Englishm' are growing tired of salt meat
as staple of their diet, but the scarcity of
fresh beef makes it luxury beyond the reach
Of the poor aud lower middle classes. The
unnecessary severity Of the laws against the
impf r alton Of diseased cattle is largely re-
spousible for this. If one sick animal is
found in ship-load, the whole herd is con-
demned and killed. On two successive
August days, two Rotterdam ships brought
$3.50 sheep to London There Was one
slightly sick animal on each ship, and
the whole $3.50 were consequently con-
demned, killed, and kept ont OF the market
This looks like class-legislation in behalf Of
English landowners. It amounts to levying
protective duty fer the benefit Of cattle
breeders. The importers have formed an
association to secure the amendment Of the
obnoxious laws and to promote the importa-
ton of fresh beef on the hoof from the
United States.

Central America literally fighting for his
existence, He had traversed the mines OF
California and Nevada, where weakness and
cowardice invited murder. But, down IN his
heart, planted there perhaps BY mothers
lore, lived the lesson that stealing was
crime Of which every man ought to be
ashamed, and one demanding the exclusion
Of the guilty from the countenance and re-
spect of all people whose respect is worth
having. Hewas aware that all bis predeces-
sors lived and Aourished, and were magnates
in society, pillars in the Church, and rulers
in Government; still he had not the courage
to initiate their boldness, nor the courage to
brazen out, as they do, the mendaclty OF
their acts; and SO, to avoid the shame that
should attend such men as he, he sought
death and eternity as preferable to worldly
prosperity, execrated and despised even by

Some foolish and presumably cowardly
students Of the Scientific College Of Yale Uni
versity hazed Freshman the other day, and
by doing so kicked up an international
quarrel For the Freshman was a young
Chinaman Of high rank, and part Of the
hazing consisted in cutting off his cue. he
has, therefore, lost casta and has been de-
priyed of his allowance by the Chinese Edu-
cational Commission in this country. The
Chinese Minister at Washington has investi-
gated the matter and sent home d report to
his Government The latter may ask satis-
faction for the insult. Slighter matters have
served for pretexts in such cases.. W1IHE1Ns
turning his back on BESEDETT1 Was an insult
that fades into insigni6cance besides the cut
ting of of CHAN LA1suN's cue. The actors
were more prominent, but the slight was Of

plethat has proved such snccessin our poll
tics prevail in our arts. We believe that the re-
suit would be to stimulate the dramatic
development Of the whole country. Art cen
tralization is as bad in its way as political
centralization. For reasons such as these we
advanced the opinion which the Times gently
satirizes when it says: The corrective which
Chicago proposes for itself is certainly rad
ical, as well as peculiar. The managers OF
two Chicago theatres are to produce plays
written by local authors. II these succeed,
not only will the slavish dependence upon
the East be broken down. according to TEE
TRIBUNE, but the example Of Chicago will be
generally initiated, *and better day will
dawn for the American dramatist and the
American STAGE"

The ambiguous and almost non-e1istent
person known rs "the scholar in politics
has been again Attracting public notice. Prof.
ANDERSON, Of Wisconsin, ventured into poll
tics and was snubbed for his pains There
upon Prot. sunszn, Of Yale, writes the New
York Ecentng Post letter which the latter
publishes with the head, "Prof. SUMNER
asks The Scholar who stands on the bench
- and writes essays to come down and join
him in the arena" The Springfield Repub-
6ean takes up the matter and encourages
other scholars to go into politics by making
thoroughly unworthy fling at Mr. SUMNER
The lAtter's final sentence in the Post sums
up the whole matter "What is needed Tow
Il, not mora thorough theoretical discussion
of the scholar in politics, but that few moro

The announcement that Panama has de-
cIared war against Colombia has more inter-
est than the regular dnily report of South
one of the nine Stntes which form the Es-
tad1s Uzidos de Colombia, the United States
of Colombia The federation is league,
rather than q nation, and SO differs from our
system Of government A German would say
that this was B1sndesstaGt, and Colombia q
!Staatenbund The latter was formed by a
Convention Of the nine States at the City Of
Bogota, Sept. 90, 1868. The present Consti-
tuition was adopted two years later. The de-
tails Of administration are patterned after our
system, but the President serves only two
years, and is lucky if he escapes assassination
for that time, and there are three Senators
instead Of two from each State. The Cab
met, like that of England, is responsible
to Congress. There are separate State Gov
ernments, presided over by Governors, but
Panan1a's chief official is styled President,
The population Of the whole country was in
1870 5000, 600, 1900, 300 of whom were Of
European descent Panama is tie eighth
State in population, containing only 220, 1852
Inhabitants, but she is first in importance
By virtue of her situation, she controls the
whole foreign trade of the country. Panama
md Aspinwall, the termini Of the Isthmus
Railway, and the only ports of any conse-
quence, are both within Panama
There is no probability Of any very aniaz-
ing fighting, for the whole peace army OF
Colpmbia amounts to only 1000 men, and the:
war-force, deprived of the Panama contin-
gent, will muster barely $4,000. If the wnr
lasts for any time, Great Britain will be the
chief sufferer. When our tariff confined
American merchants to the home mar.
ket. and forced them 10 close their
foreign agencies, the thrifty Britons took
possession OF the trade of Colombia The
Republic exports raw cotton, caontchouc, in
diRo, and Peruvian bark to England, and i'm
ports cotton, linen, and woolen goods. 1t
buys nearly $40 600, 600 worth of cotton fab
rics every year. This profitable trade may
be broken up by long-continued skirmishing.
South American warfare rarely amounts to
anything more than this. Our interests are
not likely to suffer in any appreciable degree.
Thanks to our tariff, We have no trade to lose.
The North Atlantic feet is already under or
ders to proceed, if necessary, to Panama, and
will doubtless prevent any interference with
the railway. It is not probable that our e.
elusive rights, granted in 1863, to construct
and operate canal across the isthnaus viii be
interfered with.

The trouble between Great Britain and
Burmah has been settled. The State Of
Western Karennce, which lies between the
two frontiers, is to be recognized by both
Powers as inviolab1e neutral territory. The
encroachnent Of Burmah upon this State was
the nominal cause Of the threatened war,
though the real casus beI Was the Burmese
help of the Chinese force which slaughtered

this and no guarantee against similar occur
