to attach to figures in inflated type we go
on to state that the Commercial has resolved
itself into bank of deposit for the benefit
of such intense patriots as believe in re-
warding an old fool for o plain violation of
law The attack on Gen. Garfield has
been the occasion of moro unmitigated non
sense on the part of an otherwise sensible
nation than any sane man would have be-
lieved possible. When the deed was first
done much irrational talk and nonsense
could well be pardoned TO the excitement Of
the occurrence, but il was palpablc nonsense,
inexcusable on any ground, for Henry Wat
terson to open up violent crusade against
the Stalwarts of New York, not only intimat-
ing, but rashly charging, that they were di-
rcctly implicated in the crime. 1t was quito
as amusing, from legal standpoint, to hear
editors demanding the immediate trial Of
Guiteau on the charge of murder, regardless
of the fict whether tho President lived or
not. But the Commcrcid has at last in
vented a self-acting tomfoolcry machine,
which operates for its own amusement and
that of its readers. II seems that m on
soldier up in Licking County, Ohis, licksd
blackguard the other day for saying tasat
he wished that Garfield would die The
veteran was arrested for the assault, as he
should have been, and was fined and
mulctcd to the tune Of $32. The CONNER
cial, by way of showing its contempt for
the majesty Of the law. denounced the &C.
ton of the Justice Of the Peace as an out
rage. 1t opened penny subscription
to pay the fine Of the old soldier
and, as will be seen above, nearly $1,000 in
habitants have already responded to this
crying call. Wenow move. If we can obtain
second, that, when the fund has grown to
the size of $500, the amount bc distributed
among the employees of this highly patri-
otic sheet for purposes Of summer visiting.

The INTOLERABLE NUISANCE designa-
ted the Whitaker trial has found good
photographer in the Post Dispatch of st.
Louis 1t remarks that =" AT last we have a
trustworthy transcript of the verdict in the
case of Cadet Whitaker. The court-mar-
tial unanimously finds him guilty of self
mutilation and lying and recommends that
he be dismissed from the West Point Aca-
deny. The Judge-Advocate-G General will
confirm the verdict, and as soon as the
President is able to give the matter his at
tention Mr.. Whitaker will retire perma-
nently from military life. 1t has cost the
Government about $4,000 to demonstrate
that Whitaker haggled his own ears. The
first court that investigated him determined
that question to the satisfaction of nearly
everybody, but, being half-breed negro, it
was necessary to demonstrate that there
was no prejudice in the land against him.
1t will be in order now, we presume, for
some of the Republican newspapers that
preached with so much fervor about the
snobbish aristocracy ut West Point and the
race hostility which is said to. exist among
the cadets who are maintained there at pub.

SOCIALISM seems very hard to swallow,
at least it takes great deal Of lager to
wash it down. In one of the beer saloons
of Philadelphia, where the doctrine is
fuently expoundod, the proprietor proudly
exhibits as curiosity his album of por-
traits, which opens with the great quar-
tet-Marat, Danton, Robespierre, and st.
Just. A long procession follows of the
famous German irrepressibles, and closes
with a band of Russian Nihilists, many Of
whom are now spending the summer in
Siberia. In this goodly company of the
grand progressives the only outsiders found
worthy of Fellowship are Profs. Darwin
and Huxley, who are probably regarded as
dealers in mental and philosophical
dynamite.

There are some alleged newspapers here
in Missouri that arc very much disturbed
about the wickedness of Hartmann and the
Russian Nihilists. but when 1t comes to con-
the fcndisli and unnecessary

most remarkable degree that which John
Logan would designate us ''sang -froidness."

THERE ARE PERSONS who eat arsenic
with impunity, and others who habitually
devour hot griddle cakes for breakfast and
swallow pie for dinner, and yet live hale
and hearty to a great, if not good, old age.
In the facs of such facts, it does seem un-
worthy work for the human intellect to be
devoting itself to explorations into the
chemistry Of the kitchen, and especially
disturbing other peoples appetites by
horrible stories about the adulteration Of
food. DIR. Abernethy, who was shining
lign.. in the medical world, condensed his
large experience and great wisdom into a
single aphorism upon this subject when he

nal-bell rang and said "Go!" The cars provi-
ded were well filled, and after pleasant ride
TO Weston's, the pick nickers were surprised
by the announcement that there had been no
rain there for several days, the recent show
ers in Towanda not having reached that sub
urban locality. So the ground was " dry as
bone." The company soon scattered them
selyes over the extensive grounds, around the
tables. in the swings, by (and in) the creek,
and on the hills. Clouds appearing, hurried
the lunch, but the party were ready for it.
Bulletins foretold the weather with singular
accuracy and the party enjoyed entire immun-
ty from the showers which were falling
around them miles away-in this place and
elsewhere. AT quarter past six, the train
left for home, and then came the rain-but
the pic-nckers laughed at it from the close
cars or from under umbrellas. All got safe
ly home and felt that they had enjoyed a
pleasant day. May to-day's company be as
fortunate.
