Gall HamiIt0n's Victims,

Among the wounded ducks who have been
brought down by Gail Hamilton's sharp pen,
none appear to have suffered so severely as Joe
Medill, the hypocritical reform :jobber of the
Chicago Tribune. The Western newspapers
enjoy his raving and scolding. The following
imaginary interview with him, from the Chi
cago lnter-Ocean, is fair sample of the way
they treat the poor fellow in his misery:
TWILL PROBABLY BE SETTLED.
Reporter-Mr. Medill, simply wish to ask
you few questions about your fight with Miss
Dodge.
J. Mn answer you nothing. You and
your paper are on the side of that woman.
Reporter-Not at all. We are disin terested
spectators.
j. MI wish you'd go away
Reporter-But first answer me this: Do you
intend to pursue Miss Dodge?
j. M.-To the bitter end.
Reporter-That was not the example of the
Joseph of Scripture. If l recollect Alright he
was the pursued, not the pursuer.
j. M.-(excited) don't care that (snapping
his fngers) for the Joseph of Scripture. No
woman can trample on me. tell you that!
handy Don't get excited Mr. Medill Let the
lake breeze sooth your turbulent spirit. L am
to understand then, that you will fight Miss
Dodge to the death?
j. M-Yes, sir. It's to be a struggle for life,
1 fight for the equality of my sex.
The fittest place for man to die,
Is where he dies for man.''
Reporter-Do you think Miss Dodge medt-
tates driving you from your home and banish-
ing you from the haunts of man?
j. MI do You don't know anything about
women, young man. She is as relentless as q
Bashi-Bazouk.
Here is map of the situation.

THE meeting of the Social Science Associ-
alton at Saratoga this year is to be prolific in
schemes for more perfect government and
better living. If the theories of the innumer-
able gentlemen who are to read papers on
that occasion could all be carried out, this
country would become veritable Utopia and
we should have governmental machine that
would put to shame the most cherished theo-
ries OF the civil service reformers. The ses-
sions Of these social. regenerators will cover
four days, and in that time it is proposed to
elaborately discuss, and if possible, settle the
industrial and social aspects of the Southern
question, changes in populati on, municipal
government, vice and pauperism, ventilation
and warming of school and other buildings,
various educational problems, insanity, the
silver question and resumption, taxation,
banking, hygiene, and numerous other sub
jects recognized as belonging under the head
of ''Social Science" A vast amount of brain
power must needs be exercised in considera-
ton Of all these topics, and it is perhaps for
tunate that the Association meets at Sarato-
ga, in order that it may avail itself of the
daily recuperative influence of the waters and
the charming drives in that locality.

Notes and Announcements.

Roberts Brothers will soon add to the No
name-series novels by the authors of Mercy
Philbrck's Choice and Kismet, one by each.
d. Lothrop & Co. bring out at once hand
some edition of The Confessions of Augustine,
work long out of print.
The July Atlantic will have a sonnet by
James Russell Lowell. Its musical depart
ment is taken up by criticism on the Wagner
ian opera.
In the August Atlantic Mr.. Howells will
have a comedy-romance; T. S. Perry will be a
contributor; W. W. Harvey will write sketch
of Southern life; there will be a story of New
England civilization entitled The Child of the
State, and the Agassiz Museum at Cambridge
will be the subject Of an article.
new history of the United States Is an
nounced from the Quaker City. 1t Is written
by Friend, Josiah W. Leeds, and is intended
to offset those histories which deal chiefly with
wars. Mr.. Leeds will chronicle those things
that make for peace with the purpose of prov
ing that "straightforwardness'' is the better
policy.
Two novels by new American authors will be
issued during the season by G. P. Putnam's
Sons. The first is story of The johnson Manor
of the Mohawk Valley, in the early days of the
Republic, and is by Mr.. James Kent, grand
son of the Chancellor. The other, Her Sacrifice
Sto-y of English Life, is bYa young lady
known in New York society, who conceals her
identity behind the unknown quantity ''X.'
The Peterkins are to shine anew in the July
st. Nicholas. They had their tea-party, to
| which too many guests. came, and they returned
from the Centennial where they all got lost;
now, we suppose, they are to be almost mad
dened by the attempt to keep the Fourth of
July in a fitting way. The literature of the
day contains no more exquisite examples of the
humor of inconsequence than these celebrated
papers
Mr.. j. 81. Beade, who has lived in Utah,
gives it his opinion in Scribner for July that
the basis of the whole trouble with the Nor
mons is not SO much polygamy as their peculiar
system of theocracy. He says their histoIy is
one of quarrels and conflicts with the commu-
mites about them. He quotes an appropriate
Hoosier proverb: "When man moves seven
times and quarrels with the neighbors every
time, he takes the worst neighbor with him
eyerv move"

GENERAL Malone and Major Daniel-the
first named representing ''the first families of
Virginia. and the latter the business inter-
ests of the State-are the leading candidates
for the Democratic nomination for Governor
in the Old Dominion. As the Mayor has
good prospect of obtaining the nomination
:,
the power of pedigree in Virginia politics has
seemingly begun to wane.

Short History of Rhode Island, by G.. w.
Greene, L. L. D. 81. A. & A. X. Reid, Provi-
dence) is carefully compiled and interesting
narrative of the history Of that state from its
settlement to the present date. 1t is plainly
and suitably written in an unaffected and
pleasant style, and gives graphic picture of
the hardships OF the early settlers, their Gus
toms, laws and traditions, and of the troubles
that beset their existence. In an appendix are
contained map, the charter of the state, the
constitution and various other statistics. The
print, paper and binding are in fine taste, in.
creasing the value and attractiveness of this
excellent addition to the historical literature of
New England.
The Grinder Papers, by Mary Kyle Dallas
New York: G. w. Carleton s. Co.. Portland: :
Loring, Short & Harmony is of the wearisome
and lengthy series of sketches of professed
comic tendency; whose humor, being analyzed
consists of equal parts of commonplaceness and
elaborately mistaken spelling The particular
volume under consideration narrates the ex-
periences of Miss Charity Grinder, the conven-
tonal meddlesome and acrimonious spinster.
AT very long intervals gleam of something
amusing, by contrast, appears; but the general
effect is conspicuously dreary.
The Latimer Family, or the Bottle and the
Pledge. by 7. S. Arthur philadelphia. T. B.
Peterson & Brothers) is, as is usual with Mr..
Arthurs stories, written with earnestness and
good aim, and is to be regarded as designed to
aid good cause, rather than to be criticized as
literary production. The volume contains
three temperance stories, depicting the evils of
drunkenness in graphic terms, and will no
donbt do much good in its chosen mission.
The illustrations are many and atrocious, Civ
ing the book cheap and dissgreeable aspect.
Messrs Osgood & Co, add to their delightful
Vest Pocket Series four volumes containing re-
spectively: favorite poems of Robert Browning,
including the ringing How they Brought the
Good News from Ghent to AK, and the noble
Prospice; poems by DR.. Holmes, with their
rich wit, poems of Mr.. Longfellow that are
priced everywhere the English tongue is under
STOOD and Hawthorne's Legends of Province
House, haunting and shadowy in their wonder
fully vivid wording.

THE removal of the Hon. Geo. F. Talbot
from the position of solicitor of the Treasury
reflects no discredt upon the character of our
distinguished townsman. The reasons for the
removal,so far as they have been given to the
public, are very vague, but the gist of the
whole affair seems to be that the President
and Secretary Sherman wanted the place for
another man. Just how this illustrates the
civil service reform on which the administra-
tion prides itself, it is difficult to see. Ger
tainly no complaint has been made but that
Mr.. Talbot faithfully and capably discharged
the duties of the office.

RETURNS from the election in Georgia as
to the holding of Constitutional Conven-
tion come in slowly, but enough are received
to determine its success. Georgia has
habit of going overwhelmingly Democratic
whenever it takes the notion, and as there are
some features in the present Constitution
notably the late war as rebellion, and that
which recognizes allegiance to the National
Government as paramount to fealty to the
state-which do not sit we'll upon the aver

THE question is asked, says the Cincinnati
Commercial whether Samuel j. Tilden is to
succeed Mr.. Conklng in the United States
Senate" Well, it would strike the average
observer of New York politics that Mr.. Til
den will not succeed anybody, and
least of all the Hon. Roscoe Conkling. Touch
ing this matter the Buffalo Commercial says:
"The people of New York will think twice
before they replace man possessing the
magnificent abilities and actuated by the
broad craftsmanship of Roscoe Conkling for
man who cannot lay claim to any higher
qualifications than those OF sharp lawyer
and shrewd politician. These latter are
not the characteristics for a Senator from
the Empire State of the Union"
