How TO KEEP A HUSBAND AT HOME.
-" Julia writes us long letter ask
ing how she can keep her husband
homo nights. She says she has done
everything she can think of to please
him, but he will insist on leaving her
alone each evening. We fear Julia
doesn't make her husbands home
pleasant for him, or he would certainly
not go away. Now, Julia, you 60
down town to-day and buy a key of
beer, placing it in one corner of the
dining room. Strew sawdust over the
floor, and put half dozen coarse,
wooden boxes about the room for spit
toens. Hang sheet across one end of
the room, invite half q dozen of your
husbands male friends to spend the
evening. Then, Julia, you and your
servant dress yourself up in long
stockings and pight-dresses, and when
your friends have assembled with their
cigars pull aside the sheet you have
previously hung up and skip from one
side of the room to the other on the
tips Of your toes, singing, Ira la Ia
le!' and jumping as high as you can at
every third step. This will prove a
highly interesting exercise for yourself
and servant, and prevent your husband
from staying away. If your husbands
male friends are married, invite their
wives to assist you in the evenings en-
tertainment. If this doesn't keep him
at home evenings, you'd better trade
him Off for a yellow dog, and keep the
dog chained up.-OH Civ Derrick.

pursued in the star-route cases there could
be no convictions. That is TO say, ifmen

The Solid South in the Senate.

On the 7th of ofNovember, one week from
to-day, the term Of Postmaster Wilson, of
Lynchburg, Va, would have expired, and,
as he would then have served twelve
years, he could not have complained of
persecution or prescription if the Presi-
dent had seen fit to appoint new man.
But the Post-Onice Department had re-
ccived from special agent report that
Wilson had, between quartcr-days, failed
TO keep the Government funds separate
from his own, and, although he settled on
uuarter-day, he had violated the law
meanwhile by the irregularity mentioned,
and it was not his first ohense.
Upon this showing the President nomi-
mated Mr. Strathan to be postmaster of
Lynchburg in place of Wilson, TO be re-
moved for cause. II is understood that
General Malone recommended Mr.. STRAIT
han. His colleague, Senator Johnston,
became the champion of Mr. Wilson, who
is said to have been anxious to retire.
Mr.. Wilson is wounded eX-Union
soldier, and has always been one of the
strictest sect of the Republicans He is
of Northern birth. He is probably a
man of honest and upright intentions,
but violated the law in the respect men,
toned above. No loss came TO the Gov
ernmcnt, but that was because he was
able to make his quarterly settlements
after having treated his own and the pub
lie money as one common fund.
Despite Mr.. Wilson's disnclination tc
make struggle under these circum
stances, the Bourbon Senators, under Sen
ator Johnston's lead, not only objected tc
the confirmation, but Glibustered over it
They demanded TO know the cause. The
official report against Wilson was pro-
duced, and no fact therein was contro
verted Still they bitterly opposed the
change.
If President Arthur had appointed q
good Bourbon Democrat, or an equally
useful Republican assistant Bourbon
Democrat, and if there had been an op
position by General Malone, aided by tho
Republican Senators, we should have
heard no end of complaints on the Demo
cratic side that the Republicans wer,
trying to keep Radical carpet-bag THE
in office. They would have had nc
ground for the last epithet, but the irregu
larity not denied would have furnished
them all the basis they wanted. Afte
the Administration Senators had insisted
upon the confirmation long enough tc
give the Bourbons the necessary amount
of rope with which to hang themselves
politically, the case was allowed to drop
for the reason that the President coulc
suspend Wilson for the remaining weel
of his term without the consent of tn
Senate, and could place the post-ofIice i
