The Next President.

tfFom the Fltthbufg Telegraph
The entertainment given 70 Speaker Blaine
In Philadelphia on Tuesday, by Gen. Bingham,
is said TO be fraught with political significance,
although among the guests present on the &C.
casion we observe the names of distinguished
Democrats. It Is stated that Senator Came
ron, with whom General Bingham Is related
Is "setting up the pins" in Pennsylvania, so as
to secure the State delegation in the next Ma
tional Republican Convention for Mr.. Blaine
for President. Whether such a scheme will be
successful we are inclined to doubt, for the
reason that Mr.. Blaine is not just now the
choice of the people of this State to such an
extent as to create any enthusiasm over the
mere mention Of his name. Be that as 1t may,
there's one great objection urged to Mr.. Blaine's
candidacy by many disiDterested Republicans
and that is his Identification with the political
wire pullers of the country. For the next Pres
idency the people want a nominee who Is not
only a man OF well-defned principle, but one
who will give heed rather to the demands and
welfare of the people than the behests of
politicians. Above all, they want a man who
will do his duty independent Of partisan claims
or clamor.
Among the men whose names we have seen
mentioned in connection witch the Presidency,
that of Gen. Benjamin II. Bristow stands out
among the most available. A native Ken
tuckiRn, and Old Line Wing, he became Re-
publican when it was something to be such in
Kentucky. At the outset of the rebellion he
raised a regiment of loyal Kentuckians, and
withsthe Joined the Union forces to preserve
the Government. H. was shot through the
body at Shiloh, and laid upon the battlefield
two days before he was discovered and his life
saved. He was afterwards promoted to brlga-
der general, and remained in the service,
doing gallant duty, to the close of the war
He entered the civil service in the Department
of Justice at Washington, and is now Secretary
of the Treasury, an Office which he is filling
with great credit to the administration as well
as 10 himself. He is q statesman of most libe-
raj views and enjoys the confidence of the en-
tire country. If he was TO become the noml-
nee Of the Republican party, he would rally
around his standard the patriotic people Of al
the States

WHITELAw REID has been indicted by
the grand jury of this District for criminal
libel against ex-Gov. Shepherd. Now we
suppose WhItelaw will be happy, This is
where he has always been trying to get-into
the courts. Every time he has lied about
anybody and been reproached for it he has
turned up his nose to a new angle and
sneeringly replied, Take us into the
courts. EK-Gov. Shepherd is very &C
commodating man, and he has complied
with Whitelaw's request in a very salts
factory manner. We shall now know all
about District corruption from the mouth
of Whitelaw himself That little arranpe-
ment for surrounding his immaculate per
son with the protection of the House Of
Representatives didn't work; so we will
not be deprived Of the privilege of hearing
all he knows. We can tell Whitelaw one
little fact which freshly illustrates the in
gratitude of men. There is quite a little
lot of Republican politicians of rather a
mean sort, who have been coddling the
Tribune and lis editor for its fair phrases,
who are now secretly enjoying the pros
pect and privately urging Gov. Shepherd
to tighten his grip. ...

THE number Of children doomed to grow
TO manhood and womRnhood without the
advantages OF ordinary school education In
New York and New Jersey, where the
compulsory system of education is being
tried, is shown by the fact that numbers Of
them are being turned away from the
schools because the buildings are not large
enough to accommodate them. Compul-
sorry education Of this kind is certainly
little better than farce.

A Dangerous Experiment.

Zebulon and Horace were Elijah Deans
two sons. Both were tall, sturdy and in
dustrious farm-boys, objects OF fathers
pardonable pride and mothers abiding
love.
Zebulon was solemn, businesslike in
dividual, straightforward, impulsive and
exceedingly matter. of.fact in all his trans
actions, while Horace was quite his OPP
posite in disposition and character, being
mirthful, crafty, inventive and mis-
chievous, having an innate fondness TOR
practical jokes.
One summer evening the two boys
came home from the meadow, where
they had remained later than usual at
work, getting the hay in good shape for
storm which seemed impending.
After supper they went out to the barn
yard to attend to the milking. The cows
had come home from the pasture OF their
own accord, with one exception. The
brindle heifer was missing.
"Zebulon," said Horace, :" II you'll
just go and hunt her up I'll tend to the
milkin'.n
Agreed"
Away started Zebulon, loudly calling:
Co boss! CO. bossr' TO which echo in
distinctly answered "Co' bossw
Scarcely was Zebulon fairly out Of
hearing before the brindle heifer came
leisurely trotting into the yard. Zebulon
had not seen her.
Horace finished milking, but Zebulon
did not return. He carried the foaming
pals into the house and then returned to
the barn-yard gate to listen. In the dark
distance he could hear Zebulon family
calling: SEQ bossl Co bossw
With spirit of mischief that was quite
natural to him he started out into the
pasture. He trotted along the cowpath
for considerable distance until he came
to a little thicket through which it ran
Here he crept into the bushes and awaited
the approach of his brother Zebulon.
Meanwhile Zebulon, failing to find the
missing brindle heifer, turned his face
homeward. The night was dark and
cloudy.

A Swiss WasherwOman.

To A smoke-stained Londoner the ex-
ouisite purity of the homespun Swiss
linen is a constant wonder and reproach.
And yet scarcely wonder If he chance
to sit by the lakeside, say at Brienz, on a
sunny morning, and watch the proceed
ings of the little Swiss maiden in straw
hat and black velvet bodice with the sill
yer chains, who is plying her occupation
of laundress. She has padded her boat
far out into the lake, and is letting 1t
drift with the current. In the boat be-
side her is pile Of freshly-washed linen,
glistening like snow in the sunlight.
But it's whiteness does not content her.
AS the boat moves lazily along, each sep
arate piece Of linen is thrown Into the
lake, and trailed slowly through the blue
water, blue as ever painted. Still she is
not quite satisfied. She takes, perhaps,
three or four handkerchifs in her hand at
time and literally throws them over
board, In such manner that the specta-
tor on the bank cannot but breathe a fer
vent hope that they may not be his own
property. But before he has time to
frame his wishes into words she has
caught them again with dexterous sort
of legerdcmain, and the process Is re.
peated again and again. And all the
while the black-velvet bodiced maiden,
with the glittering silver chains and pins,
snowy sleeves and round white arms, II
She be true Brienz maiden, is singing
like very nightingale.-Saturddy Jour
