Lorenzo DelmOnicO.

Fifty years ago poor Swiss boy came to
this country and joined two relatives of his
in an humble pastry shop in New York. At
| first their business was not prosperous, but
when. with unusual shrewdness, the boy
urged that some attention should be given
to good cooking the business began to grow,
until now the name Of the boy is known the
world over far more than that OF many
statesman. poet or warrior. and a few days
ago, when he died, the papers of the me-
tropolis gave more space to an account of
the life OF Lorenzo Delmonico than to the
majority of the noted dead for the year.
| But this was not ALL What is of more
striking interest is the fact that the great
caterer left fortune of 81, 600. 900. not to

ImpOrtant Discovery.
THIRTY ROYAL MUMMIEs FOUND NEAR
THEbEs.

The details which our Cairo correspondent
furnishes of the extraordinary discovery Of
royal mummies and papyri in the cliffs Of the
Thebais add to the wonder his first account
excited No archaeological deposits on the
same scale have been disinterred since Sir
Henry Layard revealed the glories of Nineveh.
In mere quantity the antiquities thus suddenly
brought to light must awaken admiration even
in an age which within the compass Of single
lifetime has uncovered more material relics
of the buried past than a thousand years
which preceded it.
The present generation, whatever Il may
have created or failed to create for the in
structon of the future, has been singularly
industrious and successful in gathering to-
gether the fragments of its remote ancestors.
From Signor Belzoni to NJ. Mariette an un-
broken line of explorers has been compiling
the sepulchral register of Egyptian grandeur.
Ninevah and Babylon have, by the resolute
skill and intuition of Sir Henry Layard and
the interchangeable courage and unselhshness
of Mr.. Rassam, resumed their place in the
annals Of human progress. As the abundance
and magnificence of this recent addition to
the riches Of Egyptology become more man.
ifest, a regret will intrude that no equal prize
has rewarded the Hellenic or Roman explor-
er. The artistic discoveries at Halicarnas-
sus. at Ephesus, at Olympus and elsewhere
in Greece and Asia Minor, those at Ostis, in
the Forum, at Pompeii, and At Herculaneum
are of an Importance which cannot be over
| estimated.
They exceed in artistic value the discover
les of Egyption Thebes. The Egyption an
tiquities, however, have much more than an
artistic value. They expose the course and
features Of Egyption life and thought as
vivid, "a they could have been displayed by
art and literature to ancient Egyptions them
selves. So far as ancient Egypt had litera-
ture. it probably is fully and perfectly ex-
emplified in the relics so bountifully dis
tributed among European museums. For
the facts of history, for the actual conclusions
even of the spiritual operations Of the mind.
no records could be more satisfying than those
the Pharoahs have bequeathed to the modern
world. In them the modern intelligence
labored. Could the stroke Of pick4xe at
Herculaneum break m entrance into some
poor book cupboard of . lettered Roman,
new kingdoms might be Illuminated in the

What the Democratic Organ of the
Second District Says.

The following items clipped from the Lew
iston Gazette, the leading democratic paper
of the Second district, give an idea how the
straight democrats feel about the result in
that district.
We respectfully invite the Argus to take a
back seat-and stay there.

tie hint of last Mondays election and stop
poking its greenback nose into Second Dis
trict democratic affairs.

left of them. learn the lesson of Monday
5000 republican ma ajority, that the democra-
cy of Maine cannot be dictated to, it will
not be given in vain.

Mondays election teaches democratic poll
ticians of the Argus stripe that they cannot

principles; that the masses of a party, the
men who have no ether object in political
action than to see the right prevail and prin-

low everything on the 'anything to beat
platform; that such platform has no power
