EDITORIAL NOTES.

Miss Kate Field is authority for
the statcmcft that there Is but one
portrait of George Eliot in the world
"A crayon in the possession of the
Blackwt DDS of Edinburgh. Ii is the
work Of Lawrence to whom Thacke-
raw once sat. Ii Is fact that nobody
has ever seen = portrait of George
Eliot in any of the books or prints.
and this, when brought to mind, will
appear not only singular but quite
exceptional when the large place
the novelist occupied in public is
considered.
While the English. Austrian and
our government are discussing Arc
tie expeditions. Italy has turned her
eyes in another direction and pro-
poses 10 send an expedition to the
Antarctic continent. The explorers
so far have done but little in this
direction. and il has been the gen.
eral belief that no vessel could pene-
trate around the ice and snow OF
this southern land, The temperature
ofwhich is much more severe than
that of the Arctic circle. A few
years ago, hOweYer,.it was discover
ed that this failure was largely due to
the fact that the wrong point and the
wrong time of the year had been
chosen by most OF the expeditions
1t was found that by followieg the
warm Mozambique current south
ward, the explorer could easily pene-
trate into regions where former
navigators had reported frozen
masses piled in impregnable gran
deur. The Italian government hopes
to profit by these failures and to
bring back some account for the con-
tinent surrounding the South pole
and which is nearly as large as South
America.

THE Chattanooga Times in cor
recting statements about Judge
VIM. B. Woo is, tells that before the
war he was q stalwart Democrat,
and was Democratic Speaker of the
House Of Representatives; that he
is of Virginia stock, and born in
Kentucky. He entered the war as
Lieutenant-C Colonel of the 18th
Ohio infantry, and distinguished
himself as brigade commander at
Arkansas Bluff, in short, sharp
and bloody charge which especially
made him brigadier. He closed
out his Ohio interests at the end of
the war, and settled quietly down
to planting in Alabama, becoming
the owner of large plantation. He
was made Chancellor of that state,
without struggle on his part, and
especially because he was preferred
by ex-Confederate lawyers.

THREE hundred and forty-four
failures were reported in New York
city in 1880, in which the aggregate
liabilities were S19,29l ,5S2, assets
valued at $s,146,291, While the
gross liabilities are in round num-
bers $2.9OO,OOO greater than in the
preceding year, the number of fail
ures is 20 per cent. less, and is the
smallest since the panic of 1873. In
1879 there were AGO failures, with
liabilities SIG, 1884, 900 and assets So
10000. One reason for the increase
in liabilities is the failure of several
firms in the coffee, cigar, grocery
and iron trades, eight failures in
these trades having liabilities to the
amount of 1896, 7O1, or more than
one-half the total failures of the
year. There were four failures in
which the liabilities exceeded ST.
100000 each; four with liabilities
between 100000 and $1.00n,000;
five with liabilities between 100000
and 100000; nine with liabilities
between 100000 and 100000; fif-
teen with liabilities between $4,000
and 100000, and 8O7 of which the
liabilities were less than $4,000.

THE United States government
has a pretty considerable maturing
debt to provide for in February. No
less than 1857 $4,000 of its obliga-
tions fall due about that time, and
one-third of which is in per cent.
and two-thirds in per cent. bonds.
Secretary Sherman proposes that
these shall be redeemed with bonds,
half of them bearing 5 and the other
half S.65 per cent. interest. The
Wood funding bill proposes that
two-thirds ofthe new loan to redeem
these maturing bonds shall bear 8
per cent. and one-third 81 per cent
interest, redeemable at the end OF
twenty and ten years, respectively
The Buckner and Kelly substitutes
chiefly look to the keeping of the
debt within the power ofthe govern
ment to pay it, and calls for treasury
notes, redeemable at the pleasure oil
the government, instead of for long
term bonds.

THE Washington Star says, that
during 1879 the people of France
paid to the United States for pro-
ducts the sum of $143,OOO,OOO. This
was the largest trade France gave to
any country IN that year, her pur-
chases from England declining to
S120,0O0,000. While our country
stood first on the list as to selling to
France we were fourth in buying her
products, and this fact has inspired
the French with a purpose TO make
this trade reciprocal or to cut off our
enormous profits. In other words,
the debates in the French Assembly
indicate that unless the United
States consents to make a trade
treaty or to modify our tariff, France
will impose so high duty upon our
products as to, at least, partially pro-
hibit their importation into that
country. Already very heavy tax has
been imposed upon petroleum, and
France would no doubt be glad to
tax our breadstuffs in the same way,
only that the result would be TO
make the staff of life dearer to the
French consumer.

THE Spectator says that the Ger
man government is daily becoming
more oppressive: Freedom of the
press has never existed either in the
empire or its component states, but
freedom of thought and of the ex-
preston Of thought in books has al
ways been the boast of Germans
Lately, however, the Berlin police
warned the book sellers that they
were instructed to seize all copies of
4 poem forty years old, because it
contained an onslaught on the Prus-
sian kings. This was no less n work
than IIeine's "Schloss Legende."
which is TO DE suppressed, even
when the seizure of the volume
spoils an entire edition of his works.
This is as if the English police
seized every copy of "Junius" or of
a collection OF Jacobite songs, and
is the longest step backward yet
taken even by Prince Bismarck.
There is something about such an
act indescribably insulting to such a
people as he governs, and which he
will not trust even with literature a
generation old"

JUDGE GARRETsoN, lately sus
pended criminal proceedings against
Jersey City rough, desperate and
penitentiary bird on condition that
he would at once take the road to
New Orleans and stay away from
his old haunts. Probably this rascal
may turn up in Texas, and when
he commits some lawless act here,
Northern papers will tell about the
bad acts of Texan. 1t is to such
loose dispensation of justice as that
dealt out by this Judge Garretson
that the Southwest is made the
refuge of so many lawless men.
Jim Currie and Abe Rothschild,
whose deeds have damaged Texas
so much, are Northern men, both of
whom made Texas place of convC n
fence for committing most fearful
crimes.
