ouoint Couccit from Florida.

At the old Spanish fort there are
confined some sixty or seventy hos
tile Indians Of various tribes. In
stead of the conventional striped
convict suits, however, they are
clad in United States uniforms, and
for handouts carry muskets With
bayonets attached. In short, they
garrison the fort in which they are
confined. Imagine an aboriginal
corporal giving himself the coun-
tersicn. or q soldier on guard given
strict instructions to fire on himself
in case he should attempt TO es-
cape! Can Imagination run riot
revel in anything more ridiculous
than is here an accepted fact I've
not vet heard of any mutiny or re-
volt, but it seems as if man who
was sentry over himself, and as
"John the First las Holmes has
In. a soldier, mounts gard over
"John the Second" a prisoner, was
placed in nearly the same relation
as the man who excused himself
for taking two appetizers before
breakfast by saying that the first
always made another man Of him
and he felt bound in politeness to
treat the other man.-Boston Ad'
yertiser.

Boston is experimenting with
novelty in the way Of street light
ing which is said to be one-third
cheaper than coal gas. The ap-
paratus is a cylindrical tank filed
with a prepared fluid, in which coal
oil plays an important part. The
tank is placed outside the street
lantern, near the top, and the fluid
is fed through tube to a gas burn
er inside the lantern, being con-
verted into gas by chemical pro-
ces. during its passage. The light
is said to be as brilliant as that
from the best coal gas. The sys-
tenn has been tried in several Of the
smaller towns in Massachusetts,,
Connecticut and Maine, and is pro-
nounced a success.

in power for a term a party that
was fairly and honestly beaten at
the polls. But it is over now, and
ex-Gov. Hayes occupies the Presi-
deutial chair, the ofRce-holding fac

content, and we hope the country
will settle down TO business in a

Press Opinions.

The carpet-bag policy of the Re-
publican party has made the South
stanchly Democratic, and nothing
that the fraudulent President can
do will alter this fact-Butfalo
Courier.
The Democrats have nothing to
lose and everything Ia gain by the
counting of Hayes into the Presi-
dency-uot because it would not be
wrong. but because it would be the
symmetrical completion of the
greatest of wrongs, and its effect
would be to make the people of the
United States aud the Democracy
the same thing.-St. Louis Repub-
lican.
A good many Of the shrewdest
Republicans acknowledge in pri-
vate discussion that the installa-
ton of Mr.. Hayes may cost them a
majority in the Senate after 1879,
and a majority in the House as
well.-New York Herald.
These insane men cannot COM
prehend the fatal truth of their own
position. How can Hayes presume
to befriend the South after first
partaking in the fruits of defraud-
ing iti If the electoral votes OF
Louisiana had not been given to
him, he certainly could not become
President; but if those voice hon
estly belonged to him, he cannot
deny that Packard was equally
elected Governor.-Boston Post.
There is no easy journey before
Mr.. Hayes. Those who have con-
tributed to his fraudulent eminence
will not permit him, without o de.
cided protest to put on any airs OF
superinr virtue, ignoring his pal;
in the division Of swag. They will
make it warm, and heat his sea-
red hot unless they are recognized
Nashville American.
The plan is now that his Fraud
ulency, Gov. Hayes, shall be pri
vately inaugurated at the White
House on Sunday with no POM
or pageant. This will save him tb,
modification of making anothe
feeble burst of oratory in an in
augural address, and it will saw,
him the shame of riding up Penn
sylvania avenue, the focus of hun
dred thousand pairs of eyes, eacl
one of which would see through
him as a fraud and receiver O

1t can hardly be expected that the manage.
ment of such an extensive concern as our agri-
cultural fair could be SO perfect as to enable it
to pass off, even once, without some fault find
ing. And, indeed, criticism when truthful is
always desirable, because it is wholesome; but
when not truthful it becomes great bore TO all
concerned, except to the critics themselves.
The latest grumbler looms up in the 14ggis of
