Betting ON the Rainfall in I.a,a,

Ghe Calcutta merchants have adopted
plan for Willing away idle hours which
might serve to enliven business ON our
own Exchange when the money market is
flat" According to the Pioneer betting
on drops Of rain is just now the fashion
in Calcutta, where even respectable native
merchants bet very large sums about the
rainfall. When the weather becomes
cloudy wagers are laid as to the time
within which the downfall may be ex-
pected. The wager being laid; the crowd
wait patiently to see the water run out
Of the spouts, for drizzle is not recog-
nized, and unless the water drips from
the spOuts the party who bets that it will
not rain has not lost. Sometimes the ut
most confusion prevails; it rains for few
minutes and the crowd look anxiously at
the spOuts: if the water does not drip the
yell is terrific; losers attribute it to foul
play, and boys are Immediately sent up to
the top of the house to see whether the
spout has been tampered with. Whgers
Of this nature would probably here take
the form of betting upon sunshine rather
han rain.

Perfect sleep is the passion, as a rule of
children only. The healthy child, worn out
with its day OF active life, sinks to rest,
sleeps its ten or twelve hours, and wakes,
believing, feeling that it has merely closed
it's eyes and opened them again; its sleep is
it's twinkle of oblivion. The sleep in this
death, and at the same time presents q
natural paradox, for it is evidence of strong

sUDsIDIzED PRESS.

The suspension of the Charleston 70
C.) Republican moves the New YORK
Times to remark:
The fact appears TO be that there Is
not YET Republican party IN the South
ern States capable of supporting an ~ m
dependent Republican newspaper. The
result is that nearly, if not all, Southern
Republican journals are fed from the
State treasures, and do not thrive NOR
ally on that diet This is one OF the
evils that time alone will cure.
This moves the Baltimore Sun to say
"This comment implicitly approves the
practice Of the Southern State treasures
in using the taxpayers money to pub
lish partisan newspapers. Thisidentica
thing is one Of the strong counts in the
Times fierce Indictment of the Tam
many government Of New York. The
Times is right in denouncing this ms
conduct Of Tammany. but oil its denun
citation applies. according to its own
statement Of the case, to the hadica

DISCRIMINATING.

The Richmond Dispatch calls atten'
ton TO the fact that while Paymaster
Hodge is summarily placed in close
confinement and is to be tried by court
martial, the post-oflice thief in New
York has not been even arrested. The
appropriation OF the public money by
a custodian of that money to his own
nses is a crime which the restoration OF
the money does not wipe out The two
amounts stolen by the two embezziers
are widely different, but the crime IS the
same. But upon the course pursued by
the Governmental these cases it appears
that the man who can pay is set at llber-
ty and he who cannot must lie in prison
and be tried with the strictest rigor.
The amount of money man eau raise,
therefore, constitutes the measure OF his
olIense. If the sum in his reach be
large enough, he goes scott-free and Is
not criminal at all; but if he has no
money and can get none, why, he must
submit to all the penalties provided by
law for his oiiense.
