strict attention to duty.
Professor Andrews believed the VOID

cosling station at Goldtsdule, on the
Pacific side of Costa Rica, and the

The navy department confirms this.
Washington, 29.-It can be authorita-
lively stated that the recent establish
ment of naval cosling stations by the
United States vessels KeGrsGrGe and
adams, on the coast of Costa Rica, has
been met with no opposition whstever
from the authorities of the localities in
question, nor are any objections 10 the
stations anticipated, statements to the
contrary Notwithstanding. It is known
to be fact that when the local officials
were spprised of the mission of the
vessels, they assisted the commanders in
prosecuting the work. Had any OBJ osi-
ton on the part of the government OF
Costa R'cs been encountered, the COM
manders of the respective vessels would
have been ordered to cease work immedi-
ately, but no necessity for the issuance OF
such an order having arisen, the stations
were quietly established.

However improbable it may appear, in
the face of the testimony given at the
inquest on the body of the late Charles
DeYOung, it is confidently asserted by
the friends of l. NJ. Kalloch that at least
a dozen witnesses will support the
testimony of Clemet, haw to the
effect that DeYoung did fire the first
shot. The rumor is given for what it is
worth, but there is no possible doubt that
such evidence will be offered and form
part of the defense.

A CARD FROM KALLOCH.
He Tells Nothing, but Moral
tzeS tOnle.

San Francisco, 29.-The Post this after
noon publishes the following card from
young Kalloch:
Editor Post:
1 have not a word 10 say about the
facts or merits of my case. wish It to
be tried in the ordinary fair play
spscially towards the man charged with
murder. This Is supposed to be q
Characteristic of American commu-
mites. but l expect no fair play
on or before ms trial. if the fest men and
corrupt detectives who surround tn
Chronicle office and assume to run this
city can prevent. Il is infamous that
public officers, who are paid by the COM
munity, should work illegitimately
fo- private individuals and convert
what ought to be honorable prosecution
into malignant prosecutions. The articles
published in the Chronicle of lsst Sunday
shows how some of our detectives will
invade private houses and try To frighIen
ignorant people. as for the arrest
of Clemetshsw, l have this u say:
do not know the man, and
L make no statement as to my
version of what transpire1. do not
say whether his testimony was correct or
incorrect, but do declare that he had no
motiye, so far as can sea, TO conceal or
pervert the truth, and that there is moth
ing in his evidence to indicate perjurv.
1t looks TO me as if his arrest is Intended
by the Chronicle and detectives to warn
the citizens of San Francisco that they
must not te stify to any facts that would
even tend towards my exculpaton.

ANTI-THIRD
NJ. Louis Republicans Express
Their Sentiments.
Abstract of General H~sndsrsou's Speech

ST.. LOUIS, March 1.-THE Assem-
blage that gathered at the mercantil,
library hall last night, to hear ex
Senator John B. Henderson speal
against the third term idea, has no
been equaled in late years in the mat
ter Of numbers and responsibility. TIL
large hall was filled to its utmos
capacity, aud the street below wa
lined with those who were unable t,
gain entrance, and fingered to discus
the topic of the hour. The audienc,
was composed, in a great majority, o
the best class Of republican citizens
and many ladies were present under
the ~tutelage and promptings of the
Grant organ CT this city. Severa
hundred members o fthe substratum
of society attended the meeting for the
purpose ofpreventing the adoption Of
an anti-Grant resolution, but they
found themselves overshadowed in
numbers, which prevented the accom-
plishment Of their design by the legiti.
mate means of voting, and the pres
ence of large police force warned
them that disorderly proceed:
ings wonld not be tolerated. Many
German citizens Of prominence and
influence we're seen in the meeting.
The demonstration, while it does
not prove that the republican majority
is against Grant, shows very conclu-
sively that the anti-third term ele-
ment of the party here, as we'll as
elsewhere, is comprised of the most
intelligent, progressive and consei-
entious men, and hat the nomination
Of Grant at Chicago must necessarily
ALLEVIATE from the republican party a
very large minority of its voters, and
that, too, at a crucial time in the
party's existence, when it has no votes
{ spare.
The resolution, which was carried
by storm, indicates the temper of the
meeting.
General HendersOn's speech was
almost purely argumentative. He de-
voted himself to the task of exposing
the dangers involved in violating the
two term traditions Of the govern
ment. The arguments made use OF
we're those commonly heard against
the proposed reelection of General
Grant, but the subject was handled in
a most thorough and exhaustive man.
ner, the speaker calling to his aid all
the powers of his we'll stored legal
mind. lie only touched lightly upon
the scandals of Grants administra-
ton, saying that these had been
CLOSED over and obsc9red by the halo
Of military glory around Grant. and he
(the speaker) did not care to stir that
muddy pool. He then showed, by
numerous references to great facts in
history, that the safeguards of our
liberty could not be too x~ealously
preserved. Grant might not have
any unholy or dangerous ambition,
but if elected to a third term he will
get a fourth and fifth, and such a
precedent established, some man
would at last get in whose ambition
would be dangerous and probably
fatal to the life Of the nation.

poses of the author, nothing could be
more ingenious and do Mr. House a
greater injury. 1t is well known that
Mr.. House is opposed TO Mr.. Tilden,
and, personally, he has no cause to
even respect his Speaker Randall
more than party decency suggests.
This speech was not made in the in
terest of any man; it was for the
good cf our country, elegant and
satisfactory, as was his great effort in
reference to the design and purpose
which be contemplated, it must be
conceded that it is.not fair that the
effect of this extraordinary and admir-
able production should be recorded
without a memorial ola different and
more worthy desire in behalf of our
party and country than he has ever
received from either Mr.. Randall and
his friends. Mr.. Houses speech is the
embodiment ola great lesson, which
lust now is invaluable to the country.
Mr.. House is not to be classed in the
category of moral towards, already too
numerous in party, nor is he OF
that species Of democrat who, want
ing courage to attempt, as much as
strength to accomplish, loves TO mum
Bile OF the game he dared not bite. "
On the whole, if we may Judge Mr..
House by this speech alone, prospect
i've of a cherished appreciation of his
public career and private acts oflife,
we are compelled to pronounce him a
wisu. vigorous and original thinker,
for no man can utter valuable
truths on political and prudential
subjects, unless he possess q vigorous
and powerful understanding. 1t his
lips be sealed and his voice be lost for
ever, this, his own speech, would be a
monument Outlasting the detraction OF
enemies, and perpetuating the admira-
ton of all patriots. Rising majestical
" above the waves OF daily experience
10 the house on representatives, this
speech has already become the Gil
braltar of oratory, guarded by the le-
gions of truth and manned blythe bat
terry of wisdom. In every statement
of Mr.. House there was a vOlome Of
terrific logic, and in every sentence a
,thunderbolt of genius itself. Bright
" the golden sunbeams were his words,
and We. they struck with the fury of
lightning, blasting fromthe fraudulent
occupant Of Of the White House to
the lowest perpetrator Of wrong in the
band Of official seoundrels, 1t was
truly the most faultless production OF
T~ennessees most brilliant orator.

A ballet girl, writing TO the London
Truth, says that she is aware that
actresses never get beyond the out
skirts Of fashionable society, and that
if they are invited to parties and balls
it is only that they may be stared at
and make a reputation for eccen-
tricity for their hostesses; but she
adds that actresses can, from the stage
see into theater boxes when the audi
ences cannot, and the ladies and their
spoon frequently conduct them
selves in a very remarkable manner.
She says that the society ladies' cannot
paint themselves so well as actresses
can, and that she has often wanted to
stop a lady to smooth her rouge and
straighten her eyebrows. She also
alludes to stocking paddings in society
and wonders what they are for.

The real difference is that the news
paper speaks with an institutional
responsibility the apparent difference
is that those speaking init should sink
solfhood and be possessed by the sense
OF that institutional responsibility
referred to. A journalist is a represen-
tative in trust ofprinciples and causes.
They control his paper. His paper
controls him. The work speaks. The
worker only speaks through his work.
This is the case with all papers ad-
visedly called great and admittedly
influential, Such papers in the re-
spect indicated are the models to 90
by. They have no dislocations or
panics. They move with the certainty
aud celebrity and system of machinery.
If there are internal troubles, they
are settled quietly. If men are taken
on or taken off the profession knows
of it, hat the public is not bothered
about it. The precision, gravity and
institutionality, instead OF the indi-
~viduality, of the system prevent a pre-
cipitate advance to obnoxious or
untenable positions requiringa precip-
itate retreat from them. There is no
beating of the tom tom cards, expla-
nations and announcements. No tenn
pie has to be burned down to roast a
pig, No boiler has to be exploded to
effect or proclaim a change of engi-
neerS. The engineers are changed, but
the engineering goes on without haste,
noise or rest.
Not merely to the paper, but to the
editor. is this by far the better way.
1t makes him more of II editor and
less of anything else. lt.6lls him with
mis- profession, and notwith aims or
activities outside of it. 1t keeps him
above the trading political class, and
he is neither apparently their
oracle nor really their errand boy.
He is able to be supreme and serene
in his office, and does not fritter nor
scatter his energies in alien avoca-
tons. He can be the critic, and
needs not to be the crony of partisan
schemers or jobbers. He is a party's
censor and not its servant. He can
concentrate his powers on his work,
and not weaken them or cheaper it by
lending his time and toll to those who
would use him and Aout him when
done with him. He can serve his
paper wholly, and never need a d.
vided duty or interest distrac6 him.
The course commended is journalism.
The course condemned is not. Jour
nalism will enforce itself on journals
and journalists, whether they will
have it SO or not. 1t will run over
them ifthey do not run with it. Jour
nalism is a profession of persons
trained to work impersonally, and ef
fective in proportion as they do not.
The editor who edits passes his life
into his work. and to the common
cause and credit of his calling. Who
does less dissipates his powers, his OPP
portunities, and confounds a losing
and wasting pursuit of outside phan-
toms with the true mission and scope
Of the most exacting and not the least
honorable occupation known among
men.
