way in which he was received:
"M'me de Pompadour was alone,
and standing by the fire. She re-
garded me from head to foot with a

my memory to the last day of my

men and women are sad caricatures
of humanity.
Women bear their bondage more
easily than men, for one never sees
a woman in public try to relieve the
pressure on her poor, pinched sides;
but one seldom talks ten minutes
with a man withoutseeing him run
his fingers around between his
pinched neck and infexible collar
Of seryitude. The muscles are
always demanding room to expand
and contract-always want space
in which to move-and this fashion
does not allow. The man tries to
relieve the cramped muscle, but
must obey fashion, and so is fidgety,
and shows his discomfort.
A mans throat requires, and
should have, no clothing but his
beard and his garments should
never fit so closely around the neck
as to prevent the escape of heated
air arising from the body. An
athlete, to become such, bares his
neck and bosom to sun and wind
and the man whose chest is buried
under a marble slab the hottest day
in summer is about certain to be-
come a dyspeptic. But as if this
were not enough, they must needs
exclude light and air from their par.
boiled bodies by wearing heavy
black broadcloth suits while The
thermometer is ip the nineties, al
the same as those worn when it il
in the twenties.
But the most absurd part of {
mans attire is his head -gear-tht
unaccountable things he wears OF
the top Of his head, alike in
prairie-storm or an over-heated rail
road car. The badness of about
one-third at forty does not teacE
them anything They go on sacri

Uranium is the crowning glory of

Take it all in all, / cannot Sc,
that women Would gain anything
by adopting masculine costume
and think the brethren may be a

ed, and we are shocked to think that
any one should thus die in a land of
plenty. But when the same thing
occurs at distance we are apt to dis
miss it with passing thought, and
when we read and when we hear of
whole communities perlshipg from
lack of food, we can hardly grasp the
magnitude of the calamity. But few
people in this land, we are afraid,
have been able to realize the loss of
life by famine in British India. A
census has been taken in the Presi-
deney of Madras, and it has been
found that out Of population of two
millions over half a million of peo-
ole have died of starvation. There
has been ne negligence on the part
of the Imperial Government in at
tempting to relieve the widespread
distress. Contributions almost prince

from Great Britain, and the author

ing thousands Of men on public i'm
provements to help them in their
extremity. But the failure Of the
rice crop, the difficulty Of transport.
ing supplies and the want Of water
have all been serious obstacles in the
way, and the calculation is now
made that the total number of
deaths in South India will not fall
short of SIX millions! This is a

VIM. Thomas, who killed his wife
in Wilmington, Del, on the 9Th of
April last, by cutting her throat with
a razor, was acquitted of murder a
few days ago on the ground that he
was suffering from delerium tremens
when he did it. A murder, it is adj
mitted, was committed, but nobody
seems to be to blame for it. When a
man is himself responsible for such a
condition, it would seem he should
be responsible for what he does when
in the condition.

can spare from other matters. The
SUBJ Committee for Florida has al
ready gone, to be away about 2
weeks. The letters of Stephens and
Key have been holly denounced in
all Bourbon and GreaseY circles but
they are endorsed by an uncertain
number of Democratic Congress
men, and revolt seems almost in
evitable. The President has denied
the truth of Townsend's interview,
but as understood here, it is more as
to the form than the sentiment of the
statement put out as a correct account
of what was reputed to have been
said by Mr.. Hayes at Gettysburg.

The Cincinnati Enquirer, the lead
ing Democratic paper of Ohio, con-
tinues its opposition to the Potter
Tilden movement, and warns the
Democracy that there is more to be
lost than gained by stirring the mat
ter. 1t says now:
I'VE do not believe in the policy
of beating the air in such manner
The foolishness will have. or has
had, the effect of consolidating the
Republican party, to some extent,
and that, certainly, is not Demo-
cratic advantage. The frauds alleged
have been known and read Of all
men. No investigation at this late
day can strengthen the public con-
viction that the electoral votes of
two States were iniquitously cast or
counted. That was sufficient reason
for advising against the Potter folly,

For some inexplicable reason that
appropriation to pay the expense of
Mr.. Potter's pedauger researches is
to be made by special bill and not
by resolution drawing upon the
House contingent found. A bill APP
propriating $4,000 passed the House
last week, and is now before the Sem
ate. This austere Republican body
will probably put its foot upon the
project, and Mr.. Potter will have the
extreme pleasure of paying for his
amusement out of his own capacious
pocket.-Bdlto Gazette, Democrat.

Comments of the Press.


Two points must impress them
selves on the minds of all impartial
readers on the first days evidence be-
fore the Potter Investigating Com
mission. One is that men who have
for years enjoyed public confidence,
whose lives have been reputable and
whose past records have been unas-
sailable, cannot be successfully i'm
peached on the evidence of a witness
whose testimony proves that he was
ready to commit crime provided
his reward was pledged The other
is that Secretary Shermam's state.
ment to the committee in regard to
the letter alleged TO have been writ
ten by him virtually making such
pledge, was evasive and unsatisfac-
tory. ". Y. Herald.
Enough is known already to show
thin spots on this tissue of fraud.
For example, Anderson referred in
his testimony on Saturday to certain
conversations with Governor KEEL
lOgg. 1t turns out that Governor
Kellogg was absent from New
Orleans during the time which An
dersen specifically fixes on tor his
dates. Anderson was appointed
Supervisor by Lieutenant Governor
Antoine, not by Kellogg, as he AYERS.
These early refutations of the state
ments of man who cohcedes that ne
has lied with frequency and freedom
do not promise well for the solidity
of a case which mainly rests upon
his testimoDy.-NeU York. Times.
Judicious people will be slow to
accept any conclusions as to the guilt
or innocence of any human being
which rest either on the unsupported
testimony of Mr.. Anderson or even
on documentary evidence supplied
by him alone. But the correspOn-
dence of Stanley Matthews with An
derson makes it eminently necessary
for the Senator from Ohio to lose no
time in explaining to the country the
motives which induced him not only
to write such letters as he admits
himself to have written to Anderson.
~ Y. World.
Meanwhile, what has all this testi-
mony to do with the title of Presi-
dent Pages? Nota shred ofevidence
appears thus far to indicate that
President Hayes had at the time, or
has eyer had since, any knowledge Of
fraud perpetrated. There is not even
any evidence of value bearing upon
the question whether a free election
and a fair count would have given
the electoral vote of Louisiana to
Hayes or Tilden, for all that Ander-
son now asserts on the subject has
been contradicted by him under oath
-NeW York Tribune.
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1878-06-08
AnderSon's Story.

The value Of testimony oftentimes
depends entirely upon the character
of the person who gives it. The
story told by James f. Anderson on
Saturday to the Potter investigating
committee may be true, but coming
from a man whose resentment to-
wards the President and Secretary
Sherman proceeds from his failure to
get an office, it must be received with
great caution. Assuming the whole
of his testimony to be true, it in no
way affects the.integrity of any one
connected with President Hayes
Administration, nor does it even
tend to show that the Republicans
did not fairly carry Louisiana. 1t
is quite apparent that Anderson was
in communication with the Louisi-
ana Democratic State Committee
both before and after the election,
and that he meant to levy blackmail
on VIII atever party accepted his offer
to "sell out" We haye no doubt
but that when the other side has
been heard Mr.. Anderson'S state
ment will dwindle into very small
proportions. After reading his COR
respondence with Mr.. Matthews it
is easy to see why he did not get an
office. A man capable of writing
such letters would not adorn the civil
service. -BdLO. An1e1 icdn.

WASHINGTON, May Ex-senator
Davis bill authorizing the appoint
lnent Of an additional circuit Judge
for Illinois, was the occasion Of a
sharp debate in the Senate to-day,
which at first promised to develop
into an animated and intermlnable
political discussion. Senator Blaine,
who seems to be always eager for war
with his Democratic colleagues,
opened the ball by discharging a
deafening broadside of words at SEN
ator Morgan. who bad the other day,
when the bill was last under consid-
Grafton, declared that he was opposed
to the creation 0fmore Federal Judges
until after next 18th of March. Mr..
Blaine characterized this as "the
most extraordinary assertion" he
had ever heard in the Senate. He
knew that the Senate had often with.
held its assent to executive nomina-
tons for political reasons, but this
was the first time he had ever listen
