CHIEF JOSEPH has turned his at
tention to editorial work. He has
written an article reviewing the gov
ernment's dealings with the Nez Perces
from the days of Lewis and Clarke to
the present time. Bishop Hare, of the
Episcopal church among the Dakota
Sioux, writes a sympathetic introduce
tion. Joseph's account of the late war
differs from official and other publish
ed accounts. His present style of argu-
ment is certainly an improvement
upon his former efforts. His pen will
not be SO injurious to the whites as his
sword has been.

THE origin of the troubles between
the Burmese and the British residents
Of Mandalay, a Calcutta dispatch says,
is that the latter protect and refuse to
deliver up to slaughter two royal
princes and their families, who have
taken refuge at the residency. The
king of Burmah, who is said to be mad
with drink, urged by fanatics and the
reactionary party, threatens to force
the residency. Such hostile measure
on the part of the government, it is be-
lieved, would be signal for a general
massacre Of the citizens.

We ask a careful reading and thought
full consideration of what follows 1t is
now over twelve years since new cure for
chronic diseases was discovered, known as
Compound Oxygen" The results which
have followed its use up to this time have
been so remarkable that it is beginning to
attract the widest attention. Many intelli-
gent physicians in various parts OF the
country have, after careful investigation
OF its scientific and pathological claims,
used tin cases where all other known rene-
dies had failed, and with success alike sur
prising to themselves and their patients.
In consumption, catarrb, asthma, bron-
chitis headache, dyspepsia, and the wide
range of neuralgic disorders from which SO
many suffer lifelong tortures, it has rarely
failed to give relief, and in many cases to
make permanent cures. 1t Is not drug,
but new combination OF the two elements
which make up our common air, giving OK,
ygen in excess. 1t is taken by inhalation
and cures by natural and orderly processes
first by eliminating the excess of carbon
which has accumulated in the system; and
secondly, by revitalization of all the great
nervous centres. III order to give the pub
lie an opportunity to learn all about this
new treatment we have prepared a care

A CRYSTAL PALACE IN WASHINGTON
PARK

The completeness of the Horticultural
Department this year, and the warm en-
comiums it received from professional
florists as we'll as amateurs, is one Of the
pleasing features of the Exposition, and
yet the fact that many persons having
extensive collections of rare and beauti-
full plants made application too late to
secure place for display, while
those who do exhibit find them
selves crowded for room to exhibit
properly their show plants, lads to the
inquiry among those interested in this
class of exhibits, why this branch of the
Exposition should not have separate
and distinct building prepared for its
use? Washington Park, across the street
from the present hall, is in all respects
suitable. Why may not proper chrys-
tai palace be here erected that shall be a
permanency, like the present Exposition
building, and really part
of the same idea, where fine
plants shall receive due attention and re-
main all the year round. While not inter-
fering with the square as a park of popu-
lar resort, fine floral and plant conserva-
tory might be here erected, that, like the
Music Hall and Exposition Building
should be permanent ornament to the
attractions of the city; and botanic
garden could be added also as
part of the place. Here space
would be afforded for displays of plant;
from every section of the country during
our annual Exposition and a museum o1
tropical and other rare plants gathered
and exhibited at all times of year. What
we need is a moving spirit in this scheme
for al added feature of interest to Cincin
natl visitors and man of wealth, liberal
ity and taste wholike Mr.. Springer, chooses
to bestow his princely gifts while living
to enjoy their usufruct in part during hi>
own lifetime. The Importance of the
Horticultural Department in the attrac
tions of the Exposition is seen in the in
creased crowds who throng the building
on the days known as Flower Display
Days. The reasons, therefore, for enlarg
ing and crystalizing into permanenc.
this pleasing feature of our great shov
are too obvious to be argued, and W

FOLLOWING OUR LEAD.

The late British Parliament passed an
act creating the office of public prosecu-
tors, the duties Of the Office being almost
the same as those of district or common
wealth attorneys in the United States.
In fact, the new measure is a lesson the
British Government has learned from
Uncle Sam, and very reluctantly adopt
ed. The effort for its introduction has
been going on for years, but if John Bull
is nothing else he is conservative. This
new measure will effect great revolu-
luton in the criminal practice. Prior to
its adoption the Crown was not repre-
sented at all at criminal trial, unless in
matters of unusual importance, as in
cases of homicides or treason, on which
occasions the Attorney General or some
Government solicitor would manage the
prosecution.
In ordinary criminal prosecutions the
complainant or prosecuting witness was
expected to employ counsel at his owr
expense. In case of his inability to dc
so the culprit was very apt to escape, al
he was quite sure to if the complainant
was eligible to the influence of bribe
On the other hand, private malice wher
backed by wealth, by employing thu
ablest prosecuting counsel, would Otter
lead to the conviction and transportation
of an innocent man who had made him
self obnoxious to his prosecutors.
The new act of Parliament recognize
the fact that all proceedings in crimina
cases are by the State alone and provide
for the appointment OF Director o
Public Prosecutions who will have al
assistant at the several assizes, who vii
be guided by rules and regulation
framed by the Attorney General ana az
proved by the Lord Chancellor.

ted by the New Orleans Democrat, which
is usually pretty reliable authority, that
the end of the year will find us with a
dollar in gold for every two dollars in
paper or for every two dollars and quar-
ter of paper and silver. From 1868 to
1867 we had been sending abroad an av-
erage of 100000 of our precious met
ais annually, or nearly all the product of
our mines not absorbed in the arts. Dur
ing the three past years, however, this has
been changed with the results above
stated.

In Edinburg street cars are not allowed
to run on Sundays, but at the churches
all the worshipers are permitted to join
the choir in singing. The latter privilege
amply compensates for the inconvenience
of walking to Church, and it is safe to
say that it is taken advantage of in every
instance. The man perhaps has not yet
been born who docs not pick up his
hymn-book with the consciousness that
he can sing a deeper bass or richel
tenor than any member of the choir; and
in this way he not only gratifies an limo
cent vanity, but he materially aids hi
neighbors in their devotions, for if any
thing will make worshiper feel a
