The Indiana House of Representatives
adjourned on Tuesday to welcome ex-Speaker Col

PRIVATE DALzELL has been on a visit to
Mentor. He says the President looked wearied, but
| is apparently ignorant of the reason.
THE election of Herr Won Gosler as
president of the German Rechstag is the first time
that an official connected with the Ministry has
been chosen for the Office.
SIR THOMAS and Lady (nee Sharon) Hes
keith had rapturous reception in his ancestral
halls to which the people drew them, having taken
the horses from the carriage.
AsHMEAD BARTLErT's new wife is his
senior by only thrty-fve years. From all the fuss
that has been made about it one would suppose
that there was quite difference between their
ages.
The Rev. Petroleum V. Nasty talks of
going to Europe in spring, and the announcement
has caused quite iutter among ecclesiastical cir
cles in England. Mr.. Nasby has not quite decided
where he will preach.
Lotto roDfoi,, EroIo,;o
of Stonington, Conn, left about $4,000, and it is
said had kept most of it, consisting of bonds and
mortgages, in a small trunk in his sleeping room
for many years. He left no will.
If General Hazen makes the coming
summer as proportionately hot as the winter has
been cold he will have topack up and move to some
Indian reservation. He cannot freeze, and drown,
and cook people alternately without protest.
THE Atlanta (Ga) Constitution commends
the selection of Beverly Tucker as chairman of the
Ways and Means Committee, to fill the vacancy
caused by Mr.. Woods death. How Representative
John Randolph Tucker will like this substitution
remains to be seen.
THIRTY years ago Simon Cameron was
a resident of New Orleans, and it was under his
supervision that the canal at that city was built
He will spend some days in the city during his
Southern tour, and note the changes which have
been made in his absence.
GRACE GREENWOOD describes George
Eliot as exceedingly plain, with her aggressive
jaw and her evasive blue eyes, but as she grew in
terested and earnest in conversation great light
flashed over or out of her face till it seemed trans

something quite indescribable"

Senator Eaton,s Resolution.

The explicit declaration contained in
the following resolution offered in the
Senate on Wednesday last by Mr. Eaton,
of Connecticut, is in refreshing contrast
with the namby-pambyism reported re,
Gently in the House on the same subject
Re8olred By the Senate and House Of Representatives.
That the interests of the people of the United
States of America and the welfare and security OF
their Government are so involved in the subject
of the construction of ship canals and other
ways for the transportation of sea- going vessels
across the Isthmus connecting North and
South America that the Government of the United
States with the frankness which is due to all other
people and governments, hereby asserts that it
Will insist that its consent is necessary condition
precedent to the execution of any such project,
and also as to the rules and regulations under
which other nations shall participate in the use of
such canals or other means either in peace or in
war
If the Congress will adopt this, they
will save the Nations right to resist
hereafter the European invasion of the
Isthmus so cunningly planned for in the
innocent enterprise of NJ. de Lesseps and
his French company. Senator Eaton is a
square, direct, and honest man, who says
what he means and means what he says.
For Congress to neglect the considera-
ton and adoption of his resolution, OF of
one equally straightforward and plain,
would be TO waive the American doctrine
first announced by President Monroe.
Let us at least save our right to object to
European conquest of the Isthmus.

American or Foreign Ships.

In reply tothe arguments made recently
by several Senators, and also by the New
York Herald of the 18th instant, in behalf
of" Free Ships counter appeal is made
in behalf of the American ships by Mr.
Charles S. Hill, in pamphlet which is
before us. He has studied this subject
very thoroughly for some years, and
argues the question from an industrial
and economic point of view, looking
into the non-apparent causes of our ship
ping decadence. No resolution, says Mr..
Hill, could involve all of our industries
more than that pending amendatory of
Title 4S Revised Statutes.
A forcible presentation is made of ques-
tions under the following heads: "Our
proportionate increase in the production
of iron and coal in the last thirty years.
hence, the unreasonableness of doubt
as to our ability to rival England in iron
shipbuilding-"th the exact condition of our
merchant marine" wood and iron), "t the
causes of freight rates to and against a
special ship" the sailing ship as factor
in the carrying trade" the past and
present system of England in averaging
and adjusting losses and profits to her
great steamship companies" the fall
lacy of the plea that England supports
only lines to her possessions unless
New York is considered British posses
sion by our Senator'S" the cause of Sem
ator Herman not knowing of the thirty
per cent. tonnage tax and pilotage clauses
in our statutes" But the final exhibit
of Mr. Hill is an expose of the powerful
combination that Senator Bailey says
"strangles American ships British, pro-
lection of the exchequer and mercan-
tile marine fund, not only, but especially
the British Lloyd agents in every port of
the world, using an annual insurance of
s200,000,000 in favor of British and to the
mnriean ships. Here is the
,ial misfortune.

Medicine Vendors.

A bill has been offered in the New
York Legislature which, if passed, will
require patent medicine dealers in that
State to publish on the outside of the
bottle or package the prescription or a
list of ingredients contained within. The
object of this is to protect too credulous
public from the pretensions ofignorant and
reckless public physicians or charlatans,
as the case may be-as it stands now a
share of the public accepting them as
physicians on their own unSubstantiated
claims. It would seem that the science
of medicine may make greater progress
when this impediment is removed, for,
with more general reliance upon the
physicians judgment, it will follow that
there will be greater confidence in their
skill, enlarged practice, and more atten-
ton by them to the effects of medicine.
But as it is said that a man at thirty is
either fool or doctor, it is frequently
true that very valuable remedies are
sometimes hit upon by those outside of
the profession as the result of experience
and experiment. The public should not
be deprived of those, and will not, but by
this method all will have greater protec-
ton. The bill ought to meet with favor
in the New York and other State Legis-
latures. As the case is now 1t is crying
evil.

II Is RELATED of militia colonel who
had his raw recruits out in the fields that
the command suddenly came to a stone
fence. Here was an obstacle to be met
which was not down in the tactics and
surpassed his military knowledge to over
come; but only for moment. Calling
upon his troops to break ranks" he
added, with wink, and " in five minutes
time we will reform on the other side Of
that fence" and so the soldiers scram-
bled over the military difficulty. This
story seems apropos to the skill
shown by our genial old general in his
disposal of our irregular army of volun-
teers. They can drop in where they see
a good opening.

that covers both westward and eastward

that covers both westward and eastward
transatlantic cargoes.
The work is purely national appeal
not repeating the monotonous points ap-
parent, but giving an insight to the in
visible causes of the evil and to the falla-
cies of the humdrum theories preached
in the Halls of Congress for the last
twenty-five years. With the abolition of
slavery, and with reunion of industrial as
well as political interests, the principles
of economy in the South have changed
as much since our civil war as they did
in the period from Mr.. Calhoun's tariff
bill of 1916 to Mr.. Calhoun's free-trade
bills of 1924
And now that those alliances have
ceased, it is unjust to the South to identify
her as sympathetic with foreign capital
and foreign interests.
The South is becoming manufacturing
people and to-day stands firmly and
soundly by the side of the North, and
every act destructive to American ships,
and thereby to American industry, will
be recognized as njurious-agriculturally,
mechanically, and commercially-alike
to the North, South, East, and West.

The Funding Bill.

The Senate and House agree as to rate OF
interest, and the House will no doubt con-
eur with the Senate as to the time for the
proposed new bonds. We have an abid-
ing faith that three per cent. bond will
be eagerly taken by the people, unaided
by any syndicate. In that we include, of
course, the amount for which market is
made with the national banks as the
basis for their circulation. As to the du-
ration of the bond there is no danger,
and there will be no fear that they
will be redeemed for the next thirty years.
No lower-rate loan can be secured, and,
as we have to redeem a thousand millions
within twenty-five years, there is no
likelihood that We shall beyond that de-

Will the Senate Act

The Senate can yet do justice and show
mercy by incorporating in the river and
harbor bill an appropriation for the re-
clamation of the Potomac flats and for
the Inauguration of some plan for the inn
provement of the great water-course now
damned up by the Long Bridge. 1t
is beyond belief that when every
creek and slough in the country
is the object of an appropriation the
10000 inhabitants of the Capital must
suffer from the malarious poison exhaled
from the flats in front of the city. An
appropriation of 100000 would begin the
work. The District Committee of the
House asked for $1,25O,00O. Will not the
Senate hear the cry of a community
which is not allowed to take care of itself,
although made to pay half the cost of the
government?
