The Coming Rine Match.

Some idea Of the nature Of the contest that
viii take place on Friday next at Dollymount
NAV be formed from the fact that such skilled
marksmen as the Irish Henry Fulton and Mr..
Rigby have failed to secure places on the
team that is to uphold the honor of Ireland
in the international contest 1t is evident
that the Irish marksmen are sternly bent on
regaining the laurels lost in last years con-
test at Creedmoor Nothing is being allowed
TO stand in the way of the best men coming
to the front Unlike our Creedmoor marks
men, the Irish made the contest for places on
their team strictly national affair, and by
inviting free competition have secured the
very best men available for the work to be
done Should the men composing their
team shoot in tho match with anything like
the accuracy they have displayed in the
course Of the competition it will require
great efforts and very good luck to defeat
them. We do not fear but that our men will
do credit to their country; but the men they
will have to meet at Dollymount seem to be
very much more formidable than those who
took part in the international contest ct
Creedmoor last year. Three of the highest
scores on record have been made by gentle
men seeking place on the Irish team Two
hundred and eighteen out Of q possible two
hundred and twenty-five is something un-
parallelod in the history Of rife shooting,
and this Is the score by which Mr. Johnson
won his place on the Irish team. This score
is equal to for.y-three and a half bulls eyes
out of possible forty-fve, and could scarcely
be surpassed il the gun were fred from a
fixed rest. The two next highest scores are
two hundred and eight and two hundred and
three. The former score made by Mr..
McKenna is, as nearly as possible, equal to
the splendid score made by Major Fulton on
the old targets during the international match
at Creedmoor SO wonderful was this score
that rihemen were inclined to believe that it
would not be equalled for many years, if
ever. Experience has, however, shown this
to be an error, and it may be that the nfemen
OF the future are destined to achieve such
skill that nothing less than succession Of
bulls eyes viii be looked upon as FIRST class
Workmanship. One thing in relation 10 the
coming struggle at Dollymount is certain-our
riAemen will have opponents worthy Of them,
and at whose hands even defeat would not be
wy;ehopt honor

Docs AND Hor WEATHER yet another
season the great canine and canicular
problems are before the public. Bergh
will begin to rage and the dog star viii
be mentioned; muzzles will come into the
foreground learned veterinarians will be
brought forward to prove that hydrophobia is
a delusion, and that it would be better for
society IL there were more Of it; and, finally,
the Aldermen will ordain that all loose dogs
shall be impounded and otherwise legally
dealt with, and in turn will be denounced for
ignorance and barbarity. We regard 1t as .
very satisfactory ignorance, however which
in the doubt and apprehension that naturally
surround the disease OF hydrophobia in dogs
and men results in giving US the certainty of
not encountering, in every few miles Of our
streets, from ten TO fifty wretched and own
erless ours. II is clear enough legally, we
suppose that the owner Of dog which bites
q person Is responsible In damages but who
is responsible where the owner is not found2
Presumably 1t must be the city which by its
negligence permits these ours to roam the
streets. And the only way the city has to
protect itself Is TO clear the streets Of these
useless and mischievous creatures.

CONFINEMENT DAr Is commemorated in
cur columns this morning in many narratives
Of varied interest These Commencement
days should be festivals In our modern life
They celebrate the new generation going ont
TO do battle in the great strife that lies before
them. II is the new generation sreading in
the footsteps Of the one who goes before
even Of our own. And as We read these
speeches and take part in these ceremonies
and hear the voices Of these light, CHEEKY
multitudes, eagerly hurrying into the combat,
We feel a. though they were the echoes Of tho
future; the steady, firm tread Of the men who
are to do our work when We are gone-to do
II well or III as God may give them strength.
May Gods blessing rest with them, and may
Oil their years be as sunny as these Commence
ment days, with their endeavors, their

FRANCE AND THE CENTENNIAL an
nouncement that the RtpIbIiQe Franeaise,
PARIS newspaper, the organ Of Gambetta, has
given one thousand francs for the purpose
Of sending delegates 70 the Philadelphia Gen.
tennid Exhibition is extremely gratifying,
not SC much iron the amount contributed,
but as an evidence Of good feeling toward the
Republic by the republican party in Paris.
The value of the Centennial Exhibition will
be in knitting these ties Of personal friendship
and sympathy. AS the widows mite in the
Golfers was Of more value than the rich mans
gift, so . single contribution like this, repre-
senting personal business interests, is bet
ter illustration Of the success Of the Gen.
tenniaI than if the government Of France had
appropriated a million OF francs.

RELIGIOUS CoyrRovERs1Es.-We are afraid
OF this despatch from Berlin about riots caused
by the ultramontanists in the town Of Rhein,
East Prussia. The Extreme Church influence
in Germany has never been strong enough to
lead 70 open outbreaks. II there are any diff
6culties they arise from the efforts Of the Prus-
sian government 70 enforce the unpopular
religious laws The worst comment that can
be made upon the modern German Empire is
that il is necessary to strengthen i BY religious
oppression. The world will really believe in
. united Germany when they can see Ger
many strong enough to tolerate under its dag
al religions.

CENTENNIAL HINTS.

East Tennessee is pushing the Cen
tennial movement with more vigor than
the other grand divisions Of the State.
If she does not make handsome show
ing Of her vast resources at Philadel-
phia, next year, it will not be for want
of effort on her part.
We see it stated by the way, in the
Philadelphia papers, tibet in order to
insure reception, the mineral and man
ufactured products to be exhibited at
the Centennial should be delivered in
that city by the LIST Of ext,January, and
that SO far as possible applications for
space should be made within the next
thirty days. Our people should under
stand that the work is a mammoth IN
dertaking; and if the mistakes Of
previous worlds fairs are 70 be avoided,
the labor of receiving and classifying
articles must be commenced several
months before the opening day.
1t should also be borne in mind that
if any exhibition of Tennessee grain, or
Of cereals and grasses in the stalk is to
be made, it must be from the crops
now growing. It will be altogether
too late to make selections from next
years crop.

THEIR OCCTPATIoN GONE.

We suggest that the Tennessee State
Board Of Emigration lcolored) extend
their field Of operations, as there's. an
pie scope at Washington for their
philanthropic impulses. tits sufficient
ly evident that The Administration
people have No further use for the col
ored men IN the District, and are pro.
ceeding to crowd them all off. The
streets are nov fully improved, 50 that
their labor is not needed, and local suf-
frage being taken away, their votes are,
as a consequence, of no avail. The
stealing of their hard earned savings
in the Freedmen's Bank has been well
supplemented by the late movement TO
dispossess the colOred people of the
control of the Howard University,
founded by the government for their
benefit alone. Langston's expulsion
was the last straw that broke the back
Of their patience. They are now so
thoroughly angry, and 50 united IN their
upTOar, that it is not probable any
colored people Will attend the Univers-
ity until Langston IS restored. This,
however, will be as the orthodox white
members Of the Board of Trustees anx-
iously desire. They will then control
the University, and let the colored man
and brother 60 to the mischief, So far
as they are concerned. It is a warm
fight, but the negroes are bound to
lose. They are Of no further use az
g vernment headquarters except as ser
wants. On that line they must fight it
ont for the future, or-go West. Their
day as a distinctive political element
has gone forever
A day or two ago We mentioned, as a
straw Of some significance, the fact that
a colored society of Memphis, known as
the "Pole-Bearers," had invited Gen
Forrest and other prominent Demo-
Gratis Of that city to attend their cele-
bration on the Fourth Of July. OF all
the white leaders in the South, during
or since the war, none has been repre-
scented as a more dangerous enemy to
the colored race than the famous Con-
federate sabrcur. Remember Fort
Pillow" was long the favOrite rallying

POSTMASTER GENERAL JEWELL
has developed an !aea that is likely to
prove Of inestimaJ,e value to other
public func ionaries. No sooner had
be returned to Washington from the
West, than he wasbeset by correspond
ents who yearned to interview him.
He had a great deal Of business on
hand, and the press sang were too
heavy for him in point Ct numbers; so
he had his secretary prepare an inter
view with him, in which be put all the
points he cared to communicate. At
ter this had been carefully revised, two
copies were made for the Associated
and American Press agents, respective.
ly. In this way, everybody got a
whack at the thing, and there was no
occasion for complaint from jealous
journalists.

OUR DEMOCRATIC DILEMMA.
Two Platforms that CaU't be DOse-
tailed.
NeT York Acrald.


NeT York Herald.
'Ghe Ohio Democratic platform comes
out for initiation. He who runs may
read that. The New York Democrats
are for hard money. He who stops his
ears cannot avoid hearing the roar of
that fact. The plain inference Is that
the Democrats of the Ohio Valley and
of the Hudson agree IN the same way
the Beecher-Tilton jury have been do
ing for some days past. Instead of
admitting that fact, the Democratic
press throughout tue country and the
cities is trying to square inflated Bill
Allen with contracted Sam Tilden, and
to show that i-n-f-l.a t-i-O,n spells
h-a r d money.
The records" Of the Ohio Democrats
are dug up to show that aforetime they
were for hard money; therefore, they
must be really for 1t now on the sly,
and the platform Of imitation is but a
device for catching votes. This at.
tempt to represent PenGletOn, Allen,
Ranney, Morgan and Thurman as trim
mers do not compliment them. As
1t comes from their friends, however.
we do not see that they can object.
They have to choose between being
idiots or hypocrites while IN the hands
Of their friends" The choice Is a ne
cessity Of politics which Is getting to
be as vague and imperious as military
necessity IN its way.
1t is evident the Democrats have not
| learned the art of assurance So well as
their opponents. hey should hire
some liberal ally to tell them how Pig
Iron Kelley and the free trade EoeaiHg
Post used to support the same ticket
and platform without laughing IN one
another's faces, OF how Horace Greeley
and Thurlow Weed used To lit, either.
The attempt to make hard money a na-
tional CRY fails. The Democrats do not
know how not to explain it, but TO eX-
plain it away. Their younger and
weakening opponent did better IN It's
days of strength than this lusy and re-
| Yiving ancient.
Toomuch stress is laid on platforms al
! together, anyway. The country was best
governed when there were no platforms.
There were giants in those days. New
| York led OF In the habit Of platform
making. 1t became the rage aud then
the usage. 1t would better be done
away with. Allen @. Thurman Is d
/ platform in himself; 50 Is S. J. Tilden;
| so is Roscoe ConkiDg OF o. 2. Morton.
Men know what they believe and what
they are. A great party led by great
man is the,best platform. Such posi-
ton of things would make the present
contradiction impossible.

cry Of political adventurers when d

promptly recognize the tender Of re-
stored good feeling, by joining in the
following response:

Bearers: Your courteous invitation in
Sundays Appeal to the undersigned to

industry and reciprocal blessings" etc.
Feeling that the prosperity and happl-
ness Of both the white and colored races
in the Southern States, in great degree,
depends upon kindly relations and
good understanding and mutual friend
ly Offices. we viii probably all accept
your invitation to be present, and some
one of our number will address you
upon matters affecting your interest

as possible, avoid all discussions of ex-
isting political questions or issues.

A PIG-HEADED JgKY'S VERDICT

New AoEk limos

Our readers will remember the libel
case IN which the London AtkeEGYR
was condemned by Sc0th jury to pay

facts about a firm Of map publishers
The Atbenaum was disposed 10 submit

much pressed TO appeal, 1t atlst con
scented, and the result ought to induce
other newspapers to follow the sane
course whenever Pig-headed jmies in
hict heavy fires upon them for telling
the truth. The appeal was taken to
the Court Of Sessions at Ediuburga,
and the Judge expressed a decided
opinion that the amount Of damages
was utterly unjustifed by the eyi-
dence." The other side agreed TO
leave the matter to the court and Ulu-
mately the damages we're assessed AT

DOES GIANT FARMING PAY?

Three years ago a company Of En-
glish capitalists offered Sl,500,000 for
the Sullivan farm, in Ford county, Ill.
The same property has since passed
into the possession Of the Hon. Hiram
Sibley, Of Rochester. \. Y, who values
his interest at 100000. Part Of the
decline in value Of the Sullivan farm
may be attributed to the general bust
ness depression. but a larger share must
be ascrIbed to the poor success Of giant
farming. .Nr Sibley, the new pr0pri-
etor. Is lifted by nature and education
to carry on a work Of this description,
but he is one man picked out of 10000
Farming on a large scale depends for
success on the elements that are essen
tial 10 the safe and prosperous conduct
Of a large business, and also requires
familiarity with details Of farm work.
Since the Sullivan farm, embracing
10000 acres, and the Cayuga county,
n. Y, farm of 1000 acres, are now I'M
der one management, We may have an
opportunity to determine what brains
can accomplish in the highest depart
ments Of agriculture.
