Current Notes.

The attempt of Gov. Chamberlain 'to raise
the flower of reform in the hot-bed of South
Carolina corruption" Is the way the New
York Tribune phrases 1t.
The Albany Express has this to say about
presidential candidates: Looking the whole
field over, it seems as though Speaker Blaine
were as good a candidate as any one who has
been mentioned, and far more available
one than some others. With such a man as
our leader, we believe we could achieve sue
cess.'
The subdued air with which the Democrat
ic journals of Pennsylvania speak of the ae-
ton of the Republican Convention would
seem to Indicate that they had been suddenly
deprived Of very sizable. and esteemed bone.
IN. Y. Tribune.
We suppose they mean well, but II sounds
rather odd to hear men like the governor OF
Texas saying that they honor JEFF Davis as
"a representative of truth, chivalry and hero
ism, and steadfast devotion to principle" and
at the same time that they glory IN the flag
of the union.
The Cincinnati Convention of 1872 seems
to be undergoing brisk post-mortem ex-
animation. The latest man to try his hand
hand at it is the editor of the Cincinnati Com
mercial, who gives this result of his obserya-
tions: ''The Greeley and Brown combination
was discovered the night before the nomina-
tion occurred. There was q combination
that would have beaten it-Adams and Trum-
bull. Mr.. White was urged to go to the tele-
graph Office and stay until he obtained Trun-
BULBS consent to run as Vice-President with
Adams, and TO unite the Illinois delegation
for Adams on the next ballot, but he had a
lingering theory that the Adams and Greeley
contest would continue until a thru man
could be nominated. and that the third man
would be Trumbull. He discovered his mis-
take too late, and great opportun ity was
lost. The Cincinnati Convention might
have named the President; and it does not
seem impossible that the better elements rep
resented in that Convention may be so Or
ganized that in May next the things can bo
done that were left undone three years and
three weeks ago."

The Postmaster General has hit upon a very
effective way of bursting lottery bubbles be-
| fore any one loses money on them. He in
structs the postmaster in the city where the
| lottery is drawn not to pay the manager any
money order or deliver to him any registered
letter that may be sent him. As lotteries are
| supported by outside parties, this idea of the
Postmaster General winds them up.

EARLY Thursday morning Joseph Pierce
of Rochester, New York, awoke and saw in
the dim light fishing pole above his bed, and
fishing hook dangling provokingly near bis
nose. He jumped up, the pole was suddenly
withdrawn from the window, and he heard
the sound of footsteps without. Prompt in
yestigation left little doubt that burglars had
transformed themselves into fishers of men,
and were angling for Mr.. Pierce. Mr.. Pierce
considers the idea novel one, but is Inclined
to regard 1t as impractical.
