QUEEN Victoria asks e16OOO year for her
Son Arthur. This proposition is strongly OPP
posed by the Commons, and the workingmen
say it is well enough to support the Queen
but the young ones have no right to
be thrown upon the people to be maintained
IN luxurious idleness. This allowance to the
Frlnce would easily maintain 300 men in the
cities and double that number in the country.
lhls is one of the questions that the British
masses are considering; and from it they will
conclude that monarchy, even tolerabe as
that OF England has been under the Queen, i.
rather worthless exper diture of money. t.

TIE argus publishes long recital OF the
circumstances attending the discovery of jeff
Davis's criminal intimacy with a woman in a
railroad sleeping car. According to this ac-
count the conductor of the train insists on the
correctness of his first statements, and cites
the testimony of other witnesses to the same
occurrences. This jeff. Davis is the same
man whom the Argus's Democratic friends at
the South still receive with enthusiastic ova-
tons wherever he goes, and treat with honors
recorded to no other public man.

We give the Democracy joy OF all the capt.

the decline of the shipping interest MI
Kimbal and Mr.. Blanchard of Yarmouth
well as the Argus now affect TO speah
marked disfavor of the plan presented :!
special Congressional Committee ior ie'i,ne
American Commerce. These authoii''e' IVA
get,
First that it is the only definite scheme,
presenting specific remedy, ever submitted.
,horoh there has been a vast deal of misty
ceneralizing on the subject, and an Infinite
amount of exclamation about the ''pity OF it
and the need of doing something"
Second, That the special Committee
summoned before them at Philadelphia, New
York and Portland the leading shpbuilders
and shipowners of the country, and that the
plan submitted by Mr.. Lynch embraced sub
stantially their recommendations.
Third, That the Maine Shipowners and
Shipbuilders Association, which ought to be
credited with an intelligent apprehension OF
the subject has put on record its earnest APP
proval OF the measures submitted 10 the
House and that its authorized agents went to
Washington to give such assistance as they
were able. n.
Fourth, That the Argus itself expressed
itself at the time as enthusiastically in favor
of the provisions OF the bill which it now
probably with as little intelligent understand
ing of the matter as inspired its commenda
ton, says embraces only quack remedies.
No party can build itself up on mere mega
tions. The Democracy propose nothing
they do nothing. They perform without in
telligence even their chosen functure of crit
cism. They complain OF taXation-and theil
Congressman vote against bills Tor reducing il
eighty millions. They complain of the pro
tective features of the tariff, -and vote in IA
vor of removing dtuies from tea and coffee
thus making it impossible 10 remove protec-
tive duties without a dangerous sacrifice of
revenue. They complain of the immense bur
den of the interest of the public debt-and
vote against funding bills framed for the pur
pose of reducing that burden more than TWEEN
ty millions of dollars annually. They whine
about the shipping interest in a general way
bntwhen definite plan is presented by thos,
who are sincerely interested in the revival O
commerce they talk of quackery.

AT the pathological CONVEX ton he'll at New
Haven last week, Charles Aslor Bristed read
a paper on the pronunciation of mot ern Ian
guage, in which he contended that the lie in
Thiers should be pronounced like al in chair.
But this point was strenuously controverted
by German and French students present, who
gave Thiers's own rendering, which gives the
name TEAR, as nearly as it is possible to rep-
resent 1t. The latter pronunciation may be
regarded, therefore, as authoritativeIy settled.

Origin Of the aWhite Trash.,

A negro preacher 5y the name of
Demsey Morgan, living this year
near General W. W. Aliens planta-
ton, in this county, delivered a fune-
ral discourse over the dead body Of
old Uncle Burton, about three weeks
ago, in which he gave an account Of
Che Genesis of (white) species which
throws Darwin, and all of his vain
philosophy of morlecular, genular and
atomic creation completely in the
shade. He said:
Ny bredderin, when Adam and
Ebs was fust made they was bofe
niggers. But de good Lord put dem
in de garden where he mad his sum

and tole EN-, Adam, you ard Ebe

apples bel dun save dem for my

Den de Lord he went off bout his
business lemonading up and down
the yeth seeking up whom he might
save up. But he no sooner turn his
back dan, ,jes like two fool niggers,
Adam and Ebe steal all de Fowler
apples. Ebe taste de fust one, smack
her luby thick lips, and 'quired of
Adam, "How is dat for high"
Adam said it was all 0. T., and den
dey went for dem Fowler apples like
