Sex Development in Nature.

The sentimental pretensions put
forward by political school which
holds that woman is intellectually the
equal OF man, give q character of
actuRllty to the question of the COM
parison of the sexes. This question,
which it has been the custom 10 treat
in metaphysical point OF view, is to
as purely anthropslogical, or rather
Geological; for We propose to show by
characteristic examples borrowed
from the whole animal kingdom that
sexuality undergoes the same eyolu-
ton in all species. The female
surpasses the male in certain interior
species. The males are smaller than
the females among many oephalo-
pods, and amsng come oirripeds.
With few exceptions, the superb
ority of the females prevails among
the snnelids, and among cersain
Grticulates, ss bes', hornets, Wasps;
and female butterflies are larger and
heavier than males, a difference being
observable even among the Larvae.
A like superiority OF females may be
observed in many fishes, as in the
cyprinoids, and in reptiles. This is,
however, 40 longer the case among
the superior vertebrAtes. The male
OF birds and mammals are nearly
always superior to the femsles.s
To sum up the two sexes, at first
unequal in consequence of the superb
oritY OF the female over the male
chsracterizing the lowest species, be-
come equal among species a little
more elevated in the animal scale,
and become unequal sgsin in conse-
quence of the pre-. emipence of the
male over the female, which is OBJ.
served in all the higher species. The
OF the female, is, then,
the first term OF the evolution which
sexuality undergoes, while the 81.
premscy of the male lie the last term.

Three Great Railway Stations
in London.

The coStliness of the works that
are needed for the enlargement from
time to time of the railway stations
in great towns is indefinitely
known. But when it is stated that
in eighteen months additions to
three great stations, the London and
Northwestern Railway has ex-
pended e6OO,000,the popular opinion
of the greatness of the expense will
be found to be confirmed. From
the beginning of 1880 to the end OF
the last half year-in eighteen
months, that iS-the London and
Northwestern Railway Company
spent on additional accommodation
at it's London stations $4,000; in
the same period on additional ac-
cOmmodatiOn at its Liverpool sta
ton it expended e223,400; and on
additional accommodation at its
Manchester stations it spent the
large sum of e324,000, SO that the
amount above named was slightly
exceeded. For land and cOmpenSa-
ton at London $4,000 were pa d in
the eighteen months; at Liverpool
the sums paid were e82,S00. and at
Manchester the lands and cUmpen-
sation charges amounted TO e177,-
900, the remainder Of the payment
in each case being for work and Ell
cheering. These great enlarge
menJs and improvements to the sta
ito IS concerned have been for some
time and still are in progress, ana
thus it may be taken that the large
sums that have been named are a
portion only of the total cost. Dur
ing the last few years the develop
ment of passenger traffic on the rail-
ways has been great, and very nal
urally the accommodation for them
has needed enlarging. When near a
railway station masses Of buildings
are allowed to rise-ahutting, that Is.
on the line-it is almost certain That
the Company, which ought TO have
bought and kept the land, will have
to pay for land and buildings, and it
is to this thai he largeneSs of the
sums that have to be paid Is due.
The London and Northwestern
Railway Company, however, chose
it's time wisely for the needful pur-
chases, for land and property were
never likely TO be lower than Choy
now are,and hence its purchases, ARE
probably less than they would have
been had they delayed them. 1t may
be expected thai other companies
will now follow the example, and it
is possible that at The great towns
and ports something viii Lave to be
done in the duplication Of lines,and
in the increase OF siding accOmmO-
dation. so that the liability Of acct
dentMay be lurther decreased. AL
indications point to enlarged trade,
and for this the great companies
vii need to prepare.-LondoR En-

ALASKA,
Her Petition for q Territorial
6OveFnmenJ.


New York, THE Times Washing
ton correspondent says: A determined
effort will be made atlthis session of Con-
gress to provide for Alaska some form of
government, It is probable that all that
is needed for Alaska would have been
given by the last Congress if those who
claimed to represent the residents of that
country had been reasonably moderate
IN their requests, Alaska should have
courts OF justice and a record This cen
be supplied, but it would be absurd
to establish, in that region where
there are less than 500 white residents,
the costly and elaborate system of terri
tOrial goVernm mt, such as was provided
in the bill introduced by Senator Butler
last winter. The gentleman whe has
for two or three years urged Congress to
provide for Alaska, A. NJ. Ball, Ia Vir-
ginlanl who was not long ago collector Of
customs In Alaska, il already before the
present Coagre's and he comes now in
The guise of delegate. A petition has
been presented in the Senate and with
This petition Ball offers proofs Of his cleo
ton as delegate from Alaska, and asks
that he shall be acknowledged and ad-
mitted 10 the House of Repre-
sentatives like the delegates of
legally organized western territories.
1t is shown In this petition that mass
meeting, although the number of attend
ants could hardly warrant the use of this
name, was held in Harrisburg, Alaska,
on January 4th, 'S1, and in response to
call, issued by this meeting, the resi-
dents of Southeastern Alaska met 10
primary assembly in their several settle
ments aud elected delegates to general
convention. This convention was held
on August Is, '8I, and it provided for a
general election, TO be held on September
5th. At this election only S04 votes we're
cast. of which Ball received 246. Upon
strength of this election be now asks ad-
mission to the House as a territorial
delegate. Those who ask that complete
and very expensive system of territorial
government shall be set up in Alaska.
such was contemplated initbe Butler bill,
only delay thereby. the bestowsl upon
that country Of the simple provisions
which are really needed. If Ball would
undoubtedly be Of great service TO his
friends in Alaska, he would not ask so
much more than Alaska caa expect to
receive. Why Ball should petition the
Senate to give him admission 10 the
House as delegate, is something that
it would be difficult to explain.

GARFIELD AND CoNKIINa.

The contest now going on Ill the United
 States Senate between the President and the New York Senator Is one of deeper sig nitcance than appears to thecasual observer. It Is whether the Constitution shall be over ridden by allowing the Senate to be the ap- pointing power, instead of the President, in whom 1t is lodged, by that instrument. The rule of Senatorial courtesy" IS an innova- ton of modern times, and, unless checked, will soon end in an oligarchy-the worst of all despctisms. Senatorial courtesy" simply means that when the President sends i'll a name for confirmation, if the Senators from that state where the offices to to be filled object, then the Senate Is to reject. The fitness or capabiIity of the appointee has nothing to do with the matter. The whim, caprice or enmity of single Senator, to the person whose name Is sent to that body, Is all that IS necessary, under this ''courtesy" rule. But in the present controversy as to Judge Robertsons nomination, Mir. Conk- hug goes even beyond the ''conrtesy" rule. He claims that he should have been con- suited, before hand, as to who should be nominated for Collector of the Port of New York-that 1t was an act of bad faith, on the part of the President, to nominate Judge Robertson without consulting the New York Senator That 1t was an infringement of Senatorial prerogatives-an encroachment upon, and disregard of the rights and privi- leges of the Senate, as a coordinate branch of the government. Such high pretentions for that body, was never before seriously entertained, and the constitution no where sanctions such lofty demands. It IS simply the outgrowth, or fruit, of the Senatorial courtesy doctrine, which was first elimina- ted during the incumbency of the Presiden- tial office by Andrew Johnson. And now the real contest Is, whether the President shall be the appointing power, or whether he shall be simply the recorder of the edicts of the Senate.
 That the President may win, and bring the government back to where it was, before Johnsons time, and where the constitution places 1t, Is the earnest wish of all true Re publicans, and Democrats as well.
 Since the above was written the telegraph has flashed the news across the continent that the two New York Senators have re- signed their seats in the United States Sen ate If true, It is a consumation of the wishes of the better portion of the people of the United States. The Senate is nd of a quarrelsome marplot and the country of a Iractious, inperious and dangerous man. It also foreshadows return of the govern ment to the practices of the better days of the Republic and in conformity to the let ter and spirit of the constitution.
 The senior Senator of New York has dug his political grave. Vale. Roscoe Conkling.

About Bed Bugs.

Before Prescott became the champion city for the cultivation of fine blooied bel i-bugs Boise City wore the bill IL IS related that m io6S a traveller arrived at the Overhaul Hotel and VAS proceeding to register his name. when lean looking bed-bug crawled across the page. The man stepped back and remarked tO the landlord that he had been sucked by Omaha mosquitoes, bled by St. Joe fieas, bitten by Kansas City spiders and in terviewed by Salt Lake lice, but Il be alarmed said he If I was ever in place before where the bed-bugs looked over the hotel register to find out the number of fellows room.
 A western editor writes as follows on the same subject
 The other evening, m our private crib, there was a learned dissertation on the sub lect of 'bed-bugs and their remarkable te- naci'y of life.
 One asserted of his own knowledge that they could be boiled and then come to life.
 Some had soaked them for hours in tur- pentine without any fatal consequences.
 Old Hanks, who had been listening as an cut sider. here gave in his experience in corroboration of the facts Says he
 "Some years ago took bed-bug to an iron foundry, and dropped 1t into a ladle where the melted iron was, and had 1t run into skillet.
 Well, my old woman used that skillet for the last six years, and here the other day s,h- broke 1t all to smash; and what do you think. gen,lemeul that ere insect walked out of hls hole, wherz he'd been layin' like frog m a rock, and made tracks for his oi& roost up stairs.
