THERE is very encouraging bit of news
from England. The people of London are
continuing the good work of afiixing ex-
planatory tablets TO the houses of historic
interest, and the residences of many distin-
guishcd men have been recently so marked.
A mural inscription is modest and con-
venient, and it has the special advantage of
atlording so limited space for display that
bafiled ostentation retires defeated and dis
gusted, leaving the small field to discretion
and common sense. In one sad instance in
Washington house has been so stamped,
and no tribute could be moro proper or defer
ential to the memory there embalmed. Such
a recognition Is one of the most substantial
honors that can be paid to the illustrious
dead. 1t conveys in it's very existence the
proof that their lives are still held in re-
membrancc, and that the places that know
them no longer are still sought by successive
generations. These tablets furnish to the
public free and authentic lesson in history
that is more powerful than commencement
valedictOry in stimulating a noble endeavor
in young mind, or encouraging despon-
dent spirit to strive to leave n mark upon
the world in which he dwells. In another
aspect, these mural monuments are especially
to be welcomed as offering possible pr0tec-
tion against the threatened invasion of
statues. Statues arc SO expensive. SO big
and SO ugly, and then they always have to
be unveiled! 1t isso cruelty and deceitfully Y
easy to vote statue, and so dreadfully hard
to execute it, and usually such fearful dis
astcr that the general sense of the COM
munity is pretty well prepared, in case Of
any newly-prepared tribute of honor, to ex-
cain: Take any shape but that !!

THURSDAY, JUNE as, 1881.

In HIS PRoNUNcIAMENTo published in
the Philadelphia Record of last Saturday,
the Attorncy-Gencral declared that Mr..
Corkhill will soon be removed" We have
since asccrtained that the Attorney-Gcn-
erals declaration touching Mr.. Corkhill was
utterly devoid of foundation. There is not
now nor has there been, the least intention
on the part of the President to mako any
change in the Office of District Attorney.
The Attorncy-Gencral's declaration in his
pronuneiamcnto may have been based upon
the fact that Detective Gibson had ordered
to remove Mr.. Corkhill. There could be nc
other possible foundation for it.

AN INSTANCE of genuine and uncontcsted
royalty is found in the Princess Marie of
Shoa. The trifling talk of numbered quar-
terings upon coats of arms shrinks abashed
before her claims indeed, coats ofarms, and
perhaps all other coats, may be voted out of
the question. This lady boasts of blue
blood indeed, very blue blood, that she
traces backward through her royal father,
directly to that of Queen of Sheba, who
visited King Solomon. This is something
really worth having. A family tree to hang
up in the dining room showing a line of
ancestors for three thousand years may well
be displayed and the princess will probably
have dining room to put it in, for she has
been educated by a Catholic priest presum-
ably into many of the customs of our very
modern civilization, and as she has reached
the mature age of fourteen years, will be
soon married to one of the native princes.
The august father through whom tho lady
inherits her immense line of ancestors is
King Menclck of Shoa, prince of Abys-
sinia.

the other day, the Chicago papers ran in

Lane, of Oregon. This is cruelty refined
These two WORTHLESS were in the Senate
together when the war was brewing, but
old Joe Lane announced that if the Govern
ment attempted to coerce the South it
would have to brush his remains out of the
way as preliminary step. Henry had diff
ferent doctrine. These two Lanes always
diverged widely from that point, but met
at a common grave within two months of
one another.

held scene in fish-market that drama
tically presented the case in point. A fish
wife, big and bouncing was calling Justify
for policeman to defend her from barrel
organ. The musician had planted himself
beside her STALL and no cntrcatics would
move him. He was dark and slight the
fish-wife could have annihiated him with
her fair fists, but she was too chivalrous to
attack so small chap. The absurdity of
the situation struck her; she apQlogized to
the market at large with a laughing protest:
:" OF course | can stand most things, and hold
my own with anybody with my tongue, but

policeman came to the rescue, and the fish

was anything " too much for her." gave the

QUEBEC has had another fire that burned
down a good many residences, and created
one of the panics that they seem to be
rather proud of in that town. Under this
stimulation the citizens, awakened thor
Ougly to the condition of things, are consid-
ering the best manner of organizing an OPP
position to an additional tax, proposed
as means of supplying new
system of waterworks. They really
seem to have strong objections to that com

reason that Mother Shipton found so many
converts in the locality.

THE FIGHT at Marseillcs is described rs %
very ugly scrimnage. Tho rioters did not
mass themselves in opposition and meet
squarely, as they do in this country, max
ing kind of IriAi row in which the op-
ponents stand face to face, and while pro-
ducing u great deal of noise contrive to do
very little harm. These rare events with
us are rather regarded us Il forcible demor-
stration of opinion and an emphatic OK
preston of some public objection than as Il
personal conflict between enemies, and the
casualties resulting bear very small pro-
portion to the ntsnber of rioters engaged.
In Marseilles the job was conducted on very
different principles Particular individuals
were singled out as obnoxious and pursued
to determination in the fierce fashion of Il
personal enmity rather than in ncighborly
interchange of Il free-hght. The number of
victims is considerable, and the Italians are
already anxiousy defending themselves
against the charge of having used the ma
tional stiletto rather too freely.

"A CANADIAN astronomer" too modest
as yet to give his name to the anxious
world, has become emulous of the fame of
Vennor and predicts by telegraph that the
month of July is to be excessively hot"
This anonymous prophet says that the ex-
cessively hot weather of July is to be caused
by ga return of heated air from the equa-
torial regions whittier, we presume, it
has been driven by the prevailing polar
wave. Our advice to the public is to look
out for plenty of this class of predictions
during the next ten days. 1t should be
borne in mind that there is a good deal OF
money invested in what are called summer
resorts in this country, and that the invest.
ors thereof have been sorely troubled by
Prof Vennor's prediction that the coming
summer was to be cooler than the average
with abundance Of rain, state of thing
calculated to prevent overcrOwding of sum
mer resort accommodations. The natum
inference from all these things would be
that syndicate of summer resort proprie
tors had been formed to pool their issues as
it were, in q fund for the purpose of sub
orning prophetic perjury against the char
acter of the month of July, with 9
vicw of course, to securing guests F" fol
taeir hotels. 1t is the duty of public
spirited newspaper to expose such dis
reputable scheme and to denounce it as q
deliberate attempt to obtain valuable con.
sidcration under false pretcnses. The al.
legged Canadian astronomer" should be
handed around.

A HEREDITARY sequence in special SER
vice is so unusual in this country that it is
reported as noteworthy that Charles For
rester, jr., who died few days ago in New
York, was member of IL post-efiice family.
His grandsire entered the New York post
office in 1908. Eighteen years later his own
son became his assistant, and still continues
in office, after more than half century OF
service, and is the survivor of his own son
who has just died, after twenty years in
the same employment. The three genera
tions have thus been in continuous position
for nearly three-quarters of century.
