In 1922 he was given the command of Vera
Croz but INSTRUMENTATION led to his dismissal,
and through revenge he aided in the downfall
of the Emperor 1turbide. Becoming chief of
the Federal party in the succeeding contest, he
was sgnally defeated aud he retired to his
home. At the end Of 1928 he secured the over
throw of the Pedrazs Administration. The
elevation of Guerro made him Minister of War
aud Commander-in Chief of the army. Santa
Anna's life at this time was full of excitement.
In 1886 he took the field in person. revolu-
tionary feeling long existed in Texas, and Santa
Anna headed the army of invasion. He was
captured after o bard fight. He returned to
Mexico after q visit to the Uoited States, and
from October, 164l. to June, 1874, he was virtu-
ally dictator of Mexico. Then he was deposed
by another revelation and banished for ten
years. He went to Cuba. bnt was recalled in
lS46 and appointed GeneralissImo, and later
Was made Provisional President. In February,

can troops at Buena Vista, 600 strong, under

Gen. Alvarez. After a struggle of two years,
Santa Anna signed his unconditional abdic ca
tion, and in 1855 sailed for Havana. During
the French inv asion he reappeared in Mexico,
and pledged himself to strict neutrality but q
manifesto tending to excite disturbance in his
favor, led Gan. Bazaine to order him to quit the
country. Macmillan appointed him Grand
Marshal of the Empire, but in 1865 having
been implicated in q conspiracy against the
Emperor. he withdrew to ST. Thomas In 1867
he made q last attempt to gsin ascsndency in
Mexico, but was taken prisoner and condemned
to death. Juarez pardoned. him on condition
of his quitting Mexican soil forever, and he
came to the United States. When Juar died
Santa Anna was permitted to return to Mexico,
and he has sinoe lived in seclusion in the City

RolixiOus COurtesies

The National Baptist, by way of reply to
the New York (Cath.) Tablet on the way In
which Methodist criminals are turned of
from the scaffOld to the immediate presence
of God, as they allege, writes as follows:
GAS to the implication about Methodist
criminals,' 1t would certainly be needless
work to prove to any person of ordinary Ill
formation that the Romish Church, with
but 10 per cent, of our population, furnishes
probably Is per cent. of our criminals, and
that, after confession, absolutiOn, and ex-
treme JUNCTION, the murderer is dismissed
with passport to heaven"
This is not serious writing. Our Ana
baptist contemporary should reflect that
any sensible person reading it win say,
"1his is not the writing of person who is
serious in his religious convictions, The
only thing he is serious IN is malice, hatred,
and all uncharitableness." It is not "need-
less" to prove that the "Romish church,
has "but ten per cent. of our population" J"
OF that 1t furnishes seyenty-fve per cent.
OF our criminals" Statistics would have
to be badly cooked to produce auch a re-
suit. "After confession, absolution, and
extreme unction, the murderer is (not) dis
missed with passport to heaven" as the
National Baptist is ill-mannered enough to
express it. If he have true sorrow for his
sins he humbly hopes in Gods mercy. He
knows, however, that unless his contortion
be perfect, which In the case of those who
have led lives Of sin must be the result of q
special grace, rarely granted, he will not 90
direct to heaven, even although his soul be
saved, but that he will have first to suffer
the temporal punishment due to offended
Justice in the pains of purgatory. This is
not prospect to make murderer, even
although pardoned and saved, sing and
shout and play the triumphant.

A Buffalo Pot Hunt.

A buffalo "pot hunt" such as used to
take place annually between the Missouri
and Saskatchewan rivers, is described by
H. M. Robinson in Appleton's Journal.
The party, numbering hundreds, started
out about the first of September and re-
mained on the plains until the end of
October. The rendezvous was in the north
east corner of Dakota, and men, women
and children were included in the company.
Carts, drawn by ponies and oxen, conveyed
the baggage, and the camp was enlivened by
gambling, horse racing, dancing and occa-
sionally by fighting. Officers were elected
for the hunt, rules OF discipline adopted,
and then guides conducted the caravan to a
place near which buffalo herds had been re-
Gently seen. The encounter with the
beasts is thus described: "The chief eiyes
the signal, and thousand reckless riders
dash forward at q wild run. Into the herd
they penetrate; along Its sides they stretch,
the trained horses regulating their pace to
that OF the moving mass behind them; guns
flash, shouts and yells resound; the dust
arises in thick clouds over the struggling
band, and the chase sweeps rapidly over
the plain, leaving its traces behind in the
multitude of animals lying dead upon the
ground or feebly struggling in their death
throes. The hunter pauses not moment,
but loads and fires with the utmost rapidity,
pouring in his bullets at the closest range,
often almost touching the animal he aims
at"

Notes and Opinions.


Mark Twain's popularity among the Re-
publicans, according to the Boston "Post, -
has suffered marked wane since that Hart
ford speech.
Well, what in the worlds become of
Pierrepontl Has he lost his voice, or been
bluffed Off Queer, too, that he isn't on the
stump for Hayes.
The "widow" Butler was $50 anxious for
some one to run agin her." Judge Hoar is
the man that's doing it, and now the "wid-
owls" not u bit glad.
If any one asks you how Ohio and Indi-
ana are going, "shoot him on the spot"
This advice is given by the Chicago "Times.'
Norristown "Herald:' :'-"The Review
says there is potato on exhibition at a
Reading cigar store that bears striking re-
semblence 10 a human being. 1t looks like
lite Murphy we presome."

In lines.
The Bashi- -Bazouks in the Turkish army
continue to be unmanageable, and many of
them have left the front. Even Turkey may

Exeisa.e Incident n sea.

Her Majesty's ship Tenedos b hOmewsrd
bound after four years on the Pacific station.
On July ~, according to the English news
psps, she was making for the Gulf OF Penas,
when gale sprang up, which made Cape
Tresm0ntes on the lea shore. Toward night
1t moderated, and Captain Pollard, before
turning in for the night, ordered 6rcs to be
banked, and the chip to proceed under top
sail. She went spinning on at nine Knots an
hour, the shore being supposed to be thirty
miles distant. About two O'Clock in the
morning Lieut.. Graham, officer Of the
watch, reused the Captain, saying that he
felt uneasy, and asking If the course be
changed or steam got up. Capt. Pollard,
however, ordered to keep on the same
course until o'clock. Soon Rfterwar1 land
was sighted close under the lee bow. The
helm was instantly ported, and the ship was
answering exce,lently, when the lookout
man shouted "breakers on starbOard bow"
Lieut.. Graham rushed forward and through
tho intense darkness saw gigantic rock
ahead about five hundred yards away. It
was instantly seen that she could not clear
1t by passing toward the open sea, and
whether there was any channel between the
rock and mainland could not even be
guessed. To venture this was the only
chance; however, and Graham, without one
moment 3 reflection, had to act. He shouted
"Helm hard starboard, square yards, clear
lower deck, callthe Captain" Every order
was obsyed with lightning alacrity, and
there ensued few moments of intense |
excitement and suspense. On rushed the |
Tenedos apparently to certain destruction. |
Less than minute after she swept through
q narrow channel, almost grazing the huge
rock on one side and within hundred yards |
of the mainland on the other. As ten score
men rushed up from below and saw how |
they escaped destruction, even
hardy sailors burst into tears and Lieut.. !
Graham was overwhelmed with thanks and |
ongratulations.-New York "Times."

Results of the He'll Cato Exp,os,o,

General Newton has written letter con-
corning the work at He'll Gate, in which he
says "The object of the explosion was
mainly to break up the rock in order to its
removal BY the steam grapple to depth of
twenty-stx feet at mean low water. Anv
increase of depth through the agency of the
explosion alone was no necessary spart Of
project. An increase Of depth suitable for
vessels drawing less than twenty feet has
been the result of the explosion, owing to
the peculiar disposition made. The buoys
were placed to accommodate vessels draw
ing twenty feet of water. Along the ridge
of the reef, at 1S0 feet from the short line
the depth, which originally was nothing
Is now eight feet at mean low water, and Il
increases gradually to twenty feet at the
buoy on that line. The survey now in pros
gress will be pushed to It's completion, in
order to furnish sailing directions to pilots
too cautious now to venture inside OF the
line of buoys."

THE QUESTION OF THE HOUR.

When the revolution was seething in
France, tax gatherer was told the poor
had no bread to eat; "let them eat Aints,
they are plenty" said Debarere. A few
days ago poor man in Washington COM
planned to sleek official, that hunger was
staring him in the face what and the
woods full of chestnut, said the officeholder.
The Frenchman's retort was bitterly
repaid. So also was that of the American.
In times of great public danger men CON-
monty pay the closest attention to that
most intimately affecting them. Now it il
that the workingmen of the land have
staring them in the face the question Of
bread. The deposits of very many of the
poorer men in the savings banks are
exhausted, there is no prospect of any work
this winter. Starvation, want of clothes,
and fuel stand as the accusers of the party
who has had tho irresponsible control Of
public affairs for sixteen years. Why are
millions idle, and myriads starving in this
land Of bounteous plenty ? demands the
sober. minded citizens. No answer. Your
guilt has made you dumb but the cause
is well known. Since 1865 the Republican
party like the unfaithful Steward have
wasted and stolen enough to have dis
charged all the debts of the people. The
drain upon the country has SO lessened the
value Of home products; and so enhanced
foreign necessaries, that the great farming
interest, is unable to pay wages to cultiya-
tors, hence discomfort and removal to large
cities, to swell up the great army Of hun
cry idlers, mass gradually concreting into
q class, that sooner OF later, will avenge
their wants in no mild fashion.
1t will thus be seen, that the corruption,
waste, and robbery, of the rings that rule
US brings famine to the poor mans door,
and in the end will carry misery to rich
mea's mansions.

HOW NOT To DO IT,

The members Of City Council elected
in September last, won their places
under the cry of reform and economy
Their action in Council has proved
their promises to like the deacons oath.
Their first act was to prepare to
cement the old broken city ring,
and restore it to its bad eminence. A step
has been taken, place was endowed with
sufficient salary to enable Mr.. Charles
Gallagher to take it; and once entrenched
in the Water Department it is intended to
be the citadel of the ring. Few men there
are in Wilmington of equal ability in the
management of faction as Charles GAL
lagher, energetic, INSCRIPTIONS, trained
and Injured to GOWN and trick in politics,
it is intended that he shall SO manage and
manipulate alike voters, colonizers, round
ers and repeaters as to hold the fort for
Harry and ring, against revels within, and
enemies without. We are passing through
a particularly hard time, and it is the
queerest sample Of retrenchment and re"
form to increase the salary of the Chief
Engineer of the water department from
s., 900 to 81, 800 per annum!
Can any plain man, not intent upon the
dawning of faction of the Republican
party, solve the conundrum. Where does
the economy come in?
