fereaces, alien and absentee landlords in Ire
land, the evil results of the ootter system con
tinued for generations, strong revolutionary
spirit never wholly dormant, the political in
stincts Of the Celt which make of all political
action something akin TO romance; ali these
things give the Irish land question its individ-
usl ooloring, but at the bottom it rests upon a
ieep-seSIed belief that no Landlord has a lust
claim 10 soil he does not cultivate in person.
Judging from the usual index Of national
distress. emigration. the suffering Of the agri-
cultural olSs ses in England is much moro Sc
we're than in ireland. Large branches Of Irish
agriculture are unaffected by the wet season.
The wages Of laborers have not fallen. and the
number Of persons dependent on public relief
has not increased. The reverse is true in
England. Emigration there has gone up at
bound, and now supplies one-fouTth Of the ar
rivals in America and larger share in
Australia. The emigration trom Ireland has
not increased. and there are no reports of those
wholesale departures which constitutes an
English exodus While the farmer IN Eng
land, however, is leaving outright or peace

but it does not differ in kind. A bad harvest,
successive bad harves,S have come, and the
demand is made that the landlord shall waive
his claim for : rent which the land does not

Mr.. Parnell, a member Of Parliament who has

When the ice closed in upon the Vega, and
left the stout ship enslaved in those northern
solitudes, Prof Nordenskjold wrote letter TO
Dr. Oscar Dickson, the main contributor to-
ward the fitting out Of the expedition, describ-
ing the scenes along the coast. The letter,
despatched on the 10th Of February, has at
last reached Its destination, and is now pub
lished in the London St1Hdrd. The letter
calls attention in the first place to a group of
islands which are very remarkable from a sci
entiGc point Of view. These islands, the New
Siberian, open the book Of the history Of the
world ct a new place The ground there Is
strewn with wonderful fossils. Whole hills
are covered with the bones Of mammoth, rhi-
noceros. horses, Uri, bison, oxen, sheep, etc.
The sea washes up ivory upon the shores. In

noticed between the implements, dresses and

The Science Of Kissing.

Science in the last few years, sa, 8 The
New Orleans Times, has gained a terri
bic foothold in this world. 1t has ratified
the dry bones Of old fogyism, made pi
out Of WORKOUT theories, upset ideas
which have been established for cen
turtles. The latest and most astonishing
fact that has been developed is that
there is a scientific mode of kissing.
The day when a young man could grab
a girl around the neck and gobble a kiss
in a rough but comfortable manner is
past. The time when he could circle
her waist with one arm, get his shirt
bosom full of hair-oil and pirouette his
lips oven every square inch of her con
%tenance, is no more. Science has pro-
claimed against it, and man shudders,
but remains silent. The old style Of
kissing, which sounds like some one
tearing a clap-board Oft a smoke-house
is o considered bad taste, and conse-
quently is rapidly going out of fashion,
"'Npo'Sh ~ hihJ'iitv VI gins ouuiilIt
that science has cruelty destroyed all
the comfort Of a l~ong-lingering, heart
thrilling kiss, and causes them to ex-
press no little regret at the change. The
improved scientific method of kissing is
to throw The right arm languidly around
the fair ones shoulder, tilt her chin up
with the left hand until her nose is
pointed at al angle of forty degrees, or
rather until it has an aspect resembling
the bowsprit of a clipper-built sloop,
then stoop slowly and Craze about her
lips in "A quiet, subdued sort of way,
tickle her nose with your mustache I'M
til she cries Couch +" This is scientific
kissing, but there is 10 consolation in
it%-nothing to make a man feel like a
couple Of galvanic batteries were gallop-
ing along his spinal column. 1t is fiat
lukewarm; it lacks substance, and if
not stale is at least Improbable.

THE POLICY OF SILENCE.

There are men in the democratic
party in Tennessee, and perhaps
some republicans, though precious
few, who would favor in the coming
canvass policy of silence on the
state debt question. That is an i'm
possibility. The time has come
when such a policy can not be main
tanned. Like the ghost of Banquo,
this question will not "down"
Both political parties might hold
their state conventions and in their
platforms ignore it, and still it would
be one of the leading issues in the
canvass. 1t has been lodged heres
tofore, but it can not be again. The
party that attempts to ignore it,
will gain nothing by its cowardice.
There must be a clear, unambiguous,
pointed expression on the subject
that will be fully understood by the
most untutored mind. The issues
are understood and the lines diss
tinctly drawn. Those who go into
the contest must be on one side or
the other. He who sits on the
fence will be despi8ed by both par
ties and trusted by neither. True
state credit men will support no
candidate whose position is not
clearly understood, and the repudia-
tionists will not vote for candidate
unless he is committed to their dis
honest schemes. Candidates must
speak out. Parties must define
their position. The policy of ST.
lence will not be successful.

Conkling, Blaine and Wash burne
New York Tribune.

New York Tribune.
In the Cincinnati convention of
1876 Mr.. Conkling was one of Mr.
Blaine's most resolute and persist
ent opponents; but it was arranged
that, if Blaine obtained the nomi-
nation, Gov. Woodford should at
once take the floor, and, speaking
as Mr.. Conkling's friend, should
formally pledge the electoral votes
of New York to the Maine states
man; and the pledge would have
been Loyalty kept, SO far as the
power of the republican leaders
of the state extended. Mr.. Conk-
ling's friends would have done their
best for Mr.. Blaine in 1876, and
they will do their best for him in
1880 if the occasion presents itself.
Those who assume that Mr.. Conk-
ling would snot heartily support
Blaine assume at the same time that
he would support Washburne. This
would be more embarrassing. Conk-
ling and Washburne quarreled Bit
terly long while ago. They have
not spoken together for twenty
years. If the carrying of New
York is to depend upon the personal
friendships or enmities of one dis
tinguished political leader, then
Mr.. Washburne, who is talked of
as the compromise candidate to
reconcile all rivalries and animosi-
ties, is the one man especially to
beware Of.

THERE has never been o report

THERE has never been q report
made to either house of congress
that shows more partisan malignity
than that prepared by Ben. Hill, in
the Kellogg case. The slums of
New Orleans were ransacked for
evidence against Senator Kellogg,
and the sayings of street loafers,
bar-room pimps and tramps in sos
ciety were freely taken and fully
credited by the democratic majority
Of the committee. Their stories,
transparent lies as they were, were
magnifed into the highest character
of evidence, and a report based
upon them, the truth of which
could not be believed by any intel
ligent man. The whole thing was
manipulated by the odorous Ben.
Hill, who, from recent devel-
opments, does not mind at
all to engage in mean
things. The report was the off
spring of his brain and is a fair
sample of what can be concocted
by one of his morals. We have
known for long time that he is a
desperately mean man, and this re-
port does not change our estimate
of him. 1t is worthy of the MUIR
derer of VIM. L. Yancey, who
afterwards plead that act as rea-
son why he should be released from
federal Imprisonment at Fort La
fayette.
Knoxville daily chronicle. [volume] (Knoxville, Tenn.) 1870-1882, 1880-03-25

IT is passing strange that Ben.
Hill submits 80 quietly to the dam
aging charges made against him by
Mrs. Belva A. Lockwood. His
friends say it is an attempt to black.
mail him, but if that is so, why
does he not prosecute her. She is
not an irresponsible person by any
means. She has ample property,
unencumbered, to satisfy any judg-
ment he may obtain against her. If
he can sustain himself in a law suit
it would be hundred times better
to bear with the unenviable publici-
ty of such proceeding, than to be
lodging about, invoking the pro-
lection of policemen, or hiding like
a fugitive culprit from the presence
of a woman who claims that he is
the source of her woes. But if he
can't do that, he might at least go
home spell and "mend his fences"
and get ready for spring planting.
Even that would be more dignifed
and less Objectionable than the un-
enviable attitude in which he is
placed by his own acts at Washing>
ton. By all means, Mr.. Hill, 60
home for a few weeks and look after
your fenees.
