Governor Bishop tells the n. Y. Herald that
T1lden seems to be the strongest presidential
candidate In Ohio just now. In fact he has been
astonished at the feeling there is In the state
In his behalf. The cipher investigation has
given him friends he did not have before, and
always there was strong feeling for him be-
cause 1t is generally felt he was cheated out of
his election. Gov. Bishop says In regard to
Thurman, that John G. Thompson injured his
chances by pressing him too early. OF course
Bishop doesn't like Thompson, and doesn't
think much OF the chances OF any one backed
by him. Bishop hopes" Ewing will be elected
but 1t all depends upon the greenback votes
Ewing and Foster are both working hard, he
says, but Foster the hardest. Indeed, he never
saw so much activity on the part of candidate
as Foster is showing,

A correspondent raises protest against
another noisy city nulsance,-the Jangling
sle1gh-bells upon the mules drawing coal-carts
He Tor she) thinks sle1gh-bells may have a
poetic jingle In the country, where noise is
welcome, but here In the city where the ear Is
panied and the soul sick with ringing and bawl.
Ing and clank1ng and rasping clatter, there Is
no plausible or possible pretext for this mode Of
roDDing the sick OF a moments comfort and
sleep during the weary day.
Without dwelling upon this special grievance.
IL seems to us that 1t is about time to start
reform, generally, In behalf of people who have
tS spend their lives In cities. The fact is that
nine-tenths OF the evils that are supposed to be
hseparable from city life, have no more real
ground for existence than that of the noisy
bells complained Of Why should not the
health department and the police be required
TO suppress all those noisy nuisances of the
night that destroy sleep and consequently de-
stroy health,-such as the nuisance OF yeiping
dogs? II it was made the duty OF the police
Tor instance, TO ring the bell at every house
Where bowling dog was numbering sleep
Tor the neighborhood, and to compel the
owner OF the brute to Immediately quiet the
nuisance, under suitable penalties. it is highly
PROBABLE that remedy would be effected
Again, why should such nuisance as the
asphalt boiling concern OF couple Of favored
paving contractors be tolerated In the heart or
the city to send out Its sickening fumes day
and night, and murder sleep for people Of seusl-
tive stomachs? When nuisances OF this kind
are On private property, 10 be sure, the process
OF dislodglng them Is sometimes tedious one.
put In this case 1t Is located On District ground,
on property owned by the very pu blic who are
Ackened by IL, and the District Commissioners
could compel Its removal any hour The list OF
these evils which city people endure year after
year, without law or reason, might be extended
very FAR, but the above are cases that present
themselves at once as hit subjects for a COM
mencement OF reform

The report that Cetywayo is again on the
war path recalls the time during our Seminole
var, when one day the report would be made
that Sam Jones tthe Indian leader had "eome
In" and the war had been ended. The next day
TIE report would come that Sam Jones had gone
Out again, and that the war was, as 1t was
Zulu land.

ENGLISH SERVANTS.
High Life Below Stairs.

Richard Grant White thus writes
in the September Atlantic:
Precedence in England extends even
into the servants hall and the kitchen.
This is manifested every morning.
As family prayers all the house SER
wants attend, just as they used to do
here IN families in which that domestic
discipline was kept up. A row of
chairs is placed for them in the break
fast room, and they enter and take
their seats. The head of the house
reads prayer and the lesson of the
day, or some other part of the Bible.
l observed that the servants in each
house always entered in the same
order, the housekeeper marching at
the head Of the line and taking the
seat furthest from the door. And it
was, | am sorry to say, rather funny
to see some dozen or more of them
pound solemnly in and plump stolidly
down upon their seats. After prayers
are over they of course rise and 20
out. But | saw that they did not 90
out in reverse order, the one nearest
the door going first, as would have
been natural and convenient. They
rose, stood in a line, and then the
housekeeper went out first followed
by the servant next to her; and thus
the line doubled upon itself, the file
thus telling itself off, so that the one
who entered the room last left it last.
The order of entering and leaving was
the same. On speaking of this, | was
told with smiles that precedence was
strictly observed among them; that in
the servants hall the housekeeper
took the head of the table, the butler
the foot, and that the servants, upper
and under, had places strictly assigned
to them according to the dignity Of
their positions. What is the order Of
their sitting or of their going the lord
Of precedence only knows; but | sup.
pose that my lady's maid sits on the
right hand of the butler. and my lord 5
own man on that of the housekeeper
At dinner they sit together at the
common table down to cheese anG
the upper servants only rise and 90 in
state to dessert in the housekeeper'l
room. The upper servants are those
who have servants under them; an
upper servant never wears livery
When visitors at a great house brinl
servants with them, the guests in The
servants hall are formally assigned
places strictly according to the ranE
Of their master or mistress. | learned
also that servants do call each othei
by the titles Of their master auC
mistresses, and that this incident o
high life below stairs is no fiction

Household troubles should be kept
as far as possible from the sick room.
Squabbles of children and servants
never should find an echo there.
In the event of some calamity oc-
curing, of which it is absolutely
necessary the sufferer should be in
formed, the i'll news should be broken
as gently as possible, and every sooth-
ing device employed to help him to
bear the shock.
Above all, an invalid, or even a
person apparently convalescent, should
be saved from his friends. One gar
rulous acquaintance admitted for half
an hour will undo the good done by a
week of tender nursing. Whoever is
the responsible person in charge
should know how much her patient
can bear. she should keep a careful
watch on visitors Of whose discretion
she is not certain, and the moment
she perceives it to be necessary, DO
litely but firmly dismiss them.
She must carry out implicitly the
doctors directions, particuly those
regarding medicine and diet. Strict
obedience to his orders, faithful,
diligent, painstaking following of his
instruction will insure to the sufferer
the best results from his skill, and
bring order, method and regularity
into domestic nursing.
