald need not be worded. It is justified by the maxim that "fair exchange 13 no robbery." On the 4th of next March will be seen on Pennsylvania avenue, Washington, D. C, a Quaker brimmed plug hat with a man of im mecte magnitude and preponderosity under it. As the inaugural procession moves past his stand, the stove pipe will be thrnstto the back of the large curly head, while from the widely extended mouth will float in Methodist camp meeting tones: This Is the way I lone have sought. And mourned because 1 found it not. It is needless to say the singer will be Bayless W. lianna, of theCrawfordsville Review. POLITICAL. NOTES. Pbepidext Cleveland will come into power finding 110,000 Federal offices almost wholly filled by Republicans, and most of them oGensive and many of them insolent and disreputable partisans. He will find it a pressing necessity to proscribe the proscription that has excluded Democrats from participation in public offices for nearly a quarter of a century; but he will doubtless halt far short of the old-time motto: "To the victors belong the epoila." Philadelphia Times (Ind.). Civil sebvick reform is going to bo, through a combination ot circumstances, the crucial test of the new administration. By that it must stand or falL Mr. Cleveland is not prominently known to the public in connection with any question of the day but administrative reform. 'It is around this point that all the expeditions or his friends center. It is en this point that his enemies look for his failure. We believe that he has the firm intention to do right and the courage to do it, and that he will go about his work le?s trammelled with pledges than anybody who has within fifty 'years occupied the Presidential chair.

They have never whined about it, and they do not propose to foul it at this late day. They expect no pensions and want none. It ever a proposition to that end ia made, it will either come from Northern Republicans, Betking rebel alliances, or from eome irresponsible Southern demagogue who thinks to come it over his constituents, but who will be quickly sat down upon. Be sure of that, Louisville Courier-Journal (Dem.). I r is no longer questionable that a villainous conspiracy existed to steal a eeat in the United States Senats by seating a Democrat in the State Senate on forged returns. In the midst of their exultation over a great National victory, and over an immense gain in their own State, the Democrats of Illinois were alow to believe this charge, and mast now show that their attitude toward it was a matter of misplaced confidence, and not of a desire to profit by the crime aad protect its perpetrators.' 8uch a crime as the latter have committed in this case is the worst, because it is the msst insidious and dangerous form M treason to the sovereignty of the people. It is a etab at the heart of our Erstem of government, and life Imprisonment would not be punishment too severe to mark the gravity of each a crime. Those who have seen the glory of their recent success stained aad its promise clouded by this affair owe it to themselves to see that no guilty person escapes the " pitiful penalty now provided by law, aad that all who might have exposed the conspiracy are themselves mercilessly exposed. The honest and decent Democrats of Chicago should make it a personal matter, and take such action as will show all the world that their party has no use for nor sympathy with met who pietend to serve it by stuffing ballotrbexfsor forging election returns.- St. Louis Post-Dl3patch (Dem ) If bat Do the Druggists Say?

Tuk following concluding sentsu ces from an unpublished letter of Charles Dickers, dated November IG, 18G3, are interesting a proofs of the earnest fashion in which the popular novelist succeeded in Identifying himself with the character of his own creation at the time when he was reading to enthusiastic audiences certain passages from hia own works: "Come early ia January,1 he writes, "and see a certain friend of youn do the murder from 'Oliver Twist.' It is horribly like, I am afraid. I have a vague sensation of being 'wanted' as I walk about the streets." Writing to ths eame friend la the January of 1809. he says further with regard to his readings: "I do not commit the murder again in London until Tuesday, March 3. I have not read The Chimes' for ten years. I am afraid it is a little dismal, but I have shortened and brightened it as much as possible. I hope yon will come and see the murder done," Eats Field says she spent eighteen mouths in Utah without eating one well-cooked meal. Kate should have purchased herself a penny's worth of salt, a two-bit sirloin steak, and a nickel's worth of rolls at the baker's. Then, by the aid of a etove-peker or shovel and a bed of coals in her grate at the hotel, Bhe could have had a well-coeked meal fit for a k ing. D. T. Daly, an old newspaper man, writes to the Wilkesbarre News Dealer that while a boy, living in Fayetteville, N. Y., where Grover Cleveland's father preached to a Presbyterian congregation, he had a doctrinal discussion with young Cleveland one night which resulted in a fight, and the future President got away with Daly. Patti's divorce from the Marquis de Canx having been pronounced absolute by French law, she is to be married for the third time to Nicollni in France, having been married to him in 1378 in a Greek Church, after obtaining a divorce in another country, and again two years ago, to avoid litigation after her death concerning an eotate belonging to her in the south of France.

Offallng; With Barbarian. 1 Covington Commonwealth. A man of brutal instincts gets drunk, and failing to provide the necessaries of life for his family, knocks down his wife because ehe has not got a hot supper ready for him. and 1. en turns his children into the street on a winter night lie is arrested, possibly fir which he does not pay, cr committed to tl a jail or workhouse, where he is more comfortably provided for than he would provide for himself. Just such a case is reported in Louisville. JuEt such caw are reported here or there nearly svery day in the year. Is tho Fnniahment adequate to the oifense? Does t have the slightest reformatory edect upon the brufal offender? The lash would make the wretch squirm. He would remember it with a shudder. He wou)d not be apt to repeat hia festive spree. P.ct we may be told that "the lash is a relic of barbarism." When the law has to deal with a barbarian, to be effective iu methods mu?t be adapted to the case. When Noah was in the ark young Ham was always playing tricks on the old gentleman. One day he told bis sea faring father tbat there was water in the cellar and, they had all caught cold.

Cleveland has returned the Newfoundland dog presented to him the other day by some Democratic admirer. It was too yonn and amiable to be of any use. What ths Governor wants is a bulldog of the most ferocious type, with a particularly ravenous appetite lor orhce-eeekers. A dog of this kind could find constant employment at Albany. Awful Thing.
