CHARLES O'CoNoR, in a severe at
of the dumps, said that the democracy
will not elect another president very
soon. Ex-Governor Smythe, of New
Hampshire, is also subject to the blues
and he thinks that-but let him tell his
own story. He says: II am for Grant
because l think he is the only man who
a be seated. We are going to elect
our nominee, whoever he may be, but
the democrats will count him out I'M
less they are afraid of him. Grant is
the only mar in the United States they
are afraid of. They know that he
could call half a million of men around
him by raising his little finger. If we
don't elect Grant not one of US will live
to see another republican president In
the White house.

CoNGREssMEN are ever endeavoring
to do something ridiculous. and they
generally succeed in an admirable man
ner. Another instance will be proven
if congress adopts the new tangled coins
reported upon by the coinage commit
tee. They are the stella, the twenty
five gramme silver dollar, and the
goloid metric dollar. The stella is q
four dollar coin, of six grammes of gold
three-tenths of a gramme silver, and
seven-tenths gramme copper. 1t is
larger than ass gold piece, and very
bright looking. The 25 gramme dollar
contains the same amount of silver as
two silver halves, and also six cents
worth of gold. 1t looks much like the
standard silver dollar, though it is
smaller. Such coins will make "confu-
sion worse confounded."

THE pHoNOGnAPH IMPROVE.

III PHONOGRAPH WE'D.
Edison's photograph has been improv-
ed, and by a young French professor.
The French, who, it will be remember
ed, did not know what to do with the
phonograph in their international ex-
position, in 70, because they were at a
loss to assign it, are become the perfec-
tors of "the scientific toy" as they de-
scribed it.
A French paper thus states the faults
OF Edison's phonograph:
LIST. Its capacity of registry is limited by
the dimensions OF the cylinder.
ID. The necessity of raising the impressed
sheet destroys the perfection Of the emboss-
Ing.
3D.. The tin foil used is incapable, by reason
OF its malleabillty. ofreproducing the sounds
given 1t, save TO n very limited extent.
The young professor spoken of is Mr..
Gustave Gamard, of the Polytechnic
association. He substitutes rectilinear
motion for curvilinear motion; in other
words, he causes the foil to slide length
wise on frames, instead of revolving
on a cylinder, and it is therefore re-
movable without injury. He also sub
stitutes copper or silver for the tin foil
and a more lasting impression as well as
a clearer registry of the vibrations are
obtained as a result.
Mr.. Edison has been too busily en-
gagged with the electric light to expert
ment upon improving the photograph.
There's millions" in the light; and
money tells.

1t is related of the wild ostrich that
when closely pursued, 1t will often put
its head into a ciump of shrubbery be-
lieying itself to be hidden thereby from
its p%ursuers. AS it cannot see them, 1t
believes that they cannot see it. That
is ostrich logic.
This strange characteristic of the
ostrich is frequently found in men and
in newspapers; the Denver Republican,
for instance. When pursued by argu-
ments and figures showing that Grant
is not the choice of the masses, it takes
fancied refuge by placing its head in
the fact that Pennsylvania has instruct
ed for Grant.
Everybody can see through the
Pennsylvania instruction business. 1t
was not 50 much for Gen. Grant as it
was for Don Cameron. Don started
in to have Pennsylvania pledged for
Grant. If he failed his political power
and prestige was broken. He there
fore made a desperate fight, conquered
an unenvlable and disastrous victory,
and leaves the masses in a bad ferment
of mind, Notwithstanding that Don
proposes to allow the Blaine delegates
to go for Blaine on the second ballot.
Many leading politicians admit
that the Grant boom has been irrepara-
bly, damaged by the bitter struggle re-
sulting from the victory Of Don Came
ron over the Blaine men.
Hence the fact of Pennsylvania being
instructed for Grant amounts to very
little; too little for a refuge and a hid
ing place. The massive rump and de-
pressed feathers of the Republican os-
trich are visible even at this distance.
Still, it imagines itself secure. Why
disturb its serenity?

Jonah and the Whale at Discount.

One pleasant summer afternoon, says
IL writer in Forest and Stream, | was
standing on the shore of a pond on Long
Island, watching the play of swallows
as they SKINNED just over the surface
of the water shortly before sunset.
About 100 yards out was bed of lily
pads; and the swallows skipped it, Occa-
sionally a good sized ripple could be
seen, and sometimes break from the
edge Indicating a fish there. This fas
tened my attention to the particular
place. | had often seen cats playing
with swallows, swOoping at them, but
the idea of fish doing the same was
something new to me. Presently saw
clean breach, and fine, large picker
ell showed his whole size and got swal-
low, too, as he disappeared beneath the
water. This | saw repeated several
times, and l called the attention of my
companion to the novel sight. While
we were thus watching we saw two
large fish break at the same swallow,
the fish coming from opposite directions
and each head on to each. Both miss
ed the swallow, but, singular to relate,
only one fish was seen to fall into the
water, duu uSibHoI WdS oOCH " pass OhO
other, Ny companion and myself look
ed with wonder. There was great
commotion in the water, with cOntin-
uous scattering, and boat being han
dy we jumped in and rowed to the spot
and picked up the largest pond picker
ell | ever saw. When we had him in
the boat the mystery was solved; the
smaller of the fish had, in his eagerness
for the swallow, jumped clear down the
larger ones throat, and only the tail to
the extent of about an inch showed.
The large fish was completely rent
asunder and killed by the catastrophe.
Both together weighed % pounds.
