The New York World thinks that Mrs. Par
ker, who shot another woman in public
place in this city, has entitled herself to q for
eign mission, according to the new ethics at
Washington" The allusion is easily under
stood, but there is one thing to be observed in
regard to this and all similar insinuations:
Democrats and Democratic journals find no
difficulty in condoning the most aggravated
cases of moral delinquency, provided the per-
sons who are guilty of them have not, in some
way, either on the field of battle or elsewhere,
done harm to the enemies of the Republic and
distinguished themselves by fidelity to the flag
of their country.

SENATOR SPRRGUE, who has just returned
from the South, does not estimate the next
cotton crop at more than two or two and a
quarter million bales He says that oaoing to
the uncertainty of negro labor, it has become
improbable to carry on large plantations, and
most OF the--> crop is now furnished by farms
that yield fror one to five and so on up to
fifty bales. A s other authorities give an ae-
count of the RI sliability and efficiency of negro
labor that conf diets with Senator sprague's, it
is just possible that the words we have itali-
cized may be 81 symptom Of that gentleman
new political tendencies.

That is a very cowardly attack upon the car

Portland Press insinuates that some rivals Of
Mr.. Charles P. Kimball have put him forward

THE Biddeford Journal again declares that
it will favor free fight against Chamberlain
until the oath of June and will then submit to
the decision of the Republican Convention
with the best possible grace and counsels all
good Republicans to do likewise. In the same
paper we find obscure illusions to IAN em-
ployee" of the Press Office which the editor of
the Journal no doubt understands. To all the
rest of the world it will remain forever an un-
answered conundrum.

CUBA, PERU AND SPAM.-A Washington
dispatch says that the recognition of the Cuban
Republic by Peru is not regarded in govern
ment circles as an event of great Importance.
It is supposed that other South American Re-
pPblics will follow the example of Peru. but it
is not thought that the Cubans will care for
annexation to any of them. The sale of mon
itors by our government to Peru excited mis-
givings in the mind of the Spanish minister,
who suspected that they were really intended
for Cuba, especially as great elaboration was
shown by their new owners in getting them
home. But the Peruviaps were required to
give bonds, at the time of the sale that they
should not be used against any country with
which the United States are at peace until
after their arrival at Peru. They are now
at st. Thomas bound for Barbados

rapidly since, till now ] am able to be about

MYNHEER PAUL DIETRICH, of Milwaukee,
feeling his earthly tabernacle, stored with
troubles, to be expelled, decided, after full en-
quiyy and investigation, to employ Ayers
Bills. In his haste to purify his Dutch stom-
ach, he mistook the directions, to z, and
swallowed q for dose. This created, Of
conrse, an appalling internal rebellion. But
Paul went drought the fight like hero, and
came off victor at last, with renovated sys-
tenn which he proudly exhibits as proof of the
wisdom of his choice. He advises everybody
to take Doct Ayers Pills, but kindly advises
his friends who are ambitious of following his
example, to "pe sure and take der right bottom.

The LATEST ON THE GOVERNOR QUESTION
The Eastport Sentinel removes all doubts as
to its views, by answering an article in the
Ellsworth American and coming out unequiv-
oeally for Chamberlain.
The Somerset Reporter continues its vigor-
our support of the same candidate and pub
fishes communication from a temperance
man who adiures his associates not to abandon
the Republican party, but to submit to the will
of the majority.
The Belfast Progressive Age expresses views
in harmony with the above, and says that the
contemplated action of the temperance men ia
"fraught with more serious results to prohibit
ton than to the Republican party"
The Oxford Democrat continues in its cor
respondenee to advocate the nomination Of
Sidney Perham.
The Bath Times, anti Chamberlain, permits
friend of the Governor to say that 1--WE shall
soon see who the men are, and how many they
are, who dare to carry the idea (of bolting)
into execution"

The last number Of the Revolution is decid-
.edly spicy. Olive Logan turns upon her critics
and defends her ideas of dress valiantly. She
holds that the fashion of the period is the cri-
terion OF decency and that, therefore, hygienic
considerations are of at least secondary inn
portance in dress. She enforces her argument
against the Walker school of woman philoso-
pliers by observing that if everything were to
bemade subservient to hygiene we should have
a pretty state of things. Il suppose" says she,
''that Adam and Eve felt much more COM
Portable without any fg-leaves on" There
Is as much force and far more delicacy in her
declaration that "the one most potent reason
why women should not outrage propristy in
their efforts at reform is, that they brighten
away from great cause thousands of ladies
who would adhere to it if they were not re-
PEELED by the prospect of asssociating with that
which disgusts them"
Anna Dickinson has letter in the same
number in which she so hews and hacks with
the sword Of her logic an ill-mannsred critic
who made fun other in the Tribune, that the
unhappy man must be reduced to the last
stages of physical prostration.
