PAPERS, MEN AND THINGS.

The Gratiot Journal, one of the spicie,t
local papers in the state, says that s'news-
papers edited to please every body, gener-
ally die early, are incurred by few, and
missed by none"
When Philadelphia editor opens pa
per which doesn't refer to the Centennial
at least once on every page, he filings it
down and wants to know how such a
wretch is permitted to exist.
When boy falls and peels the skin off
his nose, the first thing he does is to get
up and yell. When girl tumbles and
hurts herself badly, the first thing she
does is to get up and look at her dress.
A Chicago religious paper thinks the
"pinback dress" promoter of licentious-
ness, but it describes the dress and it's eff
fects so minutely and in such terms that
its description is calculated to do more
harm than the dress.
The Mormons also are finding the wealth
er very hot; especially those who are wan
ted as witnesses in the Mountain Meadow
Massacre case. Since Lee began writing
his confession alarge number have started
on their summer tour.
Rev. DR.. Ives. of New York, has been
called upon to dedica.e and "beg for nine
hundred churches within about twenty
years, and however large the sum needed
to free the society from Indebtedness, has
never once left the pulpit until it was SUBJ
scribed.
The Toronto Leader few days since
changed its form from folio to quarto
sheet. The Globe, of that city. has follow
ed its example, and is now the largest dali
ly paper--not including supplements-puD-
lished in this country, if not the largest
in the world.
Plymouth Church has raised Mr.. Beech
er's salary to 100000 per annum, and he
is glad he did not die in those days when
he even wished that he were dead. If Ply
mouth intended by this step to restore Mr..
Beecher to his old time position before the
American public generally, we very much
fear the sum mentioned is to small by about
half. Americans would be slow to be
lieve any evil of man with an income Of
100000 per annum; but it is thought by
many that man with only 500, 900 may
still subject to temptation.
The Troy Times, discoursiug upon the
advance in the salary of the Rev. Henry
Ward Beecher, says it is the largest in
the Union, and that but one salary in
the world transcends it-that of the
Viceroy of India, which is 100000 or
$250,0O0 year, though it is possible the
salary of Lord Dufferin, as Governor
General of Canada, is 100000 or $780,
600 year. The ambassadors Of Great
Britain at Paris and Vienna receive but
$4,000 year. We are told that III. B.
Claf1in pays his s'credits man." formerly
president of the Bank of North America,
Mr.. Donaldson, 100000 a year on ac-
count of his unprecedented knowledge
of credits. The firm do a business Of
$4,000, 900 year, and this business is
entirely credit one; therefore skillful
knowledge of the buyers, their standing
and personal habits, is of more value
than ten per cent. upon this amount; in
other words it is profitable to Cladin to
pay less than two per cent. upon bis sales
to Mr.. Donaldson. There are many
statesmen in the leading houses in New
York with salaries reaching as high as
100000

ALTHOUGH the Alfonsists promised
some time since to be masters of Spain
very shortly, they have not so far made
good their promise. They gain all the
battles nearly, on the telegraph wires
and in the papers, but in spite of these
dazzling victories the Carlists are still in
Spain, alert, strong, active and very ugly.
The legality of taxing the scrip divi-
dend of the New York Central Railroad,
made by Vanderbuilt during the war, is
affirmed by the U. S. Supreme Court.
After fighting this tax for several years
he at last paid 100000 under protest,
and now the government will hold it.
1t was trick of this great railroad king
to distribute profits without submitting
to the claims of the nation for the proper
tax, and he has found some officers and
tribunals that he could not buy up.
s DUNCAN, SHERMAN & Co., the great
New York banking house, failed on the
9th ult. Its liabilities amount to five
or six millions of dollars. The firms
credit, even up to the hour of suspen-
sion, stood first-class. The failure will
have tendency to lessen the confidence
of the public in houses presumably
strong. Other failures are likely to follow
of houses which have had financial deal
ings with thesuspended firm. The failure
sent gold up from 1121a to 116.
THE Philadelphia Exposition buildings
and grounds will cost $S,5O0,OOO. Penn
sylvania and Philadelphia have con-
tributed s2,5O0,O0O, and gifts, and profits
on medals, etc., will yield $500, 900 more.
The remainder is to be obtained from
100000 visitors at fifty cents apiece and
the sale Of materials at the close. In or
der to realize this calculation it will be
necessary for one-half of the adult popu-
lation of the United States to visit the
Exposition at least once. But if 1,000,-
600 of people will go there ten times it
will relieve 100000 of that response
bility.
1T is likely that the express compa-
MES job which Mr.. Hamlin, of Maine,
struggled through the Senate at the
close of the last session of Congress,
and which was unwittingly agreed to by
the House will be upset. A New York
bookseller, Mr.. Ivan G. Mitchell, has
stepped forward like another Hampden
to try the constitutionality of a tax law,
and the whole country will wish him
success, with the single exception of the
express companies. The point he makes
is that the Senate can constitutionally
originate no revenue bill, and that the
civil appropriation bill as it went from
the house to the Senate was in no sense
a revenue bill, and therefore the intro
duction there of an amendment impos-
ing an increased tax was originating a
revenue measure in the Senate.

STATE TREASURES MCCREERY has
paid $32, 100 of the interest due on the
state debt, July 1st, which is the whole
amount except 800. An event of this kind
has never happened before since the
bonds were issued, for there has always
been more or less delay in holders pre-
scnting their coupons.

THE ADVERTISERS RRAsoNs FOR DIvI-
SION

Following the precept of O'Connell and Garr- |
son. the Advertiser of Saturday cries Agitate
Agitate Agitate :" on the county division ques-
ton, its article having been written, as we
suppose, before the vote was taken at Dover. 1t
recites the following concise propositions as the
basis on which it proposes Division and it insists
that those opposed thereto have not duly
answered them. Although the main question
has been disposed Of these propositions still
contain something of interest, and we propose
to give them word of attention. The Advertiser
says
l. 1t has been shown by figures that we are
unjustly taxed for the beueh5 of other parts Of
the county.
g. That the only present practical way to
escape from the injustice OF UNEQUAL represent
tation Is by division of the county.
8. That a division of the county would lessen
taxation, and at the same time vastly improve
the city in every one of its features.
4. That the diversity of interests between the
southern hundreds and this vicinage, lis SO marked
that they cannot be unified, and per consequence
separation is the only remedy.
g. That the Levy Court is an institution I'M
suited to our city organization, and hence I'M
meaning. That any increase of representation
i'll the House would give Us no relief, 80 long as
the Levy Court absolutely control the fund
arising from taxation.
Upon which we comments
/. This, if true can be remedied by the Leg
isature, and neither demands division of the
county, nor needs to await the slow process Of
amending the Constitution.
2. This is pure assumption, unsustained by
facts the Legislature has, (since the Adrer-
t,ser wrote this propostion,) indicated that Di-
vision was not present road of escape from
unequal representation, at all. And even if this
Legislature had now proposed Division, it Is u
substantial impossibilty that the next one would
have ratified it, Division not way open.
3. This we deny, point blank. IL is more
costly, the plainest man knows, to maintain two
families than one. To make two. counties is to
double the outlet of expense, while the people
pockets are neither made deeper more uu
merous.
4. This, also. is pure assumption. The peo
pie of the lower Hundreds differ Ill no import
ant particular from tile people of this city, ant
their interests are substantially the same.
8. This is answered as the fret proposition
was. The glazing injustice of the present or
ganization of the Levy Court of this county can
at any time, be remedied by the Legislature, ant
does not need ANY amend neut of the Constitu
ton.
These are brief but fair and sufficient, all
swers to the Adgertt'er's five reasons for dlvi
sion. We especially commend.to that journa
the first and fifth points. II you see the Lev
Court 80 bad, why don't your Legislature rene
DIV the wrong?

The Germ Theory Oh Di.ease,

distinguished leader of.medical thought in
New York, in public address recently Observed
if there was lone direction in which progress is
now 80 marked as to constitute dominant fea-
ture of the present state Of medicine, and to en-
brace new medical idea, it is tile origin and
propagation OF disease by Independent organic
has been so -promsingy pushed, aud none has
offered 80 many lines of solution for the mystic
rious epdemics which from time ilnmemorial
have afflicted man and beast.
The atmosphere is loaded with matter which,
however invisible to the naked eye, needs only
to be sifted in strong beam OF artificial light to
reveal countless particles, each of which may
afford indus for poisonous infusoria. With
greater perfection in optical apparatus this fact
will doubtless yet be made more ..startlingly APP
parent. But, whatever science may unmask how
alarming it may be, the progress of all rem
edial and curative processes can only be adj
Yanced by such unstinted analysis.

The Had school EsiII.

The bill to divide the school revenues of this
city, according to the complexion of the tax
payers, is still hanging i'll tue Senate, at Dover,
having passed the House. 1t is u bad BILL and
only calculated t. do injury to the public school
system. We trust the Senate will defeat it. To
pass it would be cruel and unnecessary blow
not only at the education OF the coored children
Of Wilmington, but at the integrity of the pub
lie school revenues. TO begin to divide them is
a most dangerous precedent. Division being
once begun, where will it stop?

The "storm areas" gather i'll the West and
move Eastwardly upon us. So also do the
grasshoppers, and the potato beetles (by the
way, if any of those innocent creatures roasted
very near the surface, last winter, they surely
felt chilly) and so did the Crusade movement
and the Granger organization. And now new
wave, gathered in the great lap of the Western
world, is rolling upon us--the spelling match.
Illinois, Indiana and Ohio were convulsed by it,
two months ago, aud the newspapers were pes
tered to death with reports OF the photographic
struggles while as the fashion gradually rolled

The most interesting affairs of this week, at
Dover, will probably be the struggle for life of
the Aid bill in the Senate, and the contest over
the liquor question in both Houses. The latter
now stands in aninterestng position. The liquor
interest is strongest in this county, and weakest
in Sussex, the New Castle delegation being
mostly favorable to it, while those from the
lower county are generally strong temperance
men. The Democratic managers from this end
of the State are insisting that the present license
law must be repealed, or the party interests will
suffer, while those from Sussex declare that
repeal will do them grieyous damage there. The
end Of the week will probably bring things to a
fOcus.
