was examining it, when the top of the

before it reached the ground. Mr.. Man

" Sir, you are most fortunate, for, had
that broken, should have been obliged
to debit your account with $500, the

The gentleman drew along breath, bowed,
and thanked Mr.. MansOn"for the inform

ward meeting the other night TO
press his claims for a judicial nomina-

"LINDA.''

She was at one of the union school
houses half an hour before school
opened. She had "Linda" with her.
She was tall woman, forty years old
with jaw showing great determina-
tion, and Linda" was sixteen, and
rather shy and pretty good looking.
: The mother said she hadn't been in the
city long, and that it was her duty to
get Linda into school and see that she
was properly educated. When the
teacher came the mother boldly in
quired:
"You know enough to teach, do
you?v

bIushing deeply.
II tAnd you feel competent TO govern
the scholars, do yOu?"
--.'Yes'm."
"Do you pound 'em with ierruIe,
or lick 'em with a whip?"
"We seldom resort to punishment
here" repli ed the embarrassed teach

"That's better yei," continued the
mother. al know that if Linda should
come home all pounded up I'd feel
like killing some one. suppose you
are ofrespectable character. .aia't your

the teacher white and then red.
M "Iexpeet you are," continued the
woman. "It's well enough to know
who our children are associating with.
Now, then, do yon allow the boys and
girls to sit togetherl"

That's right. They never used to

Linda is any better than I am. An.

teacher.
d t"Do you allow boy to wink at a

: ~gg"Why, nor

home some night and tell me that she

THE NEW YORK CONVENTION.

The relics of the Liberal party are COM
ing together again in few days in New
York. TO sec what opportunities present
themselves for putting finger in the pie.
A call has been issued, which has several
names of eminent men attached to II, but
theg are chiefly Of those with whom poll
tics is lofty sentiment rather than prac
teal matter of everyday life. Mr.. Bryant,
for instance, who heads the list, is about as
wei, fitted for controlling and mo,ding into
shape apolitics; nucleus as he would be to
run tie principal restaurant at the Centen-
nisl The fact is appareot that while he
AID others give tone to the affair. substan-
tally it is q combination Of Carl Schurz
and Horace White. who carried the Cincln-
natl Liberal coalition to such high point
of success. We do not observe that B.
Graiz Brown has been invited to partake,
so the assumption is fair that the managers,
Schulz and White, confess to having made
a mistake last time about him. II this is
SO, if is not very clear that they will do any
better in this venture. Conceding that
they sre possessed Of the purest motives,
there is still no very good reason apparent
why they should turn up every Presiden-
Tia! year to tell US just what is the proper
thing to do. Indeed, weconfess to belief
that the public thiak they are having lit
tie too much Of this management by this
duo OF distinguished citizens, who never
agree with anybody unless they themselves
can sound the key note Of the agreement.
Mr.. Schurz would look better debating the
policy Of party under the support of the
constituency Of his own State, if they were
willing to indorse his talents for such work,
and Mr.. White has not. SO far as we know
Of done anything notable whatever outside
Of his action at the Cincinnati convention,

even as much public confidence at his back
as does Mr.. Schurz. We dc not look for
anything but petty meddling as the out
come of this meeting, at the instance and
in the interests of distinguished citizens.

ELECTION SUPERVISOR JOHN J. DAvEN-
PORT. Of New York, is well known to the
public generally as courageous aud honest
gentleman, whose official career is illus
traied with Dumberless successful attempts
to destroy the efforts of the Democracy to
carry elections by fraud in the Empire
State. For this reason, and this alone, he
naturally becomes the target of an inYesti-
cation assault. But his assailants have
made q poor selection in the person by
whose testimony they attempt to arraign
him for fraud. Whitley, the witness re-
ferred to, is self-confessed scoundrel,
whose recent testimony in the safe burg-
larry affair is in direct contradiction of his
evidence given on the same subject several
years ago. Mr.. Davenport can well afford
to snap his fingers at such attacks as this.
