JAMES RUSSELL LOWELL has spoken
many splendid sentiments. These words
from his address at the Garfield memorial
meeting in London, are of his best. "The
dignity, the patience, the self-restraint, the
thoughtfulness for others, the serene valor
which he showed under circumstances so
disheartening, and amid the wreck of hopes
so splendid, are possession and a stimulus
to his countrymen forever. The emulation
of examples like his makes nations great,
and keeps them so. The soil out of which
such men as he are made is good to be born
on, good to live on, good to die for and to be
buried in.n

at have been watching the star called the
Winking Demon" said the astronomer, as he
extended his hand to pull the reporter up on
the roof. "These Autumn mornings are lit
tie chilly, but the air is so deliciousy pure and
clear that one doesn't mind il it bites little.
Besides, it is worth the risk Of taking cold to
see the Demon wink. You are just in time to
watch him as he gradually reopens his eye. Ii
you had come few minutes earlier you might
have seen him shut it,"
"Where is this remarkable demon stsr?''
"There, almost overhead at this hour. IL
YOU want to point him out to your friends you
have only to observe that he is a little south of
that bending row of stars that marks the con-
stellation Perseus, aud that there is a little
group of smaller stars near him. Now, you
see, his light pretty faint. but not so faint as
it was few moments ago. In three or four
hours his eye will be wide open again, and he
will shine as a star of the first magnitude.
These winkings OF Algol, or the Demon, occur
a little oftener than once in three days"
"What causes themY
"Ah, now you come to the strangest thing OF
all. Is there anything in the appearance of
the sky, all glittering with stars, that suggests
to your mind that it may be vast cemetery7

THE Mints were kept actively at work
during the month of September. The gold
coinage was entirely of eagles and half ca
giles. in pursuance of the policy of the Di-
rector to favor the smaller pieces rather
than the double eagles. Of the eagles there
were made S2.6S00OO worth, and of the
half eagles 50, ,7S5, 900. There were struck
during the month 3,23O,0 one-cent pieces
to meet the increasing demand for this coin,
which is running now from 81 200 to 81 500
worth day. There were struck 2,400, 900
silver dollars. The total coinage for the
month of all pieces was 81. 300.

about fusion in the hope of electing the

PHILADELPHIA Press: Mr.. Blaine may
always be relied upon to do the
right thing at the right time. In
two National Conventions his honorable am
bition, fostered by large element Of the
Republican party, had been baked. Presi-
dent Garfield's tender of the Secretaryship
Of State came, and behold the broad minded,
patriotic mood in which it found the bril-
liant leader! The kindness, dignity, unre-
served sympathy, and loyal devotion of that
letter of acceptance, written with no thought
that it would ever reach the world, will
challenge the generous admiration of every
man who can appreciate true nobility Of
character. Mr.. Blaine not only pledged all
that he was and all that he hoped to be to
the official for the term of his election; but
in terms that must have touched so sensitive
a nature as President Garfields, he gave his
heart to the man and declared that the bril-
liant success of his first term must win him
a second. For friendships sake, for party's
sake. and for country's sake James G.
Blaine. the strong leader of men and idol of
an immense following, voluntarily merged
his own hopes and interests in those of his
chief. There is not such another example
of l.nselfish friendship and loyalty on record.

That Yorktown Celebration

The Argus discovered Yesterday that
there is to be, next Wed dnesday, celebra-
ton of the surrender of Lord CORVALLIS
and bis army at Yorktown hundred years
ago, and declares, in type both bold and
big, thatthe people of Maine want to be
represented there. If they do they have
been very modest in making the want
knoan. The Argus has been reticent even
beyond its wont. 1t said nothing in favor of
tue appropriation while the Legislature was
in session, and it was silent while the
Cou Gil was considering the question. Now
and when it is too late to do anything, the
cid and unreliable Democratic daily de-
mands that the State do something, and in
siss that the appropriation OF six hundred
dollars is entirely inadequate to properly
repr, sent Maine at the centennial OF "the
most important military event, in its far
reaching consequences to the human race,
which history has ever recorded.
Five years ago Republican administra-
tion in Maine appropriated two thousand
dollars to aid the observance of what the
Argus now calls "the placing before the
world The boldest and most perfect declara-
ton of human rights that had ever been
enunciated-a declaration that seems to
bave been destined, under Gods provi-
dence, toexert greater influence in behalf
of the welfare of nations and peoples
peoples than any proclamation ever made,
saving and excepting only the Gospel of
Jesus Christ"
For some time after the Philadelphia ex-
hibition the Argus and its comrades, Green
back and Democratic, denounced that ap-
preparation as extravagant and accused
Govert or Connor of going on junketing
tour to Pennsylvania. 1t now regrets that
the present Legislature did not give the
Fusion Governor Plaisted seven thousand
dollars to spend on a similar 'junketing

PITrsBURG DISPATCH: The rumor of Sec
retary Blaine's intended resignation is prob
ably founded upon fact. That Blaine will
90 out of the Cabinet a greater man in the
affections of the people than even when he
went into it can hardly be questioned. He
now represents something wider even than
his own individuality-he is the principal
living exponent of the Administration
which, next to that of Lincoln and of Wash
ington. is most endeared to the people.
