PROPITIOUS PROMISE.
The Skies are Bright once Again.

Last week, for five days, from Tues
day morning until sunset Of Saturday,
not a ray Of sunshine favored this To-
cality, an incident previously un-
known to the Oldest inhabitant.
Business was clogged by the un-
favorable character of the ele-
ments, the roads became
loblolly holes, wholly impaysaSle,
the steamers could not run to do any
good, and no cotton could be hauled
to the banks for shipment. Gloom
reigned in business circles generally,
while people scowled and looked as
black as the clouds that hung lowering
aloft.
All is changed to-day, however.
The sun rose bright and clear. A
heavy white frost covered every
thing out of doors. You could
scrape it up by the handful on fence
tops and all grass plots were thick
with the frosty coat. 1t is the first
real killing frost we have had here
abouts.
For an hour or SO in the early hours
a dense, impenetrable fog envelOped
the city, but the sun soon drove it off
and the prospect became bright as the
hours for business opened.
There came news that the upper
rivers are swelling and navigation in
the Ohio is about to be reopened. The
Cumberland is rising rapidly with
eight or ten feet in its channel and
this morning news came that the Ohio
at Pittsburg is over eight feet deep
with the water still climbing upward.
This is enough to let a coal feet out to
replenish short stocks at points below,
where they are short. At the same time
it insures good business water
for boats in the lower Ohio river. As
a result the decks of steamers of the
Memphis and Cincinnati line, now
lying at this port, the James D.
Parker and the James w. Gaf, at
once became a busy scene. Captain
Deem, of the Parker, at once prepared
to drop his craft down to the landing
for action, and will load up TO leave
for the Ohio tomorrow evening.
Capt. Wise's boat, the Gaff, will fol-
low on Thursday. Both have full
cargoes of cotton engaged, and this fine
and popular line of vessels will now
move with their accustomed precision.
Regarding the weather prospects
for the remainder of to day,
the signal service indications re-
port clear or fair weather
for this section until Tuesday even
ing. 1t is stormy to-day up on the
lakes about Cleveland, Toledo and
Buffalo, and the temperature here this
morning dropped below 81 degrees, and
Nashville had it several degrees cold
er. The temperature was below the
frost point for more than two hundred
miles south of this, and it was foggy at
Chattanooga, Yicksburg, Nashville and
other points, while light rain fell in
south Texas.

were sentenced, we believe, to two years I'M
prisonment. This is mere trlt1ng. 1t
amounts to positive encouragement 1or tue
practice Of abortion. What Is needed IS
hangtng. The law provides the extreme
penalty in every case where the death OF the
mother results from the crime, and, as rule
1t is only such cases that come into court
The hanging of one or two abort1onists
would make the regular vocation OF abortion
ist as rare as that of the professional and
hired assassin.
The cases now before the public offer an
excellent opportunity for mauguratlng
strfcter enforcement of the law against abor-
ton. Each case has been brought to the
notice Of the authorities through the death
of the mother. In both the crime has been
committed for sordid motives, so far rs tho
pretended "doctors" are concerned. In
both, too, so far as the Coroner's inQuests
have revealed, the evidence Is unusually
clear and pointed. Both mothers met their
death under circumstances that arc exciu-
sive OF every theory of justifiable abortion
and conclusive Of the most criminal intent
and tho worst results of the act. Let the
law be invoked, then, to Its utmost limit. II
Earll and Cream bo the guilty persons, as
seems to be the case from all the evidence at
hand, let them hang! This is the surest
remedy against the prevalence Of abortion as
a practice.

THE little Courthouse at NicholasVl1le,

ccmbcr, he was Interrupted by SEN
ator Voorhees,, the counsel for the de"
Tense. who pronounced statement made
by Dronston untrue. The latter repeated
thfs statement, and Voorhees, again said it was
untrue, 4 third time WIS tho statement madc'
to be again contradicted, and yet the Judge
Duckuer} never interfercd Suddenly there WIS
a uolso in tho courtroom, which was tiled with
the partisans of Arnold and Of Little. A man
sprang forward with pistol in bis hand ana
with an angry inprccaton attempted to shoot
Mr. Brouston. Fortunately the excited nun,
Arnoid's brother, had not cooked his pistol,
and after q struggle with the officers or tho
Court ho was disar1ned. During the excite
ment, which was intense, the prisoner, with
his wife. was showed into the Jurors
room, as it was feared that tho inflamed parti-
SIMS OF Little would lay violent hands on him.
When his brother was arrested and taken be-
low he returned to the courtroom, accom-
panied by his wife, who sat On bis Knee and
refused to be separated from him. Arnold YVES

It is not to be denied that down among the
mass Of Democratic voters, those who follow
honest empIoyments, and live upon their own
earnings, and want no Offices, there is
strong protest against Mike Mcdonald as
the representative and .cAief of the Demo-
cratic party. But among the Democratic
politicians, the men IN high offices OF who
follow politics for a business, among the ex-.
Generals, ex-Colonels, ex-Majors, ex-Goyern-
ors, ex-Judges, and ex-honorables Of al
ranks and degrees, the protest against the
leadership of Mcdonald is too weak to find
expression. The only feeble whisper Of dis
content was, as wo have seen, overwhelmed
by the storm Of yindicatlon at the Palmer
House. There is not a man in the Demo-
cratic party, from Judge Tr,mbull, the can
didate for Governor, to Mayor Harrison, who
has the courage to openly revolt against and
repudiate the leadership of Mike h1cDonald,
and so the Democratic party Of Chicago
becomes more and more, day after day. the
personal property Of the "Boss." Even
those who cry out the loudest against what
they call the disgrace stand with uncovered
heads and in silence when Mike orders con-
ventions, appoints delegates, nominates
candidates, and requires them all, on their
allegiance, to vote the whole Democratic
ticket. It is not surprising, therefore, that
the criminal population, the keepers OF
gaming houses, the proprietors Of dens for
receiving stolen goods, all Of whom are under
the protection of Mcdonald, find under
Democratic government In Chicago q tolera-
ton and freedom from disturbance un-
known elsewhere. To dethrone Mcdonald
from his Dossship Of the Democratic party
of Chicago would be followed by the defeat
Of every Democratic candidate for office, and
Mayor Harrison and his associates are not
prepared for such sacrifice rs that, even to
win the applause Of the whole community.

Of 1850 If these light objects could sink,
does any one pretend to claim that al ele-
phant could cross such places III safety, es-
necially when it is remembered that Fowler
street was very remote in those days, anu
probably had no signal OF danger posted:
The various strata In which these bones
have been found are thus defined Dy the
scientists:
Modern soil, SIX inches.
Peat 9 ind muck, four feet; nnastodon; trunks OF
trees gsassi m9si ;,ete'ar etc. ote dcpth
Quicksand, irregular depth.
They find that the bones lie about thirteen
feet below the surface. We propose to snow
that they are mistaken, and, like all other
scientists, have made a fatal error in their
calculations by reasoning from generalities-
That is, they assume the general conditions
Of the Chicago strata without any reference
to the great principle Of gradual accretlons,
with which Nature has nothing to do, and
then reason direct to this particular 1nasto-
don, or more probably elephant and locate
him III peat or muck twelve feet six inches
below the abnormal soil, when in reality he
is in no such strata, but is probably resting
very near the original surface. The thirteen
feet of superintendent earth is very easily
accounted for when one considers the prll-
ciple of municipal accretion and the gradual
but sure ascent Of grades since lS3o. When
the old citizens elephant was mired.. Tho
real classification of strata between the pres
ent pavement and the original soil Of 1850 IS
nearly as follows:
Present pavement, one foot.
Debris OF the fire, four feet
Tin-cans, old hats, hoop-skirts- ETC., oEe foot:
Old pAycu1ents, four feet.
Municipal Filings and refuse OF the nelgnoor-
hood. two feet.
Natures swales and accretions- one foot
Which makes a total Of thirteen feet, and
brings us directly to the restins-p1ace OF the
supposititious mastodon, or more probably the
elephant that belonged to the circus, coming
into the city via the West Side, as circuses
always came in those days.
We throw out these hints as matters for
consideration by the Academy. AS there is
no money in the City Treasury with which
to continue the excavation, the Academy
should prosecute the work from its private
funds. II it proves to be an elephant they
should manfully acknowledge it. II it be
mastodon, then they must show how a mas
todon happened to be on Fowler street about
the time it was laid out and was contempt
rancous with the Administration Of Mayor
Curtiss.
