Edison's Latest.

It is alleged that the Wizard of Menlo Park has perfected an electric locomotive which is just the thing to take the place of the smoky, sooty, noisy engines of the elevated railways. It is true that he has made some mammoth promises that lave not been kept. He has not as yet much reduced the consumption of gas as an illuminator, although six mouths ago the world was talking about the electric light for common dwellings. Nevertheless, his wonderful achievements have been such as that his sannounce- ments all attract eager attention, and the world has not yet ceased to expect the performance of wonders by his genius. Hiselec- tric locomotive would, if all he expects to make it, remove most of the disa greeable features of the elevated railways, and be great. blessing to the people. If the electric engines he has ordered for the operation in early Autumn of a ten-mile section of the Cam den and Amboy Railway are suc- cessful, he may be sure that his invention will at once find a pur- chaser in our rapid transit compa- nies.- Mail.

mind the clergy of the fact that they can claim exclusive authori- ith in this department at the ut- most only under an implied con- tract into which they have drift ed. It is in order also to allude to the fact Chat the church has not lived up 10 the terms of this implied contract. Two-thirds Of the community receive no moral instructions whatever from the pulpit, and we think it is about time to annul the terms of this implied contract. Commerce and politice require an immediate in iilx of moral sentiment, and we
 must, without delay, utilize every possible source Of moral influence. The press and the public schools stand ready for duty, and these instrumentalities are pre-enni- nently adapted to the work in hand. But we are told that the Bible is the only possible stand ard of n1orals-that we cannot, therefore, enter upon moral in. structiOn without invading the domain of sectarianisgn. Admit
 ling for the sake of argument, that the Bible is the only ultimate standard of morality now within reach, we reply that our best lit erature elnbOdies ali the funda- mental principles Of morality. More than that, the science of law itself is comprehensive com- pendulum of morals. Here, then, we have two grand hemisperes in the world Of moral ideas that are beyond the reach of the pulpit, as that instrumentality is usually administered. The public schools and the press have, then, at hand, abundant material, and can enter at once upon a system of moral instruction that will teach the masses who absent themselves from the churches. Every child can be enriched with the moral ideas con tained iu some sparkling gems of literature.
 Wise teachers, if they are in any considerable degree endowed with literary tastes, can flood the mind of youth with fructifying moral ideas from literary sources, and the editorial pen can re'en- force the teachers by a higher and nobier standard of thought than has heretofore been indulged in. An emergency is upon us, and we must command the vigi- !aut use of these two grand in strunentaIities in the moral cul-
 ture of our people.-[Post.

Recouections of the Caravan,

''When I was a youngster," remarked MT. Smiley, as he stood gazing at the bill board, "they used to have 'caravans.' Them were to some purpose. Iremem- Der old 'Bets,' the first elephant that ever crossed the Atlantic. They used to travel with her in the night and show her next day in the tavern barn. She was a sensible old critter. She didn't make an acrobat herself and bal ance on the top of a cider barrel. Not much. She took all the pea nuts and cookies and wiped the fellows across the face who gave her plug tobacco. She attended strictly to business. But I was speaking of 'caravans' They always had their shows In the tents and not on the fences with colored pictures. Lions and tigers and monkeys and rhinoceroses used to interest the boys then without any perversion of the Scripture quotations such as they have nowadays. I'd give nine pence to see such a show again,
 but 1 never shall" And turning away from the deceitful pictures
 with a sigh, just as the head of the circus procession came in Esight, the old gentle Jnan hobbled after the massive golden car of
 Melpomene" three quarters of 2
 mile, bought a ticket to the r
 show and paid seven little

General Eaaeock's Acceptance

The letter which General Kan cock has written accepting the Democratic nomination for Pfesi- dent is one of the weakest cam paign documents ever issued. He says that he endorses the party platform, and forthwith goes back upon il. This is as conspic- uous in what he says as in what he omits to say. His omissions are fatal to his chance of success on this coast. For example, he makes no aIlusion to the Chinese question Of to the rights Of labor. He has uot 8 word to say about railroad and land monopoly. The pressing question of the day nam ely, the conaict between abor and carital-is not touched upon. Yet these are burning questions which must be dealt with by American statesmen, and, if pos sible, solved within the next de- cade. Is General Hancock, with his habits of command untem per- ed by the attrition of civil life, really a friend of the working classes: We say, Mo-" and h1s lettei of acceptance shows it. Will he not naturally lean to capital as against labor; to the rich and powerful few against the weak and struggling many? We reply, "Yes," to these ques- tions, and point to his letter to sustain this view. General Han cock certainly would not object to coolie labor, his military instincts recognizing implicit obedience as the greatest of human virtues. Consequently we maintain that he has rendered it impossible for aly man honestly opposed to Cllinese immigration to vote for him.
 When we come to subjects upon 7t,J Jnl, ITnv1onCstr .,ng sured to speak, we find him sin gularly evasive. This is the case in reference to civil service re form, which he dismisses with the sapient remark that only good men should be appointed to office, which may mean anything or nothing, according as one takes it. His views on the national finance are equally obscure; but 1 when he alludes to fiscal legisla- ton it is apparent that he is not in accord with the platform, which
 went direct for free trade and free ships. If the vague gener- alties used by General Hancock upon this point have any folce
 whatever, they mean that he is
 in favor Of a protective tariff tt
 "encourage harmony and gener-
 ous rivalry among our own indus. tries, which will revive our Ian gushing merchant marine, ex- tend our commerce with foreign
 natl Jns. assist our merchants
 manufacturers and producers t(
 develop our vast natural resources
 and increase the prosperity anC i happiness of our people," These
 are his own words, and vague a l they are, they are susceptible 0
 but one meaning. If, after thi
 revelation, the Workingmen 0 1 San Francisco, or any section 0
 them in California, vote for Han 1 cock, they will go back upon thei } own record, and endeavor to rive upon themselves industrial fetter which Chinese competition, capi l tal and land monopoly hay : forged.-[ Post.

 ''The form of the depressed area
 which lodges the water Of the

 to be lil1ened to 8 flat waiter or a

 it is commonly colnpared;" and
 he adds: "Ehe great continental

 real oceanic depressed areas. The average depth of the ocean floors
 is now ascertained to be about i 5000 feet. As inc average night of the entire land mass of the glone above sea level is about 1000 feet, and the sea area about two and three fourth times that of the land, it follows that the to- tai volume of ocean water is thir- ty-six times Shat of the land above the sea level.

on the 18th off will come one ear; on the

the money does not come by the 10Th the
prisoner will be killed The unhappy
woman goes to work to raise the money,
but the process of obtaining it is so
difficult that by the 18th she has only
obtained 800 dyachmas, by the 10Th 400;
by the 18th 600; and it is the night of
the 18th when the whole sum of 1000

Cost and Profit OF Book Making.
[From the New York Herald

81 should like" said Mr.. Appleton,
taking up pencil and sheet of paper,
"to show you the cost of book making
| don't believe that people, when they
buy book for fifty cents, have any idea
of the capital invested to bring it down
at that price. For example, it cost us
Sl3S, 900 TO publish Picturesque Amer
lea" and that without adding the cost of
printing To be sure, we made great
profit on it. Forty thousand copies
were sold, and -, AGO. 900 turned in by
our agents. An even more profitable
venture was the "Amercan Cyclopedia, -
for which the public has paid IS, 100, 600
OF course, all of that is not profit. 1t
costs an immense amount of money to
carry ON our factory at Williamsburg.
We employ 600 hands and pay out 1898,
