Readers of the PRESS who enjoyed "Launce-

canvas the scene representing the heroic saw

In the last volume of the Life CT the Prince

we shall look very blank if we have nothing to

Ancient Troy and Eastern Asia.

Evidence of probable intercourse between
ancient Troy or its vicinity and Eastern Asia
appears to have been substantiated Ey the Chi
nese Minister to Germany, the result of whose
examination of certain inscription in DR..
Schiemann's collection is thus reported in
European journals:-The Norddeutsche lei
tueg says that the Chinese Ambassador at Ber-
lin, Lii Fangpao, well known in his own coun-
try as great scholar, has lately read as Chi
nese the inscription on n vase found by DIR.
Schliemann in the lowest stra tum of his exca-
vations at Hissarlik and figured on page so of
the introduction to his Troy and Its Remains"
The learned ambassador has thus confirmed
the Identification of the language of the in
scription made six years ago by the eminent
Orientalist, Emile Burnouf, which was greatly
ridiculed at the time. Lii Fangpao is quite
confident that the unknown characters which
recur again and again on the Trojan antiqul-
ties, especially ON the terra Gotta whorls, are
those of his native tongue, and gives as the
purport of their inscription, that about B; =;
1900 three pieces of linen gauze were packed
in the vase for inspection. Burnoufs French
version q. C. p. 5D also contained the words
pieces d'etofes aThis vase,'' adds the Nord-
deutsche Zeitung, ''seems consequently to fur
nish fresh proof of the active commercial in

ans the Chinese, carried on with Greece and
Asia Minor, commercial intercourse as to
whose route the Geographical Society here has

The doughty generals name seems to have

his political honesty. However, that will
probably not hurt him, for undoubtedly very
few of those who voted for him last year
thought him politically honest. His next

In a paper read before the Social Scien-
lists at Saratoga on Wednesday, Rev. Dr.
Peabody of Cambridge heartily commended
the participation of women in the selection
of school committees and believed their
service on the school boards to be of incalcu-
liable advantage. His most important reason
for this was, that the school should be re-
garded not as separate Institution from the
home, but as the homes extension and COM
pletement The parental spirit should per-
wade its discipline, and the home feeling
should be cherished in the pupils. In the
man-made schools there is too much of the
army inevitably, and only the active partici-
patton of women in the work of education
can replace this by. the home-like system.
When the public schools were first estab-
lished they were not meant for the girls,
but now that women are recognized as mems
peers. and more in culture, it is time to reor-
ganize the schools de novo, and bring in the
domestic influences they lack, by admitting
to their control those who best understand
how to make them homelike

We stated that the town of Gray levied in
1865 tax of 81 per cent, which tax II PAID,
would cancel the entire debt OF the town
And this tax was paid without the sale OF a
dollars worth of properly. But this year the
times are SO hard that even the low rate OF
tax levied cannot be paid and that the list OF
property offered for taxes reached from tne
ceiling to the floor of the post otnce. rms
statement is contradicted by MIR. Roberts or
Springvale who did not write to the postmast-
er to know if this was correct but wrote to
Republican who evaded the question III the
interest of the party.-Ledder
HERE is good specimen Of Leader eva
sion. Col. Montgomery stated in speech
at Springvale that in the town of Gray, in
the post office, there was list of names fas-
tened to the wall, as high as mans head
and running out on the floor three feet, COM
prising two thirds of all the property to be
sold for taxes. Mr.. ]. B. Foster heard this
statement and wrote to Mr.. Chas. E. Libby,
first selectman of Gray, inquiring in regard
to the facts in the case. Mr.. Libby replied
that there were but twelve parcels of real
estate to be sold for 1878, not as many as in
former years, that the town was out of debt
and had funds in the Treasury. Mr. Libby's>
certificate to this effect was published in the
PRESS. The Leader says it evades the
question. If that be true, the best way to
show It's to publish the certificate and let
readers judge for themselves. As for the
Mr. Roberts whom the Leader says contra
dicted Col. Montgomery's statement, we
don't know anything about him. He has
never figured in the controversy at all until
The PRESS has never mentioned any Mr..
Roberts.

The New York Democrats.

The New York Democrats have concluded
another of their annual shindies and with
very unsatisfactory results. The Syracuse
convention in many respects closely resem-
bled Democratic conventions of former
years. In other respects it was different
There was plenty of the fighting, some of it
physical, which always plays prominent
part in official gatherings of New York DEM
ocrats, and there was some pocket pick
ing in which the wealthy delegates were
made to shell out against their will for the
benefit of their low down associates. But
the love feast which has generally followed
the two days row was entirely wanting this
year. The warning factions refused utterly
to be reconciled. Coaxing and threatening
were both powerless. Tammany vowed that
Robinson must be thrown overheard, and
Tilden was equally firm in his demand that
he be nominated, The latter won and the
Tammany delegates withdrew in disgust and
nominated John Kelly, thus splitting the
party into two wings, each powerful and de-
termined.
No principle was at stake in the contest.
If there had been the contest would have
been amicably arranged by throwing the
principle overheard. But the whole fight
was over the control of official patron
age and Of course in such contest neither
side would yield an iota of its demands.
One never knows how firm a Democrat can
be until he is asked to give up an office.
Then he is as unyielding as the rocks. John
Kelly insisted that the control of the patron
age of New York belonged to him and Tam
many Hall. Mr.. Tilden insisted that it did
not and that it must be given to his friends.
Neither of them was animated by any loftier
motive than selfishness. Tilden wanted the
patronage simply for the purpose OF further
ing his presidential aspirations Kelly wanted
it as the only means of retaining power in
New York City politics. The convention
decided in favor of Tilden, and Kelly has
appealed to the people. Thepeop!e will un-
doubtedly settle the squabble by electing
the Republican candidate, Mr.. A. B. Cor
nell
