WHAT DISEASE HAS Done FOR
BUTLER.-The clutch of disease is as
suredly upon Butler. 1t is firmer than
lie will admit; sharper than he allows
any one but his physician to know.
The terrific revulsiOns which have
logged him all this season have allied
with natural ailings to pull him down.
The heart is staunch, but the body is
daily weakening. A frcttulness is
growing upon him, and what was once
sublime audacity in his dealing with
opposition, is degenerating into mere
noisy pevishness. The cher
~ in the Butler complexion has given
way to a putty tint. The erstwhile
full and solid cheeks have dropped,
and bag down, limp and loose, upon
tie sharpened jaws. The twisted eyes
have crawled backward, and there are
dark hollows around them which
shade their obliquity and evoke SYM
patty. Mast could not look into their
weary depths and not sigh at the
change. The Butler vest tumbles in
great creascs over shrunk paunch,
and the Butler coat is faccid upon his
back. Disease has drawn its ugly
finger all over him. lie needs rest
and religion; an easy jaunt in Europe,

New Testament. Hard work and years
of deviltry are claiming their due. II

The UTAH BILL.-There is now not
much doubt that the Senate will pass
the Poland, or House Utah, anti-polyg-
amy bill, and with very slight amend
mcnt. The House will probably accept
the amendment of Senator Frelinghuy-
sen, and the President, it is said, will
sign the bill. 1t is very legthy and rig
oro,,s, but its main features may be
briefly summed up. Mormons are not
allowed to act as jurors, and all the
ministerial officers Of courts, Of the
Mormon faith, are superseded, and
their duties assigned to federal ap-
pointecs-Marshals Of the Territories.
The judges, Of course, are federal ap-
pointees. LII short, the bill revolution
ICES the local government, and puts
the persons and property Of the ma
1orlty under the government OF the MI
nority. The remedy is like that of the
reconstruction law for the South; is
perhaps as much needed, and will
doubtless result in pretty much the
same way that the reconstruction laws
did in Georgia, the Carolinas and some
other Southern States.-Sacr0mento

HOW MULES CANE INTO USE.

Few of the farmers of this country
are aware what depth of gratitude
they owe George Washington for the
introduction Of mules into general use
for farm purposes.
Previous to 1888, there were very
few, and those Of such an inferior or
der as to prejudice farmers against
them as unfit to compete with horses
in work upon the road or farm. Con-
sequently there were no Jacks, and no
disposition to increase the stock; but
Washington became convinced that
the introduction Of mules generally
among southern planters would prove
to them a great blessing, as they are
less liable to disease, and longer lived,
and work upon shorter feed, and are
much less liable to be injured than
horses by careless servants.
AS soon as it become known abroad
that the illustrious Washington de-
sired to stock his Mount Vernon es-
tate with mules, the King Of Spain
sent him a jack and two jennets, from
the Royal stables, and Lafayette sent
another jack and two jcnnets from the
island Of Malta.
The first was a gray color, 1G hands
high, heavily made, and Of sluggish ma.
ture. He was named the Royal Gift.
The other was called the Knight of
Malta; he was about as high-lithe,
fiery, even to ferocity.
The two different sets of animals
gave him the most favorable oppor-
tunity of making improvements by
cross breeding, the result Of which
was the favorite jack, Compound, be-
cause he partook of the best point in
both the original. The General bred
his blooded mares to these jacks, even
taking those from his family coach for
that purpose. and produced such su
perb mules that the country was all
;.gog to breed some Of the sort, and
they soon became quite common. This
was the origin Of improved mules in
the United States. There are now
some OF the third and fourth genera
ton Of knight of Malta and Royal
Gift to he found in Virginia, and the
graf benefits arising from their intro
1uction to the country are to be seen
upon every cultivated acre in the
Southern States.

The fatal fondness of indulging in
a spirit Of rilicule, and the injurious
and irreparablc consequences which
sometimes attend the too severe reply,
can never be condemned with more
asperity than it deserves. Not to Of
fend is the first step towards pleasing.
To give pain is as much an offence
against humanity as against good
breeding, and surely it is as well to
abstain from an action because it is
sinful, as because it is impolite.=-BlHiv

will then fall under the control of local opin-
ion. A war of races can in no way be SO
surely averted as by giving the intelligent
classes of the South an opportunity
to exert their natural ascendancy over
the negro mind and subordinate it
to the ideas and public sentiment
of their section. A war of races would be,
sooner or later. inevitable. if distant outside
influence were kept perpetualiy acting on the
negro mind and moulding it into jealous hos
tillty to the white population.
If the democratic party comes into power it
will initiate the dexterous tactics of Disraeli
when he passed the new Reform bill There
is no democratic leader in the North who does
not know that the party would be ruined by
an attempt to upset negro suffrage; and there
is no democratic leader in the South who does
not feel that negro voting would be perfectly
safe if the politics Of the section were left to
the control of local leadership and intelligence.
The era of good feeling between the two races
will dawn with the removal of external OBJ
structions from the white demagogues who
will lead and bamboozle the negroes. They
will think it easier to accept negro suffrage
and control it than to resist the Northern
domination which would be reinstated by
futile attempts to subvert IT.

The Won Arnfm Case.

The controversy between Won Arnim and
Bismarck seems to be more and more con-
troversy for power. The process of German
unifcation, like all great national strifes, has
degenerated into q contest for political su-
premacy. 1t does not seem possible to sep
arate personal ambition from national pur-
poses. 1t is satire upon the great movement
in Germany that it should be delayed or put
back by the ambition Of two statesmen. 1t
brings us vividly back to Tudor times and the
absolute ways OF Henry Will to see states
man virtually regarding the prison door as
opening the way to imperial power. This is
the feeling which buoys up Count Arnim in
his misfortunes. His friends argue that his
arrest was despe rate expedient on the part
of Bismarck that the Chancellor dreaded
the influence of the Count and his
family, and SO felt it necessary to strike
him . crushing blow; that he failed,
as in the history of events extreme
and unjust measures are apt to fail that
instead Of destroying Arnim he gave him
new power in the awakened sympathy of
Europe and Germany, and that, failing in his
purpose of destruction, he virtually made the
deposed Minister his own successor. OF
course much of this will depend upon the
legal issues that are SO soon to be tried. But
no one can for moment imagine that Count
Arnim, either legally or morally, has come
within the jurisdiction of a criminal court.
No one, for instance, believes that he pur-
loined the papers or any paper from the
archives Of the Embassy, or that he did any
thing incompatible with his rank and his
office. The charge is, therefore, political
pretext, and will fail, as all pretexts of this
character have failed, when aimed against the
honor or liberty of an honored citizen like
Count Arnim. Bismarck is fighting for the
mastery, and the real question is whether the
great Chancellor can hold power or not
whether he will fall, like Wolsey, before q
power as absolute and capricious as that which
drove Wolsey to his fall.

SPONTANEOUS COMBUSTION ON Coal LADEN
SHIPS. An unusual fatality has attended ves-
sells carrying bituminous coal this season.
Besides the destruction of several British ships
through the spontaneous combustion of their
cargoes four tirst-class American ships from
English ports, ard all hailing from Boston,
have been destroyed from the same cause
The latest case is that Of the ship Centaur,
Captain Foster, bound from Liverpool to San
Francisco, which was burned off the Mar
quesas Islands, as detailed in our marine
columns to-day, and attended unfortunately
with the drowning of the captain and his
boats crew. The other American ships
were the Sierra Nevada, Pocahontas and
Mogul, all large vessels, each averaging over
1900 tons, one Of them being on her first
voyage, and the others comparatively new.
The frequency of these disasters suggests the
query whether there be sosuething exceptional
in the character of the English coal now be-
ing mined, rendering change in its transpor-
tation necessary. 1t, at least is deserving Of
investigation, and can hardly fail to attract
the attention Of those interested in bituminous
coal transportation.

What Henry Wilson ks.

Vice President Wilson is one of the very
few republican statesmen who saw the dangers
to the republican party of the canvass now
closed. He recommended to the President
and the Cabinet q course of conduct that
would have modified, if not altogether averted.
this disaster Going back as far as the degra-
dation Of Mr.. Sumner from the chairman
ship of the Committee of Foreign Relations
for presuming to have opinions on foreign
affairs contrary to those of Mr. Fish, Mr..
Wilson has always protested against the wan
ton acts Of the President and the party. He
saw the evil of st. Domingo, the incredible
folly of the back-pay and 'salary grab" busi-
ness, and when the President was sullenly an
nouncing that his "dignity' would not per-
NIT him to speak on the question of the
third term he said that unless the President
did speak his silence would be the
most serious burden of the canvass. As
for himself he spoke with no uncertain sound,
declaring that under no circumstances would
he support General Grant OF any other candi-
date for third term. This noble record on
the part of the Vice President, standing out
as it does in such marked contrast to the coy
ness of Conkling and the abasement of ma
jority of the party leaders, gives his views on
the recent canvass unusual Importance. They
will be found elsewhere as reported by our
correspondent In reading them we cannot
help feeling how much wiser Mr.. Wilson is
than his fellows and how much better he
would be as republican candidate for the
Presidency than nine tenths of the statesmen
who are named for the Office The republi-
cans would do well to listen to Vice President
Wilson. They may find his counsels neces-
sarY to victory in another CAMPAIGN
